There is always a sense of alienation, and recently this thought has appeared more and more frequently.
The carriage drove all the way to Chang'an City and then stopped. When she brought Xiao Wu to her home, she did not show any timidity, but looked around curiously. Li Yue walked into the house, and Xiao Wu walked with short legs.
, as if taking a risk, she looked around at first, until she wanted to reach out to the little bear, the little bear still backed away warily when facing strangers.
The little girl was very curious about everything. She picked up Xiao Wu again with both hands, and Li Yue held her in his arms. "You and the little bear are not familiar with each other yet. After it remembers your scent, you can also play with it."
Already."
Xiao Wu looked at the little bear and nodded.
"I'll take her to take a bath." Li Yue said looking at Xiao Wu who was still looking sloppy.
"Well, do we have any clothes at home that are suitable for her?"
"I just need to change my old clothes."
Without waiting for Zhang Yang to answer, she carried him to the bathroom.
Zhang Yang was packing some meat and vegetables, thinking about what to make tonight. Through the wall, he could hear the sound of water in the bathroom, and he could also hear his wife and Xiao Wu talking quietly.
"Why aren't you timid at all?"
Li Yue's words came.
Although it is not a good thing to listen to the roots of the wall, in this case where the choice of building materials is not abundant, it is difficult to achieve sound insulation. If you happen to hear it while cooking, it should not be considered eavesdropping.
"Daddy said that you must listen to Her Highness the Princess."
"You also have a senior sister, but she lives in the palace. I will teach you numeracy in the future."
Only the sound of water was left again, and the words stopped?
"You have to remember that it is your talent that makes me accept you as my disciple, not that I choose you."
"remember."
When dinner was served, there was a new guest in the house, and an extra bowl was placed on the table.
For a five-year-old girl to suddenly leave her parents, she was not timid or afraid to live with strangers even if the samurai Yun had told her to do so.
At night, the couple were doing the final touches on The West Chamber, and Xiao Wu quietly read a scroll of Chinese characters, not knowing how much she could understand.
After proofreading the contents of the two articles, Zhang Yang asked doubtfully: "Don't you think Xiao Wu is too dull?"
Li Yue glanced at Xiao Wu, who was concentrating on reading the scroll, "It is indeed too dull, not as lively as Li Zhi and others."
"I think she doesn't want to express her true feelings."
"Why is this happening?" Li Yue asked.
The flickering light of the oil lamp shone on the faces of the couple sitting opposite each other. Li Yue habitually poured a bowl of tea for the husband in front of her, and she took a dried date and chewed it in her mouth.
"Maybe it has something to do with the teachings of his father or mother since childhood," Zhang Yang thought.
"Yeah. I saw it today too."
She was a little worried about Xiao Wu. It is best for children to grow up lively and cheerful. Zhang Yang comforted her: "Bring her to the palace and let her play more with the children in the palace. You have to enlighten her slowly."
Bar."
Li Yue nodded, "She is still young now. She is only five years old and it is too late to cultivate her character. When she grows up, she may forget the memories before she was five years old."
After proofreading the first few articles, Li Yue organized them, "This is enough for us to print one volume. I will give it to Aunt Wang early in the morning and ask her to send it to the village to start preparations."
Zhang Yang drank tea and said, "This printing of five thousand copies is still at the old price of one hundred yuan a copy."
In this regard, Li Yue no longer cares about Zhang Yang. With these three projects, the village's productivity can be increased several times. "Well, everything will be fine."
After saying that, she hugged Xiao Wu and went to rest. Zhang Yang returned to his workbench and continued to polish a machine enlargement. He picked up a piece of flint and when it crossed the iron sheet, some sparks would fly out.
At dawn, the couple took Xiao Wu to have breakfast. Unexpectedly, they found that Xiao Wu particularly liked porridge. She ate a big bowl and still looked like she was still unsatisfied.
This was her first time going to the palace. Li Yue combed her hair, put on clothes and dressed her up.
Then she put on the old clothes she had worn before, which were much shorter.
Now Xiao Wu looks much more energetic.
When the couple walked out of the house, they looked like a family of three. The uncles and aunts in Dongshi were also curious when they saw them and talked in low voices.
Walking into the palace, Xiao Wu's eyes were observing each palace. Finally, her eyes fell on the Tai Chi Hall at the end of the Suzaku Gate, where she saw the center of power in the Tang Dynasty.
When she arrived at the Li Zheng Hall, the Tai Chi Hall disappeared from her sight, and then she looked away.
Seeing Li Yue bringing a girl to the Li Zheng Hall, the noisy children suddenly calmed down.
Li Yue introduced Xiao Wu to the queen and found out that the child was the daughter of Duke Ying. Queen Changsun smiled and said: "What a beautiful baby girl."
