Chapter 209: Shield
In front of Li Tai, Li Shimin became an unreasonable father.
The guards fell to their knees, sweating like rain.
Li Chengqian hurriedly stopped in front and said: "Father, this is none of his business, it is estimated that Qingque was burned by the glaze, and it was the son who sent him to the glaze workshop, please punish the father!" β
Seeing that the imperial brother admitted his mistake, Li Tai hurriedly said: "Father, it's not about the eldest brother, it's Qingque who has to pass." Erchen just wanted to see the changes in the glass after leaving the kiln, so he accidentally put his hand on it. It's nothing, Doctor Sun's medicine is very effective, and Erchen is no longer in pain now. β
Seeing that the prince was protecting the guards, and Qingque was protecting the prince, Li Shimin waved his hand angrily, indicating that he was very angry. But when he turned around, there was a smile on his lips. It's very good, brother and brother Gong have always been their most absurd dreams, and I can't imagine seeing them in my sons.
Seeing that the emperor left with the great Confucians, Li Chengqian looked at Li Tai's hand, frowned, and said: "Why are you so careless, Qingque, don't make do with it in a dangerous place if it's okay, have you seen your brother and I lean on the kiln?" β
It may be that the pain has appeared again, Li Tai grinned and said: "I found that as long as the iron powder in the material is sucked out, the glass will be a lot less green after it is made, but in the end, I still can't tell what is in the sand, and the glass plate made is estimated to be a little thinner." Your diamond is very easy to use, it can easily scratch marks on the glass, and it is much better than the previous knife to carve little by little. β
You can't talk to a guy who thinks he's extraordinary, because he's always going to shake out all his findings to prove he's smart. However, Li Tai is also really smart.
The venue outside the college has been completely removed, and the signboard of "Zhenguan College" inscribed by the old gentleman himself is still hanging high there, invisibly, with a little more calm feeling.
Ten years old is a dividing range, under the age of ten is too demonic, then the word will become a noun, and after the age of ten to show it, it will become an adjective, as for after the age of twenty, it is a positive word.
The chefs of the academy are all trained by the kitchen of the East Palace, and their skills will naturally not disappoint, and the emperor's banquet was held very successfully in the academy. In addition, seeing his son's learning environment with his own eyes, and hearing Da Confucian's evaluation of his son's progress, it is even more enjoyable.
Many people were drunk, and the emperor, who was doubly happy, was even more drunk and had to stay in the academy.
It's just that when Li Chengqian found out that his fan was stolen by the eldest grandson Chong and given it to the eldest grandson Wuji, he caught him and beat him up for a long time.
There is the propaganda of the eldest grandson Wuji, especially this is something researched by the prince, and the folding fan has gained great popularity in Chang'an.
The fan bone of sandalwood and the pendant of white jade, no matter how you look at it, you feel magnificent. As for the blank fan, it is very popular. If you feel that you are good at danqing and good calligraphy, you can write it yourself; And if you get an inscription from a celebrity, it's even more refreshing. This trend spread, so much so that those who didn't have a folding fan in their hands were embarrassed to say that they were scholars.
After getting another large amount of income, Li Chengqian had to make a bitter face and start the construction of Zhangluo Palace.
The emperor's father admired the scenery around the academy very much, so he ordered the construction of a palace here for recreational residence.
The palace is the temporary residence of the emperor when he travels, and many large cities, such as Luoyang and Yangzhou, will be built. However, the college is not very far from Chang'an, and it is time-consuming and labor-intensive to build here, and it is not of much significance!
Wei Zheng, who had been silent, was about to jump out of the organization, but saw that the emperor did not call Li Daliang, the secretary of the Ministry of Works, but told the prince.
Well.... That's it! Anyway, the crown prince paid for it, as long as he didn't waste the people's fat and people's ointment, Wei Zheng didn't care how much the construction of the palace would cost.
The Ministry of Works does not pay for it, and it does not provide free labor, but it is still necessary to work, and the construction of the palace is beyond the scope of the prisoner's ability. Li Daliang specially came to the college to discuss the matter of the craftsman's labor, and he didn't know what kind of promise he had gotten, and when he returned to the Ministry of Engineering, his mouth was grinning.
After finishing these trivial matters, Li Chengqian followed Li Gang's side, almost not leaving an inch.
