Zhenguan Han-in-law

Chapter 165 I Don't Want To Chat With You
Chapter 161

Wei Hao wants to go back to recharge his batteries, so he can watch the fun at night. Anyway, he and his captain are very familiar with the Jinwu Guards. They are all people who have been in prison together. It's okay, the most is to go to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, where there is its own VIP room, but Li Shimin won't let Wei Hao go.

"Father-in-law, it's okay, don't worry, they won't catch you!" Wei Hao stood at the door and said happily to Li Shimin.

"Don't go, I'm going tomorrow during the day. If you dare to go tonight, I won't let you sit in the cell until you come out for the New Year this time, and I won't let you go!" Li Shimin warned Wei Hao.

When Wei Hao heard that, he was so happy. He didn't have to be on duty when he was in prison. He could sleep in the cell every day and play cards when he woke up. There is such a good thing.

"Okay! Father-in-law, it's a deal!" Wei Hao said excitedly to Li Shimin.

"Huh?" Li Shimin didn't feel right. He was so happy to threaten him. Then he thought, this kid doesn't want to come to the palace to be on duty.

"If you dare to go, if you dare to go, you will be on duty in the palace starting tomorrow, and you don't have to take turns." Li Shimin threatened Wei Hao again.

Wei Hao's face immediately turned down, and he stared at Li Shimin very depressed.

"Don't go. At that time, those people from the aristocratic family can't find anyone to vent their anger. You send it up. If they don't bite you to death, your father-in-law will arrest you again. Can you calm down? During this time, father-in-law Busy enough! Gao Ming is going to get married in about [-] days, I tell you, I don't have time to take care of your affairs." Li Shimin stared at Wei Hao and said helplessly.

"Hey, let's do it!" Wei Hao said with a sigh, still a little regretful in his heart, it would be great if he could watch the excitement.

"Okay, come and sit down, and chat with my father-in-law about the book city." Li Shimin said to Wei Hao.

Wei Hao is very helpless, you are an emperor, such a busy person, you actually ask yourself to chat, but it seems that you can't do it without chatting.

"Well, pour him a glass of water, and get some fruit!" Li Shimin ordered Wang De beside him.

Wang De immediately smiled and nodded.

"Thank you!" Wei Hao also said to Wang De.

"Master Wei, you're being polite, I'll get you the little one right away!" Wang De also said happily.

Although Wei Hao is a fool, he is very polite to himself. Every time he sees him, he greets him very straightforwardly, so Wang De also likes Wei Hao very much.

"It's set up in Xicheng, how many people do you think will go to Xicheng?" Li Shimin looked at Wei Hao and asked.

"Father-in-law, you are thinking wrong, the establishment of the book city is not only for them to read books, but also for them to copy books.

The bookstore provides paper for free, and it doesn’t cost much, but those who can read, when they see a good book, they will use paper to copy it. In this way, the number of books in our Tang Dynasty will increase.

If you think about it, let’s say 1000 people in Chang’an City go to the library to read books, even if they can transcribe a book in ten days, then on average, 100 books are transcribed in a day, and 3000 books in a month.

And these books, spread out, are very useful to them and those relatives and friends around them. In this way, there will only be more and more readers.

However, there are more than 1000 people in Chang'an City who will go to the library. Not to mention other things, just those servants in my house, and those friends of my father. What about the children of the common people around Chang'an City?
They will fight for such an opportunity, and they won't see results in one or two years, but what about three, five, or ten years later?
Father, when the time comes, the imperial examination will increase the number of ordinary children. By the way, we talked about studying. Father-in-law, I want to discuss something with you. I want to open a school. Do you think it will work? "Wei Hao spoke to Li Shimin as he spoke.

"You, start a school?" Li Shimin felt that Wei Hao's words made sense at first, but when Wei Hao said that he was going to open a school, Li Shimin was really taken aback.

