At the time when Li Xiu lived, although China was no longer the most powerful country in the world, it was a country that was rising rapidly and trying to enhance its international influence, and Li Xiu had seen some reports on the Internet, saying that in China's military academies, there were many students from African countries studying, and most of these students were powerful people from various small African countries, and even the president of a small country had studied in China's military academies.

The magnates of these small countries were educated in China and inherited their positions in their families when they returned to China, and generally had a good opinion of China, which also laid the foundation for future Chinese investment in Africa.

Now Yi Si Qi actually said that he wanted to learn the art of war, which made Li Xiu can't help but have an idea, the Datang Military Academy has been established for several years, and many young generals have been trained over the years, the earliest Su Dingfang can already be in charge, and the future military giant Xue Rengui of the Tang Dynasty is also studying in the military academy, so it is better to send Yi Si Qi in.

Thinking of the above, Li Xiu told the matter of the general academy at the moment, but Yi Si Qi and Misia were all very surprised and asked: "Datang actually has a school that specializes in training generals?" ”

"Yes, our Datang not only has a school to train generals, but also will soon open a school to train low-level officials, but I have to say the ugly things before, the training at the military academy is very hard, just this year to recruit a group of noble children into the military academy to study, limited to ten years old, if the king of Persia wants to go, I can help you intercede with His Majesty, but you also have to be prepared to endure hardship!" Li Xiu said with a smile at this time.

"Great, I'm willing to go, from Persia to Datang thousands of miles, I've suffered all the hardships along the way, as long as I can learn skills, I don't care what kind of hardship!" When Izuchi heard this, he jumped up and shouted excitedly.

"This ...... No way! But at this moment, Misia stood up anxiously, hesitated for a moment and said to stop her.

"Why not, sister, do you want me to be a mediocre like this?" Although he was only ten years old, he had experienced the tragedy of the country's ruin, which made him much more mature than ordinary children, and even had a luxury in his heart, that is, one day he could return to Persia and regain his own throne.

"It's not...... I...... I'm just worried that you'll be bullied when you go to military school! Misia saw that her younger brother was about to cry, and hurriedly denied it, in fact, her worries were also reasonable, after all, during this time, they had already felt the discrimination of the Tang people against them, and the military academy was full of powerful people in the Tang Dynasty, maybe they would look down on the Hu people even more, and Yi Si was likely to be excluded by other students when he entered it.

"Don't worry about this, in fact, you should also be able to find that most of the people who really look down on you Hu people are people with relatively low status, nobles are generally well-educated, even if they look down on it in their hearts, they will not show it on the surface, and we also have a lot of Hu people in Datang as officials, such as General He Panren He among the generals, he is a Hu man, I still have some friendship with him, as far as I know, his two sons are studying in military schools!" Li Xiu smiled again at this time.

Yi Si Qian is a good experimental subject, and he may be able to become a model for the cultural, political, and economic output of the Tang Dynasty in the future, so he naturally will not give up easily, and even think of a reason to persuade Li Shimin.

"Sister, listen, even Guogong supports me, and there are not only Han people among the officials of the Tang Dynasty, plus I am not easy to bully, so don't worry!" Seeing that Li Xiu also supported him, Yi Si Qi said excitedly again at the moment, it seemed that he was determined to go to the military academy.

"But ......" Misia was still a little hesitant when she heard this, in fact, she was worried that Yi Si Qi would be bullied was only one of them, and the other most important thing was that she only had one brother like Yi Si Qi left, and naturally she didn't want him to be in any more danger, but if he went to the military academy, he would definitely go to the battlefield in the future, and she also knew that ambition was directly proportional to ability, and if Yi Si Qi had the ability in the future, maybe he would really venture back to Persia one day in the future.

"Misia, I know you're worried about Yi Si Qi, but if you think about it, Yi Si Qi is only ten years old, and he will have a long life in the future, do you really want him to live a life of eating and waiting for death in Chang'an for the rest of his life? People must always have some pursuit in life, so that they can have the motivation to live! Li Xiu said earnestly at this time, in order to persuade Misia, he rarely told the big truth.

"Yes, sister, didn't you force me to learn more things before, hoping that I could be an emperor of Zhongxing Persia, and now although we escaped from Persia, we can't give up our previous ideals!" At this time, Izuku also stepped up his strength.

