"It's so lively!"

Li Shimin stepped into the courtyard wall of the East Palace, and saw that all the babies were flying kites surrounded by eunuchs and maids, and couldn't help but roll up his sleeves and step forward.

"Higher, higher!"

"Come, Lizhen, my father will help you release it, surpass them!"

"Father, you're here!" When Li Lizhi saw that her father was coming, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she didn't want the kite in her hand.

"Ouch yo ......"

Li Shimin picked her up, took the kite handle from the eunuch, and said with a smile,

"Come on, look at it!"

"Whew-"

As soon as the palm of his hand was loosened, the thread that had just been withdrawn was released again in an instant, and Li Lizhi's swallow kite immediately surpassed several brothers and sisters and flew high into the sky!

"Oh, oh!"

Li Lizhi clapped her hands and said,

"Father is so good! Father is great! Higher, higher! ”

She was so happy that she completely forgot what Master had just taught.

After all, if you don't slap your head, it won't hurt!

"I can't do it anymore, ...... beauty"

Li Shimin retracted the kite string slightly, and said with a warm smile,

"The wind in the sky is too strong, no matter how high this line is, it can't be stretched, and it will break."

"Come, hold it steady, and let those slaves and maids hold you, or else...... This kite is going to take you to heaven! ”

Li Lizhi took the handle from her father's hand, and sure enough, she stumbled forward and was almost taken away by the kite!

Fortunately, a slave was prepared in advance and grabbed her arm and stabilized her figure.

"Hoohoo - take off, take off!"

Li Lizhi puffed out her mouth and shouted,

"Feifei Fei—"

While she was having fun, the other children gave their hands to the attendants beside them, ran up and saluted:

"Son-in-law, see father."

At the same time, they were also a little weak-hearted, and carefully looked at their father's expression.

After all, they all skipped the exam and sneaked out to play.

Li Shimin waved his hand.

"Let's play, let's play."

He said casually,

"If you want to play, have fun, have fun!"

"Go ahead."

Seeing that the father's expression was not abnormal, and he was so tolerant, the children looked at each other and showed bright smiles.

"Yes, Father Xie!"

Looking at their backs as they jumped and ran, Li Shimin smiled slightly and walked towards the pavilion where Xu Fenglei was.

"See Your Majesty."

Xu Fenglei took a sip of grape wine and got up to greet him.

"Excuse me."

Li Shimin waved his hand, sat down casually, and said with a smile,

"How can you have the leisure to take the children out to fly kites today?"

As he spoke, he also got a bamboo pipe and stirred up the grapes in the wine jar.

This drinking method was invented by Xu Fenglei, and with a swipe, the tip of the tongue can touch the wine first, and can amplify the sweet taste.

It is precisely because of this effect that the method of drinking quickly became popular among the upper circles of Datang, and even Li Er was no exception.

"I've been in a panic for a while, it's rare to have a cool breeze today, and the weather is cool, so naturally I want to let them have fun."

Xu Fenglei responded casually and said with a smile,

"It's the most lively and active age, if you don't let them move, it's not good if they are depressed."

Li Shimin bowed his head slightly and did not refute.

"What's going on in the south study today?"

He looked at Xu Fenglei, his smile narrowed, and asked,

"For no reason, why do you want to fight that Xu Jingzong?"

"Anyway, you are also the prince and master, even if you want to repair people, there is no need to slap people's mouths, right? How rude! ”

"It's like Wei Chigong!"

If Xu Jingzong was here, hearing the emperor's words, it was estimated that he would vomit three liters of blood again!

Good guy, is this the way you ask this question?

"Back to Your Majesty, the minister was unhappy with him, so he gave him a slap in the face."

Xu Feng thunder clouds light wind light road,

"Although this person's knowledge is good, his character is very poor, and the minister doesn't like it."

"Please also ask Your Majesty not to arrange for him to teach in the south study again, if the upper beam is not right, the lower beam will be crooked, if the royal family is bad, it will not be good."

When Li Shimin heard this, he couldn't help but show a hint of surprise.

"Oh? Is there such a thing? ”

He hurriedly asked,

"How do you know that this Xu Jingzong has a very bad character and is a crooked person?"

"Could it be through the art of physiognomy?"

Don't look at the words "face-to-face technique" seem to be a bit frivolous and vain, if it were someone else, Li Shimin would inevitably scoff at it.

But if it's Xu Fenglei......

He believes.

"Yes and no."

Xu Fenglei responded,

"Judging from the physiognomy, this Xu Jingzong Yintang is narrow and there is a shortage of people, this is the appearance of narrow-mindedness."

