Cultivation of chastity

Chapter 29 Libraries

"Set up your mind for the heaven and earth, set up your destiny for the life and the people, follow the sages of the past, and create peace for the world!"

Li Shimin will naturally stare at Li Tai's agricultural school, perhaps with the intention of helping Li Tai in the future, he will naturally care for Li Tai to a certain extent. If Li Tai encounters difficulties, as long as it is not harmful to the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin will do his best help.

Now, although the path Li Tai chose is not a shortcut, it is a step by step step by step.

Although Li Shimin can't understand what Li Tai is doing, as long as what Li Tai does is beneficial to the people, Li Shimin is willing to be Li Tai's backer and let Li Tai go on this road. After all, this is his relationship with Guanyin. The servant's own son.

"The king of Yue has a broad mind. Although he has not reached the championship, he can have such courage and make such a school motto. He is indeed a farmer in the world!" Wei Zheng praised Li Tai beside Li Shimin.

"This kid can't help boasting, can't help but boasting, but he started to actively open up wasteland at the end of February and the beginning of March, which is indeed hard work."

Li Shimin's face was full of smiles, Li Shimin was very satisfied with his son's ability to perform like this.

"However, it is true that when the spring plowing begins in March, the plowing ceremony is going to be held, monks and slaves, come and set the time!"

"Respect the holy decree." Dou Lukuan stood up and said.

"The plan for a year lies in the spring. What kind of harvest this year will depend on the cultivation in this spring!" Li Shimin said.

At this time, Dou Jing came out and said, "I have seen a saint. A few days ago, King Yue discussed with me about locust eggs overwintering. He said that as the weather warms up in early spring this year, the locusts may hatch again and regenerate!"

"This matter must be focused on, and the locust plague that has subsided must not be revived again."

Li Shimin's face changed when he heard the word locust. Last year's drought and locust plague really left a big impression on Li Shimin.

The civil and military officials present did not want to see the disaster of last year again.

"Please rest assured, the sage, the Sinong Temple has recruited [-] ducks from the Department of Shepherds and Animal Husbandry, and has greeted the duck farm under King Yue.

If there are large-scale locusts, ducks will be recruited immediately to clean them up. "

Dou Jing spoke calmly, but hesitated for a moment, and said,

"The King of Yue also recommended a new type of plow called Quyuan plow to Si Nong Temple.

This plow is powerful, easy to turn, and digs deep. It is a sharp weapon for plowing.

The King of Yue said that this kind of Quyuan plow was a new kind of plow. Although it is seeing benefits now, it is still immature.

Therefore, it is necessary to conduct a small-scale trial in Sinong Temple and the Agricultural Institute first, and if it is really effective, it will be promoted to the whole world next year.

Although the king of Yue was young, he was calm in his work, so he was naturally careful and correct.

But Weichen has personally used the Quyuan plow to plow, and feels that if he misses this sharp tool for spring plowing this year, he is afraid that he will lose a lot of harvest in the autumn harvest! "

"Oh?" Li Shimin recalled Dou Jing's words slightly.

It seems that in Li Tai's diary, he wrote down something casually, and he didn't take this kind of thing to his heart.

After all, the so-called son of heaven has no reason, and Li Shimin can't imagine what the difference and effect between Zhiyuanli and Quyuanli are.

Now after Dou Jing's words, Li Shimin immediately reacted and said,

"Zijing, go and check the effect of Quyuanli.

If it is really effective, then the Ministry of Industry will put the production of Quyuanli on the agenda as soon as possible to facilitate the people to plow the fields. "

When Duan Lun heard Li Shimin's words, he immediately came out and replied, "I would like to follow the orders of the sage."

"Unfortunately, Qingque is too steady in doing things.

This is not in a hurry, if it is really good for the people, if you verify it in your hands for one more year, wouldn't it make the people suffer for a year! "

Li Shimin said with a look of Versailles but very proudly.

Which of the ministers present is not a human being, after hearing Li Shimin's words, there is no need to say anything, the rhythm of everyone's work paused slightly, and then they all started to operate like clouds and water.

Everyone said that they did not answer.

Li Shimin looked around, and his gaze finally fell on Wei Zheng. Wei Zheng understood, and said, "Is the sage going to reprimand King Yue?"

"I'm obviously going to praise him, so I don't mean to reprimand him!" Li Shimin couldn't help being stunned when he heard Wei Zheng's words.

