The head of a family rarely tells his family anything in person, but as long as it is what he tells him, it must be something that the family remembers firmly.

At the end of the Shangyuan Festival, after enjoying the glutinous rice balls and Lantern Festival distributed by the East Palace, the eldest sons of each family began to prepare to go to school, either with hope, or with worry, or with some other purpose....

On the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, Li Chengqian got up early in the morning.

After the morning exercise, before the meal was finished, the soldiers on duty came to report that many students from various provinces had gathered and were waiting in front of the door.

Stuffing a bun indiscriminately, Li Chengqian hurriedly went out to prepare to greet him.

If it's just after these nobles who entered the school, it's nothing, and the most important thing is that the person who is also going to come over today is the leader of the Chongwen Pavilion - Mr. Yu Shinan.

Yu Shinan, successively served as a writer, secretary and young supervisor, secretary supervisor, etc., one of the eighteen bachelors of the Qin Palace, and was named the Duke of Yongan County after Zhenguan.

Not to mention the title, even later generations will call him and Ouyang Xun, Chu Suiliang, and Xue Ji the "Four Masters of the Early Tang Dynasty", and they can also know that this is not simple.

At the age of sixty, although it is not as good as Li Gang's eighty-one, there are really few people who may compare seniority and prestige with him. If he is rude in front of this person, tsk, even the emperor's father will not let him go.

It was still a step too late, and when Li Chengqian trotted all the way to the palace gate, a little old man with a long beard was already commanding the team and reprimanding a few people who were fighting in front of the East Palace gate.

The people who come to school are all eldest sons and grandchildren, who is not a well-known figure in the world. But in front of this person, even Li Jinghuan could only bend down and salute and be scolded honestly. If you talk back, it will be at least the punishment for starting the family law. Fastest update... / .. /

After training all the eldest sons to be honest, Yu Shinan turned around, and waited for Li Chengqian to finish sorting out his clothes before giving a salute: "Old minister Yu Shinan, I have seen His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

Li Chengqian hurriedly stepped forward to support him, but instead bent down and saluted: "When I was in the Hidden Mansion before, I always longed to receive your teachings, and now I have got my wish. You came to the East Palace for the first time today, and you are late to greet you, and I hope Mr. is not strange! ”

Yu Shinan forgave the prince for being late, although he has a high status in the academic world, he can put his position clearly. Countless facts have proved that everyone who learns is a scum in front of the imperial power. When people are in a good mood and need to act, they can do enough pomp and circumstance to respect knowledge. But once that time period has passed, a well-educated Confucian is no different from an ordinary passerby.

Inviting the old gentleman in, the two eunuchs were just about to perform their duties and come over to search their bodies, but they were glared back by Li Chengqian.

Coughing lightly, Yu Shinan did not enter directly, but took the initiative to accept the eunuch's inspection.

The gentleman has checked it, how can the people in the back be exceptional, they all know that the rules of the palace are big, and they can only be beaten by the eunuchs with a bitter face.

But no matter how much torture it was, it was worth it, and when they saw the magnificent building in front of them, the trace of resentment in their hearts suddenly disappeared.

Chongwen Hall has invested a lot, and it will be overseered, so there is no cutting corners.

Although the building specifications in the palace are very strict, as long as the height does not exceed the emperor's and empress's dormitory and the Taiji Palace, nothing else.

The two-story wooden building, carved beams and painted columns, costs a lot at a glance.

Compared with the dilapidated Hongwen Pavilion, this Chongwen Pavilion is more than a step stronger!

The structure of the Chongwen Pavilion is actually quite complicated, but at the suggestion of Li Chengqian, there are signs after entering the door, marking the usefulness of the left and right rooms.

Entering the door to the left is the study room, don't look at the eldest son who enrolled today, but the number is only about 20.

Those who don't have the title of Duke in the family are not qualified to enter, and as for the marquis, they don't even dare to think about it.

The only exception is the bull's sight. Although Niu Jinda is only the county prince, Li Chengqian, as the master of the East Palace, wants to make up who he wants to make up, it is just a matter of one sentence.

After entering the classroom and waiting for all the gentlemen to sit down, Li Chengqian first invited Yu Shinan to speak.

Clearing his throat, Yu Shinan said solemnly: "Old man Yu Shinan, I think you all know. Since the old man is under the emperor's order, he will naturally teach you all. Say it in advance, the old man doesn't care which country you are the eldest son of, but if you have stubborn behavior, the old man will clear you out, and he will not tolerate mercy, can you listen? ”

Changsun Chong and the others naturally hurried to respond.

