Li Zhi explained: "You will understand in the future."
Li Rubi said: "Lishan disciples are indeed unpredictable. I admire you."
It was not until evening that Li Zhi walked out of the wine shop. After saying goodbye to everyone, he wanted to go somewhere else.
But as soon as she went out, she ran into Miss Gongsun. She was holding a sword in her arms, and there were two rows of guards beside her, more than ten people.
With anger in her eyes, she said: "His Royal Highness, Prince Jin, is leaving the palace. How could he not inform the maid and teach her how to explain to the queen?"
Li Zhi scratched the back of his head and smiled awkwardly, "I was negligent."
"His Royal Highness the King of Jin has lived in Lishan for a long time and does not know the rules in the palace. I will not care about it this time. If there is another time, I will..."
She thought for a while, and it seemed that she could not threaten Prince Jin, so she bowed her head and remained silent.
Li Zhi walked to Zhuque Street, and these guards followed him.
The young Gongsun followed King Jin with his sword in his arms.
In fact, before leaving the mountain this time, my brother-in-law also told me something. He walked from Zhuque Street to Jingzhao Mansion, which was the official office of Chang'an Order Pei Xingjian.
Li Zhi stepped in and heard the noise in the government office.
Niu Chao and a group of officials were playing hut. When they saw the person coming, they were startled. It was a young man.
Next to the young man was a female doll. This female doll was wearing a palace maid's skirt. She held a sword in her arms and looked a little fierce.
"This is His Royal Highness Prince Jin, why don't you be polite?"
When Niu Chao saw the group of guards, it was the Yulin Guards in the palace, he quickly bowed and lowered his head.
Li Zhi waved his hand and said: "No need to be polite, I am here to see Pei Fuyin, you go on and have fun!"
Just as he was saying this, Pei Xingjian walked out of the main hall and saluted, "I have seen His Highness the King of Jin, and I am a little disappointed to welcome him from afar."
Li Zhi also saluted and said: "When you came to see my brother-in-law, I took a look at you from a distance and admired you very much."
Pei Xingjian did not dare to lose his etiquette and said: "His Royal Highness the King of Jin enters the hall to reminisce about the past."
"Um."
Li Zhi followed suit, and Miss Gongsun stood guard outside the hall with her guards.
Niu Chao whispered to the officials here, "Our Pei Fuyin is a disciple of Lishan, and His Royal Highness King Jin is also a disciple of Lishan. Are they brothers in the same sect?"
"That's His Royal Highness Prince Jin, how dare you call me brother."
When the young lady Gongsun heard this, she glared at them, and these young officials kept silent and did not dare to discuss anything.
This is the Yulin Guards, the Beiya Forbidden Army! How dare you provoke the prince who is guarded by the Forbidden Army? Not even a little bit.
Compared with His Highness the King of Jin, who was Li Xian, the former chief secretary of Jingzhao Mansion?
In the main hall, the conversation had just begun.
"I wonder how the Marquis of Lishan County is doing lately?"
When he said these words, Pei Xingjian felt guilty, because he used the name Lishan Disciple to fool the relatives of the Pei family in Hedong, and now it is half true and half false.
The Jin King in front of him was a genuine disciple of Lishan, which was a bit embarrassing.
Li Zhi sat upright and said: "Brother-in-law has always been very good, but Lishan has encountered some difficulties in production recently."
"What's the dilemma?"
Pei Xingjian was nervous and asked subconsciously. After asking, he felt a little abrupt and asked, "Can Jingzhao Mansion help?"
Li Zhi waved his hand and said: "No need, I can't help."
Pei Xingjian put away his smile, thinking that regardless of the mystery of Lishan, in the eyes of King Jin, his Chang'an order was insignificant.
There is a hint of disappointment in my heart. This knowledge of the world and the earth of Hou Jingwei of Lishan County can change the world. What does a small Chang'an order mean?
"When I came to Chang'an this time, my brother-in-law asked me to hand it over to Pei Fuyin."
"Your Highness, Prince Jin, please speak."
Li Zhi took out a booklet and a small abacus. The abacus was very small, only the size of a palm. He also took out a magnifying glass from his arms. This magnifying glass was also very small, a little bigger than an ordinary man's thumb.
After the three items were placed, Li Zhi explained: "This is what my brother-in-law wants to give to Pei Fuyin."
Pei Xingjian hurriedly saluted, "I feel ashamed and dare not accept it. Besides, the original gold... the county prince didn't confiscate it, so how dare I accept it again."
Li Zhi nodded and said, "If you are a disciple of Lishan, you must have these three items."
Hearing this, Pei Xingjian quickly put away these three items.
"If it weren't for Pei Fuyin's appointment as the Protector, and it would be difficult for my brother-in-law to interact with people in the army, your disciple-brother-in-law would be very willing to accept him. What I want to tell Pei Fuyin this time is to increase the number of troops in Chang'an City. The county's labor distribution, during the slack agricultural period, advocates weaving in each county, and the details are written in the booklet."
