Anyway, it is "Three Hundred Poems", there are more than 300 poems, and it is impossible to copy them all in a day or two, not to mention that Li Yuanying couldn't finish copying them all in one go. .

On the day when Li Yuanying finished copying the "Book of Songs", Dong Xiaoyi happened to go back to the palace and told Li Yuanying that there were many people coming from the sunflower garden. Originally, there were only those who met at the foot of Lishan Mountain. Wang's subordinates followed after making a living, and when they found the sunflower garden, more than 300 people came together, a tenfold increase!

These are 300 people, not 300 chickens, ducks and geese, they cannot be treated lightly, Dong Xiaoyi asked someone to take them to settle down in several farms, and hurried to the palace to find Li Yuanying to report the matter.

Li Yuanying had expected that there would be quite a lot of people, but he was not surprised when he heard that there were more than three hundred people, but he felt that it was quite small. He felt that he had already communicated with His Majesty Li Er, and after knowing the specific situation of the three hundred people with Dong Xiaoyi, he went to talk to his eldest nephew.

It was the beginning of March, and the flowers and trees in the East Palace were full of fragrance. When Li Yuanying strolled past, the Crown Princess was playing with Li Xiang in the courtyard.

Seeing Li Yuanying from a distance, the emperor's grandson Li Xiang's black eyes lit up, he ran over with his short legs, and shouted childishly: "Yaoyao!"

Li Xiang was still young and couldn't remember too complicated a relationship. Because Li Yuanying and Li Zhi were about the same age, Li Zhi and the others called Li Yuanying "Uncle Yao", so Li Xiang simplified it and called Li Yuanying "Yaoyao".

As for the fact that Li Yuanying was his uncle in terms of seniority, Li Xiang couldn't understand it at all. He only knew that Li Yuanying always brought him delicious and fun things!

Seeing Li Xiang jolting towards him, Li Yuanying squatted down and lifted him up with his hands, weighed him, and boasted, "It's heavy!"

Li Xiang giggled happily.

Li Yuanying took out a small bag of popcorn to satisfy Li Xiang.

The Crown Princess knew that Li Yuanying and Li Chengqian had a good relationship, and she might have come to see Li Chengqian for something, so she pointed Li Yuanying in the direction and said that Li Chengqian was listening to Yu Zhining's lecture in the front hall.

As soon as Li Yuanying heard this, he immediately said that he would not go there first, and then play with Li Xiang.

This Yu Zhining was blacklisted by Li Yuanying. Of course, Yu Zhining didn't like him either horizontally or vertically!

When they came back from the Lishan Palace a few days ago, Yu Zhining did something: he wrote the words of advice to Li Chengqian into a thick twenty-volume book called "Admonishment Garden", and took advantage of the opportunity of His Majesty Li Er's return to present it directly To His Majesty Li Er!

It was a total of twenty volumes, ranging from Li Chengqian's hunting and abandoning his studies, to Li Chengqian's messy hair, all of which were written as persuasive articles and compiled into books!

This is really terrible, usually scolding is not enough, but I have to write articles to scold, and after scolding, I have to send it to the parents. What can the parents do? Of course, it means that the teacher has worked hard, and then turn around and beat up the son!

The more Li Yuanying thought about it, the more he felt that his eldest nephew was really miserable, and it was really not easy to be a crown prince. Li Yuanying asked people to look at the place where he was giving lectures, and he went there after Zhining had left, and then happily took the emperor and grandson to play.

After a while, the person sent out ran back to say that the lecture was over, and Li Yuanying returned the sweaty, flushed grandson to the princess, and ran to find his eldest nephew by himself!

Li Yuanying obviously wanted to avoid Yu Zhining, but unfortunately, Yu Zhining happened to be walking towards him from the road he had chosen.

This old man is the kind of person who doesn't allow himself to mess up a single strand of hair, even the wrinkles on his face are calculated to grow, neat and tidy, not messy at all.

As soon as Li Yuanying saw him, he wanted to hide, but when he turned his head and slipped halfway, he felt that he had to hide for what, but Yu Zhining couldn't scold him! Thinking of it this way, Li Yuanying stopped hiding, and walked up to meet people openly.