Li Chengqian couldn't help but sweat for these eldest sons, the old gentleman said that Yu Shinan was cowardly and weak, but he had a strong temperament and dared to admonish, which seemed to be true.

He is just a county duke, but in front of these future dukes, there is no sense of tolerance.

After finishing speaking, Yu Shinan stepped aside and gave up his position to Li Chengqian.

Standing on the stool behind the podium, Li Chengqian said: "The establishment of the Chongwen Pavilion, although the father said that he would find some study companions for Lonely, so that he would not be lonely, but in fact, this is a preferential treatment for you, otherwise, just find a Confucian to teach you, and there is no need to invite Mr. Yu over." The reason why you can stand here is because your fathers are all heroes of my Datang, except for this, I don't think you are any kind of characters.

According to the laws of the Tang Dynasty, the son inherits the title of his father, and your father is the founding prince of the country, fortunately, you can not only get the title for no reason, but also avoid a reduction in the title. Hit the luck! Even if one of you is a fool, you will be able to be a master in the future, and you will have no worries about food and clothing. ”

Speaking of which, although there was no commotion among the eldest sons who were originally suppressed by Yu Shinan, some people already showed disdain at him.

We are all white and white, what is this, you are white and dethroned!

Noticing the sight of several cousins and cousins, Li Chengqian coughed dryly: "Ahem, in fact, such words are also talking about being alone." Lone has always felt that getting something for nothing is not a virtue, but a shame. Therefore, in addition to learning Diao from Master Li, Lone also learned Diao martial arts from General Niu and Weiguo Gong, and never quit for a day.

As a prince, Lone has worked so hard, what reason do you have to mess around? So, study hard in the lonely Chongwen Pavilion, strive to learn to be famous, and after you go out, you can also use your own efforts in exchange for the results. What do you guys think? ”

Under the stage, Changsun Chong and others all bowed their hands and said "yes".

Yu Shinan glanced at the prince and nodded with satisfaction.

Those present were the eldest sons of various princes and county kings, and they were one of the top lucky people in Datang. Moreover, they are at the age of blood and strength, and it is better to fight bravely.

The prince's remarks can be said to hit the bull's-eye, as long as they arouse their desire to perform, then he, the owner of the pavilion, can be much better.

After stepping down, Li Chengqian sat down in the first place, and raised his head to listen to the lecture like Li Tai and others.

Although he has Li Gang, a teacher, this is his chance to get along with a famous family. According to the old gentleman, this was a way for the emperor to show his favor, and at the same time it was a convenience for him to exercise.

In the future, as long as no one rebels, it can be said that the mainstay of the next court will be after these famous ministers. Even if they are not in a high position and have the shadow of their parents, they will not be in a bad position. In any case, as the next emperor, he must know something about them from now on.

Because these people are literate, Yu Shinan's task is much easier.

Because there are not two kinds of enlightenment readings in this era, today I am still talking about the Analects.

While lecturing the class, Yu Shinan watched the reactions of these students.

Although the prince was listening to the lecture, he didn't seem to be interested in it at all, and he obviously knew everything about this kind of coursework.

Wei Wang Li Tai simply deserted, and the paper on the table said "This king has already learned", and he turned it over and put it away, extremely arrogant.

Li Ke, the king of Shu, like the crown prince, seems to have learned.

The rest of these students, none of them deserted, even Cheng Chuhei, who also resisted drowsiness as much as possible and listened carefully.

In the land of China, even if it has reached the present, knowledge is still in the hands of a few people. Therefore, the heads of these big families know the value of knowledge. With the ears of their parents, these students will not be passive in their studies.

After almost three quarters of time passed, the sound of a small bell suddenly sounded in the depths of the Chongwen Pavilion, which not only startled a few dozing students, but also frightened Yu Shinan.

It was only then that Li Chengqian remembered that he had not explained to him the timetable for classes in Chongwenguan.

Standing up, Li Chengqian took out a piece of paper from his arms and handed it to Yu Shinan, and said with a wry smile: "Mr. Yu, I was negligent and forgot to hand over the class schedule to you." The duration of each class is three quarters, and after class, students are given a moment to deal with personal problems and to lift their spirits. At your age, you need to drink some tea and take a break, don't you? ”

After taking the class schedule, Yu Shinan read it, although he was a little dissatisfied with the long lunch break and the big recess time, but thinking about his old legs, he could only nod and agree.

