Datang: The prince of salted fish was overheard by Li Er

Chapter 216 The whereabouts of the young man, accompanied by Li You

Thinking of this, Li Shimin looked for Wei Zheng among the civil and military officials.

Sure enough, he soon saw that familiar figure.

Seeing Wei Zheng's body move slightly, Li Shimin spoke first.

Things went well for Wei Zheng to appease Hebei, and Li Shimin was ready to let him manage Yushitai according to Li You's idea.

However, such a personnel change cannot be explained clearly in one sentence, and it will inevitably be discussed by the officials of the Manchu Dynasty.

So before that, out of gratitude to Li You, Li Shimin decided to take care of Li You's affairs first.

He looked at Kong Yingda and asked, "Kong Jijiu, how many students are under the age of 20 among the six schools in the Second Hall of the Imperial College?"

Although she was called by Li Shimin suddenly, Kong Yingda was just a little taken aback and said, "Return to Your Majesty, there are currently 130 students under the age of 20 in the six schools of the Second Hall of the Imperial College."

"Among them, there are 32 students from Hongwen Hall, 18 from Chongwen Hall, 28 from Imperial Academy, 21 from Taixue, and 33 from Simenxue. There are no juvenile students in Law, Calligraphy, and Mathematical Studies."

Seeing that Kong Yingda said the number in one breath, Li Shimin's face showed a hint of appreciation.

"Kong Jijiu and the situation of Guozijian are really well known. It really took a lot of painstaking efforts."

"Kong Jijiu is so attentive, he should be a model for all lovers."

As soon as these words came out, everyone applauded for a while.

Especially those Confucian officials are even more enthusiastic.

Kong Yingda knew that it was impossible for Li Shimin to ask about this matter for no reason. Although Li Shimin didn't say anything now, he still took the initiative to speak up.

"I don't know Your Majesty, but I suddenly asked about the arrangements for these young students?"

"These young students are the fresh blood that the Imperial College has focused on training!"

Although he didn't know what Li Shimin wanted these people to do, Kong Yingda felt that he should express his position first.

Among these people, in addition to princes and nobles, and the children of aristocratic families in Beijing, they are also talented young men recruited by the Imperial College from all over the country.

Most of these teenagers are orphans during the war. Although their families are withered, they have a glorious past.

However, whether they are the children of officials or these orphans, Kong Yingda has high hopes for them.

As an educator, he understands the value of teenagers to the future of the empire.

So he also paid more attention to these teenagers, and looked at Li Shimin warily.

Seeing Kong Yingda's nervous expression, Li Shimin smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry about Kong Jijiu, I just want to find a good place for them."

"ideas?"

Hearing this, Kong Yingda became even more nervous, and he immediately thought of something.

"Your Majesty, these youngsters are studying, and staying in the Imperial College is their best choice."

"I heard that His Majesty is forming a new army to guard the territory, but I think they are not ready yet!"

Li Shimin shook his head, and was about to explain the situation, but Cheng Yaojin from the general's side spoke ahead of time.

"Well, Confucius, when will it be your turn to arrange for His Majesty?"

"What's wrong with these young men joining the new army?"

"Which of the generals we present here didn't go to the battlefield in their teens."

"Why do the two little tigers of our Cheng family become powerless when they go to school in your Imperial College?"

"If Your Majesty really wants to form a new family to fight against the enemy, he needs the young Erlang, and the two boys from my Cheng family will report for duty immediately!"

Not only Cheng Yaojin, but also Yuchi Jingde and others have expressed their views that if His Majesty needs it, their children will immediately quit the Imperial College and enlist in the army.

Regarding these generals, Kong Yingda also looked helpless.

He wanted to argue with reason, and wanted to say that the era of immediately conquering the world is over, but now the foreign enemies are still tyrannical, and he didn't know how to refute for a while, so he could only look at Li Shimin with a resentful expression.

"Your Majesty has promised me not to interfere in the internal affairs of the Imperial College!"

He didn't have much confidence in what he said, because these generals dropped out of school voluntarily, and he really couldn't blame Li Shimin for going there.

Li Shimin made a gesture to make everyone quiet, and then said: "Who said I want to mobilize them into the new army!"

"All the new army needs are people with extraordinary strength. Why do I need these young people?"

Cheng Yaojin was startled, he heard decisively that Li Shimin's new army might be the Modao army that made him salivate before, and now he wanted to fight for his two sons even more.

"Your Majesty, the two sons of the Cheng family are born with supernatural powers, and I may not be as strong as them when I was young."

Seeing Cheng Yaojin open his mouth, the generals were also ready to recommend their sons.

As the saying goes, Wen Wu is the first, and Wu Wu is the second. Although these military generals call themselves brothers and sisters after drinking, they are not convinced in another respect.

Seeing how they were scrambling to be the first, Li Shimin was amused again.

"Bite gold, the new army is still under preparation. As I said, these youngsters are not going to the new army."

Then Li Shimin turned his head and said to Kong Yingda: "Kong Jijiu, let me tell you where these young people are going, and then decide whether to agree or not."

"General Shence has set up a new school in Shence Mansion, and hopes to recruit some young students from the Imperial Academy to study with him. The current number is tentatively set at 30."

"Kong Jijiu, what do you think?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes immediately shifted to Li You.

"No wonder this prince who is famous for his laziness will come to the court today. Feelings are here to ask for people."

"These people are the prince's companions if they say it well, but they are playmates if they say it badly."

"Based on the laziness of the King of Chu, it seems that these thirty youths will stop here in the future."

"I think Kong Yingda must be impatient with His Majesty this time!"

"With Lao Er Kong's personality, he definitely wouldn't be willing. Isn't it just a few playmates? I need people from the Imperial College!"

Although the Shence Mansion and the Prince Chu Mansion have made a lot of moves recently, except for the Salt Supervisor, they also have other spokespersons for other things.

Although the affairs of the household department were handled in an orderly manner, they also felt that it was just that the chief of the palace, Shi, was outstanding. In addition, Feng Shaoshi had recently come to help him.

"And I also heard that the King of Chu just came back from Hexi recently, and this time he is going to ask for someone. He probably just went out to play wild. He thinks there are not many people around him, so it's not fun."

"Hey, His Majesty really pampered King Chu, His Majesty really has nothing to say to the children."

For a while, everyone in the hall began to discuss.

Some said it in a low voice, and some secretly complained in their hearts, waiting to watch the show.

Some people were even thinking about how to appease the furious Kong Yingda later.

Even though Kong Yingda is a master of scholars, his temper is not easy to mess with.

Scholars are born with a spine that cannot be bent, and Kong Yingda's is especially hard.

However, under the complex eyes of everyone, Kong Yingda unexpectedly knelt down.
