Chapter 3 There was an earthquake

Li Er and Fang Xuanling were shocked in their hearts, they never expected that Li Feng would see the changes in Xuanwumen very thoroughly, and even more so in the long run.

"Is there anything you can do to fix this? Settle their brotherly cannibalism? Li Er asked.

Li Feng shook his head and said, "There is no good way, the key is education, reading."

Reading can enlighten the mind, reading can be reasonable, rational can be self-cultivation, self-cultivation is to be a man, to be virtuous is to gain, to be a man is to gain and lose, to be a man is bitter first and then sweet.

As long as these three points are achieved, I believe that the probability of fratricide will not occur again. ”

Li Er and Fang Xuanling's hearts were shocked again.

These two sentences are so philosophical, ordinary people can't think of them, even today's Confucians may not be able to think of them.

Li Er recovered from the shock, and his eyes dimmed a lot.

"Shopkeeper Xiao Li, what you said is very reasonable, but have you ever thought that the three princes may not admit defeat?"

Li Feng said: "Reading is different from reading, some people read just to read, and some people read for reason, for how to behave. It depends on how the teacher taught the three princes. ”

"If you teach, how would you teach?" Fang Xuanling asked.

Li Feng thought for a while and said, "If I teach, in addition to teaching them the content on the tree, I will also start from practice.

The main thing is that I will let my student abandon his original identity, even if it is the crown prince, he is just an ordinary student in front of me.

Like ordinary students, he will do his own laundry, cook his own food, make his own money, farm his own land, etc., and do everything by himself, not under the pretense of others. ”

"But they are princes, and they are nobles. How can these things be done? Fang Xuanling said.

Li Feng smiled and said: "It's because everyone thinks so in their hearts, and the three princes think so in their hearts, they will feel superior, and the emperor's throne is theirs, and no one can snatch it away."

In the end, they were bent on doing things for the throne, and even unscrupulous means to please their father.

If you want to cut off the source, it's best to let them know what kind of person the heir to the throne should be.

Another point, in fact, the position of the crown prince does not need to be established too early, you can ask Your Majesty to write a holy decree, put the name of the heir to the throne on the plaque of Taiji Palace, and wait until Your Majesty returns to the west, and then take out the holy decree and announce the world. ”

"Good way." The good way that Li Er said was the last way that Li Feng said.

As for the front, although he agrees, it is difficult to implement, or it is not something that can be solved in a while.

At the same time, a large stone fell on his heart.

Li Yuan also said this, and he predicted that Li Er's children would learn from Li Er and kill each other for the throne.

This is not what Li Er and the Manchu Dynasty Wenwu want to see, now it's okay, Li Feng gave a way, that is, not to set up a prince, and write the name of the heir to the throne on the back of the plaque, unless he dies, no one knows.

No one knows who the heir to the throne is, so no one will invest in them, and several princes will not be targeted.

Fang Xuanling also thinks that this is a good way, in this way, although several princes have guesses, they will not do too much, in case they are the heirs, but they do too much and cannot get the support of the ministers, it is not too wrong.

"Well, I can tell you anything else you want to know,"

Li Er chuckled and said, "Take what you can." I want to know if Datang will be smooth sailing in the next few years, you know? ”

Li Feng shook his head and said, "How can I know about things so far away, but I can make a bold guess if I get closer." ”

"Just you? The Qin Tianjian of the imperial court may not know, can you compare to other people's professionalism? Li Er felt that Li Feng was bragging.

"Hehe, there is a specialization in the art industry, I can't compare to them, I will, they don't know, don't say anything else, just say that I still understand some natural phenomena, such as swallows flying low, ants moving, fish out of the water, these phenomena indicate that it is going to rain, it may still be a torrential rain.

The water in the well is bubbling and smelling, the river water is muddy, the livestock are neighing, and the animals are rioting, which indicates that an earthquake is about to occur in this place.

There is also drought, it does not rain for several months, and the hot weather is the cause of the drought, and in my opinion, the drought is about to form, if you have the heart, you can inform the court of this matter, so that the court can prepare.

If the imperial court does nothing, then there will be millions of victims in Gyeonggi Province. ”

"Hehe, Li Feng, do you know that when your words reach the ears of the imperial court, this is to be punished. You can't talk nonsense about natural disasters, but what else is an earthquake? Li Er said with a smile, and didn't call him Xiao Li's shopkeeper anymore, but called him by his name.

Li Feng suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, looking at Li Er and Fang Xuanling's suddenly solemn expressions, and said in his heart: "It's sloppy." ”

But he said: "Isn't it just a few of us, what's more, what I said is true, and it won't take long to verify my words." As for the earthquake, it is what you call the turning of the earth dragon. ”

Fang Xuanling, who was originally calm, stood up violently, and said with a solemn face: "Li Feng, what you said is true?" What will the Earth Dragon perform when it turns over? ”

Well, Fang Xuanling also called Li Feng by his name.

"Nine times out of ten, you can't go wrong, generally speaking, when a disaster occurs, the first to rush to danger is birds and animals, and people are always an afterthought."

