Chapter 684: All Nations Come to Congratulate

Li Xiu persuaded Sun Simiao to accept disciples, although it was for the sake of the other party, but at the same time he also had his own plans, although Sun Simiao was proficient in medical skills, but he didn't have so many thoughts, and naturally he didn't notice Li Xiu's thoughts, but asked very curiously: "Is there any way for me to choose disciples at will?" ”

"Haha~, it's a coincidence, some time ago I set up a school, specially let the children of the surrounding tenants come to study, the first batch of hundreds of children to study in the school, if you want to go to the school, you can go to the school to teach a few medical lessons, teach the children some basic health knowledge, by the way, observe these children, and select the right disciples, even if this batch of children is not suitable, there will be new children coming in every year in the future, and you will definitely be satisfied with Sun Daochang!" Li Xiu laughed loudly at this time, and finally said his purpose. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Academy? Is it the one built next to the yamen of the Ministry of Agriculture? "The medicine temple where Sun Simiao lives is not finished from Li Xiu's house, and he usually visits the neighborhood for medical treatment, so naturally he also heard about the school.

"That's right, it's that school, although these children are all from poor families, but the children of poor families can endure hardships, and the children are small, and their character can be cultivated slowly, not to mention that after they go to the school, they also have basic knowledge, and it is more convenient for you to teach Sun Daochang." Li Xiu spoke again at this time.

"I haven't been to see this school yet, I just happen to have nothing to do now, how about the colt take me to see it?" Sun Simiao didn't agree to Li Xiu immediately, but he was very excited to ask Li Xiu to take him to the academy, he was a real healer, and there was not much difference between nobles and commoners in his eyes, so there were no requirements for the origin of the disciples, as long as they could meet his requirements.

"Daochang Sun, aren't you tired?" Li Xiu was a little hesitant when he heard Sun Simiao's words, after all, the other party had just treated Du Ruhui, and he was tired enough, plus he was so old, he was really afraid that Sun Simiao's body would not be able to stand it.

"It's okay, I've already rested after taking a sip of tea, how about we go now?" Sun Simiao was old and strong, and he was going to visit the school when he stood up, and when he saw his appearance, Li Xiu had no choice but to stand up, and then the two of them went out of the Taoist temple together and came to the school by carriage.

At this time, it was already afternoon, and the classrooms of the school were also in class, and from time to time there was the sound of students reading under the leadership of the teacher, and now the children were in the very beginning of the literacy stage, reading and writing were the most important ways to memorize, so the whole school was reading from morning to night.

Sun Simiao seemed to be very interested in the school, and walked around the corridors outside the classrooms, and looked into the classroom through the window, only to see dozens of students sitting in several rows in the classroom, with a white object in his hand, and writing what he wanted to teach on the black wall directly opposite the students, some classrooms taught numbers, and some taught literacy.

"Pony, there are so many students in your school, but isn't there a little less sir, a gentleman has to teach forty or fifty students, how can he take care of each student's learning?" After Sun Simiao finished reading the school, he also raised his own questions at the moment, in fact, as long as anyone who has been to the school, they will have such questions.

Although Sun Simiao is a doctor, in essence, he is still a Taoist, and the inheritance of Taoist priests has always been the traditional master-apprentice transmission, and a Taoist priest will bring a few apprentices at most, so when I see the large-scale teaching method of the school, I still don't understand it.

"Sun Daochang doesn't know, because there are too many students in the school, if you use the teaching methods of general private schools, you need too many gentlemen, and these students come to study in the school, originally not to let them go to the Jinshi examination, mainly so that they can read and break words, of course, if there are particularly excellent students, the school will also focus on training, and it is also his own efforts to be able to take the imperial examination in the future......"

Li Xiu patiently explained the advantages and disadvantages of this large-scale teaching method, and Sun Simiao also nodded again and again after listening to it, and also had a deeper understanding of the teaching mode of the school.

Sun Simiao is barely an official eunuch, his great-grandfather once did the prince of the Northern Zhou Dynasty to wash horses, his grandfather also did a county order, although his father did not come out, but the family is also quite rich, but after he later studied medicine, he also dealt with poor people all the year round, and he knew that the life of poor families was the most understandable, and he also knew that it was too difficult for children from poor families to change their fate, and reading was one of the most convenient shortcuts.

It's just that most of the education is controlled by the family and the aristocracy, and it is difficult for the children of the poor to be educated, but now the school opened by Li Xiu has given the children of the poor family the right to be educated.

"Daoist Sun, how is it, are you interested in teaching a few classes in the academy, and by the way, you can also pick a few disciples from them?" Li Xiu smiled again at this time.

