Don't be a prince

Seeing that all the people from the aristocratic family were about to leave, Li Chengqian couldn't help but smiled, and said loudly: "Welcome to come again next time!"

The crown prince was already close to the center. Seeing the crown prince shouting loudly, all the captains followed suit and shouted: "Welcome to come again next time!"

As soon as these words came out, those who were still waiting for the carriage to turn around raised their legs and left without hesitation.

Finally there were no outsiders, Li Shimin couldn't help laughing.

"Today is really interesting, I am very happy! Ladies and gentlemen, since we are in the academy, why don't we have a big banquet in the academy, and we will not go home until we are drunk!"

It is rare to see the emperor smiling happily. Although this will definitely delay tomorrow's court meeting and political affairs, no one objected.

It just so happened that there were a lot of people around here today, so Li Chengqian simply put up the new admissions notice to prepare for the second batch of admissions.And through the mouths of these people, this time the reputation of the academy can be regarded as a complete blow!

Naturally, the vice-principal did not need to personally direct the clean-up of the venue. As the vice-principal, the chief principal had to be a guide no matter what.

Guided by Li Chengqian and accompanied by all the great Confucians, Li Shimin entered the main entrance of the academy with a smile.

"I have only seen the grandeur of the academy in the memorial, and now I see it with my own eyes, so I know how big it is. Prince, I heard that you plan to continue to expand on the current basis?"

Li Chengqian followed behind the emperor, and immediately replied: "Yes, I don't plan to build the academy too petty, that is, when the site was selected, not only did the expansion space be reserved for the academy, but also for other merchants and residents. , leaving the construction area.”

"Do you think it will develop here?"

Thinking about the terrifying price of houses in the school district for later generations, Li Chengqian nodded and said: "Naturally, as long as there is a college, this place will develop into a big city sooner or later. And, believe it or not, in the future, the college will go to Chang'an along the road. developed a lot of residents."

After imagining it for a while, Li Shimin discovered that this possibility is really possible.

Nodding for the prince's foresight, Li Shimin said: "Today, I see that you don't show any face to the rich. You can't do this. Didn't you listen to Fang Xiaoquan's teachings? You must learn to be humble, and don't let the soldiers shout when they are defeated. Why welcome to come again next time, it’s just a dog in the water, don’t chase after it.”

Li Gang pushed the wheelchair by himself for a while, and felt tired, so he asked Li Chengqian to push it behind him, and said to his apprentice: "Your Majesty doesn't know something, and this is the reason. The wealthy family headed by the five surnames, since I heard that the academy has researched After learning about the new method of printing books, I came to ask for them. The old man refused, saying that he could print them for them, and he didn’t need to pay much money, as long as he shared their classics. The result, hehe.”

Li Shimin nodded, he didn't need Li Gang to continue, he could guess the result.Those classics that are basically lost to the outside world are the lifeblood of the wealthy.share?There is no such word in their speech.

It's no wonder that the crown prince doesn't give them any favors, but anyway, they don't need to pay more attention to them anyway.

Today is actually the first parents' meeting in the college, but it's for civil and military officials.They spent a lot of money to enroll their children, so naturally they have to take a look.Those students whose fathers and grandparents were officials each brought their parents to visit various parts of the academy.The money spent by their parents is still effective. Basically, all the great Confucians who teach in the college, including Li Gang, will teach them.As for the dormitory, they also share a room of four, which is different from the eight-person bunk beds of ordinary people. There are also preferential treatment for quilts and other things.Mobile terminal../

This is impossible. It is not that Li Chengqian deliberately created class differences, but that he did not do so, which is the biggest weirdness in Datang.

The emperor visited the teaching building and then the office building, and took away the cobblestone ornaments in Vice President Li Chengqian's office, and tossed them around for fun.

Unknowingly, he walked to the History Academy. Li Shimin highly praised Yao Silian's ambition, and said that there are many ancient relics in the palace, and Mr. Yao will take them if he needs them.

After visiting the Academy of History, Li Shimin patted Li Chengqian on the shoulder and said: "Your song called Shangxie is good. After all, you have reached the age of admiring women. Since you have this idea, it's time to give you some advice. I'm going back." How about arranging the selection of concubine for you?"

I'm so....

Li Chengqian quickly refused: "Father, my son is only 11 years old, isn't it too early?"

