Li Li saluted and said: "If the school is satisfied, is Fang Xiang willing to accept this child as a disciple regardless of his previous suspicions?" ”

Saying that, putting the basket on the table, Li Lizhi explained: "This is the pumpkin pie that this kid sent for yesterday's outrageous words, and it is his apology." ”

Fang Xuanling glanced at the pumpkin pie and said, "Children are always angry, and the old man won't care about you about yesterday's affairs." ”

Zhang Xin'an said: "Then ask the prime minister to ask the question." ”

Fang Xuanling stroked his beard and said: "If one day the court wants to attack Lishan, what should you do?" ”

Zhang Xin'an frowned and said, "Why did the DPRK attack Lishan? ”

Li Lizhi explained in a low voice: "Peace of mind, this is the question of Fang Xiang, and it is not really to attack Lishan." ”

Fang Xuanling said: "You answer." ”

The hall was quiet for a long time, Zhang Xin'an searched for the memories in his mind, and remembered a story that his father told him and his sister at the beginning, and said: "Tian Khan has soldiers and horses all over the world, why did he come to attack Lishan?" What is Lishan's sin? ”

He took two steps back and forth and continued: "Lishan only has more than 100 acres of land as his home, and Tian Khan sits on Sheji, thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, why worry about no land? Lishan is not guilty, but the emperor wants to attack because it is unkind, Fang Xiang has always understood the truth that he should advise His Majesty, and if he does not persuade him, he will not fight, it is Fang Xiang's disloyalty. ”

Fang Xuanling listened and gradually had a smile on his face.

Zhang Xin'an's words were immature but loud.

"Your Majesty is the most noble person in the world, but he can't even tolerate a single Lishan, which is unjust."

Fang Xuanling asked with interest: "In this way, Your Majesty's attack on Lishan has become unkind and unjust, and the old man has become disloyal?" ”

"Your Majesty is in charge of tens of millions of horses and soldiers in the world, there are only a few 300 people in Lishan, the soldiers and horses are not your Majesty's soldiers and horses in the world, Your Majesty enjoys the world's money and grain taxes, but Lishan only has three taels of trading and business for a living, Your Majesty enjoys the worship of all countries, Lishan only has the gift of human exchanges, and Lishan is just a puddle of water compared to Your Majesty."

Zhang Xin'an saluted and said, "The kid dares to ask Your Majesty." ”

Li Shimin's expression was a little more solemn, "You say." ”

The immature voice sounded again, "Your Majesty, if the court wants to attack Lishan, then Daddy can only dedicate the entire Lishan to Your Majesty." ”

"For this reason, the construction of Lishan and the villagers of Lishan can continue to live, all Lishan wants is the safety of the villagers in a place, and what Daddy gets is benevolence and the respect of all the people."

"Even though my father has lost everything and has won the respect of the world, His Majesty is an unkind and unrighteous person when he conquers Lishan."

"Dare to ask, even if my father really gave Lishan to His Majesty like this, does Your Majesty dare to ask for it?"

The hall fell silent again.

Li Shimin suddenly laughed, and the laughter was loud, echoing in the hall.

The two living men sitting on the side wrote today's words on the living notes.

Fang Xuanling bowed his head and said, "These words were taught to you by your father?" ”

Zhang Xin'an replied: "It's not Professor Daddy, it's when Daddy and Sister were arguing, the kid heard it by chance, at that time, my sister often said that she was going to blow up Chang'an City, so in order to persuade my sister, I told such a story." ”

Fang Xuanling stroked his beard and looked at His Majesty who was full of smiles.

Li Shimin's laughter stopped, waved his sleeves, stared at the child, and said: "Zhang Yang was also a good speaker back then, you have your father's demeanor." ”

"Parents are the role models of the child's life, the father has never failed anyone, the child should also be in the same lineage, if the fang xiang can accept the child as a disciple, the kid will not live up to the fang xiang."

Li Shimin nodded and said, "Fang Xiang's disciple is like this, I am glad for this." ”

Fang Xuanling raised his voice and said: "Such a disciple, the minister is ashamed. ”

Li Lizhi stood beside him and bowed down and said, "Don't you worship the teacher yet?" ”

When Zhang Xin'an heard this, he hurriedly saluted, "Disciple Xin'an, please meet the teacher." ”

His Majesty's laughter came from the hall again, and Fang Xuanling finally accepted Zhang Xin'an, a disciple.

"Since you live in Lishan, every two days in the future, the old man's mansion will go to the old man's mansion in the afternoon to teach what you lack."

"Thank you, teacher."

Fang Xuanling stroked his beard and nodded.