After saluting the queen and saying hello, Zhang Yang also walked to the East Palace.
At the entrance of the Chongwen Hall in front of the East Palace, Zhang Daan was explaining to Li Chengqian.
From the time he started compiling this book, Zhang Daan almost lived in Chongwen Hall for half a month.
Seeing Zhang Yang coming, Li Chengqian felt as if he had seen a savior.
The prince looked panicked, and Zhang Yang struggled to say: "Your Highness, why are you so panicked?"
Li Chengqian held this volume in his hand, "Da'an said that the outline of this book was written by Gu."
The first thing Zhang Yang saw when he took the book was four words of extracurricular reading.
Da'an is always so simple in choosing the titles of his books.
Opening the book and reading the text carefully, Zhang Yang nodded and said, "Well, it's well done."
Li Chengqian looked horrified, "Da'an said that this outline was written by Gu, and that it was written based on Gu's outline."
Zhang Yang nodded and said: "Yes, I watched the prince read this outline."
Hearing this, Li Chengqian held his forehead in pain, "Wait a minute, you let me reminisce."
Looking at Da'an's honest smile again, Zhang Yang said with a smile: "This is the first result of our Chongwen Museum. You have people hand over this result to His Majesty. Such extracurricular readings can arouse people's interest in reading and make them more active."
Let us learn more and become more literate in the Tang Dynasty, so that there will be more scholars in the Tang Dynasty. I will also convey these words of mine to Your Majesty."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Well, let's do it."
Li Chengqian's expression changed from pain to numbness.
Coming to his side, Zhang Yang whispered: "How do you remember His Royal Highness?"
"You really can write this kind of outline."
Seeing that he still didn't believe it, Zhang Yang walked into the Chongwen Hall. There was a short table with messy scrolls on it and a piece of rice paper taken out from the bottom.
What is written above is the original outline.
Zhang Yang put the outline in front of Li Chengqian and said, "Your Highness, please read it."
Li Chengqian said in confusion: "What are you looking at?"
"Please look at this outline. This is the outline that the prince recited and asked his ministers to record. What is the excerpt from the story collection written in the outline?"
Li Chengqian thought about it, "I once read a volume of stories at my mother's place. Yue'er had someone send me a story, so I made a copy of it and read it on weekdays to relieve my boredom."
"That's right." Zhang Yang pointed to one of the outlines again, "And this excerpt of Xian Yide?"
Li Chengqian nodded, "I have indeed recited it."
Zhang Yang pointed out another point, "Zuo Zhuan of the Spring and Autumn Period, the supreme leader has to establish virtue, the second has to perform meritorious service, and the third has to establish his words?"
"Gu remember, these are what I need to recite."
Li Chengqian kept nodding his head, the look of confusion in his eyes getting worse.
Zhang Yang smiled and said: "The prince remembers all the above, why can't the prince remember it? Did he forget it after drinking?"
Li Chengqian took a deep breath, frowned, closed his eyes and covered his face, "I feel very painful now."
Patting his back, Zhang Yang comforted him in a low voice: "If you can't remember it, don't think about it. Thinking about it will only make it more and more painful. Let's go drink tea and play chess."
"That's fine, that's fine."
Zhang Daan relayed some words to the palace officials and asked to give this book to His Majesty.
The eunuchs in the palace were very efficient in their work.
In less than half a stick of incense, the extracurricular reading volume appeared on Li Shimin's desk.
"Your Majesty, this book is from the Chongwen Museum of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and is specially presented to Your Majesty."
Li Shimin took the book and looked at the contents, "I asked Zhang Yang to open the Chongwen Museum, and he used this book to explain it to me?"
】
The eunuch bowed and said: "This book is an outline established by the prince. The outline was written by the young master Zhang Yang, and then compiled by Zhang Da'an of Chongwen Hall."
Li Shimin's expression could not be said to be good or bad, he just sat quietly.
This majesty alone made the eunuchs and maids on the side not dare to raise their heads or move.
After a long time, Li Shimin stood up and walked out of the Ganlu Hall, walked all the way through the Tai Chi Hall and came to the Ministry of Personnel.
At this moment, in the official department, Gao Shilian closed his eyes and rested his mind.
Hearing the small official whispering in his ear that Your Majesty is here, the elderly Gao Shilian slowly stood up and saw Li Shimin bowing and saluting, "I pay homage to Your Majesty. I have acted negligently and disrespectfully. Please forgive me."
With a look in his eyes, he told all the officials on the side to go out. Li Shimin put on a smile and supported Gao Shilian, "Why did my uncle say this? How can he punish me? Now that he is old, I specially asked the Ministry of Civil Affairs to send some more capable civil servants.
