Chapter 308: Li Shimin handed over the right to the army

"Why is His Royal Highness King Qin here?" When Li Xiu saw Li Shimin standing in the courtyard, he couldn't help but be surprised, and not far away, Li Chengdao and Li Chengqian were playing games with Qi Niang and others. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"Hehe, if you have nothing to do, I'll send Cheng Qian to your class, how about it, it won't disturb you, right?" To Li Xiu's surprise, Li Shimin smiled very calmly, and for some reason, Li Xiu always felt that the current Li Shimin seemed to be a little different.

"Didn't I hear that the Turks were going south, how could Your Highness have nothing to do?" Li Xiu looked at the child playing next to him, and then asked, he didn't want to ask about it in front of Li Shimin, but he was really curious why Li Shimin came here at this time, so he couldn't help but speak.

Hearing Li Xiu's question, I saw that Li Shimin suddenly breathed a sigh at this time, and then said with a relaxed face: "This matter has nothing to do with me, yesterday afternoon, my father and emperor have appointed the fourth brother to lead the army, and I have also handed over the military power, but in my estimation, the Turks are just making a show, such a cold weather, the road may be closed by heavy snow at any time, they dare not go south at will!" ”

"You...... Did you really surrender your military power? Li Xiu couldn't help but ask in surprise when he heard this, after listening to Ma Ye talk about this matter yesterday, he always felt in his heart that Li Shimin would definitely resist desperately, at least he would never hand over power easily, but he didn't expect that it was only one night, and Li Shimin would hand over the military power so easily.

"What if I don't pay it, can I really disobey my father's order?" At this time, I saw Li Shimin show a faint smile and said, but there seemed to be infinite bitterness behind this smile.

"This ......" Li Xiu was also a little speechless when he heard this, indeed, in the face of Li Yuan and Li Jiancheng's joint suppression, even the Turks from the outside world are cooperating with Li Yuan in acting, even if Li Shimin is capable, I am afraid he will not be able to stop it, if it were Li Xiu, I am afraid he would have surrendered and admitted defeat a long time ago, but although this is the case, but the other party is Li Shimin after all, in Li Xiu's opinion, he should not admit defeat so easily?

"Sir, shall we start class now?" At this moment, I suddenly saw Li Chengdao next to him shouting loudly, among several children, he was the most active in learning, and sometimes Li Xiu forgot to leave his homework, he would take the initiative to remind him, so Qi Niang and Li Chengqian scolded him for being positive.

"Oh, let's go to class now!" Li Xiu finally came to his senses at this time, and then nodded to Li Shimin, preparing to take a few children to the living room for class, but at this moment, Li Shimin suddenly said, "Brother Li, I wonder if I can listen to your lecture?" ”

"Huh? King Qin, do you really have nothing to do? Li Xiu was really a little surprised at this time, even if he handed over the military power, Li Shimin would not be bored to listen to his lectures to a few children, right?

"What I do now is wrong, maybe I will fall into the hands of others in the future, it is better to do nothing, and I heard Chengqian say what you said, some of which I am also very interested in, I didn't have time before, but now I have the opportunity to learn seriously!" Li Shimin smiled again, and the smile on his face was also very peaceful, as if he really thought so.

"This ...... Of course there is no problem! Li Xiu hesitated and nodded, Li Shimin is the parent of his own student, and it seems normal for parents to audit the class, so he has no reason to refuse at all.

The weather is very cold, Li Xiu can only take classes in the living room, there are coal stoves in the four corners, there are air ducts leading to the outside, whenever winter comes, the honeycomb coal is accounted for inside, and the room becomes very warm, the five students are divided into three groups, Li Xiu first gives a lecture to Hate, she has now begun to learn the more complex four operations, and she can read and write smoothly, which is considered to be a rapid progress.

After that, Xiaoya and Li Chengqian, they didn't learn much better than Hya'er, mainly because of some training in mathematics, but even so, Li Shimin next to him was still very surprised, because he found that some problems even he had to struggle to calculate.

