Since you have decided to train your younger brother well, then naturally follow your personal interests first, Xiaotai's interest has long been known to him, that is the great ambition of aspiring to become a saint and an ancestor, and has also gained a lot of support in the court, since he likes to read, it will be easy to do, first come to this math to read to him, and after reading it back, he is thinking about the future.

The most difficult thing to do is Li Ke, three sticks can't make a fart, but in the end, under Li Chengyang's repeated questioning, he stammered his ambition: to be a person who is helpful to his father.

This is equivalent to not saying it, as long as you don't get into trouble, doing something will not help Li Shimin, come on, this kid will also come to this math first, no matter what you want to do in the future, math is the foundation of everything.

Chengqian hasn't come back yet, Li Chengyang is ready to take it with him, and follow him to learn things in the future, girls just have to have a little special treatment, what patriarchy, there is absolutely no such thing in him.

After a while, Li Chengqian will first look at this mathematics after class, and then slowly observe what kind of talent these people have, and then teach them according to their aptitude.

clapped his hands, took Li Lizhi's little hand and said to Li Tai: "You dream of becoming a real reader, do you know what a real reader looks like, have you ever seen it?" ”。

Li Tai's chubby head kept nodding: "Of course I have seen it, the Guozi Prison is full of scholars, and the second brother will become a scholar in a few days, and it will take me a long time to study with me, and I am not a scholar."

Li Chengyang smiled, the child's world is so pure, holding a book is a reader, if only there were such simple things in the world.

Touched Li Tai's head: "Then do you know what the scholars learn and do?" ”。

After thinking about it, Li Tai replied: "Scholars read the books of sages, learn the Four Books and the Five Classics, and do the great things of governing the world, the people can't live without them, and they will no longer be the father without their father."

"Who told you that? If you have someone close to you, then you can go back and ask him how he governs the world, and how he allows the people to live under his rule, and if he can't answer, you will quit him, and if he can answer, go to the concubine, or come to me to ask if he is right."

This kind of thing is definitely not something that Li Tai, a five-year-old child, can say, he is only just learning now, and he can't think of such a thing, even if he is a genius.

It must have been taught to him by the people around him, this kind of person who has instilled in him since he was a child that the superior cannot leave the scholar, he knows with his toes that he must be a member of the family, after all, there are the most scholars around them, not only Li Tai, but also Li Ke and Li Chengqian have also encountered the same thing, and unconsciously instilled a subconscious in Li Shimin's sons, their Li family can't live without the scholars, so the family as the representative of the scholars naturally can't be offended.

By the time these princes take over the throne, the three views have become a foregone conclusion, even if they are afraid of the family, they dare not break through the shackles in their hearts and act recklessly against the family.

Li Shimin doesn't have this idea, he doesn't do it to the family because he is afraid that the family will die and the net will be broken, he doesn't care too much about the so-called readers, after all, the Li family is orthodox now, once the family is destroyed, there are only a few who are willing to go to the black after all, and smart people know how to choose.

Li Tai scratched his head, trying to remember who said this next to him, it was a little eunuch next to him who told him, and now this person is waiting at the door of the back garden waiting to serve his master.

The chubby little hand pointed out: "Big brother, that's what the little eunuch told me, you don't have to wait to go back, you can ask now, hey, come here, my eldest brother has something to ask you."

Hearing this, the little eunuch hurriedly ran two steps, bowed his body, and lowered his head to look at his toes: "I don't know what His Royal Highness King Qin is looking for?" ”。

"I ask you, have you ever read?" Squinted at the ill-intentioned eunuch and asked angrily.

"Back to His Royal Highness, the little one has read the book, and the little one was sent to serve the king of the guard, just for the sake of the little one who has read for a few years, so that the little one can serve His Royal Highness every day" The little eunuch didn't know what Li Chengyang meant, so he had to answer truthfully, as a playmate and close attendant by Li Tai's side, he also had a bit of a scholar's meaning in it.

"Well, this king asks you, if you are appointed as a county commander, how do you want to govern the people under your rule" This begins, since you have read the book and said something like that, if you can't say that you are ugly, then it is no wonder that Li Chengyang is unknown.

The eunuch relaxed when he heard this, this is to test his knowledge? He asked himself, who had read a lot of books, and he opened his mouth to come: "To be an official, you must be fair and honest, practice what you do, carry out education in the county, teach the people to know the law clearly, be benevolent, righteous and moral, and when the people have learned, then there will be no more hunger worries in this county, and great governance can be achieved."

There is nothing wrong with this, even if the ministers of the court answer can't go beyond this category, everyone answers like this, no matter how harsh you King Qin are, you can't find a reason to refute it.

didn't think that Li Chengyang didn't want to deal with him at all, but rubbed Li Tai's head and said to him: "Xiaotai, do you think what he said is right, is there some truth?" ”。

Li Tai broke free of the big hand that was still rubbing his head, and replied dissatisfiedly: "Isn't what he said right, when you are an honest official and make decisions for the people, then natural public order will be good, and the people will be reasonable, and they will naturally farm with peace of mind, I don't hear anything wrong."

