Chapter 286: The King Dies

You can say it politely.

Whether it is Fang Xuanling or the eldest grandson Wuji, they actually know that the way they educate their sons is extremely unsuccessful.

To what extent did it fail? It is almost in Chang'an City, where everyone shakes their heads.

Therefore, now that the children are a little older, they also shake their heads in their hearts, but there is no way, they can't control it, even if they want to manage it, the eldest grandson Wuji is reluctant, and as for Fang Xuanling, he is more helpless, and he has no qualifications to manage!

Li Shimin took out the prince's recital, and the two couldn't help but panic.

To tell the truth, one of them is the prime minister, the other is the secretary of the ministry, and they know very well what kind of virtue their son is.

People should be self-aware, and the best way for such virtuous people is not to let them touch any important people!

If it were a weekday, these two guys, no matter how they messed around in Chang'an, after all, even if they really did something that lost their conscience, with the power of the Fang family and the eldest grandson's family, they would always be able to suppress it.

But now the prince asked them to read with them, which ...... It's a bit of a pit.

In fact, they are usually very worried about their children's relationship with the prince, in fact, who doesn't want their son to be intimate with the prince early? But at least not now, now the prince's age is still too young, if these two dog things take the prince badly, like them every day, only know the flying eagle fighting dogs, the house is beloved, only eight years old, and secretly drill into the green building, in the name of the beautiful name I just see, if this is the prince also pulled, what will be the consequences?

But the prince actually took the initiative to play these two dog things as companions, Fang Xuanling and the eldest grandson Wuji are now confused, and if they don't take the initiative to fight for one thing, the benefits that can be sent to the front of them will be more difficult. I think this may be helpful to my children, but I have many doubts.

So after being silent for a moment, Fang Xuanling said embarrassedly: "Your Majesty, the bereaved love is still too young and not sensible, if you go to the East Palace to study with you at this time, ......"

Li Shimin took a sip of tea and smiled: "It's because they are still young that I let them go to the East Palace to study together, if not, you can't control it, if you learn badly, what will happen in the future?" I grew up watching my beloved, this kid is a little stubborn, and he should be taken care of. ”

Fang Xuanling had a straight face, and said in his heart, Your Majesty, you said it yourself, but it wasn't the old man, so he kept silent.

The eldest grandson Wuji had already turned countless thoughts in his heart, and after a long time, he said: "What Your Majesty said also makes sense, it's just ...... I thought it was ......"

Obviously, the struggle of the eldest grandson Wuji was of little use......

Li Shimin interrupted him and said, "Okay." You don't have to worry about it, this is the prince's good intentions, they were playmates at the beginning, but since I ascended the throne, Cheng Qian became the prince, but he was rusty, this is not good, I think at the beginning, I and Wuji have also known each other since childhood. ”

Li Shimin said magnificently: "I am in charge of this matter, so it is decided." ”

Eldest Sun Wuji breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, anyway, this is Your Majesty, you are in charge, and if something happens at that time, I can't blame it.

Fang Xuanling also breathed a sigh of relief, anyway, His Majesty is in charge, if the tigress in the family wants to exert power, then it can't be blamed on my head.

So the three of them served tea, and Li Shimin immediately said: "Over the years, I have become more and more aware of the importance of talents, thinking about it, the most important thing is to recruit talents, Chen Zhengtai has been on a note before, saying that the imperial examination needs to be changed, and talents must be selected from all over the country for a unified examination, and all examinations need to be unified, and it can't be a Ming Jing, a jinshi, and a show, I think about it, this is the truth, therefore, Fang Qing will come up with a charter." ”

Fang Xuanling knew in his heart what His Majesty meant, this imperial examination should be changed now, and the essence was to continue the idea of Yangzhou's new policy.

In other words, after Yangzhou's new policy, the attitude towards the world has begun to change.

So, how can we tolerate the children of the world as in the past, so that the children of the world can be officials if they want?

But if you want to suppress the clan, the best way is to conduct a unified examination and recruit more talents through the imperial examination.

