President of Datang [Transmigration Book]

Li Tan no longer entangled with Zhu Xieli about gifts, because when Zhu Xieli knew that he was not in Liangzhou during the Chinese New Year, all he wanted was to go back to Datang with him.

Li Tan had to do his best to appease the big cat with fried fur. This was the first New Year's Eve since the founding of Shatuo. Is it okay for the king to run away with the king's husband?

Zhu Xieli said sadly, "But you won't be able to celebrate the New Year here every year from now on."

Li Longji died half a month before the new year, and Li Heng died shortly after the new year, and Li Tan always went to pay his respects.

Li Tan said: "From now on, I will go there early every year, and I will come back after offering sacrifices to my father. As for Li Heng... his anniversary is just a matter of meaning. Don't you think I will visit him every year? He is so beautiful. Back then When discussing the posthumous name of the temple name for him, I did not say anything, and I have done my best."

If Li Tan had strongly opposed it, Li Heng's temple name was Suzong, and his posthumous title was Emperor Xuanxiao, the great sage of civilized martial arts. To be honest, Li Tan was dissatisfied at the time, but he just endured it for the sake of Li Chu and the two prime ministers. down.

After all, the absurd things Li Heng did have been recorded in the history books. If he persisted, Li Chu would not be honored as his son.

There are also two prime ministers, Wei Jiansu and Chen Xilie. Li Tan has a good impression of them. If the prime minister did not persuade Li Heng to do those things, it would be considered negligent. Li Tan does not want these two elders to be remembered like this a sum.

Of course, there is no lack of his idea of ​​selling favors to Li Chu and the others, and now it is time for him to collect interest.

The time has entered October, and seeing that the weather is cold and freezing, it is no longer suitable for building cities. Originally, Li Tan planned to wait until the spring of next year if the construction could not be completed by the end of the year. Can't rush.

It turned out that the matter of releasing Liang was very stimulating to the slaves, and the work was completed by the end of September!

On the day when the project was completed, Li Tan planned to go to the academy for a tour, to check and accept it, to see if there was anything inappropriate.

And because this city will be abandoned for a winter, after all, the greening inside will not be done until next spring, so this winter's maintenance must be done well.

In the end, I didn't expect Zhu Xieli to follow, not only him, but He Zhizhang and King Jingzhong were going, and the two of them each brought some of their officials to apply for travel at public expense.

Li Tan was full of black lines: "Now there is only a prototype over there, and there is nothing. What are you going to see? Wait until it is finished next year."

He Zhizhang put his hands together and said, "I can't do it anymore. I'm getting lazy every year. If I don't take advantage of my strength now, I might not have the strength to go and see it in the future."

Li Tan immediately stared: "What is He Laohu talking about? There is a house reserved for you in the academy. As long as you want, you can go back to the academy to provide for the elderly."

He Zhizhang smiled with satisfaction after hearing this, and Gongsun Chui couldn't help but leaned over and asked, "My lord, what about us? What about us?"

Li Tan pushed his big head away: "You? Going to cool off, Mr. He has been the head of the academy anyway, what contribution have you made to the academy?"

Gongsun Chui said indignantly: "When the Pearl Academy was established, I was the one who watched the project."

Li Tan nodded: "Well, according to what you said, the entire imperial court has contributed to the academy and should have a house. What kind of place do you think it is? A resort?"

Gongsun Chui shut up immediately, turned to look at Meng Zhiya, and Meng Zhiya looked up at the sky.

Even he failed to get a house in the academy, let alone others.

However, Li Tan was so strict, which made these people very curious, wondering what the school had become.

Li Tan saw that he didn't want to reject Zhu Xieli, so he simply brought everyone along.

But this time, we have to keep things light and simple, otherwise he and Zhu Xieli will have to prepare for a long time, and it may be half a month after they arrive at the academy.

If so, the carriages of Li Tan and Zhu Xieli are also extremely luxurious.

He nestled comfortably in Zhu Xieli's arms with the hand stove in his arms and asked, "Why did you suddenly think of going to have a look?"

Zhu Xieli replied: "It's Meng Zhiya, who said that the construction of the academy is particularly distinctive, and some of them have a Western style. I haven't been to the west, and I don't know what their style is like, so I just I want to go and see."

Li Tan silently made a note to Meng Zhiya in his heart, with such a big mouth, why can't he hold back his words!

