The chamberlain trotted forward, placed the pedals, and then bowed and saluted the people in the car: "My dear, please give your regards to King Jin."
The curtain opened and the people in the car bent down and came out.
When he stood still, Li Du adjusted his sleeves and clothes casually, looked around, and let out a long sigh of relief.
Looking at the white air coming out in front of his eyes, he sighed: "It's really cold today. Your Highness the Crown Prince is really young and energetic, and he is still interested in hunting in such a cold weather. Speaking of which, where are the others?"
The chamberlain hurriedly replied: "His Royal Highness has already set off into the woods."
"Oh?" Li Du asked as he walked forward, "Did you find the whereabouts of the prey?"
The chamberlain smiled and shook his head: "It seems not yet."
Li Du smiled softly and said: "The prince is still so impatient. Go and bring the horse, and I will look for him."
Soon, a servant came with Li Du's beloved horse. Read the book
It was a yellow gelding. It didn't look good just because of its coat color, but it was well trained. It had long limbs and looked strong and strong.
Li Du patted the horse's neck, got on his horse, and headed into the forest.
The personal guards and chamberlains all followed.
In the twelfth lunar month, very few royal family and nobles came to the forest farm, and the snow that fell in the past few times was still accumulated. Read a book
Easily, Li Du found Li Shao and his party through the traces in the snow.
Li Shao was sitting on his horse with his long bow on his back. He turned his head when he heard the sound and said, "Uncle is here?"
Li Du urged his horse to ride alongside Li Shao and said, "Is there anything to gain, Prince?"
"Not yet," Li Shao replied, "I don't know where they are hiding."
"Then why are you anxious? I see you are the first one to rush forward. There are so many people and they don't dare to let you walk alone. The vastness scares away all the prey," Li Du said with a smile, "Wait a moment, let's
The guards will serve as scouts for you, and they will disperse first. If they find anything, it won't be too late for you to come back."
Li Shao was a little unconvinced.
He has always been like this. Didn't he hunt a fat deer before?
However, what the second uncle said made sense, so Li Shao suppressed his dissatisfaction and signaled the guards to go find the deer.
Li Du accompanied Li Shao and let the horses move forward slowly and leisurely.
"Hunting is a pleasure," Li Du said, "Look at your expression, why does it feel like a chore?"
Li Shao curled his lips.
Isn’t he just doing a lot of hard work?
"My father asked me to go to the Six Ministries to observe the government after the new year." Li Shao said.
Li Du was stunned when he heard this, and then laughed again: "Isn't this a good thing? The six departments are observing politics and getting in touch with the practice, which is more intuitive than just listening to the lectures of the three orphans. Your Highness has studied with the three orphans for many years, and has accumulated a lot of various concepts.
, it’s time to combine them with practice.”
With a basic perspective, we can use it to analyze practical applications.
And if you have more exposure to practice, you will be able to sum up your experience, and in turn have a deeper understanding of the teachings of the gentlemen.
"That's what my father said," Li Shao said, paused, and then said, "I don't hate going to watch politics, I just don't like my father asking Xu Jian to follow me."
Li Du laughed heartily.
Li Shao was dissatisfied with the arrangement of the Holy Council, but Li Du was not surprised.
He also asked Xu Jian to go to Shuntian Mansion, and called people into the imperial study from time to time. The emperor's concern for Xu Jian was beyond words.
The intention is not difficult to guess.
Li Shao needs a reading companion.
It is not appropriate to say that it is a reading companion. The prince needs a reading companion who can supervise him and guide him, instead of a reading companion who dares not go west when the prince points east.
Xu Jian is exactly that kind of person.
After all, among the noble sons of the entire dynasty, Xu Jian was the only one who could tie up the prince without saying a word.
When Li Shao returned to Beijing last year and complained about this matter to him, Li Du held back and did not laugh on the spot.
With such hatred, how could the prince be willing to ask Xu Jian to take charge?
His sixth brother, the Emperor, was still too naive on this matter.
Thinking so, Li Du did not reveal Li Shao's secrets when he spoke: "To be honest, I thought it would take at least another year or two before the Holy One would let you observe politics.
He cultivates you, trusts you, and has thought of giving you all this country.
If I always hold you back, I am worried that I will delay you; if I let you go too early, I am afraid that the foundation will not be solid and will make you take more detours.
Tianjia father and son are kings and ministers, but he treats you like a real old father raising a son, and he thinks a lot about you.
After thinking about it like this, is there any other disciple who can meet his requirements better than Xu Jian?"
Li Shao pursed his lips and listened carefully to Li Du's words.
Li Shao knew very well how his father treated him, and he also knew that his uncle was telling the truth.
"But I really don't like Xu Jian, he is too difficult to get along with!" Li Shao muttered.
Li Du patted his waist and said, "I don't think this can all be attributed to Duke Fu."
Li Shao's eyes widened and he questioned: "Is it my problem?"
"That's not what I meant."
Compared with Li Shao's eagerness, Li Du is still slow and calm: "Getting along with peers is a science.
Your Highness is the eldest son of the emperor, and there is a big age difference between him and his younger brothers. When you were studying with Sangu, they could not even walk.
The two previous companion readers left you for their own reasons after not being with you for a few years.
The same goes for Duke Fu. Although he has a younger brother of about the same age, he has had very few contacts since he was a child, right?
I remember that he had been following the old man, studying and practicing martial arts, and I didn’t see him making many friends.
Later, he accepted the title early and went to court. He was young but had to be mature, so His Highness found him difficult to get along with."
Li Shao snorted.
Is Xu Jian mature?
Xu Jian was watching the fun in the court, and when he was talking about the fun, how could he look mature?
Uncle just put money on Xu Jian's face.
But aside from this point, the rest seems to make sense.
When Li Du saw his snort, he couldn't help but laugh: "I know what His Highness is thinking. Your Highness thinks that Duke Fu is having fun all day long, right?
If you don’t like Duke Fu to follow you, let me tell you, Duke Fu may not want to follow you either.
What fun can he have watching watching the government with His Highness’s six ministries? He’s even less interested.
It’s difficult to handle the sacred mandate.
Just think of it as showing sympathy for your father's intentions. If you look at your politics and see what's going on, Xu Jian will be able to do the job, so he won't bother to follow you."
Li Shao's eyes lit up.
What my uncle said makes sense.
He has a lot of talent, so he takes the initiative to step back and not argue with Xu Jian, so that everyone can stay on the same page.
I hope Xu Jian will not be ignorant of praise!
While the two were talking, a guard came back and pointed to the front and said: "Your Highness, we have found the trace of the deer. The young ones should follow it."
When Li Shao heard this, he immediately put Xu Jian's matter behind him and said to Li Du: "Let's catch up quickly!"
Soon, they saw the deer.
It has been alarmed and is running anxiously.
Li Shao didn't like the guards surrounding the prey. He came to shoot the last arrow. The kind of meat that was fed to his mouth made him achieve nothing, so the encirclement was very loose.
Seeing that the deer was about to run away, Li Shao took a bow and shot an arrow. With a whoosh, the long arrow pierced the deer's rear hip.
The deer was in pain and ran away screaming.
Li Shao laughed, followed the red blood stains on the snow, and rushed to the first one.