Of course, such an approach may cause the clan to complain, but it should not be too loud.

Because in the past, it was almost the family who recommended talents, or the quota of the imperial examination, which was recommended by them.

But in the future, even if the imperial court will focus more on the imperial examination, aren't the people who are literate and hyphenated in the world still the children of these clans? It's just that the rules of the game have changed, nothing else has changed.

Fang Xuanling received the order and said, "The minister obeys the order." ”

Li Shimin glanced at him and said very seriously: "Only by focusing on the imperial examination can we consolidate the national foundation, and the secretary should not be underestimated." ”

With just this understatement, Fang Xuanling understood.

Your Majesty actually linked the imperial examination with the national capital, which ...... It shows that the weight of this imperial examination in His Majesty's heart is no longer the same as before.

He bowed his head, and his heart began to plan.

The two retired, Li Shimin was still drinking tea, he was waiting for Fang Xuanling to send the charter, saying that it was for Fang Xuanling to draw up the charter, it was better to test the attitude of the officials, after all, Fang Xuanling was the prime minister, and once the charter was drafted, it was necessary to discuss it with the ministers of various ministries.

After these discussions, it is likely that the inner thoughts of the officials can be reflected.

At this time, Zhang Qiansha stepped in and said, "Your Majesty, Chen Zhan wants to see you." ”

Li Shimin's face softened a little, and he smiled: "Call it." ”

Chen Zhengtai rushed into the hall, saluted Li Shimin, and said: "The teacher's complexion is much better than in the past, and from a distance, it can be described as heroic......

Li Shimin said with a smile: "You don't talk about this, don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing." ”

Chen Zhengtai laughed: "There are things, but they are all small things, the main thing is to visit the teacher, this day I don't see the teacher, I feel like a year." ”

Li Shimin was in a good mood, asked him to sit down, and asked Zhang Qian to pour tea.

The master and apprentice ate the tea sent by Chen Zhengtai's house, and Chen Zhengtai coughed and said: "In fact, in addition to visiting the teacher, the student is here to ask His Majesty to agree. The crown prince was in charge of the country this time, and I heard that it was very smooth, and the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty said that the prince was safe. ”

Li Shimin snorted coldly in his heart, what went well, as for safety, let alone it, are you Chen Zhengtai really stupid or fake stupid.

In fact, the officials did express their approval of the prince, but they are scholars, and the scholars speak in a corner, on the surface they are approving, but if they add one word and one less word, the meaning may be different.

Therefore, there are many people with guns and sticks in the words, but people with a heart can figure it out, and ordinary people listen to it, and they only feel that this prince is really praised by the Manchu Dynasty, and he will be the lord of England in the future.

Li Shimin said: "It's not that the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty are praising him, he is the crown prince, who dares to say that he is not good?" Even if there are flaws, who dares to point them out directly? You don't have to speak well of him, my son, my heart is like a mirror. ”

Chen Zhengtai smiled dryly: "After the imprisonment of the country this time, the students still think that the prince should read more, the so-called not reading, can not be reasonable, do not study, can not be ambitious." ”

Li Shimin agreed with this very much, and said: "He has been in contact with some world conditions, so it is good to read some books, Zhan Shifu, is there still a lack of Confucianism?" ”

"There is no shortage." Chen Zhengtai said very seriously: "It's just that the students think that if the prince is just studying in Zhan Shifu, I'm afraid it's useless, it's better to study in the Royal Erpigou University, after all, the atmosphere in the school is good, and there are classmates, which can arouse the prince's competitive heart." In addition, the prince is a person who loves to be lively, in the past, in the Zhan Mansion, those Confucian doctors were like old monks chanting scriptures in front of him all day long, how could they learn it, but it was different when they entered the school. ”

Li Shimin said thoughtfully: "Really? It's just that if you go to the school and something goes wrong, I want you to ask. ”

"Students are responsible for the consequences." Chen Zhengtai patted his chest and promised.

