Chapter 306: If you are defeated in the battlefield in the future, please don't say that you are my student

"Just now, my grandson went to the Tang Dynasty Imperial Academy of Literature." Li Xiang's butt half hung on the table. "When I was in Youzhou, my grandson trained 20 teachers with the new teaching materials and temporarily let them teach in the school, teaching students from grades one to six."

"Well, I heard you talk about this in your letter." Li Shimin noticed his grandson's unsightly but somewhat handsome look, and his eyes twitched. "There is one thing you said that really struck a chord with me: no matter how poor you are, you cannot be poor in education, and no matter how hard it is, you cannot make your children suffer. This is indeed the truth."

"Auntie, you really have good vision." Li Xiang gave a thumbs up, and then said, "In fact, I came here today not only to report this matter to Auntie, but also to tell you something else."

"Oh?" Li Shimin raised his eyebrows: "You tell me, I want to hear it."

"That's right. The Arts College has teachers teaching, so the Military College certainly can't fall behind, so I want to ask Grandpa to invite some experienced veterans to teach at the Military College." Li Xiang said with a smile: "In this way, the older veterans can continue to shine and pass on their legacy. The Tang Dynasty also gets a group of well-educated generals. This can be said to kill two birds with one stone."

After hearing Li Xiang's words, Li Shimin first thought carefully about the candidate.

Well... the pharmacist is good. Now he is still living in seclusion at home. If he can pass on his legacy, that would be a good idea.

And Mao Gong is also a very good candidate for a teacher...

Thinking of this, Li Shimin suddenly frowned.

That's not right, this grandson...

You invited the veteran to give lectures, but didn’t invite me?

The only one you forgot is you, the experienced and victorious Aung? !

Li Xiang had already noticed the change in Li Shimin's expression, and he smiled in his heart without saying anything.

"Ahem, then Xiang'er, who do you think is suitable to teach?" Li Shimin cleared his throat, trying to hint to his beloved grandson that he should go to the military academy to be a teacher.

Li Xiang did it on purpose. He pretended to be silent and said, "Well, in my opinion, this teacher must be a famous general who has experienced hundreds of battles and has made great achievements. Otherwise, he will not be able to suppress these boys in the Military Academy. I think the Duke of Weiguo is very suitable, the Duke of Yingguo is also OK, and the Prince of Jiangxia is not bad either."

"What else?" Li Shimin coughed twice again.

"Well, actually Duke Lu and Duke E are also fine." Li Xiang said deliberately.

Duke Lu is Cheng Yaojin, and Duke E is Yuchi Jingde.

"The two of them?" Li Shimin took a deep breath.

You invited your aunt (mother-in-law), these two guys with muscles in their brains, but you didn’t invite me, a famous general, right?

"Yes, they are experienced generals, aren't they?" Li Xiang muttered to himself as if he didn't realize it, and then said: "Duke E is a talented general, so he can naturally teach the skills of charging into battle."

Hearing this, Li Shimin couldn't help but take a deep breath.

Hey, you rebellious grandson, look up!
The real charging general is right in front of you!

Before Old Li could sulk for long, he heard Li Xiang's leisurely words.

"Oh, by the way, grandson suddenly remembered that you, Aung, are not the most outstanding military strategist and famous general in the Tang Dynasty today?"

This grandson... has vision!

Old Li was immediately delighted. He gave Li Xiang a look that said "you are a very sensible boy", then looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle and said very reservedly, "Really? In Xiang'er's eyes, am I a famous general?"

"Of course. Even if Sun Wu were resurrected, he wouldn't be even one ten-thousandth as good as Aweng!" Li Xiang began to flatter him without talking about the Basic Law at all.

"Hehe, how dare I compare myself with the ancients?" Li Shimin glared at Li Xiang, but there was no hint of blame in his words.

Then, he changed the subject again: "But since it is Xiang'er who asked me to do so, I can't refuse. I will reluctantly give lectures to the students in my spare time."

"Then I would like to thank Grandfather on behalf of my classmates..." Li Xiang smiled and bowed, "With Grandfather teaching these students, it will be difficult for them not to become talented."

Li Shimin sighed, waved his hand and said: "What do you mean by talent or not? If you are defeated on the battlefield in the future, just don't say it was my fault..."

Li Xiang was choked by these words.

You know what, there is some truth in what you said.

"Since Grandfather has agreed, I am relieved." Li Xiang ignored what Old Li said and continued, "In a few days, I will visit the generals' residences and discuss letting them teach at the Military Academy."

