Chapter 94: Expanding Confucianism

Li Mu came back in the middle of the night, so he didn't bother the two girls. He found a room to sleep with himself. When he woke up the next day, it was already midnight. Ju Xian'er sat next to him and saw him awake, and asked, "Your Highness Ele.me, I'll ask someone to prepare what you want to eat."

"Where is Tan'er?" Li Mu glanced at him and didn't see Su Tan'er, so he asked casually.

"She is guiding Li Tai to approve memorials." Ju Xian'er said with a smile. Li Mu showed a surprised expression. Ju Xian'er nodded, and Li Mu laughed.

Good brother, accept your sister-in-law's sanctions.

Under Ju Xian'er's service, Li Mu put on his clothes, looked at the sun and was almost noon, and said, "Cook more dishes that I usually like, call Qingque over, let's have a meal together."

"Okay, I'll make arrangements now." Ju Xian'er nodded and got up to prepare. Li Mu came to the table, picked up a pen and wrote a few words. The rice paper was automatically folded into a kite, and flew out with its wings.

After a while, Kong Yingda from the Imperial College received the Chicken, opened it and looked at it, showing joy, and then disappeared from the spot.

...

The imperial kitchen was preparing meals very quickly. After about half an hour, eight dishes were placed on the table, all of which Li Mu usually ate. Li Tai appeared in front of Li Mu with two panda eyes, his steps were as if he had not been asleep for three days. Su Tan'er looked dissatisfied and walked behind him with his shoulders in his arms, glaring at him from time to time, looking unhappy.

"Emperor brother," Li Tai bowed his hand to see him. Li Mu nodded and signaled him to sit down, saying, "There is no need to do anything like this, it's too much trouble."

"Your brother Yu can do it, just do his best." Li Tai opened his mouth and wanted to speak but stopped. Li Mu pretended not to see it and said to Su Tan'er: "If you have nothing to do, go and play with Gao Yang and the others. Don't disturb Qingque. Those memorials are national affairs. Can you understand?"

"It's better to understand than him!" Su Tan'er said dissatisfiedly: "Your brother is just a noble young man. He thinks everything he thinks is self-righteous. It's not realistic at all. Do he know what the people think?"

"No, he doesn't know, you know?" Li Mu put on a stance and said. Before he could continue, Li Tai interrupted: "Emperor Brother, I really have shortcomings. Thanks to the reminder of my sister-in-law, there was no big trouble. I am ashamed, ashamed."

"Oh, have you really given some useful opinions?" Li Mu looked at him with admiration, and the grievance on Su Tan'er's face was instantly replaced by "Personality". He said: "Our family is a scholarly family. My father visits villages around Chang'an City every year, and I will follow him. Although he goes less, he has more knowledge than you princes who don't leave the palace."

"That's right." Li Mu nodded and said, "Qingque, since you feel you are not enough, you should go out for a walk when you have time, and it's better to learn more about the people."

"Yes." Li Tai seemed to have received a lot of setbacks in his heart, and he only cared about eating and stopped talking.

Seeing him like this, Li Mu glared at Su Tan'er, who stuck out his tongue and stopped showing off.

"In recent days, I may have been busy with some things. If you don't go back to the palace occasionally, don't worry. I have the protection of Master Li and Master Yuan by my side, so there will be no problems."

Su Tan'er and Ju Xian'er responded. Li Tai looked up at Li Mu, still looking at him but still stopped. In the end, he didn't say anything and sighed and continued to cook the rice.

"But the matter is about to be resolved, don't worry, there will be no big trouble."

Li Mu was afraid that the child would be too impressed, so he gave him a reassurance. Sure enough, when he heard this, Li Tai's eyes changed and he was no longer so despair. Li Mu nodded at him, and Li Tai finally showed an ugly smile.

After dinner, Li Mu told Su Tan'er that he would pay homage to Empress Changsun and not disturb Li Tai anymore. Only then did he save his good brother. Otherwise, he would have another afternoon, he would be afraid that Li Tai's confidence would collapse and he would doubt his life.

After leaving the palace gate, Kong Yingda was already waiting early. Li Mu got on the carriage he prepared, Kong Yingda drove himself, and the master and apprentice arrived at the Imperial College.

After entering the door, he walked straight to the place where the statue of Kong Sheng was stored, and Li Mu got out of the car. There were about fifty people standing at the door with his hands behind his back, his expression a little nervous.

When they saw Li Mu coming, the crowd was a little turbulent. But it soon became quiet, because Kong Yingda had said before that when he worshiped Confucius, he had to be pious and calm, otherwise it would be impossible for him to fail. They all spent a lot of money and had to get on the bus. If they missed the talent because they talked too much, they would not regret it and not say it, the money would not be refunded.

"Everyone." Li Mu came to everyone and said, "I won't say much nonsense. There is no crown prince of the Tang Dynasty in front of Confucius today, and I am just a Confucian disciple. My disciple Kong Yingda should have explained it to you. Let me emphasize one more thing, Master said, there is no difference. Therefore, I have provided this opportunity for you. Most of you are not convenient to participate in the imperial examination and cannot obtain a literary position. This is an exception and is also your only opportunity to participate in the study of Confucianism. Let me ask myself, are you willing to enter the Confucian wall and become a Confucian disciple?"

"We are willing." Everyone said in a voice.

Li Mu smiled and said, "I don't care if I have sincerity or not. If I bow to Confucius later, Confucius will be able to distinguish. Let's make it clear first, and everyone has only one chance. If you can't gain talent, reflect on yourself. Confucius will not target anyone, and no one is worthy of Confucius."

Everyone said it was.

Li Mu nodded to Kong Yingda, and Kong Yingda whispered loudly: "Every time, five people are in, the time limit is one quarter of an hour. Click the name to enter, and the others sit on the ground, don't talk."

Then Kong Yingda sang the title, and Li Mu also sat cross-legged on the ground, closed his eyes and entered the system.

The Kong Sheng statue was created by Li Mu himself. Its function is similar to a scanner, which can show the "real talent and knowledge" of a person who failed. What books have you read and what matters have you studied are clear at a glance and very clear.

What Li Mu needs to do is to eliminate some waste and people who are too involved in major families. Although he has instructed Kong Yingda to filter it out, Kong Yingda himself is also a member of the aristocratic family. If he asks him to do so, he cannot give him any face.

You can give face, but if Confucius does not give you mercy and does not give you talent, then there is nothing you can do.

After a while, the first five people came out. Except for one unlucky guy who didn't get talent, the other four got talent, like a child who got a new toy, they tried the mystery of Confucianism and kept asking around Kong Yingda.
