After resting for a long time, Qin Mubai estimated that Li Zhi and they should wake up, so he returned to the Penglai Palace. When he walked outside the dormitory, he was amused. Voices came from inside the room—

"Baa, I'm a beautiful sheep, Brother Jiu, you're a gray wolf! You're going to catch me, you're going to catch me, hee-hee! Li Mingda's voice.

"Don't! I'm Pleasant Goat! Ash Taro has a scar on his face, and a vicious wife who specializes in hitting him on the head with a spoon, so I don't want to be Ash Taro! Li Zhi was indignant.

"What then? There's no Gray Taro, nurse, you're going to play Gray Taro, right? ”

"No, the wet nurse is a woman, and Gray Taro is a man - let the wet nurse play Gray Taro's wife. Call that eunuch to pretend to be Gray Taro, haha! ”

"Good! Good! Brother Jiu, you are smart, hehe-hee - why can't you come over and play with us! ”

……

Qin Mubai stood outside the door and listened for a long time, and couldn't help laughing. There was a sound in the room, and those eunuchs, nurses, and palace maids were all called over to play their roles. The sheep were rolling and barking all over the ground, and the Gray Taro and his wife were turning in circles to chase them, which was really noisy. The laughter of Li Zhi and Li Mingda can be described as "rampant".

When they were all tired of playing, Qin Mubai pushed the door in.

Li Zhi and Li Mingda were already sitting on the ground panting, still giggling. Those eunuch palace maids and nurses rolled all over the ground for a while, and they were also tossed enough.

"Pleasant goat, look, General Qin is here! Hee-hee! Li Mingda stretched out his little hand, pointed at Qin Mubai and said with a smile.

"Shall we let him pretend to be the village chief and protect us?" Li Zhi said.

"Okay, okay!" Li Mingda clapped his hands, "General Qin, you are the village chief, you are the village chief who protects us!" ”

Qin Mubai walked over with a smile, squatted down and patted them on the back: "Okay, I'm the village chief, and I'm the village chief who protects you - look at it, my clothes are soaked with sweat." Nurse, give the two little highnesses a bath, and we will have to go to the gentleman's class later. ”

"No, I don't want to go to class!" Li Zhi shook his head stubbornly, "I'm going to play Pleasant Goat and Gray Taro!" ”

"Brother Jiu, let's go!" Li Mingda took Li Zhi's hand and shook it, and said, "I haven't finished writing a word yesterday!" Go, go, come back and play again, okay? ”

Qin Mubai smiled and said, "King Jin, you see how well-behaved the princess is, like a beautiful sheep." Since you play the smartest and most sensible Pleasant Goat, how can you skip school and not go to class? That's the most useless lazy sheep. ”

"Oh...... Then I'll go study. Li Zhi looked at Qin Mubai in a daze and nodded.

"That's good." Qin Mubai patted them on the back, "Now, let's go take a shower first." I'll take you to my husband's later. ”

"Oh!"

The two little guys were taken to take a bath by the nurse, and Qin Mubai breathed a sigh of relief. Today, he doesn't know how much he breathed. This is really not good at dealing with children. Ten-year-old Li Zhi is sometimes not as sensible and smart as five or six-year-old Li Mingda. The future emperor of the Tang Dynasty now seems to be a little wooden, at least compared to Princess Gaoyang and Li Mingda, he is not very clever. Speaking of which, if he is as clever as his father and grows up and is as wise, how could he give up the great Tang Dynasty to Wu Meiniang?

Not anymore, though. Wu Meiniang has become my Qin Mubai's daughter-in-law, and this history has also undergone a little deflection...... Since it has been deflected, can Li Zhi become the emperor in the end?

Thinking of this, Qin Mubai felt a little dazed and big, and finally decided not to think about it. Regardless of what history turns out to be, my own life has to be wonderful. In other words, the era of the Tang Dynasty is not bad, and I am embarrassed to do the things that have brought disaster to the country and the people, and it is also very rewarding to create great achievements for future generations to admire.

Soon, Qin Mubai led Li Zhi and Li Mingda to study in the study.

The teacher that Li Shimin invited to these two princes is a big name - Yu Shinan!

Yu Shinan is almost eighty years old, and he has already been ranked, but Li Shimin loves his talent deeply, and after he begs for his bones, he hired him as a bachelor of Hongwen Pavilion. There, he is undoubtedly a character like Taishan Beidou. As early as the Sui Dynasty, he was Emperor Yang's living housekeeper, that is, a secretary and a think tank. Later, he became one of the eighteen scholars of the Qin Palace, and his full of knowledge reached the sea and was praised by the world. Li Shimin praised his "virtue, loyalty, erudition, literary words, and calligraphy" as the five uniques. In fact, his best is still calligraphy, that is, calligraphy.

Yu Shinan's calligraphy was studied under Wang Xizhi's seventh grandson, the Sui Dynasty calligrapher Zhiyong Zen Master, and he won the essence. Today, he is recognized as the "first pen of the dynasty", Li Shimin greatly admired his calligraphy, and when he was healthy in his early years, most of Li Shimin's decrees and decrees were written by him.

