Chapter 212: Daddy goes farther and farther on the road
Looking at the child in front of him who was dressed in plain clothes and bright eyes, Du Shaoqing looked at him for a moment, thinking that this is the future detective? Could it be that he is the one who is more famous?
Di Renjie boldly raised his head and looked at Du Shaoqing, and said stubbornly: "It was my father who brought me to find you. I don't want to worship you as his teacher."
"Renjie, what are you talking about?" Di Zhixun scolded.
Du Shaoqing waved his hand to stop Di Zhixun, and asked Di Renjie with a smile: "Oh? Why don't you want to? Why does your father have to ask you to become a disciple?"
Di Renjie looked at Du Shaoqing's slightly school-taking look without a trace of timidity, and said aloud: "Academic knowledge is learned by oneself, not by the teacher. If the teacher is a talented man and the students he taught will be fine, then everyone in the world will become a talented man, so where can the stupid man come from?"
Um?
Hearing this, Li Er, who was drinking tea with Concubine Yang next to him, exclaiming lightly, thinking that although this child spoke wildly, this truth was not completely unreasonable at first glance.
Di Zhixun was furious, "Zhu Zi, you dare to speak so rudely, I..."
As he said that, he was about to come up and pull Di Renjie, and Du Shaoqing stopped him, "Mr. Di County, I think this child is right. The genius was not taught by the teacher.
I once heard a wise man say: First-class people don’t need to be taught, second-class people teach with words, and third-class people teach with sticks.
I didn't expect that the son could figure this out at a young age. It seemed that he was a genius."
Seeing Du Shaoqing praise his son so much, Di Zhixun was reluctant to beat his son, and he repeatedly agreed to say yes.
But while drinking tea, Concubine Yang was panicked and asked her son for her teacher. Now, after hearing Du Shaoqing's words, he said that people are good and bad, and they are not taught by the teacher, so there is no end to them? Isn't his youngest son hopeless to ask for a teacher?
So Concubine Yang couldn't help but push the emperor beside her. Li Er gently patted the back of her beloved concubine's hand, indicating that she could feel at ease.
Di Renjie was also surprised. He thought that after saying this, the other party might be angry and angry to drive him and his father out. Unexpectedly, this person actually thought the same as his own point of view, so the child began to become interested in Du Shaoqing, as if he had resonated with the other party and thus developed a favorable impression.
Just hearing this, Du Shaoqing was basically sure that this child must be the future detective, and geniuses always go unrestrained.
After thinking about it, Du Shaoqing felt that if he missed this genius today, he would probably regret it in the future. Du Shaoqing would not feel regretful if he refused the position of Prince Shao’s position given by the emperor, but it would definitely be a regret if he missed Di Renjie. It would definitely be interesting to be able to witness the growth of a genius.
So Du Shaoqing smiled and asked Di Renjie: "You are very good. I don't know if you want to stay here to study with me?"
When Di Zhixun heard this, he was overjoyed and urged his son to agree quickly. This was a rare opportunity.
On the other side, the emperor coughed lightly: "Hmm, boy Du!"
Du Shaoqing ignored it and looked at Di Renjie intently, wondering how he would answer.
Di Renjie wondered: "Didn't you just say that geniuses don't need to be taught? Why do you still have to be my teacher now?"
"I want you to stay and learn medical skills from me," Du Shaoqing explained.
Puff! Li Er next to him suddenly spurted out the tea in his mouth, thinking to himself, "What the hell is this guy?" He is here to learn civil and military strategies, but you are someone who is studying medicine and being a doctor?" I guess this county magistrate will be angry to death.
Sure enough, Di Zhixun frowned and said, "Earl Du, I'm afraid a child does not have the talent for medical skills. Why not let him..."
"It's better to let him answer by himself!" Du Shaoqing emphasized.
Well, Di Zhixun felt that the count seemed a little dissatisfied with his unauthorized interruption, so he could only expect his always clever son to not choose the wrong choice. It would be useless to learn medical skills.
Di Renjie asked: "Study medicine? What's the use of studying medicine? Is medical skills interesting?"
Du Shaoqing bent down and held Di Renjie's shoulder and said seriously: "Studying medicine is to save people. Whether you have any intention depends on your interests. I can only tell you that compared to the Four Books and Five Classics, medical skills are something you will never learn in your life."
When Di Renjie heard this, he was a little dissatisfied, "My three-year-old father taught me to read, and I could read books alone at the age of four. Now I am six years old, and I can recite all the Four Books and Five Classics long ago.
What's the difficulty of medical skills? I don't believe that Di Renjie needs to learn for a lifetime. Humph, I will study medicine with you. If you can't teach me then, what do you have to say?"
OK! Du Shaoqing was overjoyed. This child was obviously a self-confident boy. Such a person was young and frivolous, and he couldn't stand the most excitement. Unexpectedly, he agreed.
"Renjie, you..." Di Zhixun was greatly disappointed. How could this happen?
Du Shaoqing turned around unhappily and asked, "What? County Magistrate Di looked down on me and other medical disciples?"
Well... Di Zhixun quickly apologized, "Misunderstanding, I am lucky to be able to receive the Count Du from his disciples. You are the master. You have the final say on how to teach your apprentice."
This man is not confused. He knows that the road is already done. Even if it is not satisfactory, he is still the apprentice of the world's number one talented man, and his reputation is always very famous.
"Okay, let my third uncle take two of you to rest first, and stay in the mansion for the time being. When I have finished entertaining guests, I will choose a good time to give the apprenticeship ceremony next day." Du Shaoqing said.
Di Renjie stared at Du Shaoqing, as if he wanted to see clearly that the other party did not deliberately set up a trap to make him become a disciple, so why did he agree to him in a daze?
"What? You are not convinced when you are like this? Do you want to regret it?" Du Shaoqing looked at Di Renjie jokingly.
His face turned red, Di Renjie stubbornly said with a tough heart: "A real man, he will never regret it when he says he does. Di Renjie has met Master Du!"
After saying that, he gave Du Shaoqing a half-teacher ceremony. Di Renjie walked out first. Du Shaoqing shook his head and smiled. This kid was still not convinced. He took me as his teacher but did not recognize his master. He only called him a teacher and had a personality.
Uncle San took the Di family and his son out to entertain him. Du Shaoqing returned to Li Er’s tea table. Li Er frowned and said, “Boy, that’s a genius child. Do you really let him study medicine? Isn’t this a waste of talent?”
When Li Er was shocked when he heard Di Renjie practiced literature at the age of three and six, he could memorize the Four Books and Five Classics. He was absolutely a genius. Even if he didn't understand the original meaning of the scriptures, he could memorize it by rote.
Du Shaoqing smiled and said, "If Your Majesty is willing to let the Sixth Prince Li Yan learn medicine like Di Renjie, I will not refuse. After all, in terms of medical treatment, the son-in-law thinks he is not inferior to others."
Li Er shouted: "Boy, you're too much! I didn't ask you to fool us with medical skills. If you dare..."
Who knew that before Li Er finished speaking, Yang Fei next to him interrupted: "Okay! Just say it, let Yaner learn medicine with you!"
Hum? The emperor turned his head in surprise and looked at Concubine Yang. What is this going on?
