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

Chapter 222 Li Gang also has a grandson, and Li You also has a cousin

Kong Yingda begged Li You for something the other day, but today Li Gang's purpose is the same as Kong Yingda's.

Kong Yingda has a young son who loves to study medicine, and Li Gang also has a grandson Li Anren.

Li Gang, the grandson, inherited his grandfather's love of Confucianism, but at the same time he added a new love, that is arithmetic.

At present, Li Anren is studying mathematics with Wang Xiaotong, a doctor of mathematics in the Imperial College.

For Wang Xiaotong, Li Gang actually admired him somewhat.

He has conducted in-depth research on "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" and Zu Chongzhi's "Jiu Shu". In the article "Shangji Ancient Arithmetic Table", he has criticized the shortcomings of both "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" and "Zhu Shu". .

Wang Xiaotong wrote "Jigu Suanjing", which was designated as one of the ten books of Suanjing by Guozijian, and it was one of the textbooks for Guozijian's mathematics.

Although his grandson has a good talent in mathematics and has met a famous teacher, Li Gang doesn't want him to go down this road.

In his view, arithmetic serves the people's livelihood. If learning cannot be applied, then the cart before the horse will be put before the horse.

Just like Wang Xiaotong is unparalleled in the world in mathematics, but he can only teach in mathematics.

Wang Xiaotong was getting old, and Li Gang couldn't say anything, but he didn't want his grandson to follow this path.

But Li Anren's temper was exactly the same as Li Gang's when he was young. The more his elders obstructed him, the more persistent he became, and he wanted to carry forward arithmetic together.

This time, when he heard about Li You running a school from Kong Yingda, Li Gang was moved.

He had talked about Li You in front of Li Anren before, and Li Anren also found it very interesting, so Li Gang prepared to let Li Anren come to Li You's school.

But now, the biggest problem is that Li Anren is over age.

Li Anren is already 22 years old this year, perfectly missing the age limit set by Li You.

In desperation, Li Gang had no choice but to come to Li You in person, hoping that by virtue of the relationship between the two of them, he could accommodate him.

When Yu Huatian said that Li Gang was in a hurry, Li You guessed a thing or two.

He will be looking for him at this juncture, and it is very likely that it is a matter of enrolling.

[Hey, poor parents in the world.Not only parents, grandparents are also worried about their children. 】

With emotion, Li You still decided to go to see Li Gang first, and at the same time asked Xiao Ying to take Feng Shaoshi to the side hall. He believed that Feng Shaoshi was a man, and he would definitely not spread this matter.

Soon, Li You saw Li Gang who looked anxious.

"Master Li, I haven't seen you for a few days. You are in good spirits."

Li You greeted with a smile.

Li Gang returned the salute, and then said awkwardly: "His Royal Highness Chu Wang, this time I came to you because I hope the Chu Wang can give me face and let my grandson Li Anren take the exam."

Li Gang also didn't want to rely on his relationship to recommend his grandson to school, all he wanted was a chance to be assessed.

If Li Anren is not selected after the final test, Li Gang has nothing to say.

After listening to Li Gang's description, Li You smiled.

"Master Li, in my opinion, arithmetic is very important, even more important than scriptures."

"Since An Ren is talented in mathematics, I'll make an exception and let him take the assessment."

"Not only him, but also talented young people in mathematics can come. This one should be above 25."

"It's just that I'm worried, whether Anren will be willing to take the test."

Li Gang said decisively: "Hmph, this matter is beyond his control, even if it is tied, I will tie him up."

Li You suddenly had black lines on his face.

But he still said: "Master Li, go back and tell An Ren that there are many math problems in this test. If you want to test his talent in math, come and take the test."

This time Li Gang asked again: "King Chu, do you still have math in this assessment?"

"Then what are the people you recruited this time for?"

Although Li Gang already felt that Li You was extraordinary, he still wanted to know a thing or two about his grandson's future.

Li You smiled slightly and said, "Master Li knows that I have many workshops in Shence Mansion, right? The talents I cultivated this time are to prepare for the establishment of more special workshops."

"I'm still a child, and some things are really beyond my control."

Then Li You shook his head helplessly.

Hearing that it was related to those workshops, Li Gang grinned and said: "Since it is related to those workshops, it's easy. I'll tell An Ren, he will definitely be interested."

After finishing speaking, Li Gang thanked him again, and left happily.

After Li Gang left, Li You looked at Master Feng and asked, "Uncle, what's the matter?"

Young master Feng smiled slightly, and then said playfully, "Your is so smart, can't you guess uncle's intention?"

Li You was taken aback for a moment, and then asked in disbelief: "Could it be that I have a cousin who also wants to enter the school of Shence Mansion?"

Master Feng shook his head and said, "It's not my cousin."

This time Li You didn't understand even more: "Then this time my nephew won't be able to guess."

Master Feng smiled again and said, "Okay, I won't play charades with you anymore, it's your cousin."

"Your cousin is sixteen this year, but your cousin doesn't go to the Imperial College anymore."

Li You also said straightforwardly: "Since you are a cousin, why do you still need to be assessed, just come directly when the class starts."

This new school is currently Li You's school, and there is no problem in arranging a qualified relative to come in.

However, Young Master Feng shook his head and said: "No, you must participate in the assessment."

Then Young Master Feng explained his reasons.

This is a game between Master Feng and his daughter.

Master Feng's daughter, under the training of Master Feng and Princess Xiangyang, has grown into a graceful figure, and she is a perfect lady.

However, this daughter has always wanted to serve the court since she was a child, and the one she admires most is her aunt, Princess Pingyang.

However, she didn't have the chance to fight the enemy, and several applications to join the army were rejected by Li Shimin.

Naturally, she was not satisfied with such a result.

But Master Feng was not willing to let her show up like this.

The two discussed it and came to an agreement this time.

If her daughter passed the examination, she would naturally be able to enter Li You's school, and she would make her own arrangements for what to do in the future.

But if the daughter's talent is not enough to pass the test, then don't struggle anymore, obediently obey the orders of the parents, the words of the matchmaker, and marry as a wife.

After listening, Li You was also curious for a while.

He never imagined that there would be such an enlightened father in this era.

Immediately, he had a more favorable impression of Feng Shaoshi.

Then he asked jokingly, "Uncle, do you want my cousin to pass or not?"
