Tang Jinyan stepped into the classroom. It was still early, and there was no one in the corner near the back door.
He walked straight over and sat in the second seat, leaving the first seat near the door empty.
He saw Xu Xian's car when he parked in the underground parking lot, but he wasn't sure if Xu Xian would come to this history class.
His intuition told him that she would come …
It turned out that his intuition was wrong.
When the bell rang and Professor Lee went up to the podium, the seat he left was still empty.
She obviously went to another class.
Tang Jinyan laughed at himself and didn't dwell on it. If she didn't come, then so be it. In fact, even if she did come, he wouldn't know what to say to her.
Should he say that he wanted to kidnap her and give her to others to f * ck?
That would be ridiculous.
He told Lee Yoon-rim that he would wait until he saw Xu Xian in the afternoon before making a decision. In fact, he was just subconsciously delaying and being perfunctory.
He also knew that his mentality wasn't right. To put it bluntly, Xu Xian didn't have much of a friendship. They were only deskmates twice, so what kind of loyalty was there for him to protect?
But he couldn't make up his mind.
He felt that ever since he was trapped in Jung Eun-thi's smiling eyes, his knife seemed to be getting duller and duller, and he lost his decisiveness to kill.
He was a little angry at himself.
"… Kangxi Emperor had a total of twenty-four sons, and nine of them participated in the struggle for the throne, so it was called the Nine Dragons Struggle for the Throne."
Professor Lee's voice woke Tang Jinyan up from his daze, and he realized that he had missed the preamble.
He remembered that he didn't come to the class to see Xu Xian, so he quickly shook his head and focused on the lecture.
He listened for more than ten minutes, but to be honest, he didn't really understand.
It was mainly because he hadn't heard of the previous classes, so he didn't know anything about the Kangxi Dynasty. The names that came out of the Professor's mouth were Songgotu and Mingzhu, and he only knew that they were high-ranking officials. The names of the older brothers were even more obscure, and he got confused after listening to a few of them.
After listening to half of the lecture in a daze, she heard Professor Lee say from the podium, "… After the Crown Prince was deposed, the Ba Ye faction became the most powerful faction. Not only do they have many vassals, but they also have many supporters in the imperial court.
At that time, everyone thought that Master Ba was the most promising one. "
A student raised his hand and asked, "But wasn't Yongzheng the fourth son?"
Tang Jinyan blinked. His interest was piqued.
He had many helpers in the court, and his brothers also supported him. Everyone thought that Old Eighth had the most hope, but why did his head still explode … Bah bah bah, not this Old Eighth, but Eighth Elder Brother. Why couldn't he become the Emperor?
Professor Lee smiled and said, "When the Crown Prince was deposed, Kangxi asked who would take over his position.
In the end, the officials elected Eighth Elder Brother. "
The students began to discuss among themselves. "Isn't that good?
With the support of the officials, the new Crown Prince should be decided. "
Tang Jinyan narrowed his eyes, deep in thought.
Professor Lee glanced at Tang Jinyan's thoughtful expression and suddenly asked, "What do you think, Jinyan?"
Tang Jinyan raised his head and asked tentatively, "Was it a taboo for Kangxi?"
Professor Lee smiled and said, "You're right.
Master Ba's faction was so powerful, how could Kangxi not be afraid?
Since ancient times, there have been many Emperors who were pushed to the position of Retired Emperor by their sons.
Therefore, Kangxi believed that Yinshu was a person who was a hundred times more dangerous than the Crown Prince. "
The students suddenly understood and sighed.
Tang Jinyan lowered his head and didn't say anything. Suddenly, the bloody light on Baek Chang-soo's shoulder appeared in his mind.
As if he had been enlightened, his entire body relaxed.
So that's how it was.
Baek Chang-soo was too close to him. He had repeatedly tried to make him, Ninth Elder Tang, into his faction. Of all the people he could form a faction with, he actually chose to form a faction with him, Tang Jinyan. This must have caused the Old Master to be wary … Moreover, Baek Chang-soo was the first person to lay his hands on his brother. The Old Master was afraid that before he died, he would be killed by Baek Chang-soo first …
The reason why he hit the shoulder was only a warning. It wasn't that Baek Chang-soo was lucky or that the other party was weak.
If he had deliberately chosen the time when Song Ji-hyo was present, it was probably to sow discord between Tang Jinyan and Baek Chang-soo.
In vain, he thought that one of his brothers had done it and went to flip the table.
After flipping the table, the most shocked person should be the Old Master …
Baek Chang-soo guessed the whole story. He had a grudge against the Old Master, so he hid the photo and only told Tang Jinyan. Did he have the intention of supporting Tang Jinyan?
Tang Jinyan was distracted and missed a lot of words. When he came back to his senses, he only heard Professor Lee say, "… After this blow, Eighth Elder Brother gradually supported Fourteenth Elder Brother …"
Tang Jinyan's face changed slightly. He raised his hand and asked, "What kind of person is Fourteenth Elder Brother?"
"Fourteenth Elder Brother was outstanding. Because of his loyalty, he was valued by Kangxi …"
As soon as Professor Lee said this, Tang Jinyan's face became very ugly.
"… In the 57th year of Kangxi, Cewang Rabutan launched a rebellion. Fourteenth Elder Brother was appointed as the Great General Fuyuan. It took him a year to completely suppress the rebellion. From then on, he became famous and was called the Great General.
But while he was leading the army outside, Kangxi, who was ill, chose Fourth Elder Brother. "
Tang Jinyan's face was already like the bottom of a pot.
Wasn't he now the loyal Great General who was leading the army in battle?!
Until the class was over, he still sat quietly in his seat and did not move for a long time.
Professor Lee packed up the lesson plan. Seeing that he had not left, he walked over and smiled, "It seems that this kind of class is more suitable for you than literature appreciation."
Tang Jinyan stood up and bowed, "Thank you, Professor."
Professor Lee waved his hand, "I'm just teaching as usual."
Tang Jinyan said, "Just for the pass, I have to thank Professor."
Professor Lee smiled, "Zhixiao XI has already thanked you."
Tang Jinyan suddenly asked, "What happened to Fourteenth Elder Brother?
Was he willing to assist Fourth Elder Brother? "
Professor Lee laughed, "Fourteenth Elder was proud and arrogant. How could he be convinced by Fourth Elder Brother? In the end, he was imprisoned for half of his life.
This was because he and Fourth Elder Brother were born from the same mother, otherwise … "
Tang Jinyan sighed, "I understand.
Professor, what is the difference between Fourteenth Elder Brother and Fourth Elder Brother? "
"This is the content of the next class …" Professor Lee smiled, "But you may not have the time every time, so you might as well talk about it all together."
Tang Jinyan sincerely thanked him, "Thank you, Professor."
"Fourteenth Elder Brother is only two points behind."
"What two points?"
"First, he is not patient enough. Second … he is not ruthless enough."
Tang Jinyan's face turned ugly again.
After a long time, he bowed, "Thank you, Professor. I'll treat you to a meal some other day?"
"That won't be necessary."
Professor Lee smiled, "I also find it interesting that the underworld is so studious. I'd like to know how long you can persist in studying."
Professor Lee knew his identity. Tang Jinyan did not say much. He watched Professor Lee leave and slowly left the classroom.
You all want me to be Fourteenth Elder?
It's not that easy!
Patient, I have been patient for more than ten years.
Ruthless … He clenched his fists and looked up at the sky for a long time. Then he let out a long sigh.
