Chapter Ninety-Six: There is a road for the road in Shushan

The entrance of the academy is already beginning to show its outline.

Tao Ran had already thought about the four big characters of Nanshan Academy, and he must let His Majesty Li Er personally mention them.

Rows of classrooms and dormitories have begun to take shape.

The kitchen of the college is built at the innermost point against the mountain spring, which saves a lot of trouble in carrying water from the bottom of the mountain to the top.

Tao Ran took a handful of mountain springs with his hand, and a sweet taste went straight to his heart.

It is much sweeter and better than various brands of mineral water in later generations.

At Tao Ran's insistence, a circular square like a playground was retained in the middle of the college.

This is where Tao Ran is preparing to give students physical education classes and large-scale group activities, as well as military training.

Prince Li Chengqian and Princess Changle have recently come to watch the progress of the academy's construction almost every day.

The two couldn't wait to see Nanshan College completed as soon as possible.

"Teacher, I also want to take a sip of the mountain spring." Princess Changle and Prince Li Chengqian called softly behind them.

"Okay, come here, teacher, carefully watch the stones under your feet, the stones are very slippery, be careful of slipping." Tao Ran instructed seriously.

Prince Li Chengqian and Princess Changle held hands and slowly walked to Tao Ran's side together.

The two drank such a sweet mountain spring for the first time, and drank happily.

"Teacher, can you lend me a kettle, so that my father and queen mother can also taste the taste of the mountain spring."

Princess Changle asked with her big beautiful eyes.

How could Tao Ran bear to extinguish the filial piety of a princess, so he asked Ma Zhou to bring a kettle and fill it with a pot of mountain spring water, and handed it over to Cheng Chumo, the best guard of the prince and princess.

Now Cheng Chumo's six guards in the East Palace are very chic, and every day he accompanies the prince to Tao Ran to visit the mountains and rivers.

You can also mix a free meal at noon, and on such a day, Cheng Chumo feels that even the hot sun is kind.

"Teacher, is there any meaning to laying so many stone steps?" When the crown prince Li Chengqian walked down the mountain, he asked.

Because only after Tao Ran paved the mountain road into stone steps, the carriage could not go up and down the college, and it was really hard.

Every time he climbed with Princess Changle, he sweated profusely.

"yes." Princess Changle also said curiously.

"The teacher told you that the meaning of laying the stone steps is to let you all think about a truth on the way to the academy."

Tao Ran pretended to be profound.

"What's the truth?" Princess Changle asked impatiently.

"There is a road for the road in the Book Mountain." Tao Ran said with a calm smile...

"There is a road for the road in the Book Mountain." The crown prince Li Chengqian and the princess Li Lizhi were all petrified on the spot and murmured softly.

"Teacher, can you explain the confusion of the students?" Prince Li Chengqian said modestly.

Princess Changle also kept nodding her head in support on the side.

Tao Ran stood on the top of the stone steps and pointed to the bottom of the mountain.

"When the school year starts, all 800 students will be at the bottom of the mountain and will go up the mountain together. The energy and perseverance you possess determine the time and speed at which you arrive at the academy, and in the same way as reading and studying, when everyone has the same qualifications, diligence is the only way to make up for and open up the gap. ”

Tao Ran said earnestly.

The crown prince Li Chengqian and the princess Li Lizhen nodded in unison.

"Teacher, I understand, I will definitely study hard." Prince Li Chengqian said.

"Teacher, I also understand that there is a diligent path in Shushan. There should be a second half of the sentence, right? The smart Changle princess Li Lizhi looked up at her teacher Tao Ran and asked.

Tao Ran had to sigh that these were two extremely smart children.

"Of course, there is the next sentence, there is no end to learning the sea." Tao Ran blurted out his debut.

"There is a road and diligence in the book mountain, and there is no end to the hard work of learning the sea, I understand, the first half of the sentence talks about diligence, and the second half of the sentence talks about hard work." Prince Li Chengqian looked up at Tao Ran and said.

"Good, good, very good..."Tao Ran smiled and praised three times in a row.

"The teacher is actually the same as you, has been on the road of learning, the so-called endless learning is this meaning, the sea of learning is endless, the ocean of knowledge is not the other side, we can only work hard to make a small boat in the ocean of knowledge."

Tao Ran looked at the two wide-eyed and bright eyes, and the prince and princess spoke.

"Teacher, students think that it is best to post these two sentences at the door of our college, so that we can see these two inspiring sentences when we look up at school every day, and always motivate us to study hard***** Li Chengqian opened his mouth and suggested.

"Well, what the prince said is very true, I don't know who has the best calligraphy in Chang'an City? The teacher wants to find the best calligraphy to write these two sentences, and the four big characters of Nanshan College, the teacher thinks it is best to write it by His Majesty. ”

"Teacher, there is a candidate for the student." Prince Li Chengqian opened his mouth and said.

"Oh, the prince didn't guard against it."

"The student's calligraphy is excellent, and even his father is full of praise for it, I don't know what the teacher thinks?" Prince Li Chengqian looked up at Tao Ran and asked.

"That's very good, this matter will be handed over to the prince, the teacher is waiting for your good news, and tell His Majesty about the Nanshan Academy." Tao Ran admonished.

"Don't worry, teachers and students keep it in mind. Teacher, student has one more request. Prince Li Chengqian said with a red face.

"What's the matter? Why are you still blushing? Tao Ran said with a smile.

"Teacher, after the students come to the academy to study, Master Li Gang will inevitably be lost and lonely, and the students wonder if the teacher can arrange a position for Master Li in the academy?"

Prince Li Chengqian said embarrassedly.

"Since it is the prince's intention, how can the teacher not agree? Besides, this also proves that the prince is a grateful person, and the teacher is willing to hire Mrs. Li to serve as the vice president of the college. ”

Tao Ran said with a smile.

"Ah, the teacher is so nice!" The crown prince Li Chengqian was obviously stunned for a moment, and immediately became excited.

"I'll go back and tell Master Li, Taishi will definitely be very happy to come to the academy as the vice president..."

Li Chengqian and Princess Changle trotted all the way down the mountain.

Tao Ran stood at the gate of the academy and watched the carriage of the prince and princess driven by the prince disappear from his sight.

"Sir, the student has something to ask for." The crown prince Li Chengqian said to Li Gang.

"What's the matter with the prince, don't be afraid to say it directly." Although he knew that the prince would soon go to Nanshan College to study, the deep teacher-student friendship he had established with the prince in the past few years could not be cut off for a while.

"The student wants to ask for a word for the college." Prince Li Chengqian opened his mouth and said.

"What words, can still alarm the prince to speak in person." Li Gang asked curiously.