After Zhu Xieli finished answering, he asked again: "Is there anything special about you controlling the house in the Academy so strictly?"

Li Tan nodded and said: "That's right, only those who have made special contributions to various colleges or schools can have a house there, oh, those who promote the development of science and technology by themselves also have a house there, and the house cannot be inherited , that is to say, if this person dies, the house will be returned to the academy."

Zhu Xieli was a little puzzled: "Why?"

Li Tan said: "Because the site is small, you may feel that the school is big when you go now, and the students can't fill the whole school, but the question is the future? If you can press Turkic and Tubo this time, then it may be ten years in the future. There is no need to go to war for a few 20 years, oh, except for the Abbasid dynasty, but when there is no certainty of victory, I don’t think you will take the initiative to send troops, and the fierce oil that the Abbasid dynasty relies on is useless. They probably wouldn't choose to attack us either."

Zhu Xieli nodded: "Yes, if possible, I'm not in a hurry to fight with them. Sha Tuo has been fighting and killing for the past few years. It's time to recuperate."

Li Tan said: "It doesn't take much time. After ten years of gathering, Shatuo will not be what it is now. If there are no major military incidents in 20, 30, or nearly a hundred years, and there is no restriction on births, then the population will be high. To a certain extent, even the students who want to study in the academy may not be able to let it go, so why not build a house for them?"

Zhu Xieli laughed: "You think far enough, if it's not enough, just expand it at that time."

Li Tan nodded: "When Meng Zhiya designed it, I had already left room for expansion, but it's just that the school is a school after all, and they are not allowed to go there for vacation, so except for those who have made great contributions, ordinary people It is impossible to live in, and those people must be obsessed with research, it is normal to give them some convenience, and there are some invisible advantages, their children, whether they were born there or moved there later, because of the special nature of the school. If they are allowed to inherit the house, their children and grandchildren will occupy the resources of the school, which is not fair to the children of common people."

Zhu Xieli said: "So even the children of these people must take the exam if they want to enter the academy?"

Li Tan said frankly: "No one can be an exception, but to be honest, at the beginning, no one will refute any rules I say, but after a long time, the interests of all parties are mixed, and I don't know if it can continue. Hope Academy is a special existence, but it’s too idealistic after all, so I can only do my best.”

Zhu Xieli breathed a sigh of relief. He originally wanted to persuade Li Tan not to think too good, but he didn't think Li Tan was naive, but worried that if things didn't develop as he thought in the future, would he be unbearable?

Seeing that Li Tan was still clear-headed, he felt relieved.

A group of people walked for three days in a row before arriving at the academy.

As soon as he got off the carriage, He Zhizhang couldn't help but express his poetic enthusiasm just facing the city wall and gate, but Li Bai and Du Fu also followed suit.

Li Tan, who was not illiterate, but was not much better than illiterate in poetry, could only stand aside and listen.

The city wall of Xuegong is actually very simple, with white bricks and black tiles, it looks very small and fresh.

After entering the city gate, there is a very wide road in the middle. If calculated according to the lanes of later generations, this road is almost twelve lanes wide.

There are two such wide roads in the city, connecting the four city gates, and in the middle of these four roads, which is also the middle of the city, is the Tongtian Tower, which symbolizes the ladder of human progress.

Xuegong was a very huge city in this era, at least two times the size of Chang'an, but that's it, almost as soon as they entered the city gate, everyone saw the Tongtian Tower in the distance.

Because the distance is too far, the tower body can only be seen vaguely, but looking up, a part of the tower body and the tower top are submerged in the misty white clouds, and the top of the Tongtian Tower is like a castle in the air.

A Tongtian Pagoda has already shocked everyone, Gongsun Chui couldn't help but raised his head and said, "So tall?"

Although the term towering into the clouds has a long history, it is mostly used to describe mountain peaks in this era, and man-made pavilions rarely have this honor.

Li Tan explained from the side: "The Tower of Tongtian is not the tallest, it is not as good as the Mingtang of Heaven, it's just that the terrain where the school is located is already high, so the distance... is also close to the sky, which creates this effect."

Li Tan originally wanted to say that it is also close to the atmosphere, but he thought that everyone might not know the concept of the atmosphere, so he finally swallowed it back.

He Zhizhang withdrew his gaze and said: "The bright hall of heaven, the extravagance and lust, is not as good as one ten thousandth of Tongtian Tower."