In the end, Li Xiucai gave a lecture to Qi Niang and Li Chengdao, the courses they learned were the closest and the most difficult, and they were no longer limited to basic arithmetic, but involved chemistry, physics and other subjects, for example, Li Xiu was talking about the calculation of gravity today, and he had already talked about the section of gravitation, so Li Chengdao and Qi Niang also listened very carefully, but Li Shimin next to him was confused, and he couldn't understand what he was talking about?

After finishing the lesson, it was almost noon, Li Xiu announced that he would end the class, let a few children go outside for a while, and wait for next Yuechan to send lunch, taking advantage of this opportunity, Li Shimin finally asked: "Brother Li, what did you talk about in the last section just now, why can't I understand it at all?" ”

"This ......" Li Xiu didn't know how to explain it when he heard this, because there was no previous foundation, it was strange that Li Shimin could understand it, so in the end he had to say helplessly, "His Royal Highness King Qin, what I told Qi Niang just now involves a lot of knowledge in other aspects, and if you want to understand it, you must have a previous foundation, so it's normal that you can't understand!" ”

"Then can you please tell me about the previous knowledge, I believe that with my comprehension ability, I should be able to learn it quickly!" At this time, Li Shimin showed a look of strength that did not stop until the goal was reached, he had always been very conceited, and he had never encountered such a situation, especially since even two children could understand it, but he, an adult, could not understand it.

"This ...... All right. Li Xiu had no choice but to briefly talk about the knowledge related to gravity, but Li Shimin could understand it at first, but then he began to often interrupt Li Xiu to ask questions, and at the end of the conversation, he had completely given up asking questions, because there were some things that he really couldn't understand, especially the calculations in it, he didn't understand where those physical constants came from?

Seeing Li Shimin's bewildered expression, Li Xiu couldn't help but feel some sympathy, yesterday he was just hit once by his father and brother politically, and now he was hit again by himself in terms of IQ, especially Li Chengdao is still Li Jiancheng's son, people can learn him but can't, which is estimated to make him even more unacceptable.

"It's complicated, but do these really work?" Li Shimin sat there stunned for a long time, and finally suddenly came to his senses and asked.

"This is all theoretical knowledge, which may not seem to be of much use on the surface, but if you can apply it to practical problems, you will find that they are useful!" Li Xiu said with a smile.

"Can you give me an example, for example, the calculation of gravity that I just talked about, why do I think it doesn't seem to be useful?" Li Shimin still asked a little unwillingly, he is very hurt now, and even his self-confidence has been hit, so he must understand this matter.

"The calculation of gravity is actually very useful, for example, in terms of the military that His Highness is best at, when the army is attacking the city, it generally uses a stone thrower, and the stone thrower wants to throw the stone out to hit the target, and it will cross a parabola in the air, and the trajectory of this parabola is most affected by gravity, if we can calculate it in advance, we can hit the target more accurately, this King of Qin should be understandable, right?" Li Xiu said with a smile again.

"A stone thrower? Parabola? After listening to this, Li Shimin also carefully pondered the truth in Li Xiu's words, and finally couldn't help but nod and said, "I see, not only the stone thrower, but also the giant bed crossbow also has this problem, but it is less affected by gravity, and it can only be judged by experienced soldiers in the past, but now listen to you say this, if you calculate in advance, the average soldier can also operate the bed crossbow, but it is a pity that there are too few literate soldiers in the army, let alone this complex calculation." ”

"That's right, His Royal Highness King Qin's last words are indeed to the point, the literacy rate of our Datang is too low, and there is not a single literate one out of ten, so I think if the imperial court is stabilized, and after solving the threat of food and clothing and external threats, the first priority is to promote education, the so-called education is a century-old plan, although it is not a temporary effect, but after one or two generations, the effect of education will be truly revealed!" Li Xiu spoke again at this time.

For Li Xiu's words, Li Shimin also nodded in agreement, he only thought that education was to cultivate readers, and then select a group of officials from the scholars to manage the people of the world, but Li Xiu's words made him wake up, education is not only for traditional readers, but to allow ordinary people to read and write, and when they master a certain amount of knowledge, maybe they will burst out with different power?