The old gentleman has eaten less and less during this time, and he was able to leave the wheelchair for a while, but now he can only walk a few steps with the wheelchair.
The weakness of an old man is not accumulated over time, but as if he could still run and jump the day before, and completely collapsed the next day.
Sun Simiao has seen it many times, and the diagnosis is still the same, which makes Li Chengqian very worried. γ
Birth, old age, sickness and death, this is what people must experience, no one can live forever, the age of the old gentleman is already one in ten thousand.
The sweltering heat of summer is irritating, and only by the river can one get a rest. Set up a fishing rod deck chair under the pergola, and then you can lie down and take a nap.
"Why is he like the old man at a young age, Fang Xiaoquan is a rare moral gentleman, people just stay to teach you, it's not good to listen to him in front of him, what kind of fish to catch with the old man!"
Stretching his waist, Li Chengqian smiled and said: "The old man saw that our college had a printing workshop, so he was going to write a book, which was called "The Complete Solution of Fake Characters". According to his old man's words, a person like a disciple will let the teacher lose his life, or don't harm him, come back and harm you! β
Li Gang smiled slightly, and said with a look of reminiscence: "What is not a longevity, it's all nonsense." When the old man married his wife, others said that Li Gang's wife had high cheekbones and was a husband of Kefu, but the old man still lived to the present. β
"Hehe, if Yuan Tiangang is here, maybe you will say that your life is hard, and my wife will not move you."
"How can you joke with your elders at a young age, but it's your temperament that the old man likes, and you can say whatever you want. Since you know that those monks and Taoists are, don't believe in any words about longevity. The old man is eighty-three this year, and no matter how many people cry and shout, they can't live to the age. Even if he dies one day, he is not dying. Anren has already married a family, and although he gave birth to two girls, he will still have a son sooner or later. If you have it, you will be worthy of your ancestors. In addition, he has had a high-ranking official in this life, and now he has become your teacher, what is the old man not satisfied with! "Mobile One second to remember β.\B\\\\.\\ for you to provide wonderful \ novel readingγ
The more energetic a person is, the more open he will be to life and death. The old gentleman's fearlessness is not the fearlessness of a brave man, but a downplay of life and death.
"You, don't always scare yourself, didn't Daochang Sun say, your body is fine. The disciple is only eleven this year, you can hold on for a few more years, and when the disciple gets married, you will hug the disciple and grandson, and it is not too late to want to die! β
Li Gang smiled, put the hat on his head, and after a while, there was a sound of snoring.
instructed the guards to carefully take down the fishing rod that the old gentleman had caught, and Li Chengqian also leaned on the recliner and began to rest.
Companionship may be 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, which made many officials feel that the rules were broken, and they didn't know who started it, anyway, the impeachment was never broken.
Li Shimin naturally knew that the prince's behavior was inappropriate, but considering Li Gang, the only thing he could do was to leave these impeachment notes in the middle.
If the emperor does not send it, he refuses to answer, and the officials in the court should understand this little thing. It's just that there are two bastards who not only don't give up, but also go out of class to impeach in class, which is too much!
Thinking back to the origins of these two officials, Li Shimin on the throne was about to be laughed at again.
The family still doesn't give up! suffered a loss at the hands of the prince, and always wanted to get it back once. The prince's stay in the East Palace is a good point of attack, but don't these people know the reason for it?
There is no need for him to reprimand him personally, because Zhang Jian has already stood up.
"Ridiculous! As the vice president of Zhenguan Academy, what happened to the prince living in the academy? Not to mention that Taishi Li is not in good health and needs to be taken care of by Sun Daochang. As a disciple, the prince accompanies the teacher, but it is filial piety, is the two of you want to attack the prince's filial piety? β
Tang Jian's voice was very loud, and the one who could roar so loudly above the court must be from the perspective of victory.
However, Lao Tang is indeed victorious, benevolence, righteousness and filial piety, etc., as long as he moves out, he can be invincible. Datang founded the country with filial piety, who dares to say a "no" in front of the word "filial piety"? The emperor didn't dare! You must know that even if Li Shimin kills his brother and prisoner father, he will not dare to play one less scene in front of the public. After the fall of the Eastern Turks, even Li Yuan had to come over in person to participate, and took the initiative to cooperate with his son to beat gongs and drums, staging a great drama of father's love and filial piety.
has to act, because as long as the emperor does not support the emperor, there will be many people who will seize this point and make a big fuss, and even rebel because of this.