"Okay, you see that the eldest brother continues to ask" didn't care about this answer, the key is the next words: "Since you said so, I also think what you said is reasonable, then I will give you a question now, there is a sudden flood in a place in your county, and there are more than 300 homeless households, now I ask you, if you want to keep 300 households from suffering from freezing and starvation, what should you do as a county magistrate?" ”。

The little eunuch was stunned, anyone can say big things, but when it comes to the specific operation, it is another matter, and after thinking about it for a long time, he returned: "Of course, it is to raise grain and grass first, distribute it to each household, and also"

At the beginning of the conversation, he was interrupted by Li Chengyang: "Okay, tell me how many people there are in these 300 households, and how much grain and grass you need to raise to ensure that these people have food to eat until they find a way to live, and give you a pillar of incense time, you can count."

After speaking, he looked back at Li Tai: "Have you learned mathematics, if you learn it, you will also calculate."

Li Tai nodded, the six arts of the gentleman, and the number of Lile shooting imperial books they all dabbled in, because of their age, they were only superficial, but the matter of calculating the population of three hundred households could still be done in his mind.

Time passed minute by minute, seeing that the time for a stick of incense was about to come, the little eunuch had already put down the wooden stick in his hand to write and draw and knelt on the ground to plead guilty, Li Tai was still holding his mouth, tears kept rolling in his eyes, as if he was going to cry out in the next moment.

Li Chengyang pouted proudly, that's all? How many years have you read? In fact, he buried a pit in this question, and the biggest difficulty was not to calculate how much food there was, but how many people were affected by the disaster.

After the founding of the Tang Dynasty, the household registration became a mess, in order to increase the tax collection in the Sui Dynasty, each household would be divided, stipulating that each male family should be divided once he became an adult, and the family that came out was a new household, and all the people were divided, the population did not change, but the tax was collected by household, and the tax was doubled.

The founding of the Tang Dynasty changed to collect taxes from men, and naturally there was no longer any restriction on the management of each household, and the people abandoned their household registration one after another, and changed back to the original household registration.

And some of the unlucky men in the family are gone, relying on a woman to support, this is all the sins created back then, to know how many people are in each household? The gods have to scratch their heads when they come, this is still a point that Li Chengyang only knew about after checking the taxes in the household department for a month, the little eunuch? Looking at the way he knelt on the ground and shivered, he knew that he didn't understand anything.

Li Tai still didn't control it, and he cried out, just three hundred families made him anxious, and he encountered the Waterloo of life at the beginning, and he was about to run to find the warm embrace of his eldest grandson, but he was pulled back by Li Chengyang:

"Today, the eldest brother will teach you a lesson, who should believe and who should not believe, don't cry, listen well, and you Li Ke, what else is there to coax here, put away your appearance, I don't know and think I'm bullying you, Lizhi, you come here, you listen more if it's okay."

Li Tai wiped the tears that were still flowing, and held back his tears, he was very curious about what Li Chengyang was going to say, it was rare for the eldest brother to educate them so seriously like his father.

Seeing that the situation had stabilized, he said to the little eunuch: "The question I just asked is indeed a bit tricky, but if it is according to what you told Xiaotai, the scholar is really so powerful, it will not be difficult for you, of course, you are a little eunuch and I don't ask you more, now I will give you the simplest thing, if you do it well, this thing will not happen today, how about it."

What else can I do, people are swords, I am fish and meat, you King Qin have shown the knife, do you dare not accept it: "Please also ask King Qin to ask the question, the little one will do his best."

Li Chengyang nodded with satisfaction, as if this was the first time he had experienced the taste of power, just because his identity was here, what did he want this eunuch to do, and this little eunuch didn't dare not do it.

He pointed his hand back: "Do you see the land that has just opened, it was opened by me and my father the day before yesterday, now give you tools, gardener, gardener, take out all the things you ploughed the ground, let him try" After calling the gardener, he said to the little eunuch: "Even as an official, you once said that a scholar can do anything, farming is the foundation of all things, you go and take the tools, just find some seeds and take them as food, just find a place to start planting, and after planting, this matter will be over."

If the gardener wants to take care of this place all the time, of course he has the tools to go to the ground, so he immediately took it out and handed it to the little eunuch, and also thoughtfully sent some seeds of unknown flowers.

The little eunuch had flowers in one hand and tools in the other, and the whole person couldn't stand, Li Tai asked curiously: "Hey, don't you tell me every day that the people take the officials as the sky, and the officials should be the parents of the people, how to plant the land and grind, hurry up."

Hearing this, the little eunuch dropped the tools in his hand, walked to Li Tai's feet on his knees, hugged Li Tai's legs and cried: "Your Highness, spare your life, Your Highness, please see that the little one has served you for a year, and there is no merit and hard work, just spare the little one's life, and the little one will never have the courage to deceive His Highness in the future."
