Li Shimin

Chapter 791
Although Li Xuan's words didn't wake up these scholars like a drum at dusk and a bell at dawn, they gave them a severe blow.

At least, let these scholars truly realize their status.

So, they began to be honest, and under the leadership of Li Chang, they went to their respective positions!
As for Li Xuan, after returning to the main house, he gradually calmed down after drinking a cup of hot tea.

After a while, Li Chang opened the door, walked in from the outside, and bowed his hands to Li Xuan.

"Your Majesty, those scholars are all arranged!"

"good!"

Li Xuan nodded slightly, then remembered something, and asked Li Chang: "Housekeeper, did this king scold you a little bit hard just now?"

"Your Majesty is strict with those scholars for their own good. In the eyes of this old servant, it is not so cruel!"

Li Chang said.

"Ok!"

Li Xuan nodded slightly, thought for a while, and ordered again: "Housekeeper, go get a piece of paper and a pen!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Li Chang responded, then hurriedly walked to the desk beside him, picked up a piece of white paper and a pen, and placed them in front of Li Xuan.

Li Xuan directly picked up the pen and wrote on the paper:

"Scholars should be familiar with the books of sages and sages, imitate the sages, master the knowledge of the world, and know how to study all things in the world and understand the truth of all things, so that they can make good use of them, use the principles of all things, and unite knowledge and action to benefit the world. Immortal work!"

After finishing writing, he handed the blank paper to Li Chang.

"Housekeeper, copy 52 copies of this paper and give it to those scholars. This is my king's encouragement to them! In addition, each person will be rewarded with a full copper pen and a stack of one-inch thick white paper. The treatment of Lijiazhuang.

The rest of the treatment is the same as that of the stewards in the house! "

"Your Majesty is merciful!"

Li Chang said quickly.

"Go, I hope these scholars can increase the productivity of my farm, field and forge in Lijiazhuang again!"

Li Xuan waved his hand and said.

Although Li Chang couldn't understand Li Xuan's words, he could still guess some meanings.

He arched his hands at Li Xuan and walked out.

When Li Chang appeared in front of those scholars with a pen and blank paper, all the scholars couldn't help crying with joy.

"I also ask the Chief Manager to tell the king that we will definitely do our best and will never disappoint the high expectations of the king!"

"Very good!"

Li Chang nodded slightly, and continued: "The old man has one more thing to tell you gentlemen, since you have chosen your own work, you can check the books about your work in the library of the King's Bieyuan. Any money is needed.

In addition, if you gentlemen still know that there are other classics left in my Tang Dynasty, which are not in the library of the Great King's Bieyuan, every time a classic is taken back, the King will reward you with money! "

"Thank you housekeeper!"

All the scholars couldn't help but beam with joy.

In the next few days, a group of scholars were completely immersed in their respective jobs.

Every day, I go out early and return late, either in the library of other courtyards, or in the forging workshop, glass greenhouse, or in the chicken, duck and pig pen.

at the same time.

In Chang'an City, the dignitaries of the aristocratic families also recovered from the pain of hot pot one after another, and began to eat hot pot again.

Regarding this, Li Shimin, Changsun Wuji and others were full of joy.

In particular, on a certain day, several dignitaries from aristocratic families discovered that His Majesty, the Supreme Emperor and others also came to eat hot pot in the hot pot shop.

As a result, the hot pot shop became even more popular throughout Chang'an City, and those nobles from aristocratic families wished they could eat and live in the hot pot shop every day.

This continued for five or six days.

As the luxurious carriages entered Chang'an City, the patriarchs of families from all over the Tang Dynasty and the vassal princes of different surnames in the Tang Dynasty began to come to Chang'an City one after another.

The diners of the hot pot restaurant have once again become distinguished.

……

On this day, two days before the New Year's Eve, Li Chang walked in with a happy face.

"My lord, great joy!"

"Ok?"

Li Xuan was taken aback, "Why do you like it?"

"Report to Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is back!"

Li Chang said quickly.

"Gao Ming is back?"

Li Xuan was startled, "Gao Ming captured Tubo so quickly?"

"This……"

Li Chang couldn't help laughing, and said: "Your Majesty, forgive me, this old servant doesn't know!"

"Did Gao Ming come back alone, or did the army come back too?"

Li Xuan asked again.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, it seems that His Royal Highness, Duke Dai, and all the young men have returned together!"

Li Chang said again.

"Ok!"

Hearing this, Li Xuan, who had already sat up, lay down lazily again.

"It should be His Majesty who called Gao Ming back, just pay attention normally!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Li Chang responded and walked down.

However, what Li Xuan didn't expect was that the next day, those little bastards came to Li's Village in a bustling manner.

"Disciple pays homage to Master!"

All the little bastards, after performing the etiquette to Li Xuan, all looked at Li Xuan with grievances on their faces.

This surprised Li Xuan, "Why are you acting like a little daughter-in-law, but someone insulted you?"

"Master, you have made me wait for you!"

"Exactly, master, you urged me to lead the troops to attack Tubo, but you alone defended Tuyuhun, eating delicious food and spicy food, while we were suffering from the cold and suffering in Tubo!"

"And I can't eat or drink well in Tubo, but you came back early, and you can still eat the peerless food like hot pot!"

Li Chengqian, Cheng Chusi and the others were more miserable than the other.

"Humph!"

Hearing this, Li Xuan's face immediately sank, "You and a group of bastards don't even know about my king's kindness!"

"Good intentions?"

Li Chengqian, Cheng Chusi and the others couldn't help but widen their eyes, looking at Li Xuan with disbelief.

Li Xuan hummed again.

"My king, let me ask you, if I didn't stay behind Tuyuhun, would you dare to attack Tubo with peace of mind?
Moreover, have you always wanted to lead troops to fight, have you always wanted to build military merits?
If at that time, the king and you attacked Tubo together, would more than half of the great achievements in defeating Tubo be attributed to me?
The most important point, are you happy to attack Tubo? ..."

"Master..."

After listening, Li Chengqian, Cheng Chusi and others couldn't help but look at each other.

They always felt that what their master said was not so right, but no matter how they heard it, the master was thinking about them.

Moreover, without the followers of their own masters, they are the only ones in the entire army who are more familiar with attacking cities with bombs and muskets.

Along the way, basically all siege wars were led by them!
Think about it, they still feel excited now!

"Why did you come back so early, but you have already captured the entire territory of Tubo?"

Li Xuan asked again.
