Chapter 67: Two "stupid" princes

knew that the martial arts image in his mind would be defeated by Li Jing, so Li Chengqian didn't react much.

Looking at the trace that was already two centimeters deep, Li Chengqian took a deep breath and said to Li Jing: "At the latest next summer, Gu will definitely cut off this stake!" ”

Li Jing smiled and nodded, and then left the East Palace leisurely.

Now that there is no war in Datang, a military general like him is basically useless in the last dynasty.

Conquest is the duty of military generals, and governing the world is the work of civil ministers, and civil ministers and military generals rarely interfere with each other.

Now this is the case, in the absence of too many changes in the military, even if the military generals are in the last dynasty, most of them are napping in the corner.

It is precisely because of the duty of teaching the prince that he no longer goes to the small court meeting, except for the necessary big court meeting.

Also sick are Cheng Yanjin and others, who know the lazy nature of this bastard, and the emperor did not reprimand. Looking around, there is no war, which is very good for the current Datang.

At the end of the morning exercise, Li Chengqian washed up again before entering the study, ready to accept his homework.

Because Li Tai and Li Ke really couldn't keep up, the old gentleman regressed from his studies again, teaching classics and teaching literacy at the same time.

In the past few days, the old gentleman has explained "Thousand Character Text", and Li Chengqian, who has been exploring difficult words, naturally does not feel pressure on this. So basically he is in charge of Li Tai, and the old gentleman is in charge of Li Ke's one-on-one teaching.

With the help of Li Chengqian, the characters that Li Tai and Li Ke knew gradually increased, at least more than other princes in the palace.

Of course, the prince here is not referring to Li Chengqian's brothers, but his uncles.

In addition to killing Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji, the emperor only killed their five sons, and the rest of the brothers did not use them to open the knife. may be more indulgent after becoming the emperor, Li Yuan has added a lot of younger brothers to Li Shimin over the years. Among them, there are many people, biological mothers and even palace maids.

For these cheap brothers, Li Shimin did not be ruthless, but found a gentleman for them to teach, and even promised to give them fiefdoms and titles. Although it is likely to be a poor mountain like Yuezhou, it is already very good to have a title.

At the end of the morning class, the eunuch brought lunch, which was still noodles, but with more fish soup, which was much better than just eating noodles.

Seeing Li Tai and Li Ke gobbling up, Li Chengqian sighed and gave up telling them the truth.

The new eunuch seemed to have a bit of obsessive-compulsive disorder, and he had to taste every stick of noodles before he stopped.

After cutting off the ends of each noodle and throwing it away, Li Chengqian began to eat. It's better than nothing, but it's a little better.

Noticing Li Chengqian's movements, Li Gang smiled and said: "It's good to get used to it, you are only a prince now, and when you become an emperor in the future, the review of meals will be stricter." ”

"What are you guarding against, really."

With a sigh, Li Chengqian could only continue to eat. People are iron and rice are steel, and he can't stop eating because he is tired of the eunuch's tasting. Before this obsessive-compulsive eunuch gets out, he probably can only let the kitchen make more porridge and rice. You won't try every grain of rice in this product!

The old gentleman had very little food, only eating a small bowl of noodles and drinking a small bowl of fish soup.

Looking at the old gentleman's job, Li Chengqian was full of worries.

"Look at what, the old man is already so old, it is possible to leave whenever he wants. Now, every year that passes, the old man feels that he has earned it. Oh, don't talk about this, boy, there is still more than a month to go to the moon, the old man has been with you for so long, why do you want to go home for the New Year. After the New Year, have you thought about what New Year's gift to give to the old man? ”

As a junior, Li Chengqian needs to prepare New Year's gifts for his elders every New Year, just because he is not an adult now, and the royal family does not need to give gifts. However, as a disciple of the old gentleman, Li Chengqian should also prepare a New Year's gift for the old gentleman.

Knowing the old gentleman's temperament, things such as giving money and property will definitely be knocked, so Li Chengqian didn't care and said: "New Year's gift, just prepare it when the New Year comes." Master Li, the disciple is going to give you a piece of paper, what do you think? ”

"A piece of paper?"

Li Gang smiled: "Then the old man is waiting to see if you can grow flowers on your paper." ”

After speaking, Li Gang pushed the wheelchair to the table where Go was placed.

After several months of study, Li Chengqian's skills in Go have been on par with Li Gang's, and the master and apprentice have already won and lost each other.

Li Tai and Li Ke didn't dare to disturb and ran to the other side to play chess. When the two of them were in the palace, they basically didn't have time to play except for studying, although they also had to study in the East Palace, but they had such time to play, in their opinion, it was better here in the East Palace.

A game of chess was played for almost an hour, and in the end Li Gang lost.

Although he won, Li Chengqian still consciously cleaned up the chess game.

Li Gang smiled slightly: "Go together, you can be regarded as an achievement." Unlike the old stuffy rush, now you have learned to advance and retreat freely. Watching your growth with my own eyes, the old man is very relieved. ”

From playing chess, you can see a person's mentality, it is normal for beginners to bury their heads in the sky, and now Li Chengqian can be regarded as having learned to play chess, and at this time he can see the overall situation, which shows that he himself also has a certain overall view. Although this may not necessarily be useful for doing things, it will have a positive impact after all.

After Li Chengqian put away all the chess pieces, he said with a smile: "Master Li, you said that if the kid can play you, Go will not talk about dominating the world, and he will be able to show his hands in Chang'an." Don't lie to me, this year, the clan will gather together, and the kid may have to show his hand then. ”

Seeing Li Chengqian's childlike pride, Li Gang laughed: "Can the old man still lie to you? Even your uncle Gao Shilian is not the old man's opponent in Go. If you want to marry the queen, remember to clean up the old guy on behalf of the old man. ”

Li Chengqian naturally nodded in agreement.

This year is the first year that the emperor's father has been in power, and it is estimated that the queen's provincial relatives are indispensable. Defeating an elder as a junior will cause gossip, but if you go on a substitute for the teacher, it's a different matter.

To be honest, Li Chengqian is still looking forward to this New Year. Although I have a good understanding of the history of the Tang Dynasty, understanding is understanding after all, not a comprehensive acquaintance. There are not enough memories left behind of this body. So, taking advantage of this opportunity, he can get to know the members of the royal family well.

On the other side, Li Tai and Li Ke were in a mess.

The old gentleman just glanced at it and didn't want to care, when he taught Li Chengqian, he never felt strained, but for these two princes, he was helpless. It's not that they're not smart enough, it's that the old gentleman now feels like a person who is used to drinking liquor and drinks beer again, and he doesn't have much taste for it.