Li Shimin frowned and said, "How early? Your mother married me when she was thirteen, and you already had you that year. If it weren't for the war at that time, I'm afraid you would have been born earlier. You are now eleven, even if If you can't get married, you have to start choosing a concubine. You are the crown prince, do you think the crown princess is so easy to decide? There are so many disturbances, and it won't be settled for three to five years."

Three to five years?Li Chengqian looked at his small body, he would only be fourteen five six in three to five years!If it's too early, it's not good!

Seeing that he was about to go to Sun Simiao's medical school, Li Chengqian hurriedly said, "Father, it's not that the sons and ministers are unfilial. You can ask Daoist Sun, whether early marriage is harmful to both men and women, and has no benefit at all!"

"Shut up! How can you refuse the words of a matchmaker ordered by your parents?"

Li Shimin entered the door cursing, only to find that he was on Sun Simiao's land. Although he was the emperor, Li Shimin kept his mouth shut.

Some people must be respected, and Sun Simiao is one of them.As a Taoist priest, Sun Simiao didn't have to go north with the army. The survival rate of the wounded barracks set a record, and Sun Simiao contributed a lot!Not to mention that Sun Simiao is planning to establish a medical school to train qualified military doctors for the army.

Sun Simiao was teaching a group of military doctors in the courtyard, and it turned out to be a pig.Seeing a group of great Confucian scholars approaching the emperor, Sun Simiao hurriedly stopped his class and came over to salute.

"Daozhang Sun, there is no need to be too polite. I was walking around the academy today and I didn't expect to meet you in class. What a coincidence."

Probably only the emperor in the world can say something so shameless when disturbing others, as if disturbing you is to give you face.Li Chengqian couldn't help but slander.

Sun Simiao smiled: "Your Majesty rarely takes a break from his busy schedule, so he can just take a rest. The smell of blood in the yard is too thick, why don't we go inside and chat?"

Glancing at the unlucky pig, Li Shimin nodded and followed Sun Simiao into the hut.

When he arrived at Sun Simiao's place, he would naturally be able to drink herbal tea.

After preparing a cup of pagoda tree flower tea, Sun Simiao explained: "Your Majesty, pagoda tree flowers are not just flowers or food. They are used to cure diseases, which just correspond to your wind disease. It is said that medicine is three-point poisonous. It is of great benefit to keep in good health at ordinary times!"

After taking a sip of tea, Li Shimin nodded and began to ask about the date of marriage.

Li Chengqian had colluded with the old Sun when he was in the grassland. After hearing Sun Simiao's talk about the disadvantages of early marriage to men and women, Li Shimin immediately gave up the idea of ​​letting his children marry early.He considers himself a qualified father, and he disdains to trade his child's health for intimacy with ministers.

The banquet was still being prepared, so Li Shimin simply sat down and chatted with Sun Simiao about the wounded barracks.He is the commander in chief, so he naturally knows the importance of the wounded barracks.Now that the East Turkic War proved that casualties can be effectively controlled, he is naturally impatient to spread it to the entire army.As for assigning military merits to military doctors and assigning official positions, in his opinion, they are all trivial matters.

Seeing that the emperor intends to promote the reform of the military medical system, Sun Simiao is naturally willing to break the precept. When it comes to wounded barracks, he always talks about danger, but mixing a handful of soil in a pile of sand basically has no effect.There is no need to exaggerate the real wounded barracks, it is the endorsement of the word "miserable".

While the emperor was talking with Old Sun, a voice suddenly came from the courtyard: "Is Doctor Sun here? Is Doctor Sun here? Come and show King Wei the wound!"

"Blue sparrow?"

As expected of the former commander-in-chief, Li Shimin was the first to react and rushed out of the house.

Li Tai was holding one hand and inhaling straight, the pain was so painful that sweat came out.

Seeing that the emperor's father was actually here, the originally red eyes immediately burst into tears.This guy has this problem, when he is alone or in front of others, he is very strong, but when he is in front of his parents, he is not like this.

"What's the matter, Qingque, don't scare Father!"

Li Tai stretched out a hand in tears, only to see a large blister on his fat hand, which should have been scalded.

Burns are different from other injuries, the kind of piercing pain is really unbearable.

After seeing the injury clearly, Sun Simiao went back to the house to dispense medicine, and after a while, he came out with a paste.

"The old-fashioned cooling ointment is very effective in dealing with burns. If you keep using it, it won't even leave a scar."

