Chapter 1324 My Rules Are the Most Important, Teaching Is Appropriate

Military advisor Xie Chong, who was standing behind Zhou Chen, reminded in a low voice: "Your Highness, if you teach like this, the Miao family will be in trouble."

Zhou Chen said nonchalantly: "Now that I have come to Xizhou, I can no longer control the Yang family. In the palace, everything will be according to my rules."

Having said this, others naturally had no objections, and Zhou Tianxing and other disciples also smiled happily.

In fact, they were also very confused by the rules like this from Shiyi, because they had never had such rules and etiquette before. The junior sister did this, which made them seem to have no etiquette, although they all felt sorry for the junior junior sister who could not speak. I feel sorry for him, but still a little depressed.

Now that Zhou Chen said this, they were completely relieved. They were all in the military, but they couldn't follow the etiquette of the Tao family.

"Eleven, after lunch, come find me in the study."

Jian Shiyi couldn't speak, but still nodded happily, and then left with Cheng Xi.

Xie Chong frowned when he saw Zhou Chen staring at Nao Shiyi who was leaving, and asked in a low voice: "Is Your Highness worried about Miss Nao's aphasia?"

"Um."

"The family is the head of a distinguished family. Miss Yang's aphasia must have been cured by many famous doctors, but none of them could be cured. I think Miss Yang's aphasia should be caused by a heart disease."

"I understand that heart ailments can only be cured by heart medicine, so take your time."

Zhou Chen herself is a top doctor. Even if she doesn't know the plot, she can still see the timing problem. She was like this because she suddenly lost her father and was shocked.

If you want to cure her, you need heart medicine, which also requires time. If you lose a loved one, then give her support and she will recover sooner or later.

In the afternoon, Shi Yi came to the study to find Zhou Chen very obediently. Zhou Chen waved his hand and let Cheng Xi go out, leaving only Shi Yi.

"Eleven, although I have ten disciples in name, I don't have much teaching experience before you. Your senior brothers and sisters are different from you. They all learn the art of killing and attacking in the army, so you You are my first true apprentice. If you want to learn anything, you can tell me directly. If I can, I will try my best to teach you."

Shi Yi's face was confused. In her mind, to learn from the master, she would naturally learn whatever the master taught her. Let her speak for herself. She really didn't know what to say.

So she made gestures to show that she was listening to Master.

Of course Zhou Chen understands sign language, and said with a smile: "Don't be formal. What I'm good at is naturally martial arts and the art of war, but you definitely don't want to learn these, such as chess, calligraphy and painting, poetry and articles, the study of saints, etc., I I understand a little bit, just tell me what you want to say.”

Shi Yi frowned slightly, thought about it seriously, and replied in sign language: "Playing chess, calligraphy, and painting are all fine."

"Okay, let's start with chess, calligraphy and painting. To learn the piano, you have to go to the piano room. This is my study. So let's start with chess today."

Naturally, Go exists in this world, and it is developing very well. Even ordinary people know about Go, and it is even more popular among famous families.

As the daughter of the Miao family, Shi Yi is certainly no stranger to Go, and her level is even quite good.

When she heard that Zhou Chen wanted to teach her how to play chess, she immediately smiled happily, then took the initiative to bring the chess board and chess pieces, sat opposite Zhou Chen, and started to learn chess.

The game of Go during this period was different from that of later generations, but Zhou Chen had already mastered it, so it was not a problem to teach him a certain skill.

There is a diligent, studious, smart and lovely student. The teaching time passes very quickly, and the afternoon passes quickly.

Zhou Chen put away the chess pieces and said, "Okay, let's stop here today. Come to me again tomorrow morning and I will teach you how to write."

Although Shi Yi had learned to write, she still nodded happily. She liked to sit with Zhou Chen and listen to Zhou Chen's teachings.

She really learned a lot from the chess game this afternoon. The master's chess style is changeable, and she is no match for her. The master's patient teaching and explanation made her study very seriously.

After giving a slight bow, Shi Yi left Zhou Chen's study with his maid Cheng Xi.

After Zhou Chen had dinner, military advisor Xie Chong happily came to see him.

"Your Highness, I heard that you taught Miss Niao how to play chess today?"