Pei Fuyin bowed his hands and said cheerfully: "I'm going to arrange these things tomorrow. Please rest assured."
"Also." Li Zhi turned around and said: "Pei Fuyin, our Lishan mission has always been to move towards the masses. The masses and productivity are the foundation of our Lishan. Previously, Fuyin did a good job in repairing the fields. From now on, we will do things like this and take more care of the people in each county."
Li Zhi said with a smile on his face, "Now, we are colleagues."
The demeanor displayed by His Highness the Prince of Jin is not overbearing, nor is he so gentle.
Pei Xingjian hurriedly said: "Yes, colleague."
Nodding with satisfaction, Li Zhi led the people out of Jingzhao Mansion.
Pei Xingjian sat down without any effort, loosened the clothes around his neck, breathed out loudly, and took out the three items again.
It's really hard to be a disciple of Lishan. His Royal Highness, Prince Jin, has such aura at his age that he doesn't dare to refute even a single word.
It's not that King Jin's aura is so big, but the Lishan Mountain behind King Jin that makes people breathless.
Lishan is not a Tianjia, but it plays an important role in Guanzhong. His Majesty once said that Lishan is an important weapon of the country.
The land in Guanzhong seems to have two palms, one is Tiankhan, and the other is Lishan Mountain to the east of Chang'an City.
His Royal Highness Prince Jin returned to the palace. The return of a prince did not cause much commotion in the court.
The King of Jin also kept a low profile. He played with Di Renjie, Zhang Jianzhi and others on weekdays, and walked around Chang'an City in his spare time.
King Jin is a good boy, and everyone in the court and palace likes him.
This child would also take the initiative to ask about the folk customs in Chang'an City.
Li Shimin felt that such a prince could not sit idle all day, so he asked Li Zhi to go to Zhongshu Province to help Chu Suiliang.
Chu Suiliang was now in charge of the expenses of the court and had to take care of a prince, and felt even more exhausted both physically and mentally.
Leading the prince to do things was an opportunity that many courtiers did not get. Chu Sui's conscience felt hot with joy and torment at the same time.
Li Zhi got his father's wish and came to Zhongshu Province to help Chu Suiliang.
Miss Gongsun was still standing aside, always following His Highness King Jin.
Li Zhi originally wanted to do something bigger, but due to his father's instructions, he temporarily stopped his plan and helped Chu Suiliang handle the accounts of the court.
"His Royal Highness King Jin, it is best for your subordinates to handle these matters."
Chu Suiliang had a wry smile on his face. Seeing that His Highness the King of Jin was already looking at the file, he didn't dare to stop him and smiled apologetically.
Li Zhi took a deep breath and exhaled it slowly, with a solemn expression: "Can Minister Chu handle so many things?"
Chu Suiliang replied: "I can read it all."
I cried out in my heart that I hope His Highness the King of Jin will not bring trouble to his subordinates.
Li Zhi spread out a piece of paper, picked up a pen and wrote down a calculation. After making several calculations, he whispered: "There is something wrong with the accounts of the Ministry of War. It cost three thousand guan to purchase military leather armor, and the purchase of ten shi of raw cowhide will repay the money." But there are only three hundred strings left, five hundred strings missing."
"Huh?" Chu Suiliang was surprised and blinked hard. How fast?
Li Zhi wrote another equal sign on the paper, and then wrote calculations on both sides of the equal. Once the prices on both sides were checked, the equal sign became a greater than sign.
Chu Suiliang couldn't understand the calculation formula but he could understand the algorithm. He also calculated it himself, and it was really like this.
I immediately wrote a document and asked someone to check it. I found out that Hou Junji, the Minister of War, was not reliable in his work.
Li Zhi's algorithm is very easy to use, and Chu Suiliang found that it was faster to calculate, which was very useful.
"Shilang Chu, this king is not here to cause trouble, but to help."
"Ah...hey."
Chu Suiliang hesitated for a moment, then nodded heavily.
Seeing that the King of Jin had frightened the Minister of Public Affairs, Lady Gongsun stood aside and snickered.
In just half a day, Li Zhi helped Chu Suiliang sort out most of the accounts.
When Chu Suiliang looked back, His Highness the King of Jin not only calculated the accounts of the six departments clearly, but also seemed to have classified each account on a piece of paper.
Li Zhi said calmly: "In this way, Mr. Chu doesn't have to look through each volume. He can know if there are any errors or omissions just by looking at this chart."
When he took the paper, Chu Suiliang swallowed his saliva. It was obviously winter and there was some sweat on his forehead.
Li Zhi said slowly: "I remember that this kind of accounting method existed in Shangshu Province. Why is it that the government is still using such backward and error-prone accounts now."
"It's really..." Li Zhi sighed: "It's really too backward. No wonder my brother-in-law often says that Chaozhong can't keep up with Lishan's footsteps."