Li Tan smiled triumphantly and said, "I think so too. If it's not that it's not suitable for building too high, even if I beat Meng Zhiya, I will let him design a building that is taller than Mingtang Paradise."

He Zhizhang turned to look at him: "Why is it not suitable?"

Li Tan explained: "The terrain here is high. The higher you go, the more difficult it is for people to breathe, and they are also prone to illness. We call this altitude sickness. If it is too high, if some students are weak, they may not be able to adapt. And the elevator is not suitable for such a height before the breakthrough technology."

He Zhizhang nodded: "This is enough, where shall we go now?"

Li Tan smiled: "Of course I went to various colleges, let's go, Meng Zhiya will lead the way!"

Meng Zhiya had no choice but to act as a tour guide dutifully. After the shock of Tongtian Tower, He Zhizhang originally thought that they would never see anything more magnificent and exciting than Tongtian Tower.

However, he found that he was still wrong. Every college has its own characteristics, which made him like a child. After leaving one college, he began to look forward to the appearance of the next college.

At the same time, I still have some regrets. Unfortunately, only the brick, wood and civil structures have been built, and some decorations have not been started. This will have to wait until next spring when the flowers bloom.

This visit lasted for one day, and it was the result of their riding in a carriage. According to Li Tan, after the school is fully opened, those who are not of great merit are not allowed to ride in a carriage or soft sedan chair.

Li Tan has no way to completely eliminate privileges, but he can stipulate for himself, what's wrong with giving them some privileges for those who have a huge influence on the development of human science and technology?

However, in this regard, the two colleges of literature and art are obviously at a disadvantage. The liberation of the mind is indeed important, but it is not easy to make an impact. This is something that Li Tan can't help.

During the visit to the academy, He Zhizhang remained in a state of excitement, which made Li Tan very worried, so he couldn't help but give him two continuous sessions, for fear that something would happen to the old man because of his excitement.

But fortunately, He Zhizhang's health was fine, and there was nothing to worry him about.

When visiting the residential area, the feeling here is not so amazing, but it is also very surprising, because these small courtyards are all designed in Jiangnan style.

Wang Wei was quite good at this. When he saw the delicate and beautiful designs of the small courtyards, he couldn't help but be delighted with Lie Xin, and he also put forward many suggestions of his own.

In terms of functional design, Wang Wei is definitely not as good as Meng Zhiya, but in terms of aesthetics, probably eight Meng Zhiyas are not as good as one Wang Wei.

Li Tan asked Meng Zhiya to write them down and add them later.

The last group of people went to Tongtian Tower.

Tongtian Pagoda is probably the most complete building, because it doesn't need too much decoration, only the painting on each floor is enough, and the bookshelves are arranged row by row.

After seeing them on the first floor, Li Tan led them directly to the top of the tower.

Standing on the top of the tower, overlooking the entire school, watching the buildings of the school looming in the clouds and mist, coupled with the endless plains in the distance, can really open one's mind.

On the way back, He Zhizhang asked, "Did your Majesty ever name the Academy?"

It feels a bit inappropriate to use the original Biyu City in such a majestic school.

Li Tan felt a headache when he heard the name, so he opened his mouth and said, "Wei Ming Academy."

Well, the copy of Weiming Lake happened to happen that there is also a lake in the academy, which serves as the water source for the whole city, so it should be called Weiming Lake at that time.

He Zhizhang: ...

Can I have a snack?

But he didn't bother to argue with Li Tan about this, anyway, the Weiming Academy is pretty good, so he reluctantly explained that... there is no name suitable for this academy, after all, this academy has never been seen before or since.

Li Tan heard He Zhizhang's nonsense with his own ears, and he couldn't help admiring in his heart. A cultural person is a cultural person, and he can make flowers out of anything.

After visiting the academy, Li Tan began to prepare for returning to Datang.

He needs to do almost all the things at hand, but fortunately, Shatuo's economic system... is basically non-existent, and it grows very savagely. All the money depends on the trade in Suma City.

Of course, Liangzhou is not included here. In comparison, Liangzhou is the traditional economic system of the Central Plains.

Li Tan guessed that if he wanted to reform, he would have to wait until next year. It would be better to take it easy this year, not to mention that he and Zhu Xieli have not spared their hands.

Zhu Xieli was very reluctant to leave Li Tan for so long, and stuck to Li Tan's side whenever he had time.