Waiting for Zhang Xin'an to leave, Li Shimin said: "I didn't expect me to contribute to this incident." ”

Fang Xuanling said again: "If Your Majesty intends to let the old minister accept this child as a disciple, the minister will definitely teach him carefully." ”

Li Shimin said discouragedly: "Look at this child of Lishan, it is so extraordinary. ”

Fang Xuanling replied: "It's not just this child, such as King Jin, Princess Changle, and Princess Dongyang, their insights and visions are also comparable to ordinary peers, not to mention Zhang Yang's children." ”

"Hmm." Li Shimin nodded and said, "Is the room still satisfied?" ”

Fang Xuanling said: "Such a talented and agile person, how can his peers be the opponent of this child, the old minister did not have such a demeanor when he was a child, so compared with him, the minister received this disciple, and the minister was terrified." ”

"There is also a very good child in Lishan."

Fang Xuanling stroked his beard and said: "What Your Majesty said is the eldest daughter of Lishan, Zhang Qingqing?" ”

Li Shimin nodded and said: "Back then, the queen wanted to accept that child as a disciple, but she refused, that child is not only quick to think, can speak well, both mathematics and talent are all top learning, before Zhang Gongjin passed away, he passed on his life's skills to her. ”

"This is also to listen to Zhang Gongjin himself, there are some things he didn't teach Zhang Yang, but they were all taught to Zhang Yang's children, but that's it, she followed Li Jing to learn the art of war, followed Zhang Gongjin to learn strategy, and Ouyang Xun learned to learn, and Yue'er personally passed on the number of skills."

"There is also Zhang Yang's teaching all along, my younger brother is still like this, and the sister can imagine that the juniors of the Tang Dynasty are more brilliant than the other."

Fang Xuanling lowered his eyebrows and said in a deep voice: "It's enviable, but it's also uneasy." ”

Li Lizhi took Zhang Xin'an out of the palace gate, Li Tai had been waiting here for a long time, and he asked, "How is it today?" ”

Zhang Xin'an said: "Fang Xiang accepted me as a disciple." ”

Li Tai patted him on the back with satisfaction, "Okay, the eldest husband should be like this, and he can't back down." ”

"Hee-hee."

Zhang Xin'an followed Aunt Lizhen into the carriage.

Li Tai personally sat on the wheel and drove the horses back to Lishan together.

Zhang Yang and his daughter-in-law are busy in the fields of the village, and after winter, they have to inspect the frozen soil in the fields.

Xiaohui and Xiaowu are very busy, and they don't have a helper at home.

The couple came together to check the frozen soil in the field.

Li Xiaogong is still talking to a county magistrate.

"King of Hejian County, why is this year's model worker county not Xinfeng County?" Yan Zhang, the county magistrate of Xinfeng County, looked anxious, "If you want to talk about output, the soap workshop in my county has always been very good." ”

Li Xiaogong took the trouble and explained: "If you look at the accounts of Weinan County, their cloth and silk output value is several times that of yours. ”

Yan Zhang said: "The profit of this soap is naturally not as high as that of cloth, and Lishan cannot be rated as a model worker in this way, and there are many unconvinced counties in the townships and counties." ”

Li Xiaogong said: "The selection of model worker counties is not just about who produces more? It also depends on the management ability, if your soap is well managed, the output value will not be less than that of other cloth mills, right? ”

Yan Zhang wanted to speak and stopped, and this also made sense.

Li Xiaogong comforted: "This is only the first year of selection, and it will continue to be selected in the coming year, but it is just a pennant with a little support." ”

The county magistrate of Xinfeng County, Yan Zhang said: "To others, it is just a pennant, but to the lower officials, this means a lot." ”

"You can rest assured, this time the selection is the old man personally took people to the counties to inspect the evaluation, involving not only quality and quantity, but also production standards, villagers and business efficiency, you should be more good to learn from the county officials, the model county is a role model, keep up with the example, and make adequate preparations for the coming year."

"These are the conditions for the evaluation, the old man has told you all, if you can't get it in the coming year, don't come to ask the old man again, you all have to walk around in each county, don't just close the door and do things yourself, it's not a bad thing to communicate more."

Xinfeng County Cheng bowed and saluted: "Xie Hejian County King pointed out." ”

Li Xiaogong handed him a handful of pumpkin seeds, and finally sent the county away.

As soon as Zhang Xin'an arrived in Lishan, he rode Xiong Er to find him, "Dad! Mother! Fang Xiang accepted me as a disciple. ”

Zhang Yang straightened up.

Li Yue wrote the record and looked at it.

Xiong Er ran over, its mouth was still spitting hot air, Zhang Yang broke off its head and asked, "Did you really agree?" ”

Zhang Xin'an replied: "The child met with the prime minister and the emperor, and then asked a question, and the child answered. ”

Zhang Yang said: "Okay, you hurry home and write today's homework." ”

"The boy went back."

The couple stood in the field, Li Yue held the scroll in his hand and smiled: "This child is really blessed." ”

Zhang Yang said with a smile: "Our children are all blessed. ”

Li Yue smiled happily, "Look at our children, what stupid children." ”

In the evening, the wind in Guanzhong became colder, and it began to snow at night.

