You can say it without hesitation.

Whether it is Fang Xuanling or Changsun Wuji, they themselves know that their way of educating their sons is extremely failed.

How much failure has reached? It is almost the case that everyone shakes their heads in Chang'an.

Therefore, now that the child is a little older, they shook their heads in their hearts, but they can't control it anymore. Even if they want to control it, Changsun Wuji couldn't bear it. As for Fang Xuanling, he was helpless and had no qualifications to control it!

Li Shimin took out the prince's memorial, and the two couldn't help but feel a little panicked.

To be honest, one of them is the prime minister and the other is the Minister of Personnel. They can't know the virtues of their son.

The key to being self-aware. For such virtues, the best way is not to let them get involved in any important person!

If these two guys were just doing whatever they were doing in Chang'an on weekdays, even if they did something unscrupulous, they could still be suppressed by the power of the Fang family and the Changsun family.

But now the prince asked them to read with him, which... is a bit of a trick.

In fact, they are usually worried about their children dating the prince. In fact, who doesn’t want their son to be close to the prince early? But at least not now. The prince is still too young now. If these two dogs bring the prince to ruin it, they are just like them. They only know how to fight dogs. Fang Yiai is only eight years old, so he sneaks into the brothel, saying that I just look at it. What would happen if the prince was pulled away?

But the prince actually took the initiative to submit a memorial to these two dogs to read together. Fang Xuanling and Changsun Wuji were now confused and did not take the initiative to fight for the same thing, but the benefit of sending it to him was more difficult. He thought that this might be helpful to his children, but he also had many doubts.

So after a moment of silence, Fang Xuanling said awkwardly: "Your Majesty, Yi Ai is still too young and ignorant. If you go to the East Palace to study..."

Li Shimin took a sip of tea and smiled: "It is because I am still young that I asked them to study with me in the East Palace. Otherwise, you will not be able to control me. If you learn bad things, what will happen in the future? I grew up watching Erai Love. This kid is a bit naughty and should take care of it."

Fang Xuanling had a stern face and said to himself, "Your Majesty, this is what you said by yourself, it's not what I said, so he didn't say anything."

Changsun Wuji had countless thoughts in his mind. After a long time, he said: "What Your Majesty said makes sense, but... I think..."

Obviously, Changsun Wuji's struggle is useless...

Li Shimin interrupted him and said, "Okay. You don't have to worry. This is the prince's desirability. They were playmates at the beginning, but since I ascended the throne, Chengqian became the prince, and became unfamiliar. This is not good. I and Wuji have also known each other since childhood."

Li Shimin said generously: "I have decided on this matter, so it's decided."

Changsun Wuji felt relieved. Anyway, this is what you do, Your Majesty, and if something happens, it will not be blamed on me.

Fang Xuanling also breathed a sigh of relief. Anyway, it was His Majesty who made the decision. If the tigress at home wanted to show his power, it would be impossible for me to blame him.

So the three of them served tea, and Li Shimin immediately said, "I have become more and more important in the past few years. After thinking about it, the most important thing is to recruit talents. Chen Zhengtai previously submitted a memorial saying that the imperial examination needs to be changed, and talents must be selected from various places to conduct unified examinations. All examinations also need to be unified, and they cannot be both Ming Jing, Jinshi, and scholar. I have thought about it. This is the reason, so Fang Qing will come up with a charter."

Fang Xuanling knew what Your Majesty meant. The imperial examination was to be changed now, and the essence was to continue the idea of ​​Yangzhou's new policy.

In other words, after the new Yangzhou policy, the attitude towards the aristocratic races began to change.

So, how can we tolerate children of aristocratic clans who want to be officials like before?

But if you want to suppress the aristocratic races, the best way is to conduct unified examinations and recruit more talents through the imperial examinations.

Of course, this approach may cause complaints from the aristocratic races, but there shouldn't be too many complaints.

Because in the past, talents were almost recommended by aristocratic races, or the number of places for the imperial examinations was recommended by them.

