Li Tai likes to use his brain, Li Ke likes to lead people, and these two jobs just happen to meet their needs.

There is no unbearable suffering, no unattainable blessing. People are like that, very elastic. When he was in the grassland, he was indeed very hard, but when he saw the soldiers who were even more dressed than himself, and even had to go to the battlefield to work hard under such circumstances, Li Chengqian was always able to persevere. And now that I have returned to the East Palace, lying on the soft bed, and thinking about the grassland, I suddenly feel like a world away.

No matter how emotional, he couldn't delay sleeping, and after personally killing the enemy with a bow and arrow, Li Chengqian had to pay attention to the bow and arrow. Close-range slashing is definitely not allowed, at most it is like holding a bow and arrow as an ancient sniper.

The next morning, without feeling the cold wind entering the house, Li Chengqian woke up.

got up and went out, took the black charcoal head, and started running around the East Palace. This new body is much stronger than the body of the previous life because it has been exercising for a long time. Although sometimes I have to climb the stairs, there are small electric donkeys and elevators, and there are still many times to borrow tools. Besides, the eleven-year-old child in the future is still in elementary school, and I am afraid that he will not have the strength to pull the three-stone bow.

In the martial arts arena, after making sure that he could barely pull out the three-stone bow, Li Chengqian couldn't help but try an arrow.

It was crooked, and the arrow was shot under the bull's-eye.

"Although you can draw a three-stone bow now, since you used a five-stone bow when you practiced before, you can't easily change it. An arrow is an arrow, but there is no substitute for a bow. I have been on the battlefield for so many years, and I don't know how many times the horizontal sword, long sword, and horse lance in my hand have been changed, but the bow has been changed once. ”

Hearing this voice, Li Chengqian hurriedly put down his bow and turned around to salute.

"Why did my father come to the East Palace of his sons today?"

"Although I am the emperor, I have never slackened my martial arts, and I have to get up early every day to exercise. I see that the martial arts arena in your East Palace is good, so let's change the place for morning exercises here in the future. Walking all the way from the dormitory to this side is also a warm-up. ”

After speaking, Li Shimin stretched out his hand, and Zhang Yun put a black wood giant bow into Li Shimin's hand. There was no gold wire entwined, no brocade tied, just a bare bow with a little bit of rot on it.

But such a bow, under the urging of Li Shimin, shot bullet-like arrows, not only shot through the bull's-eye, but even nailed to the wall.

After glancing at his achievements from a distance, Li Shimin nodded with satisfaction: "It seems that my archery skills have not fallen yet." ”

Zhang Yun and the others immediately bowed: "Your Majesty's martial arts are still the same, and I am fortunate for the Tang Dynasty!" ”

Li Chengqian also had to bow down and give a salute, the emperor is like this, no matter what he does, his subordinates must praise him, even if it is the prince, after all, in front of the emperor, although the prince is a son, he still has to call himself a "son".

However, Li Shimin does deserve to be patted on the back. You must know that the founding emperor is good at martial arts, but there are very few who can stand the test like him.

"Come, get back your bow with a pulley set, and let's have a competition."

"Father is joking, how can his sons compare to you."

That being said, Li Chengqian still asked Yu Tai to bring the bow over. There is a master of archery here, and it is a little better than his own simple practice.

It was also a matter of strength to open the bow continuously, so when the target finally could not withstand the impact of the arrow and finally shattered to the ground, the father and son stopped and went to the bath of the Lizheng Hall to take a bath.

did not wash separately, Li Chengqian was just about to say that he would wash after washing, but he was grabbed by a big hand and dragged into the house.