No one dared to quarrel with Tang Jian, standing in front of filial piety, he only bowed and saluted.
The two officials rolled back to the team in a gloomy manner, and Tang Jian began to talk about his own business:
In addition to the Japanese state, the envoys of the Western Turks, Tuyuhun, Tubo, Xue Yantuo, Goryeo, Silla, Baekje, Yao, Gaochang, Dangxiang and other places have all gathered in Chang'an, and ask Your Majesty to meet one or two at your leisure. In addition, the people who sent the Tang Dynasty envoy to the Yutian spade hope to be able to read the classics of my Tang Dynasty, or worship the famous house as a teacher. After hearing that the prince fought all the famous families with his own strength, he hoped to study in the academy. β
When he heard the first half, not only the emperor, but even the generals laughed heartily. The victory of the war is the biggest face of Datang. The fall of the Eastern Turks was a deterrent to all the countries in this land. I believe that these envoys came to Datang with the most humble attitude, the most luxurious tribute, and the most humble prayers.
But when he heard the second half, Li Shimin, who was on the throne, couldn't help but rub his temples. The Wa Kingdom was far away in the East, and it was useless to take it, and it couldn't even go up to the list of Datang's captures. Such a country is still of some use because it is also used to contain Silla Baekje, and even Goryeo. As the suzerain, it is also a good thing that Datang can gain the respect of the Japanese state.
The classics of the Central Plains have always been something that the barbarians yearn for, and since the envoys sent by the Japanese State to the Tang Dynasty had a humble attitude, it was not a big deal to reward them, and they could even go further in the relationship between the suzerain's vassals and become teachers and students. But.... I don't know what's going on, the prince seems to look down on the Wa State alone, and it can be seen that the envoys of the Wa State are going to be hacked to death near the border despite Tang Jian's obstruction.
Now that the envoys sent by the Japanese State to the Tang Dynasty want to study in the academy, I am afraid that they will return with a feather!
Forget it, what's the matter! It's better to let Tang Jian deal with it himself!
Thinking of this, Li Shimin said: "Tang Qing, since the envoys of the Japanese State have this need, you can take them to the academy to try it." Don't look at me as the dean of Zhenguan Academy, the power is in the hands of the vice president of the prince. By the way, when you go, help me ask, my salary, no, the academy is called salary, you ask me about my salary, when will the prince send it? β
The ministers talked a lot about the crown prince's behavior in power, but after hearing the emperor's words, they didn't say anything more. Obviously, the emperor doesn't care about the fact that he is not as good as the prince in the academy, it seems that there is still the idea of testing the prince in it, so it is better not to talk too much.
After receiving the emperor's order, Tang Jian, who returned to his cushion, smiled bitterly. He went out to play in the hope of getting the emperor's will, as long as there is the emperor's will, even if the prince hates the envoys of the Japanese kingdom, he will obey it. Now that there is no will, I have to send Tang envoys to the door, and the gods and Buddhas will bless me, but don't let the prince kill these people again.
He decided that the prince did not look down on the Japanese people, but disgusted 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 captured herdsmen, and when he got out of the grassland, he saw the Tang envoy, but he grabbed the beginning of the national letter and used Li Jing's military order to kill the Tang envoy.
After a business trip, the more he thought about it, the more scared he became, Tang Jian could only find two helpers and go to the academy together.
Now that the college has completed the second batch of enrollment, the Confucian who have become accustomed to the frequency of the college's lectures are still able to cope with it, although it is a little difficult. Moreover, the battle in front of the college made the college completely famous, and the great Confucians from all over the world came to visit, which effectively supplemented the faculty.
In addition to these great Confucians, Li Chengqian also did not shy away from visiting various generals of the military and asked some veterans who were about to be discharged from the army to serve as instructors at the academy. Well, it's actually a physical education teacher.
After pointing fingers to settle down the college, Li Chengqian slipped to the river again and fished with Li Gang.
Now the old gentleman likes fishing very much, and he doesn't fish much, and he brings back at most one a day, either steamed or braised every day.
The hats of the master and apprentice were buckled on their faces, and they spent the afternoon in the breeze by the river.
was whipped in a daze, and he was angry, who dared to slap the prince's head?
got up and was about to get angry, when he saw the angry look on his face from the eldest grandson Wuji, Li Chengqian honestly shrank back again.