"Well, Shiyi is very smart and learns quickly. I will ask her to come to me to practice calligraphy tomorrow. I should take her to piano lessons in the afternoon."

Xie Chong said with a smile: "I was originally worried that Your Highness would not know how to teach Miss Niao. It seems that my worries are unnecessary. I can see that Your Highness likes this disciple very much."

"Military advisor, are you very free?"

"ah?"

"If the military advisor is very free, he will go to inspect the military camp with Xiaoyu and the others tomorrow. It just so happens that I have to teach Eleven during this period and I don't have time to go there."

Xie Chong's eyes suddenly widened: "No, Your Highness, I am so old, you want me to inspect the military camp on your behalf?"

Zhou Chen said calmly: "I don't want you to come and tease me when you have nothing to do."

"hehe……"

Xie Chong suddenly laughed, smiling happily.

"Your Highness, I noticed that you have changed a lot these days, especially after you accepted Miss Nao as your disciple. You actually didn't even go to inspect the military camp. This never happened before."

In the past, Zhou Shengchen was all about military affairs. Even if he stayed in the palace, he could not go to the military camp all day long. He would go to the military camp every now and then to inspect the military camp. In the early morning, he would take his apprentices and soldiers from the palace to the martial arts field for training. .

But in the past few days since he came back, he left all these things to his apprentice and him. He often went back to the library to read, and he also meditated and read in the study, sitting there for half a day.

After accepting a disciple, I was even more concerned about this new disciple. I started formal teaching the next day, as well as planned teaching.

Zhou Chen asked: "Does the military advisor think these changes of mine are good or bad?"

"Of course it's fine."

Xie Chong answered without hesitation that although he was once sent by the late emperor to monitor, over the years, he had already established a deep friendship with Zhou Shengchen and truly regarded Zhou Shengchen as a relative.

In the past, King Xiao Nanchen only cared about the military and protecting the people, and had little time for himself. Everything was official, and he never was lazy and worked diligently for the people.

This was a good thing and what the late emperor wanted to see, but when he saw it, he felt uncomfortable in his heart. His Highness had sacrificed too much for the royal family and the world. He sincerely hoped that Zhou Shengchen could be happier and think more about himself.

He saw Zhou Chen's recent changes and felt happy in his heart.

"Your Highness, if you have nothing to do, why don't we play a game of chess?"

"OK."

Zhou Chen did not refuse and started playing chess with Xie Chong. However, after a few moves, Xie Chong frowned.

"Why has His Highness's chess style changed so much from usual?"

"Strategists say that I have changed recently. Isn't it normal for the style of chess to change? I have recently read military books and gained a lot of insights, so I have a new understanding and appreciation for playing chess. Strategists should pay attention. "

After a long while, Xie Chong held the chess piece in his hand, but could not find it for a long time, and finally let out a long sigh.

"I lost. His Highness's chess skills have improved a lot. I am no longer my opponent."

Zhou Chen said with a smile: "The military advisor is too modest. I just changed my chess style suddenly and the military advisor did not adapt."

Xie Chong shook his head gently, partly for this reason, but he could also see that Zhou Chen had always been at ease during the game.

Time flies, and two days pass. During these two days, Zhou Chen personally taught Yang Shiyi, one lesson in the morning and one in the afternoon.

In the evening, Shiyi would run to the library to sort out the books. Zhou Chen said that there was no need to sort out the books, but she insisted. Seeing that she enjoyed it, Zhou Chen stopped stopping her.

Today, Yao Shiyi happily came to the study room to prepare for class with Zhou Chen.

Although she has been in class these past few days, she does not feel bored or tired at all. Instead, she is very happy.

The master is very kind to her. Even if she doesn't learn well, the master will correct her very gently and help her. Moreover, the master is so powerful and knows everything. She can answer whatever she asks. This makes her especially admire and look forward to it. Study with the master.

She felt that these few days of studying with her master were the happiest days since she became speechless, so she looked forward to it every day.

But when she came to the study room today, Zhou Chen did not take her to class, but prepared to take her out.

"Eleven, you have become my disciple and have entered the palace for a few days, but you have never been to the military camp, and Wang Jun has never seen you. Today I will take you to the military camp to let Wang Jun get to know you."

