royal robes

Chapter 981

"Don't listen to him, he's talking nonsense." Li Hongmao said: "Look at Father, is he really doing what he said? He has been fighting for years, and he still has to fight when there is no money in the treasury." , Is this knowing people and making good use of them? He just didn’t want to use others, so he went to fight in person. Just like this time, after Chai Rong was sent to Shouzhou, Huangfu Jixun was able to retreat, but he needed the military power in the hands of his father, and his father would take the military power Is it in his hands? Maybe after finishing the big week, I will go back to Jinling and rebel immediately. What will I do then? Don’t ask others for help if you can do it yourself. Just like Taoist Wu Yazi taught me martial arts , although he is protecting me as a guard, he is also teaching me the ability to protect myself. Only if I can protect myself, I don’t need to rely on others to survive. Big Brother, I finally met such a good Taoist Master Wu Yazi Teacher, I would like to take this opportunity to transform myself from an idiot to a man of great potential. If you want, let’s go together. I hope you can also feel how I feel now. Ecstatic as rain."

Li Hongji admired: "It's really you who convinced me... Daoist Wu Yazi, what did you teach him? How happy he is?"

"Pindao just taught the king of Chu some simple body skills to avoid attacks and protect himself. He didn't teach other things. But every day, Pindao made the king of Chu do all kinds of hard work. After the work, he asked The king of Chu has a feeling, if the feeling that the king of Chu said can be recognized by the poor, then this day's work will not be in vain. Investigate things to know, be sincere and upright, cultivate one's morality and family, govern the country and the world. Only now have you reached the first place There is still a long way to go in the future, but as long as the most basic point is done well, things will be logical in the future."

Li Hongji's words from Tianya are not very rational. He was sleeping when he was taught the Eight Eyes before, but the words were familiar to him.Of course, Li Hongmao didn't quite understand what this meant, because the two brothers were idiots and didn't even have the most basic knowledge.

But there is one thing Li Hongmao knows very well, it is useless to memorize these articles, the key is to do it.All day long, I only know about "investigating things to gain knowledge". These four words are useless for a lifetime, so it is better to do this thing directly.

'Papa papa~~~'

Venerable Bai Lian clapped his hands and said: "It's amazing, it's amazing~~ Daoist Wu Yazi can make King Ji and King Chu take care of him. This is the greatest blessing in the Tang Dynasty, and I am so admired by this old man."

Venerable Bailian never thought about this possibility. The eldest prince and the second prince actually changed their ways?How can this be?Even after the Great Tang defeated the Great Zhou, Venerable Bai Lian had thought about things like counterattacking Khitan and regaining Xishu, but he hadn't thought about such outrageous things as these two men turning their backs.

Tianya said politely: "Your Majesty, the words are serious. The King of Ji and the King of Chu were originally born smart, so they just need to mention something from the side. It's just that those people were too loose in the past, and they didn't dare to reprimand them due to the identities of the two crown princes. A poor man with high martial arts skills , so I am brave enough, and I am not afraid of ruining my job. Because Pindao can use martial arts to ensure that the King of Chu will not break his promise."

What Tian Ya said was blunt, but Li Hongmao and Li Hongji really felt something. Those teachers who taught them in the past obeyed them, and they stopped immediately when they were a little tired.Being used by the teacher like this, the child's self-control ability is already poor, and he will not be able to go to school at all over time.

It is the fault of not raising the father, and the laziness of the teacher is not strict.But sometimes the teacher can't help it. If the teacher can't afford to provoke the child, don't let him teach the child.

Tian Ya's words also let Li Hongmao and Li Hongji know this truth. If you want your child to be successful in the future, you must find a teacher who has a bad temper and is not afraid of death. It's hard to get it back.

Li Hongji suddenly said: "Second brother, what did you learn on the first day?"

"Farming... I'm so tired~ I'm almost exhausted, I can't straighten my waist. But I can't help it. Daoist Wu Yazi has been watching from the side. If I dare to be lazy, he will really hit me. At that time, I was so angry that I almost turned my face off, but Taoist Wu Yazi's martial arts were higher than mine, so I didn't dare to turn my face off. After planting the land for a day, I didn't go back to Chu Palace, but ate at the farmhouse. The taste... I actually I thought it was delicious. After I came back, Taoist Master Wu Yazi asked me what I had learned. Brother, what do you think I was talking about?"

"The most delicious thing in the world is nothing more than a mouthful of peaceful tea and rice?"

Li Hongji is also ready to start using his brain. He thinks he is very smart, but most of the time he doesn't want to use his brain.Li Hongji didn't know where he heard this sentence, anyway, he felt that Taoist Wu Yazi wanted to hear this sentence, so he asked the second child to farm.