Chu Suiliang said quickly: "Your Majesty, I have received a lesson."
Li Zhi thought about it again and continued: "It's not to blame that the DPRK didn't ask for flexibility. It's because the people in the DPRK have been rigidized by these regulations. Everything is done according to the steps. , if you can accept some new knowledge, your efficiency can be improved several times."
Chu Suiliang swallowed again. Fortunately, it was Xiu Mu now, and there were not many people in Zhongshu Province. If other people heard this, the King of Jin would inevitably be impeached.
Is this a disciple of Lishan?
Knowledgeable and arrogant.
The temperament gives people a feeling of looking down on the world.
It only took Li Zhi half a day to handle Chu Suiliang's three days' work. This efficiency was indeed enough to look down on the court.
When leaving Zhongshu Province, Li Zhi felt bored and might as well go and have fun with Di Renjie and the others.
Miss Gongsun followed quickly, "The Queen told Her Highness to stop playing around."
Li Zhi left the palace faster and faster, "I have finished all the things my father told me, so I can go and have fun while there are no other instructions."
In the Ganlu Hall, Li Shimin had learned about Zhongshu Province, "Did you really say that?"
"Back to Your Majesty, His Highness Prince Jin's words were a bit excessive."
Li Shimin whispered: "Lishan has always been like this, looking down on old-fashioned systems."
"His Royal Highness Prince Jin has left the palace."
"Are you looking for Di Renjie again?"
"Yes."
"Yes." Li Shimin looked at the accounts prepared by Li Zhi and told the clerk in front of him: "There is no need to tell anyone what happened today."
"Here."
The little official actually saw some pride in His Majesty's eyes.
His Royal Highness the King of Jin was very arrogant in his words in Zhongshu Province, but he was also very humble and polite to others.
He is a sensible child. Even when he is playing around in Chang'an City, he is very careful and will not get into trouble.
You can return to the palace before dark.
In Wude Hall, those dining here tonight include His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, His Royal Highness Prince Jin and His Majesty.
Li Chengqian spoke first: "Zhinu completed the work of Minister Chu in three days in only half a day, and everyone admired him very much."
Li Zhi smiled and said: "It's just some mathematical knowledge."
Li Chengqian said again: "Father, I think that letting the young slaves just help Chu Suiliang is overkill."
Li Zhi said quickly: "My child is willing to apply what he has learned in Lishan to the country. However, in Lishan, my child is not very talented and has not met my brother-in-law's requirements in many courses. He is considered a poor student and barely passed. It is the emperor's fault that he praised me."
Li Shimin's eyes wandered between his two sons, and finally fell on Li Zhi, "Where do you want to serve in the court?"
Li Zhi thought for a moment and replied: "My child wants to go to the Ministry of Industry and the Imperial College."
"Chengqian, what do you think?"
Li Chengqian added: "The child thinks that a child slave can go to court with an orphan to listen to politics."
Speaking of which, it was too early for Li Zhi to go to politics before he was crowned. Li Shimin stroked his beard and said, "Child slave!"
"The child is here."
"When the rest is over, you will go to the Ministry of Works and the Imperial College. As for the matter of listening to the government, we will discuss it after you have performed the crown ceremony."
"Here."
The meal was a bit awkward. Li Zhi didn't like what the emperor said. According to the instructions of Brother Wei, he should always be careful about the prince's words.
Li Zhi was cautious in dealing with the prince's words and deeds, but he didn't understand whether the prince really had deep intentions or was really kind-hearted.
At the same time in Lishan, Zhang Yang was also watching what happened in Chang'an City recently, and paying attention to Li Zhi's deeds in the past two days after returning to Chang'an.
If the emperor dared to embarrass Lishan's disciples, Zhang Yang would not mind letting his daughter take Li Yuan to blast the walls of Chang'an City first.
Li Yue put the food on the table, she nodded and said, "Well, I have big bone soup to drink today."
Two pigs were killed in the village, and my aunt specially asked the village to keep a few large bones. After cutting the bones into sections, she cooked them in a large pot.
There are some chopped green onions floating on the soup, which is very fragrant just by smelling it.
Zhang Yang put down the letter in his hand and felt that Li Zhi could be more unruly in Chang'an without having to worry too much.
Pei Xingjian accepted Lishan's belongings. He was a disciple of Lishan and could work for Lishan. With Li Zhi's endorsement, his half-truth and half-false identity became real.
Lishan picked up a cheap disciple, Zhang Yang nodded with satisfaction.
Li Yue called into the library: "It's time to eat."
When the younger brothers and sisters who were studying in self-study smelled the aroma of the food, they had long lost their focus on studying. After hearing this, they rushed out of the door and started eating hungrily as soon as they sat down.
Qinghe said: "Dongyang, you have been eating more and more recently."
Dongyang said: "No, look at you, you are fat."