The emperor, who was soaking in the warm bath and only had a bath towel around his waist, lay on his back on the edge of the pool and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Cheng Qian, the grassland line, I have seen the most general reports, that is, you can endure hardships with the soldiers, never use the identity of the prince, and win the support of the soldiers. Since the border can endure hardship, why is it so luxurious to be in the East Palace? If it weren't for the fact that you earned all your money, this bath alone would have been caught by the officials and impeached you severely. ”

Li Chengqian also lay on the side, and after snorting, he said: "Erchen spends his own money, and if anyone dares to impeach, Erchen will send someone to his house and build one for him." ”

Li Shimin laughed dumbly, this method is really a bit of a scoundrel, as long as the prince does this, the impeached official will immediately be regarded as having a hatred of the rich, and this chapter of impeachment will become a big joke. In many cases, some seemingly scoundrel methods are much more useful than direct hard fighting.

After saying this, Li Chengqian couldn't help but look at the emperor's upper body. The emperor who came out of the military array was different, although he looked dignified on the outside, but when he took off his clothes, the scars on his body were like earthworms crawling on his body, which looked a little disgusting, but he could smell a breath of iron and blood.

Seeing that the prince was looking at the scars on his body, Li Shimin smiled slightly: "What to see, you have a chance to look at the generals of the military, which ones don't have a few scars on their bodies." What do you think is going on in the battle array, Wang Shichong and Dou Jiande, which one of them has never been in battle in person, and the reason why I was able to sit in this position is only because I was lucky when I was in the army before, and I didn't die on the battlefield.

You are now the crown prince, and if you want to inherit the throne peacefully, you can't go into battle in person with a hot brain. I heard that you personally shot more than two dozen people when the Turks encountered a convoy by chance? It's not bad, it's worthy of being my son. But if it was daytime, you would have been stupid when you stood on the carriage. You know, the archery skills of the Turks, if you pick any one, maybe you won't be under me. ”

Li Shimin is always cautious about the enemy, and facts have proved that the kind of person who sees the enemy clearly has nothing to do, and he can't die anymore.

Li Chengqian smiled: "Erchen naturally knows that if it is daytime, Erchen has made up his mind not to come out of the carriage." ”

Li Shimin nodded at this time: "Your mother's words, don't take it to heart, in my opinion, what you are doing in this line is very right, and there is nothing to blame." It's just that next time you don't want to go out, isn't the academy going to recruit students soon? As the vice president, you have to go over and hold up the field. As for the affairs of the court, don't get involved in it if you have nothing to do, and don't get angry for a while, and kill the envoys of the Japanese state, when Zhang Jian reported to me, he didn't know how to talk. ”

Li Chengqian smiled dumbly, I'm afraid this is the biggest culpability of his trip!

Stretching out his hand and tapping on the water, Li Shimin said strangely: "Anyway, why do you think the Japanese people are so unpleasant?" The two armies do not kill the envoys when they fight, and the two countries do not kill the envoys when they are hostile, this is the rule, even if it is me, it cannot violate the rules recognized by the world. ”

"Erchen is just indignant at their national letter, listening to Wei Gong, the Japanese country is just an island country, maybe not as big as us, and only by taking advantage of the sea danger can we be safe. Such a small country is arrogant, calling itself the country of the rising sun, and calling our Central Plains the country of the sunset, which is simply arrogant! ”

There is no way to say that their sins have not yet happened, and they must not say that their current obedience is to prepare for the rampant in the future! However, such a nation with original sin itself cannot bring any benefits to Datang, so there is really no need to be tolerant.

Feeling the full disdain in the prince's words, Li Shimin smiled slightly and didn't say anything more.

The kingdom of God should naturally have the bearing of the kingdom, but it must not lose its prestige without the bearing. It has been two months since Dengzhou came to play, and it is estimated that the envoy of the Japanese State who took the sea route is about to arrive in Chang'an! If the national credentials they brought are still like this, they should also knock on them.

Zhang Yun approached the bath, bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, Your Highness, breakfast has been prepared in the kitchen, should you go to the dining room to eat, or will the slave and maid send it over?"

"Let's eat in the restaurant."

After speaking, Li Shimin got up and went to the changing room to change clothes.

Zhang Yun did not leave directly, but ordered another eunuch to go in to help the emperor get dressed, and he quietly touched the edge of the bath, and said with a smile: "Your Highness, don't blame the slave maid for not reminding you, today's Taiji Palace, the princes have thrown a big burden to the academy, you, it's better to go back early to prepare for it." ”

"On the Tai Chi Palace?"

