Chapter 247: Shocking
"Say a few words to me! You said that Kong Aiqing doesn't understand benevolent governance, do you understand? β
"The minister didn't say he understood, but the minister didn't have the cheekiness to teach! The minister thinks that the government decree is benevolent or unkind, and the people have their own opinions. Monarchs and ministers, just work hard. As long as you are willing to work hard in a good direction, the result will not be too bad. Even if the result is not satisfactory, it is the best of the bad results, do your best, obey the destiny of heaven, there is no choice but to accept fate! β
Li Shimin felt Kong Yingda's feelings when he faced Li Mu, and this kid was too good to say. The most infuriating thing is that there is no sense of proportion at all, even if you are reasonable, can't you save some face?
Just as he was about to say something more, Li Mu seemed to suddenly realize something, and said to himself: "Oh, I shouldn't have said this." Thanks to a teacher like Lao Kong, who teaches disciples like wood, people like me can play to their heart's content, if everyone is Li Mu, wouldn't I, Li Mu, starve to death? That's it, Lao Kong, today I didn't say anything, you spoke very well, you said it right. β
Kong Yingda's face turned pale, he took a deep breath, made a disciple salute to Li Mu, and said: "There is no need to be so cynical and sarcastic, the skills are not as good as others, Kong Yingda will admit it." What Zhuluhou said, thought-provoking, in the next self-study repeatedly, before it is thorough, do not mistake people's children! β
"Well, that's right." Li Mu spread his hands and said with a smile: "I am very relieved that you can understand this truth." It is also worthy of your bow, just like what is said in "The Teacher Says", there is a sequence of hearing the Tao. Although I came into contact with the Confucian scriptures later than you, this does not prevent me from 'hearing the Tao' earlier than you. Late, on the contrary, is my advantage, because the Confucian scriptures and teachings that I have come into contact with have not been interpreted by the so-called great Confucians like you, and what I have learned is the Tao that I myself have learned from the words of the sages, and what you have learned is the Tao that your teacher gave you, which is different. β
As he spoke, Li Mu turned to the students again and said, "I said this to Kong Saijiu." How you should learn, how you have to learn, just bring your brains. β
Li Chengqian shouted: "Father, the emperor, the sons also want to follow the example of the eldest brother and learn Confucian scriptures and righteousness by themselves!" β
"No way!" Li Shimin did not talk nonsense and directly vetoed it.
Li Chengqian was unconvinced: "Father, why can't you?" The eldest brother didn't have a teacher to teach, but before he 'smelled' the Confucian sacrifice wine, I didn't want a teacher-"
Li Shimin glared at Li Mu angrily, and Li Mu had no choice but to take over: "Prince, let me ask you, are you a genius?" β
"Uh......" Although Li Chengqian wanted to be cheeky and say that he was a genius, but since he was a child, no one said that he was a genius, so he was still a little afraid to say it, so he snorted twice and didn't make a sound.
Li Mu chuckled lightly, extremely arrogant: "If you want to be like me, you can!" First ask yourself if you are a genius like me, if so, what I do, you can do what you can do, how I do, you can do it, the result will be the same, but if you are not a genius, you still want to emulate me, the result - think for yourself. β
Li Chengqian was twelve years old, how could he have seen such an invisible pretend, and his self-esteem was suddenly frustrated and he hung his head. Li Shimin glared at Li Mu unhappily, and said arrogantly stinky boy, this is my son, the crown prince, the future emperor, and I was frustrated by you and made worthless? You are a genius, he is still a dragon grandson! Is it worse than you?
But when the words came to his lips, Li Shimin thought about it and forgot it. Li Mu, this kid has no virtue, in case he says something again, he will be derogatory along with me. What can I do to him? Punish him? Kill him? The rumor will go out, and the reputation of jealousy and jealousy is not good.
Li Mu Yuguang kept looking at Li Shimin, and he guessed that it was okay, so he dared to say so, smiled and said: "Students, don't think I'm arrogant. Arrogance requires capital, and if you can do what I did, you can also stand here and talk eloquently, and you will definitely not feel arrogant at that time. β
"Do you really think I'm arrogant and happy? No, you will not understand my pain. I'm lonely! I sincerely hope that one day, you can be as good as me, if there is really that day, Datang will be prosperous because of the existence of you and me. My emperor is already a saint, I will treat the virtuous ministers as a good one, the prosperous era is just around the corner, we are all hot-blooded young people, we can't expect an old man like Lao Kong to prosper the Tang Dynasty, if that, does my Tang Dynasty have a future? β
The students have been successfully brainwashed, and they screamed with excitement, Li Mu raised his hand to soothe everyone's emotions: "Study hard, make progress every day, the future of Datang is in your hands!" Alright, that's the end of today's lesson, please give your Majesty lunch! β
Li Shimin had just ignited a little anger, and was slapped by Li Mu's sycophancy, and was immediately shot away, glaring at Li Mu angrily and laughing, waving his hand, and saying, "Pass the meal." β
Gao Gonggong was already prepared next to him, and when he heard the words, he immediately arranged to pass on the meal, and the students enjoyed it on their own study cases, while Li Mu and Kong Yingda, as well as Li Chengqian and Li Tai, were taken to the Taiji Hall by Li Shimin, because he had something to say to Li Mu.
