With Li Er's majesty leaving the center of power in the imperial court, only Du Ruhui and Li Jing were two, Li Chengqian did not vigorously promote his Eastern Palace subordinate officials to important positions, nor did he wantonly demote the old ministers of Zhenguan and drive them away, and carried out the practice of purging the former ministers of the emperor and a courtier, but still used the old courtiers left by his father and some young courtiers, and the young courtiers selected by the imperial examination, he believed that these courtiers were not disloyal to the Tang Dynasty, and there were not many people with the ability to govern the country among the subordinate officials of the East Palace.

Therefore, Li Chengqian retained a lot of capable officials, and did not depose any very capable officials, even if he was deposed, it was also very reasonable, to depose the incompetent officials and mediocre officials, increase the number of imperial histories, and scatter out with the tokens of the Son of Heaven, everywhere to inspect the achievements and official reputation of local officials, especially focusing on the political achievements and official reputation of the graduate officials of the University of Political Science and Law.

For Li Chengqian, as an emperor, he has done a lot, he shouldn't do more, if he does more, what do you want his courtiers to do? Zhuge Liang died of exhaustion because of this, and there was no one who could inherit Zhuge Liang in Shu for this, and Zhuge Liang also had to bear some responsibility for the decline of Shu.

But he seems to have inexhaustible energy, as long as he is awake, he will not allow himself to be idle, do meaningless things, what he wants to do, even if it is just a walk, is also more important, and the only time of the day when he is not doing things for himself is a time period of only half an hour, in this time period, he will specifically test Li Xiang and Li Ju's homework, Li Ju is still very young, and the content of the school is literacy. Li Xiang wants to take the school entrance examination, but that's not all.

"At the beginning of man, his nature is good, what does this mean?" Li Chengqian was sitting on the cushion, holding a book, looking at Li Xiang who was sitting opposite him, and asked.

Li Xiang did not hesitate. He said: "It means that when people are just born, their nature is good and pure, and they will not do bad things or break the law. ”

Li Chengqian nodded and continued to ask: "Then why are people kind when they are just born, but when they grow up, they will do illegal things?" Becoming no longer kind? The imperial court also had to make laws and regulations to regulate and restrain people's behavior? ”

An uninexplicable light flashed in Li Xiang's eyes. He bit his lip, as if he hesitated, and after a long time made a decision, he said: "Because I have not received a good education, I have not learned the responsibilities that life has to bear in the world, and I only want to enjoy happiness, but I don't want to work, so there will be people who break the law and discipline." ”

Li Chengqian's eyebrows raised. He saw Li Xiang's small movements, and he didn't think that Li Xiang's small movements were boring at such times. Meaningless move: "So how can this situation be improved?" ”

This time, Li Xiang said the answer very smoothly: "Build schools, build Mongolian schools, primary schools, middle schools, and universities, and educate all the people layer by layer." Teach people how to be an upright person, be a man who stands up to the sky, and after the indoctrination is completed, there will naturally be no more violations of law and discipline, and the world can be the same. ”

Li Chengqian suddenly laughed. Throwing the book aside, he picked up the teacup on the table and drank it, drank it for a while, put down the teacup, and asked Li Xiangdao: "Then, can you sue sù as a father, if it is said that not getting a good education is the main reason for violating the law and discipline, then why are there so many officials who have read and been educated to break the law and discipline, prey on the common people, and be corrupt?" Do they do this because they have not been well educated? ”

Li Xiang was stunned for a moment, lowered his head and didn't speak, and seemed to be a little speechless, Li Chengqian asked: "When Fang asked your father the second question for you, your words flickered, as if you were deliberately avoiding something, do you know the answer, but you don't want to sue sù as your father?" ”

Li Xiang shook his head again and again: "No, no, my son doesn't dare to hide anything from my father, and I don't dare to hide anything from my father." ”

Li Chengqian stiffened his face: "You must know, but you don't sue your father, this is an act of deception, at least you are deceiving your father, and at worst you are deceiving your father, and at worst, you are saying that this is the crime of deceiving the king!" Not to mention, don't blame the monk for his father's sacrifice! ”

Li Xiang's face turned pale, obviously aroused by the word family law, some not very good memories, after a while, Li Xiang hesitated and said: "It was Uncle Su who said it, Uncle Su told Sù'er that the reason why there was a violation of law and discipline was not a matter of education at all, and it was precisely the group of people who had the most books that violated the law and discipline, and the peasants who had not read books were more honest and would not do this kind of thing." ”

Li Chengqian was a little surprised, but he didn't expect Suning to pass on knowledge to Li Xiang like this, although he asked Suning to often take Li Xiang and Li Ju to play, and he had the idea of wanting Li Xiang and Li Ju to learn some of Suning's strengths, but Suning actually let Li Xiang know the truth of the book knowledge so early, but it was a little unexpected by Li Chengqian.

"Then you sue sù for your father, did Uncle Su also sue you for the reason for these things?" Li Chengqian continued to ask with a straight face, and Li Xiang knew everything: "Uncle Su said that the reason why people who read the most books break the law and discipline is because the reason why they study is not to learn knowledge, but to be officials.

