Ye Tan couldn't care about things in the palace, and he wasn't in the mood to care. He was currently looking at the place Zhang Yi was looking for in Suiyuan, and found that although it was a bit remote, it was good because it was a crossroads, because there were many

The ministers were cleared, so many stores followed.

A mouthful of rice, sometimes, is just a matter of eating with help and not starving to death.

Early the next morning, when Ye Tan opened his eyes, he saw Li Chengqian standing beside his bed, looking at him with wide eyes. Not to mention, handsome children always make people feel comfortable, even though he

He is also a child.

"Cheng Qian, aren't you going to study today?" Ye Tan lifted the blanket, sat up and asked, sometimes the royal education is really not something ordinary people can bear. Even though he is only ten years old, it still needs to be done.

There are a lot of things to do and learn. But strangely enough, it seems that all the princes need to study hard, and then leave the best one, and the rest are almost killed. This may be the so-called Gu raising ground.

Let’s train heirs.

"Brother, I'm taking a rest today." Li Chengqian seemed very happy. In fact, this is similar to the current weekend rest. Even an iron man has to take a rest, right.

"Then can you go out?" Ye Tan got up and rubbed his neck. He felt that sleeping here was really uncomfortable. Even though it was a palace, the bed was as hard as a stone. It felt really uncomfortable.

"If you can't usually do it, you can do it this time." Although Li Shimin didn't reward Li Chengqian because of the food problem, when he just went to his father to say that he wanted to go out and have a look, he thought he was refusing, but in the end he didn't expect that it turned out to be a refusal.

, just let him record Ye Tan's usual words and deeds and tell him, otherwise, it won't be a problem to be embarrassed all the time, right?

"It seems that the steamed bun helped you." Ye Tan found a copper basin and washed his face, then took Li Chengqian and went out. However, he did not leave the palace directly, but took him around the East Palace and ran around.

After almost ten laps, he stopped, and Li Chengqian failed after only three laps. Looking at Li Chengqian with beads of sweat on his face, Ye Tan also knew that today, if it was normal, his masters, such as

Speaking of Yu Zhining, his ancestor was Yu Jing in the Northern Zhou Dynasty. He has been a scholarly family for generations. Such people are generally more upright, or very pedantic. They would like to educate the prince directly into those in books.

Holy King, but the things in the book are all imaginary and unreliable.

"Chengqian, you can't do this." Ye Tan wiped the non-existent sweat on his forehead with a towel, and then wiped it with Li Chengqian.

"Brother, my body is a bit weak." Li Chengqian said embarrassedly. In fact, his physical fitness is still good, it just depends on who he compares with.

"Let's go out of the palace." After Ye Tan finished speaking, he took him out. Their words and deeds along the way were passed on to Empress Changsun who was making white fungus soup for Li Shimin. From the beginning, she was angry.

By the end, I was deeply grateful. I have to say that this Ye Tan has occupied a big place in her heart.

"Chengqian, what kind of person do you want to be in the future?" Ye Tan looked at the scenery outside. It was still early and he had to go home and have a meal before talking.

"Become a person like my father." The person a boy admires most since he was a child is his father. This is not a lie, especially for someone as awesome as Li Shimin. It is impossible for his descendants not to admire him.

"Your Majesty is indeed a very powerful person, but what do you think is the gap between you and Your Majesty?" Ye Tan continued to ask.

"Well, I'm not as good as my father in studying, I'm not as good at fighting, and I'm even worse at governing the country." There are some things that you can't think about in detail. If you think about it, it's easy to get into trouble. Li Chengqian thought about it and found that he was really not as good at everything.

His father said a little frustrated.

"Then where do you think Your Majesty learned to be better at reading than you, where did you learn to be better at fighting than you, and where did you learn to govern the country so well?" Ye Tan continued to ask.

"Study in the study room?" Li Chengqian found this question a bit difficult. He had never thought about this before.

"Your Majesty went out to fight to save Yang Guang when he was a teenager. How could he have so much time to study?" Ye Tan didn't believe that Li Shimin really studied a lot. This man is a bit like a stick. If you say it's Li Jiancheng, he does.

possible.

"Is that a talent?" When Li Chengqian thought of this, he became even more speechless. How could he compare to this?

"Haha, what kind of talent?" Although Ye Tan believes that some people are geniuses, if you want to become a great emperor, genius alone is not enough. For example, Yang Guang, this guy is not only handsome, but also has first-class literary talent and martial arts.

He is extremely tall and can govern the country very well, but he is just too powerful, which makes his essential role of emperor seem less important.

"Actually, besides studying, there is another biggest reason why Your Majesty can become His Majesty." Ye Tan said this, looked at Li Chengqian and said, "Practice."

"Practice? What does it mean?" This was really the first time Li Chengqian heard about it. His teachers all told him that as long as he studied well, he could become a sage, but he really didn't know what practice was.

Know.

"Practice is also called the unity of knowledge and action. That is to say, it is useless for a person to read a lot, because if you read a lot, it only means that you have seen a lot, but not done a lot. You have to

Only by converting what you see into something useful can you do it. Of course, the most important point is that everything in books is all lies." Ye Tan's last words made Li Chengqian stunned.