But in the future, even if the court focuses more on imperial examinations and officials in the future, aren’t people who know the literature and verbal words still these aristocratic families? It’s just that the rules of the game have changed, and the others have not changed.

Fang Xuanling received the order and said, "I obey the order."

Li Shimin glanced at him and said seriously: "Only by focusing on the imperial examination can we consolidate the foundation of the country, and you should not underestimate it."

Fang Xuanling understood this light sentence.

Your Majesty actually linked the imperial examination with the national foundation, which... means that the weight of the imperial examination in Your Majesty's heart is no longer as good as before.

He nodded and began to plan in his heart.

The two of them left, and Li Shimin was still drinking tea. He was waiting for Fang Xuanling to send the charter, saying that it was to ask Fang Xuanling to draft the charter. It was better to test the attitudes of all officials. After all, Fang Xuanling was the prime minister. Once the charter was to be drafted, he would have to discuss with the ministers of various ministries.

After these discussions, the inner thoughts of the officials can be reflected.

At this time, Zhang Qianshe stepped in and said, "Your Majesty, Chen Zhan is looking for a meeting."

Li Shimin's face calmed down a little, and he smiled and said, "Call it."

Chen Zhengtai rushed into the hall, bowed to Li Shimin, and said, "My teacher's complexion is much better than before. From a distance, he can be said to be full of heroic attitude..."

Li Shimin smiled and said, "Don't talk about this, don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for no reason."

Chen Zhengtai laughed: "There are things that are happening, but they are all small things. The main thing is to visit the teacher. If you don't see your teacher this day, you feel like you are living a day like the year."

Li Shimin was in a good mood and asked him to sit down and Zhang Qian to pour tea.

The master and apprentice ate the tea delivered from Chen Zhengtai's house. Chen Zhengtai coughed and said, "In fact, in addition to visiting his mentor, the student came here to agree to the matter. The prince's reign was very smooth this time, and all the officials and ministers in the court said that the prince was safe."

Li Shimin snorted coldly in his heart, "What's going on? As for safety, there is no question. Are you Chen Zhengtai really stupid or fake stupid?"

In fact, all the officials did express their recognition of the prince, but they are scholars, and scholars speak in a turn, and they praise them on the surface, but add a word and a word missing, which may have a different meaning.

Therefore, there are many people who have spears and sticks in their words, but those who are interested can figure it out. When ordinary people hear it, they only think that the prince is really praised by the court and will be the king of the king in the future.

Li Shimin said: "Not all the officials and ministers in the court are praising him. He is the crown prince. Who dares to say that he is bad? Even if there are flaws, who dares to point them out directly? You don't have to speak up for him. My son, my heart is like a mirror."

Chen Zhengtai smiled dryly and said, "After this time, the students still felt that the prince should read more books. The so-called "not reading can't understand the truth, not reading can't be clear, not reading can't be clear."

Li Shimin naturally agreed with this and nodded: "He has been exposed to some worldly affairs, so it's better to read some books. Is it still lacking great scholars in the Zhanshi Mansion?"

"No shortage." Chen Zhengtai said seriously: "It's just that the students thought that if the prince was just studying in the Zhanshi Mansion, it would be of no use. It would be better to go to the Royal Erpigou University. After all, the atmosphere in the school is good and there are classmates, which aroused the prince's competitive spirit. In addition, the prince is a lively person. In the past, in the Zhanshi Mansion, those great scholars and doctors in front of him all day long, how could they learn it? But it would be different when they entered the school."

Li Shimin thoughtfully said, "Is that true? But if something goes wrong when I go to school, I will only ask you."

"Students should bear the consequences." Chen Zhengtai patted his chest and promised.

If it were other emperors, it would naturally be a joke.

But it was different when it came to Li Shimin. In fact, how the royal family educated has always been a difficult problem. There are a large group of great scholars around the princes, but how many people have truly become talented.

Li Shimin did not rely on royal education, and was more or less resistant to this method.