If you read more and read well, you will become an official, and if you are an official, you will have authority, and with authority, you will breed more ideas that you have not had before, some people will slap them, some people will give them money and goods, and those who are not strong-willed will be corrupted because of this, and they will fall, and after getting a little bit, they will want to get more, and they will not be able to extricate themselves. ”

Li Chengqian became more and more surprised, and then stared at Li Xiang tightly: "Do you understand what this means?" ”

Li Xiang replied honestly: "I don't understand, I can't figure it out, I can't figure it out." ”

Li Chengqian sighed slightly, nodded and said: "Remember these words of Uncle Su, you must firmly remember, you are still young, you still don't understand, this is normal, my father will not blame you, when you grow up, when you reach your teens, learn more knowledge, and meet more people, you will understand many things, and you will understand why these are these." That's when you understand, and you're going to be enlightened, and you have to understand that. ”

Li Xiang blinked his eyes, nodded in a daze, and then said, "But there are some things that Uncle Su said, I understand." ”

Li Chengqian said angrily: "What's the matter? ”

Li Xiang said: "Uncle Su said. If you want an official to do his own thing honestly, don't dare to be corrupt...... The words of the people should make him feel afraid, and make him feel that as long as he does something wrong, he will be dismissed, and the child didn't understand it at the time, but then Uncle Su said that it was like a child who was afraid of his father, and once the child was lazy and didn't study well, he would be noticed by his father. The father will always test the child's homework, and if the child does not study hard, he will be punished if he is noticed.

The child is afraid of this kind of punishment, so he will study hard, he will study hard, and he will not dare to slack off, just like those officials. If they are as scared as children, they will be honest officials. Don't dare to prey on the people, don't dare to be corrupt, so if you want them not to break the law and discipline, you can only make them feel scared like children. ”

Li Chengqian sighed slightly, stroked Li Xiang's head, and thought about it. opened his mouth and said: "That's right, although your Uncle Su is not the person who reads the most in the entire Datang, he must be the smartest person in the entire Datang, and you can learn from your Uncle Su the answers that you can't get from books." Learn more from your Uncle Su! ”

Li Xiang was puzzled: "Uncle Su is the smartest?" But father, Uncle Su is just playing with us? ”

Li Chengqian was also slightly stunned, then laughed, and then said: "Yes, play more with your Uncle Su, when there is nothing to do in the future, you can also go to Uncle Su's house by yourself, you can also find Uncle Su, if Uncle Su is not there, you can also find Qingren and Qingli, there are many children in Uncle Su's house, there are boys, and girls...... Kindness...... That's right, that's right, you can go to Uncle Su's house to play often, well, go a few more times, it's okay to stay longer, even if it's for the night, it's not impossible, hehehehehe......"

Li Chengqian suddenly thought of the excellent genes of the Su family, several children are either mighty or handsome, girls are either heroic, or gentle and lovely, Suning's eldest daughter Su Qingrong is young, but she is as fresh and lovely as a hibiscus out of the water, Li Chengqian has heard that many people are secretly playing the idea of this eldest daughter, that is the twin daughters of Su Houye, if you can't marry home, you can be rich and good-looking and have another pair of twins, that is what many people dream of.

Li Chengqian suddenly felt that it was a very regrettable thing that his father did not become Suning's father-in-law because of his age, and for many years afterward, every time Li Chengqian saw Li Xiaogong enter the palace to visit Li Erma, Li Ermaxi would sigh in front of Li Chengqian that he was one step earlier than Li Xiaogong, so he lost a good son-in-law, otherwise the relationship between the royal family and the Su family would be on a higher level, of course, since the reality is already like this, Li Chengqian will not feel so disappointed, after all, it depends on fate.

He has been to the Su family several times, he has seen a group of children of the Su family, whether it is Su Dingfang's children or Suning's children, to be honest, he himself is a little jealous, so many children, all of them look very good, very connotative, at a young age, he dances with sticks, knives and guns, and the school homework is also a quasi-child, and the girls also read, but more is to learn to be a female red, learn to run a family, learn to manage accounts, and develop in the direction of a good wife and mother, of course, Su Dingfang's eldest daughter Su Qingyi and Suning's second daughter Su Qinglan seem to be more manly, they like knives, guns and sticks and don't like embroidery to manage accounts, Suning and Su Dingfang seem to be a little troubled.

Forget these two, but Suning's eldest daughter, the same age as Li Xiang, Su Qingrong is really a gentle and virtuous character, polite, bookish, and soft-spoken when she speaks, she can't see Li Ruihan's bold appearance at all, and she can't see the posture of inheriting her mother's business and becoming the third generation of heroines in Chang'an City in the future.

Of course, Suning didn't know that Li Chengqian was playing with his daughter's idea, if he knew, he would definitely go to the palace to find Li Chengqian desperately, and finally cultivated his daughter to be everyone's daughter-in-law, and you would think it was your daughter-in-law at a glance? Do you fucking know how hard I've gone to keep her from going in her mother's direction? You don't understand the blood and tears at the beginning, and you want to marry my daughter without saying a word? Think beautifully!

Suning has been living quite comfortably these days, although his official duties have become busier after he has done the vertical and horizontal Shangshu, and even many things in the court have to wait for his own decision, but he has long been accustomed to such a fast-paced life, and he will not feel any sense of disobedience, and he still insists on it, but he still has some small dissatisfactions, such as Li Chengqian treating him as a super dad and letting him take care of the children for free, and explaining life principles to them and teaching them some very important things, I can't bear to watch them go astray, And then grow up to scourge yourself.

This kind of thing is absolutely not allowed to happen, absolutely not allowed...... (To be continued......)