Yes, it's all a lie. If it's really a lie, wouldn't you become a fool?

"Brother, what you said is wrong, isn't it?" Li Chengqian did not directly curse, it was definitely the result of these years of cultivation.

"Okay then, let me ask you a few questions." Ye Tan had already left the East Palace with him and continued walking along the avenue. This is the royal road. Normally, only the emperor could walk, but Ye Tan didn't know him.

Li Chengqian forgot.

"Okay, brother, tell me." Li Chengqian really wanted to know, and he was very modest about things he really didn't understand.

"It is said that Yao, Shun, and Yu were all saints, right?"

"That's right, they all are." Li Chengqian didn't understand what he meant and asked doubtfully.

"From the books you have read over the years, you should know that the clothes and food of their time were somewhat similar to those of Tubo today, right?" Ye Tan continued to ask, such things really do exist, especially royal secrets.

There must be something hidden inside.

"Yes, it was all tribes at that time, not the country it is now." Li Chengqian nodded.

"How do we feel when we look at those Turks and Tibetans now?" Ye Tan asked rhetorically.

"Barbarian?" Although Li Chengqian's own bloodline may not be that clean, this sentence was recognized by everyone in the Tang Dynasty.

"Yes, barbarians." Ye Tan said, "As you can see from the country around us, the Turks are nomadic people, the Tubo are a little better, they farm and hunt, and the Koryos also have shops, and they farm more and hunt.

Even less, and our Tang Dynasty cultivates the most land and hunts very little, haven’t you noticed the relationship between this?”

"What's the relationship?" Li Chengqian's mind felt like it was mush. These things were too difficult.

"A relationship that develops from a simple nomad to our current Tang Dynasty step by step means that the so-called saints in the past are only at the level of Tubo now. In this case, what kind of saints can they achieve?

You can imagine the extent. It's just because they are our ancestors to give them face." Ye Tan's words made Li Chengqian speechless. He wanted to refute, but found that he couldn't say it, but it was impossible for him to accept it.

"Your Majesty's greatest talent is that he has endured hardship. He has endured hardship since he was a child, but his hardship is not the hardship of studying, but the hardship of the world. Because of this, Your Majesty knows what to do, but those emperors in the palace do not know.

Sometimes carnivores are contemptuous. In fact, it is not just the mentally retarded emperor, but many emperors are like this. The reason is that they don't know how to do something, but they think they know." Ye Tan saw the carriage when he walked to the door, and pulled Li Chengqian up.

.

This kid arrived at Suiyuan of Ye Tan's house in a daze. When he got out of the car, he was still a little confused and was slapped by Ye Tan and said, "What are you thinking about? If you don't understand, don't think about it. There are still big things to do today."

.”

Li Chengqian really couldn't figure it out because he couldn't figure it out. However, Ye Tan's slap made him sober up a lot. Yes, if he can't figure it out, he can talk about it later. Besides, he is so hungry now.

Walking into Suiyuan, he felt a little embarrassed looking at the desolation everywhere. This was given to Ye Tan by his father, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.

When he sat on the chair, his face became slightly better, he looked around unsteadily and said, "Brother, although your place is a bit desolate, this chair and stool are really good, can you?"

Looking at his shy look, Ye Tan said nonchalantly, "This is all a trivial matter. Can you do without the things I have? When you go back in the evening, take them back together. But, you have to be careful, His Majesty's hands are very

It’s long.”

"Ah?" Li Chengqian was a little embarrassed, but soon, the steamed buns, some side dishes and millet porridge came up. He didn't need to be watched here. Li Chengqian was like a child, so he just picked up a steamed bun.

He put it in his mouth, then picked up a few pieces of pig ears, and said while eating, "It's so delicious."

"If it's delicious, you can eat more. I'm training some cooks now. If I go back to Songzhou, you can treat this place as your own courtyard. You can come anytime you want." Ye Tan also picked one up.

Put it in your mouth, to be honest, it tastes just average, the meat here doesn't taste good.

"Thank you, brother." Li Chengqian had just gone for a run, so he was naturally hungry. He ate two steamed buns, which tasted really good, and drank two bowls of porridge.

After eating, the two of them walked around the nice lake a few times to make themselves comfortable. Then Ye Tan looked at Li Chengqian and said, "Watch my movements."

After saying that, a set of boxing skills came out from his hand, very slowly but quickly, and kept spinning. After Li Chengqian could understand a little bit more, he found that he still couldn't understand. Just when he was about to ask, Ye Tan

He slapped him on the head, and the Xiao Wuxiang Kung fell into his body.

"Close your eyes, think, and remember." Following Ye Tan's words, he closed his eyes and meditated. Although he couldn't practice inner energy, it could make his body much better. To use an awesome saying, even if he was a bad person,

, How can we eat, drink and have fun without a good body? Now Li Chengqian can't practice the overbearing skills, so Wu Qinxi is good for health. However, he plans to pass Baguazhang to him before leaving here. For the ancients,

, it’s too easy to remember this.