If it were another emperor, he would naturally think it was a joke.

But when it comes to Li Shimin, it's different, in fact, how to educate the royal family has always been a big and difficult problem, how many princes are surrounded by a large group of Confucians, but there are a few people who are really talented.

Li Shimin was not born by royal education, more or less, and was somewhat resistant to such a method.

Now hearing Chen Zhengtai mention this, Li Shimin thought for a while, and then said: "Then you might as well give it a try, what else is there?" ”

Obviously, for Li Shimin, Chen Zhengtai must have something to say.

Chen Zhengtai shook his head and said, "Teacher, it's okay." ”

Li Shimin: "......"

Seeing that Chen Zhengtai was about to leave, Li Shimin felt that it was not a way to hold back like this, so he simply said: "I heard that you want Princess Sui'an's princess mansion to be moved to the desert to build. ”

"Yes, the student mentioned."

Li Shimin frowned and said, "Why is this?" ”

Chen Zhengtai's face was very calm, he knew that Li Shimin was observing himself carefully, so he acted like a person who had nothing to do: "Princess Sui'an is willing to serve her teacher, she often says that her body and skin are all by her teacher, if she can share her worries for her teacher, she is willing to die." There has always been a princess out of the fortress and relatives, but if you can guard the northern frontier for the Tang Dynasty......"

When Li Shimin heard this, he didn't check and rolled his eyes.

Doesn't that make it clear that you taught it?

Princess Sui'an can't deceive people, what will she say, I can't see it?

Li Shimin didn't bother to talk to him anymore, waved his hand and said, "You don't have to say this, I just want to know, what is your opinion?" ”

"Students?" Chen Zhengtai was stunned.

Li Shimin bowed his head and said: "You say, I don't blame." ”

Chen Zhengtai said: "It is said that the king is dead, and the heavenly family is selfless." What the students think is that since the Han Dynasty, starting from Han Gaozu, they have to bury themselves in military critical places even after death, hoping to borrow their own mausoleum to protect the safety of Sheji, so is my Tang Dynasty not even as good as Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty? Princess Sui'an's move is commendable. ”

The allusion that Chen Zhengtai said is actually that when Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, chose the mausoleum, he set the Changling Mausoleum at a military point.

Ordinary people choose their own graves, and they will also choose feng shui auspicious places, but Liu Bang is different, he chooses to use his Changling as a fortress.

In fact, this is also understandable, after all, the emperor's mausoleum costs a lot, in addition to the underground palace, the buildings on the ground are also amazing.

After the construction of the mausoleum, after the burial of Han Gaozu, in order to protect the safety of the mausoleum, a large number of guards were needed.

Therefore, there is a huge advantage to choosing Changling in Chang'an, which is to spend a penny to do two things.

The army must also be stationed to defend it, so why not set it up to rush to the Hun invasion?

Once the Xiongnu invaded and entered Guanzhong, the first thing to face was not Chang'an City, but the military fortress of Changling.

In this way, after the death of Han Gaozu, he can also use himself as a barrier to protect the safety of his children and grandchildren.

Of course, he himself must not have thought that after that, he had a great-grandson, who went directly out of the desert and beat the Huns a few times, and the threat from the north was probably lifted.

Therefore, his Changling has changed from a fortress to the hinterland of the Han Dynasty.

Obviously, Chen Zhengtai's words were not expected by Li Shimin, and he said thoughtfully: "A princess's mansion can also have the effect of Changling?" ”

Chen Zhengtai said with a smile: "Students think that as long as they have money, they can do it, but if the princess's mansion is not built there, who dares to invest money?" ”

Li Shimin was full of doubts for a while, he pondered for a moment before he said, "How to choose a location?" ”

Obviously, he also wants to give it a try, and Datang also wants to use this desert as a hinterland.

Although this may seem like an impossible task, it is almost everyone's dream that any emperor has the urge to never be in trouble.

Moreover, even if it is created, if there is a real danger, then it can be simply discarded.