Fang Xuanling pulled Li Er with a solemn expression, stood up and said, "Old Li, I suddenly remembered an important matter, we should go back." ”

"What's the important matter, I still have a lot to ask Li Feng? I'll go back later. "Li Er didn't want to go back.

He found Li Feng to be a very interesting person and wanted to know more about it.

Fang Xuanling saw that Li Er didn't want to leave, so he said angrily: "Lao Li, there are some problems in the family's business, and you need to take charge of the overall situation." ”

Li Er reluctantly stood up and said, "Okay, Li Feng, we'll see you in a few days." ”

"Okay." Li Feng bowed his head and said, "You are actually in business, and if you have extra money, go and exchange it all for food." I promise you'll make a lot of money. ”

"Okay, we remember, thank you Xiao Li." After Fang Xuanling finished speaking, he pulled Li Er and left.

After Li Er was dragged out of the door, he shook off Fang Xuanling's hand and said unhappily: "I said Xueling, what's wrong with you, I haven't talked enough yet." ”

Fang Xuanling said: "Your Majesty, do you remember the rules reported by the prefect of Jinyang in Hedong Province?" ”

"I haven't seen it, eh, isn't this the work of your Shangshu Province? After you read it, you felt that it was necessary to show me again, and you didn't show me the performance of the Jinyang prefect at all. Li Er said in a deep voice.

Fang Xuanling said embarrassedly: "At that time, Weichen didn't care much, so he didn't hand it over to His Majesty, and now that I think about it, it's scary." ”

Li Er said in a deep voice: "Don't talk nonsense, what did you say?" ”

"The river is muddy, the well is bubbling, the livestock are neighing, a large number of animals have fled the mountains, and birds have flown away from their homes."

"What, isn't this going to be an earthquake?"

"If what Li Feng said is true, it means that there is going to be an earthquake in Jinyang, and if what Li Feng said is a fallacy, then there is no need to worry." Fang Xuanling said.

"What do you say?" Li Er glared at Fang Xuanling and returned to the palace with a loud roar.

A group of people suddenly appeared beside Li Er and escorted him back to the palace.

Fang Xuanling followed.

Just on their way back to the palace, Qin Tianjian.

Taiji Palace, Qin Tianjian.

A middle-aged man in a Taoist uniform, handsome and extraordinary, looking like a fairy wind and bones, was looking up at the sky at a forty-five degree angle, and saw a dark cloud floating in the direction of Chang'an.

The fingers of his right hand pinched back and forth, just like a Taoist priest on a TV show telling fortunes, calculating something, his mouth was slightly closed and he was talking about something, but he didn't make a sound, looking at it from a distance, he was an immortal who had become an immortal

Especially the windless automatic, so that his compulsion is infinitely magnified, he is Yuan Tiangang, the national teacher of the Tang Dynasty.

At this point, he put away his right hand and a smile appeared on his face.

"Master, Your Majesty is here." A little Taoist boy hurriedly came to report.

Yuan Tiangang smiled and said, "It's the right time to come, serve tea." As soon as the words fell, the people had already gone to greet Li Er.

Simple Li Er, Yuan Tiangang immediately saluted: "Poor Dao found that a purple gas appeared in the east, even if His Majesty was about to arrive, if he missed the distance, please forgive Your Majesty." ”

Li Er was in the mood to be polite to Yuan Tiangang at this time, and said anxiously: "Armillary sphere, where is the armillary sphere?" ”

"Yes, in the lobby." Yuan Tiangang pointed behind him and said.

Li Er and Fang Xuanling didn't have ink, so they directly bypassed Yuan Tiangang and went to Datang to see the armillary sphere.

Yuan Tiangang was a little confused, what's wrong, is there something wrong, and then followed.

The armillary sphere is an upgraded version of Zhang Heng's geodynamic instrument, the original geokinetic instrument was destroyed in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, and the technology disappeared for a while.

Fortunately, someone dedicated this to the imperial court, and the imperial court concentrated skilled craftsmen to make this armillary sphere.

This armillary sphere is the only armillary sphere in Datang, and it is very precious.

Now next to the armillary sphere stood the most powerful people in the Tang Dynasty.

Seeing that the armillary sphere did not move, Li Er secretly breathed a sigh, he turned his head to look at Yuan Tiangang and said, "National teacher, do the math, has there been an earthquake in Datang recently?" ”

Yuan Tiangang pretended to pinch his fingers and calculated, and after a while, he said: "The Tang Dynasty is smooth in wind and rain, and the five grains are abundant, even if there are some small disasters and small disasters, it will not hurt......

"Don't talk nonsense, I ask you if you have it or not?" Li Er asked in a deep voice.

"No, not after the earthquake."

"Bang."

I saw that as soon as Yuan Tiangang's voice fell, the beads in the dragon's mouth on the armillary sphere side fell.

"There was an earthquake." This was the first reaction of the crowd.

Yuan Tiangang sat on the ground even more frightened, and just after saying that there would be no earthquake, the beads of the armillary sphere fell down, this was a naked slap in the face, and he was slapped in the face in front of His Majesty, how could he be embarrassed.
