Chapter 81: One of the Nine Scholars

Li Shimin's words were inevitably a bit showing off.

Aren’t your Lu family inheriting poetry and books?

Why didn’t you see a Jinshi at home?

I am different. My disciples can easily teach nine Jinshi.

The expression on Lu Chengqing's face was extremely wonderful, and it was hard to say for a moment. He was probably scolding Li Erlang for being a bad person, but he was the emperor after all. Under power, he had to stammer: "Your Majesty is wise."

"The wise and wise are not right." Li Shimin said with a gaze: "It's just that I have something to do with poetry and calligraphy. It's just that I am the emperor and work hard on national affairs. This kind of classical poetry and calligraphy learning is not the right way after all. If I have the opportunity, I will let my disciples discuss with you."

Chen Zhengtai: "…"

Wori, I can only copy poems.

Chen Zhengtai immediately said: "As my teacher said, it is important to do things and books in the scriptures, poetry and books are not as pragmatic as building a business. If the teacher is like this, students should follow them step by step. If the county magistrate has such a good mood, I think... I might as well discuss with my nine disciples."

Lu Chengqing: “…”

He couldn't speak for a moment. The inheritance of poetry and books was the most proud face of the Lu family in Fanyang. Now that His Majesty and Chen Zhengtai sang together, the inheritance of poetry and books seemed to have become a vulgar thing.

But he had no power to refute because... he won nine Jinshi in one fell swoop, and he said that passing on poetry and books is a little trick, which is modest.

Li Shimin's smile on his face lasted for a long time. He had not been so happy for a long time.

In the past, these aristocratic families thought that the Li family was born in a military family in Guanzhong and looked down upon them. They claimed that they had continued their blood by studying and were extremely arrogant. Now... I have also passed on poetry and books to their family.

He said happily: "I wrote an inscription for the Royal Erpigou Academy to ask my disciple Chen Zhengtai to teach some poetry and calligraphy methods to educate the world. This poetry and calligraphy method requires both hard work and practice, and also needs to be inspired by emotions. Just like when I write poetry, I just feel it, never sit and discuss the truth, and I will study and ponder the words and sentences all day long, hahaha... Okay, let's not talk about these, today's imperial examination has gained a lot of talents for me. In a few days, I will summon the candidates of all subjects to personally take the exam for their talents."

He held his hands behind his back, and the ministers were silent at this time, and they could not make any sounds.

Li Shimin looked happy and said, "You don't have any jokes, I still remember the bet with Chen Zhengtai! Chen Zhengtai... I will now order you to be the prince's servant, and then go to Erpigou to set up the military mansion, set up the Erpigou Cavalry Mansion, and make Chen Zhengtai the General of the Cavalry."

Li Shimin was very happy. The prince's servant was an official in the Eastern Palace. Obviously... Li Shimin loved the prince at this time and had high hopes for Li Chengqian. Chen Zhengtai was his disciple. It was obviously Li Shimin's plan to ask Chen Zhengtai to assist the prince.

As for the establishment of the Cavalry Mansion, it was obviously Li Shimin's careful consideration.

The Cavalry Mansion was a continuation of the Sui Dynasty's military system. At this time, the Tang Dynasty established more than 700 Cavalry Mansions of all sizes in the world. Each Cavalry Mansion established a Cavalry General. It can be said that... The Cavalry General was not valuable, but Li Shimin established a new military mansion in Erpigou. Obviously... gave Chen Zhengtai the right to train soldiers in Erpigou. This was Li Shimin's consideration. To a certain extent, Chen Zhengtai was asked to train guards and protect the royal property of Erpigou.

Li Shimin thought to himself and thought to himself that Chen Zhengtai is still young, but... he is almost the age to marry. I have so many daughters, but unfortunately Princess Changle has already made an engagement with Changsun Wuji's son, and other beloved daughters... Although Princess Gaoyang is still young, she has not been betrothed to anyone after all. Chen Zhengtai... is extremely talented, why do I value it because I am not as good as today...

But when Chen Zhengtai saw Li Shimin hesitating, he was like a worm in his stomach, and suddenly thought of something terrible...

Chen Zhengtai made a quick decision and immediately said: "The teacher is very kind, and the students are unforgettable. What kind of virtue and ability of the students? They have not made a contribution, but have obtained such a high official and generous salary, and they are uneasy in their hearts..."

His call made Li Shimin temporarily give up his thoughts and just looked at Chen Zhengtai with a smile. Although Bai Yan's profit was gone for three months, the Supreme Emperor was afraid that he would be wronged and wronged, but he was still particularly happy today. He looked around and said to the people: "This is my tiger."

But at this time... many people lost their minds for a moment.

