Xu Hongzhi was shocked! This question was already very difficult. Even when used as an imperial examination question, it seemed over the top. Originally, he just wanted to show off his knowledge in front of the students, but who would have expected that he would be slapped in the face so quickly! Look at the students.

The eyes looking at him seemed to be full of ridicule, and Xu Hongzhi couldn't help but feel angry and evil in his heart.

Several famous questions came out in succession, but Li Tai still answered them fluently, without even moving his pen, he just calculated them in his head.

There was another question that Li Tai reminded: "Sir, you are wrong about this question. If there are 320 people, this question has no answer. The answer should be 326 people."

Xu Hongzhi felt as if he had been mercilessly pressed to the ground and rubbed countless times. He became so angry that he slammed the ruler on the table, snorted and walked away.

Li Tai shrugged his shoulders easily to show that he was innocent. The other students, all of whom watched the drama without taking it too seriously, expressed their support for you, Brother Li! How could a naughty boy with so much time to spare keep any secrets?

In the afternoon, the news had already reached the ears of Xu Kuang, the Imperial Academy’s wine minister.

Xu Hongzhi honestly came to Xu Kuang's office to explain the whole story, and at the end he added: "Who knew this bastard in literature and art could teach these weird things? Even us PhDs just use them as topics for casual conversation. It's really not our job."

!Uncle, I can't swallow this breath! You have to help me suppress their arrogance! Otherwise, how can I have the face to continue teaching in the Imperial College in the future?"

Xu Kuang smacked his lips and said: "Sir, it is natural for students to take exams, so why should you be more serious?

You've gone too far.

I won't help you with this matter, it's an insult to politeness.

Go back and reflect carefully, and in the future, focus more on your studies, and don’t always think about whether these things are there or not.”

Xu Hongzhi knew that his uncle was a gentleman, so he couldn't say anything at the moment, so he had to bow and leave. However, he still wanted to get his place back. The feeling of being slapped in the face by a little brat was not pleasant! Xu Hongzhi himself was

The prince's family, together with several doctors from the East Palace, and Si Chengyi, decided to give Brother Li Tai some stumbling blocks in the monthly royal examination, raising the difficulty of Confucian classics and arithmetic directly to the level of the imperial examination.

Then reveal the topic to your own people, so that the people of the prince's line can use it to show their authority! Unfortunately, they still underestimated the true level of Li Chengqian and others. If they were to test the Confucian classics, they would be at the bottom, but if they were to test current affairs, they would be at the bottom.

How can politics hold them back?

There are also children's arithmetic such as Han Xin's command of troops, chickens and rabbits in the same cage, etc. Not to mention.

The royal monthly examination is a test for the royal family's descendants, and Li Yuan will personally mark the exams.

Although I was a little surprised by the increase in difficulty of this assessment, I didn’t think much about it.

Among the many test papers that were the same thousands of times, he was extremely happy to find three unique test papers.

Take a look at the names: Li Chengqian, Li Tai, Li Ke.

Li Yuan was so happy that he held the test paper up for all officials to read, and tried to think of ways to turn the suggestions on the paper into reality.

Li Yuan's good friend Pei Ji left the class and said: "Your Majesty, the ideas of the Hengshan County Prince brothers do have merit, but what is written on the test paper is too general. It is better to invite the three of them to the palace to explain it in detail, which can also make the ministers more confident.

Waiting for a better understanding.”

Li Yuan waved his hand, and the servant beside him rushed to the palace to invite brother Li Chengqian to the palace to see him.

When the chamberlain came to the palace, the three brothers were still sleeping in. Like a teacher, there must be a disciple. Literature and art love sleeping in so much, how can they, as apprentices, not sleep in?

The three brothers were forcibly pulled out of bed by the chamberlain, put on their clothes and were taken outside the Tai Chi Hall to wait for the order.

After Li Yuan had finished handling his daily affairs, Brother Xuan and the three of them came to see him.

After the three boys stumbled to the center of the hall and saluted Li Yuan, Li Yuan said: "The three of you answered very well in yesterday's assessment, especially Li Ke's 'monetary theory' that made my eyes shine.

I called you brothers here just to listen to your opinions in detail and see if they can be implemented."

After the three brothers looked at each other, Li Ke took the lead in expressing his suggestions for Datang's current monetary policy.

The establishment of the Central Bank of the Tang Dynasty, the unified control and issuance of currency, and a series of methods such as how to use currency to carry out macro-control of the economy of the Tang Dynasty, all officials were like a revelation. It turns out that copper coins can be used in this way! Li Chengqian's "Foreign Trade Theory" It made their eyes light up, it turned out that making money is not just as simple as collecting taxes! Li Yuan was even more happy, imagining the use of ceramics, silk and other Tang Dynasty specialties to continuously exchange large quantities of food from foreign countries, and the money was trembling with excitement! Li Tai's Not many people responded to the "patent theory". Thinking about it, this thing is too advanced. The current situation of the devastated Tang Dynasty is not the time to implement patent laws.

However, in order to save his face, Li Yuan still agreed to let Dali Temple conduct research on the patent law. As for when it will be implemented, that is a matter for the future.

It was already noon by the time the three brothers' suggestions were discussed by these big guys. Although the Tang Dynasty implemented a two-meal system, it definitely did not include these big guys from the Taiji Hall. Li Yuan moved to the Chengqing Hall to hold a banquet for hundreds of officials with a wave of his hand. ! After everyone had eaten and drank, Li Yuan issued an order: The Ministry of Accounts would establish the Central Bank of the Tang Dynasty, and set up branches in various provinces to be responsible for the management and circulation of currency. For large transactions, money must be deposited in the bank first, and the money issued by the bank must be taken. Only with a voucher can transactions be carried out; the Ministry of Rites is responsible for setting up customs and conducting foreign trade; the Ministry of Personnel is responsible for formulating the patent law, but the specific implementation is yet to be determined.

The three brothers curled their lips after hearing this. As expected by the master, these short-sighted people in the imperial court only knew how to fight for their own interests and abandoned truly useful things.

Li Shimin knew everything. At first he wanted to take this opportunity to carry out some reforms, but slowly he also understood that if the prince's line only opposed people and wrongdoings for the sake of opposition, he would not be able to do anything. as.

So in the end, I just let them do whatever they wanted and just pretended to be watching a show.

At the same time, he also became more determined to sit on the supreme throne. Only he can understand the benefits of these policies, and only he can promote real change! When Li Shimin returned home with his three sons, he couldn't help but praise him again. Li Chengqian But he sighed: "Father, my master is really good at knowing things. Although he is not in the court, he has a thorough understanding of the behavior of officials. It is impossible for them to fully implement these policies."

Li Shimin patted him on the shoulder and said: "A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. This cannot be accomplished now, otherwise my father would have proposed it long ago.

Don't be anxious, the days are long.

You still focus on studying now. If you can learn one-tenth of Xiaoyi's skills, you will be very satisfied as a father."

Li Tai said at this time: "Father, I don't want to go to the Imperial College. I want to learn from my master. Those gentlemen in the Imperial College don't know anything except this. It's a waste of time there."

Li Shimin said with a smile: "I just want you to learn it. These are the crystallization of wisdom left by our ancestors. There is great wisdom in it, otherwise Xiaoyi wouldn't let you go.

Just rest peacefully in the Imperial College, Xiaoyi will let you go back when you have learned enough."