Chen Zhengtai said: "I have to ask Her Royal Highness Princess Sui'an about this." ”

Li Shimin sneered: "If you don't talk about this, don't you just ask her?" ”

"Oops." Chen Zhengtai said squirmingly: "The teacher said this, but it can torment the student, the student ......"

Li Shimin waved his hand: "Don't be verbose, give me a piece of music in a few days, and send all the specifications of this site selection and construction to me, if you cover it up again, I won't spare you." ”

Chen Zhengtai nodded awkwardly, hurriedly said goodbye, and ran away.

………………

"My dear son, what's wrong with you?"

At this time, in Fang's house, it was already a mess.

Mrs. Fang was furious.

But it was Fang Yiai's hand that was injured because of the beating......

When Mrs. Fang saw the bruise on the back of her hand, she was furious, and everyone in this mansion was so frightened that they couldn't possess their bodies.

Fang Yiai just howled there: "That dog slave's bones are so hard, he only punched him, and it hurt terribly." ”

Then came the heart-rending cry.

Mrs. Fang was so distressed that she was dying of distress, and she said with tears on the side: "Okay, okay, don't cry, your mother will make the decision for you." ”

At this time, Fang Xuanling rushed in violently: "Be the master, what is the master, he beats people for no reason, how to call the shots?" Is his father the Son of Heaven? Even if it is the Son of Heaven, he can't do such nonsense, at a young age, he has become like this, and it is not the result of spoiling. ”

Mrs. Fang was suddenly furious and said, "How can Ah Lang say such a thing? He is not your flesh and blood, so don't you feel distressed? He's just a kid after all. ”

Although she was furious, in fact, Mrs. Fang was a little lacking in confidence.

Mrs. Fang actually knows very well that this Fang bereaved love is indeed stubborn and famous, and she doesn't know what to do in the future, she is still there, if she is not there in the future, someone will bully him, how can it be good?

Fang Xuanling sighed heavily, and said very weakly: "Why did things come to this point." ”

However, his tone softened significantly, and he lowered his eyebrows and looked pleasing to his eyes: "Isn't it for his good that I'm a father?" He's not young, he just spends his days idle, he doesn't study, he doesn't practice martial arts, and you don't want to think about what the outside says about him, hey...... In the future, this son will surely cause great trouble, and the one who will defeat my family business will definitely be this son. ”

Mrs. Fang was angry again, her eyes widened suddenly, and she stared straight at Fang Xuanling.

Fang Xuanling was startled under this angry gaze, and suddenly became full of desire to survive, and immediately changed the topic and said: "Today I went to see Your Majesty, saying that the prince had a recital, and ordered the widow to accompany the prince to read, hey...... I'm worried, I'm worried that once he gets to the prince's side, if he causes any trouble, it will be a big crime. But the Holy Command has been given, what else can be done? Madam, as a parent, you must make a long-term plan for your children and grandchildren, if your children and grandchildren are not good, the more you spoil him today, the more trouble he will suffer in the future! Our Fang family has finally come to where we are today, how can Mrs. Xian bear to see it defeat in the end. ”

Mrs. Fang really fell for the trick, and when she heard that she was going to read with her, she was also a little worried for a while, frowning and silent, not knowing what she was thinking.

Fang Xuanling stared at her cautiously, for fear that she would catch some of her words again.

After a long time, seeing that she didn't get angry with him anymore, she said in a gentler tone: "Who doesn't love their children as a father?" It's just that everything has to be done and not done, I am really worried that I can't sleep all night for the sake of my love, and it is difficult to sleep and eat! Don't you just hope that he can fight for a breath in the future? I don't ask him to make a contribution, but at least he can guard this family. ”

Fang Xuanling was more or less afraid of Fang Xuanling, so he didn't cry anymore, just hid aside and didn't say a word.

Mrs. Fang's eyes flickered, as if she was weighing something in her heart.

This made Fang Xuanling see that she was still silent, and she began to worry again, and tried hard to examine what she had just said.

Doesn't seem to be a problem.
