The First National Preceptor of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 549

The Emperor has issued the decree, but the male protagonist cannot personally visit each person to provide guidance; he can only notify those who have already signed up.

Let them come to us.

They even had the housekeeper tidy up the backyard.

His yard wasn't very big.

It's definitely not feasible to pack so many students at once.

So we had to clear out the backyard.

It is provided for those students to read.

The next day, Li Er came to his courtyard.

Upon seeing the courtyard he had cleared out, he immediately said, "This won't do. Although this courtyard isn't small, it's still not enough for so many students to come at once."

"Somebody come!"

He immediately summoned his father-in-law, who was standing behind him.

"Go and investigate whether there are any vacant houses next door."

Upon hearing Li Er's instructions, the father-in-law quickly went out to carry them out.

During this period, Li Er stayed in Xu Tian's study.

He looked through all the books on the desk.

"Still worried about the disaster in the south?"

Xu Tian nodded.

"Although it has been resolved, we still need to follow up on the follow-up matters."

Li Er nodded.

He was also very satisfied with the things Xu Tian was concerned about.

"You've worked so hard, Xu Aiqing!"

As he spoke, he sighed softly again.

"Yes! This matter does indeed require follow-up investigation. This time, troubles have occurred in both the north and the south, causing people to be displaced. Moreover, so many things have happened after they entered the capital."

Xu Tian was quite surprised to hear Li Er say this.

He hadn't expected that Li Er would know about this.

And without making a sound.

It seems there are several reasons for this.

Xu Tian felt that Li Er was also facing difficulties.

They had to keep an eye on national affairs and also manage the relationships between the officials.

Because of Li Er's connections, the father-in-law directly spent money to have a new courtyard built in a neighboring courtyard.

"Lord Xu, this is the key to the courtyard over there. Since I don't know how to use it, you'll have to check it yourself. His Majesty has already instructed that you can tell me if you need anything."

Li Er simply left his eunuchs here.

After hearing his father-in-law say this, Xu Tian asked Song Ren to take the key and then decided to go and take a look.

He drew up the design himself and created a special place for students to study in the adjacent courtyard.

In just a few days, the courtyard was completely transformed into the design shown in the blueprints.

Xu Tian was very satisfied with the courtyard.

Moreover, Li Er directly bestowed this courtyard upon him.

He recruited a total of thirty students.

For Xu Tian, ​​this was already a lot.

After all, he was the only one teaching.

These scholars need to undergo further evaluation before they can be involved in the school.

Moreover, one must pass the assessment before officially becoming a student there.

After one round of assessments, it was discovered that the qualifications of these children of officials were inconsistent.

Xu Tian was quite satisfied with them.

He stood in the center of the school, facing the students.

He then called out the names of several students, and then asked one of them to recite the Analects.

"The Analects!"

Upon hearing this word, the student was immediately stunned.

He simply doesn't know how to do that.

Previously, I had only been trying to get by by following those students.

He never expected that Xu Tian would call him out alone to recite.

This is really awkward.

How could he possibly recite the Analects?

He couldn't even pronounce the Three Character Classic correctly.

Completely bewildered.

"Is it not pleasant to learn and practice what you have learned?"