Originally, Old Li wanted to remind him that Li Jing was very idle at home and might not accept his invitation.

But on second thought, that bastard grandson actually dared to commit treason and openly tease him, Old Li. It would be better for you, a young man, to have to deal with this challenge.

Thinking of this, Li Shimin nodded, indicating that you should leave quickly.

"Then I will take my leave." Li Xiang bowed and left the Lizheng Hall with a smile.

There was no rush to go to the veterans' residences for the time being. Li Xiang thought about it and considered that he should organize another mature martial arts examination.

The Military Academy, like the Arts Academy, has an autumn semester system, and Li Xiang does not plan to have a short semester for the Military Academy. After all, the courses here are not as tight as those of the Arts Academy, and there is still plenty of time to prepare.

After all, he was prepared for what classes would be taught in the Faculty of Arts, but he had no idea what classes he should take in the Military Academy.

It’s not that he’s not professional, it’s just that he hasn’t been to military school, so he doesn’t know what courses he should teach.

But then again, in addition to military education, we cannot lag behind in ideology.

After all, in Li Xiang's opinion, a regular army should behave like a regular army and cannot be like bandits.

Besides, the loyalty of the army must be guaranteed.

In this regard, Li Xiang has always been aware.

Thinking of this, Li Xiang left the Lizheng Hall, but he did not return to the Wude Hall. Instead, he walked out of the palace and brought his men to Jingzhao Prefecture.

In Jingzhao Prefecture, the person on duty in the court was Luo Binwang.

Luo Binwang was looking through files behind the desk. He was quite surprised to see Li Xiang coming to Jingzhao Prefecture.

"Your Highness? What brings you here?"

Of course he was surprised, because he knew his prince's character very well. He would never work if he could rest.

Now that he has ten days of rest, he should be enjoying the singing and dancing in the Wude Hall. How come he suddenly came to Jingzhao Prefecture?

"Something's going on." Li Xiang looked around: "Where's Shengzhi?"

"Brother Shengzhi is organizing teaching materials at the School of Arts, and is also drafting an admissions brochure." Luo Binwang endured the awkwardness and said a term from later generations, and then asked Li Xiang: "Your Highness, how is the admissions of the School of Arts going? These days, many well-informed people have come to inquire, and they all want to enroll their children in the School of Arts." Neither Luo Binwang, Lu Zhaolin, nor Li Xiang were surprised by the reactions of these parents.

After all, this is the academy run by the grandson of the current Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty, which means that the wind direction will soon change in the future.

If you don’t get on the bus now, what are you waiting for?

Even a fool can figure out that the Crown Prince is the definite successor, and his current policies represent the direction of reform when he ascends the throne in the future.

If you don't make preparations in advance now, are you going to have to cram at the last minute?

"It seems that they are not well-informed enough, otherwise they would know how to recruit students." Li Xiang said with a smile.

"Your Highness, you are joking. Only you and I know the details of the recruitment. Even Shengzhi doesn't know." Luo Binwang answered confidently, "No matter how well-informed those people are, they will not know the specific details."

"I believe in sightseeing." Li Xiang said warmly, and then asked: "I came here for this purpose. Let's plan it. The entrance examination will officially begin on December 15th. In a few days, the enrollment brochure of Shengzhi will be written and posted on the streets and alleys of Chang'an City. No matter your family background, as long as your grades are good enough, the College of Arts will admit you."

Hearing this, Luo Bin Wang opened his mouth and asked, "Your Highness, where are the people from the foreign countries?"

"If they are Turks like those led by Prince Huaihua, they can enroll in school; if they are Silla people, they can only enroll in school after two years; if they are Goguryeo and Baekje people who entered the Tang Dynasty by suppressing the rebellion, they can only enroll in school after three years." Li Xiang raised his eyebrows and said to Luo Binwang.

There is nothing wrong with Li Xiang thinking this way. After all, history has proven the Goguryeo people's loyalty to the Tang Dynasty.

But in fact, after the fall of Goguryeo, the concept of Goguryeo disappeared. When talking about Gao Xianzhi, who would think he was a Goguryeo person? They were all Tang people.

He set a time limit to give an explanation to the Han people in Chang'an and some buffer time. After all, the flesh on his palms is thicker.

The reason why the Turks of Li Simo's tribe were given such an opportunity was because even if they were given an opportunity, it might not be useful...

Li Xiang does not discriminate. In the entrance examination of the School of Arts, no matter what your background is, the scores are real and there is no preferential treatment.