Li Chengqian was a little surprised, and then remembered that this year was already the fourth year of Zhenguan. Presumably, Emperor Li Yuan has moved to Da'an Palace now!

"Yes, Your Highness, I heard that the Emperor Taishang has moved out of the Taiji Hall now."

Li Chengqian nodded, also got up, and walked out of the bath with Zhang Yun's support, never mentioning the burden.

The grassland party made him no longer so resistant to eunuchs.

Being able to remind can already show that Zhang Yun is thinking about the friendship on the grassland. The emperor didn't open his mouth to say it, and it was a great sin for him to poke it out, even a little. There's no need to embarrass him, no matter what the burden is, just block it.

When the academy was first established, it was not good if there were no ups and downs.

Breakfast is rice porridge and soybean sauce dipping vegetables, Li Chengqian, who is about to vomit after eating meat in the grassland, is now about to become a rabbit, no meat, ready to eat green vegetables for a few days.

Li Shimin doesn't like to eat raw vegetables, but he likes soybean sauce very much. It was not that there were no sauces in the Tang Dynasty, but because of the poor mastery of fermentation technology and the invasion of mold, many times the sauces made were extremely unpalatable. But now that the chef has already made the soybean paste, the soy sauce must not be far away. Although frosting is a rare thing, and the quality is still poor, it is not absent on the market. With these few things, sweet and sour pork ribs and other delicacies can finally be made. Fastest update... / .. /

After breakfast, the emperor went back to the Taiji Hall for a routine court meeting.

Will the court be more lively in these two days, what will be lively is the next few days, and now all the ministries are hurrying to calculate the military merits of the armies of all walks of life, and when the military merits are counted, I am afraid that the court will become a stage for the generals of all walks of life.

There is no need to get involved in these things, Sun Simiao has now gone back to medical school to hide, and a false name is a burden for him, if it weren't for the fact that medical school would be very expensive in the future, and if he didn't want to go, he wouldn't even accept the reward.

With Li Tai, Li Ke, and the old man, Li Chengqian almost escaped from Chang'an at the fastest speed. If any general pulls himself out as a witness or something, it will be ugly.

The road from Chang'an to the college has been smoothed and paved with cement, and it is extremely stable to walk.

Lifting the curtain and seeing that the road sometimes passes through a field, Li Chengqian's heart tightened, and he hurriedly asked Li Gang: "Master Li, have we compensated the people for occupying land like this?" ”

Li Gang glanced at Li Chengqian strangely: "Do you think those people will want compensation?" Yan Liben read your letter before building the road, and although he thought it was strange, he still decided to compensate the people according to what you said. As a result, those who had occupied the land pulled the county order as witnesses and went directly to the college. They believe that when the roads are repaired, they will benefit from them as well. What's more, our college teaches students from civilian families without charging fees, and they have already suffered a loss, and if they get compensation, they will be poked in the backbone by the villagers.

This direct road to Chang'an is not only needed by the academy, but also by the villages along the way, which has benefited a lot. With this almost all straight roads, they can save a lot of time traveling between Chang'an and the village. What compensation do you need for everyone to benefit? ”

Li Chengqian nodded, and couldn't help blushing a little for his future thoughts.

I was accustomed to those nail households who insisted on asking for a large amount of demolition fees to make a fortune, so it was natural to replace this image with the people of the Tang Dynasty. As everyone knows, in the Tang Dynasty, it was not said that he was a gentleman, but the common people sneered at ill-gotten gains. What should be your own is your own, what should not be your own, and you can't mess around with crooked thoughts.

The road surface is smooth, and not just because of the cement paving. Lying on my stomach at the window of the car, I can occasionally see people cleaning up dust on the road. For this road, there is no need to designate anyone to maintain it, and the villagers on both sides of the road will spontaneously clean up the dust and gravel on the road. This made Li Chengqian, who had a history of throwing waste paper and plastic bags on the street, blushing.

