After raising his hand, he put it down again. He learned this from going to Shanghe Village to watch Tang Ping teach students. At first, he just thought it was interesting, but when he wanted to ask a question, he raised it unconsciously.
"What's wrong?" Li Shimin looked at Li Yuanji.
"You don't go to Shanghe Village very often. You don't know that our great nephew..."
Li Yuanji hesitated for a moment, and then organized his words carefully before saying: "In his own words, he is just a salty fish! He actually just wants to lie down!"
"Salted fish? Lie down?"
Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin were a little confused. Of course they knew about salted fish. A large part of the seafood used to trade tung oil between the East Yue Kingdom and Datang was salted fish, but what does this have to do with Tang Ping?
And what about lying flat? sleep?
"It just... means that he doesn't need to stand if he can sit, and he should sit if he can lie down."
Well, after saying this, the two of them understood. To put it bluntly, this is laziness!
If it were anyone else, Li Shimin would probably be furious!
After all, Tang Ping still holds the position of Honglu Temple. After all, he is still an official of the Tang Dynasty. If Li Shimin finds out that other officials are so lazy, they will at least be dismissed.
But because it was Tang Ping, Li Shimin was only angry and funny.
But when I think about my second sister, I have no anger at all.
"So, do you think he would rather stay in Shanghe Village?"
"Isn't that right?" Li Yuanji nodded: "It's not like you don't know what kind of life he lives. According to Lu Yi, you will never see him get up before nine or ten in the morning."
"Every day, Xiaoluo gives him a lot of face wash at seven o'clock. When it's cool, he changes it again. He only gets up after three or four washes!"
"Every day after lunch, he has to sleep for an hour or two. I don't know why he is so sleepy. You said, this is it. If you ask him to come to the court and do some urination, will he be able to bear it?"
"I went to Shanghe Village the day before yesterday... No, I passed by Shanghe Village and went to sit with him. He even asked me vaguely how I could resign. I guess it was the position in Honglu Temple that you gave him now. He I don’t want them anymore!”
Li Shimin and Li Jiancheng looked at each other, then glared at Li Yuanji: "Why are you eating alone again?"
"That's right, can't you call us up?"
"I..." Li Yuanji was angry: "Aren't we talking about business now?"
"Okay!" Li Shimin nodded: "Since Tang Ping doesn't want to, I think it's better to forget it."
"Then there will be no reward?" Li Jiancheng quit: "Not to mention the credit this time, the situation was unclear at the time, and it was not easy to travel further east, and they still used their own fairy called a pickup truck. I've heard that that thing drinks a lot of oil."
"Yes, yes, what kind of diesel is that? We in the Tang Dynasty can't buy it anyway."
"When did I say no reward? I just said that the issue of the official appointment would be put aside for the time being!"
"I don't think so!" Li Jiancheng's eyes suddenly lit up and he asked, "Do you know those little guys Cheng Chumo, Du He and Li Zhen?"
"What's wrong with them?" Who doesn't know about these brothers? They are inseparable and do a lot of ridiculous things in Chang'an.
"These brothers have made great progress in their studies recently!" Li Jiancheng is also in charge of the Tang Dynasty Official School, so he knows this best.
"How many of them are there? Are their studies progressing?" Li Shimin and Li Yuanji both didn't believe it.
"Indeed, I heard that they have been in Shanghe Village every day recently. They first studied with Tang Ping's apprentice Li Bai for an hour, and then worked in Shanghe Village."
"So what does eldest brother mean?"
"I think, look at the people in our family, some of them are not as good as Cheng Chumo and the others. And if you think about it, there are hills and valleys in Tangping. Since herding a sheep is herding, then isn't it also true that herding a group of sheep is herding? Are you in a hurry?"
"Wonderful!" Li Shimin slapped the table: "I have thought about this a long time ago, but I didn't expect that my eldest brother would also think of it."
He said with some excitement: "What Tang Ping learned is quite different from what we in Datang teach now. How about we set up a new school and let Tang Ping be the leader?"
"This is good, this is good! Send my Chengye, Chengluan and Chengzhai to me!"
Li Jiancheng said with some regret: "It's a pity that Chengzong and Chengdao are a bit old, but it would be good to send Chengde and Chengxun to study."
The three brothers began to discuss excitedly again. After all, the education of the next generation has always been a difficult problem from ancient times to the present, from the royal family to the common people.
In their opinion, although many of the things Tang Ping learned were different from those of the Tang Dynasty, they were very practical. For example, the pinyin literacy method he invented has now been promoted in various Mongolian schools in various states and counties in the Tang Dynasty, and the literacy speed of Mongolian children has been greatly improved. .
In addition, the Arabic numerals and calculation methods invented by Tang Ping also greatly improved the calculation and statistics speed of various departments in the Tang Dynasty. Now it is also beginning to be promoted to the private sector.
In addition, Tang Ping is obviously not the kind of person who is self-conscious and is very willing to teach what he has learned.
So after much deliberation, we decided to build a new official school in Shanghe Village and let him be the director. This would not only give him a promotion, but also satisfy his "salted fish" temperament. Send me some very useful things so that I can learn something useful.
Isn’t it a natural thing for a cousin to educate his cousin?
"Okay, then I'll go to Shanghe Village to talk to Tang Ping first!" Li Yuanji stood up and was about to run out! It just so happened that I ate too much in the palace at noon today, so I went to Shanghe Village to make up for it.
"Sanhu, wait for me, I'll go with you!"
Li Shimin looked at his eldest brother and his third brother who hurried out, and then at the memorials piled high on his desk. He could only shake his head and sit back.
The two arrived at Shanghe Village and told Tang Ping about the matter. Unexpectedly, Tang Ping agreed directly.
It is true that he wants to be a salted fish, but after this trip to East Vietnam, he also really wants to do something for the current Tang Dynasty.
If you can impart some of the knowledge and ideas you brought from modern times to the people of this era, it will make more sense for them to change the world.
So the next day at court, Qin King Li Jiancheng, who was in charge of official education, wrote a letter proposing the establishment of a new academy, with Tang Ping, the son of Wannian County, as its director.
"I feel something is wrong!"
As soon as Li Jiancheng finished speaking, veteran Yu Shinan stood up and said: "How can the matter of culture and education be such a trivial matter? There are already too many official scholars in Chang'an, so why should we establish a new official school?"
Although Li Jiancheng is in charge of the official school, the current head of the official school in Chang'an is indeed an old man.
Even Li Jiancheng respected Yu Shinan very much. He bowed slightly and said, "Mr. Yu, this new official school does not plan to recruit teachers for the time being."
"Don't plan to recruit teachers?" Yu Shinan was stunned.