"I also think so." Wei Zheng said, "It is the virtue of King Yue to be prudent, and he is careful to verify that he has a strange thing in his hand. If the sage is not going to reprimand him, why bother to say that this makes the people suffer? Does this mean that the King of Yue has been wronged for no reason! "

Hearing Wei Zheng's words, Li Shimin always felt that Wei Zheng was scolding him, but his mood was also ruined a lot.

Li Shimin originally wanted to reward Li Tai, but Li Shimin extinguished it a little, and said, "When the Ministry of Industry verifies the effect of this curved plow, if it is as Dou Jing said, it can save animal power and manpower, then reward King Yue with [-] bolts of silk cloth! "

Seeing this scene, Wei Zheng returned to his seat and breathed a sigh of relief, looking at the information about Li Tai, but couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Although the king of Yue is not competing with Li Chengqian for favor now, the king of Yue has made a mark every step of the way, and the things he has done are all credited to the country. Such merits cannot be erased in front of a wise king like Li Shimin.

The only thing I can do is to see the right time to spoil Li Shimin's mood, so that Li Shi can be as rational as possible when rewarding, instead of just being happy and really giving Li Tai the treatment that even surpassed that of the first-rank prince.

To be honest, if Li Tai were any ordinary official, he would be happy to support such a minister.

But now looking at Li Tai's appearance, although he is young, Wei Zheng sees more and more shadows of Li Shimin in Li Tai.

The only difference is that Li Shimin's strength lies in the military. Everyone knew that Li Shimin was strong when he conquered the world, but no one expected that Li Shimin would be so powerful. 1 will.

As for Li Tai's military capabilities, Wei Zheng didn't know, but in Wei Zheng's view, Li Tai's construction of an agricultural college was like Li Shimin's choice to join the army. He found his position, and then began to work hard.

"It's impossible for the Li family to have two people like a sage in a row, and they're all second-in-law sons!"

Wei Zheng thought about it for a while, and felt that he must have thought too much, even if he retreated [-] steps, as the saying goes, Wen Wu is the first, Wu Wu is the second.

Martial arts are easy to evaluate, and Li Shimin killed all the martial arts who refused to accept him by himself.

Therefore, Li Shimin's martial arts is the best in the world, and he is so dissatisfied that now there are people on the grave.

But Wen Wu is the first, unless the master is weak and the minister is strong, then it is possible to cover the sky with one hand, otherwise it is almost impossible to convince all civil servants only by relying on internal affairs ability.

Anyway, as long as it is Wenzhi, some people will definitely be dissatisfied. How can it be possible to satisfy everyone in all aspects.

So Wei Zheng only thought about it for a while, but didn't take it to heart any more.

After all, Li Tai's difficulty is not only the first place in literature, but more importantly, Li Tai's attitude towards Confucianism.

If Li Tai now concentrates on running the agricultural school, it would be fine to do some hard work for the court.

Confucianism will definitely not target Li Tai too much because of Li Shimin's protection.

The big deal is to wait until Li Chengqian is on stage, and then deal with Li Tai. After all, foreign wars are not enough for Confucianism, and who is afraid of civil wars.

So everything is going smoothly for Li Tai now, but if he really participates in the seizure of the heir apparent, the Confucianism will definitely place a heavy bet on Li Chengqian.

Not only the Confucianists, but even those who have survived the Xuanwu Gate incident must hope that the Tang Dynasty can be passed on smoothly.

For Li Chengqian, he doesn't need to be a top man, as long as he is a middle man is enough.

Not to mention that the crown prince is intelligent and filial. A few days ago, Li Gang could only ride in a car because of his foot disease. Li Chengqian personally led his teacher to the hall and saluted respectfully, and asked him humbly for advice. All highly praised.

This is really a rare wise prince.

Wei Zheng thought about it for a while, and felt that it would be fine if Li Tai could be a prince safely, but if he really had thoughts that he shouldn't have, at least from Wei Zheng's point of view, Wei Zheng really couldn't see that Li Tai had a little possible.

"Forget it, let's do this first, just let the Holy One pay attention to the order of seniority, and don't mess up the hierarchy, and reproduce the tragedy of Xuanwumen!"

Wei Zheng sighed slightly, but it's okay to say now, but in the future when Li Chengqian and Li Tai grow up, how can we stop it.

