"Your Highness, why don't you let the young master try it?”Consort Qin suggested.

As soon as he said this, the young princess in her arms immediately held her breath.

Seeing the hesitation on Li Er's face, Consort Qin said slowly,"

"As the saying goes, one should have both virtue and ability. Virtue should come first, followed by talent and learning. I see that Young Master has a dignified character and is both a teacher and a friend of Lizhi.”

Hearing this, Li Chuan could not help but be slightly stunned. He did not expect that in just a few days of interaction, he would have such a high evaluation in the princess consort's heart.

At this moment, the young princess jumped out of the princess consort's arms and landed behind Li Chuan. With tears in her eyes, she looked at Li Er and said,"

"I want to learn from my brother. Mother has agreed.”

"Good, good, good." Li Er's heart softened and he quickly agreed,"From now on, Lizhi and Sister An Lan will study together with Brother.”

Finally, the young princess smiled through her tears. She ran around the stone table happily like a nimble swallow, shuttling through the night breeze.

"In the future, I'll have to trouble Young Master to take care of the two princesses 'studies.”Li Er cupped his hands.

"It's fine. Your Highness, you're too kind. It's my honor.”Li Chuan smiled.

Just like that, Li Chuan became the teacher of the two princesses.

The next morning, more than ten guards carried two large wooden boxes and carefully placed them in Li Chuan's small courtyard.

When the first wooden box was opened, what greeted his eyes was a pen, ink, paper, inkstone, pen holder, brush wash, brush holder, inkstone drop, inkstone grid, and inkstone box.

Other than the tip of the brush, the tribute paper, and the ink, the other furniture in the study was made of a whole set of white marble.

Li Chuan sat in front of the table and carefully sized up the entire set of study furniture.

As an archaeology major, he knew the value of this set of study equipment.

Not to mention that these white marbles would be priceless more than a thousand years later, they would also be antiques in this Martial Virtue Era.

"As expected of the Act Tough King, he's so generous.”Li Chuan looked at the white marble that seemed to be flickering with a faint white light and sighed from the bottom of his heart.

As for the second box, there were hand-copied scriptures and history books neatly placed inside. Not only did they cover the later Four Books and Five Classics, but there were also as many as three sets.

Li Chuan was well aware of the value of these books. Just the Four Books and Five Classics alone recorded in detail the history of China's early intellectual and cultural development. It contained historical information on politics, military affairs, diplomacy, culture, and other aspects. It also recorded the important thoughts of Confucius, Mencius, and other ideologists.

As for a thousand years later, these precious books had already gone through countless wars. Because of the editing or the broken chapters, they had become completely unrecognizable.

"It's a rare opportunity to witness the brilliant Chinese culture.”Li Chuan looked at the dozens of books in front of him and thought to himself.

History was very fascinating, and the pearl in the river of time was fascinating.

Not long after, the two princesses dressed in green lapels and crowned heads carefully walked in front of Li Chuan.

"Brother, Mother asked me and Sister An Lan to learn to read and write from you.”The young princess smiled.

"Alright then, let's begin.”Li Chuan nodded and came back to his senses. He took out the Book of Rites for the two of them and taught them to turn to the article on University.

The Great Learning came from the 42nd chapter of the Book of Rites. It was a prose that discussed the Confucian ideology of self-cultivation, governing the country, and leveling the world. Because of the efforts of later writers Han Yu and Zhu Xi, it became the first of the four books in the Song Dynasty.

"The path of a university lies in showing one's virtue, in being close to the people, and in achieving perfection.”

" Knowing to stop, then there will be stability. After stability, there will be tranquility. After tranquility, there will be peace. After peace, there will be consideration. After consideration, there will be gains.”

“......”

Early in the morning, in Li Chuan's small courtyard, the sound of reading rang out.

Li Chuan was not in a hurry to explain the meaning of the book to the two princesses. Instead, he began to talk about the origin of Confucianism.

From the unification of China in the Zhou Dynasty to the hundreds of schools of thought in the pre-Qin period, from Confucius to the seventy-two wise men of Confucianism, from Jixia Academy in the Warring States Period to the debate of a hundred schools of thought, from the burning of books and burying of Confucianism by the Qin Emperor to the respect of Confucianism by the Han Emperor

During this period, the two princesses would ask questions from time to time, and Li Chuan would always answer them immediately. Moreover, he had so many stories to support him in the future, so he could occasionally make the two of them laugh non-stop.

Learning so happily made the two of them feel much better than Li Chengqian.

Finally, Li Chuan brought the two princesses to reread the Book of Rites: University. After a short break, he began to teach them how to write.

The First Commandery Princess, Li Anlan, seemed to have some basic knowledge. Li Chuan only taught her a few simple words and she was able to write independently.

On the other hand, even though Li Chuan was teaching her step by step, it was still difficult for the young princess, Li Lizhi, to write regular script.

Fortunately, the young princess was very serious when she was studying, so Li Chuan was relieved.

Reading and writing naturally required gradual progress. It was not something that could be learned overnight. Fortunately, Li Chuan was quite patient.

Two days later, the young princess's regular script improved slightly. On the other hand, Li Anlan had already copied the entire " University " with neat and smooth strokes.

On a windy evening, the young princess put down her brush and said,"

"Brother, I don't want to write anymore."

"Alright, let's rest for a while." As Li Chuan spoke, he began to gently massage the young princess's wrist.

In Li Chuan's opinion, it was probably because she was too young. The young princess was still struggling to hold the brush, and her calligraphy practice had just begun.

He couldn't be in a hurry to complete the task and abuse child labor.

Just like that, the two of them sat there and watched Li Anlan copy University.

"The path of a university lies in showing one's virtue, in being close to the people, and in achieving perfection.”

" Knowing to stop, then there will be stability. After stability, there will be tranquility. After tranquility, there will be peace. After peace, there will be consideration. After consideration, there will be gains.”

“......”

The young princess sat next to Li Chuan and recited aloud.

At this moment, Li Er, who was walking in from outside the courtyard, heard the young princess reading and was stunned.

(,,,。。Those who like this book, I hope you can support me! It seemed that everyone was a little too quiet. When she saw that there were only a few cheers in the book review section, she felt miserable.)