Who is Wei Hao, the unlearned and incompetent person in everyone's eyes, who can't even write calligraphy well, who wants to open a school, what's the trouble?
"Well, no, father-in-law, what kind of eyes do you have, do you look down on people?" Wei Hao nodded, and then saw Li Shimin's contemptuous and funny eyes, Wei Hao was so depressed, stared at Li Shimin and asked.

"You say, just you, when you open the school, you just say, who will go? People who can't write well. Also, if your students ask you questions in the future, how do you answer them? How many books have you read? ?" Li Shimin stared at Wei Hao and asked a series of questions.

"No, father-in-law, you, I, it's fine, I won't tell you, this time is the result of my discussion with the family. Originally, I wanted to recruit 500 children from poor families to teach, but the family refused. It will be discussed later, and only 300 people can be recruited each year!" Wei Hao was so depressed, he looked at Li Shimin and said very unhappy.

"Wait a minute, what did you just say?" Li Shimin immediately stopped Wei Hao at this moment.

"What?" Wei Hao looked at Li Shimin in confusion.

"You just said that it was agreed with the aristocratic family to recruit 300 children from poor families every year? Did they agree?" Li Shimin stared at Wei Hao and asked, afraid that he had just misheard.

The aristocratic family has always opposed the aristocratic schools that recruit the children of the aristocratic family. Now the schools under the Imperial College are all recruiting the children of lords and officials, and there are no ordinary children at all.

Most of the officials are from aristocratic families. In fact, more than [-]% of the schools under the Imperial College are from aristocratic families. Now Wei Hao said that he would recruit children from poor families.

"Well, yes!" Wei Hao nodded and said.

"You, why didn't you say it earlier, ah?" Li Shimin stood up a little excitedly at this moment, and walked quickly in the study with his hands behind his back.

"Father-in-law, why are you so excited? Didn't you just say no?" Wei Hao also looked at Li Shimin and shouted.

"You didn't speak clearly. Father-in-law thought you were going to recruit children from aristocratic families. Who knew you were going to recruit children from poor families?" Li Shimin stared at Wei Hao and said, this kid just exposed his faults.

"There's something wrong with me, I recruit them?" Wei Hao muttered.

"You boy, if you hadn't been left here today, my father-in-law wouldn't have known about it. Well, it was done well. However, my father-in-law is very curious, how did you get the family to compromise? It's not easy. What happened in the library in the morning, You have also seen that they are firmly against it, but they have no objection to your opening of the school." Li Shimin stopped, sat opposite Wei Hao, and asked.

"I can't tell you, hehe, anyway, they are afraid that I will blow up their mansion and make me angry, and I will not let them go!" Wei Hao smiled proudly at Li Shimin.

"What's in that box?" Li Shimin stared at Wei Hao and continued to ask.

Wei Hao's eyes widened at this moment, staring at Li Shimin and shouting very loudly: "Father-in-law, you watch me!"

"Fart, why is your father-in-law watching you? Father-in-law is watching them. Besides, can father-in-law not care about that negotiation, can he not know the result of the negotiation, tell me, what is in that box?" Li Shimin continued to ask Wei Hao up.

"Gunpowder, I told them that if they don't agree to my conditions, I'll light the box and we'll finish the game together!" Wei Hao immediately turned to Li Shimin seriously.

"roll!"

"Eh!"

"Come back!" Li Shimin couldn't believe Wei Hao's words, but Wei Hao stood up immediately when Wei Hao was told to leave, Li Shimin could only call Wei Hao to stop him.

"Father-in-law, what do you want me to do?" Wei Hao looked at Li Shimin impatiently.

"Sit down, what are you going to do about the school? Just do it yourself, father-in-law doesn't like it. Don't waste this opportunity, it's not easy for the aristocratic family to let go." Li Shimin asked Wei Hao.

"Well, I definitely won't teach them the Four Books and Five Classics. I can teach everything else! Father-in-law, you send me a few powerful people to sit in the town, and then let the prince come as a sacrificial wine, it will be perfect Basically, I don't need to do any work." Sitting there, Wei Hao smiled smugly as he spoke.

