Datang: I am so happy to marry a disfigured princess!

Chapter 189 I’m afraid that the bad reputation will be passed down!
Li Shimin's original intention was to call Lin Heng here to see what Lin Heng's opinion was. After all, the papermaking technology was now only in Lin Heng's hands. Even if he was Lin Heng's father-in-law, it was naturally impossible for him to directly agree to this. thing.

But Lin Heng's almost tough attitude made Li Shimin feel confused. He refused without hesitation at all.

It should be said that it was exactly the same as the previous aristocratic family, but Li Shimin saw Lin Heng with other emotions and refused without thinking. He was also a little confused at the moment.

"Heng'er, I don't mean to force you to use this papermaking technique, but I think you have some reasons. Can you tell me?"

Several Japanese monks on the side also felt a huge gap in their hearts at this moment.

I refused without even thinking about it. Your Majesty is telling you this!

Kanbaru Heiryu was also puzzled and said: "Lin Prince Consort, we want to use this papermaking technology to benefit more people and promote the majesty of the Tang Dynasty. And if possible, I will name it after Lin Prince Consort when we get to Japan." This papermaking technique has been passed down through generations like the reputation of Prince Consort Lin..."

After all, they are very clear about the value of papermaking. The medium for cultural communication is paper. Having paper means that many things can be spread, and the poor development of Japanese culture can be improved as soon as possible.

Lin Heng sneered in his heart, not liking this suggestion at all.

If it has been passed down for generations, I am afraid that in the future it will not be a good name, but a bad name!

What you will do in the future will be hated by the whole world. How can Lin Heng give this papermaking technology to these Japanese people?
But there were some things that Lin Heng couldn't say. After all, in this era, Lin Heng was the only one who knew what happened next.

Lin Heng thought for a moment and then said: "The method of making paper was created by the son. The son has the right to decide where it goes. Moreover, paper is for spreading culture and virtue, so that the culture of the Tang Dynasty can be spread better, but the Japanese country What the envoy did in Chang'an during this period may have caused the paper-making method to be used astray."

"It is impossible for me to agree to this."

At that moment, Kukai said displeasedly: "What are you talking about, Prince Consort Lin? There are indeed masked gangsters in Chang'an City during this period. How can anyone like to walk naked on the street?"

Lin Heng snorted coldly and said: "I have heard that the Japanese country is not yet civilized, and most of the men and women in the country are not fully clothed, and their lives are chaotic..."

Kukai's face suddenly turned red: "You have never been to our country, how do you know that this is the scene in our country? This matter..."

Before Kukai could finish speaking, Lin Heng stared at Kukai and narrowed his eyes, then slowly said: "Your Excellency is somewhat familiar. Have we met at Baoen Temple?"

"Are you the monk who went to Tiantianju to drink wine and eat meat, and then went to Baoen Temple to offend Buddhism?"

Kukai immediately widened his eyes and denied: "It's nonsense. How can a poor monk offend Buddhism? It's just that the monks in Boen Temple look down on us, people from the Japanese country."

Li Shimin also had a headache when he saw this: "Shut up!"

After saying that, he looked at Lin Heng and sighed slightly: "Since you don't want to, I won't force you. As for the reason, I won't ask."

Lin Heng cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, father."

Li Shimin immediately looked at Kanbaru Heiryu and others: "You have also seen Heng'er's attitude. This matter is not appropriate. Please retreat first."

Seeing this, Kanhara Heiryu and others didn't say anything more, they all sighed in their hearts.

After a few people left, only Li Shimin and Lin Heng were left in Wude Hall. Li Shimin smiled and pointed to the chair beside him: "There are no outsiders, so there is no need to be polite. Sit down and chat." Lin Heng nodded, and after sitting down Li Shimin said: "I think you have some opinions about the Japanese monks. Is it because of some recent events?"

Lin Heng shook his head: "That's not the case. I just don't like Japanese people by nature."

Li Shimin smiled: "They are all from my foreign country. Even if they don't like it, they still have to live up to their reputation. After all, they have come all the way to study in the Tang Dynasty. A big country must have the image of a big country."

During the prosperous period of the Tang Dynasty, all nations came to court, which was a unique phenomenon during the Zhenguan period. As the emperor, Li Shimin was the creator of this grand occasion, so he would remain friendly to countries that had good relations with the Tang Dynasty.

Lin Heng shook his head slightly and sighed: "I'm afraid these people will take advantage of His Majesty's generosity to secretly do some despicable things, and rebel against Your Majesty's wishes."

Naturally, he was implying that those Japanese people had ulterior motives. Li Shimin saw it and immediately frowned, but did not ask any further questions.

But since Lin Heng reminded him, he would naturally pay attention.

"Let's put this matter aside for now. How is the teaching in Imperial College these days?"

Lin Heng smiled and said, "It went pretty smoothly and nothing happened."

Li Shimin chuckled: "Kong Yingda came to me specifically today and said that the calculations you taught were quite novel and the calculation methods were much simpler and quite accurate."

"In that case, I should have put you in a math school. Some ministers in the imperial court are quite critical of teaching math in Taixue."

When Lin Heng heard this, his eyes immediately lit up: "If the emperor feels that his son is not suitable for studying in Taixue, he can send him to teach arithmetic. It is not teaching!"

Li Shimin snorted coldly: "What I mean is that you should teach Confucian classics wholeheartedly. As for sending you to arithmetic, don't even think about it. I can't let you go."

After all, counting can be very tiring. Now that Lin Heng is in Taixue, not only the parents of those students are complaining, but the doctors of Taixue are also said to be very dissatisfied. This is what Li Shimin is happy to see.

You are so relaxed all day long, I feel uncomfortable!

Lin Heng sighed after hearing this: "I am also teaching Confucian classics, but I am really not familiar with it, so the teaching progress must be a bit slow."

Li Shimin laughed and took a cup of tea: "It doesn't matter. I heard that Kong Yingda has asked you to teach the class that is lagging behind. I believe you can do it, Heng'er. Besides, isn't Kong Yingda studying at Taipei University? I don't know how. Just ask him directly."

"My son, do your best..."

"I heard that Chu Suiliang saw what you were teaching today and ran to the roof? Please tell me about this..."

On weekdays, Lin Heng and Li Shimin spent a lot of time chatting. Most of the questions they asked were about what Lin Heng was doing recently and what he had done. After all, Lin Heng's talents were also revealed by Li Shimin for a while. Even if you can't see it, it can relieve your boredom.

That night, we had a long chat. From Lin Heng, we talked about the current situation of the Tang Dynasty and the necessity of the conquest of Goryeo.

Li Shimin attaches great importance to these things. For Li Shimin, national affairs are higher than anything else. It is precisely because of this emperor that the most splendid Tang Dynasty in history was created...