Upon hearing this, Yan Shiyi was surprised. In the past few days since she came to Xizhou, apart from staying at the post station for two days, she had only been to the city wall once to watch the military parade. The rest of the time she spent at the palace, so she had to She was so happy when she knew that Master was going to take her to the military camp.

"You go back and get ready. It's cold outside, so wear more clothes."

Jian Shiyi nodded, then hurriedly left the study and went back to his yard to get dressed.

Zhou Chen and his disciples were waiting at the entrance of the palace. Soon, Jian Shiyi came over, and Cheng Xi followed her.

Seeing Zhou Chen, Cheng Xi hurriedly said: "Your Highness, I heard from the girl that you want to take her to the military camp, but the girl is a noble daughter, no..."

Before she could finish speaking, Zhou Chen said in a deep voice: "I know that Shiyi is the daughter of the Miao family, but she is also a member of the royal family now. It is natural for me to take her to meet the royal army under my command."

"But……"

"There are no buts. In the palace, my words are the rules."

Zhou Chen interrupted Cheng Xi forcefully and said, "You don't have to follow me. I and her senior brothers and sisters will take care of Eleven."

It's not that he has a problem with Cheng Xi. He knows that Cheng Xi does everything for Shi Yi's sake, but with her following him, Shi Yi can't let go after all.

Cheng Xi did not dare to disobey Zhou Chen's order, but Hong Xiaoyu and others happily told Shi Yi that they would take good care of her and so on.

In the end, Cheng Xi could only watch his girl leave the palace with reluctance, while Chu Shiyi was extremely happy, completely ignoring Cheng Xi's sad face, and even waved to her before leaving, making Cheng Xi want to cry without tears. .

In the past, when going to the military camp, they would ride directly on horseback, but this time in order to take care of Shi Yi, Zhou Chen specially arranged a carriage, and Zhou Chen rode in the carriage with Shi Yi.

On the way, Shiyi wanted to open the curtain several times and look out, but because Zhou Chen was there, she was embarrassed.

"You can watch it if you want."

It was Zhou Chen who spoke, and she looked happy. She carefully lifted the curtain and looked out at the street.

As an ancient capital, Xizhou is not as lively and prosperous as Zhongzhou City now, but it is not much different. There is Nanchen Prince's Mansion here, and it can be said to be the safest city in the west. Therefore, the streets are very bustling and bustling with people coming and going. It is also a good time to watch. Very interesting.

Zhou Chen looked at the excited Shi Yi and said softly: "If you like it, I will take you to visit the bustling city of Xizhou later."

Jian Shiyi put down the curtain and looked at Zhou Chen expectantly, making a 'can it' gesture with his hand.

Zhou Chen nodded and said: "Of course, I said, the Wang Mansion is different from yours, there are not so many rules. If you want, I will personally take you to visit Xizhou City. The night view of Xizhou is actually quite beautiful."

Jian Shiyi nodded repeatedly, looking impatient.

Seeing her cute appearance, Zhou Chen chuckled and wanted to reach out and touch her head, but he realized that this was ancient times, so he controlled himself in time.

"I will take you to meet Wang Jun today."

When Zhou Chen brought Yu Shiyi to the military camp, Wang Jun was training. When the soldiers saw the appearance of Zhou Chen and others, they became more serious.

Ji Shiyi followed Zhou Chen closely, not daring to take a step away. Zhou Chen deliberately slowed down to let her look around.

After walking around, the soldiers in the military camp already knew about Yu Shiyi and knew that she was the eleventh disciple of their commander, King Xiao Nanchen.

After staying in the military camp for a long time, Kao Shiyi also met his brother Kao Feng, and the two exchanged pleasantries again.

"It seems that His Highness is really nice to you. He personally brought you to the military camp. In this case, my brother will be completely relieved."

Nianfeng saw that Zhou Chen was very kind to his sister. He was a little worried at first, but now he was not worried at all. Instead, he told Shi Yi to learn more from his master and to be filial to his master.

The well-behaved Jiao Shiyi naturally obeyed her brother. It was not until the afternoon that she reluctantly said goodbye to Jiao Feng and returned to the palace with Zhou Chen and others.

I went to the military camp outside the city today. I also walked a lot. After returning to the palace, I felt very tired and went back to my room to rest early.

