Trust is the most difficult thing between people, and he is your son who has been away from you for more than ten years. The estrangement between father and son is understandable.

What's more, those past memories are difficult to mention in his life. The pain and hurt he endured are unimaginable.

This was what Fang Xuanling told Li Kuan when he went south with his army. He was lost and found again, which made Li Shimin cherish his second son even more.

Li Shimin knew Li Kuan's loyalty to his father and the court, and his love for his sisters. Because of his return, he also saw the changes in Gao Ming and Chang Le.

Although he still couldn't understand the child's thoughts, he was still satisfied with what he did.

In front of Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, and Wei Zheng, Li Shimin immediately said that Li Kuan had made great contributions to the country and shared the worries of his father and emperor, and he wanted heavy rewards.

It is better to reward a good teacher than to reward a good teacher. Li Kuan is good at martial arts and is good at bow and horse. The best military commander in the court is none other than the Duke of Wei, Li Jing. Therefore, he wanted Li Kuan to join Li Jing's sect and learn from him.

The Art of War.

As soon as this statement came out, not to mention Li Kuan, even Changsun Wuji and Wei Zheng were shocked. When a prince becomes a disciple, the teacher's connections and influence are basically attributed to the prince.

Who is Li Jing? He is the number one general in the Tang Dynasty. His prestige in the army is only under His Majesty's Majesty. It can be said that if he becomes Li Kuan's teacher, then the King of Chu will overwhelm the Eastern Palace and Wei Dynasty in one fell swoop.

The palace has become the crown of all princes.

What is your Majesty doing? I knew he loved his son, but I didn’t know he thought he wanted Yi Chu!

While Li Kuan was thinking, Changsun Wuji stood up and said: "Sage, Duke Wei is old and suffering from leg ailments. He has been recuperating in his mansion. If you let the King of Chu."

Before Changsun Wuji finished speaking, Li Shimin interrupted him: "I know very well whether he is sick or not! Besides, what does teaching the art of war have to do with foot disease?"

"Erlang, I want you to join Li Jing's family and study the art of war. What do you think?"

As a general, if you are lucky enough to receive some guidance from Duke Wei, it will be a blessing that you have cultivated for three lifetimes, not to mention becoming a disciple of Li Jing, which is definitely a dream.

This temptation is not too big! But when he saw Fang Xuanling squinting her eyes to show him to look at Changsun Wuji, Li Kuan's heart skipped a beat.

Everyone can learn Li Jing's art of war, except the prince. The ministers learned this art of war, which can be said to be for fame and wealth, or to serve the king and leave a name in history.

But what does the prince learn to do?

Do you want to imitate the saints?

As long as Li Kuan agrees, then he has a disloyal heart and intends to gain access to the East Palace. Regardless of whether he thinks so in his heart, others will think so.

The emperor was happy today, so he didn't care about it, but as soon as he was happy, there were people beside him who were making comments every day. It is said that three people make a tiger, and even great sages like Zeng Zi were rumored so that mother and son did not know each other, let alone the emperor's family.

.

Almost, almost accepted, it’s so suspenseful!

Fortunately, Li Kuan raised his hands and replied respectfully: "Father, I am loyal and will not serve the two masters. A filial son will not serve the two masters. The Duke of Wuyang County has taught me, and I will never forget it for the rest of my life!"

"If my father allows me to do so, I would like to appoint the Duke of Wuyang County as the King of Chu's advisor, so that I can control the province in the morning and dusk and repay the kindness of the commander-in-chief."

Even without the conversation at Hongwen Hall that day, Li Kuan knew that Li Daliang could not be his teacher, otherwise it would not have been delayed until today.

But what he couldn't understand was how could Fang Xuanling be sure that His Majesty would appoint him to be the King of Chu's division?

Haha, Li Shimin was very satisfied with this answer, and even Wei Zheng on the side nodded frequently. Li Shimin was satisfied that Li Kuan knew how to advance and retreat, and knew the current affairs; Wei Zheng was happy that among the current princes, there was finally one who understood the rules and did not exceed them.

