The Prodigal Son of Zhenguan

When he was a small landlord in Zhuangzi, Li Fu only wanted to make his family live a good life, with food and drink, and to let the farmers under him live a good life.

But after becoming a prince, he had to manage more people.

The higher the position, the more people are related, and the heavier the responsibility on his shoulders.

After getting married, it is even more so, and there are more problems to consider than before.

Li Fu naturally attributed it to the sense of responsibility that men should shoulder.

After all, he is the head of the Jingyang Palace.

The fate of his wife and children in the future depends on his shoulders.

Sometimes, people can't stop just because they want to.

People become more and more timid as they live, because they have more and more things to do.

When I was young, I was fearless and thought that I could do anything as a bachelor.

After I got older, I was not so courageous. I had to consider my parents, relatives, wife and children before doing anything.

Especially when I was the head of the family, I couldn't be selfish.

After getting married, Li Fu also felt the extra responsibility on his shoulders.

The Jingyang Palace and the Duke of Ying Palace are related, and there are more people and things involved.

Li Fu and Li Shao stayed in the study for a long time. Li Fu carefully told Li Shao about the many affairs of the Jingyang Palace.

"Originally, were all these things handled by my husband?"

"I just look at the account book in my spare time and think about what to do next. The specifics are still handed over to the people under my command. There are still some talents under the palace now." Li Fu said: "Your Majesty's award of the power to open a palace, including the power of the two palaces just obtained this year, is still very useful."

"For matters in the house, you can find Lao Zhao and Lao Zhou. If there are matters outside, Ma Zhou, the chief historian of the palace, can arrange it." Li Fu said.

Li Shao nodded seriously and wrote it down.

Next, Li Fu asked Lao Zhao to prepare for the return to the manor.

This time, it was different from the past. In the past, he would just pack up a little and go back directly.

This time, Li Fu went back with his wife and some messy things in the house, so that Li Shao could understand the various affairs in Chang'an City at the manor.

The academy in the manor had already started school. When Li Fu got married, Li Zhen, his brother-in-law, asked for leave from the academy. After the return banquet, Li Zhen was sent back to the academy in the manor by Li Ji that afternoon.

He also brought a lot of things with him, so that he could share them with his classmates at the academy.

In the manor, Su Dingfang led a thousand people to set up camp here. The camp was chosen about a quarter of an hour away from the workshop area, within the original Pei family manor, and very close to the future palace of the emperor planned by Li Fu.

There was a water source nearby and the terrain was relatively high. It was indeed a good place to set up camp.

He could also watch over the academy there.

It must be said that just from the action of choosing a campsite, it is enough to see that Su Dingfang is quite an extraordinary person.

As mentioned before, the academy is very important, but the workshop must also be taken into consideration, so Su Dingfang studied the map for half a day before choosing such a place.

For more than a thousand people, eating, drinking, defecating and urinating are all big problems, not all places are suitable for camping.

Li Fu left Xiao Tao to Li Shao, and asked Xiao Tao to take Li Shao around the manor and introduce her more about the manor.

Li Fu took the guards and went to the academy first.

During the Chinese New Year, the workshop was only closed for a few days, and work was still going on in the middle.

Li Fu paid special attention to the printing workshop. He went to the academy first to see how the books in the academy were, then went to the printing workshop to see there, and finally went to the military camp.

Once he came back, he had to take a tour first.

After leaving the manor for more than two months, the manor was not unchanged.

When Li Fu came to the academy, the news of his marriage had already spread in Zhuangzi. Those who worked in the academy would congratulate Li Fu when they saw him.

Those teachers who did not attend classes in the school would also bow and congratulate Li Fu when they saw him.

Li Fu returned the greetings one by one.

"Is the academy doing well next year?" Li Fu asked the teachers about the academy.

"Everything is fine. Now everyone is discussing with Dr. Lu about the textbooks for students after this autumn." The teacher responded.

Li Fu nodded slightly.

He had discussed this issue with Lu Deming several times before the expansion of the academy.

The books nowadays are just the works of the predecessors. Reading is fine, but it is obviously very unfriendly to students when used for enlightenment.

The textbooks for enlightenment should be appropriately revised and rewritten.Compilation is required.

As for other teaching materials, they still need to be slowly explored and modified during the course of teaching in the academy.

"Have the workshops sent any books?" Li Fu asked.

"They have been delivered and are now in the warehouse. The gentlemen are discussing and organizing how to set the price." The gentleman responded, "The books are of exquisite quality. If they were placed outside, the price would definitely not be low, but in the academy, we cannot set a high price for the students."

"We still have to consider the students' family background." The gentleman said.

Li Fu nodded slightly.

Even the books in the academy will not be distributed to students for free. Even if 90% of the students have good character, it is still possible that some students have some crooked ideas.

Moreover, isn't it normal for the academy to charge tuition and book fees?

Even in Zhuangzi, Li Fu did not plan to implement any compulsory education.

These days, teaching people to read is not an obligation.

The existence of an academy is a blessing for some students from ordinary families.

"I will go to the workshop later and discuss with the craftsmen to see what this thing is and estimate the cost. The academy will not make money from students on the book fees." Li Fu said: "It's almost the same. It will be calculated by the cost price and counted as the students' book fees."

In the future, when books are distributed, we still need to set a time, for example, after the holiday, when the school starts, the books will be distributed, or a special date will be set.

Let the workshop prepare in advance.

Because the academy has just opened, there are no rules for many things. When the upstream things come out, the downstream academy will distribute or make changes.

This is too unstable.

However, with the stability of the workshop and the development of the academy, these problems can be slowly solved.

"Then, we will wait for the news from His Highness." The gentleman said with a bow.

"Okay, I'll take a look around the academy and then go over. You can do whatever you need to do."
