Chapter 389 Although the road is far, it is coming
Because Lu Lingqi did not use force, even though Lan Yuan and Lan Ji were hit many times with bamboo sticks, they only suffered some pain in their skin and flesh, and no injuries to their muscles or bones.
Lan Yuan and Lan Ji had relatively good understanding. After Lu Lingqi suffered the same attack twice, they began to consciously use their practiced footwork to dodge.
"Mom, please stop attacking now. Let's continue practicing our footwork." Lan Ji found the right opportunity to duck aside, and the flesh under his clothes was burning with Lu Lingqi's fried bamboo shoots and meat.
After Lan Yuan supported Lan Ji independently for two moves, he found that his mother Lu Lingqi had indeed stopped attacking.
"Will you continue to practice footwork in the future?" Lu Lingqi asked meaningfully.
Lan Yuan and Lan Ji nodded at the same time. Without the support of their long-term footwork practice, the two children would have been beaten half as hard.
Lu Lingqi looked at Lan Tian's brows furrowed and knew that he still loved his children from the bottom of his heart, but he could not let Lan Tian lose his father's majesty, so she said in a deep voice: "It was your father who couldn't let go just now, otherwise there would be no need for me to take action, no matter what he did."
If you are anxious, you will suffer losses in the future if you have not laid a solid foundation. Do you understand?"
"Understood." Lan Yuan and Lan Ji replied in unison.
Lantian saw that his two sons looked calm and knew that Lu Lingqi's stick was strong enough for them to bear. Suddenly he caught a glimpse of Gao Yuan standing aside blankly.
"Didn't you go to patrol the courtyard? Why did you come back so soon? Is something wrong?" Lan Tian asked continuously.
Gao Yuan thought for a moment: "Magistrate Yao and Mr. Cheng Guo are here again. I told them that you are still resting in the back house, so just let them wait outside the main hall..."
Lan Tian was overjoyed when he heard this, "Didn't they go to Mengling yesterday? There should be good news now that they have returned. I will go to the main hall after I change my clothes."
"Sir, why are you in a hurry? Liu Xi doesn't understand current affairs, so just let them wait a little longer." Gao Yuan suggested.
Lan Tian shook his head and said: "Jiaozhou is the time to employ people, why bother to stick to those details? Besides, it is normal for capable people and strangers to have some quirks."
Lantian was about to go back to the house when he saw Lu Lingqi saying with a gentle face: "Husband, just wait here. I will go back to the house to get you a robe."
After Lu Lingqi finished speaking, she turned around and walked quickly to the bedroom. Lan Ji saw that her mother was so majestic just now, but now she was as docile as a kitten in front of her father, so she whispered in Lan Yuan's ear: "Brother, when did you say mother
, give us another brother or sister? Then she won’t have time to take care of us."
Lan Yuan was startled when he heard this. He felt that his parents were more restrained than other families. They had only two children after ten years of marriage. He said meaningfully: "When mother comes out later, won't you know if you ask her?"
Lan Ji quickly shook his head: "I won't ask, you are the elder brother and you ask..."
Lan Yuan said to himself: "As the saying goes, the more children the better, the mother will not be angry. Besides, I don't think she is strict."
"Brother, in two years I will be practicing martial arts with my long-bearded uncle. Then there will be no one to help you share your mother's attention. Just be prepared to live a hard life." Lan Ji said nonchalantly.
"I heard that General Guan is very majestic. Brother Ji, aren't you afraid that going to Jiangling will be more difficult?" Lan Yuan asked back.
Lan Ji replied calmly: "It's not like I never come back. I only stay in Jiangling half of the time every year. Besides, as long as I can learn real skills, what's the point of having to suffer a little? People in the house say that the long-bearded uncle is the best in the world.
Invincible, I also want to taste the taste of invincibility in the future."
Lan Yuan rolled his eyes at Lan Ji and uttered a few words: "The benevolent are invincible..."
"Brother..."
