Great Tang princess

Chapter 371 The door to the new world
It didn't take long for Tianhou's new name to be known all over the court. In order to avoid taboos, almost all the homonyms in the future cannot be used.

Even the name of Crown Prince Li Chongzhao was changed overnight by Li Xian to Li Chongrun.

At the same time, all the tricks of ordering the royal clans to send their children to the capital were also sent out to the territories of the various vassal kings.

There is no way to fake this kind of thing. The royal family has Zongzheng Temple, which is responsible for registering the genealogy of the royal family members. Each royal family member has several children in their family, and they remember clearly whether they are male or female.

At the same time as the edict was issued, Li Yuechen's school immediately mobilized staff.

The teachers of the culture class are mainly Lu Zhaolin and Princess Xuancheng respectively. As for the ideological and moral courses, Li Yuechen can only take them personally.

At present, only the outline of the textbook has been completed, and the specific details need to be further improved.

After thinking about it, I decided to go to my mother to discuss it.

When he came to Renshou Hall, Li Yuechen looked serious: "Aniang, I have something to discuss with you."

"Speak!" Wu Zetian picked up the teacup, looked at the memorial and took a sip.

"My boy plans to put Taizong's "Emperor Model" into the ideological and moral courses." Li Yuechen said surprisingly.

Hearing these words, Wu Zetian froze in place, and the hand that was about to put down the teacup also stopped in mid-air.

She raised her eyebrows and stared at her daughter with still bright eyes: "Why?"

Li Yuechen said slowly: "These children of the royal family will one day become company commanders, brigade commanders, and even generals. After a hundred years, the children will grow old. At that time, the royal family's business will also need them to take over... As managers, they should all learn The way of thinking like an emperor... The most important thing is that they should understand from an early age that being an emperor is a responsibility, not an enjoyment."

Her meaning was very clear, and she still hoped that the members of the royal family would understand one thing from an early age - being an emperor is not a good thing at all!

At least some people can get rid of the idea of ​​being an emperor since they were young, and save them from doing things in the future.

If this point is clarified, if you still want to be the emperor, then at least put the competition on the bright side. Healthy competition is much better than vicious competition.

Listening to her daughter's explanation, Wu Zetian was a little puzzled: "This... I don't know if it will work as a mother, can Chen'er be sure?"

Li Yuechen nodded: "Of course."

She is sure that she does, because the book written by a great man after more than a thousand years has not been blocked, otherwise the public would not know that power grows out of the barrel of a gun, right?
So there is no need to hide some things, it is better to show them fully, let them all understand, and then make their own choices.

"Very well, Chen'er can decide on his own." Wu Zetian nodded.

At this point, she felt that she was inferior to her daughter.

As an ancient person, perhaps she can see decades or even hundreds of years later, but it is impossible for her to see another system that spans thousands of years.

But the daughter is different. She seems to be able to see what the world will look like after the system is complete.

So she left this matter to her daughter to decide, and her own ability was limited to this.

"Then since Aunt agrees, why don't you help me explain Di Fan if you have time?" Li Yuechen asked with a smile.

For children, Emperor Fan is still a bit difficult to understand, so annotations are needed to reduce the difficulty of teaching.

Wu Zetian raised his eyebrows: "Since Chen'er brought this up on his own initiative, why did he explain it for Mother?"

"Oh, mother, just help me out, children are not good at doing this kind of thing!" Li Yuechen shook her arm lightly twice, then stood behind her and gently massaged her shoulders.

"Hmph..." Wu Zetian snorted coldly, "Okay, okay, don't play tricks here, I will help you when mother is free!"

Li Yuechen chuckled, lowered his head and smacked her face: "Thank you, Ma'am!"

"Go, go, go...how old are you still doing this..." Wu Zetian waved his hands in disgust, and wiped his face with a handkerchief.

"Okay, that kid will leave first!" He said, kissed her on the other side of the cheek, and then got up and left in a hurry.

Wu Zetian behind him couldn't help smiling, and then continued to pick up the memorial and read it.