Outside the door, a eunuch entered and led Yu Shinan to the office, where there was fragrant tea that had been prepared.

As soon as the teacher left, the students would go straight to the fryer as usual.

The eldest grandson Chong and Chai Zhewei relied on their cousins, and rushed over to praise Li Chengqian's "class time".

You know, when they are at home, they don't have time to rest. It starts in the morning after breakfast and ends in the evening when it gets dark.

"Cheng Qian! Attaboy! My brother thought that he would have to endure hardships when he entered the Chongwen Pavilion, but he didn't expect you to make up a break time. ”

After class, Cheng Chuhei and Liu Renshi (the eldest son of Liu Hongji, the Duke of Kui Guo) returned to their souls. The two of them jumped high and left the classroom, and they were about to go out to breathe.

Chongwen Hall is not like a palace, it can't be easily opened, so Li Chengqian also installed a coal stove here, and the room is not ordinarily warm.

The eldest grandson Chong moved his arm and asked, "Cheng Qian, do you have weapons in this East Palace?" My brother has been sitting for so long, and his whole body is weak. ”

Not only does Changsun Chong feel like this, but he is also a bull on the side; Nodding his head again and again.

"Okay, I'll ask the guards of the East Palace to bring you some weapons."

Take a group of eager sons and buddies out and go to the empty space north of the Chongwen Pavilion.

Under Li Chengqian's order, it didn't take long for the guards to bring a large number of various weapons that had not been opened.

At the same time, there were more than a dozen guards who led the court, and they naturally isolated the venue from the prince. Obviously, it is not a problem to play weapons twice in the East Palace, but if you play in front of the prince, you have to control the distance.

Changsun Chong had already been surprised by this, took out a horizontal knife from the weapon, pulled it out and began to slash.

After just a few clicks, Li Chengqian couldn't help but applaud with everyone.

Changsun Chong's every sword is very powerful, and he can vaguely see the way of the army's sword technique.

Just look at his solid lower plate and smart waist. With solid arms, you know that he has worked weekdays.

"Hmph, I'll do it too!"

Cheng stepped forward and took out a horse lance from his weapon. Even if he is a famous horse, how can his son not have two sons.

Under the horse lance drill, it attracted a large number of applause.

Even if this is compared, the people who came out, including Niu Jianhu, found a weapon and began to move.

Although Li Chengqian also wanted to step forward, but seeing the guards in front of him, he could only shrug his shoulders and feel at ease as an audience.

Although the room was chaotic, if you look closely, you can see that none of these people are playing tricks. are all the sons of various families, who can not lack exercise? Even Niu Jianhu, who used to shrink in the house and couldn't come out, used a horizontal knife very seriously.

If you look closely, there is no simple character!

He took out a horizontal knife from the pile of weapons on one side, pulled it out and held it with one hand, and tried to slash it a few times.

I have to say that the Tang horizontal knife, as one of the most famous styles of cold weapons, is indeed outstanding.

The horizontal knife of the Tang Dynasty was actually changed from the ring head knife of the Han Dynasty, which was generally about 70 to 80 centimeters long, the blade length was between 50 and 60 centimeters, the thickness was about 6 to 8 millimeters, and the width was smaller than that of the actual Han knife, generally between three centimeters and four centimeters.

Stylistically, unless deliberately decorated, the horizontal knife looks like a wooden staff.

Try to bend the end of the knife on the ground, stretch out your foot and step on it.

The toughness of the horizontal knife is very good, and it bends so much that it can bounce back again. Unlike the scum imitation that the dean of later generations poured upside down, with a slight chop of the stake, the handle fell off.

The guards watched the prince giggle with a horizontal knife, but they didn't know what was happening, but no one dared to stop it.

It didn't take long for the class bell to ring again.

The students threw away their weapons and went back to the classroom screaming.

Although he showed a lot of disgust with Xuediao, no one really didn't care.

Li Chengqian also threw the horizontal knife to the guards and followed him into the room.

If nothing else, there will be a short lesson on Li Gang's next.

When a person is old, he is a teacher. After hearing that Yu Shinan was the only one to teach in Chongwen Hall, the old gentleman knocked on his wheelchair and strongly asked him to come in and teach. Otherwise, Li Chengqian, Li Tai, and Li Ke would not have left the study and would have come here to attend classes with Changsun Chong and others.
