According to Li Shimin's original meaning, the prince would not have a personal soldier.

However, after thinking about it repeatedly, Li Shimin still felt that it would be better to give Li Chengqian some troops. After all, a prince needs some face in the end. Prince Liu led more than 20,000 troops, if all of them were collected by the central government, it would not be good.

Yu Tai turned his head and hesitated: "Your Highness, do you want to divide two thousand?" The last general thinks, is it a little more? The son is still young, so it's okay to give him so much when he grows up. ”

"Just give him two thousand, and give him some more recruits."

Hearing this, Yu Tai nodded, slightly relieved.

The prince's 2,000 personal soldiers, if they are stationed around Chang'an, are not a weak force. If someone with ulterior motives bewitches the prince, something is likely to happen.

However, if it's a recruit, it's fine. In Yu Tai's eyes, only those veterans who have survived all the way from the chaotic times at the end of the Sui Dynasty have real combat power.

....

Li Chengqian didn't know that he was plotted by his father, and at this time he was waiting at the gate of the East Palace, ready to greet Mr. Li Gang.

The old gentleman wants to live in the East Palace, and Li Chengqian is actually very welcome.

The East Palace is really too big, such a big East Palace, but only the eldest grandson Baoqing can talk to him. Those old eunuchs, although they are not mute, but as long as they see him, they will grovel, and it is not interesting at all.

What's more, if the old gentleman comes over, he wants to open a small stove in the kitchen, and he can be a little more open, right?

As soon as the time arrived, there were carriages to bring the old gentleman's belongings to the East Palace.

The old gentleman lost his son in middle age, and it was his grandson Li Anren who took care of him at this time.

The Li family did not make any connections in the court, so Li Anren did not enter the office, but inherited the family education, and his reputation in Shilin was also good.

Helping his grandfather walk into the East Palace, when he saw Li Chengqian, Li Anren was about to salute.

How could Li Chengqian get a man in his thirties to salute him, and quickly let the eldest grandson Baoqing pull him up.

"Mr. An Ren is also a very influential scholar in Shilin, how dare this king bear your courtesy."

Li Anren still insisted on giving a salute, and after getting up, he said: "Grandfather is going to live in the East Palace permanently, and the grass people can't come more in order to avoid suspicion." Therefore, it is up to the son to take care of his grandfather. As grandchildren, grass people should do this salute. ”

As soon as Li Chengqian wanted to say a few polite words, Li Gang slapped Li Anren's neck: "Okay, it's like the old man will die in the East Palace." Worry about it, okay, get out. ”

Although the old gentleman is old, he still has a lot of strength. Li Chengqian obviously saw that Li Anren was grinning, but instead of dodging, he ....

Greeted a little higher?

Tsk, the old man really can't afford to mess with him.

drove away Li Anren, Li Gang stretched out his hand and asked Li Chengqian to help him, grinning toothlessly and laughing: "Boy, the old man will live in your East Palace from today, and now I want to drive the old man away, but it's still too late." ”

Li Chengqian waved his hand again and again: "What is Master Li talking about, you can live in the East Palace, it's too late for the kid to be happy, how can I drive you out?" ”

Holding Li Gang's arm, Li Chengqian's heart was also happy.

In fact, it would be better for Li Gang to live in.

Some of his ideas that belong to modern people, in the eyes of the ancients, are very rebellious. There is such an old gentleman who talks about speculation, which is much better than Du Zhenglun and Zhang Yanlun. Moreover, with the old gentleman here, at least the blind old man will not send other teachers over.

The biggest shield!

walked all the way into the study and helped the old gentleman to the brocade before Li Chengqian knelt and sat aside.

This brocade collapsed and the eunuchs in the palace moved here this morning. Affection for an eighty-year-old man is more popular than him, the prince's own son.

After leaning on the brocade, Li Gang knocked on his leg and said with emotion: "It's useless, when there was a famine in the early years, the old man once searched the three mountains in one day to look for wild vegetables. But now, walking a few steps is like torture, and I can't wait to chop off these two legs. ”

Li Chengqian picked up a drawing from the case and handed it to the old gentleman.

After the old gentleman took it, he saw that a drawing had been drawn on it with a very thin brush, which was a chair-like thing.

There is nothing new about the chair, but with two large and two small wheels on it, it is a little interesting. In particular, the large wheels on both sides of the seat are too big.

Seeing the old gentleman's puzzled gaze, Li Chengqian explained: "This is a drawing drawn by the kid, I call it a 'wheelchair'. Just ask the craftsman who will be the supervisor to make the wheelchair, and you can move it by sitting on it and turning the wheel with both hands. If you are tired, the kid or someone else can push you around in the back, which is very convenient. ”

After listening to Li Chengqian's explanation and looking at the drawings again, Li Gang smiled and nodded: "It's a bit interesting, but I bothered you, if this thing can really replace the old man's legs to walk, the old man will also give you a return gift." ”

Li Chengqian handed the drawings to the eldest grandson Baoqing and asked him to go to the palace to find his father's will.

Although he drew the drawings, if they were sent to the prison, there was no doubt that people would not even be able to bird him, and would only think it was a child's nonsense.

The drawings of the wheelchair, Li Chengqian still hesitated again and again before he completely painted the appearance of the later generations. Originally, he just wanted to make four wheels, and someone would just push them. But considering the old gentleman's old and strong character, Li Chengqian still chose to copy it.

Judging from the fact that the old gentleman has insisted on walking by himself until now, he prefers to be self-reliant. Although this wheelchair is also a tool trick, if the old gentleman can use his own strength to move, he can better accept it.

After the eldest grandson Baoqing left, the old gentleman picked up a piece of paper on the brocade, handed it to Li Chengqian, and said: "You have already read "Getaway", I heard Kong Yingda say, you have also read a lot of Analects, the old man thought about it, and then found such an article for you, tell me your opinion. ”

Li Chengqian took the paper, and it was full of majestic words, compared with his dog-like words, this text is not an exaggeration to be an heirloom.

Although the words are beautiful, after seeing the content, Li Chengqian's face twitched, and the reason is that he is very familiar with this article. 、

Mencius's "Born in Sorrow and Died in Peace"!

A few days ago, he still sighed that the "bitter mind" came to me, but he didn't expect that the old gentleman would show it to him again today.

Rubbing his temples, Li Chengqian didn't finish reading it, so he said: "This article, in fact, the disciple has read it." In the disciple's view, the previous one is not quite right, and in the whole text, in fact, only the sentence 'born in sorrow and died in peace' is the most reasonable. ”
