Datang: Begin with Li Shimin as a father

Chapter 129
Forgan Restaurant!

It's the busiest time of the day again.

Ma Zhou and Chang He came hand in hand.

Zhao Si and Feng Wu naturally treated each other warmly.

After Ma Zhou and Chang He sat down, Zhao Si rode his horse and galloped straight to the manor.

Zhao Si just arrived at the gate of the manor.

It happened that Li Yuan came out of the hut, Li Yuan beckoned, Zhao Si understood it, and walked quietly to the hut.

Li Yuan whispered something to Zhao Si, Zhao Si nodded.Then he strode towards Li Gen's room.

"Young master, Ma Zhou and Chang He have come to our restaurant for a drink."

Hearing this, Li Gen immediately stood up.

"Go back to the restaurant first, I'll be there in a while."

"Young master, let me go with you, the master has told me to take good care of you."

After hearing Zhao Si's words, Li Gen nodded and said. : "Let me take a few books and give them to Brother Ma."

Li Gen had already bundled up the whole set of books with Chunmei and Chunlan.

A bundle just happens to be a complete set, containing all of his printed books.

Naturally, Zhao Si would not let Li Gen do it himself. Seeing Li Gen pick up a bundle of books, Zhao Si immediately took it.

Arriving in front of Fugen Restaurant, Li Gen took the book from Zhao Si's hand.

"Young master, I will go to deliver wine and food to King Hejian later."

"Okay, you guys are busy!"

Li Gen was invited into Fugen Restaurant by Zhao Si and Feng Wu.

"Master Li, please come inside!"

This sound naturally caught Ma Zhou's attention.

Ma Zhou raised his eyes and looked towards the door.

"Little brother, it's really you!"

Ma Zhou stood up happily.

"Brother Ma, what a coincidence! You are here too!"

Chang He is completely sure, the young man in front of him has the demeanor of today's day!

And that appearance, that heroic spirit is overwhelming, and outsiders will definitely not be able to imitate it.

"Come on, let me introduce you. This is Brother Chang, the current Zhonglang General Chang He!"

"Brother Chang, this is the number one scholar in the current discipline that King Bin often mentions, Li Gen. The VIP card we use is the one he gave to King Bin."

Li Gen smiled and cupped his fists.

"Nice to meet you!"

"The number one scholar, please sit down."

Chang He also smiled and cupped his fists in return.

"Man, if you add a few more dishes, I will pay for today's drink."

After hearing Li Gen's words, Feng Wu immediately agreed.

"Okay, Mr. Li, just wait a moment!"

Ma Zhou filled Li Gen's wine glass.

"Brother Ma, look at your attire, is this an official in the court?"

Ma Zhou picked up his wine glass and said with a smile.

"Little brother, with your auspicious words, King Bin is now the censor of Yushitai."

"Okay, the censor of Yushitai is good. He can talk about state affairs, report corrupt officials, advise His Majesty, and seek the well-being of the people!"

"Brother Ma, Li Gen believes that you will be an honest and selfless official!"

"Come on, to celebrate Brother Ma's official career, Li Gen is the first to do it!"

Ma Zhou also happily picked up the wine glass and drank it down!

"Little brother, what is this?"

Looking at the bundle of books, Ma Zhou asked in confusion.

Chang He was convinced, Ma Zhou mouthed a little brother, and the little brother called out.

I really don't know how Ma Zhou will feel when the truth comes out in the future!

"Brother Ma, this is a gift prepared by Li Gen for you. If you are not in the restaurant today, I will put it at the counter and hand it over to the staff for safekeeping. I did not expect such a coincidence that Brother Ma is here."

Hearing this, Ma Zhou waved his hands repeatedly to refuse.

"Little brother, you gave Bin Wang a VIP card. Bin Wang has nothing to repay, so how can I ask for your gift again. Bin Wang is very upset!"

"Brother Ma, this is a piece of my heart, and it is all made by myself."

Li Gen unwrapped a bundle of books.

After the outer rice paper was removed, books were revealed.

"Zuo Zhuan? Analects, Mencius, Book of Rites..."

Ma Zhou looked at the books, incoherent with excitement!

Opening the book again, Ma Zhou's eyes widened even more.

"This, this, these are all made by yourself?"

Ma Zhou's shocked appearance was completely expected by Li Gen.

"Brother Ma doesn't believe it?"

"Naturally, King Bin believed that from the day you created the Moonlight Night on the Spring River, King Bin was overwhelmed by the talent of the No. Peace for all ages! It also speaks the essence of being an official."

"So far in the court, His Majesty will be amazed every time he mentions it!"

"Ma Zhou has a doubt? Such an exquisite book, with neat handwriting and uniform size, does not look like a brush at all. You must have spent a lot of effort to make it?"

Li Gen nodded when he heard the words, and replied truthfully.

"To be honest, engraving these books is indeed labor-intensive and labor-intensive, but if not, how can we continue to learn for the past saints? Li Gen has successfully engraved all the books of the former sages, and printing them will be much simpler. , this whole set of books only takes half an hour!"

call!
Ma Zhou panted loudly with excitement.

How could he not understand the meaning of Li Gen's words.

"In this way, these books written by the sages will be popularized throughout the Tang Dynasty in the future?"

Li Gen nodded with a smile, as an admission.

"Come on, Ma Zhou respects Zhuangyuan Lang a cup!"

"Brother Ma, I still feel that the little brother is more kind."

Li Gen picked up the wine glass and drank it down!

This time Ma Zhou noticed that Li Gen's hands were covered with scars.

"Little brother, your finger?"

"It's okay, it was all for engraving, and I was stabbed by a bamboo stick. Now it's healed. Seeing these books come out, this bit of physical pain is nothing!"

Ma Zhou kept asking how the book was printed, and Li Gen answered them one by one!

.........

Tai Chi Palace!
In the imperial study room, it was also very lively at this time.

Li Shimin, Cheng Yaojin and his son kept toasting and drinking frequently.

Looking at the books in front of him, Li Shimin was very happy, but from Chu Mo's mouth, Li Shimin felt very distressed when he heard that Gen'er had suffered so much.

"Your Majesty, Zhao Si begs to see you!"

"Oh!"

Li Shimin glanced at Cheng Yaojin and his son, after thinking about it, he got up and walked outside the imperial study.

"Your Majesty, the Supreme Emperor sent his subordinates to tell you urgently,..."

"Okay, I know what's in my mind!"

After listening to Zhao Si's words, Li Shimin nodded, turned and returned to the imperial study.

"Zhijie, just now you said that tomorrow morning, as long as I put these books in the Xiande Hall, no one will dare to object to the matter of being a Marquis!"

"Your Majesty, with my old Cheng here, who the hell would dare to object?"

Li Shimin was very displeased with Cheng Yaojin's foul language!
"Hugh is babbling nonsense!"

Cheng Yaojin immediately picked up the wine bottle and said respectfully.

"Your Majesty, I'm a rough man! But I know it well."
