"Hahahaha!
Empress Zhangsun couldn't control her laughter after hearing her two daughters 'answers.
Second Emperor Li was furious!
Both of his daughters had betrayed him!
" Forget it, forget it." Second Emperor Li sighed." I'll make a trip myself!"”
"Since that kid hasn't left yet, I can ask about the follow-up arrangements for Tubo.”
Although the war with the Tibetans had yet to begin, the imperial court had already begun to discuss what would happen after victory.
After tasting the benefits of the Turkic steppe, everyone's first reaction was to continue using the same method of raising sheep!
However, after some research, he discovered that this method would not work!
Tubo was similar to the Great Tang. Farming was more developed than animal husbandry, and there was less grass to raise sheep.
There was nothing useful about the other animals, right?
The ministers discussed for a long time, but in the end, they could not come up with any good ideas.
That place was far too remote, and the environment was quite harsh compared to the Great Tang.
If they sent a large number of people to take over, it would be a waste of effort.
However, if he did not care, it would not be long before the Tubo people would rise again.
Helplessly, Second Emperor Li, Fang Xuanling, and Du Ruhui discussed it and decided to put this matter aside for the time being and find an opportunity to ask Li Yun if he had any other good ideas.
He originally wanted to wait until the war was over, but now he couldn't drag it out. If he didn't ask, it would be too late when Li Yun went to Yuhang!
After Second Emperor Li finished speaking, he saw his two daughters looking at him with eager eyes and said unhappily,
"Don't look at me, I won't bring you guys this time!”
......
He left immediately. That afternoon, Li Er sat on the carriage to Lantian County.
Unlike before, there was another person with him this time!
This person was the Duke of Zheng, Wei Zheng!
The reason why Second Emperor Li had brought him along this time was purely because he was afraid of him!
Although he had shocked Wei Zheng in the royal court these few times, this did not stop Wei Zheng from continuing to pick on him!
Wei Zheng somehow found out that His Majesty had been out of the palace recently. After checking the daily life note, he directly found the bedroom of His Majesty Li Er!
In his words," It's absurd that the dignified ruler of a country left the palace five or six times in a short three months!”
Because of this, he even threatened to record this matter in the historical records, letting the world know that Second Emperor Li was not good at government affairs and often went out of the palace to seek pleasure.
Second Emperor Li tried his best to explain, but the old man was very stubborn and did not listen at all!
What otherworldly expert, living in seclusion in the countryside? It was simply ridiculous!
He even suspected that the Emperor was like some absurd emperor, infatuated with the training workshop outside the palace!
In the end, he had no choice but to take Li Er with him next time.
Hence, today's schedule was set.
The four of them were dressed in casual clothes and sat in the swaying carriage.
"When we get there, no matter what Li Yun says, you are not allowed to make a sound. You are only allowed to listen with your ears, understand?”Second Emperor Li instructed.
"I understand. Your Majesty has already said it many times, so there's no need to repeat it.”Wei Zheng replied.
"Your identity is the manager of my Li family. When the time comes, you have to call me master. Don't expose yourself!”Second Emperor Li continued to exhort.
He was really a little worried that Wei Zheng would not be able to hold back and take Li Yun down on the spot when he heard Li Yun say something disgraceful.
This stubborn old man would definitely do it!
Only after Wei Zheng's repeated assurance did Emperor Li Er nod his head.
After an hour, the carriage arrived at Lantian County.
They stopped at the entrance of Li Village, and the four of them got out of the car and walked in.
Not long after, Wei Zheng was already shocked!
There were many villagers coming and going in this village. After some observation, Wei Zheng realized that all the people here had rosy faces, were in high spirits, and were smiling!
It seemed that they were living better than most of the people in Chang 'an!
The streets of the manor were spotless, and the children were actually running around with books in their hands!
Seeing this scene, Wei Zheng's eyeballs almost fell out!
How could a child in a remote village know how to read?
There were also many workshops that were emitting white smoke, and many people were busy inside.
At this moment, Wei Zheng had already believed His Majesty's words!
This place was indeed a paradise!
"Doll, can you read?" Wei Zheng walked forward and said to the child in front of him.
"I can read two hundred words!" The little boy replied proudly.
"To be able to read more than two hundred words at such a young age, not bad.”Wei Zheng stroked his beard and smiled. Then, he asked,
"What book is this? Can you read it to him?"
"No problem!"
The little boy shook his head and said,
"At the beginning of life, humans are naturally good. Their natures are similar, but their habits are far apart."
"If you don't teach, your nature will change. The way of teaching is to specialize."
This was naturally Li Yun's masterpiece!