Sure enough, Li Tai, who was still crying just now, soon felt less pain.I touched it tentatively, but grinned in pain.

Glancing at Li Tai's bodyguard, Li Shimin said sharply: "How did you take care of the King of Wei! You were so injured! Believe it or not, I cut you off!"

Chapter 2 Shield

In front of Li Tai, Li Shimin became an unreasonable father.

The guard fell to his knees, sweating profusely.

Li Chengqian hurriedly stopped in front and said: "Father, it's none of his business. It is estimated that the blue bird was burned by the colored glaze. It is my son who sent him to the colored glaze workshop. Please punish him!"

Seeing that Brother Huang admitted his mistake, Li Tai hurriedly said: "Father, it's none of the eldest brother's business, Qingque insisted on going there. My son just wanted to see the changes in the colored glaze after leaving the kiln, so he accidentally put his hand on it." It's okay. It's nothing, the medicine of Sun Miracle Doctor is very effective, and my son is no longer in pain."

Seeing that the prince was protecting the guards, and Qingque was protecting the prince, Li Shimin waved his hand angrily, expressing his anger.But when he turned around, there was a smile on the corner of his mouth.Very good, brothers and sisters have always been my most absurd dream, unexpectedly I saw it in my sons.

Seeing the emperor leaving with the Confucians, Li Chengqian looked at Li Tai's hand, frowned and said, "Why are you so careless, Qingque, don't make do with dangerous places if you have nothing to do, you have seen your brother and I leaned into the furnace ?”

It may be that the pain appeared again, Li Tai grinned and said: "I found that as long as the iron powder in the material is sucked out, the colored glaze will lose a lot of green after it is made, but I still can't tell what is in the sand. The resulting glass plate may also be thinner. Your diamond is very useful and can easily scratch marks on the glass, which is much better than the previous knife carving bit by bit. "

You can't talk to a guy who thinks he's great, because he's always showing off all his discoveries to prove his intelligence.However, Li Tai is indeed smart.

The venue outside the college has been completely removed, and the signboard of "Zhenguan College" inscribed by the old man himself is still hanging there high, and there is an invisible sense of calmness.

Ten years old is a dividing line. If you behave too enchantingly under the age of ten, then the word will become a noun, and if you show it after the age of ten, it will become an adjective. As for after the age of 20, it will be a commendatory word.

The cooks of the academy are all trained by the East Palace Kitchen, and their craftsmanship will naturally not disappoint. The emperor's banquet was held in the academy very successfully.In addition, seeing the learning environment of my son with my own eyes, and hearing the great Confucianism's evaluation of my son's progress, is even more enjoyable.

Many people drank to the point of intoxication, and the emperor, who was double happy in his heart, became so drunk that he had to stay overnight in the academy.

It's just that when Li Chengqian found out that his fan had been stolen by Changsun Chong and given to Changsun Wuji, he caught him and gave him a good beating.

With the propaganda of Changsun Wuji, especially because it is something the prince researched, the folding fan has gained great popularity in Chang'an.

The sandalwood fan bone and white jade pendant, no matter how you look at it, you think it is magnificent.As for the blank fans, they are even more popular.If you think your paintings are good and your calligraphy is good, you can write it yourself; and if you get inscriptions from famous people, it will be even more refreshing.This trend has spread so much that even those who don't have a folding fan in their hands are ashamed to say that they are scholars.

After receiving another large sum of income, Li Chengqian had no choice but to put on a bitter face and start the construction of Zhangluo Palace.

The emperor's father admired the scenery around the college very much, so he ordered to build a palace here for living while playing.

The palace is the temporary residence of the emperor when he travels. Many big cities, such as Luoyang and Yangzhou, will be built.However, the college is not very far from Chang'an, so building it here would be time-consuming and labor-intensive, and it doesn't make much sense!

Wei Zheng, who had been silent all this time, was about to jump out to organize, but he saw that the emperor did not call Li Daliang, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, but told the prince.

Hmm... well worth it!Anyway, it was the crown prince who paid for it, so as long as the people's fat and aspirations were not wasted, Wei Zheng didn't care how much the construction of the palace would cost.

The Ministry of Industry does not pay, and does not provide free labor, but labor is still necessary, and the construction of the palace is beyond the scope of the general's ability.Li Daliang came to the academy to discuss the wages of the craftsmen, but he didn't know what kind of promise he got. When he returned to the Ministry of Industry, he was grinning to the ears.

