Living Leisurely in Tang Dynasty

Li Yuanying gathered a crowd to study for many days, and was finally noticed by His Majesty Li Er. His Majesty Li Er looked for Li Yuanying and asked him what he was doing.

Hearing the questioning tone of Li Er's Majesty, Li Yuanying felt aggrieved: "Should I not be allowed to take pheasant slaves to study?"

His Majesty Li Er looked at him suspiciously, thinking that he was not just reading books.

Li Yuanying told His Majesty Li Er about his plan to accompany him on the test, saying that the brother of his sister-in-law was a manufacturable at first sight, and he decided to take him as a key training object. How can there be no setbacks on the way to growth? He wants to take the pheasant and them to accompany the test, who will be embarrassed when the test is bad, and he will definitely be inspired by this and work hard!

His Majesty Li Er said: "I think you just hate others for taking your sister away and not letting her play with you."

Li Yuanying said: "Am I such a stingy person?"

His Majesty Li Er squinted at him, meaning "you are such a stingy person".

Li Yuanying said, "Brother Emperor, do you think this method is bad?"

His Majesty Li Er said: "The method is good." Thinking that this younger brother had been scolded by everyone for being inexperienced two years ago, and now he has the confidence to compare with Wei Yin, who is two years older, his Majesty Li Er nodded. , "Okay, you can go back to study, but don't count down by yourself when the time comes."

This matter can be regarded as the consent of His Majesty Li Er.

Li Yuanying is the best at holding chicken feathers as an arrow. His Majesty Li Er nodded his head, and he went to discuss with Kong Yingda about taking Wei Shu, Chengyang and Li Zhi with them after returning to Beijing.

Kong Yingda was very dissatisfied with this kind of mischief. The Imperial College is the highest institution of the Tang Dynasty, so how could this kid be so mischievous. He twisted his eyebrows and said, "How can there be such nonsense?!"

Li Yuanying said, "Brother Huang said, "If there is anything wrong, just give me more papers?" He snorted unhappily. Rarely, I will open a large academy by myself in the future!"

Kong Yingda was furious, and snorted coldly: "When I was young, I was screaming about opening a college, so don't mislead the children."

Li Yuanying didn't persuade at all, she blocked it on the spot and went back: "The college I opened will definitely not be like yours at the Imperial College. I don't even dare to let others take a test."

Kong Yingda said: "Okay, come to the test if you want, don't even answer the questions at that time."

Li Yuanying climbed up the pole and wrote the test list to Kong Yingda directly.

Kong Yingda accepted the list and asked Li Yuanying to leave quickly, lest he looked at him and wanted to beat him up.

Li Yuanying's goal was achieved and ran away happily.

Kong Yingda was agitated by Li Yuanying and immediately asked someone to copy a few book lists and sent them to his disciples, asking them to come up with some difficult topics from the books on the book list. At that time, he picked the most difficult combination. Use them as exam questions to test these guys who don't know the heights of the sky. See if they can be so proud then!

After Kong Yingda gave orders, he was still a little unwilling to go to the patriarch of these guys, Li Er, hoping that Li Er would take care of them, and don't let them treat all the places in the world as a place for play.

His Majesty Li Er said: "Since the Imperial College has the rules of the Imperial College, then follow the rules of the Imperial College."

Kong Yingda was taken aback, and he hesitated to ask her Majesty Li Er: "Your Majesty means that if they pass the exam, let them study at the Imperial College?"

His Majesty Li Er said: "That's natural. Since they feel they can't learn anything in the palace, let them go to the Imperial College to learn something. When they can get out of the exam, you can let them out again, Kong Qing. "

When you study at the Imperial College, you will have all the food, clothing, housing, and transportation provided by the Imperial College, but the conditions are definitely not as good as those in the palace, and you don’t even have to think about such a good thing as having a room and someone waiting nearby.

Last year, the Imperial College expanded its enrollment and recruited a group of unmanageable dudes, but Kong Yingda was upset. From time to time, he would ask His Majesty Li Er to complain, saying that these people are not easy to manage, and all of them ignore the guidelines of the Imperial College and often go home. Said that he also bought the underprivileged supervising students to take care of their daily lives. You arrested the current and said that they should be punished. They all said they were voluntary. You can't find a reason to punish them. Isn't it allowed for classmates to help each other?