……

Three months passed in a blink of an eye, and when the scorching heat of June came, the vassal kings from all over the country basically obediently sent their children here according to the content of the edict.

Although I understand that most of this is to control them, I have no choice but dare not refuse.

Among the children sent here, the oldest was no more than ten years old, and the youngest was only five or six years old. It was the first time they left their parents and came to the capital, and they all felt a little uncomfortable.

It's okay for the older ones, those who are only five or six years old basically stay with their brothers and sisters, or stay with the servants who come with them.

The children were first arranged to live in a post house specially for receiving officials, but their activities were not restricted.

So in the past few days, these relatives who have never met before have also begun to get acquainted with each other, and since they are all children, they soon played together.

They discussed the delicious food here, the crispy mountain that they can get almost every day, and the soldiers standing straight near the post house, wearing black military uniforms like dummies.

Not long after, the children sent by the feudal lords from all over the country arrived in Dongdu, and Li Yuechen immediately arranged for them to enter the school in the barracks.

Considering the safety of these children, Li Yuechen deliberately moved the school exclusively for them into the military area.

……

Several luxurious four-wheeled carriages were driving on the dusty hard road, and a group of children sat in the carriages chatting with each other in surprise.

They discussed how stable the carriage was, sitting without bumping their buttocks at all, and poking their heads out from time to time to look at the scenery outside.

Although I have never been to Dongdu, I have heard a lot from my parents. I imagined that this place should be a very prosperous place, but seeing it with my own eyes now, I feel that it has exceeded their imagination.

Sitting in a four-wheeled carriage that had never been seen before, walking on the extremely hard road, surrounded by people in black military uniforms who were full of energy to protect them.

A few daring children poked their heads out to look at the scenery on the side of the road, and saw that some people had wheels on their shoes, sliding across the street at a high speed, and a group of servants ran behind.

But what surprised me the most was the attitude of the civilians towards the soldiers.

These children were born in the upper class and understood the existence of class from an early age.In places, soldiers protected them, no matter where they went, the civilians looked terrified.

But here, when the people on the side of the road saw the soldiers in black military uniforms, they just politely stepped aside, but not only did they not have a sense of fear in their eyes, but they even faintly admired them.

Moreover, the women here don't wear curtains when they go to the streets, and they show their appearance generously, and some bold ones even hand them fruits to the soldiers in black military uniforms.

Instead, the soldier waved his hand shyly to express his refusal, then walked forward quickly with his head bowed, causing a burst of laughter.

This kind of atmosphere is something they will never see in the local area. Ordinary people usually hide away when they see soldiers.

The carriage slowly drove out of the city and stopped slowly outside the gate of the military camp at the foot of Mang Mountain.

The children all poked their heads out of curiosity, but they stopped suddenly for some reason.

Suddenly heard the sound of hooves, and saw a white figure galloping on a tall black horse.

After coming to the front, Li Yuechen jumped off the horse, turned around neatly, stood at the gate of the barracks, and looked at the group of children on the carriage in front of him.

Although they have never met, Li Yuechen's identity is still easy to guess. Several older children have already got off the carriage and saluted respectfully: "I have seen Her Royal Highness!"

"Exemption!" Li Yuechen raised his hand, "Now, everyone get out of the car!"

After the princess spoke, the children got out of the car, obediently stood in a row at the gate of the barracks, and saluted respectfully.

Then he looked curiously at the straight hardened road behind her, and the street trees on both sides swayed gently with a breeze.

Different names were written on the signs hanging on the branches. When the wind blew, they collided with each other, making a crisp sound.

"These plaques hanging on the tree are the martyrs of Qianniuwei. They are all soldiers who sacrificed for the Tang Dynasty!" Li Yuechen introduced loudly, "Remember, when you walk this road in the future, you are not allowed to laugh and fight. Make a fuss!"

Hearing her serious face, the children immediately became serious too.

Li Yuechen waved his hand, and the soldiers in charge of standing guard immediately moved away from the horse, and the children followed Li Yuechen into the barracks.