"His mouth is small, his lips are tight, and his lips are thin, and he must not be able to tolerate people's elegance."

"The nasal bone is slightly protruding and the eyes are white, the Lord has a strong sense of revenge, and he can't see that others are better than himself."

Li Shimin: "......"

Boy!

This batch directly poured people into the stinky ditch!

"In addition, greed for money, lust, cruelty, and ruthlessness, all four of these can be seen in his face."

Xu Fenglei looked at Li Shimin and asked rhetorically,

"You say, such a person is not a villain or a traitor, so who else is?"

Li Shimin touched his chin.

"Didn't you say that a gentleman doesn't care about his deeds?"

He said suddenly,

"Although his face is like this, if he can maintain restraint and not do things that hurt nature and reason...... Doesn't seem to be wrong, right? ”

"Really?"

Xu Fenglei nodded.

"Yes, but that doesn't stop me from hating this guy."

He said as a matter of course,

"Since you see that he's not a good thing, and he bumps into me again, why did I hit him twice to get angry?"

"As for whether Your Majesty retains him or not, it has nothing to do with me, I just need to take care of my own one-third of an acre of land, teach a few children under my door well, and don't be harmed by him."

Li Shimin:"#¥%......&*#@"

What you said makes sense, I'm speechless.

"Okay, okay, you always have the right eye for people, I believe you."

He said helplessly,

"One bite at a time, I've never seen you target a person like this...... If I hadn't dismissed him, wouldn't I have watched the emperors be harmed? ”

"I'll find an opportunity to transfer him...... Since you have evaluated Xu Jingzong, how do you evaluate the two masters of Nanshufang Yu Shinan and Kong Yingda? ”

Speaking of this today, I'll let you have a good review! Look at the few masters I chose for the emperors, how much is it worth in your eyes?

"Okay."

He said briefly,

"Step by step, no merit and no fault."

"It is enough to be an enlightenment teacher for Mengtong, laying a foundation, if you want children to be outstanding and outstanding, it depends on their own talent and creation."

Li Shimin rolled his eyes.

"These two are already the top scholars in my Datang platoon, and now they are mediocre people in your eyes?"

He snorted softly,

"Then tell me, who can take on the important task of teaching and learning, and teach my emperors, including the children of the clan and the nobles, well?"

"Who can?"

"Speaking of which, I have repeatedly asked the ministers to nominate talents, and you have been perfunctory every time, this time I have caught you, you have to recommend a few talents for the court!"

"Otherwise, it is a great crime for you to beat the officials of the imperial court, and I will punish you!"

Xu Fenglei has the ability to meet, but he rarely uses it on weekdays.

This time, if you seize the opportunity, you can get him twice and get some useful information out!

"Uh......"

Xu Fenglei paused slightly, and said without thinking,

"There are really two candidates."

"First, consult the doctor Chu Suiliang; Second, Ma Zhou, a scholar in Chang'an. ”

"These two are both talented people, and if they are allowed to teach, they will be able to give their students personality and let them grow into pillars."

Li Shimin's eyes lit up.

"Chu Suiliang? Yes, this son is indeed a talent! I also intend to cultivate! ”

He rubbed his hands together and nodded,

"And one more ...... Ma Zhou? This name sounds familiar, and I seem to know that there is such a person......"

"Eh, it's weird, why can't you remember?"

Ma Erzi, he clearly had an impression in his mind.

But who is this person...... But I couldn't say it for a while.

"Your Majesty is a noble man who forgets things."

Xu Fenglei pouted and said,

"When the big thing was lifted, this Ma Zhou also played a key role."

"If it weren't for him on Chang He's side, he made suggestions, analyzed the situation, and cooperated with us tacitly, I am afraid that night would have been much more dangerous."

"After the deed was accomplished, he was swept aside in terms of meritorious deeds."

Li Shimin: "?! ”

"Oh yes, yes, yes, yes."

He suddenly realized, and couldn't help complaining,

"Chang He's side, there is such a strategist! I've been so busy in the past two years that I've forgotten about it. ”

"This is often really, why don't you remind me, recommend it; You too, since you know that there is such a talented person next to you, why don't you talk to me, and only say it when you ask today? ”

Xu Fenglei spread his hands.

"There are many things, Your Majesty doesn't talk about them, how can Your Majesty talk about them? Chang He is a rough man, and he will not change his tricks to remind His Majesty. ”

He explains,

"That Ma Zhou is also a madman, he has no reward, and he will not beg him to be an official."

