Li Shimin was slightly surprised. His father always put the overall situation first in his actions. Why is this happening today?
But after a little doubt, Li Shimin quickly understood and knew that his father had some objections to him.
After thinking about it, Li Shimin laughed: "Father, why are you so serious? It's rare for you to speak, how can you be disrespectful to me?"
Li Yuan was stunned. He didn't expect his son to agree so readily: "Is this a promise?"
"I agreed, how can I disobey my father's will?"
At this point, the tense atmosphere dissipated.
The father and son continued to eat, and the scene was very harmonious.
After Li Shimin had eaten, he said there was something else going on in the palace and left in a hurry.
After Li Shimin left, Li Yuan smiled and walked to the back hall of the palace, where Princess Runan was eavesdropping.
Seeing Li Yuan coming, Li Xiangnan's cheeks were slightly red and he was a little embarrassed.
Li Yuan tapped his granddaughter's nose and said with a smile, "Did you hear everything I just said?"
"heard it."
"Are you satisfied now?"
Li Xiangnan was shy and embarrassed: "Even if my father agrees, there will be other princesses who will marry the Turks. I'm afraid that this matter will fall on Changle, she is still young...I..."
"Everyone has his or her own destiny. As long as you live your life well in this world. Grandpa Huang is a veteran. He used to think too much and worry too much about others. In the end, no one ended up well. Since you have this opportunity , then you should hold it firmly in your hands. It is very rare for a royal child to have a companion that you truly like. You must cherish it and don't be so hesitant."
"Grandpa Huang taught you a lesson. Runan would like to thank Grandpa Huang for your success."
Li Yuan stroked his long beard and smiled happily: "Why are you being polite to Grandpa Huang? I just didn't expect things to go so smoothly. This matter is regarded as a favor from the emperor. It seems that I, the Supreme Emperor, are not just a decoration."
Li Xiangnan lost his worries and hugged Li Yuan's arm with a smile: "How could Grandpa Huang be a decoration? Grandpa Huang's words are imperial edicts, and even Father will not violate them."
Li Yuan laughed: "Hahaha..."
At this moment, Li Shimin was already on the car returning to the palace.
The group returned, and the accompanying father-in-law caught up and asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty, since Princess Runan wants to remarry, do we need to stop preparations for the marriage to a Turk?"
Li Shimin smiled: "Everything remains as usual... No, everything should be done quickly and urgently. Set the wedding date in three days."
"Still as usual? Three days later?" The father-in-law broke out in a sweat, wondering what was causing the emperor's trouble? This is too hasty, and didn’t you already promise the Emperor just now?
Li Shimin knew the concerns of the personal eunuch and whispered: "How can national affairs be changed due to the anger of one person? As for the Supreme Emperor, I don't want to refute his face, so I only agreed to make him happy. Since this matter has happened, you Princess Nan’s marriage should be carried out immediately! It cannot be delayed and unexpected changes occur. Only when the raw rice is cooked, can the Supreme Emperor accept the reality."
"..." The eunuch said nothing more and nodded to accept the order.
Li Shimin thought for a while and then added: "Princess Runan will be confined to the palace for three days. Do not tell her anything, and it is strictly forbidden to spread today's events outside. Anyone who leaks the news or causes trouble will be brought forward. Come and see me.”
…
In the early morning, students from Yongxing College started running as usual.
After the morning run, a series of chaotic sounds of horse hooves and wheels came from the street outside.
Someone went to look out of curiosity and found seven or eight carriages parked outside.
"What is this?" Changsun Huan asked Jia Ke curiously.
"Starting today, you will go to school outside the city."
"Going to school outside the city?"
After everyone heard this, they were all surprised.
"Why go to school outside the city?"
"Yes, are you going to collect the scenery?"
More than a dozen people gathered around, wrapping Jia Ke in the middle.
Mr. Gao outside shouted: "Be quiet! This is Mr. Yu's arrangement. In the next two months, you will learn farming in the fields outside the city."
"What?!"
Everyone exclaimed again.
"Learn to farm?! Are you asking us to become farmers? Why?"
"That's right! What kind of status do I have? How can I be associated with those cheap peasants? If word spreads about it, wouldn't it be a joke?"
"Not only is it a joke, but it also damages the family's face!
Everyone was complaining, feeling that something was strange, or that something was wrong.
Yu Qingqing grabbed the corner of Bai Song's clothes and shook it: "What is grandpa's intention this time? Can you see it?"
Bai Song thought for a while and said: "Handcrafts and Buddhism are things that children from various families would not be exposed to in ordinary times. The same goes for farming this time. It can be seen that Mr. Yu wants us to gain more knowledge and experience various professions and classes. The lives of ordinary people. With this experience, when you become an official in the court in the future, you will be able to consider the people of the world. Only by experiencing it deeply can you develop empathy. Scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, if I am not wrong, after this time of farming, Mr. Yu will still be Arrange for us to learn business."
"You guys can do it!" Mr. Gao walked up to Bai Song and patted him on the shoulder, "Mr. Yu carefully arranged it, knowing that once you leave the academy, you will never have the opportunity to come into contact with those low-level but more ordinary things. , so I want you to experience more different lives in the academy. You can see Mr. Yu’s intentions, you are really too smart! It doesn’t matter if you don’t become an official in the future, if a person like you becomes an official, he will definitely become a powerful minister .When the time comes, even my Gao family will have to come to curry favor with you."
"Sir, you are joking."
Mr. Gao smiled and shook his head, pointing to the sedan: "Why are you still standing there? Hurry up and pack your bags. You have to live in the fields for two consecutive months."
"Aren't you going back to the academy for two months?"
"Exactly!"
"What will happen to the Qingyuan Poetry Club in the future?"
"A car will pick you up on the day of the Qingyuan Poetry Festival."
Xie Yuan interrupted: "Sir, the Qingyuan Poetry Society is of great importance. What if our college does not perform well at the Poetry Society and is outperformed by other colleges?"
"That's right! I heard that other colleges have been preparing for the Qingyuan Poetry Festival for a month or two, but they are all here for us. It's only been two or three days, and we don't need any preparation at all?"
"What is the Qingyuan Poetry Club? It's just some flamboyant things, just a small way. You will not be sour literati in the future. You will have a bigger world and experience life to gain new insights. The Qingyuan Poetry Club only considers When it comes to the prince's face, if you can perform well, just let it happen."
After hearing this, everyone was proud.
Yes, other colleges care about the poetry festival, but our Yongxing College just does it casually.
Writing poems and lyrics is just trivial, there is no need to pursue perfection. The fifteen of them have not studied poetry for three consecutive months, but it does not mean that they do not know poetry.
Even without any preparation, the fifteen people were confident of giving a good lesson to the students from various colleges in the capital.
