Chapter 113: Public Enemy of the Shi Clan
Kong Yingda's fainting caused chaos. Li Shimin asked Gonggong Gao to hurry up and announce the imperial doctor and carry him to the side hall for rescue. No matter how much Kong Yingda hates it, he is also the representative of the world's scholars after Kong Sheng, if he is killed in the palace by Li Muqi, there is really no way to explain it.
"Your Majesty, the minister has just checked it, Kong Sai is fine, but a big bag came out of the back of his head, it is said that he should have woken up, and he hasn't woken up yet......" The imperial doctor didn't say any more, but the meaning was already clear. Kong Yingda is pretending to be dizzy, no matter how good his medical skills are, he can't save a person who is pretending to be dizzy, and it's hard to say it clearly, so he has to be vague.
Li Shimin breathed a sigh of relief, Kong Yingda was fine, waved his hand and sent the imperial doctor away, and said to Gao Gong: "Prepare to carry Kong Aiqing back to the house, give him some warm and tonic things, and when he wakes up, pass on my words and let him recuperate." ”
"No."
Duke Gao took the order and left, Li Shimin looked at Li Mu, who was standing with his hands tied to the side, as if he had nothing to do with this matter, the more he looked at it, the more angry he became, and suddenly slapped the armrest of the Hu chair, making a loud noise that scared Li Mu. Fortunately, his kung fu of pretending to be stupid was quite passable, although he was startled, he could still keep it as it was, looking ahead, as if he hadn't heard.
Li Shimin raised his hand and pointed at Li Mu, and said, "I am a good deer marquis, and I am not small, but I dare to bully the king?" ”
Li Mu bowed to the ground and said, "Your Majesty, the minister doesn't know where to bully the king, please make it clear to Your Majesty!" ”
Li Shimin said: "Are you really from Mayi?" Ordinary people? When I am a child, I can't be coaxed? These three poems, one is better than the other, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a hand-me-down, even if you have read poetry and books since childhood, you may not be able to do it, if you are really from the ordinary people of Mayi, can you have such a literary style? ”
Li Mu said helplessly: "Your Majesty, what the minister said is true, I really don't know how to explain it." The minister has lived in Mayi for more than ten years, if you don't believe it, you can make a will, ask the county order of Mayi, or any person in Mayi City, they all know the minister! The minister was captured for delivering food, escaped from the Turkic camp to report the news, was wounded by an arrow, and there were ministers' stepfather Tang Jian, the ranger general Su Dingfang, and General Li Jing as evidence, and later met Li Siwen, his father-in-law Li Ji, etc., all of which have witnesses. How can a minister collude with so many people to deceive His Majesty? Your Majesty, please be aware of it! ”
Li Shimin frowned, it was right to think about it, assuming that Li Mu was a person with ulterior motives, it would be impossible for him to set up such a big situation and gather so many people to accompany him to deceive. If it's really a scam, it's too easy to debunk a little. Unless there are two people who are exactly the same in this world, the original Li Mu has been replaced by the person in front of him, but how is this possible, even if there are two people with similar appearances, the memory cannot be copied, can't the people close to him still recognize it?
Thinking like this, Li Shimin dispelled the idea that Li Mu was deceiving him. Where would he have thought that there was such a thing as crossing in this world.
Although he didn't suspect that Li Mu was lying to him, Li Shimin was still very curious and said: "Even if you didn't deceive the king, but you also said just now, most of the people in Ma Yi are illiterate, how can you be literate and compose poems?" ”
Li Mu had already thought of his words and said, "Your Majesty, the minister's mother asked the same question yesterday. The minister said that it was taught by Li Siwen, the minister's brother-in-law, but this is actually only half of it. The actual situation is that his father-in-law was worried that Li Siwen would abandon his studies and brought him a lot of books. Li Siwen, the minister's brother-in-law, hated and hated his studies. With his father-in-law by his side, he could take a few looks, and when his father-in-law led the army away, he piled up the books aside and dusted them. The minister is illiterate, and he yearns for literacy. Just take the book and read it yourself. ”
"When I first read the thousand-character text, I didn't know it, so I asked someone to ask, I asked Li Siwen, I also asked the cook who cooked for him, and some literate people among the homeless people. After more than ten days, I learned this thousand-word literature. After touching the doorway, the minister began to read books by himself, reading two or three books a day, and slowly finished reading more than 100 books. I haven't learned to be a poet, but the minister has read the poems in the book, such as Yuefu poems, etc., the minister is according to the gourd to draw the scoop, there is no skill, just fill in the words according to the format of the poem, the minister knows the meaning of the words, according to the rules of arrangement, I really don't feel the difficulty! ”
"I don't believe it." Li Shimin asked the little eunuch to take the pen and ink, put it on the ground, and ordered Li Mu to write out the poem he had just written. Li Shimin is proficient in calligraphy, whether a person is literate or not, or how long he can read, he can see from the handwriting, and the disguise cannot escape his eyes.
