I have to say that it is really surprising that a little girl can say these words at such a young age. Even Xu Fenglei was a little surprised.
Is there any explanation for the child born to Li Shimin and his eldest grandson Wugu?
Are they all so talented? !
But the more talented and intelligent she is, the more sad it is to think that she will die in her 20s.
Maybe... there is a way to change it?
In Xu Fenglei's mind, he had already begun to plan for Li Lizhi's future, and even had the idea of asking her to become a disciple of Sun Simiao and learn how to maintain good health...
"Li Zhi has grown up, and she can have such insights."
Changsun Wugao smiled from ear to ear and said,
"Each one of them, Zhenqian, Zhending, Zhenyi, Zhenyi, are all good words with excellent meanings!"
"Your Majesty has a choice."
Seeing that her children were all excellent and well-spoken, which aroused the surprise of all the ministers, she felt twice as happy!
At the same time, the eyes he looked at Xu Fenglei became more and more respectful.
Now, she is more deeply aware of how important it is for children to have a good teacher!
If another heir is born in the future, he must be coached by Xu Fenglei!
"yes……"
Li Shimin stroked his beard and smiled,
"All the princes and princesses are talented in literature, so I don't know what to choose."
"From a moral point of view, Zhen Qian and Zhen Yi are both good, but I prefer Qing Que's Zhen Ding and Li Zhi's Zhen Yi. It feels like one person shoulders the fate of all the people in the world."
"But...governing a country is not just about nourishing the people. If you are a wise king, you should have a broader vision and overall view. Only in this way can you achieve higher political achievements."
"Although Wen Jing is a wise king, I have more ambitions than that; although the Han Dynasty is strong, I do not want to resort to military violence."
"The path I want to take is not the path they have walked."
Although the tone of these words was light, it was quite a bit of a look at the past and a domineering look on the world!
All I have to say is "The rule of Wen and Jing was slightly inferior to literary talent; Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was slightly less elegant"!
"It seems that you have not been chosen by your father, and you have not answered what your master has in mind."
Xu Fenglei looked at the disciples and said with a smile,
"The answers are all good. They are excellent, but not the best."
"There is only one last one left... Qingquan."
He turned his gaze to Li Qingquan, nodded and said:
"Tell me your opinion!"
All the eyes of the audience were focused on the eldest daughter of the emperor.
Li Qingquan seemed to have never experienced this feeling of being the focus of the audience. For a moment, he was short of breath and at a loss.
Li Lizhi, who was still a little discouraged, immediately raised her head and raised her fist towards her sister.
"Sister, come on! You are the best!"
She knew that her eldest sister had a gentle and quiet temperament and was not used to such a scene, so she decisively cheered her up!
"Well...my younger brothers and sisters are leading the way, and as the eldest sister, I can't hold back..."
Li Qingquan muttered something in his mouth, then breathed out gently, and met Xu Fenglei's expectant eyes, his expression became firm.
Just listen to her slowly saying:
"The answer given by the students is - Zhenguan."
Zhenguan!
Xu Fenglei's mind moved and his head nodded subconsciously.
Li Shimin raised his eyebrows, as if he had caught something invisible!
At this moment, all the ministers looked serious and acted like they were all ears.
From the current point of view, no matter which prince or princess they are, they should not be underestimated. Although they are young, their Yi learning skills are already somewhat profound, and they have something worthy of learning from old men like me!
"Tell me why you chose Guanzi."
Xu Fenglei looked calm and asked.
"yes."
Li Qingquan slightly cupped his hands and said softly,
"The observer is the observer of the wind and the earth. It talks about the way of observing the universe, that is to say, seeing everything as a whole."
"Just like people's livelihood is not just people's livelihood, but is closely related to many things, interconnected with each other, and affects the whole body. Therefore, when the emperor wants to issue a decree, he must not consider one place individually, but should consider it holistically and comprehensively. Only after investigation can we make a decision, and the decision made at this moment is mature and can truly benefit the world. This may be what my father said - a broad vision and an overall view."
When Li Shimin heard this, his eyebrows curved.
He likes the word "Zhenguan" and also likes Li Qingquan's explanation at this moment.
It coincides with what he had in mind!
"Master has said that as a politician, you should patrol the four corners of the country to observe the folk customs, understand the folk customs and then govern."
Li Qingquan continued to explain,
"See luxury and be frugal."
“See evil and correct it.”
"When a king practices Taoism, he means to read the world and then know his own gains and losses. Gains and losses are in one mind, and how to govern will also be in one mind."
"The so-called Zhenguan means that the emperor perseveres in inspecting the world and listens to the voices of the people. In the words of Master, he means not being separated from the masses!"
"Use 'Zhenguan' to improve ourselves and benefit the people. Instead of blindly and self-righteous self-cultivation and governing the country, it is just a fantasy."
Snapped! Snapped! Snapped!
"Good, what a Zhenguan!"
Xu Fenglei clapped his hands and praised sincerely,
"It's even better than Zhending, Zhenyi, and Zhenyi!"
"Only by observing the situation can we know the gains and losses, formulate solid policies, truly treat the people well, and work together for the benefit of everyone!"
"Zhenguan is also the best answer in my heart, the best year name! I thought that none of you could answer it, but now it seems... I'm a teacher who has seen Qingquan!"
When Li Qingquan heard his unstinting praise, his face showed an expression of unbelievable surprise.
She really didn't expect that her answer would be praised so highly by her master! I was so excited that I didn’t know where to put my hands!
"Master, I, I..."
Her face turned red and she stuttered incoherently,
"Your Majesty, I agree to use Zhenguan as the reign name. In addition to the connotations mentioned by Qingquan, there is another meaning."
Xu Fenglei raised his hands towards Li Shimin and said seriously,
"Yi said: The way of the heaven and the earth is the one who is chaste and wise; the way of the sun and the moon is the one who is chaste and bright; the movement of the world is the one who is chaste."
"The word Zhenguan here also means to show the world the right way."
"Since the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, there have been hundreds of years of strife in the world, which can be described as turmoil and darkness. Now that we, the Tang Dynasty, have established the world, and everything is in ruins, it is time to bring order to the chaos, show the world a glorious and righteous way, and give the people a clean and bright world!"
Li Shimin: "!!!"
Ministers: "!!!"
His words made them feel excited!
The word Zhenguan is exactly what these idealists are pursuing!
"good!"
Li Shimin's eyes flickered and his heart was filled with excitement.
He took a deep breath and said:
"The word Zhenguan is very close to my heart! Look around the world, observe the people's livelihood, and then show the world the right way!"
