It was not difficult to learn calligraphy. As long as they received professional guidance and were willing to put in effort, ordinary people could also write well.

Of course, it was one thing to have a good look, but it was another thing to have his own charm between the lines.

From that day on, Li Anlan and Li Lizhi became especially diligent and attentive.

Li Chuan guessed that it was because Li Er had given a high evaluation of his calligraphy.

In the blink of an eye, three days had passed. Li Anlan's regular script was already decent and he could complete the homework of copying the entire " University " independently.

Compared to Li Anlan, who already had some foundation, the young princess's improvement was slightly inferior. Fortunately, she could write and recognize hundreds of words in just a few days.

Considering that she had only been here for a short period of time, the talent she had shown had at least received Li Chuan's recognition.

On this day, the two princesses 'calligraphy practice time ended. During their break, Li Chuan told them the story of the Big Bad Wolf and the Little White Rabbit.

Just as the two of them were engrossed in listening, two men entered the courtyard side by side.

These two men were both dressed in luxurious clothes, but one was short and one was tall, one was fat and one was thin. They looked to be above 30 years old.

However, even after Li Chuan finished his fairy tale, the two of them still stood patiently by the door and did not disturb him.

To a certain extent, it also reflected Li Chuan's status in King Qin's residence.

"I didn't know that the two distinguished guests had come.”Not long after, Li Chuan had just finished his story. He stood up and cupped his hands.

Since these two people could enter the Imperial Residence, their identities were naturally extraordinary. Seeing the short figure of the person on the left, he could roughly guess his identity. He was indeed either noble or noble.

At this moment, the young princess turned around and saw the two of them. She immediately ran over happily and muttered,"

"Uncle is here, uncle is here."

Upon hearing these two titles, Li Chuan confirmed it.

The short middle-aged man was indeed the princess consort's elder brother, Li Er's best friend, Zhangsun Wuji, who had followed Li Er to the north and south.

He was a man of both literary and martial arts. He had made great contributions to the Great Tang and was one of the masterminds behind the coup of Xuanwu Sect. Later, he became a prime minister and wielded great power.

He was ranked first among the twenty-four meritorious officials of Lingyan Pavilion, and was also Li Er's most trusted subordinate.

As for the person beside Zhangsun Wuji, who was addressed as 'uncle' by the young princess, his identity was also obvious.

This person was tall and straight, and his facial features were similar to Li Er's. He was the great-grandson of Li Hu, one of the eight pillar countries of the Northern Zhou Dynasty.

Li Er's cousin, Li Xiaogong, was ranked second among the 24 meritorious officials of Lingyan Pavilion. He had a lot of military achievements in his life and had considerable military wisdom.

Of course, in Li Chuan's opinion, such a founding hero was able to live out his old age in peace. How could his wisdom be limited to military wisdom?

Soon, Zhangsun Wuji carried the young princess while Li Xiaogong held Li Anlan's hand. The four of them walked toward Li Chuan, who was beside the stone table.

"I'm Zhangsun Wuji. I heard that Your Highness has saved your life. I'm here today to express my gratitude.”Zhangsun Wuji said as he put down the young princess on his back and bowed heavily to Li Chuan.

At the same time, Li Xiaogong bowed deeply and said sincerely,

"I am the governor of Jinzhou, Li Xiaogong. Young Master Li Chuan saved my brother and saved the entire Great Tang.”

Li Chuan couldn't help but feel a little pleased to see two of the founding fathers of the Great Tang treat him as an object of worship. However, he still smiled modestly and said,

"Milords, your words are too serious. It was only a coincidence that I saved Your Highness that day. The two of you are the heroes of the Great Tang.”

As they chatted, Zhangsun Wuji picked up the tribute paper on the stone table and deliberately asked,"

"Yo, whose handwriting is this? There is no lack of dignified and elegant, and the strength of the pen can be seen in the vertical and horizontal.”

"Uncle, Lizhi wrote this.”the young princess replied shyly.

"Lizhi actually wrote it?" Zhangsun Wuji smiled." Lizhi is really good at writing. How many days have you been learning how to write?"”

"Three days." The young princess stretched out four fingers and asked in confusion,"

"It seems like four days."

" Hahaha…" Zhangsun Wuji laughed when he saw her pretty and lively appearance. Then, he thought of something and suddenly stopped."Only four days?"

"Yeah, big brother only taught me for four days.”the young princess said with a smile.

"I only taught Lizhi for a few days, but she managed to write the first three parts of 'The University'. I admire your talent.”

"No, no, this is all because the young princess is talented and learns quickly.”Li Chuan said modestly.

"Teacher is too humble. Teacher is definitely a great teacher of his generation.”Li Xiaogong said.

"Brother taught her well, and Lizhi learned well.”The young princess looked up and smiled brightly.

"Haha, right, right." Zhangsun Wuji and Li Xiaogong could only agree with a smile.

Next, the two young princesses practiced calligraphy at the side, and the three of them began to chat.

The three of them were talking about the past events of the Wei, Jin, and Southern and Northern Dynasties.

From the Battle of Fei River to the rule of Yuanjia, from the chaotic war in the Central Plains to the southward crossing of Yi Guan, from Emperor Tuoba entering the Central Plains to Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty promoting the Hanization of Xianbei, the Sui Dynasty was finally unified and its national strength strengthened.

Zhangsun Wuji's understanding of Nanbei Chao and Li Xiaogong's deep analysis of military battles made Li Chuan sigh.

It made sense. The historical materials of the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties had become extremely rare after more than a thousand years.

It was Li Chuan's first time hearing many interesting stories about Nan Bei Chao.

Of course, when it came to the specific events of the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, their influence and significance to future generations, Li Chuan frequently threw out "brilliant opinions", causing Zhangsun Wuji and Li Xiaogong to repeatedly praise him.

In fact, this wasn't a brilliant idea. It was just high school knowledge from more than a thousand years later.

To be honest, Li Chuan didn't want to act tough at this time. He just enjoyed the atmosphere of laughing and talking about the past and the present with the ancients.

For a history student like him, this was a very precious experience.

And the chat was not over yet.

At this moment, Zhangsun Wuji slapped his thigh and said excitedly,"

"We were chatting happily and forgot to bring in the gift we prepared earlier.”