Today he didn't wear the prince's skin, and the eldest grandson Wuji didn't wear an official uniform, and he would be a "nephew" after they met, and if he resisted, he would probably be beaten.
The ancients were like this, a person always had multiple identities, and what kind of identity was used to treat whom, all of them were different.
Sitting on the chair let out by Li Chengqian, seeing that Li Gang did not wake up, the eldest grandson Wuji lowered his voice and said: "Good young man, he insists on fishing and sleeping here, what kind of body is it." The great Confucian Fang Xiaoquan taught you to guard against arrogance and rashness, have you forgotten? β
Li Chengqian hurriedly bowed down and said, "I don't dare to forget, it's just that Master Li has been depressed recently, and he can only serve left and right." β
After speaking, as soon as he raised his waist, he saw two more people coming in, one was Wei Zheng and the other was Tang Jian. looked at the Japanese people who were surrounded by soldiers led by the prince himself in the distance, nodding and hiding, and immediately figured it out.
Damn Tang Jian, he was definitely afraid that he would not be enough for one person, so he pulled these two people over as a shield.
wanted to get angry but couldn't start it, and when he saw the eldest grandson Wuji take out his folding fan and start fanning the wind, he was even more aggrieved.
Ink painting has not yet risen, I studied and studied, only barely painted a little charm, when the fan was completed, it was appreciated by the academy Confucian, Yang Du asked for two times but failed to get over, and was stolen by the eldest grandson Chong.
But there is no way, who let himself rob his diamond in the first place, and now he can only swallow this bitter fruit.
Among the three, only Tang Jian was wearing an official uniform, so the eldest grandson Wuji got up, gave up the chair to Tang Jian, and leaned against the pillar of the shed with Wei Zheng.
Behind such behavior, there is also a messy deep meaning, too lazy to let people tell.
Glancing at those Japanese people, Li Chengqian frowned, and said to Tang Jian: "Gong Ju is so calculating, he actually called his uncle and Doctor Wei to come, could it be that the two of them are not there, so they are not allowed to enter the academy?" β
Tang Jian wiped his cold sweat and said helplessly: "The lower officials invited Zhao Gong and Zheng Gong to accompany him, not because he was afraid that His Royal Highness would not allow them to enter the school, but because he was afraid that you would kill them all in anger!" Your Highness, we have something to say, how about asking your men to put away the crossbow? β
Helpless, Li Chengqian could only wave his hand and ask the archers on the bank of the river to put away the strong crossbow.
Don't look at him now outside the academy, he seems to be leisurely, and there are still more than 500 guards around, all of whom are elite soldiers led by the prince himself. It's just that unlike the swaggering guards of the forbidden army, as long as the guards led by the prince are hidden, it is difficult for ordinary people to find them. Only now, when an unknown team approaches, will they appear as if teleporting, and be ready to admonish the enemy.
The eldest grandson Wuji closed the folding fan, knocked on the palm of his hand and said: "Ju Guogong invited the two of us to come over and talk about it, so the old man doesn't have to press you as an uncle, Cheng Qian, tell me, why are you so wary of the Japanese people?" Although their attitude towards the kingdom is a little worse, it will not make you hate them so much! β
Poured two cups of tea from the small table between the recliners and handed them to Wei Zheng and the eldest grandson Wuji, and then took out the spare cups from the drawer and poured a cup for Tang Jian and himself.
After taking a sip of tea, Li Chengqian said: "Mr. Yao Silian, a Confucian of the college, likes to collect history books and various bells and tripods to trace history. In a record handed down from the Han Dynasty, it can be known that as early as the second year of Emperor Guangwu of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the envoy of the Wa Kingdom came to the Han Dynasty to worship, and Emperor Guangwu gave the envoy a golden seal and a purple award. In the tenth year of the Sui Dynasty, that dog or something guy was appointed to send Sui envoys to Sui, because of the phrase "the country of the rising sun leads to the country of the setting sun", which angered Emperor Yang, and he was expelled to return to the country the following year. β
The eldest grandson Wuji nodded: "You are right, although I have never heard of the events during the reign of Emperor Guangwu, but the name of the Wa Kingdom has been around for a long time, and I can believe it." β
Erudite is a necessary skill, not only the eldest grandson Wuji knows about it, but even Wei Zheng and Tang Jian also nodded.