No matter whether you are a Turk or a Goguryeo or Silla, you will be treated equally in the School of Literature.

Don't say you can't speak Chinese clearly or don't know many Chinese characters. This is the Tang Dynasty. If you can't learn Chinese characters or speak Chinese well, don't come to the College of Arts to join in the fun.

You want to stand out, but you refuse to integrate into the Tang Dynasty. You make it very difficult for me.

This is not only directed at them, but also at the dignitaries.

It's not allowed, absolutely not allowed, to use power to oppress others and get more places in the Royal Academy of Arts.

You use your power to oppress others, who are you oppressing?
If you dare to use your power to suppress the academy today, you will dare to suppress the Crown Prince tomorrow, the day after tomorrow you will dare to suppress the Prince, and the day after tomorrow you will dare to suppress Li Shimin.

What, the Tang Dynasty can’t accommodate you anymore?

Do you want Lao Li to hold the bow? He will definitely make you feel the warm heart of a brother (physics).

Luo Bin Wang naturally knew what Li Xiang was thinking. He bowed his hands and said sincerely, "Your Highness is very far-sighted. I cannot compare with you!"

"Look, I really like listening to you talk." Li Xiang praised with a smile.

Before he could finish his words, he heard a voice coming from outside.

"Isn't this Xiang'er? Why didn't you come to visit me on your day off, but instead sat here in Jingzhao Mansion?"

"It's my aunt Gaoyang who's here." Li Xiang said helplessly. The voice came over before the person even walked into the main hall.

Sure enough, after Li Xiang finished speaking, he saw Li Su lift the curtain and walk into the main hall, looking at him with a pair of phoenix eyes that seemed to be neither angry nor angry.

"Aunt." Li Xiang greeted politely.

"You heartless boy. You've been home for so many days, but you didn't even come to visit me and your aunt Changle." Li Shu narrowed his eyes and walked over, sitting on the chair next to Li Xiang.

The maid behind him handed the hand warmer to Li Shu. Li Shu took the animal-shaped warmer, put it on his legs, and hid it in the fox fur.

Although the cotton business was now booming, noble ladies like Li Shu did not wear thick cotton jackets, but continued to wear luxurious furs.

After all, that cotton jacket is really stupid. Although it keeps warm, it doesn't look beautiful at all.

"How can it be so many days? I just got home the day before yesterday." Li Xiang quickly cried out: "I was planning to visit my aunt after finishing today's work, but I didn't expect my aunt to come first."

That being said, visiting Li Shu was not really on his schedule today.

Li Shu snorted.

"Why didn't your aunt come to our family dinner the day before yesterday?" Li Xiang asked carefully.

"I was feeling unwell the past two days." Li Shu shook his head.

"Are you feeling unwell? Have you let Master Sun take a look?" Li Xiang asked with concern, and his concern was not fake.

Seeing Li Xiang's genuine concern, Li Su smiled and said, "It's okay, Xiang'er, don't worry. I was fine yesterday, otherwise I wouldn't have come to Jingzhao Prefecture today."

Li Xiang breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "That's fine. Aunt, please don't force yourself. If you are sick, just rest more. If you get too tired, who will help me take care of you..."

"So you care about me just to get me to do hard labor for you?" Li Shu asked with a dark face.

Li Xiang chuckled. He said those words on purpose just now, just to lighten the atmosphere.

"Look at what my aunt said. How can that be possible?"

"Humph." Li Shu rolled his eyes at him and said, "Your uncle lived up to your trust. The Chang'an sewer renovation project was completed successfully. I have asked someone to draft a detailed report. I will give it to you for review after you start your shift in a few days."

"Okay, aunt." Li Xiang nodded and praised Fang Yiai: "Uncle is really capable, aunt is really good at controlling her husband and training him well!"

Hearing Li Xiang's words, Li Su narrowed his eyes happily.

This statement was absolutely flawless, praising Fang Yiai's outstanding abilities as well as Li Shu's superb training methods.

Otherwise, he is the crown prince. If you measure his EQ, it would be two pounds more than that of a normal person.

"What a sweet mouth." Li Shu smiled and continued, "The cotton products have been officially rolled out a few days ago. You know what, the quilt filled with cotton wool is indeed much warmer than the brocade quilt..."

Li Xiang thought, "brocade quilt? What is that? It is called a summer quilt in later generations."

You want to use this thing to keep out the cold? Can it compare to a big quilt or a ball of cotton?
