Chapter 257: Trivia

In the end, Zhang Huaiding embarked on the road back to Liangzhou with a relatively satisfactory attitude.

Since the place actually controlled by the imperial court and Liangzhou are separated by Weizhou and Lanzhou, they can only detour from the north, and finally agree to trade in Yuanzhou, which is the envoy of Jingyuan Jiedu.

Of course, the trading of weapons and war horses was only one of the purposes of Zhang Huaiding's trip, and secondly, he had the support of Li Ye. That is, Li Ye can support him to be the envoy of the Shanggui Righteous Army, and it is not until this time that Li Ye knows the other party's ambitions.

He naturally chose to agree to this, but he didn't know that Zhang Huaiding came privately.

However, this did not have much impact on Li Ye, he only needed war horses, and the strong Guiyi army could also relieve the border pressure of the imperial court, so that the Tubo and Uighurs did not have the energy to invade the Tang Dynasty.

Who is the envoy of this festival does not have much impact on the current Li Ye, compared to Zhang Huaishen, who he doesn't understand, Zhang Huaiding, who he knows a little, is also an acceptable candidate.

After all, Zhang Huaiding came on behalf of the Guiyi Army, so his parting ceremony for leaving for Liangzhou was also relatively grand.

In this regard, Li Ye did not object. Since the Guiyi Army openly admits that it belongs to the Tang Dynasty, for the sake of the Hexi strategy in the future, it is not impossible to give the Guiyi Army a certain degree of comfort.

During Zhang Huaiding's return, Wang Jian rushed to Chang'an to accept the appointment of the imperial court.

Although the Songzhou Governor's Mansion is located in a remote area and only governs two states, it is a Metropolitan Governor's Mansion after all.

For this appointment, Wang Jian was naturally overjoyed, and King Shou was able to hand over this important task to him, which shows that he values him and trusts him.

On this day, Li Ye was sweating profusely in the school field of the palace, and after taking a comfortable bath, he planned to go to the study to read a book.

Although these ancient texts are similar to classical Chinese, Li Ye can still understand them, but they are just a little boring.

But as he came to power, it was something that had to be experienced.

So every night, Li Ye has to take an hour to come out and read some books, not only to read some famous books, but also some wild history miscellaneous books are also within the scope of his reading. On the other hand, those famous books, it is easy to look stupid after reading too much.

It's not that he doesn't like Confucianism, but he doesn't like Confucianism to flourish. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's exclusive respect for Confucianism was indeed conducive to rule, but it also stifled the development of other doctrines, which was as good as a hundred flowers blooming during the Warring States Period.

Fortunately, at this time, Confucianism had not yet reached the heyday of the Song, Ming and Qing dynasties, and the open system of the Tang Dynasty also made it impossible for Confucianism to stand out, but if it was not guided, it would still develop according to the trajectory of history.

Just like Guozijian is divided into six schools, namely Guozixue, Taixue, Four Studies, Law, Calligraphy, and Arithmetic, among which Law is the main study of the legal system, and Arithmetic is the study of later generations.

However, the status of the six schools is high and low, the doctors (i.e., teachers) of Guozixue and Taixue are the five rank officials, while the doctors of arithmetic are from the ninth grade.

The status is worlds apart, so that fewer and fewer people learn arithmetic, and fewer and fewer people teach.

At present, Li Ye has not yet started the reform of Guozijian, but he still issued a policy, that is, to set the doctors of the six schools as the five grades. First of all, we will raise the status of arithmetic and law, and when the time is ripe, we will carry out deeper reforms.

However, if you want to reform, you must first understand the current situation of the six schools, for example, Li Ye is now reading the textbooks of arithmetic.

After taking a general look at the entire textbook, I found that the level of arithmetic in this era is not high, but this is also normal, after all, arithmetic is raised by the mother, and there is no difference between the Ming arithmetic subject in the imperial examination and the abolition, so how high can the development of arithmetic be?

To put it bluntly, arithmetic from ancient times to the present day mainly relies on those who are interested in research, although the government is also using arithmetic daily, but it rarely takes the initiative to promote it.

Although Li Ye was not very good at mathematics in his previous life, he knew a little about linear algebra and calculus, but he still remembered the simpler ones, so he wrote out some of his ideas, and then asked the doctors of arithmetic to synthesize them and compile them into new textbooks.

This person, as long as he is very committed to doing something, will find that time flies quickly. When Li Ye finished writing what he wanted to write, it was already time, and he immediately called Zhang Wei.

"Who should I go to tonight?" Li Ye asked.

"Back to Your Highness, according to the day, you should go to Sun Ruren." Zhang Wei hurriedly replied.

Sun Ruren is Sun Mei, and Li Ye's palace sleeping system is in accordance with the process of the palace. On the first fifteenth day of the month, the moon is gradually full; On the last fifteenth day of the month, the moon wanes. Therefore, from the first to the fifteenth day of the new year, it is the turn of the concubines with low status to the concubines with high status; From the sixteenth to the end of the month, it will be the turn of those with high status to those with low status.

Because Li Ye actually doesn't have many women, there are less than ten with official status. As for those who have no official status and have had a relationship with Li Ye, they are mainly the personal maids of several women. Such a woman is not canonized unless she is pregnant.

Today is thirteen, and according to the arrangement, it is Sun Mei.