Kong Yingda understood Li Er's intention when he heard the words of his Majesty Li Er: His Majesty Li Er attaches great importance to the Imperial College, and naturally it is impossible to let it become a game place for the children of the aristocracy. If the younger brother and son of Li Er were put in and treated them equally, the other dudes would definitely not dare to make a fuss. No matter how good your dad is, can he be better than his majesty today?

Kong Yingda immediately said: "Your Majesty is wise." After he finished speaking, he thought that there were three other girls on the list, Wei Shu, Princess Chengyang, and Wu Mei, a former martial artist. Kong Yingda asked what Li Er's Majesty meant, "Should Chengyang Princesses be treated equally?"

His Majesty Li Er said: "I remember that the princes and daughters of Silla are also studying at the Imperial College. If they can really pass the exam, you can arrange them with the princes of Silla."

Silla is now the Queen in power, and the head of those sent to study in Datang is the Queen's cousin, Jin Shengman. When Jin Shengman fought to enter the Imperial College, it naturally caused a lot of controversy, and finally succeeded in enrolling because of her reasoned struggle. Now he has been studying in the Imperial College for more than a year. Jin Shengman was clever and studious, and he was still speechless when he came. Now he can basically read through the texts of the Tang Dynasty. Even Kong Yingda has to admit that this foreign king and daughter is very smart.

Silla's princes can go and listen, but the princesses of Tang Dynasty can't.

As for Wei Shu and Wu Mei, they should be accompanied.

Kong Yingda wanted to administer the imperial court of the country and the family of children who were about to occupy the land as the king, so he did not argue with His Majesty Li Er, but directly accepted the proposal of His Majesty Li Er. Anyway, it's still a problem whether they can pass the exam. It's okay to discuss the matter after they pass the exam!

The monarch and his subjects agreed, and after Kong Yingda went back, he changed the arrangement of the questions. Since Li Yuanying and Li Zhikeng are to be regarded as "remediation benchmarks" in the Imperial College, the subject should not be too difficult. It is enough to intersect them with a few difficult problems. In the end, they will have to pass the test.

After that, every time Kong Yingda saw Li Yuanying come to ask questions, he was very patient, only to teach him as his nephew.

Li Yuanying always felt weird, and murmured to Li Zhi: "I feel that Lao Kong wants to yin me."

Li Zhi didn't feel that anything was wrong: "Kong Jijiu has always been like this, and Kong Jijiu used to be nice to us!"

Li Yuanying said, "That's for you."

Li Zhi told the truth: "If you weren't always angry with them, Kong Jijiu wouldn't always scold you."

Li Yuanying thought about it and felt that what Li Zhi said was reasonable. Maybe Kong Yingda saw that he was so studious recently, and his attitude has changed so much. There is no need to make a fuss. He quickly left behind the strangeness at the beginning, and took Wei Shu and the others to read and play for a long time every day, and from time to time to stimulate Wei Ying, saying, "We have finished reading so and so, where do you see? "That made Wei Yin choose a lamp every night to read, for fear that he would really be compared with Li Yuanying, the little prince who he once looked down on and felt unlearned!

In the blink of an eye, in the middle of May, Tai Shiling observed that there was a star guilty at night. In layman's terms, the broom star appeared, which was unlucky. Tai Shi Ling thought about it and said that it was against the fate of the Taishan Conferred Zen, which was set last month, and hoped that His Majesty Li Er would not go to Mount Tai to engage in Zen Zen next year next year.

Li Yuanying didn't go to court, of course he didn't know that His Majesty Li Er would go to Mount Tai to play tomorrow. It was said that a broom star appeared last night, and he was quite sorry that he slept too dead at night and didn't see the legendary broom star. He announced that he would not go to school today, and everyone would go to Li Chunfeng to learn about the comet, mainly wanting to hear what the legendary broom star looked like from Li Chunfeng's mouth.

Li Chunfeng specializes in this. Of course, he came to a group of small turnip head science comets. He told Li Yuanying and the others all the comet records from ancient times to the present, and he also painted them with naked eyes.

Li Yuanying listened with gusto.

Then he learned from Li Chunfeng's "disaster theory" that many theories love to mention. The "disasters" in the theory of catastrophes include insects, epidemics, water, drought, etc., and "disasters" include solar eclipses, lunar eclipses, and meteorites. , Comets, etc. According to Confucian theory, the appearance of this kind of celestial phenomenon or this kind of disaster is a very serious "scourge", so the court has to take some countermeasures to prevent the people from panic.

