The concubine was distressed and hurriedly pulled Li Qing up, complaining that the oath he had made was too heavy, Li Qing didn't care, as long as he didn't break the oath, he wouldn't answer the oath, no matter how poisonous the oath was, it was for others to hear.

Emperor Taizu nodded with satisfaction, took a piece of gold inlaid jade from his arms, and continued: "My name is Li Chu, and your mother's name is Yang Taizhen. This is the seal I use for calligraphy on weekdays, and you must keep it close to you, and you must not give it to others. When you return to Beijing, if the two of us are still in Beijing, I will look for you; If the two of us are not in Beijing, you can take this seal to Xue Dongwei's grandfather, and he will tell me and your mother where we are. “

Li Qing took the seal, the seal was square, five centimeters high and two centimeters wide, and it was obvious that there were traces of use. The seal is inlaid with gold wires, which cover the original carved patterns on the jade, which also has a unique flavor.

Li Qing glanced at it and asked, "What is the word written on it?" “

Emperor Taizu said: "Let you dance with knives and guns all day long, you don't even know the seal characters, and when you return to Beijing in the future, I will ask the master to teach you." This is the seal I use for calligraphy, remember that you should not use it for personal use. In fact, he had long known that Li Qing only knew the block letters and line letters, and he didn't know any other fonts, and he was strange for a long time when he first heard about it.

Li Qing also knows that the 'seal' is used in seal characters, and he also has a private seal. He only learned regular script from Wang Wensheng back then, just because regular script was an official character. The regular script is written very slowly, and the people use it on weekdays, and the eight points of the line are the regular script, so Li Qing only knows the regular script, and does not know how to write. If it is writing, Li Qing can only write block letters, and the writing is not very good, just because of Li Qing's writing, Wang Wensheng had to worry about gray hair back then.

Li Qing hummed and put it in his arms.

Emperor Taizu continued: "Since you are my daughter, it means that your life will not be ordinary, this time you went to the border to help me deal with some government affairs, and I will arrange for you to study some political affairs in the court from tomorrow until you leave." ”

Li Qing looked at the father he had just recognized with wide eyes, thinking that he had heard it right, whether he was fighting his father or his father fighting his daughter when he fell to the ground. Busy asked, "Is it too late for me to return now?" “

Emperor Taizu looked at Li Qing without any expression, and his momentum was not angry but mighty. Li Qing looked at his new father and said tremblingly: "Okay, okay, when I didn't say it, I just learned." “

Since then, Li Qing has to accompany Zhu Biao to practice swordsmanship every morning, and then have breakfast with Emperor Taizu and his wife.

After lunch, Li Qing and Zhu Biao and other military attachés had to make strategic arrangements for the current border passes, and sometimes they had to talk about the situation at the border passes.

After dinner, Li Qing had to discuss the situation in the government with the civil officials.

None of the officials expected that Emperor Taizu would cultivate a member of the army in such a way, and what was even more unexpected was the talent shown by Li to join the army. They didn't expect that Li Senjun was extremely sensitive to the pattern of the court, and he also had great ideas about governing the country, and many of the questions raised could be studied in depth.

Li Qing is very serious in studying, he cherishes every opportunity to study, it may be that he rarely has the opportunity to study in two lifetimes. Not to mention, this is the first time he has truly understood the generation he is in.

They marched all the way to Zhengzhou, where they were going to part ways, and Li Qing thought that they were going to part ways here, so they stayed in Zhengzhou for fifteen days.

The civil and military officials talked eloquently in front of Li Qing, and expressed all their opinions and opinions, but deliberately avoided mentioning the hussar general.

On the fifteenth day of Emperor Taizu's stay in Zhengzhou, he took Li Qing's homework.

Emperor Taizu wants to test what Li Qing has learned in the past half a month. A number of officials said that they also wanted to sit in on the hearing, and they also wanted to know the results of their hard work in the past half a month. Emperor Taizu directly approved it and asked them to listen on both sides.

Li Qing said in front of everyone: "If there is anything radical in the disciple's words, the teachers will go in the left ear and out the right ear." "Li Qing has been known as a teacher to everyone for more than half a month, and everyone is very useful.

Emperor Taizu said: "What you say today will not come out of a word, you can do whatever you want, there is no need to shy away." ”

Li Qing looked at this domineering and outstanding father, thinking of his own father who loved him since he was a child, and his stepfather who was the main one in everything, his heart was extremely sweet, and it was actually good to think that he had more fathers.

Li Qing walked to the center of the hall, motioned for everyone to sit down, and then said: "Nowadays, the power of the imperial court can be described as a three-legged force, one is a group of pro-imperial factions headed by the prime minister, most of them are people left by Emperor Taizu back then, and they mainly assist the new emperor. The two legs are the old forces led by the nobles of the family, they are watching around, still looking for a team, they want to ensure the wealth and longevity of future generations. The three-legged is the power of relatives headed by the queen mother and the power cultivated by the emperor. ”

Everyone nodded and agreed, saying that what Li Qing said was very good.

Li Qing continued: "A one-legged force is loyal to the emperor with the prime minister, no, it should be said that it is loyal to the Tang Dynasty, with them can ensure that the Tang Dynasty has no worries for 20 years, but how old is the little emperor, what about 20 years later?" Of course, this problem is not something we should consider, this is left to the Emperor Taizu to worry about, maybe the Emperor Taizu is already arranging a way back for the little emperor. ”

Everyone had different expressions, and some people gloated a little. This is too straightforward, the main thing is that the guess is accurate, isn't the Emperor Taizu planning for the little emperor, but the only one who didn't guess is yourself.

Li Qing looked at everyone's reactions, thinking that he didn't seem to say anything wrong, he didn't delve into it and continued: "The two-legged forces are led by the nobles of the family, although these forces have not done much, but I think they are the moths of the Tang Dynasty, and they will slowly eat away at the Tang Dynasty in the long river of time, until the Tang Dynasty collapses." ”

Everyone began to discuss, and even Emperor Taizu didn't expect that Li Qing was so optimistic about these old forces, which reminded him of the Qin Dynasty in history.

Li Qing saw everyone talking and said: "You don't have to worry about this, these forces can't shake the foundation of Datang in a few decades, and there is no need to follow Shang Ying's example, there is no need to change the law, I just mentioned it casually." ”

When Emperor Taizu heard Li Qing say this, he put his mind at ease, although the Shang Ying reform of the year changed Daqin, Shang Ying was also sentenced to death. Although he recognized Li Qing for a purpose, he also wanted him to live well.
