The three princes who came were Li Er's eldest son, Li Cheng, his third son, Li Ke, and his fourth son, Li Yue.
As for the second brother, he died a long time ago.
The reason why only three people came was because among Li Er's sons, only the three of them were slightly older, all seven or eight years old.
For seven or eight years old, it was an age where people hated dogs. However, when Li Bawang saw the three of them, he could not help but frown.
The three of them were dressed in luxurious clothes and looked like young masters of aristocratic families. Their actions were well-behaved, as if they were bound.
After seeing Li Bawang, they bowed very respectfully and said,"Nephew greets Third Uncle."
Their behavior was very well-behaved, and there was even a timid look on their faces. After bowing, they stood at the side, as if waiting for Li Bawang to lecture them.
One had to know that the three little fellows were only seven or eight years old. In the modern world, they would have just entered the first grade of primary school, right?
From their eyes, he could see vigilance, loneliness, and a hint of precocity.
Other than the guards, there were also two old men who came with them.
After the three princes greeted Li Bawang, the two old men bowed.
" Greetings, Third Prince."
Li Bawang looked at the two old men and was a little confused. He did not know who they were, so he said,"May I know who you are?"
Vice General Wei arrived and introduced him to Li Bawang.
"San Lang, these two are the great scholars of the present age, Lu Deming and Kong Yingda.”
Hearing that it was these two, Li Bawang's eyes were also stunned. He straightened his body and bowed back.
He knew about these two great scholars. They were indeed the top scholars of the world. Even in the later generations, they were very famous.
"Please take a seat, old gentlemen. I am very casual here, so there is no need for this.”Li Bawang could also tell that Li Er's three sons were so well-behaved because of these two old men.
After Li Bawang finished speaking, he smiled and greeted the three little guys, telling them to relax and not be so reserved. His mentality seemed to be still in the modern world. He felt that children should not be so dull.
"Thank you, Your Highness. However, rules are rules. A prince should have the standards and bearing of a prince. Since the Crown Prince allowed the three princes to come to the manor to experience and receive the guidance of Your Highness, the three princes are not only His Highness 'nephews, but also his disciples.”Lu Deming said seriously.
Kong Yingda, who was standing at the side, did not say anything. Instead, she stared at the legendary Prince Li Bawang.
Li Bawang was a little speechless at Lu Deming's old-fashioned attitude. Is there a problem with me being closer to my nephew?
He knew a lot about Li Er's sons from the information he had. Although they had done a lot of bad things after they became adults and were all not easy to deal with, they were just a few little guys now.
Li Bawang was not interested in the way Li Er raised his sons. In the later generations, there were many discussions about why Li Er's sons were such bastards.
There were serious problems with the teachings of the great scholar, the strict requirements he had for his sons, and his favoritism. This was also why these sons either acted recklessly or rebelled to seize the throne. In the end, none of them had a good ending.
It was all because Li Er's training was very problematic. Since Li Bawang had promised to teach these little guys, he definitely couldn't let them go down the old path.
Therefore, he didn't think much of Lu Deming's rigid and strict attitude. He even put away the trace of admiration he had just now.
What great scholar? He was just a rotten scholar. Perhaps he had extraordinary achievements in Confucianism and even passed down to later generations, but so what? There must have been a lot of criticism against them in the future, right?
" Second Brother asked me to teach these little guys. Don't tell me you two don't agree? You think I can't teach them, so you two are here to supervise," Li Bawang said calmly.
"I wouldn't dare." Kong Yingda bowed first.
However, Lu Deming was indeed like that. He did not seem to bow down to the rich and powerful.
Li Bawang laughed. It seemed that Kong Yingda, the great scholar, wasn't that old-fashioned. As for Lu Deming, he couldn't be bothered with him. He didn't care about his arrogance.
"Let's go, we'll go ride horses with Third Uncle." Li Bawang stood up and called out to the three little fellows.
The series of conversation just now had already stunned the three little fellows. One had to know that even their father, Li Er, treated the two great scholars with great courtesy. How could he treat them like this?
The three little fellows 'eyes were filled with stars of admiration.
When Li Bawang called them out to ride horses, his eyes became even more lively, as if he was eager to give it a try.
" Your Highness!" Lu Deming was about to say something, but Deputy General Wei stopped him.
He didn't seem to respect these two great scholars as much as before. It seemed that Li Bawang would do whatever he wanted.
Kong Yingda also stopped Lu Deming, who was about to continue speaking.
When he walked out, Li Bawang called out to the three little fellows beside him and took the opportunity to see their performance.
As for Li Cheng, this little fellow seemed to have been deeply 'poisoned' by these great scholars and his father. Although he had let go a little, he had never completely let go of his wariness. His behavior was even more well-behaved, and he had completely lost the temperament of a child.
Li Ke was a little better than Li Cheng. He also followed the rules and did not dare to go beyond them. However, the liveliness in his eyes revealed a lot of his childlike nature.
The smartest and most open-minded person was the fourth brother, Li Yue. This little guy was indeed very intelligent. Later records said that he was talented and intelligent since he was young.
This little guy was also a little cunning. He was very good at following the adults 'thoughts and quickly leaned against Li Bawang to act cute.
"Third Uncle, are we really going horseback riding? I've never ridden a horse before. Can Third Uncle teach the green sparrow?”
If Li Bawang hadn't read the information and didn't know the in-depth analysis of Li Yue's sons from his senior brother, he would probably like Li Yue very much.
However, he knew that not only did these brats of the Li Imperial Family mature early, but they were also not easy to deal with.
Li Yue, this kid, knew how to ingratiate himself at such a young age. No wonder he could get Li Er's favor and even compete with Li Cheng.# Date:08 24 2019 4:30PM
