Li Chengqian was not in a hurry to leave. He said again: "Teacher, regarding the imperial grandfather, it is actually easier to handle. After all, it is not unfamiliar to perform filial piety under the knee of the imperial grandfather. But here with Wang Can, I
But it’s a bit difficult to handle.”
When Li Gang heard this, a stern look appeared on his old face, and he said in a deep voice: "Prince, since you are going to Wang Can's house, and even want to worship Wang Can as your teacher, then now, you are not calling Wang Can
, but call him Mr. Wang. Even in private situations, you should call him Mr. Wang."
"Be consistent in your words and deeds. This is a rule of life that I taught the prince."
"How you treat Wang Can should be the same in private. Only in this way can there be no pretense. If you are just pretending and pretending, then there is no need."
"Although a person like Wang Can is young, in my opinion, he is a talent that only comes out every five hundred years."
"His abilities and methods are extremely powerful."
"Wang Can's heart is also concerned about the people."
Although Li Gang had only heard about Wang Can, he was very good at it. Because of Wang Can, the family was completely devastated and completely suppressed. Because of Wang Can, there is no shortage of food in the world now, the people can eat well, and the number of refugees is increasing.
With fewer people, various places have become more stable, which is all attributed to Wang Can.
In particular, the transformation of Buddhism was particularly successful.
This was approved by Li Gang.
Li Chengqian listened to Li Gang's words, looking thoughtful and said: "Teacher, I understand."
"No, you don't understand."
Li Gang shook his head.
Li Chengqian said: "Teacher, please give me some instructions."
Li Gang said: "The prince is now at a sensible age and is also old enough to participate in government affairs. It stands to reason that he should understand some of the intrigues and deceitful ways in which he is courted, as well as the treacherous nature of people's hearts."
"Although I have some skills that I cannot teach to the Crown Prince at will, but since I have become the Crown Prince's teacher, I must fulfill my duties in order to live up to His Majesty's high expectations."
"The prince needs to be benevolent and his words and deeds must be consistent."
"However, the prince must have means."
"In the face of a sincere gentleman, the prince should be consistent in his words and deeds, and should be loyal to his confidants. However, in the face of a cunning person, the prince needs to have the means to paralyze the other person, and he needs to be able to be coy and submissive."
Li Gang said in a deep voice: "This is just talking about people's opinions when you see them, and talking about plans when you see ghosts."
Li Chengqian said: "Teacher, this disciple understands."
Li Gang and Li Chengqian respected Li Gang very much.
Because Li Gang was as gentle as jade, after all, he was already old, and his hot temper had long gone. Moreover, Li Chengqian was extremely filial and respected him, so Li Gang had high hopes for Li Chengqian.
Li Gang stroked the beard under his chin. He had been sitting for a while, but he was a little tired, so he leaned back slightly and leaned on the back of the chair.
Li Gang said: "Prince, you are still young and have not experienced much, so you say you understand. In fact, you don't understand very well. When you see people talking about others, when you see ghosts, you talk about ghosts. There is a degree to be grasped, that is, face-to-face."
When it comes to people you can truly trust, you need to be able to convince them. But when it comes to cunning people, you have to be willing to give in. In fact, you can do it. The other person can do it too, and even the other person's level is far higher than yours.
, this requires a perspective on people. This requires the prince to have enough experience and understanding to be able to do what I just said."
Li Chengqian nodded and said, "What the teacher said is true."
At this time, Li Chengqian looked thoughtful. After a moment, Li Chengqian said: "Teacher, I can't have a sharp eye like you, and I can't judge whether a person is good or bad at a glance. However, I can't.
You can inquire from many sources and synthesize various information, so that you can judge a person's authenticity."
"Hahaha……"
After Li Gang heard this, he stroked his beard and laughed.
He looked full of comfort.
Li Chengqian said: "Teacher, what are you laughing at?"
Li Gang said with a smile: "The reason why I laugh is because children can be taught. It is very good for a prince to inquire about information from many sources to judge a person's authenticity. Even if a person is good at pretending, there are always things in life.
There is a lot of information that can reveal what kind of person he is. In this way, the prince can make a judgment."
Li Chengqian said humbly: "Teacher is so complimentary."
He was still quite happy inside.
Li Chengqian was extremely happy to be praised by Li Gang, especially since he respected Li Gang very much.
Li Gang said in a deep voice: "What I just said was a bit far. Now let's get back to the topic and come back to Wang Can. Wang Can's current status is extremely important in the court. To put it bluntly, once Wang Can
If the prince is said to be unteachable or incompetent, then the prince's status may be affected. After all, whether it is with the Supreme Emperor or His Majesty, Wang Can has enough influence to affect the prince's status.
.”
"On the other hand, once the prince gains Wang Can's support, the prince's status will be extremely stable."
"It's no exaggeration to say it's impregnable."