I hope I can share my worries with my uncle."
Li Shimin asked again, "I wonder how my uncle is doing these days?"
Gao Shilian stroked his beard and said: "I often forget things, often fall asleep, and forget the time. Sometimes I wake up and can't remember where I am. Only when my family comforts me do I know I am at home."
"I will arrange for the Imperial Medical Office to take a look at my uncle's health."
"No need." Gao Shilian shook his head and smiled, "This happens to people who are old and cannot be cured."
Holding Gao Shilian's hand, Li Shimin remained silent.
"I have entrusted many affairs of the civil service department to Yang Shidao, and most of the affairs here have been entrusted to him to preside over. He is a capable minister, but he is indecisive."
"I understand that the official department lacks ministers who can make decisions."
Gao Shilian nodded slowly, "It would be great if Du Ruhui was still here. With his talents, he will definitely be able to take up important positions in the civil service."
"Back then, those people served with me for half their lives, and they were able to enjoy their achievements in peace and quiet. Now that I want to build a prosperous age, they can't see it." Li Shimin said with emotion.
Gao Shilian looked at the table with his turbid eyes, "If Yang Shidao cannot be used in a big way, your Majesty can let Changsun Wuji be appointed as the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel. If not, Wei Zheng can also do it. The post of the Ministry of Personnel involves the promotion and appointment of officials, so your Majesty should be careful when appointing people.
Be careful."
"I will definitely remember my uncle's instructions." After saying this, Li Shimin took out a book and put it on the table. "I thought of Zhang Yang's talent, appointed him as the young master of the East Palace, let him stay with the prince, and opened a Chongwen Museum.
, half a month has passed, and now I have compiled such a book for me."
Gao Shilian was stunned for a moment, then picked up the book and opened it to read the contents.
"Why don't I listen to my uncle?"
"I can see it clearly." Gao Shilian couldn't help but nod after reading the first article, "I like the story of the farmer and the snake in the first article very much. Is it the farmer's kindness that harmed him, or was it the snake that bit the farmer to death?"
"What does uncle think?"
Gao Shilian shook his head, "The meaning is very good. If His Majesty hadn't mentioned the veteran, I would have almost forgotten this talented man who allowed the Tang Dynasty soldiers to win the Hexi Corridor without bloodshed."
Li Shimin nodded, "Now he has restrained himself a lot."
Gao Shilian asked again: "What position does he have now?"
Hearing this question, Li Shimin felt sad in his heart, but he pretended to be nonchalant and patiently repeated what he had said before, "I thought of his talent, so I kept him with the prince, and transformed Chongwen Palace into Chongwen Hall. I hope they can
Recruiting more talents and formulating strategies for governing the country are both a beating and a training."
"As a close minister of the crown prince, I am not eager for quick success, nor do I want to show off my talents in front of His Majesty." Gao Shilian thought and whispered again and again: "This person has written such a book?"
"That's right." Li Shimin still showed the respect that a junior should have.
Stroking his beard again, Gao Shilian smiled again, "Your Majesty has paved the way for him, but he is still treading water. Zhang Yang is young but not arrogant. Compiling this book is harmless, does not make meritorious deeds, and will not cause any trouble in the court."
Even if the people in the hall are biased, they will not make mistakes in the eyes of His Majesty, and this kind of move can also make generosity laughable."
After taking a sip of tea, Gao Shilian nodded, "It is true that compiling this book can benefit official learning. There are not too many books. As a close minister of the prince and not involved in government affairs, he can learn to be restrained and calm, and know what he should and should not do."
"I thought Zhang Yang didn't trust the court."
"No." Gao Shilian denied: "He is a child who knows how to measure. If your Majesty makes good use of it, he will be a minister beneficial to the country in the future. I wonder how his education is now?"
Li Shimin whispered: "I will arrange for him to meet his uncle."
Gao Shilian nodded slightly, "Maybe this is the last time I will see him in this life."
Li Shimin closed his eyes and breathed slowly, "Uncle, I must take good care of myself."
In the East Palace, Li Chengqian looked at the outline repeatedly and asked Zhang Daan, "Did you really compile that volume alone?"
"Back to the prince, the outline is very detailed, I just excerpted it."
"I never thought you had such ability before."
Zhang Daan bowed and said: "Brother often says that you should think more, and I will think about it for a long time every time I write."
"Your brother? Zhang Xiangxiang?"
"It's Zhang Yang. He treats his ministers like his own brothers, so he should be called an elder brother."
I thought Zhang Daan had become smarter after Zhang Yang's advice. Looking at his honest smile now, it was still the same as before. Li Chengqian shook his head and confirmed that he was overthinking.