After finishing these trivial matters, Li Chengqian followed Li Gang, almost inseparable.

The old man ate less and less during this period. He could walk without the wheelchair for a while, but now he can only walk a few steps while holding the wheelchair.

The weakness of an old man is not accumulated day by day, but as if he could run and dance one day, and completely collapse the next day.

Sun Simiao has seen it many times, but the diagnosis result is still the same, which makes Li Chengqian a big headache. ,

Birth, old age, sickness and death are things that people have to experience. No one can live forever. The age of the old man is already unique.

The sweltering heat of summer makes people irritable, and only by the river can people get rest.Set up a fishing rod deck chair under the awning, and then you can lie down and take a nap.

"How can you be like the old man at such a young age? Fang Xiaoquan is a rare gentleman of morality. He stayed here just to teach you. If you don't go to him to listen to the teachings, what kind of fish are you fishing with the old man!"

Stretching for a while, Li Chengqian said with a smile: "The old man saw that our college has a printing shop, so he planned to write a book called "Complete Explanation of Tonghua Characters". According to the old man, people like disciples will make people The teacher lost his life, so it is better not to harm him, come back and harm you!"

Li Gang smiled slightly, and said with a look of reminiscence on his face: "It's all nonsense. When the old man married his wife, others said that Li Gang's wife had high cheekbones and was a good husband, but the old man still lived to the end. Now."

"Hey, if Yuan Tiangang is here, maybe he will say that your fate is hard, and the teacher's mother can't stop you."

"How can you make fun of your elders at such a young age, but it's just your temperament that I like, and you can say whatever you want. Since you know that those monks and priests are all nonsense, don't believe in any words that shorten your life. This year, this old man is eighty-three , how many people are crying and shouting that they will never live. Even if they die one day, it is not a premature death. An Ren has already married, although he has given birth to two girls, but sooner or later there will be a son. If you have a son, you will be worthy of your ancestors In addition, you have had a high salary in this life, and now you have become your teacher, what is there to be dissatisfied with this old man!" Remember on the mobile phone in a second→.B\\.\provides you with wonderful novels to read.

The more generous a person is, the more open he is to life and death.The old man's fearlessness is not the fearlessness of a brave man, but his indifference to life and death.

"You, don't always scare yourself. Didn't Master Sun say that you are in good health. My disciple is only [-] this year. You can hold on for a few more years. When my disciple gets married, I will hug your grandson before you want to die. It's not too late!"

Li Gang smiled, and put the bamboo hat on his head. After a while, there was the sound of snoring.

Instructing the guards to carefully take down the fishing rod that the old man had caught, Li Chengqian also leaned on the recliner and began to rest.

Accompaniment is perhaps the best practical gift he can give to the elderly.

The crown prince did not live in the East Palace, but left Chang'an and lived in the academy. This made many officials feel that the rules were broken, and they didn't know who started it. Anyway, the memorial to impeachment has never been interrupted.

Li Shimin naturally knew that the prince's behavior was inappropriate, but considering Li Gang, the only thing he could do was to keep these impeachment memorials from being published.

The emperor refused to answer if he didn't send it. The officials in the court should understand this.It's just that there are two bastard officials who not only refused to give up, but also impeached them in class, which is too much!

Recalling the origins of these two officials, Li Shimin on the throne was about to be laughed at again.

Shijia still doesn't give up!I suffered a loss in the hands of the prince, and I always wanted to get it back once.The fact that the crown prince doesn't live in the East Palace is a good attack point, but, don't these people know that there is a reason for this?

There is no need for him to personally reprimand, because Zhang Jian has already stood up.

"Ridiculous! As the vice president of Zhenguan College, what's wrong with the prince living in the college? Not to mention that Taishi Li is in poor health and needs to be taken care of by Daoist Sun. The prince is doing his filial piety by accompanying the teacher as a disciple. Could it be that the two of you want to attack Is the prince's filial piety?"

Tang Jian's voice was very loud, and the one who could roar so loudly in the court must be from the perspective of winning.

However, Old Tang is indeed sure to win, benevolence, righteousness, filial piety, etc., as long as he moves out, he will be invincible.The Tang Dynasty founded the country with filial piety, who dares to say "no" in front of the word "filial piety"?Even the emperor dare not!You must know that even if Li Shimin killed his brother and imprisoned his father, he would not dare to miss a scene that should be played in front of the public.Even Li Yuan had to attend the banquet after the collapse of the Eastern Turks, and he took the initiative to cooperate with his son in beating gongs and drums, and staged a show of fatherly kindness and filial piety.