Fortunately, Li Mu really can't write calligraphy, and he doesn't need to dress. picked up the brush brush and wrote the poems, the same as the one given to Tang Guan, the handwriting was crooked, plus a lot of typos (simplified), Li Shimin watched Li Mu finish writing, and his brows were almost knotted. Such a good poem, with such a terrible calligraphy, gives people the feeling that the steamed bun that has just come out of the pot has not been held firmly and fell on a bubble of thin cow dung.
Li Shimin looked at the poems written by Li Mu, didn't say anything for a while, and said after a while: "You have to practice calligraphy, otherwise, I won't be able to understand the excerpts I write in the future!" ”
Li Mu said with a blushing face: "Your Majesty, the minister can find someone to write it on his behalf." ”
Li Shimin couldn't help but knock on his skull and said, "Do you still have a little ambition?" I ordered you to practice calligraphy, and within three months, you must practice the words well, and then let me see these words like a dog crawling, and I will cut your title! ”
"The minister commands."
Li Mu's face was full of boring, which made Li Shimin feel helpless and angry. Who can not love talents, especially Li Shimin, who is eager to seek talents, Li Mu's talent has been deeply engraved in Li Shimin's heart.
Li Shimin bent down to help Li Mu up and said, "You just talked about the new type of plough, can you really make a plow that doubles the speed of ploughing?" ”
"Almost!" Li Mu was about to tell Li Shimin about the structure of the Quyuan plow, but there was no real thing, it was a little difficult to say, he looked down and saw that the pen and ink on the ground had not been torn off, so he simply squatted down and drew a simple pen with a pen. Li Mu is a game designer, drawing is his old profession, although only a few strokes, but he has already drawn the structure of the Quyuan plow.
"Your Majesty, please see that this new type of plow designed by the minister has several major improvements. First of all, the straight wheel, the long wheel is changed to the curved wheel, the short wheel, and the plow disc that can rotate freely is installed at the head of the wheel, so that not only the plow frame becomes smaller and lighter, but also is convenient for turning and turning, the operation is flexible, and the manpower and animal power are saved. The minister also plans to design a new type of ploughshare, the current ploughshare are single-sided, and the minister intends to design a double-sided ploughshare, which has a smaller contact surface with the earth, and can break the land faster, which is not only beneficial to cultivation, but also can be used for land reclamation......"
Li Shimin listened in a daze for a long time, and found that he couldn't understand at all, so he interrupted and said, "Okay, you don't need to explain to me, I don't understand." If you can really study this new type of ploughing, I will definitely reward you. ”
After a pause, Li Shimin said again: "What you just said has some truth, but cultural and educational matters are also one of the foundations of the country, and they should not be neglected." Kong Yingda has a special identity and is old, so he will rarely quarrel with him in the future. Fortunately, there was no accident today, if something really happened, you would be the enemy of the world's scholars, and the scholars would not let you go. ”
When Li Mu heard this, his eyes rolled, and he bowed down and said, "If you can become rich and powerful Tang, you are willing to be anyone's enemy." Even if you become the public enemy of the nobles, what does it matter! ”
Li Shimin laughed: "Flamboyant, it's none of your business, study the plough well, practice calligraphy well, do things for the emperor well, don't cause trouble, go!" ”
"Retire!"
