Yang Jun and Chu Yi walked side by side, and the two talked and laughed. Li Xiang followed behind them, the more he looked at it, the more unhappy he became, and he held back a resentment in his heart.

Chu Yi was famous, and those princes were standing in the courtyard one by one, waiting for him to arrive.

There are three people standing in the middle, the eldest prince Li Jingzhen, the third prince Li Jingtai, the fifth prince Li Jingkuan, and the others are all younger princes and princesses.

His Royal Highness Li Jingzhen, the king of Chu, is slightly chubby, has a simple face, and always has a smile on his face, giving people the first impression that he is loyal and honest. In addition, he is more easy-going in dealing with people, so his brother is the most popular among these brothers and sisters.

His Royal Highness Li Jingtai, the prime minister of the Third Highness, was slightly thin, and even looked a little sick and unrefreshed. But he is indeed a master of the seven grades of martial arts, who once followed the army to Xihu, with both wisdom and bravery, outstanding military achievements, and good popularity in the army.

Li Jingkuan, the king of Shu of the Fifth Highness, has a dignified appearance, loves poetry and songs, does not like government affairs, and is known as "Lantingjun" in Kyoto.

According to the rules of the Southern Tang Dynasty, all the princes lived in the palace when they were minors, and after performing the weak crown ceremony, they would be crowned kings, and they usually moved to live in the "Ten Princes' Mansion" in the northeast corner of Kyoto. However, once the prince is determined and the crown prince moves into the East Palace, the other kings will be "out of the cabinet" and will be sent to a designated fief to set up a royal official office, but not to grant local official positions.

Therefore, when Li Jingyou, the king of Yue, was sent to the fiefdom of Luochuan in Yunzhou, many people in the court could not understand it. But for Li Jingzhen and Li Jingtai, Li Jingyou's "leaving the cabinet" in advance has a hidden mystery and has to prepare in advance.

But what puzzled them was that Li Jingyou went to Luochuan, and instead of befriending Chu Yi, the son of Chu Jianfeng, he became an enemy of life and death.

Perhaps, Li Jingyou didn't expect that Chu Yi's growth speed can only be described by the word 'demon'. His current identity, no matter which one he comes up with, is enough to shock the world.

As the saying goes, the enemy of the enemy is the friend. On the road to succession, many friends have many roads.

Yang Jun saw that the princes were lined up, stood there, and said with a smile: "Let your highnesses wait here, except for Your Majesty, it will belong to you." ”

Chu Yi looked at the princes and little princesses, his gaze swept over the faces of Li Jingzhen and Li Jingtai, and finally fell on Li Jingkuan's face.

Li Jingkuan smiled at him, and Chu Yi smiled. This scene happened to be seen by Li Jingzhen, and a strange look flashed in her eyes.

The inside story of the green, fat, red and thin fire, although Li Jingzhen knows a little, many of the details are unknown. But from Li Jingkuan's eyes when he saw Chu Yi, he could be sure that his fifth brother was familiar with Chu Yi.

It's just that when did Li Jingkuan get acquainted with Chu Yi? Li Jingzhen couldn't figure it out. Because, it is impossible for such a big thing to escape his ears and eyes!

The current Chu Yi is no longer an ordinary person. He worships the general of Tianlang and is the head of the Tianji Battalion. The existence of this identity makes them, the princes, dare not contact him easily, for fear of being left behind.

Just when he was thinking about the chance encounter, his father Li Shixun gave them a chance to get in touch. But this sudden opportunity did not make him feel happy, but worried.

As the eldest son, according to convention, he is the only one who is the prince. But to this day, his father Li Shixun has not revealed any news about the prince, and he has not even thought about it. Although the ministers of the court proposed the matter of establishing a prince, he was shirked by him for various reasons.

So much so that Li Jingyou "left the cabinet" in advance, which was interpreted by some people as a silent beating on them, the princes, warning them to keep to themselves and not to act rashly.