"Mei'er?" Thinking that it was Sun Mei, Li Ye remembered that the other party was not in the palace and went home to save his relatives.

Zhang Wei, as a eunuch who served by Li Ye's side, naturally knew this, so he suggested, "Your Highness, do you want to go to the other princesses?" ”

Li Ye looked at the sky and hesitated for a while, "Forget it, it's getting late, so I won't bother them." ”

"Yes, Your Highness."

Under the service of the maid, Li Ye was about to go to the bed to rest after his clothes, and suddenly noticed movement next to the bed.

"Who?"

Li Ye, who was originally full of sleep, suddenly became energetic, but he did not call the soldiers outside in, but pulled out his saber from the shelf next to him, walked over cautiously, and shouted in a low voice.

ゑ新ダ~(8)~1~Chinese 碲ωωω.Ο‡~8.~1zΡ‰.cΓ²ΠΌ

"Come out, if you don't come out, you're welcome."

Perhaps Li Ye's intimidation worked, and after a while, a thin figure walked out from behind the bed and knelt on the ground.

"Your Highness forgives your sins."

"Look up." Li Ye held his sword, and the tip of the sword was against the other party's chin and said in a deep voice.

When he saw that it was a maid, Li Ye was a little surprised, how could a maid run into his room, but no one found out?

As the kneeling maid trembled and raised her head, a young and pitiful face appeared in front of Li Ye, and when he saw the owner of this face, Li Ye couldn't help but feel familiar.

"Are you Wang Ci? How are you in the king's room? ”

He naturally recognized this Wang Ci, because the other party's father was Wang Jian.

It was sent to the palace by Wang Jian two years ago, and its purpose is self-evident. I heard that she is still Wang Jian's beloved daughter, and I don't know how the other party is willing to send it to the palace.

Wang Ci was only 12 years old at the time, but he was a beautiful embryo. Because she was too young, Li Ye handed her over to Xiaoyue, and over time, Li Ye almost forgot that there was still this person, but fortunately, Wang Jian came over a few days ago to thank him, and he remembered.

"Your Highness, the slave maid is here to thank Your Highness for your great kindness." Wang Ci said in a low voice.

"Great grace? What great favor has this king done to you? Li Ye suddenly thought of something, "If it's because of your father, then it's not necessary, that's what he deserves." You haven't told me why you're here. ”

"Slave. Slaves... Perhaps staring at it by Li Ye, Wang Ci struggled for a while and said truthfully, "The slave maid heard that His Highness has no one to sleep tonight, so I came to serve His Highness to rest." ”

"Rest in costumes? Hiding behind a bed? Li Ye put away the sword, and guessed the little girl's mind in his heart, "You go out, this king can act as if he didn't see you tonight." ”

Perhaps knowing that it was impossible for the other party to stab him, Li Ye inserted the matching sword back into the scabbard, and at this time, the sound of something falling to the ground came.

"Your Highness." A somewhat trembling voice came from behind him, Li Ye turned back to look, suddenly very angry, and couldn't help shouting, "What are you doing here?" ”

Li Ye's cry alarmed Zhang Wei and the guards outside the door, and soon Zhang Wei's sharp male duck voice sounded, "Your Highness, what's going on?" ”

"It's okay, don't come in without the king's order." With the scene in front of him, could Li Ye let the guards outside in? Apparently impossible.

"Your father forced you to do this?" Looking at the woman in front of him, Li Ye turned his head over, and then asked.

Li Ye didn't believe that this was something that a young girl could think of, and only that Wang Jian could let his daughter be so unscrupulous. This made his impression of Wang Jian a lot worse.

was yelled at by Li Ye like this, Wang Ci, who was already a little flustered, was suddenly frightened and cried quietly.

Li Ye couldn't get used to women crying the most, and this crying made his heart soften suddenly. Picked up the clothes on the ground and put them on the other party, and then walked out wearing a thin piece of clothing.

Seeing Li Ye walking out without wearing his coat, Zhang Wei and the guards were also stunned for a moment, and they also guessed what might have happened inside.

"Your Highness..." As soon as Zhang Wei spoke, he was about to inquire about the situation when he was interrupted by Li Ye raising his hand, "Let someone call Xiaoyue and take the people inside." ”

"Yes, Your Highness." Zhang Wei hurriedly sent the little eunuch beside him to complete Li Ye's explanation, and after about a quarter of an hour, Xiao Yue, who was a little unknown, hurried over.

After Xiao Yue entered the house and saw the situation inside, she knew why Li Ye kept a straight face. Soon, under the gaze of everyone, three maids followed Xiao Yue out, and one of them kept his head down.

The eunuchs and guards in the courtyard all saw that Yuemei had only brought two maids in, but now three came out. Thinking of the voice in it just now, everyone understood a little.

"Xiaoyue, take her back, don't make a noise about this matter, especially the two people around you, if this matter spreads, there is no need for this king to say more about the consequences." Li Ye said coldly.

"Yes, Your Highness." Xiao Yue looked at Wang Ci who was cowering beside her, no matter how good her temper was, her face was a little unsightly, but it was not good to attack in front of so many people.

As soon as Xiao Yue came out of the courtyard with the culprit, Zhang Wei and Link knelt on the ground in a panic, "The slave (lowly duty) is guilty." ”
