Tang Dynasty good father-in-law

A schedule is engraved on each person's bedside, and they have to get up and do morning exercises for an hour at midnight.

Because there is no martial arts taught yet, the main thing is to run around the entire playground, but after running too much, everyone is out of breath.

After the morning exercise, it's time to wash up and eat breakfast, and it's time to start reading early.

The sound of Lang Lang reading began to spread from the academy, and for these children from farming families, it was mainly teaching literacy at the same time.

What he was reading was the Four Books and Five Classics, even Shu An had to make some concessions in the traditional courses in these times.

Not to mention that he started from Confucianism, so it wasn't too difficult.

"Rites, gentle and elegant, well-behaved, courteous, open-minded and educated, and gentlemanly."

"That is to say, etiquette is an attitude towards others, or it can be described in terms of demeanor. The simplest is to respect teachers, respect the old and love the young."

"Taking the four sons of the Warring States Period as an example, what are the corporals of courtesy and virtuousness? Three of them are just hospitable people."

.......

And the Confucianism class in the morning was naturally taught by Shu An. Compared with those old masters who followed the ancient and rigid rules, his lectures were much more vivid.

Whether it is various citations, or various analysis, it is undoubtedly better, at least in this era, it is a means to attract students.

After all, students of later generations are already immune to these means of increasing classroom fun.

As for this time, it looks pretty good, and occasionally Shu An even asks some students to come up and play roles.

Although I was a little cautious at the beginning because of my identity, I was more relaxed later on.

In addition to Confucianism courses, there are also calligraphy and arithmetic courses, which are the contents of the six arts of the gentleman.

In the afternoon, it was Su Lie's class, which was about the drill on the martial arts formation.

Even the few people who were born in the general family were a little listless, obviously they had been drilled to the point of being ill.

Except for the ranking for the first time picking vegetables, there is no ranking after that. Everyone's meals are the same.

The main reason is that Shu An didn't compete every day, once every few days was enough, not every day.

It was for this reason that Cheng Chuliang and the others ate the most delicious meal in their lives. Originally, they were all wondering whether they would be eliminated from the academy.

However, in order to eat the meals in the academy, the whole person became energetic. Several people glanced at each other. In order to eat, they had to stay for the assessment no matter what.

Therefore, the study level of these noble children is not even inferior to the peasant children, which makes Shu An a little bit impressed.

However, after understanding the reason, they couldn't help being a little dumbfounded. They didn't expect that these people were studying hard to make a living in the academy.

The most pleasant time for the 21 students every day is the time to eat.

Late at night

The academy was quiet, and Li Tai couldn't help but rubbed his head. After coming to the academy, compared with the life in the palace, there was a big change.

When he was in the Imperial College, he would only listen to it unless he came across something he was interested in.

As for the academy, he couldn't help but listen to the lessons taught by Grandpa An. As for the martial arts lesson, the fat man was very interested.

Usually the queen mother was afraid that he would get hurt and didn't let him touch these things, which naturally made him curious.

The feeling given to Li Tai in the academy is that he is fulfilled, and there is something to learn and things to do every day.

Looking at the arithmetic problem left by Grandpa An, even Li Tai couldn't help but frown. This question was not required to be answered compulsively.

But if it can be answered, then there will be a meat bun tomorrow morning, even if Li Tai thinks of it, he can't help but want to eat some.

Of course, the most important point is that there is no one else, and there is only harm when there is a comparison. This kind of feeling is not even available to Li Tai as a prince.

Especially during the first competition, Li Tai was filled with a sense of satisfaction when he looked at the envious eyes.

I secretly made up my mind that no matter what happens in the future, I can't lag behind anyone.

"Grandpa An's answer to this question is quite difficult."

Li Tai took a deep breath and murmured softly, and walked out of his room involuntarily.

The location of his room is pretty good, the first room on the left symbolizes the most honorable.

But Li Tai knew that it was only because of his identity, if he lost his identity, many people would not accept him.

"what!"

Li Tai was a little surprised suddenly, because he found that there were subtle lights coming from many rooms.

This means that many people are thinking about this topic, especially what makes Li Tai depressed is that this is not the room of the honorable trio, and it is still lit.

You must know that if Li Tai and some descendants of aristocratic families still have advantages over Confucianism, then they don't have much advantage over arithmetic.

After all, if you have more contacts, you will basically be able to settle accounts, so there is no difference between many people at the starting point of arithmetic.

What surprised Li Tai was that the trio of nobles usually didn't like to study, but they stayed up all night to study the topic, even he didn't think of it.

But even Cheng Chuliang worked so hard, even Li Tai couldn't help feeling a little nervous.

Especially Yuchi Baolin usually has a bad reputation in Chang'an, even he knows a lot about it.

It is said that E Guogong invited many teachers, but they were all driven away by this pair of brothers, which led to the fact that no one dared to teach these two students in the end.

One of the brothers entered the Guozijian, and the other was sent to the academy. They must have come to try their luck. As for Cheng Chuliang, it was not much better.

The more his thoughts raced, the less Li Tai thought of looking at the night, and turned back to his house to continue studying this topic.

There are people on duty in the academy every night to prevent any accidents, and Su Lie has lived in the academy for a long time, as for Shu'an, there is no certainty.

In the dark night, Su Lie looked a little surprised. He had heard a lot of rumors about these noble children from other people in the mansion.

In addition, he has indeed tested several people, and it is true that the foundation of martial arts is fairly solid, but he does not have much brains beyond strategic military exercises.

I didn't expect to study for such a long time for a topic, even Su Lie didn't change the impression of these three people.

As for that arithmetic problem, Su Lie also looked at it for a long time before he had some clues. After calculation, arithmetic is more widely used on the battlefield, so it is one of his specialties.

Chapter 96 Surprises, Changes

Imperial study room

Li Shimin reviewed the memorial meticulously, and occasionally stopped to rest for a while. At this time, he couldn't help but think of Qingque.

"Counting it all together, it's been almost half a month since Qingque left."

Li Shimin's eyes flickered and he said softly, he was determined not to pay attention to this son.

After all, it's not easy to monitor my own father. I mainly ask Baiqi to investigate Qingque's situation. If there is nothing to do, there is no need to report it. If there is no news, then it is considered good news.

"Tread, step!"

At this moment, the sound of hurried footsteps came, which made the emperor frowned slightly.

But when he saw that it was Li Junxian, Li Shimin's heart skipped a beat, because unlike other people, the Commander of Baiqi was qualified to meet him directly.

However, this hasty look clearly indicated that something big had happened, which gave Li Shimin a bad premonition.

"I have seen Your Majesty!"

Li Junxian said respectfully first.

"But something happened!"

It's just that before Li Junxian's voice fell completely, Li Shimin's voice sounded.

"Not long ago, a few refugees came to Chang'an, and Duke Anxuan told Jun Xian about the situation."

"Then Junxian sent a hundred horsemen to investigate. Last year, there was no rain in the Guanzhong area. This year, countless vegetable fields rotted and died, and the people could not sustain themselves."

"The drought has already formed, and the people are short of food. Many people have even sold their children in exchange for food and clothing."

.......

Li Junxian's expression turned serious and he hurriedly spoke out, since the last time he went to invite An Xuangong, he heard him talk about this matter.

He didn't dare to neglect to investigate this matter in the slightest. He would not forget that he used his head to guarantee it last time.

If it hadn't been found out at the end, otherwise it would have been a little later, and I'm afraid he would be skinned if he didn't die.

So this time Li Junxian sent someone to investigate, and the news finally came back today, but he had a shocking feeling when he saw the news before.

After the words fell, Li Shimin's eyes were bulging with blue veins, his complexion was very ugly, and at the same time, there was a kind of anger in his chest that could not be vented.

You should know that there was a severe drought in Guanzhong last year. Fortunately, the scope was not extensive and it was still under control, and it did not cause much impact.