"Well, send someone to teach, father-in-law can understand, but let the prince serve as sacrificial wine, why, tell father-in-law!" Li Shimin asked Wei Hao.

"Hey, you can't even understand such a simple thing. The so-called emperor and courtier, think about it. From now on, if students are recruited, they will definitely not be able to graduate from the school in four or five years. Those outstanding students, they also need to start working from the eighth and ninth grades, and some even need to go to work in the local area, oh, to be an official!
In this case, it is impossible to be promoted to the fifth rank or above without training below for more than ten years. There are still three, five, seven or eight years for the fifth rank and above. This way, it will be more than 20 years. Father-in-law, you count it, more than 20 years, How old are you? At that time, do you still have so much energy to deal with government affairs?

Most of the government affairs are not handed over to the prince. Moreover, when the time comes, those old officials who follow your father-in-law, such as those princes, will be left. If there is no one from His Royal Highness in the court, how will the family be restrained? people, right? "Wei Hao sat there, talking analytically to Li Shimin.

When Li Shimin heard it, he sat there thinking about it, and then stood up involuntarily, thinking about Wei Hao's words in the court hall with his hands behind his back. He appreciated Wei Hao's words, and it can be said that Wei Hao was really for the Tang , for the royal family, but as an emperor, he has his own considerations.

"Hao'er, for this matter, my father-in-law thinks it's better to let Kong Yingda serve as the sacrificial wine!" Li Shimin then looked at Wei Hao and said.

"Kong Yingda, why? He is useless as a sacrificial wine. Few of those students will be able to be officials at that time. How can they control those aristocratic families? Besides, father-in-law, how much is it to train an official who can serve the court?" It's difficult, the family is so domineering now, and there is no strong backer behind it, who can stop it and let Kong Yingda take over, it's not as good as your father-in-law." Wei Hao immediately said to Li Shimin with contempt.

Li Shimin heard it, too, those poor children may not even have the chance to be promoted.

"Then the father-in-law will be the one!" Li Shimin said with determination.

"That won't work, father-in-law, you should, the aristocratic family thinks that I am completely on your side, and they still want to win me over!" Wei Hao immediately objected, then looked at Li Shimin and asked: " Father-in-law, why don't you let my uncle be the one? I think my uncle is pretty good!"

"You don't understand. It's not that you don't want him to be a man. It's that you can't let him be a man now. If you want to be a man, it will take three to five years. We'll talk about it when he has a stable personality."

Li Shimin didn't tell Wei Hao the truth, this truth can't be told, it's too scary.

He also thought that Wei Hao definitely didn't think about those levels, and this also made Li Shimin happy. It was precisely because he didn't think about it that Wei Hao thought about doing Datang wholeheartedly.

"Father-in-law, you are so mysterious. Anyway, I told you how to do it. You can figure it out. Don't say that my son-in-law can't do things well. I can't be this sacrificial wine!" Wei Wei Hao sat there, talking depressedly.

"Well, let your father-in-law think about it. This may seem like a small matter, but it is actually very important. Father-in-law has to be careful." Li Shimin immediately comforted Wei Hao.

This kid has made a great achievement this time, but he can't publicize this great achievement to the outside world, but he remembers it in his heart. This is a slash at the family, so why not make Li Shimin excited.

"Why don't you let Changsun Wuji be the sacrificial wine?" Li Shimin looked at Wei Hao and asked.

"Ah? Father-in-law, my uncle is a clean and honest official, how will I recommend those students to go up, besides, my uncle is so busy, so he can't do it." Wei Hao immediately shook his head and said.

Just kidding, if you make him a wedding dress yourself, what can you do?No one can let Changsun Wuji be the one.

"Then who do you think should be?" Li Shimin looked at Wei Hao helplessly and asked.

For this matter, we must pay attention to Wei Hao's opinion. After all, Wei Hao made this. When Wei Hao comes to say, I don't want to open it, so I can find someone.

