The 20th time the flower blooms, it should be picked immediately

  (Wu pen is considering whether or not to publish all his stored manuscripts today, as it's the end of the world on 2012.12.21.)

  The emerald leaves quivered and quaked, as if comforting the furious sunlight that burst in through the window!

  "Haha...!" Li Chengqian held a flower in his hand, "I've been wanting to do this for a long time!"

  "Grandfather, why did you pick this flower for no reason?" Su Hongjiao asked with a pout, her beautiful black eyes looking at the flower in his hand with great pity.

  He who wants flowers must pluck them when they are in bloom, and he who wants to use men must employ them while they are capable.

  Su He looked at him in surprise, her small mouth lightly reciting the poem he had just spoken, and she couldn't help but be infatuated! Such a sentence full of philosophical meaning, was actually spoken by Li Chengqian this morning when he was annoyed and broke off a branch of flowers, could this be what they call "words flowing from the heart"?

  Li Chengqian turned around and pinned the flower in Su Hong's hair, praising: "I think it looks best this way!"

  A romantic remark brought Su He out of her daze, and she touched the flowers on her hair, her cheeks flushing with happiness. For a moment, neither of them spoke, Li Chengqian gazing deeply at his wife, while Su He lowered her head in shyness!

  The room is filled with an atmosphere of love!

  After a while, Su He's attention returned to the poem and he said excitedly: "Your words are like pearls, even small flowers can understand the profound truth of 'cherish the present, don't wait for future regrets'! The famous phrases of the past pale in comparison to this poem. What is the previous line of this eternal masterpiece?"

  My wife's praise made me feel extremely happy, as if I was flying in the sky. The annoyance of the morning disappeared instantly, but then my wife asked a question and I was stunned!

  "Is there a previous sentence?" Li Chengqian asked blankly.

  Su He was taken aback, then burst out laughing and leaned into Li Chengqian's arms, saying: "Yes, a poem should have at least two sentences and four lines. This sentence of yours is the finishing touch, it should be in the last line! So the previous sentence should be words of advice!"

  Li Chengqian was confused, he just knew there was such a sentence, and he had never noticed that there was another sentence above it!

  "Grandfather, just add the previous sentence, let me be happy again!" Su He shook his body.

  "I, I just can't remember..." Li Chengqian really thought hard, but he truly couldn't recall. Damn it, it's all because of watching too many things superficially in my past life. If only I could search on Baidu, this embarrassing situation wouldn't have happened!

  Su He did not believe it, "How could Grandfather have thought of this line 'The flower is in bloom and should be picked immediately, don't wait until there are no flowers to pick the empty branch'?"

  "The article was written today, and the wonderful pen was obtained by chance. I think of it and say it out, can't think of it and can't say it!" Li Chengqian was annoyed, I just won't connect the next sentence, what else do you ask?

  Su He's eyes lit up and he exclaimed: "The article was naturally perfect, the wonderful pen was occasionally obtained... Grandfather, you have again composed a sentence that will be passed down for thousands of years!!"

  Li Chengqian waved his hand, "Enough!"

  If she lets him continue, then after a while he'll ask her what the previous sentence was again, and won't she be embarrassed all over again?

  "Ah..." Su Hong knew the man was annoyed, so she gently shook his arm and said softly: "You've just recovered from a serious illness, you can't recall your previous knowledge, and you can't finish the sentence. But every sentence of yours is a masterpiece that will be remembered for centuries to come! Which scholar or literary figure in the world has your talent? These two sentences, along with the poem from last time's 'The Legend of the White Snake', if they get out, I'm afraid all the scholars and literary figures in the world will worship you!"

  His wife gave him a compliment, and Li Chengqian felt very pleased in his heart, but he couldn't show it, otherwise this woman would ask another question, which wouldn't be good!

  ………

  "Huh? Why did it stop?" Li Chengqian exclaimed.

  In her arms was still the foolish old woman, who kept reciting those two sentences of ancient poetry in her mouth nonstop. She didn't even notice when the horse carriage stopped, nor did she respond to the man's questions.

  The groom outside said to the carriage: "Report to His Highness the Crown Prince, the Emperor is coming out of the Zhengzhi Hall, so he stopped first!"

  Li Chengqian was startled and hastily asked: "Where did he go?"

  "The Emperor has gone to the Temple of Heaven."

  "Up to it?"

  "Uh, no rush, the Two Instruments Hall is in the opposite direction."

  Li Chengqian finally breathed a sigh of relief, that old guy won't give himself another assignment as soon as they meet again!

  After a while, the carriage moved again and stopped in front of the Temple of Politics. Li Chengqian habitually looked around and wondered, "Where are those two little ones?"

  Entering Lizheng Hall, I met Little Chen. Little Chen whispered: "Yuhe has seen the emperor, His Majesty came this morning, and the empress has already handed over your homework to the emperor."

  "Not bad!" Li Chengqian praised.

  Xiao Chen happily went underground.

  Entering the empress's bedroom, the empress was drinking porridge, with a hint of joy on her face, making her complexion look very good!

  After finishing breakfast, the queen smiled at Li Chengqian and said: "Chengqian, Mom wants to hear you tell the story of Dream of Red Mansions."

  "Ah, I've been ready for a long time!" Li Chengqian said. "Yesterday, I finished the first chapter, now let's continue with the second chapter. Jia's wife passed away in Yangzhou City, and Leng Zixing gave a speech at Rongguo Mansion. The poem says: One game of win or lose is not true, the fragrance of tea has been exhausted, still wandering around. To know the current prosperity and decline, one must ask a bystander with a cold eye. But let's talk about Feng Suo, who heard the public summons..."