Some of them looked up curiously at the wooden sign on the tree, chanting those names easily.

Maybe there are a few of them, thinking about what they did, why the princess said they were heroes...

Passing through the barracks, the children looked curiously at the occasional soldiers who passed by. They were dressed in colorful camouflage uniforms, lined up in two teams, and walked neatly.

There was a curious look in the eyes of several children, and they even looked a little eager to try, as if they wanted to try to imitate their steps.

Li Yuechen didn't pay attention to them either, but a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Sure enough, children are the easiest to shape.

All the way to the campus behind the barracks, Li Yuechen led them into one of the classrooms.

There are a total of dozens of these children, and they will be divided into different classes according to their ages. However, school has not officially started today, so it is better to let them know what to do next.

Let each of them find a seat to sit down, Li Yuechen stood on the podium, and said loudly: "As the royal family, I am the greatest luck, because I was born high above; but in the future, as the royal family, I will also be The greatest misfortune for me! Because we will all lose our freedom, and we can only sacrifice our whole lives, even our lives, for Datang!"

"You, you will study and live here in the future. When you reach a certain age, you will enter the army and become a soldier protecting the Tang Dynasty! In the future, some of you will become generals, some will become vanguard officers, and some may die in battle !"

Speaking of this, the children on the opposite side were obviously taken aback, obviously they did not expect that their future would be like this.

The younger ones may not understand it, but the older ones already understand the concept of "death".

"In the future, you will live here without servants serving you. You have to do everything yourself, and you have to learn to take care of yourself and each other!" Li Yuechen put his hands on the podium and smiled slightly, "You need to adapt There are still many things to do, but I promise, you will get used to it."

……

In this way, a group of royal children officially entered the adaptation period.

In the first week, they were not allowed to start classes right away, but assigned dormitories to them, and told them how to use the facilities in the dormitory building and so on.

At the same time, let them adapt to the routine life of getting up every day when they hear the drumbeat, and then take them for a tour.

Originally, these children had only a curious attitude towards Qianniuwei, and even after all the servants were taken away, they felt very uncomfortable without being served.

Just asking them to wash their own socks on the first night made many people cry.

The army, however, never believed in tears, and after three days everyone was washing their own socks and was pretty good at other aspects of personal hygiene.

At the end of the first week, just in time for the joint training of the grenadiers and artillerymen, the children stood on the top of the hill, feeling the flickering fire and the deafening explosion at the foot of the hill, and their eyes widened.

The first person to speak was Li Linghui, a girl who was only twelve or thirteen years old. She asked cautiously, "Auntie, will I be able to manipulate such weapons in the future?"

Her father is Li Yuechen's half-brother Li Lian, so she calls Li Yuechen her aunt.

Li Yuechen nodded: "It's possible, it depends on what kind of work you are good at."

Many children opened their eyes wide, felt the faint vibration from their feet, smelled the smell of gunpowder smoke in the air, and stood there in a daze.

It was as if a huge double door slowly opened in front of them, and a bright but not dazzling light shot out from the crack of the door. Behind the door was a brand new world.

……

Li Yuechen's side was proceeding in an orderly manner, and Empress Wu Zetian's side was not idle either.

Recently, taking advantage of work breaks, I sent Di Fan annotated and sent it to her. At the same time, I didn't forget to arrange for Shangguan Wan'er to pay attention to the movement of the royal family.

Shangguan Wan'er said that the hidden guards haven't been trained yet, so they can only get some superficial information, but it's not a big problem if they just pay attention to the movement.

Wu Zetian was not in a hurry. Even if they rebelled, they would definitely have to have steps such as plotting, planning, and recruiting troops. This is definitely not something that can be acted on immediately.

What's more, the current situation is that Tianhou is forcing them to rebel, and it is even more impossible to take action in advance.

It’s even hard to say whether they will rebel in the end, or that sentence, not everyone has the courage to rebel.

Especially now that the punishment has changed, rebellion is not as simple as beheading, it will be delayed!It makes people feel that this is something that requires courage.