But when thinking of the above, Li Shimin suddenly shook his head with a wry smile, he is about to lose his own life now, where can he still think about these national events?

At noon, Li Shimin still didn't leave, in desperation, Li Xiu had to accompany him for a meal, and then in the afternoon Li Shimin continued to listen to the class, he couldn't understand the class of Qi Niang and Li Chengdao, so he went to Li Chengqian and Xiaoya's class, although their class was relatively simple, but when Li Shimin studied it seriously, he found many things that he hadn't noticed before.

finally waited until it was getting late, Li Shimin left with Li Chengqian, and Li Chengdao wanted to leave together, but was stopped by the head of the guard he brought, and after Li Shimin's father and son left, the head of the guard left with Li Chengdao, which made Li Chengdao can't help but turn around and show a wry smile to Li Xiu, he naturally understands the reason, but he can't even believe his own uncle, it's really sad to think about it.

Li Xiu thought that Li Shimin was only in a bad mood, so he occasionally came to him, but what he never expected was that in the next few days, Li Shimin came almost every day, every time in the name of sending Li Chengqian to school, even if Li Chengdao did not come, their father and son were still rain or shine, and every time Li Xiu gave a lecture, Li Shimin sat on the side and listened, even harder than several children.

On this day, Li Xiu just sent Li Shimin and his son away, and just returned to the living room to sit down and prepare to drink tea to moisten his throat, but he saw Ma Ye break in angrily at this time and said loudly: "There is something wrong with your kid, now King Qin has become a rat crossing the street, and others dare not get too close to him, you even let him come to your house every day?" ”

"Uncle Ma, you dissipate your anger first, I also know that King Qin is not popular now, but he comes every day in the name of sending his son to study, I can't kick him out, right?" Li Xiu also said helplessly at this time, and then he was a little curious, and asked again at the moment, "By the way, Uncle Ma, how is the court now, King Qin really gave up his military power?" ”

I saw Ma Ye sit on the chair next to Li Xiu, drank a few sips of tea with a "coo-dong-goo-dong", and then showed a disgusted expression, even now he still doesn't like to fry tea, and then he said: "King Qin doesn't know what to think this time, he handed over the military power so easily, and now the king of Qi has mobilized most of the generals of Tiance Mansion, saying that he is going north to resist the Turks, but I estimate that after these people go to the northern Xinjiang, they will be transferred to various places for various reasons, and now there are not many people around King Qin." ”

When he said this, he saw Ma Ye pause for a moment, and then continued: "As for the reaction of the court, everyone was very shocked at first, and even the prince couldn't believe it, but it wasn't until King Qi transferred away a large number of generals from Tiance Mansion that the people in the court believed that King Qin really gave up his military power, and everyone's eyes were on King Qin these days, and as a result, he ran to you every day, and you idiot didn't even know to drive him out, what if the prince wants to settle your account in the future?" ”

When Ma Ye said the end, he couldn't help glaring at Li Xiu again, of course, he said that these were all for Li Xiu's good.

"The crown prince is not a stingy person, if he doesn't even have this bit of energy, how will he be the emperor in the future?" Li Xiu smiled indifferently.

"You're not a prince, how do you know he's not stingy? And there is no personal feeling to talk about in the battle for the throne at all, everything is based on interests first, if he really wants to liquidate King Qin in the future, you will definitely be unlucky, so if you want me to say, you just drive Li Shimin's son out now, so that Li Shimin has no reason to come to you! Ma Ye glared again when he heard Li Xiu's words, he always liked to think about the worst when he thought about things, and he always put the interests of the people around him first, as for the life and death of others, he would not think about it.

"Thank you Uncle Ma for your kindness, but I have my own measure on this matter!" Li Xiu also knew that Ma Ye was for his good, but he would never be able to do this kind of thing, so he could only open his mouth and refuse, but when he said this, he suddenly thought of a person, and suddenly raised his head and said, "Uncle Ma, ask you something, do you know how the eldest grandson Wuji reacted to King Qin's surrender of military power?"