Although Qin Mubai has always been more conceited, he has always respected an elder like Yu Shinan who is outstanding in virtue and talent. When he brought the two princes here, he also saluted Yu Shinan with a very sincere attitude.

Yu Shinan's hair and beard were all white, and it seemed that his health was not too good, so he looked at Qin Mubai for a long time before he said, "You are ...... The hundred horsemen envoy Qin Mu Bai Qin general, right? ”

"Does Mr. Yu recognize me?" Qin Mubai smiled, "Yes, it's just below." ”

"Yes, yes, it's really a talent, and the future is terrifying!" Yu Shinan stroked his shiny white beard with his withered hair, and said with a smile.

"The gentleman praised it falsely. I have no knowledge in my lower abdomen, and I have always been very ashamed. Qin Mubai said.

"General Qin is too modest." Yu Shinan smiled and said, "Five-flowered horses, daughter-qiu, Hu'er will exchange for fine wine, and sell eternal enmity with you - such a poem, and it can be made by a reckless person in the belly?" ”

"Uh...... This! Qin Mubai was dumbfounded for a while, and then suddenly remembered that Li Tai had indeed said that he wanted to ask Yu Shinan to write down the title of this poem, and then engrave it into a tablet, could it be that this matter has already been done?

"Hehe, gossip is off, please sit down, your highnesses, let's start class, shall we?" Yu Shinan diverted the topic and said to the Li Zhi brothers and sisters.

The Li Zhi brothers and sisters sat down in a proper manner and began to attend class. There are two classes in today's class, one is to learn the Book of Filial Piety, and the other is to practice calligraphy. After the class began, Qin Mubai walked out and waited outside the door.

I can hear the old and two children reading the "Book of Filial Piety" in the room, which is quite elegant and childlike. Later, when he was learning calligraphy, Qin Mubai walked in and glanced at it twice. Unexpectedly, the five or six-year-old Li Mingda's handwriting is far more beautiful than Li Zhi's handwriting.

Li Zhi learned Yu Shinan's font, while Li Mingda learned Li Shimin's self-created and self-contained "Feibai Book". is only five or six years old at a young age, and Li Mingda has already learned the charm of this flying white book. Yu Shinan looked at Qin Mubai from time to time and nodded and smiled, meaning to express his approval and amazement to this little girl.

"What a genius child!" Qin Mubai was also amazed in his heart.

When the two little dolls finished their lessons, they shouted happily and asked Qin Mubai to start telling them stories. Qin Mubai coaxed them for a while to wait outside the study first, and walked in front of Yu Shinan and bowed.

"Is there something wrong with General Qin?" Yu Shinan asked with a smile.

"Sir, I have a reluctant request, I wonder if Mr. can agree?" Qin Mubai said.

"General, let's hear it."

"On weekdays, I also like to read. I just read a lot of places, and I don't know much about them. In the barracks, in the palace, I don't know who to ask for advice at the next moment. Qin Mubai smiled, "So I'm thinking, if there is something I don't understand in the future, can I ask Mr. for advice?" ”

"Yes!" Yu Shinan was very refreshing, without the pretentiousness common to many literati, and said with a smile, "Are you so diligent and studious and humble, if the old man can guide a young man like you, it is also a blessing!" The old man doesn't have a few days to live, if he can leave a little more in this world, just leave a little more, hehe! ”

"Thank you, Mr. Yu!" Qin Mubai thanked him gratefully.

In fact, those poems and articles, ancient books and classics, Qin Mubai is really not very interested. The reason why he wanted to "steal a teacher" from Yu Shinan like this was nothing more than to get a little more guidance from him on the way to be an official and the way to deal with the world.

Yu Shinan served by the emperor's side in two dynasties, and his knowledge and insight in many aspects were enough to be Qin Mubai's teacher. Since the last conflict with the eldest grandson, Qin Mubai has deeply understood the truth of "there are people outside the world", and he also realized that he is really still very tender and tender, and he must strengthen his cultivation and study.

Right now, isn't Yu Shinan the best teacher? Follow him and you can learn anything. Confucianism, calligraphy, poetry, and writing, and even the way of being an official in the world...... A hardcore character like Yu Shinan is a living library in itself!

"Well, well, young people are diligent and motivated. Your Majesty has such a person by his side, the old man is really happy, hehe! Yu Shinan stroked his beard and smiled, and walked away on crutches.

In the evening, Li Shimin finally came back, and Qin Mubai could also hand over his work and go back to rest.

When the two little princes received their father, they were still happy and cheering. The difference is that they don't need Li Shimin to dig out some words to coax them to talk and make them happy. On the contrary, Li Zhi and Li Mingda, you and I rushed to tell Li Shimin the story of "Pleasant Goat and Gray Taro".

Li Shimin laughed heartily when he heard it, hugged the two children tightly, and was so happy that he was about to lose his temper.

"Good boy, it's been a long, long time since I've seen you so happy and lively, haha!" Li Shimin laughed, and later said to Qin Mubai, "Mubai, it's really hard for you." It seems that they get along well with you and like you very much. I am very relieved. ”

"Your Majesty, these are all things that Weichen should do." Qin Mubai sighed secretly: It seems that on the first day of work, I did a pretty good job......