Now that he heard Chen Zhengtai mention this, Li Shimin thought for a while and said, "Then why not give it a try, what else is there?"

Obviously, for Li Shimin, Chen Zhengtai must have something to say.

Chen Zhengtai shook his head and said, "Mr., nothing is wrong."

Li Shimin: “…”

Seeing that Chen Zhengtai was about to say goodbye, Li Shimin felt that it was not a solution to hold it in such a situation, so he simply said: "I heard that you want Princess Sui'an's princess's mansion to be moved to the desert to build it."

“Yes, the student mentioned it.”

Li Shimin frowned and said, "Why is this?"

Chen Zhengtai's face was very calm. He knew that Li Shimin was observing him carefully, so he was like nothing happened: "Princess Sui'an was willing to serve his mentor. She often said that her body and hair were all under the mentor. If she could share the worries of her mentor, she would be willing to die even if she died. There was a princess going out to the frontier to marry, but if she could guard the northern border for the Tang Dynasty..."

When Li Shimin heard this, he didn't check and rolled his eyes.

Isn’t this clearly what you taught?

Princess Sui'an cannot deceive people. How can I not see what she will say?

Li Shimin was too lazy to talk to him again and waved his hand and said, "You don't have to say this, I just want to know, what do you think?"

"Student?" Chen Zhengtai was stunned.

Li Shimin nodded and said, "After you say that, I won't blame you."

Chen Zhengtai said: "It is said that the king dies in the country, and the heavenly family is selfless. What the students think is that since the Han Dynasty, since the Han Dynasty, they have to bury themselves in a military key after their death, hoping to borrow their own tombs to protect the safety of the country. So, is my Tang Dynasty not as good as Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty? Princess Sui'an's move is worthy of praise."

The allusion mentioned by Chen Zhengtai is actually that when Emperor Gaozu of Han, Liu Bang, chose the tomb, set the Changling in a military situation.

Ordinary people choose to choose a tomb for themselves and auspicious Feng Shui, but Liu Bang is different. He chose to regard his Changling as a fortress.

In fact, this is understandable. After all, the tombs of the emperor are extremely expensive. In addition to the underground palace, the buildings on the ground are also amazing.

After the construction of the tomb and the burial of Emperor Gaozu of Han, a large number of guards were needed to guard the tomb in order to protect the safety of the tomb.

Therefore, there is a huge advantage in choosing Changling in Chang'an, which is to spend a cent to accomplish two things.

We must also send troops to guard the battle, so why not set it on the front line of the Huns’ invasion?

Once the Huns invade and enter Guanzhong, the first thing they have to face is not Chang'an City, but Changling, a military fortress.

In this way, after the death of Emperor Gaozu of Han, he could also use himself as a barrier to protect the safety of his descendants.

Of course, he probably didn't expect that he had a great-grandson after that, who went out of the desert and beat the Huns a few times. The threat from the north was probably lifted.

So his Changling changed from a fortress to the hinterland of the Han Dynasty.

Obviously, Chen Zhengtai's words were unexpected by Li Shimin. He said thoughtfully: "Can a mere princess's mansion also have the effect of Changling?"

Chen Zhengtai smiled and said, "Students think that as long as they have money, it's fine, but if the princess's mansion is not built there, who dares to invest money?"

Li Shimin was full of doubts for a moment. He pondered for a moment before saying, "How to choose a location?"

Obviously, he also wanted to give it a try, and the Tang Dynasty also wanted to treat this desert as its hinterland.

Although this seems to be an unfinished task, any emperor has such an impulse to eliminate border troubles forever, which is almost everyone's dream.

Moreover, even if it is created and there is real danger, it is enough to simply abandon it.

Chen Zhengtai said, "I have to ask Princess Sui'an this."

Li Shimin sneered: "Don't you just ask her if you ask?"

"Oh." Chen Zhengtai said in a squish manner: "That teacher said this will ruin the students, students..."
