Chapter 697: Do You Believe It Yourself?
In a classroom in the second grade of the school, Tian Chip, who is the head of the mountain, is holding a textbook and is personally teaching the students, Tian Chip is already proficient in arithmetic, although his attainments in arithmetic are not as good as Li Xiu and Li Chunfeng, but he is also the top arithmetic master in Datang, and the school has just been built, and the teaching manpower is also very tight, so Tian Chip also personally took on the mathematics of two classes.

The students in the classroom also listened very carefully, and among these students, Li Ke sat in a position near the window, also holding a note on a piece of paper, although he was more basic than the children in the school, but the content taught in the school was completely in accordance with the textbooks given by Li Xiu, and the things taught were very novel, such as mathematics completely using Arabic numerals and various operation symbols, Li Ke wanted to master these in a short time, and it also took a lot of energy.
"Sure enough, it is extraordinary, no wonder people used to say that among the many princes, the King of Shu is the most similar to His Majesty!" Pei Lin stood outside the window at this time and looked at Li Ke in the classroom, and said with a rare smile on his face.
"Pei Gong, you came here in such a hurry, didn't you really come to see Li Ke, and you haven't answered my question before?" Li Xiu said helplessly at this time, now many people laugh at Li Ke for not being in shape, but Li Yuan praised Li Ke instead, which made Li Xiu feel very curious.
"Hehe, not only did the Emperor praise the King of Shu, but even I felt that the King of Shu's move was simply wonderful!" I saw Pei Lin laugh again at this time, and when he said this, he suddenly paused, and then turned his head to look at Li Xiu and said, "Don Ma, before I answer you, can you tell me honestly, why do you think the King of Shu came to study in your academy?" ”
"This ......" Li Xiu showed a hesitant expression when he heard Pei Lian's words, because he was really embarrassed to say some things, not to mention that Li Ke was just a child in his eyes, and it was really a bit dirty to guess a child's thoughts with some dark psychology.
"Haha~, you're embarrassed to say it, then I'll tell you for you, among the princes, in addition to the two princes born by the eldest grandson, the king of Shu is the most favored, although the performance of the prince is also very good, but His Majesty is in the prime of life, and no one dares to say that there are no variables in the future, in other words, these princes actually have the possibility of inheriting the throne in the future, and the possibility of the king of Shu inheriting the throne is greater than that of ordinary princes."
Pei Lin saw that Li Xiu was unwilling to speak, and immediately laughed and said for him, and then paused and said again: "Don't look at the King of Shu's age, but he must also understand the above truths, but his mother is the princess of the former Sui, and the Chinese Wu minister of the court has no good feelings for the former Sui, so he has no strong support in the court, so for him, the best way is to win over some important ministers in the court, and among the heavy ministers, you and Changsun Wuji have the most influence, but Changsun Wuji is the prince's own uncle, Definitely won't have any good skin for the King of Shu, in comparison, you are much more suitable for the horse! ”
"You can't say that, if the King of Shu really wants to win me over, the best way is to be my student, in fact, as early as before, Concubine Yang mentioned this matter to the princess, and I didn't object at that time, but the King of Shu didn't do this, but just entered the academy as an ordinary student, so it can be seen that he may not be as complicated as you just thought." Li Xiu thought for a moment and replied.
"I'm afraid I'm wrong again, you should know how much impact the King of Shu will have on him if he can really win you over, right?" Pei Lin smiled slightly again at this time.
"Yes!" Li Xiu nodded when he heard this, if Li Ke can really win himself over, then for Li Ke, he will have a strong support in the court, and he can compete with Li Chengqian or Li Tai for the throne, and retreat to protect himself, even if the battle for the throne fails, at least Li Xiu can save Li Ke's life, after all, Li Xiu saved the lives of Li Chengdao and Li Yuanji from Li Shimin, let alone Li Ke.
"It's good that the horse knows, for Li Ke, the horse is a life talisman for him, after all, with his identity, even if he has no intention of the throne, he will inevitably be involved in the throne in the future, and as long as the horse is willing, he can naturally save his life, if I am the king of Shu, I am afraid I will spare no effort to win over the horse!"
Pei Lin paused when he said this, and then continued: "But you have always been reluctant to participate in the battle in the court, this is also well known, if the king of Shu unscrupulously woos you, maybe it will also cause your disgust, so he did not directly use such an obvious means as apprenticeship to win over the horse, but chose to go to the school, so as to win the favor of the horse, and also laid the foundation for future contact with the horse, and considering this, he is only a twelve-year-old child, Do you think such a child is worthy of the emperor's praise? ”
"Pei Gong, you also said that the other party is just a child, how could you think of such a complicated thing?" Li Xiu was a little unhappy when he heard this, he personally liked the simplicity of children, and he didn't want to consider children too complicated, so he was also a little repulsed by Pei Lian's words.
"Haha~, what's wrong with the child, twelve years old is not young, there is a grandson who was already a father at the age of twelve, and gave birth to a great-grandson, and you dare to say that the purpose of the King of Shu approaching you is really just to learn from you?" Pei Lin laughed when he heard this, he asked rhetorically, he could understand Li Xiu's thoughts, this was determined by Li Xiu's character, but he would never agree.
"This ......" Pei Lian's words also made Li Xiu speechless, and after a while, he said weakly, "Okay, I admit that the purpose of the King of Shu approaching me is not so simple, but there must be someone behind this who is pointing him out, such as his mother Concubine Yang, and he didn't choose the most direct way to worship me as a teacher in the end, maybe it was because he didn't want to involve me in the battle for the throne, but in order to explain to his mother, he decided to enter the school." ”
"Hehe, don't you feel a little weak in these explanations, and do you really believe it yourself?" Pei Lin sneered when he heard this, and asked again, the biggest difference between him and Li Xiu is that he likes to speculate on other people's thoughts from the worst angle, while Li Xiu is the opposite, these two ways of thinking don't matter whether they are good or bad, it's just that the two of them think about things from different angles and have different attitudes towards life.