He was so obvious, and he didn't shy away from it. He knew what he didn't know before. If it was a different person, it might really turn into a storm, but Li Tan... this really drove An Lushan away. People, you can't treat people as beasts just because they look gentle and elegant.

Moreover, as for Li Tan's establishment of an academy, and after finishing the academy, he established a school, and by the way, he also came up with something to deal with fierce fire oil in the process, which made everyone admire him very much.

No one would regard him as a male favorite.

Even someone like King Jingzhong secretly gossips with his wife: "Do you think the king sacrificed his beauty to keep His Royal Highness King Ning? He is so powerful, he will definitely be more important in the Tang Dynasty, right? "

Princess Yuan'an was quite speechless after hearing this: "If the king hears your words, wait to be punished. Oh, my uncle will also punish you, believe it or not?"

King Jingzhong didn't pay much attention to Princess Yuan'an saying that Zhu Xieli was going to clean him up, but when he heard that Li Tan was going to clean him up, he couldn't help shrinking his neck and didn't dare to say anything.

Just when Zhu Xieli's separation became more and more serious, Li Tan still had to leave.

On the day of leaving, Zhu Xieli rode guards on his horse and sent him all the way to the border of Shanzhou.

When he arrived at the border, he still didn't want to leave. Li Tan said helplessly, "Do you want to start a war? Go back!"

Zhu Xieli looked at him eagerly: "Oh, when will you come back?"

Li Tan couldn't stand him: "After the first emperor's anniversary, I'll set off and come back right away, okay? The Weiming Academy is still here, so you're worried about something?"

Zhu Xieli thought about it too. The Weiming Academy is where Li Tan's painstaking effort lies, and it is also a place he places high hopes on. Datang will not provide him with such a place.

Zhu Xieli, who was a little relieved, watched Li Tan's guard of honor until he could no longer see him, and then reluctantly left.

Li Tan was actually a little bit reluctant, feeling that after entering Shanzhou, the whole atmosphere was different.

It might be a psychological effect, anyway, he felt like there were a few more shackles on his body.

At this time, Chang'an was also preparing to welcome him. When Li Chu heard that Li Tan was coming back, he seemed very happy for many days.

He received Li Tan almost according to the highest standard that Li Tan could have.

Originally, Li Tan couldn't dispatch the prime minister at this level, but the prime minister didn't object, so no one could say anything.

Li talked about seeing the prime minister leading many officials to greet him on the outskirts of the city, and he couldn't help being startled: "Why did you two come in person? It's freezing cold, get in the car quickly, don't freeze."

Originally, both Chen Xilie and Wei Jiansu were thinking about what they should say when they met Li Tan. If nothing else, they should at least express Li Chu's preferential treatment to him.

I just don't know how much His Royal Highness Prince Ning has changed?

As a result, during this meeting, everyone found that he was still the familiar person, and he still had the familiar way of doing things, and Li Tan now has a more relaxed atmosphere than before.

It's not bad to think about living in Shatuo.

Li Chu thought the same way when he saw Li Tan, and his heart was still a little sore, because the Chinese New Year was approaching, he originally wanted to impress Li Tan with the prosperity of Chang'an, and use his nostalgia for his hometown to make him stay.

It's just that now it seems... people don't miss her at all!

Li Tan briefly told Li Chu about Sha Tuo's recent changes, and Li Chu felt envious when he heard it.

Others may think that he is sick. As the emperor of a big country, he actually envies a small country. Isn't that full of food?

But he is just envious. As an emperor, he will be hindered by various parties from time to time. When Li Tan left, he reminded him that he must gather the power of Jijizhou to the central government as soon as possible.

As a result, almost a year has passed, and he still hasn't been able to gather all of them back.

Listening to his troubles and complaints, Li Tan couldn't help comforting him and said: "It's already very good, it can't be faster, and it will be similar to the late emperor. Those people have been through the late emperor's period and are already sensitive. If you are more radical, they may I’m worried that you will repeat what the late emperor did, and I’m afraid you will rebel again.”

Li Chu adjusted his mood and said: "Look at me, it's rare for you to come back, and I said these troublesome things make you worry."

Li Tan smiled: "You've done a good job, I'm not worried at all, as long as you stay steady and don't rush, it will be fine, everything will be fine."

Li Chu couldn't help asking: "That official system in Shatuo..."

Li Tan said decisively: "Datang can't do it."