Kong Yingda looked a little sluggish, and after giving the seat, he sat down in a daze, eating and drinking by himself, without saying a word. Li Shimin could understand his mood, and he didn't bother him, and asked Li Mu to himself, "You kid did it on purpose!" I asked you to give a lecture, and you just said these shocking words? β
Li Mu just picked up the wine glass, and before he could drink it, he was questioned, and he was unhappy, and said, "Your Majesty, the minister is so wronged." You let the minister teach, and the minister will teach. The content taught by the minister is all obtained by the minister from studying the Confucian scriptures, and even Lao Kong has to admit that the minister did not make up nonsense to frame the ancients, how can it be shocking to the world? This is still those students who said this because they didn't leave, and the lecture that the minister originally planned to give to the prince and the king of Yue was even more shocking than this. β
When Li Chengqian and Li Tai heard this, their eyes immediately widened, and they wanted to ask what was shocking, but they didn't dare to speak nonsense in front of Li Shimin.
Li Shimin was also very curious, looked at Li Mu, and asked, "Is there anything more shocking?" β
Li Mu ate a piece of meat, shook his head, and said, "The minister still doesn't say it, it's inconvenient to say it in front of you." β
"I'll let you speak."
"Say?" Li Mu asked cautiously in confirmation.
Li Shimin nodded.
"Oh, that's what the minister said." Li Mu cleared his throat and said, "The minister plans to discuss with the prince how to sit firmly on the throne of the prince and prevent King Yue from rebelling. At the same time, the minister also wants to discuss with King Yue, if he rebels, can he have a chance of winning, and what are the odds of winββ"
"Poofβ"
"Poofβ"
Li Shimin and Kong Yingda squirted out the wine in their mouths at the same time, and the two looked at Li Mu dumbfounded. Kong Yingda stood up and asked loudly: "Zhuluhou, aren't you crazy?" How do you say the old man, the old man has recognized it. You, how dare you be so rebellious, what are your intentions! β
Li Shimin also frowned and said, "Li Mu, you are too presumptuous, can you talk nonsense like this?" β
"Your Majesty, Lao Kong, you are so excited." Li Mu sighed and said with a serious face: "This is just a lesson, and it's not true. Besides, I didn't talk about this in front of those students, I just discussed it. This is also based on the Confucian scriptures, but the examples are different. β
Kong Yingda said angrily: "Where can my Confucianism have such a great rebellion? You name it! β
"Why not, Confucius said, I have five out of ten and learn. Confucius, at the age of fifteen, decided to study and became a saint. Our Majesty, five times out of ten, is determined to conquer the world. The crown prince was twelve years old, and the king of Yue was ten years old, and he soon reached the age of determination. I'll talk to them about ambition first, is that wrong? β
Li Shimin frowned and said: "If you discuss your aspirations, you will discuss your aspirations, what do you say about rebellion, what does it have to do with rebellion?" β
"Your Majesty, this question needs to be analyzed. Prince, what ambitions can he have? Inherit the throne and be a good emperor. After he became the emperor, what he was most afraid of was naturally that the throne was unstable. What about the Yue King? What ambition can he have, and his greatest ambition is not to take the throne, and it is right for the ministers to discuss these issues with them! β
Li Shimin's face was pale, and from Li Mu's words, he heard some traces of his body, and said unhappily: "Then don't discuss!" β
Li Mu did not give up, and said, "Your Majesty, why don't you ask the crown prince and the king of Yue?" β
"No-" Li Shimin was about to veto, when he suddenly saw his two sons' eyes shining, as if they had something to say, and his heart moved, Li Chengqian had already spoken, and said, "Father, this question, the son wants to answer." β
Li Shimin hesitated, nodded, and said, "Okay, Cheng Qian, you say." β
Li Chengqian straightened up and said, "Big brother, you think it's bad." Although I am the crown prince, my ambition is not to inherit the throne and guard against my brother. My ambition is to be like my father, to be a great general who can conquer the Quartet and pacify the world. If my father asks me to be a general, I can not be the prince, and the crown prince will be given to Qingque, let him be the emperor, and I will be the general! β
Li Tai hurriedly said: "Brother Huang, don't! You have ambitions, and so do I. My eldest brother also thought badly, my ambition is not to be a prince, I am obsessed with learning, my ambition is to be a learned person, arithmetic, mathematics, geography, graphics, etc., what I want to do is this kind of learning, I don't want to be a prince, I can't do it, you don't want to be a prince, why do you have to push it to me? Isn't there still ......" Although Li Tai didn't want to do it, he was not stupid, knowing that this throne could not be pushed to the concubine, he gritted his teeth and said, "Aren't there still childish slaves?" He could, let him come! β
Li Shimin's head jumped when he heard this, and he patted the case: "Two bastard things!" The young slave is only two years old! What are you talking about! Cheng Qian! You don't need you to be a general, I don't need you to be a general, you just need to be a good prince! And you, Qingque, what is the academic number of geographical charts, I see that you are a plaything! I, I have to punish you! β