Perhaps, Datang doesn't need sanitation workers? A strange thought appeared in Li Chengqian's mind.

If you don't go to the college, you can see a small courtyard with simple roadside decoration. Instead of planting flowers and trees in each yard, there is a small vegetable garden. These are the residences of the gentlemen of the academy, and they will only eat lunch once a day in the academy, and breakfast and dinner are all settled in their own homes. Although it is the same for gentlemen to eat in the academy, they will never break their morals.

When he arrived at the main entrance of the college, Li Chengqian found that this place was very different from before he left.

The garden of the college has been planted with large trees, and although the canopy is still very sparse, it will slowly recover after the first year. The flowers in the garden are also lively, and you can see that the gardener takes care of them very carefully.

Walking into the college, Li Chengqian suddenly had a sense of the school in later generations.

It's been almost four years since I arrived in Datang, and I finally saw something familiar to me.

The front of the boulder has been leveled by a stonemason, and a sentence is engraved on it: "If you learn without thinking, you will be reckless, and if you think without learning, you will die."

Sage Kong's words are actually very reasonable, but the truth is reasonable, and if future generations abide by it or not, it is not something that his old man can control.

In the sound of reading aloud, Li Tai went directly to the glass workshop not far away and started his own attempt.

Pushing the old gentleman into the office building, the three masters and apprentices went directly into the conference room on the first floor.

The vice president is back, why do you have to have a meeting, don't you?

During the big recess, the old gentlemen gathered in the conference room after class.

Although only a child is sitting in the first place, these Confucians dare not rely on the old and sell the old. You know, they have seen a magnificent academy built in the hands of this child.

patted Li Ke, Li Chengqian said his opinion.

"Ladies and gentlemen, it's not enough to just read, and if you bury your mind in books, students can easily become nerds. Lone personally walked the grassland and felt a lot. Although knowledge can enrich a person's qualities, it cannot be used as a force against the enemy in many cases. Therefore, Lone is going to add martial arts lessons to the academy's curriculum, and let Li Ke serve as a coach to urge the students to exercise. ”

After speaking, Li Chengqian looked at the old gentlemen worriedly, for fear of being accused.

It's weird, no one is angry.

Yang Du pondered for a while before saying: "Although strengthening the body will deprive you of time for studying, a strong body is useful at any time. King Wuling of Zhao implemented Hufu cavalry shooting, and Zhao was able to be ashamed and enhance his combat power. It can be seen that it is useless to stick to the old rules. ”

Mr. Fang Zheng smiled: "The old man has an old friend who has a bad fate and went to Shandong to become an official. As a result, when the Sui Dynasty was in turmoil, he organized the people to resist the robbers as a county commander, but it was just one round and it was over. It can be seen that even if you are an official, you need to have a bit of martial arts. The old man agrees with His Royal Highness the Prince's proposition! ”

Both of them spoke, and the rest of the old gentlemen agreed.

Only then did Li Chengqian remember that although he also liked to study ancient books, he was not a pedantic Confucian. They have passed most of their lives, not those old men in the family. I have experienced all kinds of things in life, and I am very open to many things.

Seeing that he could have something to do, Li Ke immediately went out to prepare the appropriate equipment.

After Li Ke left, Li Gang took a sip of tea and calmly said earth-shattering words: "Some time ago, many wealthy families wanted to hold a Jinglun meeting, which was originally a competition between their families, but not only what happened, but they all gathered in Chang'an, and also sent a post to the imperial court, naming the people who wanted to compete with the old man. If they are just here to humiliate the old man, the old man doesn't have to be like them, but their battle post is not written on the prince and the prince, but the academy sacrificial wine, which is intriguing..."

They are all old and refined people, how can they not guess the meaning of the academy.

Because the academy had the new nobles and the emperor behind them, they naturally did not dare to use some insidious means. However, it's all right to learn from each other's literature. Even if either side loses miserably, it will only be said to be a matter of grace, and the winner will not be blamed.

It's just that the "for learning" and "for communication" in their mouths are true or false, and I don't know.