I have to act, because as long as the Supreme Emperor does not support the emperor, many people will seize this point to make a big fuss, and even rebel against it.

No one dared to quarrel with Tang Jian, standing in front of filial piety is only a matter of bowing and saluting.

The two officials rolled back to the team in desperation, and Tang Jian began to talk about himself:

"Qizou Your Majesty, the Japanese envoys have arrived in Chang'an and are staying in the hall of Honglu Temple. Except for the Japanese, envoys from Western Turks, Tuyuhun, Tubo, Xueyantuo, Goryeo, Silla, Baekje, Mohe, Gaochang, Dangxiang, etc. , have all gathered in Chang'an, please meet one or two in your majesty's spare time. In addition, those who sent Tang envoy dogs to Yutian spade from the country of Japan hope to read my Tang's classics, or worship famous people as teachers. I heard that the prince fought against famous families with his own strength After all, I hope to be able to study in the academy.”

When hearing the first half, not only the emperor, but even the generals laughed heartily.The victory of the war is Datang's biggest face.The destruction of the huge Eastern Turks is a deterrent to all the countries on this land.I believe that these envoys all came to Datang with the most humble attitude, the most luxurious tribute, and the most humble prayer.

But after hearing the second half, Li Shimin on the throne couldn't help rubbing his temples.The country of Wa is far away in the East, so it is useless to take it, and it can't even be included in Datang's attack list.Such a country is still somewhat useful because it is still used to contain Silla, Baekje, and even Korea.As the suzerain country, it is also a good thing that Datang can be respected by the Wa country.

The classics in the Central Plains have always been something that barbarians yearn for. Since the Japanese sent envoys to the Tang Dynasty with a humble attitude, it is not a big deal to reward them.But... I don't know what's going on, the prince seems to look down on the Wa country alone, and it can be seen that he wants to kill the Wa country's envoy despite Tang Jian's obstruction near the border.

Now that the Japanese envoys sent to the Tang Dynasty want to study in the academy, I am afraid they will fail!

Forget it, what does it matter to me!Let Tang Jian deal with it himself!

Thinking of this, Li Shimin said: "Tang Qing, since the Japanese envoys have this need, you can take them to the college for a try. Don't look at me as the dean of Zhenguan College, the power is in the hands of the deputy dean, the crown prince. By the way, when you go, ask me about my salary, no, the academy calls it salary, you ask me about my salary, when will the crown prince send it?"

The ministers talked a lot about the prince's act of taking power, but after hearing what the emperor said, they didn't say anything more.Obviously, the emperor didn't care that he was not as good as the prince in the academy. It seemed that there was also the idea of ​​testing the prince, so it was better not to talk too much.

After receiving the emperor's order, Tang Jian who returned to his cushion smiled wryly.He came out to play in the hope of obtaining the emperor's will. As long as there is the emperor's will, no matter how much the prince hates the Japanese envoys, he will obey.Now that there is no decree, I still have to bring Tang envoys to the door. The gods and Buddhas of the heavens will bless you, but don't let the prince kill these people again.

He was convinced that the prince didn't look down on the Wa people, but hated them, and he didn't know what was going on.When he was on the grassland, the prince also advocated healing the wounds of the captive herdsmen. When he got out of the grassland, he saw the envoy sent to Tang Dynasty, but he held on to the beginning of the letter of credence. He borrowed Li Jing's military order to kill the envoy sent to Tang Dynasty.

After getting off work, the more he thought about it, the more frightened he became. Tang Jian could only find two helpers to go to the academy together.

Now that the college has completed the second batch of enrollment, the great Confucians who have become accustomed to the frequency of the college's teaching, although a little bit harder, can still handle it.Moreover, the battle in front of the academy made the academy completely famous, and great Confucians from all over the world came here admiringly, effectively supplementing the faculty.

In addition to these great Confucians, Li Chengqian also visited various military generals without hesitation, asked some veterans who were about to retire, and asked them to serve as coaches in the academy.Well, it's actually a physical education teacher.

After pointing fingers at the academy to settle down, Li Chengqian slipped to the river again and fished with Li Gang.