Li Chengqian, who was originally quiet, suddenly opened his eyes, and followed Ye Tan's movements just now, and kept moving, spreading his wings from the white crane, and came out one by one. When he finished the posture, he looked at Ye Tan and said, "Brother, this is

What boxing technique is so powerful?"

"This is called Tai Chi. It helps you to maintain your health. You have to practice it every day. After you get better, I will teach you a set of self-defense techniques. Of course, running is also required." Ye Tan said.

"What about this one?" He asked, pointing to his brain. That thing seemed to be more powerful, but he didn't know it.

"You don't need to know what a guidance technique is. As long as you practice it every day, it will be good for you." Ye Tan did not continue to say anything, just casually said, then looked at the sky and said, "Let's go.

Let’s go check out our food restaurant.”

Li Chengqian nodded. To be honest, it can be seen from his subsequent behavior that this guy is a violent maniac and likes to fight. In addition to the art of war, the most important thing in fighting is force. When you rush into other people's battles,

, you use violence when others use violence, and you are beaten to death as soon as you start. It is inappropriate. It is often not safe to rely on personal guards to protect you on the battlefield, just like when mountaineering, some equipment

You have to carry it yourself, because when something goes wrong, many times others can’t help you.

When you make iron, you must be strong, and sometimes it is not an empty talk.

The two got on the carriage and headed towards Shiweixuan. They saw many early risers along the way, but these people all had one characteristic, that is, they were thin, very thin, and their clothes were in tatters, which made Li Chengqian jealous.

"If one day you can make everyone who comes out here have glowing faces, wear clean clothes, and everyone can eat meat, then you will become an emperor through the ages." Ye Tan looked at Li Chengqian's little hand.

He was holding on tightly, and it seemed that he was stimulated. When you look at the so-called high officials in the palace, you will feel that all the Tang Dynasty people are rich.

"Brother, how can we do it?" It is too difficult to make everyone eat meat. Even during the reign of Emperor Wen and Jing, no one could do it.

"Some things seem difficult, but they are actually very simple. For example, let's eat. Everyone can't eat enough because there is no food." Ye Tan planned to tell him a little, but couldn't tell him everything. "Since there is no food, then

We just grow food, right? Now the court’s land system has been perfected. Everyone has a lot of land, and there will be a lot of food. Unfortunately, the yield per acre of land is very small, about one or two hundred kilograms.

When this happens, what we have to think about is how to make more crops grow in these lands."

"How long?" There was also a Sinong Temple in the Tang Dynasty, and its job was to manage it, but people in the past didn't pay much attention to it, because it was faster to study and become an official.

"You need to know how crops grow." Ye Tan continued, "Crops are the same as people. If you want them to grow big, just like people, you have to feed them.

You’re growing up and getting fat, right?”

Li Chengqian nodded and said, "Yes, people will easily become weak if they don't eat enough."

"Actually, the same is true for crops. Then we have to see how this crop can grow bigger and stronger?" Ye Tan said as plainly as possible, "What crops need to grow is fertile land.

And plenty of sunshine, right?”

This is common sense, Li Chengqian naturally knew it, and nodded to express his understanding.

"We can't do anything about sunshine, because it's a matter of God. But as long as the land is fertile, it can be done. This is interesting. You can't say that this land is fertile, so good food grows. And in some places

Food cannot grow, or not much. We need to see clearly why this land is fertile, and can it be improved?" Ye Tan continued, "For example, adding some plant ash, this is what many people do now, right?"

"Yes, many places use fires to fertilize, but the land loses weight within a few years of planting." Of course Li Chengqian knew this. This is the oldest method and is still used today.

"Then, what we have to consider is this plant ash. What does it consist of? Can it be replaced by other things, such as animal excrement and river mud? If so, can't we?

Have you been planting it all along?" Ye Tan's words made Li Chengqian's eyes light up. Yes, if river mud could be used instead, wouldn't it all be fertile land?

"Brother, you are so awesome." Li Chengqian asked excitedly.

"What's awesome? Think about it again. Some people's crops are strong and have more grains on them, while some people's crops are worse. At this time, we have to choose to continue planting the crops that are strong and have more grains. At the same time,

If we find that some crops are more drought-resistant and lodging-resistant than others, we can choose these. So, we make the crops high-yielding in three aspects. In this way, if one household can grow more than one acre of land,

If it's five hundred catties or one thousand catties, do you think they're still short of food?"

Ye Tan couldn't help but smile when he saw Shiweixuan arriving.

"Brother, what you said makes sense. If that's really the case, then my country in the Tang Dynasty will be forever." Li Chengqian felt that his blood was about to boil. At the same time, looking at the brother in front of him, he couldn't help but ask in his heart.

He said, "Brother, who are you, so powerful?"

As if he had seen his thoughts, Ye Tan nodded his head and said, "This is practice, and it is also the so-called analysis method. I will tell you the method in the future, and you will find that there is not much food in the Tang Dynasty that can be changed."

If you don't have many cattle and sheep, you can make them more abundant. If your weapons are not good, you can make them good. As long as you keep the people well fed and drunk, you can marry ten thousand wives at a time and the people will not think there is anything wrong."

"Ten thousand?" Li Chengqian opened his eyes wide, he didn't dare to think about this.