Lan Ji uncharacteristically pulled on Lan Yuan's clothes and acted coquettishly. This move surprised Lan Tian and Gao Yuan who were next to him. They thought that this kid still has a soft side?
Lan Tian didn't have time to ask why, Lu Lingqi had already strode over to Lan Tian, then put it on for Lan Tian before sending him out of the back house. When she turned around, she noticed that the two little ones were acting strangely.
Lu Lingqi frowned and asked, "What's wrong with you two? Did you strike too hard just now? I'm very measured."
"It doesn't hurt, brother, he has something to say." Lan Ji chuckled, then turned around and pushed Lan Yuan forward.
"Yuan'er, what's the matter with you?" Lu Lingqi asked curiously.
Lan Yuan swallowed his saliva, rolled his little eyes, and then said naively: "It's nothing important. Even Brother Ji wants to be a brother, so let me ask you when you will have a brother or sister..."
After Lan Yuan finished speaking, he ran away quickly, leaving Lan Ji alone in front of Lu Lingqi.
Lan Ji looked cute: Who am I? What am I doing? Where am I going?
After hearing this, Lu Lingqi blushed. She turned around quickly and shouted softly: "You should stay away from your parents' affairs. It seems that I will send you to Jiangling as soon as possible..."
"Oh okay...Mother, what did you just say?" When Lan Ji came to his senses, Lu Lingqi had already turned her back to him and walked away.
Lu Lingqi gently raised her hand and shook it. Lan Ji didn't know what it meant or whether her mother was angry.
Lan Ji: Brother, you misunderstood me...
Lantian didn't know that the two sons of the back house had assigned him a task. At this moment, he was receiving Liu Xi and Yao Qi in the main hall and the back hall. Yao Qi still looked humble and humble, while Liu Xi's vigor had also dropped a lot yesterday. It seemed that Meng Ling
Yi Xing had some insights.
"Disregarding the establishment of schools, the place governed by Fu Jun is indeed extraordinary. Jiaozhou may be able to catch up with the prosperity of the Central Plains in a few years." Liu Xi sighed sincerely.
Lan Tian smiled slightly: "Mr. Cheng Guo praised me so much, Tian feels a lot of pressure."
"My Lord has thousands of holes in his chest. He who mounts his horse, leads his troops, dismounts his horse, and governs the country is the most talented person in the world. With your help, Lord Xuande, why worry about the uncertainty of the world? Yesterday, I spoke here about the important events of the academy. After careful consideration, I would like to do my best."
Try..." Liu Xi stood up and bowed sincerely.
Lantian thought Liu Xi would refuse twice, but he didn't expect such a "sloppy" promise to him. He quickly helped him up and said, "With the help of sir, Guangzhou Academy will be like a Dinghaishen needle."
"The Lord is so complimentary, I'm just a corrupt scholar, and I don't know why the Lord values so much..." Liu Xi thought of yesterday's debate and suddenly felt ashamed of himself.
Lan Tian solemnly said: "It is easy to build schools and academies, and it is also easy to make paper books. It is difficult to find talents like Mr. How many classics have there been in the past and present? Why can't they reach the common people? In addition to being deliberately controlled by others, there is a big problem
The reason is that the ancient books are difficult to understand, and countless scholars have spent their entire lives trying to learn the essence of the sages.
If you can use the academy as a base to call on more like-minded people to interpret and annotate ancient books, and eventually form easy-to-understand 'new books', allowing them to become a ladder to climb the future, this contribution will not only benefit the present, but also benefit the future.
It can also benefit the generations to come.”
"The plan of the prince is bigger than this country, and the intention may be comparable to that of the sages of the ages. No matter whether the prince succeeds in the future or not, Xi Bucai is willing to do the hard work of dogs and horses." Liu Xi was greatly shocked when he heard this, and he stood up to salute with excitement.
Lantian helped Liu Xi up again, his eyes full of determination: "There is no road in this world. The more people walk, the more people will become the road. As long as we are willing to overcome thorns and thorns, if one generation is not enough, there will be ten generations or a hundred generations. Although the road is long, we can walk on it."