On this day, Zhou Chen taught Qin, and Shi Yi chose Gu Qin Changfeng, which was also the Qin often used by King Xiao Nanchen in the past.

"Ding…………"

After Shi Yi finished talking about a song, Zhou Chen commented: "Yes, there is improvement compared to last time, but there are still some things that need attention..."

Zhou Chen taught and the time was right for learning, and the class passed quickly.

After the course, Zhou Chen said to Shi Yi: "New Year's Eve is coming in a few days. In Xizhou City, the curfew is relaxed during the Spring Festival. Xizhouchen will be very lively at night. Do you want to go out for a walk then?"

'May I? ’

Ji Shiyi looked forward to it.

"Of course, I always keep my word. On New Year's Eve, I will take you for a walk around the city."

There is a curfew during this period. Even if there is Nanchen King's army in Xizhou City, the curfew is still very strict. The curfew usually starts from the first watch to the fifth watch, which is about 8 or 9 pm to 4 or 5 am. Click this way, during special holidays, it may be slightly delayed.

In the blink of an eye, a few days have passed, and we have arrived during the Spring Festival, the most important traditional Chinese festival. New Year's Eve is the day before the Spring Festival. According to the rules, everyone needs to keep the New Year's Eve on this day, and Nanchen Palace is no exception.

On New Year's Eve, everyone in the palace gathered together to have a meal together and prepare to start watching the New Year's Eve.

I have been coming to Nanchen Palace for many years, but the number of times I have stayed at the Palace to celebrate the New Year is really very rare. Most of the time, I have stayed in the military camp. It is really rare to get together like today.

"Master..."

As the eldest disciple, Hong Xiaoyu took the lead and began to toast Zhou Chen to celebrate the New Year. The other disciples followed closely behind, saying good things with happy faces.

Zhou Chen also smiled and drank with them. In this ancient feudal society with strict hierarchies and many rules, the atmosphere in Nanchen Palace was really rare.

Everyone is very happy today. Even the military advisor Xie Chong drank a little more and continued to clink glasses with others despite being slightly drunk.

Usually everyone is busy with military affairs, and it is rare to get together and drink so freely, so today everyone is very happy and drinking to the fullest. It doesn't take long for everyone to be the drunkest.

Zhou Chen saw that it was almost time, so he stood up and said, "I'll go to the library first and come back later."

Naturally, no one would have any objections.

Not long after Zhou Chen left, Yang Shiyi also made an excuse to leave, and then went straight to the library.

"Come on, put on your clothes and I'll take you out."

Ji Shiyi picked up the brocade cloak that had been prepared long ago, put it on his body and wrapped it tightly, then raised his little face and looked at Zhou Chen expectantly.

Zhou Chen smiled slightly and brought her another white veil hat: "Bring this with you."

After Shiyi put on the bamboo hat, Zhou Chen took her out of the back door of the palace. As the owner of the palace, he naturally went out when he wanted.

Not long after they left, someone ran to Xie Chong to report. After hearing this, Xie Chong smiled slightly and ignored them. He saw all the little actions of Zhou Chen and Miao Shiyi at the previous banquet.

‘It’s rare for His Highness to be elegant, so let them have fun. ’

Zhou Chen and Yang Shiyi walked out of the palace. Yang Shiyi was very excited and asked Zhou Chen.

‘Master, where are we going? ’

Zhou Chen smiled and said: "Today, I will take you to the Kitchen City Gate. There is a Royal Kitchen Street there, which is very lively. Many Royal Chefs lived there in the past. They gathered rare treasures from all over the world. I will take you to taste them tonight."

'Yeah. ’

Miao Shiyi nodded happily. Although she was not the kind of person who ate well, she was still looking forward to it after hearing what Zhou Chen said.

"Let's go."

Zhou Chen led the way, and the two of them walked towards the Kitchen City Gate.

Today is New Year's Eve. It's already dark, but the streets are still brightly lit and bustling with pedestrians and children everywhere.

When we arrived at the Imperial Kitchen Street in front of the Kitchen City Gate, it was even more lively. Both sides of the road were lined with small stalls selling food, toys, lanterns, etc., everything you can think of. It was really dazzling to see.