Generally speaking, the so-called countermeasures are the emperor's reflection on himself or Zaifu's resignation or something. This time it's okay. There is something ready to do: I won't go to Mount Tai to engage in meditation next year.

Li Yuanying felt unhappy when he heard this. He had also read these things from history books before, but he didn't care much. He remembered it was written in the history books that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty would go to Mount Tai for a walk almost every five years after he engaged in Fengchan.

Now his emperor brother has been on the throne for fifteen years, and he has never been to Taishan once! The most important thing is that he has not been to Taishan since he was born.

Li Yuanying was disappointed: "Then I really won't be able to go to Mount Tai next year?"

Li Chunfeng said: "Tai Shiling has already written a letter, and other courtiers should also dissuade them from now on."

Li Chunfeng analyzed the reasons for Li Yuanying: Although the Tang Dynasty established a country for more than 20 years, although the people have been rehabilitated and recuperated, the treasury has not been fully filled, and it is far from the wealth of the Sui Dynasty. As today, most of the wealth is still gathered in the hands of aristocratic families from all over the world, and the imperial court is unable to do anything it wants to do. Under such circumstances, Wei Zheng and the others are unwilling to use their teachers to mobilize the crowd to engage in Zen.

In short, the court has no money, and the court is short of money, so everyone does not support Li Erbi going down to Mount Tai.

Li Yuanying was secretly speechless after hearing this: "So the emperor is so poor."

Li Zhidao: "It's not that the father is poor, but the court has too many things to do."

Li Yuanying didn't care what the court was going to do. Li Yuanying only cared about whether he could go to Mount Tai. He said: "When I sell the tea, I will lend the money to the emperor brother, and let the emperor brother take me to Mount Tai to play!"

Li Zhi reminded him: "Your fief is not far from Mount Tai, then you can go and play as many times as you like."

Li Yuanying recalled that Mount Tai was to the east, and his fiefdom Tengzhou was also to the east. It was indeed not far away! Li Yuanying retorted without any psychological pressure: "Then I won't borrow!" His emperor brother is so treacherous, what if he borrows the money and never returns?

Li Zhi was speechless for a while.

That evening, Si Zi sold Li Yuanying and Li Zhi unsuspectingly. She first talked to His Majesty Li Er about the astronomy knowledge she learned from Li Chunfeng, and then told His Majesty Li Yuanying’s conversation between them: "Uncle Yao originally said to lend you money to go to Mount Tai to play, but the emperor brother Saying that Tengzhou is very close to Mount Tai, Uncle Yao said no more!"

Since learning about the comet, His Majesty Li Er has been in a bad mood, and no one mentions his face. But Sizi is different. Sizi is his favorite daughter. He didn't feel angry when he heard it. He only looked at Li Yuanying, who was feasting on the side, raised his eyebrows and said, "It's not something a man should do if he wants to borrow. "

Li Yuanying put down his chopsticks and retorted with reason and reason: "I only have this little money now. It is a drop in the money for you, Brother Huang, so you should not borrow it for now!" He was very concerned to pack the tickets for His Majesty Li Er. "Brother Huang, don’t worry. When I go to the fief, I’ll fix a road from Chang’an to Mount Tai as soon as possible, and build a comfortable residence for you along the way. You will be allowed to visit Mount Tai without spending a penny from the national treasury. Don’t say go, you want to go every year!"

His Majesty Li Er said: "Okay, I can remember what you said. If you can't do it then, I will cure you of the crime of deceiving the king and throw you to Yazhou."

Li Yuanying turned around and asked Li Zhi: "Where is Yazhou?"

Li Zhi thought for a while, and replied: "On the southernmost island, across the sea from Lingnan Road to the north, and Jiaozhou across the sea to the west, there are seas everywhere, far away from Chang'an."

Li Yuanying nodded her head enthusiastically, and said enthusiastically to Her Majesty Li Er: "Sounds fun, just throw me away! Don't worry, when I live there, some big ships will be built around the coast and back to the north. I will come back to see you in ten or eight years."

His Majesty Li Er cursed: "Aren't you going to accompany someone to take the Imperial Examination? When you are full, go to read a book."

Li Yuanying took Li Zhi and the others away, and she still muttered to Li Zhi when she went out the door: "It was not what I said to go, but he himself said he wanted to let me pass, and became angry. It's really moody, no wonder people would say 'A companion is like a tiger'!"

Li Zhi: "..."

The author has something to say:

Li Zhi: Do you have no points in your heart?

Little Prince: No!