"As for the minister, the minister can't take the initiative to recommend, Ma Zhou is Chang He's doorman, Chang He's identity is sensitive, and the minister is a foreign minister, how can he negotiate too deeply with the doorman of the Janissary Commander? At that time, even if Your Majesty does not suspect it, others will impeach me and sue me for forming a party for personal gain. ”

"I don't want to be splashed with dirty water."

Here, there is a big way!

is wild and wild, it is all flying freely within Li Er's bottom line, wantonly and horizontally.

He will never do anything that touches the bottom line.

Trust this thing, there can't be the slightest crack, once there is a crack, it will be difficult to repair.

"That's right......"

Li Shimin nodded slowly and said hesitantly,

"Okay, I was negligent and forgot about this person, although I have been busy for the past two years, in the final analysis, I still neglected this hero."

"But this Ma Zhou, in the end, is a conspiracy, it doesn't hurt to give a reward, and it doesn't hurt to do it to an official......"

"But now I also understand that educating the heirs is the top priority, can he really teach those emperors of mine well?"

Xu Fenglei glanced at Li Er.

"The minister is also a conspiracy, isn't he also teaching Cheng Qian and Qingque?" He asked rhetorically.

This question made Li Er speechless for a moment.

"Okay! I believe in you and give him a chance. ”

He waved his hand and said,

"After two days, I will summon him into the palace to give it a try, if there is real talent and real learning, I will reuse it!"

Xu Fenglei shrugged.

He just casually recommended it, and what happened in the follow-up depends on Ma Zhou's own performance.

According to historical records, this kid can impress Li Er and call him a genius, so he doesn't have to worry about his career.

This is not the matter at the moment.

"Your Majesty, the minister has something to advise."

His expression was a little more solemn.

"Huh?"

Li Shimin felt the change in Xu Fenglei's expression, involuntarily sat up straight, raised his hand and said,

"It doesn't hurt if you speak up."

This kid rarely puts on such a look...... You can't ask for the whole big one, right?

Just as Li Er was thinking wildly, Xu Fenglei had already taken out a booklet from his arms and said:

"Your Majesty, please take a look at this first."

Li Shimin took it casually and took a look.

"Xuanzang, male ......"

He flipped through two pages at random, and muttered,

"From Chang'an......"

"Hey, what is my way, isn't it just about Xuanzang going abroad? Have you negotiated with him? ”

Xu Fenglei nodded.

"Yes, Xuanzang has agreed to the nine conditions listed by the minister, and is willing to draw the "Western Regions Map".

He answered,

"As long as he brings this map back, there will be no more mystery and haze in the Western Regions in front of His Majesty!"

Syllable!

"Hah, that's a good thing!"

Li Shimin stroked his palms and laughed,

"Now, I'm expecting him to succeed!"

"Don't worry, when I return to the palace later, I will knock down the jade seal, and this document will take effect, Master Xuanzang, even if I am half an envoy of the Tang Dynasty."

As he spoke, he flipped through the booklet and suddenly turned to the last page.

A line of small words caught his eye.

"The Datang Honglu Temple asks all countries to facilitate the passage and necessary assistance for those holding this customs clearance document. Please also bear in mind that no matter where you are in the world, don't be afraid, behind you is His Majesty the Tang Emperor and the powerful Tang Army. ”

"Honglu Temple Qing Tang Jian."

After Li Shimin finished reading it, he raised his head suddenly, and said in surprise,

"It's very domineering! This is Tang Jianjia? You add it! ”

Tang Jian's temperament, Li Er still understands it, so it is impossible to write such a thing.

"It's from the minister."

Xu Fenglei admitted,

"These words can not only give confidence to the Tang people who are in the foreign domain, but also deter those foreign Xiaoxiao, so that they dare not think crookedly about the Tang people who are traveling abroad, as long as they dare to harm the Tang people, what awaits them is the Tianwei of the Tang Army!"

"Danger to the foreign, although there are not many words in this line, it can also make the Tang people rely on this!"

"The stronger the Tang Dynasty, the more holy Your Majesty is, and the stronger the deterrent power of this line of words!"

After hearing these words, Li Shimin's expression was also a little excited.

He read it several times, and kept reciting it silently several times, and couldn't help but clap his hands and praise:

"Good!"

"It's so well written, and it's so well said!"

"Every Tang person is a citizen of me, and no matter where they are, they deserve to be respected, because they have my protection!"

"Even if he is far away in a foreign country, I can protect him!"

"It's good, it's good! I'm going to want to sign my name here! Hahaha...... Sign the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty - Li Shimin! ”

Xu Fenglei smiled.

Don't worry.

The Tang Emperor is nothing, and when you become a heavenly khan, I am afraid it will be more golden.