Since then, no one in the DPRK has mentioned the matter of establishing a prince.

Li Jingzhen's mind was spinning rapidly, filtering all the details she could think of in her heart, but the smile on her face was still the same, and she looked harmless to humans and animals.

Yang Jun walked up to Li Jingzhen and the others, and arched his hand and said, "Your Highnesses and princesses, this is Chu Yi, the dean of Yanling Academy, and he will teach you today's lesson." ”

Chu Yi arched his hand and said with a smile: "I have seen your highnesses and princesses. ”

As he spoke, his gaze swept over the three princesses. But these three princesses are young, the oldest is only about twelve years old, and the youngest is only seven or eight years old, it should not be the Princess Changle who brought him into the palace that day.

When Li Jingzhen noticed this scene, she knew that he was looking for Princess Changle, so she smiled and said, "Dean Xiao Chu, the seventh sister usually doesn't come to Siwen Academy. ”

Seventh sister? Chu Yileng paused.

Li Jingtai added: "It is the princess Changle who is the most beloved by my father." ”

Chu Yi was secretly surprised, but he didn't expect that he would just look at it like that, and he would be seen by this highness.

"The last time I was able to enter the Lin De Palace, thanks to the help of the princess. I wanted to take this opportunity to thank the princess. Chu Yi said without hurrying or slowing.

"Dean Xiao Chu doesn't know. The seventh sister has always been quiet and rarely sees people. If Dean Xiao Chu doesn't mind, I'll send someone to pass on a message to see if the seventh sister is willing to meet. How?" Li Jingzhen hurriedly came up to find a chance to get acquainted with Chu Yi.

Li Jingtai smiled and stopped talking.

Yang Jun looked at the time and urged: "Everyone, it's not too early, please come into the hall and sit down." ”

Chu Yi politely declined: "The princess is quiet, so she won't bother." Thank you, Your Highness, for your kindness!"

Li Jingzhen smiled and said, "Dean Xiao Chu doesn't have to be polite. ”

Everyone walked into the school hall and sat down one after another.

If you are an ordinary person, you will inevitably feel nervous and restrained when teaching these princes and princesses, and you will inevitably be bound and unable to let go. But for Chu Yi, going to class is just chattering, chattering, and talking nonsense.

Yang Jun stood at the door, with a faint smile on his face, looking at Chu Yi on the podium, with infinite emotion.

Chu Yi stood on the podium, his gaze sweeping over everyone's faces. Before he came, he had already thought about the content of today's course, which was to prepare two or three open-ended topics, which had no standard answers, but they could inspire people, and he could be regarded as worthy of the identity of the dean of the college.

Chu Yi cleared his throat and was about to speak, when he saw a twelve or thirteen-year-old prince standing up, it was the eleventh prince Li Jingyao.

Li Jingyao asked loudly: "Dean Xiao Chu, have you ever been famous?" Is it the first class to give 'Jinshi and the first', or the second class to give 'Jinshi origin', or the third class to give 'Tongjinshi origin'?"

Chu Yi saw that this kid was not good, and he just wanted to give him a disadvantage.

"The top three are too far to reach. Chu Yi said with a smile.

Li Jingyao asked again: "If it's not the top three, at least it's a lifter." ”

Chu Yi smiled faintly and said, "It has nothing to do with me!"

"Dean Xiao Chu, you are neither from a top three background, nor are you a person, but you are just a vain name, how can you teach us?" Li Jingxuan was aggressive.

Chu Yi was still thinking about how to start, leading to the topic he had prepared, and it happened that this kid created a very good opportunity for him.

"Then according to what you say, I'm not from a top three background, and I'm not a lifter, so I'm not qualified to teach you?" Chu Yi asked with a smile.

"Of course!"

