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

The content of the first half of the letter is fairly normal, just introducing the number of people and the place of the exam, but at the end it specifically mentions two candidates, letting Li You determine their whereabouts.

These two people are the current prince Li Chengqian and his brother Wei Wang Li Tai.

"Don't they both have teachers, what are you doing here!"

"Don't you think this place is not messy enough?"

Seeing Sun Simiao's surprised expression, Li You cursed again.

Sun Simiao, who came back to his senses, stroked his beard and said with a smile, "Don't be angry, Youer, this is the crown prince's gratitude."

"You and Dr. Duanmu healed his foot. He doesn't know how to repay you, so naturally he can only recruit King Wei to help your new study."

Hearing this, Li You let out a long sigh.

Why didn't he know the good intentions of Li Chengqian and Li Tai, but now that the new learning is so hot, Li You felt that it was gradually getting out of his control.

While Li You was worrying about Li Chengqian and Li Tailai taking the entrance exam, the Jingzhao family celebrated with each other.

Especially Wei Ting, Li You's "future" father-in-law, was already so happy that he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear.

Although Wei Ting is the patriarch of Jingzhao Wei's generation, but because he was Li Jiancheng's staff before, the power of the Wei family in his line was suppressed very severely.

As a result, some side branches have more say in the family, and sometimes they can challenge Wei Ting's authority.

Previously, after Wei Ting sold Fangshi to Li You and signed a subsequent joint development agreement, many members of the Wei family came out to find fault with this matter.

Some said that Wei Ting ignored the interests of the family and only wanted to curry favor with the imperial power.

Some criticized Wei Ting for his poor vision, and after making a mistake on Li Jiancheng once, they put their chips on the wrong person again.

However, this time, just before the entrance examination for new students, the value of the Wei family's land in Chang'an doubled.

After Li Chengqian and Li Tai took the entrance examination, the value increased exponentially.

Although the enrollment of these two hot princes has not yet come to an end, Wei Ting has re-established his prestige in the family because of this incident.

In the Wei family mansion, seeing Wei Xiaoyu hurriedly passing by the yard, Wei Ting said with a smile: "Xiaoyu, now the crown prince and the king of Wei are going to study in the new school, you have to take advantage of such a good opportunity." !"

Wei Ting's words drew a burst of laughter from everyone in the Wei family.

The Wei family has always produced beauties, and among the younger generation, Wei Xiaoyu is the most outstanding.

If nothing else happened, Wei Xiaoyu's marriage to a certain prince in the future was a certainty, and even entering the new emperor's harem would be a breeze.

Hearing the laughter of her father and uncles, a smiling face flashed in Wei Xiaoyu's mind, and then she said seriously: "Father, Xiaoyu really wants to learn skills when she goes to Xinxue, and she will be like Bao'er in the future." Sister made a contribution to Datang like that."

"I don't have time to chat with you here, I have to study."

"After school starts, there will be a placement test immediately. I don't want to be assigned to that kind of class at the end of the crane!"

The placement test is also a product of the new school expansion.

Since there may be many people who can pass the entrance examination this time, and the level of these people is far beyond the level of the first grade, then these are likely to start directly from the second grade.

If there are too many people, it will be difficult to manage, so there will be a placement test for the members of the second grade.

Some of the best grades enter a class, and so on.

Of course, this placement is not fixed. There will be two placement tests in this school year, and the class will be adjusted according to the results after the test.

So for Wei Xiaoyu, a scion of a competitive family, failing to get on the best flight is a failure.

Originally, Li You didn't want to introduce such an internal competition mechanism, he wanted to give everyone a happy childhood.

But Principal Wu felt that this could better arouse the students' competitiveness and achieve better results.

Li You had no choice but to agree. Anyway, introversion is their business, and he just needs to shout loudly to cheer up.

And this placement test was originally proposed by Li You.

But when Li You said it was aimed at the students of Honghu Hall.

For the students of Honghu Pavilion, it is very likely that they will take various positions in the imperial court after graduation, and it is very important to determine their direction.

The purpose of the placement test is to discover the inner potential of these students, so as to learn things that are more useful for him to develop his talents.

Taking the most basic example, the second-year Honghuguan students will be divided into liberal arts, martial arts, and technology.

Liberal arts is to study knowledge and the way of governance. The direction of training in the future is the local parent officials or the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Officials, and the Ministry of Rites, starting from the basics.

Martial arts is generals, who teach the art of war and how to govern the army, and will directly join the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Punishment in the future.

The science and technology involves astronomy, geography, water conservancy, machinery, etc. After graduation, they will mainly go to the Ministry of Industry, Weiwei Temple, Jiangzuojian, and Dushuijian.

The three subjects have their own emphases, but they also have common courses. It is not impossible to develop in an all-round way.

The establishment of sub-sections also provides a basis and reference for the training of current Datang officials in the future.

However, this division of subjects also makes some students extremely entangled.

Among them, the two children of Cheng Yaojin's family were the most entangled.

The eldest son, Cheng Chumo, was fine. After knowing that the next semester would be divided into subjects, he determined to inherit his father's mantle, so he naturally chose martial arts.

But when Cheng Yaojin asked how the second son Cheng Chuliang would choose, Cheng Chuliang hesitated.

"What are you hesitating about? Tell me what you think!"

Hearing his father's words, Cheng Chuliang mustered up his courage and said, "Father, my son wants to go to Technology."

"Through the previous learning, the child feels that the science taught in the new school is the direction of future development."

"Although the child also knows that a big man should defend his home and country, and bloody frontiers."

"But blindly fighting and killing can't change the fundamental situation of Datang. The enemy can't be killed."

Cheng Chuliang spoke out his thoughts in one breath, and then looked at his father anxiously.

At this moment, Cheng Yaojin was also in deep thought.

Although Cheng Yaojin was born in a reckless family and has a straightforward personality, he is actually a person who distinguishes right from wrong.

Regarding Cheng Chuliang's choice of technology, Cheng Yaojin's first reaction was to get angry.

He has always been the son of a general, and Cheng Yaojin is about to fight in the world. Naturally, his sons should go to battle like him to fight the enemy and defend their family and country.

Although Cheng Chumo's answer just now was a bit perfunctory, it was very appetizing to Cheng Yaojin.

But immediately, when Cheng Chuliang talked about changing the fundamentals of Datang, Cheng Yaojin calmed down.

This time to conquer the Eastern Turks, Cheng Yaojin did not go out with the army, but was left by Li Shimin to guard Chang'an.

Cheng Yaojin didn't understand Li Shimin's decision at first, but in the end Qin Qiong, who also stayed in Chang'an, enlightened him.

Qin Qiong told him that now that the world has been settled, the Tang Dynasty does not lack brave generals, but what is lacking is capable ministers who can govern the world.

The root of governing the world is still governing the people, and governing the people is to let the people have enough food and clothing to live a better life.

So in the future, civil officials will play more roles than military commanders.

So Qin Qiong advised Cheng Yaojin to take advantage of this time to read more books and think about how to govern one side in the future.

Now his son also said similar words, which made Cheng Yaojin feel a lot.

In the end, Cheng Yaojin sighed and said, "Weifu is not an arrogant person. Since you want to study in technology, Weifu won't stop you."

"But I also have a condition, that is, I must enter the best class."

"If not, even if I go to ask King Yan, please Your Majesty, I will let you return to Wuke!"

Then, Cheng Yaojin turned his head to look at Cheng Chuliang and asked, "Mo'er, just now your brother said what he thinks, how about you?"

"Is martial arts really your real idea?"