  Xiao Chen held his pen and wrote hastily with his head down. Suddenly, a eunuch walked in from outside and said: "Report to the Empress, Concubine Yang has arrived."

  The queen nodded after a glance and said: "Quickly invite Sister Yu Rong in."

  Li Chengqian's story came to a halt, and after a while, a slender and elegant beauty walked in. Her ivory-white palace attire added a touch of purity to her charming temperament!

  She walked to the queen's bed with a smile, holding the queen's hand intimately and said apologetically: "Sister, how is your body today? I'm ashamed, these two days, my son has made trouble again, I was busy and couldn't come to see you, please punish me, sister!"

  "The elder sister got up early this morning and her body was much clearer, the younger sister was worried, where can she be blamed!" The empress smiled and patted Yang Fei's jade hand.

  Yang Fei's gaze shifted onto Li Chengqian, and Su Hong hastily pulled Li Chengqian to pay respects: "Chengqian pays his respects to Yang Mother Empress."

  "No need to be polite. I heard that Your Highness attended your mother's bedside and told her many wonderful stories to alleviate her boredom, including 'The Legend of the White Snake' and 'The River East Lion Roars'. Last night, the Emperor came to my place and retold me the stories you shared, '_Eternal Love_' and '_River East Lion Roars_'. Today, I must hear them in person!"

  Su He heard, his eyes flashed, and he quietly raised his head to glance at the empress. The empress's face was calm and unruffled, as if she hadn't heard Yang Fei boasting about the emperor going to her place last night.

  Li Chengqian naturally couldn't hear these, nodded in response, took over Xiao Chen's manuscript, traditional characters, but still recognizable, and those that were not recognizable could be guessed. After reading the manuscript once, he continued to speak.

  Today this story is destined to be a twist, an eunuch walked in, bowed to the empress and Yang Fei, then turned around and said to Li Chengqian: "Your Highness, someone from the East Palace is looking for you."

  Someone came from the East Palace, which was strange. Li Chengqian looked at Su He and Su He shook his head in ignorance. Let the eunuch go and call the person outside in. A somewhat familiar eunuch said: "Your Highness, the Zhongwen Hall is urging you to attend school!"

  "Shangwen Temple?" Li Chengqian looked at Su He in confusion.

  "Shuwen Temple is where Your Highness studied." Su He knew that when outsiders were present, he should still address Li Chengqian as "Your Highness".

  Only then did Li Chengqian realize that he was still in school! And the exclusive imperial academy for the crown prince was called Chongwen Hall.

  "Never mind, I'll just forget it for today. I still have to tell a story to my mom. Let's talk about it later." Li Chengqian said hesitantly.

  "I'm afraid..." Su Hong looked at him with difficulty.

  The queen smiled and looked at him, saying: "Chengqian still go, after class to see the mother also good. If you don't go, Confucius may not agree!"

  Got it, Mom has already spoken up, can't I just go?

  Bid farewell to a birth mother and a stepmother, out of the Li Zheng Hall, Su He whispered in Li Chengqian's ear: "Yang Fei is really an ungrateful woman!"

  "Huh?" Li Chengqian looked at her in surprise.

  Su Hei said in a low voice: "Yang Fei is the leftover pearl of the previous dynasty, captured by Father Emperor when he was still King of Qin. At that time, she was young and was protected by Mother Empress, who kept her by her side. If it weren't for Mother Empress, Yang Fei wouldn't have survived until now, nor would she have received Father Emperor's favor. Now, she dares to compete with Mother Empress for favor and even has the nerve to show off in front of Mother Empress..."

  Li Chengqian also felt that the Empress was not worth it. After getting on the carriage, he reached out to pull Su He up and said: "The struggle for favor is actually not Yang Fei's fault. Yang Fei's ingratitude and disloyalty are only because of her birth. If she were in a different environment, Yang Fei would definitely treat the Empress like a mother or an elder sister. However, she and the Empress married the same man and lived together under the same roof, so they had to follow the rules. The root of all this evil is him."

  He pointed to the place of the two temples, "Like me, there is only one you, where would these twisted human affairs come from!"

  Su He looked at Li Chengqian with a strange expression, then buried her head in Li Chengqian's arms, it was unclear whether she was moved or what!

  The horse carriage finally stopped, and after Li Chengqian got off the carriage, he saw an old man with a white beard standing in front of the temple gate, his beard shaking as if he was going crazy!

  "This is Kong Yingda, Confucius' grandson, the youngest son of the Crown Prince." Su Hong introduced in a low voice.

  "What is a right-born son?" Li Chengqian asked his wife shamelessly.

  You Shu Zi is the You Chun Fang Shu Zi, in charge of serving, presenting and reporting to the emperor. Confucius was a great master of Confucianism, so he also shared with Zuo Shu Zi the responsibility of teaching the crown prince!

  Oh, this subtle question, I understand now. He is a renowned professor, the head of You Chunfang, and his job is to be the teacher of Li Chengqian, the heir to the throne, as well as his chief instructor!

  He suddenly found that he was somewhat familiar with the name Kong Yingda, and seemed to have heard of it before. He asked: "Is he a descendant of Confucius?"

  Su He looked at Li Chengqian strangely and said, "This doesn't seem right. Confucius' courtesy name was Zhongni, and he was from Qufu in the state of Lu (now Shandong Province). He was born in 551 BC into a family of scholars and officials. His great-grandfather Kong Lingqi was a doctor of the National University during the Northern Wei dynasty; his grandfather Kong Xiangru was a secretary of the Imperial Secretariat during the Northern Wei dynasty. His father Kong An was a military officer in the state of Qi... I've never heard that he was a descendant of Confucius."

  I made a mistake when I watched Brain Supplement before.

  "Hum, why does the prince look at Master but doesn't see him!" An old man's voice rang out.