"Since Your Highness said so, then I will also say two words. Seriously, if it weren't for your old father repeatedly inviting me to teach you, I wouldn't have bothered to talk nonsense with you. With your level of knowledge, if you want to become my student, you don't have enough qualifications!" Chu Yi had no scruples to put down his cruel words.

Everyone saw that he called his father 'old father', so disrespectful, which made them a little angry, especially those young princes, who had a kind of momentum of rolling up their sleeves and rushing up to fight.

And the three people sitting in the front, Li Jingzhen smiled, Li Jingtai didn't say a word, and Li Jingkuan looked indifferent.

"What, you're still not convinced? Not convinced, you go to Xu Bo to fight alone!" Chu Yi was imposing.

Hearing the word Xu Bo, Li Jingyao's face was a little unbearable. Xu Bo's performance really amazed them, if they talk about real talent and real learning, they don't know how many big characters they can write with this bit of ink.

"Then dare to ask Dean Xiao Chu, you said that I am not qualified, then you draw the Dao, how about we compete?" Li Jingxuan's brain also turned quickly.

Chu Yi really couldn't ask for it, "Then you listen, the question is very simple, how can you completely get rid of the weeds in the wilderness?"

Li Jingyao fell. I didn't expect this question to be so simple, isn't it when he is an idiot?

Chu Yi added: "If you can't answer, it doesn't matter, you can ask someone else to help you answer it together." ”

Li Jingyao said slightly angrily: "It's not simple, use a shovel to shovel all the weeds." Chu Yi smiled and said nothing, obviously the answer was wrong.

"Then burn the grass with a fire. When Chu Yi heard this, he still smiled and didn't answer.

"You can't shovel it or burn it, you can't eradicate it. It is said that to cut the grass to remove the roots, the roots of the grass must be dug out. A handsome young man said calmly.

This young man is none other than His Royal Highness Li Jingyan.

Li Jingyan is usually quiet and quiet, and he is not very gregarious among his brothers, but he can only talk to Li Jingtai.

Li Jingzhen's brows furrowed slightly, Li Jingkuan was incredulous, only a smile appeared on the corner of Li Jingtai's mouth.

Chu Yi looked at this young man carefully, and it was really surprising that he was able to say the four words 'cutting grass and eradicating roots' so calmly.

"The so-called wilderness is my territory, and the so-called weeds are the pain of my people. Shoveling, burning, and beheading the capital will only make the people scarred and miserable, not to mention the worse, and may also trigger a riot of displaced people and shake the foundation of the Southern Tang Dynasty. Outside the school, a woman's voice came from Princess Changle.

Chu Yi was shocked in his heart, he didn't expect that someone else could extend this topic to national governance, which was greatly unexpected.

Li Jingzhen and Li Jingtai turned their heads to look out the door, with a look of surprise in their eyes. Their seventh sister has never been here, why did they come over today and take the initiative to answer this question?

It shouldn't be!

Hearing Princess Changle's answer, Li Jingzhen and Li Jingtai suddenly realized, and immediately understood the meaning of inviting Dean Xiao Chu to come over to class. Because, this question is very likely to be said by his father, the emperor, through Chu Yi's mouth. Thinking of this, the two of them were sitting on pins and needles, full of remorse.

However, Li Jingkuan was unmoved, and looked at Chu Yi calmly.

"Then according to the princess's opinion, what should be done?" Chu Yi asked curiously.

"Actually, it's very simple, measure the land, divide it into households, plant crops, and naturally go out to the wild grass in the wilderness, and you can have a good harvest in the next year. Isn't it good for the country and the people!" Princess Changle said without hurrying or slowing.

After hearing this, Yang Jun couldn't help but praise: "The princess's words are wonderful!"

Chu Yi smiled and said, "Since the princess has already given the answer, then I won't say anything more." I just want to add that the best way to get rid of the weeds in my heart is not to fight it with brute force, but to sow seeds in my heart and wait patiently, so that the spring flowers will bloom, and the summer will mature and the autumn will be harvested. ”