In the face of the persuasion of Li Xiu and her younger brother, Misia finally wavered, only to see her bow her head and ponder for a while, then she finally raised her head and said to Yi Si Qiu: "Okay, since you have decided to learn to be a general, then I won't stop you, but you have to master the writing of the Central Plains first, after all, although you are speaking well now, you can't write yet!" ”

"No problem, thank you sister!" When Yi Si saw that his sister agreed, he immediately shouted excitedly, this should be the happiest thing he had since he escaped from Persia, even when he first arrived in Chang'an, he didn't get so excited.

Seeing that Misia agreed, Li Xiu was also relieved, Yi Si Qi was the king of Persia, and his use value to the Tang Dynasty was great, and Persia was also very far away from the Tang Dynasty, so even if he learned the art of war of the Tang Dynasty, he would not pose any substantial threat to the Tang Dynasty in the future.

What's more, Da Shi is not a vegetarian, this theocratic empire is one of the most terrible empires in history, taking a step back, even if Persia and Rome join forces, it is impossible to eliminate each other, and even take a step back, even if Yi Si Qi really returns to the country in the future, I am afraid that he will try his best to establish a good relationship with the Tang Dynasty, so that he will have the strength to stop the attack of the big cannibals.

And in the future, if Yi Si Qi can really return to the country, with him in Central Asia, coupled with the expansion of the Tang Dynasty to the Western Regions, it will definitely make the Silk Road more smooth, so that the goods of the Tang Dynasty can be marketed throughout Eurasia.

Misia took Yi Si Qi out to increase some knowledge, after all, Chang'an City is so big, they will live here in the future, so she has been taking Yi Si Qi around for a while, as for coming here today, I also heard that the food in this restaurant is good, so I want to come and taste it, anyway, they are not short of money, after all, when they escaped from Persia, they brought a lot of valuable things, and one or two things are enough for their sister and brother's expenses.

Li Xiu is also a delicious person, he has also been to this restaurant, and he is no stranger to the dishes here, and when the dishes come up, he takes the initiative to tell Yi Si Qi about the practice of some dishes, and by the way, he also brings out some interesting allusions, which even Misia has heard for the first time, plus Li Xiu is also very talkative, so this meal is naturally enjoyable for the guests and hosts.

Waiting until it was getting late, Li Xiu got up to say goodbye, and Misia also planned to take Yi Si to enjoy the night view of Chang'an City, and it was not good for Li Xiu to accompany him, so he personally sent the other party out of the restaurant, and then turned around and continued to play in the West Market, anyway, Chang'an is not curfew now, and even the night is more lively than the day.

Early the next morning, Li Xiu entered the palace and told Li Shimin that Yi Si Qi wanted to go to the military academy to study, and also helped him analyze the pros and cons, in fact, with Li Shimin's shrewdness, Li Xiu thought of the benefits as soon as he opened his mouth, so he also agreed very happily, anyway, there are many Hu people among the officials of the Tang Dynasty, as long as Yi Si has the ability, even if he does not return to Persia in the future, he can also mix an official and a half-position in the Tang Dynasty.

A few days later, the first batch of materials from Luoyang Bank finally arrived, the connection between the two banks was officially opened, and the remote access between banks was finally realized.

After all, people in this era have limited knowledge, and the matter of saving money in Luoyang but being able to withdraw money in Chang'an is a great thing in their opinion, which is enough for people to talk about for several days before it calms down, but the bank's business has also burst into a peak, after all, Chang'an and Luoyang are the two most prosperous cities in Datang, and the commercial activities between each other are also very frequent, so naturally there is a large amount of wealth circulation, and there are many businessmen who need this business.

Xu Jingzong is temporarily sitting in Luoyang, after all, the bank over there has just been established, and there can't be only one bank in Luoyang, so Xu Jingzong estimates that he won't come back this year, so the bank on the Chang'an side will have Li Xiu to worry about a lot, so he is also very busy during this time.

But no matter how busy he is, Li Xiu will try to find as much time as possible to visit Li Chengqian, and at the same time, he also discussed with Sun Simiao the exercise method of Li Chengqian's injured leg, which is actually physical therapy in later generations, so that Li Chengqian can return to normal, at least let him walk like a normal person.

Li Chengqian is also very cooperative with Li Xiu's treatment, you must know that physical therapy is very painful, you need to keep stretching the muscles, sometimes you need to massage the joints, Li Chengqian's bones in West Asia have not grown well, now these exercises, every time it hurts, he is sweating profusely, but he has never complained.

Time passed day by day, seeing that the Spring Festival was approaching, Li Chengqian's injuries recovered quickly, and he could even walk on the ground, everything seemed to be developing in a good way, but in the middle of the month, a far-reaching storm suddenly broke out in the court!