Li Chu sighed, he also knew that it would not work, doing so would affect the interests of too many people, and it would also create new conflicts of interest, so it could only be changed little by little. "

Li Tan said: "Sha Tuo can probably give you a reference. It seems to be working well at present, but it has not been a few years. Who can say it is good?"

Li Chu responded, "Do you have any difficulties?"

Li Tan immediately said: "It is true. I built a Weiming Academy, but there are few people in Shatuo, and even fewer people with advanced knowledge. I need some people to support me. Go to my place to give lectures for a period of time. After all aspects of the palace are on track, they will be released."

Li Chu hesitated for a moment: "This... I can't guarantee it, these scholars are not easy to force."

Li Tan waved his hand: "No need to force, no need to force, I will notify those people myself, and anyone who wants to come can come, as long as the court does not object, I am worried that someone will say that I am a traitor, and I will be wronged. Oh, yes , In terms of the academy, it doesn’t matter what nationality it is, no matter where you are, as long as you haven’t committed any crimes and can pass the academy exam, then you can come to study.”

Li Chu's heart moved: "Can Dalang and the others do it too?"

Li Tan was surprised: "Da Lang? The rules of the Weiming Academy are very strict, and life will seem relatively poor in comparison. Can they bear it?"

Li Chu hesitated and said, "Let's wait for them to grow up. It's always good to learn more, and going out for a walk can increase your knowledge, so it's right to study abroad."

Li Tan then said: "Anyway, I've said something ugly, I will punish them if they don't obey the rules when they get there."

Li Chu laughed: "Okay!"

Li Tan didn't have any psychological pressure on what the prince was coming, anyway, he was naturally suppressed by his seniority.

After getting Li Chu's consent, Li Tan started to recruit people when he returned home. Originally, he was still thinking about how to spread the reputation of Weiming Academy.

What he didn't expect was that his relatives and friends in Chang'an helped spread the word.

When he returned to Chang'an, he naturally wanted to live in his mansion. At this time, a group of people came to visit.

Before Li Tan came back, he asked Wang Wei and the others to draw a few paintings, including a bird's-eye view of the academy, and the Tongtian Tower, all of which were hung in the flower hall.

When visitors saw these unfamiliar scenery, they naturally wanted to inquire about it. After coming and going, everyone knew that Weiming Xuegong was a city bigger than Chang'an.

Of course, some people believe it or not, and Li Tan doesn't care, as long as it doesn't delay his recruitment.

Originally, his idea was to recruit about fifteen people. Of course, this is the minimum requirement, and the upper limit is naturally unlimited.

When he first spread the news, Li Tan was worried that no one would go to such a remote place.

It is difficult to change the established impression. No matter how gaudy he said, it is an indisputable fact that the place used to be a grassland.

However, what he didn't expect was that there were hundreds of people who came to sign up on the first day.

Li Tan couldn't believe his ears when he heard it, and said with a smile, "My lord, these people were originally favored by you in various places, and now they want to do something for your lord, and some of them are Those who were born in Langhuan Academy and Mingzhu Academy are also very grateful to the king."

Li Tan felt that he seemed to have underestimated his influence among scholars in the Tang Dynasty. The seeds planted back then finally blossomed into splendid flowers.

No, no, it's not really a flower, it's just a flower bud.

However, although there are a lot of people, Li Tan does not plan to bring everyone there, he still has to pass the exam. The ability to treat.

Li Tan turned his head to look at Qing Kong and asked, "You said... the Chinese New Year exam is coming soon, isn't it a little crazy?"

Before Qing Kong could answer, a little servant came from the palace over there and called him into the palace.

After Li Tan entered the palace, the first thing Li Chu said when he saw him was: "Uncle Huang, for the sake of nephew and uncle, please save some people for me."

Li Chu can't say how he feels now. He also underestimated Li Tan's influence at the beginning, so he agreed very generously. Originally, he also estimated that Li Tan would be able to take away 20 people to the sky, but in the end... he was scared to death. Individual!

Now...if this group of people are all taken away, there might be a breakdown in Datang.

After hearing this, Li Tan laughed and said, "Don't worry, I can't support so many people there."

After hearing this, Li Chu patted his chest and said, "It's okay, it's okay, thank you, Uncle Huang, for your mercy."

While the two of them were chatting and laughing, the military department over there sent news: Tubo invaded Suma City in Shatuo five days ago, Shatuo immediately sent troops to repel Tubo, and chased them for hundreds of miles.

Li Tan: ...

Is it true that the lunatics in Tubo are not new years old?