"No, father-in-law, just tell me why I can't be my uncle. I think my uncle is very good and kind." Wei Hao looked at Li Shimin puzzled and asked.

"This child, father-in-law didn't say that Gao Ming is not good, but it's not suitable for him now. How about letting Fang Xuanling take care of him?" Li Shimin looked at Wei Hao and continued to ask.

Wei Hao thought about it for a while, nodded and said: "That's fine, the real estate minister is fine, no matter in terms of prestige or ability, it's okay, but, hey, I still want to put this Give it to my uncle, as a congratulatory gift for him, and I will have to find a way to give a gift after you do this, so sad!" Wei Hao looked worried.

"You can just give it away, don't make it so complicated, he has everything, Hao'er, don't tell him about this, lest he get angry, his father-in-law won't let him be, think about it yourself, it's not that you don't trust this child Well, you have to think about it, now that he is in charge, the family will definitely get all the attention on him, and if there is something wrong with him, the family will impeach him, how can he do business for me in the future?

Let's wait for a few years, when this situation has become everyone's default, I will naturally give it to him. Now, I still need to polish him. This child will not let his father-in-law worry. " Li Shimin explained to Wei Hao.

"What are you afraid of? You don't have to be afraid of the aristocratic family." Wei Hao looked at Li Shimin and waved his hands.

When Li Shimin heard it, he smiled a little, so if you are not afraid, who is not?
"Okay, father-in-law, I'll go back first if I have nothing to do, I dozed off!" Wei Hao asked Li Shimin.

"Sit for a while, is it so difficult to chat with your father-in-law? Let me tell you, you must not go. If you go, don't blame your father-in-law for being rude to you." Li Shimin reminded Wei Hao.

Wei Hao looked at Li Shimin very depressed.

"Well, come here, make some tea and save this kid from dozing off. It just so happens that we have nothing to do today, let's have a good chat with the son-in-law. I heard that your warehouse has 10,000+ cash in cash !" Li Shimin looked at Wei Hao with a smile and said.

"Father-in-law, you can't take advantage of my treasury money!" Wei Hao stood up in shock at this moment, staring at Li Shimin and shouted.

"This child, can father-in-law make the idea of ​​that money? Didn't father-in-law go to your house and find that your mansion is very small. Before your master's mansion, father-in-law rewarded 50 acres of land, right? Father-in-law did not remember wrongly? " Li Shimin said, staring at Wei Hao.

"Well, father-in-law, that money is from my family, it's not easy." Wei Hao continued to say to Li Shimin.

"Father-in-law knows, in this way, I will reward you with another 100 mu of land. Your Lord Marquis's mansion covers an area of ​​150 mu, okay?" Li Shimin stared at Wei Hao and continued to ask.

"Ah? There is such a good thing, hey, isn't it right, father-in-law, it seems that the residence of the Marquis has regulations. It can only occupy an area of ​​50 acres, 100 acres for the county government, 150 acres for the county government, 200 acres for the state government, and 250 acres for the county king. 300 mu, the prince's 150 mu, I occupy [-] mu, so isn't that the county prince?" Wei Hao looked at Wei Hao in surprise and asked.

"Stinky boy, after you marry Lizhi, you will be named Duke. This is a custom, you know?" Li Shimin stared at Wei Hao and said with a smile.

"Ah, there is such a good thing, that's fine, why don't you give me more?"

When Wei Hao heard it now, he was so happy, marrying a daughter-in-law can also raise the title, if so, then it is okay to marry a few more, of course this is just a thought, if you say it, you will be beaten to death by Li Shimin, such a scourge his daughter.

"Well, it's not impossible, but you can't build it. The land can be rewarded to you. There is a large lake behind your mansion, covering an area of ​​more than 300 mu. I will reward you for the court. In addition , there is about 100 mu of land next to it, all for you, but now you can only enclose it, and you cannot build a house in it!"

Li Shimin thought about it for a while, this kid won so much face for himself, and this school came out today, and he couldn't publicize it, so he could only reward him secretly, which is fine.
