The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 2246
"Teacher, Emperor Father didn't say anything. He just asked the students to stay with the teacher until the teacher returned to Chang'an City." Li Jue said.

Xuan Shijing nodded when he heard the words, and said with a helpless smile: "It turned out that I was planning to let me go back to Chang'an, but there is no rush for this matter. Let's talk about it after there is any big movement in Chang'an City. If His Royal Highness is interested in staying here If not, the minister has nothing to say."

If Li Jue wants to stay, this is not up to Xuan Shijing to decide. If someone wants to stay, Xuan Shijing can't drive him out either, but since they want to stay, they have seen that this yard can't accommodate any extra people. It's full, so you can find another place to live, and he won't worry about it.

"Teacher" Li Jue seemed to want to say something, but he couldn't speak.

Xuan Shijing's current appearance made him very sad.

Maybe it's a gap.

It is true that Xuan Shijing does not need to worry about Li Jue's residence. His Royal Highness's accompanying guards will arrange everything, including the Prince's food and accommodation, and the Prince's personal safety. It is their responsibility. His Royal Highness does not live here. It is better in a small yard, and it is also convenient for them to arrange protection.

Li Jue came out this time and brought a total of fifteen people with him. Even if Li Jue could live in this courtyard, the guards accompanying him would have nowhere to stay. How to protect Li Jue without the guards, so Xuan Shijing did not take the initiative Bao Da takes this responsibility, if he keeps Li Jue, then Li Jue's safety issue will definitely become his responsibility, so he doesn't talk too much, and he doesn't make trouble for himself, even if the person in front of him is his student .

Now Li Jue's status is that the crown prince is greater than Qi Guogong's student, Xuan Shijing sees this more clearly.

Li Jue still lived nearby, and the guards he accompanied bought a larger house nearby than the one where Xuan Shijing lives now, and the whole group settled there, and the living conditions of the house over there were very low. It's much better than Xuan Shijing's side.

No matter Xuan Shijing doesn't care about these things, he can live here as long as he comes to live, and it doesn't hinder his work anyway.

Early the next morning, Xuan Shijing, Gao Jun, and Chang Le went up the mountain with tools and saplings after breakfast as usual.

As soon as Xuan Shijing left the courtyard, Li Jue didn't have much time to get the news.

"Your Highness, Qi Guogong has left the courtyard with people and headed up the mountain."

When he heard the news, Li Jue was still having breakfast, put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hands, and said to the people around him, "Let's go."

He also wanted to go up the mountain with Xuan Shijing.

Xuan Shijing and the others are very familiar with the way up the mountain after several days, but this is the first time for Li Jue to come here.

Walking up the winding sheep farm path, after Li Jue saw the scenery on the mountain, he seemed to understand a little bit what Gao Jun told him yesterday.

There should have been quite a few people on this mountain with the thickness of two people hugging each other, but now it seems that only the roots of the trees are left, and the trees in some places have been cut down in pieces, because the people who felled the trees here There should be a lot of people, and even the surrounding shrubs have been destroyed. Even after such a long time, it still hasn't returned to its original appearance, but now, these places where the trees have been cut have been replanted On the sapling.

These saplings were planted by Xuan Shijing, Gao Jun, and Chang Le. At this time, there were no fast-growing poplars. Therefore, the saplings they planted were all available here. The very common saplings would grow to two It's so thick and strong when people hug each other, I don't know how many decades it takes.

It is said that it takes ten years to grow a tree and a hundred years to educate a person. In fact, ten years is not enough time for a big tree to grow so strong.

In Xuan Shijing's hometown in the countryside, there was a big poplar tree outside the neighbor's yard. When he was six or seven years old, that tree looked like that. When he was 26 and seven years old, he went home to see it, and more than 20 years had passed. The tree is still the same.

How can it be so easy to really grow up.

Walking up the mountain along the path, he soon heard the sound of someone working. Following the sound, Li Jue also saw Xuan Shijing and the three of them.

"Teacher." Li Jue stepped forward and saluted.

Xuan Shijing raised his head, saw Li Jue, stopped what he was doing, straightened up and said with a smile, "The crown prince is here."

While speaking, he raised his hand and wiped the sweat off his face indiscriminately.

"Yes, I heard Gao Jun talk about the situation on the mountain here before, but I didn't expect it to be so serious." Li Jue said.

No matter how aptly described by others, it is still not as shocking as what I saw with my own eyes.

"This is not the most serious." Xuan Shijing said: "But now that we have discovered it, there is no problem."

If it continues like this, what happens in the future will be the most serious.

The mountain has already been excessively deforested. There are so many people living at the bottom of the mountain. The people have to light fires and cook. They must go up the mountain to cut firewood on weekdays. In addition, the villages at the bottom of the mountain rely on the mountain to cut firewood to go to towns and cities. There are also many people who sell firewood for a living. If this continues, there will be fewer and fewer resources on the mountain for the people to live on, just like a person whose body is getting more and more empty, and there will definitely be big problems.

When there is a heavy rain, there will be mudslides, landslides and other disasters. There are so many people living under the mountain.

Even if there is heavy rain at that time, the government will let them move out in advance, they will not be obedient.

First, I can’t keep up with my thoughts, and second, I can’t bear to go home.

"Teacher, is he going to stay here?" Li Jue asked, "Compared to here, the imperial court needs the teacher more."

Xuan Shijing laughed when he heard this.

"His Royal Highness, I didn't come here because I evaded the responsibility of being an official. The prince forgot that I can be regarded as a half-criminal minister now. Impeached by the royal censor of the court, even if I am in Chang'an, I have nothing to do." If you can’t do it, it’s better to stay here, at least you can do your part and do something good.”

Li Jue couldn't accept Xuan Shijing's words, because he also knew that his teacher did nothing wrong, but the momentum of the Xuan family was too strong, even if the teacher didn't go to court and had no power in his hands, but The Xuan family is still too powerful, so powerful that his father fears it, and makes his father think that after he ascends the throne in the future, the Xuan family will cause trouble for him, and he will not be able to deal with the Xuan family. Start early.

Everything my father did was for the sake of the Li family forever, and for my own sake, what else could Li Jue say?

Compared with his father, it is obvious which weight is more important.