"No problem, the horse built this school is also for the benefit of the poor people, although the poor road is a monk, but also once swore that he hoped to save the people's suffering, but after all, medical skills are small paths, although they can save a person's life, but they can't save the life of a country, at the beginning of the poor road also watched the chaos in the world at the end of the Sui Dynasty, but there was nothing they could do, now the horse built this school seems inconspicuous, but it can change the fate of more people, the poor road not only has to accept disciples here, but also if the children in the school are sick in the future, It is also rescued by the poor road! Sun Simiao immediately clapped his hands and said.

Li Xiu didn't expect that Sun Simiao not only agreed to his request, but also asked Xuetangbai to pick up a school doctor, which made him overjoyed, and he also thanked Sun Simiao at the moment, and then took him to find Tian Chip and introduce Sun Simiao to him, but Tian Chip learned that even the famous Sun Shenyi was going to come to the school to give lectures and accept disciples, which made him extremely excited.

In May, the follow-up impact of the Tang Dynasty's destruction of the Turks finally fully emerged, first of all, the party's fine seal Bu Lai descended to the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin happily named him the history of the assassin, the party has always been a big clan in the northwest, covering an area of about 3,000 miles, but the party is full of internal contradictions, and the various clans attack each other, but they also asked the Tang Dynasty to surrender after hearing that the fine seal Bu Lai was named the history of the thorn.

In just one month, the party's fine Feng's, Fei Ting's, Xiangli's, Pochao's, Yeci's, Pandang's, Miluo's, Tuoba and other big surnames all sent envoys to Datang to ask for surrender, and Datang also divided the party's territory into four states: Wei, Feng, Yan, and Yuan, which made Datang expand its territory thousands of miles at once, and these party nobles were also rewarded by Datang.

There are two important reasons why Li Shimin gives preferential treatment to the party, the first is that the party is entrenched in the northwest, just between the Tang Dynasty and the Western Regions, and the Silk Road also needs to pass through their territory.

The second reason is also very important, that is, to set an example for the grassland departments with the party item, after all, the Tang Dynasty has just destroyed the grassland overlord Turks, although the various tribes on the grassland hate the Turks, but they are also very jealous of the Tang Dynasty's troops, for fear that the Tang Dynasty will destroy them easily, and at this time, the surrender of the party just let the Tang Dynasty set an example, telling the Tang Dynasty that the grassland departments have no hostility towards them, as long as they are willing to submit to the Tang Dynasty, then they can get the reward of the Tang Dynasty like the party item.

With the example of the party, in just a few months, the big tribes of the grassland have also sent envoys to Chang'an to ask for surrender, for these surrendered tribes, Li Shimin has also been rewarded, but compared to the party, Datang did not send troops to these tribes, after all, Datang's troops are limited, it is impossible to completely control the grassland, but like the party, the throat leading to the Western Regions, must still be in the hands of Datang.

At the beginning of July, the envoys of the various ministries of the grassland gathered in Chang'an, Li Shimin also held a banquet in the Taiji Palace, the banquet was held for three days, and the envoys of various ethnic groups also continued to pay tribute to the Tang Dynasty, which can be said to be congratulated by all nations, and the prestige of the Tang Dynasty has also reached an unprecedented height, which can be seen from Li Shimin's face, the smile on his face has not been broken for three days, and the vanity of the whole person has also been greatly satisfied.

However, Li Xiu knew that Li Shimin's prestige was far from reaching its peak now, and it was not until he destroyed Tuyuhun and Gaochang, disabled Goguryeo, and then operated the Western Regions like the native of the Tang Dynasty, then his prestige would reach its peak, and under the leadership of Hui Hui, he was called Tian Khan, and even built a special official road from the grassland, called "Towering Khan Road", mainly allowing envoys of all ethnic groups and even ordinary people to reach Chang'an along this road, see Li Shimin's Tianyan, from this road, It can be seen that Li Shimin's status in the hearts of the people of all ethnic groups can even be compared with the gods.

Wait until almost winter, the envoys of various ethnic groups left Chang'an with rich rewards, but those rewards are not taken in vain, Li Shimin took this opportunity, but also completely opened up the trade with the grassland, it is estimated that by next year, Datang's foreign trade will rise a few more steps.

It is estimated that Li Shimin was addicted to seeing the envoys, and after the envoys of various ethnic groups left, he finally summoned the envoys of the Japanese State who had been forgiven by him for a year, and when Li Xiu knew about this, he immediately paid attention to the situation of the envoys of the Japanese State at all times.