Ever since the success of the new bamboo paper, Li Yun had edited the last part of the Three Character Classic and printed it into a book to distribute to the villagers.
In his words, the Li family did not allow any illiterates!
Although the villagers of Li Village didn't quite understand what this meant, out of trust in their young master, they urged their children to study every day.
As the little boy read, the four people who were originally smiling froze!
After he finished reading, the few of them looked at each other, their hearts filled with doubt!
"Not bad. You have a bright future at such a young age.”Fang Xuanling smiled and asked," Where did you get this book?”
"Young Master gave it to me!" The little boy was a little embarrassed by the praise. After saying that, he ran away.
"Keming, Xuancheng, have you seen this article before?”Fang Xuanling asked.
The two of them shook their heads at the same time.
Du Ruhui said," This article is very eloquent. Although the writing is simple, the logic contained in it is quite deep!”
"It is very suitable to be used as a book of enlightenment for children. Forgive me for my shallow knowledge and have never seen it before.”
Wei Zheng also said," It's everyone's work to simplify things into complicated ones!”
"Why have I never heard of such a classic?”
" Alright, there's no need to guess." Second Emperor Li waved his hand and said," This is obviously the work of that kid Li Yun!"”
Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling reacted and nodded with a bitter smile.
"Your Majesty, isn't that young man only fifteen or sixteen years old?”Wei Zheng said in shock.
He had already believed 70% of what the Emperor, an expert, had said, but considering the age of the expert, he still did not believe it.
"So what if he's fifteen or sixteen years old?" Second Emperor Li said," Have you seen the new words I added in the royal study?”
"Of course I have. Not only is his calligraphy unique, but his style is so grand and heroic that it makes me blush!”Wei Zheng praised.
"That word was written by Li Yun. I saw him write it with my own eyes!”Second Emperor Li said casually.
"This." Wei Zheng was shocked by these words!
A classic poem that could be passed down for thousands of years was actually written by a 15 or 16-year-old youth?
For a moment, his mind was in a mess.
According to His Majesty, this person not only knew how to farm, but he could also improve his tools. He invented the salt-making method and was proficient in making money and strategy.
But now, he had to add on an extremely deep knowledge foundation!
Was there really such an omniscient person in the world?
Wei Zheng secretly exclaimed in his heart. Although he had not met Li Yun, he already had 30% respect for him!
"Let's go. You'll know when you see him later!”Li Er said.
Then, he brought a few people and went straight to Li Yun's house.
......
In the courtyard.
"Young Master, the things you mentioned have been made. I asked Old Chen and the others to transport them over.”
"Is it finally done? Let's go and take a look!"
Li Yun waved his hand and brought Old Huang to the courtyard.
"Young Master, we don't understand the blueprints you gave us.”When Elder Chen saw Li Yun come out, he said with a frown,
"This damn carriage is completely different from the one I've seen the officials sit in before!”
"Stupid!" Li Yun reprimanded," Isn't it already drawn on the map? Just pack them up according to the order!"
After saying that, he personally instructed Old Chen and the others to start assembling.
Halfway through, Li Er and the others arrived.
"Young man, I've come to disturb you again!”Second Emperor Li smiled and said," What are you busy with?”
" Old Li," Li Yun glanced at him." You guys go in and sit for a while. I'll call you when I'm done!"”
"It's fine. You do your thing. I'll just stay here and look at this new thing.”
After saying that, Second Emperor Li and the others stood to the side and watched them work.
"Alright, you guys can do whatever you want." Li Yun said without looking back.
This was the carriage that he had asked the craftsmen in the manor to build.
The main purpose of creating this thing was to reduce his suffering when he went south.
Li Yun had already asked around. It would take at least two months to travel from Chang 'an to Yuhang.
The road conditions were not good at this time, and the carriage was made of hard wood wheels. Wouldn't their bodies fall apart along the way?
Hence, there was this pile of components in front of him!
Due to his poor ironmaking skills, it took a lot of effort to make the spring. The rest was not difficult.
Soon, a tall and spacious carriage was assembled.
"Wait for me for a while. I'll go test this new car!”Li Yun called out and got into the carriage.
"I think your carriage is spacious enough. Let me experience it too.”Second Emperor Li hurriedly said.
Then, without waiting for Li Yun's reply, he got into the car with Wei Zheng and the other two.
Li Yun's products must be of high quality!
Although this carriage was only slightly larger, there was nothing special about it. However, Second Emperor Li knew that something that Li Yun valued so much was no ordinary item!
"That's good. The more people there are, the heavier it will be. Let's see how the shock absorption effect is.”
"Old Yellow, let's go!" Li Yun said.
Two tall horses were led over and slowly set off.