Many people said that the change of Li Shimin's Xuanwu Gate had a very bad start, and the change of regime in the Tang Dynasty has been full of bloody storms since then, but in reality, Li Shimin can't really be blamed for this incident.

Looking back, Li Shimin's previous dynasties, which regime succession was not full of bloody storms.

It is really to be blamed, and the Sima family is also to be blamed. They first violated the promise of a class and killed Cao Shuang, and then killed the emperor in the street, breaking everyone's political bottom line.

This made the world understand that as long as you hold power and have strong soldiers and horses, you can be an emperor.

As for the low character, it has nothing to do with being talented or not, which directly breaks the bottom line.

Although Li Shimin followed the same path, it was because the previous dynasties followed suit.

There is even the example of Yang Guang, who directly killed his father. It’s not because the throne is well done. If there is no Sanzheng Goryeo, maybe this Jiangshan is still surnamed Yang!

And even if Li Shimin killed Li Jiancheng, at least he didn't kill his father, and kept Li Yuan alive until his death. How can you say that Li Er's character is definitely more reliable than Yang Guang.

It is said that the palace change of the Tang Dynasty left hidden dangers for the later history, but from another perspective, since Li Shimin, the change of regime in the Tang Dynasty looks bloody, but strictly speaking, it is restricted to the change within the royal family, not Then it swept across the world, affecting the whole world.

And as Li Shimin handed these silk cloths to Li Tai, after Li Tai asked the reason clearly, he knew the Quyuanli that he had tried for Dou Jing, and Dou Jing felt very good after trying it, so he recommended it to Li Shimin.

"Sinong Dou is surprisingly easy-talking!" Li Tai gave the waiter a small thank you gift while putting away the silk cloth.

"It seems that the sage already knows what the King of Yue is thinking about in the Agricultural Academy!"

Watching the servant leave, Ma Zhou took out a jug of wine and took a sip, and said with a carefree smile.

"This is our job!" Li Taidao, "And a Quyuanli is just a tool. The world will never be changed by tools. Only people can change the world!"

"So you, King Yue, want to cultivate such a school to cultivate people who want to change the world just like you?!"

Ma Zhou turned around, and the sound of reading aloud came from the school, the sound was deafening.

"Yeah!" Li Tailue said with a bit of a sigh, "I want to change the world... It's too difficult for me alone. I have to find like-minded people, and if I can't find them, then create them." Like-minded people!"

Hearing Li Tai's words, Ma Zhou couldn't help sighing a little, "What kind of world is the king of Yue expecting!"

"Everyone can eat well, everyone can wear warm clothes, everyone can read books, and everyone can ascend to heaven!" Li Tai said looking at Ma Zhou.

"It feels like nonsense!" Hearing Li Tai's words, Ma Zhou said with a bit of sarcasm, but when Ma Zhou's words reached this point, he paused slightly, "Maybe this is the Datong society that the sages are after! "

"I don't know!" Li Tai shrugged, "But isn't that what we are doing now, and at least we have reached the first goal, to feed all the people in the world, so that everyone in the world will no longer starve to death !"

"I said, I want to escape now, is there still time!" Ma Zhou smiled and said calmly.

"The door of the car is welded shut. If you want to jump out of the car, let alone the door, there is no window!" Li Tai said viciously.

"Tsk tsk!" Although Ma Zhou didn't understand what the so-called dead welding was, he probably knew what Li Tai meant by referring to the context.

"Hehe!" Li Tai smiled lightly, but said to Ma Zhou, "But there is something you need to deal with."

"Oh?" Ma Zhou's expression became serious, and he looked at Li Tai, knowing that this was something serious.

"To acquire a paper mill and bookstore, we need to have our own publishing channels!" Li Tai said.

"Paper factory?" Ma Zhou couldn't help frowning when he heard this, and said, "Are you really planning to publish a book?"

"One "Thousand Characters" and one "Basic Arithmetic". In the future, students who leave our school will give them these two books. In this way, even if they can teach one more person to read and write, it will not be a loss!" Li Thailand is thoughtful to the horse.

"Your purpose should be more than that!" Ma Zhou said again when he heard Li Tai's words.

"En!" Li Tai nodded, "I want to build a library in the Agricultural Academy!"

"Library?!" Ma Zhou hardly understood this concept.

"That's right, what kind of school is it without a library!" Li Tai nodded and said firmly.

　happy New Year.