Royal Erpigou University is really terrifying.

How did Chen Zhengtai train it... There is such a terrifying thing in the world...

And... in this way, Your Majesty has a great reliance on Erpigou University. In the future, these Jinshi who took the imperial examination will be...the future is bright!

For any family, successors are the most core issue.

For example, the Chen family in Mengjin was once prominent in the Eastern Han Dynasty and Wei and Jin Dynasties, and many fascinating people appeared, but what happened later... the children were all useless and their families were in decline. Unexpectedly, the Chen family produced a Chen Zhengtai, and now there are signs of restoration and revitalization.

It is everyone's thought to hope that their children will become successful. Only if their children are successful can the family continue.

Therefore, in order to cultivate children, the aristocratic races invested almost all resources, but... although there were many outstanding people, there were inevitably a few prodigal things like Chen Zhengtai's father, his grandfather, and his great-grandfather, so some people couldn't help but think about it... Perhaps...

At this moment, Li Shimin said again: "Okay, today's lively, everyone and I have seen it, haha..."

He thought that there were still many major national affairs to deal with, and was planning to set off and return to Korea.

At this time... Chen Zhengtai said: "Mr...."

Li Shimin turned around and looked at Chen Zhengtai with a smile: "What's the matter if you love disciple?"

It sounds quite stingy, well... I need to write down this sentence and leave it to Hao Chujun, Li Yifu and others in the future.

Chen Zhengtai said: "Have you forgotten about our bet?"

"There is another one?" Li Shimin was stunned.

He just deliberately changed his bet, hoping to cheat some money from Chen Zhengtai.

There is no way, it’s not that I’m not honest, but that a penny stumped the hero.

Besides, I have improved my reward for Chen Zhengtai. Although I did not ask for some money from Chen Zhengtai this time, I can still be worthy of Chen Zhengtai.

But Li Shimin couldn't help but start to recall, is there any more?

But I heard Chen Zhengtai say, "Have you forgotten? My teacher said that if there are five people in high school, then on the Chinese Valentine's Day, you have to personally go to Erpigou to participate in the Chinese Valentine's Day full-time pig banquet organized by students."

Li Shimin was stunned...

Is this...exist?

Surely not.

I'm not stupid yet!

But Chen Zhengtai said it seriously in front of the ministers, and in an instant... Li Shimin understood...

This kid... actually returned to him with his own way...

The Chinese Valentine's Day was in the Tang Dynasty, and it started in the palace. People regarded it as the Weaver Girls' Day. The women in the palace had already started weaving cloths and then gave many exquisite fabrics to their close relatives around them.

Li Shimin also enjoyed this festival. On that day, he had to stay with the queen for two hours, and then go to the concubines' places, and even... Li Shimin also prepared the gifts for rewards, intending to give more rewards to Princess Sui'an's mother on this year's Weaver Girl's Day.

The harem needs to be managed well. Except for Empress Changsun, the other concubines and hundreds of concubines, many of them are women from aristocratic families. This checks and balances of the harem are like checks and balances of the court. On the surface, they are just running a family, but in fact they have many plans.

But... Li Shimin was stunned when he heard the three words "All Pig Banquet".

This kid Chen Zhengtai... takes action first and then reports, and he wants to take revenge on me.

Thinking of this, Li Shimin became more complicated.

When the ministers heard the word "pig", they couldn't help but laugh.

Except for people with special hobbies, the powerful people of the Tang Dynasty never ate pigs because the meat of pigs is very fishy, ​​and people usually eat deer and sheep.

Chen Zhengtai invited His Majesty to have a full-pig banquet. If this spreads, it will inevitably make people laugh.

Sure enough... the man surnamed Chen is a double-edged sword. Although there are good things, but bad things...

Even the company chief Sun Wuji couldn't hold it in his arms at this moment and couldn't help laughing.

Li Shimin wanted to shake his head at this moment and say, "I have this bet with you?"

But when I think about it... in front of everyone, let alone Chen Zhengtai, who knew that he was the one who cheated on him first, was still the one who was not kind.

Then... Li Shimin smiled and said, "Did I say it?"

He did not deny it, but instead spoke in a skeptical tone.

Chen Zhengtai said in surprise: "Have you forgotten by your mentor? Then... let's give up."

Li Shimin glared at Chen Zhengtai and said, "Well, just think that this bet is there, just...eat pigs?"

He needs to make sure again.

Chen Zhengtai said solemnly: "This pig tastes delicious. My teacher will not forget it after eating it."

"Ahem..."

On the city tower, various coughs sounded one after another.

In order to prevent Jun Qian from losing his character, he had to use cough to cover up his loss of composure.