Afterwards, Zhang Yang learned that the reason why the child was able to be accepted as a disciple by Fang Xiang was because he told the emperor a story about the king of Chu attacking the Song Dynasty and being persuaded by Mozi to give up.

In the evening, the family ate hot pot, and Zhang Qingqing began to help Aunt Xiaohui do things and began to participate in the operation of Lishan.

Zhang Qingqing said: "My daughter wants to follow Aunt Xiaohui to do these things, but my brother is too stupid to count on him." ”

Zhang Xin'an smiled innocently, "It's still my sister's wisdom that is higher." ”

Zhang Qingqing said again: "Peace of mind, you are too proud in the outside world, forget it this time, in the future, you must put away your pretentious momentum in front of outsiders, be humble, and don't talk about what your father and mother taught you in front of the prime minister." ”

Zhang Xin couldn't help nodding, chewing the mutton with a small mouth and said, "Don't worry, sister, brother will be cautious." ”

In this way, Zhang Qingqing was satisfied and continued to take care of his younger brother Qiu'er.

The daughter is growing up fast, and at the age of nine, she has begun to help the family.

In her words, there are two ignorant and stupid younger brothers in the family, and she, as an older sister, doesn't grow up early, does she still have to point to these two stupid younger brothers?

After taking care of Qiu'er's younger brother and finishing the meal, she ate by herself, originally these things were done by her aunt, but now the two aunts have to clean up the yard.

Zhang Qingqing ate and said, "Dad." ”

Zhang Yang nodded while eating, "Hmm." ”

"In this year's model worker county competition, did the court send a medal?"

"Yes." Zhang Yang pointed to the study behind him, "It's on the table, you can go and see it yourself." ”

Zhang Xin'an was eating, looking at his sister was already full of admiration, and the temperament and bearing shown by his sister already had the appearance of a little master.

"Concentrate on eating, don't look around."

"Whew......"

Hearing his mother's words, he lowered his head and took two large mouthfuls of rice.

After eating, Zhang Yang likes to drink a cup of strong tea and watch the wind and snow outside the house.

Zhang Qingqing walked outside the house wearing a skirt and a scarf, and said curiously: "Dad, who is this Guo Zhengyi?" ”

"This year's newly promoted civil officials in the imperial examination, after the imperial examination jinshi and the first, are now the bachelors of the Hongwen Hall."

Zhang Qingqing said unhappily: "A bachelor from the Hongwen Pavilion can impeach Lishan like this and use the evaluation without permission?" The DPRK and China want to replace Lisan and evaluate the model worker county. ”

Zhang Yang drank tea and said with a smile: "Even if the court wants to replace Lishan, the counties must obey them." ”

Zhang Qingqing said disdainfully: "He's just a little trick to ask for directions, if someone in the court supports his statement, there will be people who advocate it, and even he won't participate in this matter in the future, anyway, there are a lot of discussions about Lishan in the court now, and he is not worse than this." ”

"Even you can see it, how can those old foxes in the DPRK and China not see that sooner or later the model worker county will be involved in the promotion of county officials in various counties, and it is better not to evaluate if it is not fair and just, whose protégé, who can tell clearly?"

"My daughter understands."

The lanterns on the eaves moved in the wind, and only the snow flakes could be faintly seen falling in front of me.

"General Wei Chi and General Li Daliang have retired, and retired veterans are fond of weapons and good horses." Zhang Yang continued to advise: "You tell the people in the village to let them forge two good knives, and then give the two bloody horses that the Turks gave to Lishan this year to the two generals. ”

"Daughter, I'll arrange it early tomorrow morning."

Zhang Yang nodded and said, "Rest early." ”

Zhang Xin'an grew up under her watch, Qiu'er is also taking care of her now, what the two younger brothers are thinking about, Zhang Qingqing knows best.

She whispered, "These two younger brothers are really blessed to have me as an older sister. ”

Zhang Yang sighed as he drank the tea.

Walking back to the warm house, Li Yue was still busy by the loom.

Zhang Yang pulled her hands, "On this cold day, I still have to use a loom, and these hands are so red from the cold." ”

"I haven't seen my biological mother since I was a child, so I wonder if other people's mothers are like this." She smiled softly.

Holding her cold hands, she sat next to the loom, since the glass was installed in the house, there would be no cold wind pouring in, and it was warmer.

Feeling the cold hands in his hands gradually warm, Zhang Yang lowered his head and said: "I watched the music in the middle of the court, Lu Zhaolin sent someone to Tianshan to ask for medicine, and what he asked was a medicine called Snow Lotus. ”

"Go to Tianshan to ask for medicine?"

"Well, although I didn't say who this medicine was for, I thought it should be for the emperor, the emperor's physical condition is the strictest, I guess he went to Zhongnan Mountain, and after he came back, he was mostly sick for three days, and now Lu Zhaolin sent someone to ask for medicine."

Li Yue's face was embarrassed, "Father? ”

Zhang Yang put his arm around her shoulder, "It's mostly related to your father's health condition, and at present, the condition should not be serious." ”
