When Cheng Chuliang left, Li Yuanjia gave him two gifts.
Chen Mu and the others finally made a few drawings of the mathematical artifact-the abacus that had been promised to him for a long time-that barely caught Li Yuanjia's eyes. Because of Cheng Chuliang's good performance today, our King Han decided to give him one.
As for the other one, of course it is the book "Abacus".
Li Yuanjia was very lucky that when he was in elementary school, computers were not around much. The school offered abacus courses, and after so many years, he still remembered some... It was said to be a book, but it was actually seven or eight pages, and it was recorded in detail.
Li Yuanjia doesn't remember the most basic usage of the abacus, as for the advanced usage, or he has never learned it.
But these days, the book he wrote... should be said to be a pamphlet, is enough.
If Cheng Chuliang is smarter, he should be able to learn it in a day and a half. Even if he is stupid, as long as he studies diligently and practices more, he should be able to learn it in three to five days.
"It's a pity, he's just a little stupid!"
After seeing Cheng Chuliang disappear from his sight, Li Yuanjia couldn't help but sigh and shook his head with some regret.
Yes, it's a pity.
In fact, from the perspective of dealing with people or some traditional knowledge, Cheng Chuliang can't really be considered stupid, at least he is above average - after all, he is Lu Guogong's second young master, and the education he received since he was a child must be top-notch. How bad can he be?
go?
But it's very strange, this guy just doesn't know how to do math!
Fortunately, Li Yuanjia met many such people when he was studying in his previous life. For example, his high school classmate was a girl who could crush him in all subjects such as Chinese, English and history. However, her exceeding scores were all in mathematics.
When I returned it, I even got a replacement!
This is talent, there is nothing you can do about it.
So it was just a little disappointing, and Li Yuanjia quickly put this matter behind him. Anyway, for him, Cheng Chuliang and his future descendants are indeed very important, and they are likely to be the ones who promote Arabia.
Numbers are an important factor, but there are still decades in life. Who knows what will happen later? Maybe people or things that seem important today will not be worth mentioning in a few years...
…
In Chang'an City, Li Yuanjia is busy taking care of the workshops outside the city and preparing for the party in Furong Garden next month. However, more than a hundred kilometers away... no, it should be said that it is the number one in the Tang Dynasty two or three hundred miles away.
At Li Palace and Jiucheng Palace, his second brother Li Shimin was not idle either. He was discussing an important decision with the ministers!
"Your Majesty, I still feel something is wrong!"
Frowning tightly, Wei Zheng bowed and said: "Not all Turks are willing to surrender to the Tang Dynasty. The rebellion led by the Ashina Association is the best evidence! So I thought that I was just going to exile He Luo'u.
Lingnan, moving the Turkic tribes to Hebei is not enough..."
"Okay, Wei Qing."
Before Wei Zheng could finish speaking, Li Shimin had already stood up from his chair and said with a firm face: "I have already said that this rebellion is just a few Turks who are confused. What does it have to do with other people?
Since they are willing to submit to me, the Tang Dynasty, we must be open-minded enough to accommodate them! Now that Heluo'u has been exiled and the Turkic tribes have gone north, it is already their punishment, so you don't need to worry too much!"
"His Majesty!"
"Your Majesty, minister..."
"No need to say more, this matter is settled!"
With a flick of his sleeve, Li Shimin no longer gave the ministers a chance to speak, and made the final decision decisively.
After hearing his words, even Wei Zheng had no choice but to shut his mouth. Although Wei Zheng was famous for being tough-necked and could often persuade the emperor, he also knew that once Li Shimin made up his mind, he
The persuasion was completely useless. And the most important thing is that the emperor's words are indeed reasonable. It is indeed unreasonable to use the rebellion of dozens of people to deny all the Turks who surrendered.
However, even if they remained silent, Wei Zheng and several other ministers' eyes frequently flashed with light when they lowered their heads - Turks must be guarded against!
Of course Li Shimin couldn't see the changes in their expressions, but he also had a deep understanding of these old subordinates and could guess what they were thinking at this time. So after subconsciously frowning, the emperor could only feel helpless.
I sighed in my heart.
From the bottom of his heart, of course he was angry.
But Li Shimin couldn't attack the Turks directly, because he had to have the mind of Tian Khan. Moreover, he knew that the current Tang Dynasty did not have enough power to truly suppress the barbarians from all directions, so he had to win over a group of them and fight them one by one.
Batch!
At least in Li Shimin's mind, there is a more important goal...
Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated and waved his hands directly: "Okay, everyone, let's not talk about these things... Well, I plan to go to the barracks to see the soldiers who were injured a few days ago. Lu Guogong, you and I
go together!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
After hearing Li Shimin's order, Cheng Zhijie, who had been silent in the palace, finally regained his energy and stood up.
The others looked at each other in disbelief and stood up helplessly to salute: "I will send you off to your majesty!"
If he were an ordinary emperor, it would definitely not be easy to go out at will, and it would be even more difficult to go to the military camp. But Li Shimin was obviously not an ordinary emperor.
The world was about to be conquered, and he was also one of the famous generals of the Tang Dynasty. Li Shimin's feelings and love for the army were unmatched by other emperors. Especially these loyal young men had just foiled a conspiracy not long ago.
There was a mutiny in which four guards were killed and more than ten people were injured. How could Li Shimin remain indifferent?
This is not his style!
But after leaving the main hall and ordering people to prepare horses, Li Shimin still sighed and said: "More than ten people were injured this time, and I don't know how many of them will survive... I remember that six or seven of them were seriously injured. I'm afraid they were seriously injured."
What a blessing!"
Although he has long been accustomed to life and death on the battlefield, Li Shimin has not been so close to a fight for several years since he took the emperor's throne. Moreover, the guards around him are not ordinary people. They are either heroes or queens.
Even among the members of the clan, losing one of them is heartbreaking, let alone losing so many at once?
However, as soon as Li Shimin finished speaking, Cheng Zhijie said in astonishment: "Why did your Majesty say this? Those guards are currently recovering from their injuries, so how could it be so bad?"
"Huh? What do you mean?"
After being stunned for a moment, Li Shimin suddenly widened his eyes: "Cheng Aiqing, you mean... none of the injured guards died?"
How can this be?!
He was an emperor who fought on the battlefield, and he saw no less dead people than Cheng Zhijie. He could tell just at a glance that day how many would survive and how many would die in the wounded barracks... Now Cheng Zhijie actually told him that they were all fine.
Recuperating from injuries, no one died?
Under the emperor's gaze, Cheng Zhijie was stunned for a moment, then blinked and said: "Your Majesty, no one died! Those two little guys did a great job, and they also said that the guards this time were very lucky.