But Li Shimin still waved his hand: "Li Daliang is good, but he cannot be the master of the King of Chu."

"If you are willing to repay your kindness, you can treat it with courtesy. The two houses can move frequently. I am very strict. We cannot let outsiders say that our Li family knows how to repay kindness."

As he spoke, Li Shimin turned to look at the three ministers, Changsun Wuji, and asked them who could be the teacher of the King of Chu!

Wei Zheng thought for a while and then said: "Your Majesty, the King of Chu is fond of martial arts but lacks literary skills. It is inevitable that he is a bit weak. Why not choose a civil servant as his master?"

Li Shimin nodded in agreement, and then asked Changsun Wuji: "Auxiliary machine, how do you like Taoism?"

Changsun Wuji didn't have any objections, but there was a chariot in front and a rut in the back. Li Daozong had no problem fighting, but he was just a little greedy.

In the eleventh year of Zhenguan, he was removed from his position as Minister of Rites, his fiefdom was reduced, and he returned home as a county king. Isn't it because he was too greedy?

The prince's first priority is virtue. What good things can he teach the prince?

Well, Li Shimin understands that he is worried about Li Jing, who has a good character, and he is afraid that Li Daozong, who is greedy, will be corrupted by his teachings. This is not good for both sides!

Okay, if neither left nor right works, then I will find someone who can do both.

"I can't even hold it, so I'll give you a sure one. Xuanling, let me serve as the King of Chu's master at the same time!"

"I know you are busy with government affairs, so just do the same thing as the other end of the East Palace and teach twice a month."

As soon as Fang Xuanling said his polite refusal, Li Shimin interrupted him: "I know that you are too busy with state affairs to focus on your own affairs."

"But squeeze out some time, even if it is not about my face, it is also about the Queen and Keming's face."

Li Shimin has always been at ease with Fang Xuanling. During the war, he went back to court to report to the emperor on his behalf. Even the late emperor praised him: Every time he presented something for my son, he was sure to understand people's hearts. Even thousands of miles away, he could still speak to each other.

.

He has been the prime minister for so many years, and he has handled everything appropriately and praised his heart. Among the ministers, who knows his heart best is Changsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling. The meaning of letting him discipline the King of Chu is,

Fang Xuanling naturally knows it, so there is no need to say more.

"Your Majesty's trust is so great, what reason does the old minister have to refuse?" After saying this, he bowed and saluted, accepting the job.

Li Shimin was also very happy and ordered Li Kuan to pay three respects to his teacher. He also asked Changsun Wuji and Wei Zheng to be witnesses.

Li Kuan was stunned by this magical operation. While kowtowing, he was still thinking, this prime minister obviously didn't do anything and didn't say a word, so why did his father choose him?

After leaving His Majesty's Mountain, Wei Zheng went first, and the two got into a carriage. Li Kuan specifically asked for advice: "Master Prime Minister, oh no, teacher, the student is unknown!"

Fang Xuanling, however, stroked his beard, looked back at the Nine Dragons Palace, and said in his heart: Your Majesty, this time in my life, I will have an affair with you.

As for Li Kuan's problem, it is much simpler. Before summoning Lu Dongzan, Fang Xuanling took away the chapter that Du Chuke of the Ministry of Civil Affairs was the left minister of the Ministry of Works.

After Du Ruhui passed away, the sage really paid attention to Du Chuke and appointed him as the governor of Puzhou. He also said: It is better to understand my will and inherit your brother's loyalty.

"Du Chuke is the long history of King Wei. He hasn't come to see you since you restored your identity, right?"

"Your mother was orphaned when she was young. She grew up with the three brothers Keming. She doesn't even look at you because of her official position. Can Your Majesty not be annoyed?"

Those who are related by blood are not necessarily family members, and family members are not just related by blood. Your family cares about you because of your heart, not what you can do for them. Compared with Du Chuke, the uncle, Fang Xuanling cares more about the friendship between old brothers, so