Yu Zhining presented the book "Admonition Garden" some time ago, and His Majesty Li Er specially appointed him to concurrently serve as Prince Zhan Shi. Li Yuanying happened to remember his new official position, and greeted him with a big swagger: "After Yu Zhan Shi finished speaking to Cheng Qian learned?"

Yu Zhining was very impressed with Li Yuanying, the famous little devil in the world, especially his "brilliant deeds".

Meeting by chance is worse than meeting by chance, Yu Zhining stroked his beard and sighed, and began to admonish Li Yuanying: "There is an old saying that a son of a daughter can't sit down. Your Highness is a son of a daughter, how can you learn how that barbarian rides on the back of an elephant? What if there is an accident?"

Then Yu Zhining began to conduct profound ideological education on Li Yuanying in response to this incident.

First of all, if you get hurt, all your relatives and friends will be sad for you. They care about you so much and love you so much, how can you make them worry about you

Then Yu Zhining comprehensively explained the social impact of Li Yuanying's actions. If everyone does not take care of his body, who will plow the fields, who will forge the utensils, and who will fight the enemy? As a member of the royal family, you are expected to lead by example and never put yourself in danger just to have fun!

Li Yuanying was dumbfounded.

This old man is over half a hundred years old, but he speaks in a breathless manner, and he doesn't even have to catch his breath when he gives advice and remonstrance without haste!

At the end, Li Yuanying's scalp was numb, and he hurriedly responded: "I know, you are tired of giving lectures to Chengqian, you should go and rest first!"

Yu Zhining nodded in satisfaction and left lightly.

Li Yuanying went to find his eldest nephew, sat down, drank the water from the left and right sides in one gulp, and said to Li Chengqian in shock, "Chengqian, you have worked so hard."

Li Chengqian only saw Li Yuanying once after he came back from Mount Li, and knew that Sun Simiao had shown it to His Majesty Li Er, but no one knew about it. Then Li Yuanying went to Li Jing's mansion to ride an elephant, and was punished by His Majesty Li Er.

Seeing the lingering fear on his face, Li Chengqian couldn't help asking: "What's wrong?"

Li Yuanying told Li Chengqian about his encounter with Yu Zhining, and looked at his elder nephew with great sympathy: "I really don't know what kind of life you usually live!" A Yu Zhining has this kind of skill, plus It is really scary to think about Kong Yingda and Zhang Xuansu.

Li Chengqian has been thinking about His Majesty Li Er's physical condition recently, and he has calmed down a lot, and he has been scolded less often. At most, he was a little bit unbearable to be thrown by His Majesty Li Er's twenty volumes of "Remonstrance Garden". Li Chengqian asked: "Is the elephant in Duke Wei's house bigger than the one in the palace?"

There are also some rare birds and animals in the palace for His Majesty Li Er to enjoy. They can go and see if they want to, but no one will dare to climb on the back of an elephant.

As soon as he talked about riding an elephant, Li Yuanying regained his energy and told Li Chengqian so and so. He was very yearning for Xiang Jun, whom he could only hear but not see, and said with Li Chengqian: "I think things in the south are fun, and things in the north are fun; things in the east are fun, and things in the west are also fun! It's a pity that they are too far away. Can't go at all!"

Li Chengqian only thought that Li Yuanying's words were vivid and very interesting, but he also felt very sorry to hear Li Yuanying mention this. He said: "It's easy, I'll find some people to play with you some other day."

Li Chengqian shared his play experience with Li Yuanying. He likes to play with Turkic people. He feels that they are bold and generous, and they are very comfortable in doing anything. Hunting with them makes him feel like he is in the prairie. Sometimes he felt that the Eastern Palace was too lonely, so he asked them to come and play with him. The bonfire was raised, singing and dancing, as lively as he wanted.

Li Chengqian said: "If you are really interested, I will ask someone to get a batch of elephants, and let the southerners on the elephants and the Turks on the horses practice it. It's just that such a big movement is not easy to make in the East Palace. Go outside!"

Li Yuanying became energetic as soon as he heard it, and his eyes were extremely bright: "Really?"

