I am Li Shen and Li Shimin, the free kings of the Tang Dynasty

Cui Renzhi was speechless and unable to answer when asked by Li Shen.

If you say no, then you are saying that this day is not Li Tang's world yet. There is nothing wrong with you saying that it is the birthday of that family.

"Your Majesty, neither Your Majesty nor the Queen has made any grand arrangements for their birthdays. Don't you think it would be overstepping the mark by hosting a birthday banquet for the Queen?"

Just when Cui Inzhi was speechless, teammate Lu Chengqing stood up, although he initially disagreed with Cui Inzhi's behavior.

But as a teammate, we can't watch Cui Inzhi suffer.

Li Shen turned to look at him, his face turned cold, and then he glanced around again.

"Who else among you thinks so? Secretary Wei, do you think so too?" Li Shen asked Wei Ting. He wanted to see what the Wei family's attitude was.

Wei Ting was in a dilemma when he heard this. Firstly, they were allies with the aristocratic family, and secondly, they still hoped that Concubine Wei's status would be as high as possible.

Although they were unhappy before, they always believed that Concubine Wei would still help them at the critical moment after breaking the bones and connecting the tendons.

Finally, Wei Ting said: "I believe that His Royal Highness, Prince Ji, hosting a birthday banquet for the noble concubine is a filial piety, and there is no suspicion of overstepping the bounds."

As soon as these words came out, Cui Renzhi and Lu Chengqing both looked back at Wei Ting.

There really are no allies when it comes to interests.

Li Shen was very satisfied with Wei Ting's answer. At least they won't be on the wrong side when it comes to interests.

"You see, this king is filial, and he spends his own money, not the people's wealth. Aye and his mother don't hold a birthday party because they don't want to spend money from the treasury," Li Shen's expression returned to normal. .

"Okay, since King Ji is honoring his mother and concubine and spending his own money, I agree to this, but don't make it too big, you know?" Finally, Li Shimin came to a conclusion, and he expressed his displeasure with Cui Renzhi and others for participating in him. I am very dissatisfied with my family affairs.

"Yes"

"Thank you."

"Aye, I have one more thing," Li Shen said again

"Go ahead."

"I have already organized a birthday banquet for my mother-in-law, so of course I have to be filial to Aye. I know that Aye doesn't like to make a fuss, so I plan to pray for Aye.

Build a college in each state of Guannai Road, Henan Road, and Shannan Road, including enlightenment education, the Four Books and Five Classics, and the Ming Jing Law. Aye, what do you think? "

After Li Shen finished speaking, there was an uproar. There are more than 200 states in three provinces. A smaller college costs several thousand guan, and a larger one costs at least [-] guan.

More than 200 states are worth more than 200 million yuan. Is Li Shen going to compete for the reserve? It costs so much.

Li Shimin was also shocked. What on earth was this son doing? The cost was too great. However, Li Shimin was a little happy. What he lacked most was a scholar.

"Li Shen, don't talk nonsense in this hall. Is what you just said true? If you lie, it is a crime of deceiving the emperor." Li Shimin asked again

In fact, Li Shen had already thought about this matter. He did have too much money and couldn't spend it. Moreover, Li Shen felt that his interception this time must have something to do with his family.

During this period of time, the family was so quiet that Li Shen became somewhat slack. This time they have to fight back, and the best way to fight back is to dig up their roots.

"Aye, of course what I said is true, but it requires the cooperation of the imperial court. The land to build the college needs to be provided by the imperial court. The imperial edict is also responsible for it. As for the books for students, I am responsible for it."

"Okay! The imperial court can release these, what do Fang Qing think?" Li Shimin readily agreed. These are not valuable, and books are a big expense.

"Your Majesty, this is a great good deed. Its merits are in the present time and its benefits will be felt in the future. The court should cooperate." Fang Xuanling agreed.

"Yes, Your Majesty, King Ji has spent such a large amount of money to pray for His Majesty, which is enough to show His Highness King Ji's filial piety." Gao Shilian catered.

Only Changsun Wuji remained silent, as if he was thinking about something.

Li Zhi and Li Tai indeed looked at Li Chengqian with a gloating attitude, especially Li Zhi's eyes sparkling.

One by one, the ministers began to praise Li Shen for his filial piety and righteousness.

On the other hand, the face of the aristocratic family is not very good. They established so many colleges at one time and studied together from the beginning of enlightenment to the imperial examination.

In 20 years from that decade, the number of people taking the imperial examination may have doubled. Although the current imperial examination is still a recommendation system,

But if the court intervenes, it is likely to change the system.

But Kong Yingda couldn't agree to anyone who dared to object at this time. This was to help his ancestors preach.

And then Li Shen spoke again

"Aye, the construction is going to start in the spring of next year. We are going to build it together, recruit more people, and strive to complete the construction within one year.

Tomorrow, news will be published in the newspaper. While recruiting people, it will also let the people of Tang Dynasty experience Aye's grace. "

"Okay, I've agreed. The three provinces will discuss the location to build the college as soon as possible. I will solve the problem as soon as possible," Li Shimin happily agreed.

"Ah, there are many students in the Imperial College, and there are also many in Chongren Hall. I think they should go to the prefectures and counties to experience it. This will be very helpful for them to become officials in the future." Li Shen came up with another clever idea,

But that may not be the case for literati,

However, Li Shen thought it was good. It was necessary for educated young people to go to the countryside and receive re-education from poor and lower-middle peasants.

At this time, Li Shen realized that what his grandfather had asked was so right, otherwise these literati would think of him too much.

"Let me think about this and talk about it later." Li Shimin actually had this idea, but he knew that some methods were needed.

Not suitable for discussion at this time.

As Wang De retired from the court, the ministers began to walk out of the Tai Chi Hall.

"Mr. Cui, you are a little impulsive today," Lu Chengqing whispered to Cui Renzhi as he walked out of the Tai Chi Hall.

"Yes, Mr. Cui, there is no need to do such a small thing. What do you think? King Ji's revenge is coming soon. After fighting for so many years, haven't you seen it yet? He is a man who must avenge his revenge, and He is the one who wants to dig up the roots. Alas!"

Cui Renzhi said nothing and looked ugly. These people were all blaming themselves.

He raised his head and saw Li Shen on the steps winking at him, as if he was showing off his power.

"Cui Yushi, I told you not to mess with me in the future. This king is not a few years ago. Now I have nothing but money. Hahahaha"

"Hmph~" Cui Renzhi became angry when he saw Li Shen's triumphant face, snorted coldly and turned around to leave.

Li Shen waved to Cui Renzhi, and then walked towards the palace gate in a swaggering manner.

What he didn't notice was that Changsun Wuji behind him had been looking at Li Shen.

"Uncle, Lao Shi has some ideas. I think we should be more careful." Li Zhi came to Changsun Wuji at some point.

"The words of King Jin are serious. His Royal Highness Prince Ji has always been generous. Now he is praying for His Majesty. Of course, he will be more generous." Changsun Wuji smiled slightly.

He had long seen Li Zhi's ambition, otherwise he would not have been able to stay in Chang'an. There is nothing simple about these old foxes.

Li Zhi secretly cursed the old fox, but said with a smile on his face:

"Whether it is yes or no, my uncle knows it in his mind, we will wait and see."
