Chapter 147 Just let it be the academy forever
Chapter 196 Just let it be the academy forever
Qianzhou was originally an extremely backward place. Before Li Chengqian came here, the people of Qianzhou could not even eat.

After Li Chengqian arrived, he started a series of reforms, which gave Qianzhou what it is today.

In the few months when Li Chengqian went to Chang'an, Zhuge Liang had already promoted potatoes to the entire Qianzhou.

Now Qianzhou will never worry about food.

They can sell the excess grain and use the money for other purposes...

It can be said that except that Qianzhou is not as rich as Yangzhou, other supporting facilities are not bad.

Moreover, Li Chengqian is sure that once the Maritime Silk Road in Guangzhou is opened up, the business in Qianzhou will develop rapidly.

Therefore, most of the people in Qianzhou don't know who the emperor is, but they know the king of Qian very well.

Especially with the superb skills of those painters, Li Chengqian's lifelike portrait became the cover of the newspaper.

Moreover, the newspaper was printed with movable type printing. Although the printing effect was a little blurry, Li Chengqian's appearance could still be seen.

So now, almost no one in Qianzhou didn't know Li Chengqian.

The people recognized Li Chengqian at first sight and saluted him respectfully. As for Li Shimin standing in front of Li Chengqian, he naturally ignored him.

"... "

The atmosphere froze all of a sudden.

The corners of Li Chengqian's mouth twitched. Looking at Li Shimin's back, he shuddered, then immediately stepped forward and said to the commoner, "Let me introduce you, this is His Majesty the Emperor of Tang Dynasty!"

The common people were puzzled, "What is an emperor?"

"... "

Li Chengqian wanted to explain, but Li Shimin patted him on the shoulder, smiled and said to the people: "Old man, what is this?"

Li Shimin's attitude was good, and Li Chengqian was still behind him, so the people quickly explained: "This thing is called a faucet, and there are many iron pipes under it. They extend all the way to the Qianjiang River. The water we use is all drawn from the Qianjiang River." of."

"Huh?" Li Shimin said in surprise: "Isn't it very convenient to use water?"

"Yes, it's very convenient. We don't need to go all the way to the river to fetch water. We just need to twist the faucet to get water!"

Li Shimin put it on the faucet, and then turned it gently.

crunch...tick tock...

Huh?
After twisting for a while, Li Shimin took a long breath, and then looked at the sky with a melancholy expression.

Li Chengqian understood in seconds...

"Father, don't worry, the method of making the faucet will be the same as cement, and I will give it to my father!"

"Hahaha, what a big boy of mine!"

Li Shimin raised his head and laughed loudly, full of joy in his laughter.

As for Li Chengqian, he could only smile bitterly.

A thief broke into the house, but within half an hour, the cement and faucets had to be delivered to others.

If you look at this for a while, you don't know how many things will suffer...

"By the way, didn't you say that there is an academy in Qianzhou? Take me to see it." Li Shimin said again.

Li Chengqian nodded, and then took Li Shimin and the others to Bailu Academy.

After more than a year of development, Bailu Academy has also ushered in a huge development.

Originally there were only more than 30 old masters and 60 students, but now it has expanded to more than [-] old masters and [-] students.

Young people from Qianzhou, Chenzhou and other places come to the academy to study. The education in Qianzhou can be said to be thriving.

Now that the Qianzhou government also has extra spare money, Zhuge Liang has already started to set up branches of Bailu Academy in Chenzhou and other places, so that more students can be guaranteed to study.

"The Master said: If you learn the new by reviewing the old, you can be a teacher."

"The Master said: Learning without thinking is useless; thinking without learning is perilous."

As soon as I arrived outside the academy, I could hear the sound of reading aloud.

It just so happened that at this time, Chen Yuanjing, the dean of Bailu Academy, came out with the book in his arms. When he saw Li Chengqian, he immediately put the book aside neatly, then trotted over, and said respectfully, "Your Highness, why are you here?"

Li Chengqian pointed to Li Shimin, and introduced: "This is my father, and also the current emperor!"

"what?"

Chen Yuanjing is not like ordinary people. He is familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics. He was once quite famous in Zizhou, so he naturally understands the concept of an emperor.

"Villain Chen Yuanjing, see Your Majesty!"

After Chen Yuanjing finished speaking, he knelt on the ground.

Li Shimin waved his hand to signal him to get up, and then asked, "Who are you?"

Chen Yuanjing said hastily: "The villain is the dean of this White Deer Academy."

"Is that so..."

Li Shimin looked up, and through the half-hidden wooden door, he could clearly see the students sitting in the school.

They don't wear gorgeous clothes like the supervisors of the Guozijian, and the masters who teach knowledge are not great Confucians in the world.

However, the spirit exuded from these students was much better than those from the Imperial College.

They are all full of vigor and vitality, their faces are full of hope and longing for the future, unlike the group of supervising students in the Imperial College, except for a few people, most of them go in for gilding and just dawdle.

Li Shimin took a deep look at them, then turned to Li Chengqian and said, "Academy, let it remain the academy."

Li Chengqian was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Father, don't worry, the academy is a place to teach and educate people. I know this very well, so the nature of Bailu Academy will never change!"

Li Shimin nodded, "I hope you can remember today's words well!"

"Okay, I've been exhausted recently, and I'm really a little sleepy. Chengqian, you can arrange a place to live, so I can take a rest."

Li Chengqian said: "Well, my son knows it!"

Afterwards, he asked Zhuge Liang to lead the way. Qianzhou had changed so much recently that he didn't even know the way, so he had to let Zhuge Liang lead the way.

Li Shimin didn't care about this, and after arguing with Li Chengqian, he left with Zhuge Liang.

On the way, Li Shimin walked for a while, turned around and chatted: "Are you the governor of Qianzhou?"

Zhuge Liang said: "Your Majesty, yes."

"Um…"

Li Shimin nodded with a smile, "Chengqian has a good eye, Qianzhou can have today's appearance, thanks to you!"

"It's all thanks to His Highness, I just followed suit, it's nothing to worry about!" Zhuge Liang said.

Li Shimin looked at him unexpectedly, raised his eyebrows and asked, "What's your name?"

Zhuge Liang said: "The minister is called Zhuge Liang..."

"Cough cough cough..."

The eldest grandson Wuji and others behind Li Shimin couldn't help coughing loudly.

Li Shimin also had a strange expression on his face, but he was the emperor after all, and he had a firm mind, so he didn't show it, but asked, "Your name is Zhuge Liang?"

Zhuge nodded, "That's right."

"That's it..." Li Shimin pondered for a while, "I want to know the current situation in Qianzhou, so you can write it down and hand it over to me tomorrow."

Zhuge Liang was stunned for a moment, then he cupped his hands and said, "Here!"

Under the leadership of Zhuge Liang, they soon arrived at the newly built post in Qianzhou.

And Li Chengqian also arrived at the new Qianwang Mansion.

"Wow... so beautiful... Compared with the Qianwang Mansion in Chang'an, it's not too far behind!"

As soon as they entered the mansion, Su Han and Wu Yan were like two jumping sparrows, jumping around the rockery pool.

I have to say, it's good to be rich. In a word, everything can be done properly.

Compared with the previous Qianzhou Governor's Mansion, this Qianwang Mansion is simply heaven!