However, this time, it was the Guannei area, which had reached the point where it was easy for children to eat. This area can be said to be under the foot of the emperor, but no one has reported this matter until now.

If it weren't for the cheap father-in-law's careful observation, he might have caused a catastrophe. After all, the common people had nothing to eat, so they might mutiny.

"Send someone to invite Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, and Du Ruhui."

"Also, go and invite Yafu to enter the palace yourself."

After venting his emotions for a while, Li Shimin's eyes finally recovered. He said something first, but he hesitated to add something later.

Because the previous incident let him know that this father-in-law has an inexhaustible talent, it happened that Li Shimin also wanted to hear the thoughts of this cheap father-in-law.

Academy

After Shu An had just finished a class, he couldn't help but saw Li Junxian coming, and couldn't help being slightly taken aback.

It seems that he didn't expect that the commander of the hundred knights would appear here. You must know that he has lived a very comfortable life in these few days.

Basking in the warm spring sun and teaching the students, especially the changes in the honorable trio, made him a little impressed.

Of course, Shu An also had to say that the three of them were the best among foodies, and they worked hard to eat at the academy, and they were a little clever.

Every subject has to be assessed, and Shu An sets the score as [-] points. There are five subjects in total: Confucianism, arithmetic, calligraphy, archery, and military deduction.

This is just the current subject, and he plans to add a policy theory in the future. Currently, he only needs everyone to score [-] points to pass the exam.

For Confucianism algorithm, it depends on whether the topic is correct or not. For calligraphy, it mainly depends on his personal score. As for archery and military deduction, it depends on how many rings are shot and how many troops are eliminated.

Of course, military deduction is to design a duel of troops and arms under a special environment. This course can be regarded as the basis for training handsome talents.

In this era, it can be regarded as a new course, which makes most students very interested.

And this honorable trio seems to have given up Confucianism directly. It is not suitable for them to memorize and memorize things.

Shu An didn't say anything. Everyone has his own choice. In his opinion, the greatest role of Confucianism is to cultivate a person's character and character.

Confucianism is not an irreplaceable existence. For example, teaching by precept and example is also a good way.

Shu An's thoughts raced for just a moment, and he couldn't help but smile slightly when he saw Li Junxian's anxious face.

"Jun Xian, there is still time to prepare for this matter, don't worry."

After understanding Li Junxian's intentions, Shu An couldn't help shaking his head slightly and said.

Any drought has its omens, not to mention that the food storage of the people is not the same. Some people have more and some have less, and those who are few will become refugees first.

He asked Laifu to pay more attention to Chang'an before, and as expected, he made a discovery not long ago, so he mentioned it.

In fact, he also couldn't remember the time of the drought, but he was sure it was in these few months.

The Guannei area is not far from Chang'an. Every drought has a profound impact, ranging from a few hundred thousand people to tens of millions.

This is not alarmist talk. Shu An had read a record before traveling, which clearly recorded the number of people affected by each drought.

At that time, he felt a little unbelievable, but some droughts happened in later generations, but they have not happened now.

However, this severe drought in the pass will also affect tens of thousands of people. If it is not handled properly, it will cause a bad situation.

"Duke Anxuan, how can we not be in a hurry, His Majesty's complexion is very ugly."

Li Junxian revealed a wry smile on his face and said, His Majesty is in a bad mood, how can these subordinates feel relaxed.

"Let's go!"

Shu An said with a slight smile, he had ordered Su Lie to temporarily dismiss the get out of class.

Not long ago, the first batch of grain from Lingnan arrived, a total of [-] shi, although the waterway was a bit slow.

But Shu An was not in a hurry, one must know that [-] shi is not a small amount, even if it is used to support an army of [-], it would be enough to last three days.

As for the people, as long as they are half full, it is enough for a hundred thousand people to eat for ten days and half a month.

In this era, it is definitely impossible for ordinary people to want to eat enough, and it is not bad to have one who is not hungry.

As long as the food comes back later, he can help more people, so he is not in a hurry on this matter.