Li Chengqian said: "Of course." After he finished speaking, he remembered that Li Yuanying had sold him casually last time, so he couldn't help telling Li Yuanying, "Be careful with your mouth, and don't let the wind leak in front of the emperor, or you won't be able to play."

Hearing that the game might not work, Li Yuanying immediately promised: "I will never tell Brother Huang!"

Only then did Li Chengqian ask Li Yuanying what he was looking for.

Li Yuanying told Li Chengqian about taking in refugees. Li Yuanying had mentioned this matter to Li Chengqian last time, and Li Chengqian also promised that if Li Yuanying's villages couldn't accommodate so many people, he could find a place to settle down.

Hearing that three hundred people came at one time, Li Chengqian was a little surprised. Although 300 people is not too much, it can become a village with nearly 100 households.

Li Chengqian said: "I didn't expect that there are so many homeless people in Gyeonggi."

Li Yuanying said: "Now they have a home to return to, and some of my farms can still be resettled." He told Li Chengqian the basic situation, "Where can the laborers and women of the middle-aged and middle-aged people live, most of them will not be exiled to other places. My name is Dong Xiaoyi, and I have counted them one by one. They are old and young, and they can’t do much work. I don’t really lack people who do hard work, so the old man’s words mean to let them do the cooking. As for those children, I have a new idea."

Li Chengqian asked: "What do you think?"

Li Yuanying said: "When I arrive in the fief, I want to build a big academy. Don't I need a lot of literate people? It's not enough to sort out all kinds of books. A small half of the three hundred people are under ten years old." Children, I will first set up a primary school for them to get started. After one or two years of study, they should be able to learn both literacy and arithmetic. Those who are capable can continue to study, and those who are not capable will work under my hands. They have hands and feet, and they will have houses and fields in the future, so their lives will not be too bad."

Li Chengqian said: "This idea is very good."

Li Yuanying said shyly, "The problem is, I don't know many scholars. I'm going to ask someone to enlighten these children. I'm afraid they will kick me out. I think Cheng Qian, you are the prince, and you must know many scholars. , you talk to them, and they will definitely agree to recommend some suitable people to come over!" He held Li Chengqian's hand tightly, and said in an earnest tone, "Brother Huang said that we should do this together, Chengqian, you can't do nothing !"

Li Chengqian wanted to say "I don't know a few scholars", but he couldn't say that to Li Yuanying's bright eyes.

As a prince, how could he not even have a few scholars

Li Chengqian nodded and accepted the task entrusted by Li Yuanying.

Li Yuanying was not in a hurry to leave, he had been greatly inspired by Yu Zhining's lengthy exhortations just now, and he pulled Li Chengqian to discuss the rhetoric of recruiting a wife.

This kind of rhetoric can't be said in a small way, it makes people feel that it is too much to blame those illiterate beggars, Kai Meng, so they have to say as much as they want. First, they regret that although the Tang Dynasty is strong, there are still so many people suffering, and then they want to Praise them that this trip will set an example for the world, their small step, Datang's big leap, even future generations will remember their names!

After Li Yuanying finished talking about his idea eloquently, he looked at Li Chengqian earnestly: "Chengqian, you read more books than I do, so you must be able to write articles. You should quickly write an article according to this meaning, and you must write like those scholars. As soon as I read it, I burst into tears and was deeply moved, and I rushed to do it without money!"

Li Yuanying looked over with such expectation, can Li Chengqian say that he doesn't like writing articles

Of course it is impossible, Li Chengqian can only ask someone to study the ink under Li Yuanying's watchful eye, and write the article according to Li Yuanying's intention.

Li Yuanying can't write the article, but Li Yuanying can read it. When Li Chengqian writes a paragraph, he reads a paragraph beside him, actively encouraging Li Chengqian. Flattering is almost free, and he keeps saying "wow, this paragraph is so exquisitely written." "Chengqian, you are such a wonderful pen, you write very well." "Yes, yes, that's how you write, it's great."

Li Chengqian was silent for a while, if he didn't know what level Li Yuanying was, he would almost feel that he was a Wenqu star!

The author has something to say:

Yu Zhining used the skill "Shanggang Shangxian" on the little prince.

Ding, the little prince has successfully acquired the skill "Shanggang Shangxian".

Note:
