Chapter 128 Lack of Virtue



Grand Secretary?

Liu Chun was a little confused: "Why is the princess going to the Imperial Academy? And she wants to meet the Grand Secretary?"

Wen Yu said seriously: "Of course it's because I love studying, studying loves me, and studying makes me happy. If I don't study for a day, I will feel uncomfortable all over, as if my life has lost its meaning."

Liuchun: ...

Liuchun thought about it and realized that the Grand Secretaries were all respected old ministers, and the princess must not be going for the handsome man. She couldn't think of any other reason why she was so enthusiastic even though there was no handsome man, except that the princess really wanted to study.

The next afternoon, Wen Yu went out on time and went straight to the Hanlin Academy in the palace.

Ning Xuanyan had only taken the time to pour some water when he came back and Wen Yuren had disappeared.

"Aunt Liudong, where is the princess again?"

Liu Dong glanced at him and said, "Go study."

Ning Xuanyan:?

Study? Wen Yu?

These are two words that just can't be put together.

On the other side, Wen Yu had already arrived at the Hanlin Academy. It seemed that the emperor had specifically instructed her to do so. As soon as she stepped in, she was led directly to see the Grand Secretary.

The Grand Secretary had also been waiting in the courtyard for a long time. Although he was over 70 years old, he was still energetic. He bowed and said, "I pay my respects to the Princess."

Wen Yu waved her hand and said, "Take this princess to see the Grand Secretary."

The Grand Secretary was stunned: "Princess, I am right in front of you, why do you need to look for me?"

Wen Yu:?

ha? ? ?

Wen Yu stared at the old man in front of her and asked unwillingly, "Are you a university scholar?"

"That's right, my humble servant."

"How many Grand Secretaries are there in the Hanlin Academy?"

The Grand Secretary was somewhat puzzled by the question: "What do you mean, Princess? I am the only Grand Secretary in the Hanlin Academy."

Wen Yu: ...

"Okay, okay, let's play it this way, eh?"

Wen Yu has come to her senses. The emperor has tricked her!

In order to make her study, he would go to such extremes!

Use the handsome guy to seduce her!

What's "Don't worry, sister, it's handsome!"? It's obviously a trap for her. "Don't worry, sister, jump!"

At this time, the Grand Secretary bowed and said, "I am here by the imperial decree to teach the princess how to read and write."

Wen Yu looked at the university scholar's face and immediately lost interest: "I don't want to study anymore. I want to go back to sleep."

"Princess, make the best of it. Perhaps, under my guidance, you will gradually fall in love with learning."

Wen Yu shook her head repeatedly: "I can't love you, not even a little bit."

At this time, Liu Chun asked in a puzzled voice: "Princess, aren't you here to study?"

Wen Yu: ...

What a fool! He believes whatever you say.

"Please follow me into the inner room, Princess. I have prepared everything."

Wen Yu refused: "No, no, I remembered that there is still firewood left in the Princess's Mansion. I have to hurry back to burn firewood, otherwise the whole Princess's Mansion will have no hot water."

Grand Secretary:?

Wen Yu said this and turned around to run away, but she didn't expect that as soon as she stepped out of the yard, she would bump into a hard chest.

"I have offended the princess, and I deserve death!"

The man was wearing the green uniform of the Hanlin Academy, his hair was tied up high, he was holding a scroll in his hands, his eyes were round, and he was wearing a pair of ancient glasses, looking stupid.

It looks silly, just like a frightened little hamster.

"Yang Hanlin, you came at an inopportune time. All your preparations were in vain. The princess doesn't want to learn..."

"I will learn from you!"

Wen Yu immediately changed her tone: "It's just studying, what's the big deal? I love studying, and studying loves me!"

Grand Secretary:?

He stroked his beard and said, "Didn't the princess say that there was still some firewood left in the mansion?"

Wen Yu waved her hand: "Why do I need to burn the firewood myself? Just leave this matter to my maid Cui Xin."

Liuchun: ...

She glanced at Yang Hanlin and said, "Princess, you have changed too fast, haven't you?!"

"In that case, Princess, please."

The Grand Secretary led Wen Yu to the inner room, and just as the emperor had expected, a pleasing "mascot" had to be prepared before the princess could sit down and study.

The person who knows the eldest princess best is His Majesty.

After Wen Yu sat down, Yang Hanlin sat at the table in front of her.

There are only two people in such a huge school.

Wen Yu poked Yang Hanlin's back with a brush and couldn't help but teasing, "Your name is quite suitable for this Hanlin Academy."

Yang Hanlin was stunned when he heard this. He pushed the quiver on his nose and said softly, "My humble surname is Yang, and Hanlin is an official position."

Seeing his serious explanation, Wen Yu smiled and said, "I know, I'm just teasing you."

Yang Hanlin pursed his lips a little embarrassedly when he heard this.

The Grand Secretary saw everything. He cleared his throat and said, "Because the eldest princess has a weak foundation, the emperor has discussed with me and decided to use idioms as a starting point based on your daily speaking habits to guide the eldest princess."

"Idioms?" Wen Yu blinked. "I already know idioms. No need to teach me!"

The Grand Secretary paused while holding the book: "Oh? The Princess is so confident?"

"Of course!"

The Grand Secretary nodded and said, "How about I test the Princess?"

Wen Yu smiled: "Come on."

The university scholar wanted to use this opportunity to let Wen Yu learn more about the diligence and love of learning of the ancients, so he thought for a moment and said, "What does it mean to drill a hole in the wall to steal light?"

"Breaking a hole in the wall to steal light? How difficult is that? It just means breaking open the wall and stealing everything inside."

Grand Secretary: ...

Yang Hanlin: ...

The Grand Secretary blew his beard and felt a slight headache.

He explained: "In ancient times, there was a child from a poor family who could not afford an oil lamp to study at night, so he chiseled a small hole in the wall of his neighbor's house and used the light from his neighbor's house to study. He was very hardworking and this was called "chiseling the wall to steal light". It was a metaphor for persisting in studying hard in difficult circumstances."

Wen Yu blinked, holding her chin and said, "No, whether he worked hard or not is another matter. This kid is really immoral. He actually chiseled a hole in the neighbor's wall. Did the neighbor know?"

Grand Secretary: ...
