Chapter 54: Li Shimin

……

The cold winter has finally passed, and the spring has recovered.

Li Shimin, the king of Qin, took his eldest grandson and went to the suburbs.

Looking at the fields in front of him, the wheat that had just grown young leaves, Li Shimin sighed: "Every year the war is fought, the people are not living, and now that I have founded the Tang Dynasty, the people finally have a place to live and work in peace and contentment!" ”

The eldest grandson took Li Shimin's hand and said with a smile: "The people live and work in peace and contentment, mainly due to the merits of the husband. ”

After hearing this, Li Shimin shook his head. The situation between himself and the crown prince is becoming more and more delicate.

The two walked slowly holding hands, and unconsciously walked to the vicinity of Zhaojia Village.

"The grass grows and the warbler flies in February, the willows on the embankment are drunk with spring smoke, the children return early from school, and they are busy taking advantage of the east wind to release paper kites."

The adults in the fields were busy weeding, and a few children were singing songs on the ridges.

Li Shimin was quite shocked when he listened to their singing, the lyrics of this song were clearly a poem.

The eldest grandson smiled and said: "Listening to the lyrics are quite novel and exquisite, I have never heard it before, could it be that it is a new work by a talented person?" ”

The two of them walked forward and asked the children, "Where did you learn the song you just sang?" ”

Several of the children did not answer, but kept shaking their heads.

The adults on the side saw it, stepped forward and said with a smile, "Is there anything wrong with this son?" ”

Li Shimin asked: "I don't know where they learned the song they sang just now!" ”

The man listened, sighed, and said, "They listened to the children of Zhaojia Village and learned from it. ”

Li Shimin then asked: "Then who did the children of Zhaojia Village learn from?" ”

The man said enviously: "A gentleman came to Zhaojia Village, set up a private school, and taught them the children of Zhaojia Village for free. ”

"Why doesn't our village have this blessing!"

After Li Shimin heard the news, he expressed his gratitude.

Turning to the eldest grandson, he said, "Let's go to Zhaojia Village and see this gentleman." ”

The eldest grandson nodded, and walked forward with Li Shimin in his arms.

At the entrance of Zhaojia Village, someone saw Li Shimin who came and stepped forward and asked, "I don't know what happened to a few people who came to our Zhaojia Village?" ”

Li Shimin replied with a smile: "I heard that there is a teacher here, so I came to visit!" ”

The villager said proudly: "Mr. is in the west of the village, but it is class time, if you look for Mr., you may have to wait." ”

Li Shimin nodded and replied, "It just so happens that I also want to see what Mr. is like in class." ”

Walking to the west of the village, before I got closer, there was a melodious sound of reading.

"In the Qin period, the bright moon and the Han period, the Long March has not been returned, but the dragon city will fly in, and he will teach Hu Ma to Yin Mountain."

"What a poem!"

When the eldest grandson heard this, he immediately exclaimed.

Li Shimin also nodded in agreement.

Looking through the low courtyard wall.

A young man in a cyan robe sits in a shed with a group of children.

The young man took the charcoal and wrote a poem on the board behind him.

"On the afternoon of hoeing day, sweat drops into the soil, who knows that the Chinese food on the plate is hard work."

Put down the charcoal and say to the students: "Today we will learn a new poem, called Min Nong"

"Tell me what this poem means first!"

A child, sitting at the back, held out his hand.

The young man asked him to answer, and the boy stood up and replied, "This poem expresses that it is not easy to farm the land, and it is necessary to save food. ”

"Well said!"

Everyone applauded him.

"Read along with me."

……

……

Li Shimin stood outside the courtyard and waited until the students finished school.

After the students left, they stepped forward and saluted: "In Xia Li Shimin, I have seen Mr.!" ”

After hearing this, the young man immediately returned the salute: "It turned out that it was King Qin in person, and he had seen King Qin in Xia Zhao Tuo." ”

"King Qin, please!"

Zhao Tuo took Li Shimin and sat in the place where the students were in class.

Li Shimin asked Zhao Tuo: "I just watched your class, there were two poems in the class, which are quite exquisite and lofty, I don't know if it was written by Mr.!" ”

Zhao Tuo shook his head and replied, "King Qin didn't dare to lie to his face, these two poems were not made by me, I heard them from elsewhere." ”

Li Shimin was stunned for a moment, and then asked: "Then do you know who made these two poems?" ”

Zhao Tuo continued to shake his head and replied: "I don't know, I also heard others chant it, and I just wrote it down if I thought it was good." ”

Li Shimin didn't get the answer he wanted, stood up, and said he was leaving.

Zhao Tuo immediately bent down and arched his hand and said, "Congratulations to King Qin!" ”

Li Shimin, who left, said to the eldest grandson: "What do you think of this person?" ”

The eldest grandson smiled and replied, "This slippery head doesn't have a word of truth in his mouth. ”

"Hahaha"

Li Shimin laughed and said, "You can see it too!" ”

The eldest grandson continued: "That poem is clearly made by him, and he still doesn't admit it!" ”

"Let's go back first."

Li Shimin, who returned to the Qin Palace, asked people to investigate Zhao Tuo's information.

At this time in the East Palace, the crown prince Li Jiancheng also received the news.

Li Shimin, the king of Qin, took his eldest grandson out to play in the morning and visited a teacher.

Li Jiancheng was also curious about who this teaching gentleman was, so he also sent someone to investigate.

In the evening, his subordinates came back to report that the teaching gentleman was named Zhao Tuo, who was quite literary and kind-hearted. It was to enter Chang'an with the displaced people, and was later moved to Zhaojia Village by the government. once went to the recruitment hall of Li Shimin, the king of Qin, but was expelled because of his sloppy appearance. Later, he set up a private school in Zhaojia Village and became a gentleman.

Li Jiancheng smiled, he remembered that he had met a sloppy scholar who had been expelled at the gate of the Zhaoxian Pavilion. He was also given some money.

Li Jiancheng immediately left a message, announcing that Zhao Kuo would come to see him tomorrow.

……

Qin Wangfu.

Li Shimin looked at the information in his hand and said angrily: "This bastard thing." ”

The eldest grandson on the side looked at Zhao Tuo's information and understood why Li Shimin was angry.

smiled and said, "There are many people under him, and there are always those who can't be disciplined." It's just a Zhao Tuo, why bother with such a big fire. ”

"Alas!"

Li Shimin sighed and said, "The reputation of my King of Qin has been ruined by these scum!" ”

"It seems that I still have to find a time to visit, that Zhao Tuo."