"Now the prince must have felt the pressure from the king of Yue, right."
Li Gang's words were very slow and his voice was quite hoarse, but they reached Li Chengqian's ears clearly.
After Li Chengqian heard this, his expression changed slightly, but he nodded and said, "What the teacher said is true. Now, a group of ministers have gathered around the second brother. These people are pushing the second brother hard, and they want to
Trying to seize my position as the crown prince. Furthermore, my father, although he thinks highly of me, he also loves his second brother very much, so the second brother puts a lot of pressure on me."
Li Gang said in a deep voice: "Whether he is the prince or the king of Yue, they are all your majesty's sons, and they are all sons of the queen. Their palms and backs are full of flesh, so naturally they are all doted on. The difference is that your majesty respects the prince.
It is to allow the prince to participate in government affairs. As for the King of Yue, His Majesty favors him, but for many people, this favor becomes their opportunity."
Li Chengqian gritted his teeth and said, "These people are really hateful."
Li Gang said: "As long as you have power, there will be people chasing you. As long as there is an opportunity, there will be people there. Even if there are risks, there will still be countless people flocking to you. So there is no need to be too harsh on this point.
"
Li Chengqian said: "It's really shameful for a disciple not to have the broadmindedness of a teacher."
Li Gang said: "The prince does not have to be like this. For the prince, the prince has his own way of doing things. The threat of the King of Yue is self-evident. But now, I think it is an opportunity for the prince. I can conclude that as long as the prince can worship Wang Can as his disciple
, as long as Wang Can's support is obtained, the prince's status will be completely consolidated. No matter how the King of Yue tries, no matter how the King of Yue tries, it is all nonsense and cannot shake the status of the prince. Therefore, there is no need for the prince to arrest him at the moment.
Seize the opportunity.”
Li Chengqian said: "Teacher's teachings, the disciples understand. Speaking of which, Mr. Wang is indeed powerful, and he has made great contributions to his father, grandfather, and mother."
Li Gang smiled and said, "As long as the prince understands."
After a pause, Li Gang continued: "Of course, it is not easy for the prince to become a disciple. If it were easy, then there would be no need to hang around Wang Can on the grounds of being filial to the Supreme Emperor. It is inevitable.
Wang Can is not very willing, but His Majesty hopes that both the Crown Prince and the King of Yue can receive instruction, so this arrangement was made."
"The prince cannot maintain his own identity when he arrives at the Wang family. You have to remember that after you arrive at the Wang family, you will be a junior in his teens, not a superior prince."
"Once this mentality is correct, everything will be easy."
"If you stand high, everything will stop."
"If the prince wants to accept Wang Can as his teacher, he must not be impatient. He needs to be willing to work hard, and even more so, he needs to have the means to turn spring breeze into rain. In this way, even if it does not succeed in the end, I believe that Wang Can will have a very good impression of the prince.
"
Li Gang said: "This is what I taught the prince. I have nothing more to say."
"Ahem..."
Having said this, Li Gang suddenly started coughing.
He is old after all.
This cough touched his heart, and Li Gang himself felt a little uncomfortable. After all, he was old and had some old diseases, so when he coughed, his face turned red, his ears became swollen, his eyes even had bloodshot eyes, and he kept coughing.
When Li Chengqian saw this, he stood up quickly, rushed behind Li Gang, patted Li Gang's back, and cheered Li Gang. It took a long time before Li Gang recovered.
But when he coughed, he coughed up blood.
There is a little bit of blood.
When Li Chengqian saw this, he raised his brows and said, "Teacher, your illness has been delayed for a long time?"
Li Gang smiled, waved his hand and said: "The root cause of the old disease is not a serious problem. Moreover, His Majesty also arranged for an imperial doctor to diagnose and treat this illness. It is just a condition in the lungs, but it is not a serious problem. The imperial doctor prescribed it.
It’s yours, so the prince doesn’t have to worry.”
When Li Chengqian heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief. His mind turned and he immediately said: "Teacher, you still need to pay attention to your health."
Li Gang said: "It doesn't matter, we are of average age after all."
At this time, Li Chengqian stroked Li Gang's back again. After a while, Li Chengqian stopped. He looked at Li Gang and said, "Teacher, please pay attention to your health. I have to prepare to go to Mr. Wang's home, so I will leave first."
"Go for it!"
Li Gang nodded.
Li Chengqian stood up again and bowed before turning and leaving.
Li Gang looked at Li Chengqian's leaving figure with a smile on his lips. He was extremely satisfied with Li Chengqian's temperament and wisdom. Both Li Chengqian's temperament and Li Chengqian's wisdom were extremely outstanding.
Therefore, Li Gang hopes that Li Chengqian can grow up steadily and inherit the position of the Ninth Five-Year Plan. And Li Gang also hopes that he can live a few more years to protect Li Chengqian. (To be continued)