Li Hongmao said: "We are really brothers... I did say that at the time, but unfortunately, Taoist Wu Yazi directly called me an idiot, and the next day I was called to farm again. The process is the same, After returning to Chu Palace, Daoist Wu Yazi asked me what I had learned, at that time I talked about some topics that I chatted with the farmer, and the more I talked, the happier I became."

"What did you and the farmer talk about?"

"Actually, it's not a big deal. I'm just talking about recent food prices, wine prices, and salt prices. I learned a lot from these things. Brother, do you know how much food prices are in Southern Tang today? Why do people all over the world say that the Southern Tang Dynasty is rich?"

Li Hongji looked at his second son awkwardly, he was simply asking knowingly and deliberately.How could I possibly know these things?

Li Hongmao said: "Nowadays, the price of grain in Southern Tang is 25 Wen a dou, and that in Dazhou is 30 Wen a dou, so there is only a difference of 10 Wen in Southern Tang than in Da Zhou. At this time The price of salt in Dazhou was 500 Wen per catty, while that in Southern Tang was 650 to 680 Wen per catty. Although the amount of salt was not much, Da Zhou was already richer than Southern Tang at this time. All the prices in the world The richness of the people is based on the price of food and the price of salt. The cheaper the price of food, the easier the life of the people there, and the richer they are. The lower the price of salt, the better the economy. The more prosperous the people, the happier the people's lives. This is the real reason for the prosperity of the Southern Tang Dynasty, and this is not accurate, because the economy of Da Zhou is about to catch up with that of the Southern Tang Dynasty, not to mention that Chai Rong's treasury is bigger than that of his father. The emperor's treasury is much richer, if I don't hold on to the fat of Tanzhou, the economy of the Southern Tang Dynasty will completely collapse if I continue to fight, and the soldiers will not even be able to afford food."

"Is it so serious?" Li Hongji didn't understand many things, but he usually went to brothels to drink flower wine, and he could spend hundreds of taels of silver at a time, and sometimes even thousands of taels of silver.In his eyes, money is not that important, and he thinks he has more money than he can spend.

Li Hongji has never understood why the national treasury has been empty, why money is so important to his father, and his father was angry for half a month when he lost food and supplies. If he wants these things, he can easily get them.

Li Hongmao nodded and said: "Anyway, I think it's more serious than you imagined, because you have never planted a field, so you don't know the value of food at all. Who knows that every grain of Chinese food is hard work. I did it after planting a field. Only then did I know the true meaning of this sentence. People who can read this poem may not necessarily understand the truth. I also understand that the words left by the ancients are not for us to recite, but for us to do."

Li Hongji understood this and it was completely understandable.In fact, Li Hongji couldn't listen to what most people said, but he was willing to listen to what the second son said, and it sounded very reasonable.

"I didn't expect the second child to have made such great progress. I can't lose to you as a brother." Li Hongji cupped his hands and said, "The Taoist Master Wu Yazi, please take care of him from now on."

Wuya Daozi said: "His Royal Highness, please first forgive the innocence of the poor."

"What does it mean?"

"Pindao will definitely risk His Highness the Crown Prince when he gives advice, and His Highness the Crown Prince will definitely lose his temper at that time. The Pindao will hit you if you want to, and scold you if you want to. If you really can't, the Pindao may hang you upside down outside the house. It will last all night. Even if you want to give up halfway, Pindao will chase after you into the palace and force you to complete what you should do. If His Highness accepts it, Pindao will agree."

Li Hongji looked at the second child in surprise, and then asked: "Second child, are you really so strict?"

"Really... I was beaten so many times that I almost vomited blood once." Li Hongmao said awkwardly: "But what Taoist Master Wu Yazi taught is really useful, not to mention that you can't get angry without beating. If you want to How can it be so easy to learn skills? Do you think the third child has never been beaten? He must have been beaten to have such good martial arts and knowledge."

Wu Yazi nodded and said: "Your Highness is right, the harder you beat, the more you will learn."

Li Hongji took a deep breath and said, "Don't worry, Taoist Priest Wu Yazi, I can endure the hardships my second brother can endure. Please don't be merciful, Taoist Priest Wu Yazi, and use whatever means you can. Second brother When I grow up, I, as an older brother, don’t want to fall behind.”

"The two of you are also very self-motivated..." Tian Ya actually quite admired him. In the past two years, he has become quite young. Li Hongji is already 27 years old, and Li Hongmao is now 25 years old. This heart is no longer easy.

In fact, these two people didn't really want to be idiots, but they couldn't help it. Their status was too high for the teacher to control.As long as these two people are self-willed enough, even Li Jing, who is the emperor, will not be able to control them.In this state, how can it be possible to learn something by suffering?
When he was young, Huangfu Hui could manage it, but the National People's Congress had a big heart. After they realized how high their status was, Huangfu Hui couldn't do anything about these two idiots.
