Before he finished speaking, another box was carried in outside the door.

Niu Jinda and Li Jing were "kidnapped" today, and when the second box landed, Lao Niu rubbed his face and said seriously: "You can do it yourself, everything the military can take out is here." I know that you have enclosed a large piece of land on the bank of the Weishui River, and you have also drummed the victims to work. Although you have a lot of money and goods in the East Palace, you still can't afford to undertake such a project. are all happy people, so you can give a happy word, how much can you put? ”

In the face of Lao Niu, Li Chengqian could no longer open his mouth.

Arching his hand, Li Chengqian sighed and said: "You are all heroes who followed your father to fight on the battlefield, although you are the crown prince, you dare not be disrespectful. It's just that the purpose of the academy at the beginning of its establishment was to teach the world. The children of your families, even if they are the second sons, will be protected as officials in the future. Mrs. Li said that at the beginning of the establishment of the college, a maximum of 800 students were enrolled. Among these 800 people, a maximum of 200 places will be given for the children of the nobles to enroll.

Yesterday, Liang Gong and Zhao Gong came to visit together, and they asked for a quota of 150. Lone is easy to say, so it was changed to a hundred. Therefore, there are only a hundred places left for you. These two big boxes of goods are easy to take but hot, there are only a hundred places, how can you be honest and take benefits again? ”

When I heard that there were 100 places, many people were overjoyed. I came here today for the quota, and I thought it would be enough to win a quota for each family, but I didn't think that there would be a surplus after each family was evenly divided! It's a big profit!

Although I was happy in my heart, I still had to make it out.

Li Jing gritted his teeth and sighed: "It's good to have a hundred." Although it is a little less, it is easy to say anything between the robes of our military. Everyone gritted their teeth, and it was assigned. His Royal Highness Prince Lao has bothered! ”

After saying that, the family carrying the box closed the lid of the box, carried it out, and handed it to the guards of the East Palace.

The generals frowned, and Li Chengqian sighed, but when the prince left the restaurant, he took the two parties he needed, but he invariably showed a smiling face.

The two boxes of treasures may really be all the belongings on the civilian officials, but for the entire military, they are nothing at all.

There is no profession in this world that is more lucrative than the army, and every time the army is dispatched, there is always an unexpected gain.

Spending money to give their children a chance to learn is a cost-effective thing for these generals. You must know that in front of the giants, even if they pay money, it is useless.

got into the carriage, rubbed his face that had been bitter for a long time, and told the coachman to go to the mansion of Zhao Guogong.

The quota of the generals has been given away, and the next step is to solve the problem of the quota on Wenchen's side.

I don't know, is it a good excuse for the generals to want one hundred and fifty places?

Learning from the style of the later generations of directors of the admissions office and the director of the personnel office, Li Chengqian shamelessly pried open the money bags of the Tang Dynasty, both civil and military.

It's not shameless, the finances of the East Palace are now about to run a deficit, and if you want to run an academy, you can only think of other ways. As for leaving the matter of collecting money to the old gentleman? Tsk, to say something disrespectful to the teacher, his old man doesn't have such means.

Like the generals, the ministers also served meat dishes directly after moving their mouths. Although the ministers are all a little learned, this still does not delay them from putting gold on their children's academic qualifications. Not to mention anything else, as long as they walked around the academy, they dared to say that their children had been taught by a great Confucian like Li Gang. In this era when there is no resume, the means to prove yourself are really not much different from later generations.

I mixed a cup of tea in the Drunken Wind Building, and another cup of tea in the Zhao Guogong Mansion. It's been a busy day, and I haven't even mixed up a meal.

Originally, he slandered these guys for being stingy, but when he thought of his identity, Li Chengqian was relieved.

Please eat, and divide the object as well. If it's a colleague in the court, please just invite it, and it's no problem if you eat badly. But if it is the emperor, empress, crown prince or the like, you have to weigh it carefully. Friends eat together and eat bad stomachs, and after meeting, they joke with each other. If these three eat badly, it will be a major event that directly threatens the brain.

Fortunately, the cook of the East Palace had a long face, so he returned to the East Palace and brought lunch.

Halfway through the meal, Li Gang came in in with a wheelchair.

"Boy, how's it going, how much money did you cheat? If it is less than 20,000 yuan, the old man will ask for the 200 places back! ”

Li Chengqian chewed something in his mouth, and did not reply, but stretched out three fingers.

Li Gang smiled slightly and breathed a sigh of relief.

Although it is not in line with the gentleman's style to threaten people and take money with this, it is not possible to build the academy well without sufficient investment. In the morning, if it weren't for Li Chengqian's forcible request, the old gentleman would have been ready to show his old face to "auction" these two hundred places.

After swallowing a mouthful of food, Li Chengqian said: "Master Li, your face is still valuable, just leave this kind of thing to the kid, anyway, the kid is still underage, even if he is accused once or twice, it is not a problem." ”

"Once or twice is naturally nothing, the old man is afraid that the number of times will have an impact on your reputation. After all, you are the crown prince, and others dare not disdain things, so you naturally have to pay more attention. ”

"Master Li, don't worry, the disciple knows how to do it."

Seeing the confidence in Li Chengqian's words, Li Gang smiled and didn't say anything more.

In many cases, it is enough to say the word once, and smart people are naturally able to listen to advice. Li Gang is very confident in himself as an apprentice.

The recent East Palace is very lively, in addition to the cheeky and gifted military generals, there are also many Confucians.

Although Li Chengqian sold half of the 200 places to the military generals and Wenchen, but this was sold to the collective, who is not a big son girl, and the places obtained from the collective, one is considered great, the eldest son has a way, what about the second son or something? Although the eldest son has a place to fulfill his wish, but the second son must be stuffy at home?

The courtiers who did not give up, this time they didn't care about exposing their family wealth, and they visited the East Palace with heavy gifts, just to get another place.

However, no matter what kind of heavy gifts they carried, they couldn't step into the East Palace, and no one dared to entangle too much, because once the prince and master Li Gang were angry, they couldn't eat and walk. Starting.. ..

As for the visiting Confucian, it makes people happy, but if someone sends a post, Li Chengqian will definitely go out to greet him, and he will be very respectful.

Different from the elders of the big family, these Confucians are all clean and self-conscious, never participate in political struggles, and bury themselves in learning at home. It's just that learning has always been orthodox and unorthodox, although they are not short of talents to learn, but the knowledge they make will always be despised by the big family and not widely recognized by Shilin.

Coaching the world is a dream that will appear in the hearts of every reader, but dreams are dreams after all, full of ambition, will always be defeated by real difficulties such as money, and finally sigh and bow their heads and do things in a down-to-earth manner.

"As far as historiography is concerned, how many people dare to argue with the old man? Lao Li Gang, the old man is the dean of a history branch in this academy, he is qualified! ”

Tasting the unique tea of the East Palace, the Confucian named Yao Silian was particularly arrogant.

For this one, Li Chengqian didn't dare to entertain him well. One of the eighteen scholars of the Qin Wangfu period, his father Yao Cha, was a scholar in the Ministry of Officials when he was in the Chen Kingdom, and wrote the second history of Chen Liang, but it was not completed. He studied history since childhood, and later served as a waiter for Yang Yu, the king of the Sui Dynasty.

After the emperor ascended the throne, he only hung up the official position of a prince washing horses, and never came to the East Palace at all.

For those who are truly talented, everyone will respect them, and the emperor is no exception. Just look at this official position of the prince washing horses but doing empty salaries, you know that it is not easy to mess with.

I heard that Donggong is going to establish Zhenguan College, recruit students from all over the world, and take the first step to educate the world. The old guy lifted the history book pressed on his body and got out. In any case, you should also get yourself a branch of historiography in the academy.

At the beginning of the establishment of the college, what we had to do was to open up the people's wisdom first, so teaching literacy and writing was the first priority. If you want to take revenge in your heart, you have to wait three or five years. The academy has not yet been built, and I don't know how many gentlemen it can recruit. Since you have spoken to the old man, then there is no discussion, you first come to the college to teach students for three or five years, and then talk about the rest! ”

The old gentleman is atmospheric, and Yao Silian smiled bitterly when he said it.

Seeing that the tea in the two cups was gone, Li Chengqian hurriedly got up and poured it full, and raised his doubts: "Mr. Yao, wouldn't it be better if the "Book of Liang" and "Book of Chen" were compiled by you alone?" Why do you want to come to the academy and ask for help? ”

Li Chengqian is not stupid, the old guy entered the East Palace with a loud bang, and wanted to establish a branch in the academy, obviously to arrest people as laborers. It's just a compilation of two history books, so you can sell yourself into the academy!

Yao Silian glanced at the crown prince, and when he saw that he was young, he didn't get angry, and replied, "Do you think the compilation of history books is so easy?" If the old man pursues speed, he doesn't need to work hard, just find a few copies of other people's "Liang Shu" and "Chen Shu" to check, and it will be good. The so-called official history is to make one's records as true as possible. This truth cannot be guaranteed by the "Living Note". "Living Note", government espionage, local official documents, market rumors.... All of them can be taken into account in order to find the truth of the matter in the chaos.

Historiography is like this, the official history may not be correct, and the wild history may not be wild. In many cases, maybe the folk nursery rhymes are the most true. Looking at the history books, the cruelty of the King of Zhou, the tyranny of the Qin Emperor, and the extravagance of the Emperor Yang are all recognized. However, after careful consideration, you can find that most of the so-called official histories were written by the victors. If you want to find the truth in a lie, you have to study the phrase 'success and defeat'! ”

After saying this, Li Chengqian's sweat flowed out. The old guy really dares to say anything, just these words, it can definitely be called a declaration of war with Shilin.

This one.... This one....

Gotta fool this guy to the academy!

Li Chengqian didn't care if what the old guy said was a big rebellion, it was really the academy that needed to be filled! If the academy is established only to teach literacy, what is the difference between it and an ordinary school?

Since you want to do it, you have to do your best, anyway, Li Chengqian hopes to build Zhenguan College into a university like Qingbei, rather than a primary school everywhere.

After saying so much, Yao Silian was a little thirsty, so he took a sip of tea.

Li Gang went on to say to him: "If you want to study the real facts, you need to consult a lot of information, and one person, even if it is five or ten years, is not enough. So, instead of screaming and resisting, it's better to cultivate a few disciples, or find a few to help. Only when the number of people comes up, can the results be faster. ”

Li Chengqian nodded and arched his hand to indicate that he had been taught.

That's true, history books, and only the victors can write, and many times the image of a person or something in the public memory is processed.

Emperor Yang of Sui is indeed the monarch who caused disputes in the world, but it is not right to let him bear all the responsibility. Considering his father's character, Li Chengqian felt that even if there were no canals and the Eastern Expedition to Goryeo, the unlucky Yang Guang would still have to get off the throne.

Because, there is a man named Li Shimin who wants to be the emperor!

may also have noticed that it was inappropriate to say these things in front of a prince, Yao Silian wiped his face, and arched his hand to Li Gang and said, "Since you have spoken, then the day the academy is built, it will be the time to take up your next post." In addition, I have a few friends who are historians, so I don't need Master Li to speak, so I'll call them and work in the academy together! ”

The master and apprentice got up and sent Yao Silian all the way to the door.

Looking at the back of Yao Silian leaving, Li Gang smiled, his face was full of childlike cunning: "Yao Silian, this person is enough to support a branch of history for our academy, not to mention that he can deceive a few more." Boy, the historiography of our academy is enough to support a system, what are you going to set up for the rest of the system? At the beginning, Qi Guoji went to the palace to study, and the people gathered were all talkers, and they studied the study of Huang Lao. As a result, it only existed for about a hundred and fifty years, and then it disappeared. Since you are the crown prince, how can you shelter the academy for decades. But it's hard to figure out the meaning of the academy itself, and it's hard to last long! ”

Li Chengqian reached out and grabbed the push hand of the wheelchair and pushed the old gentleman out to enjoy the sunshine.

The emperor's edict turned into a cloud of green smoke and I don't know where it drifted to, it was originally written by a person, but it had an amazing effect.

Li Shimin may really be the darling of heaven, and the court's worship ceremony to the heavens has only been three days later, and the pouring rain has visited Guanzhong.

The officials of Sinong Monastery only knew that if it rained in the summer, there would not be too many locusts the next year.

However, Li Chengqian, who hid in the study with Li Gang to watch the rain, knew that as long as it rained, a large number of molds would grow in the land, and these molds were one of the biggest enemies of locust eggs.
