Li Zhi, don't be a coward

Chapter 696

It was Li Qinzai's responsibility to hold parent-teacher meetings.

They entrust their children to him, and they always talk to them about the situation every year, whether the teacher's level is high or low, what kind of quality the students teach, whether they have become elites or more useless...

All these must be explained to the parents. It does not mean that it is enough to close the door and teach silently. Holding a parent-teacher meeting is also considered a sophistication, and the things that should be done must be done.

Of course, the main purpose of Li Qinzai's parent meeting was to file a complaint.

These little bastards are too shameless, their grades are a pile of shit, and they are so tired of whipping their whips that they let their own fathers do it.

Standing at the entrance of the village, the monarch and his subjects chatted for a while, and then... Li Zhi didn't enter the other courtyard, but went straight to the ground with the dignitaries.

In the fertile field not far from the main gate of the other courtyard, thousands of guards were on guard. Li Zhi led the dignitaries to the field where sweet potatoes were grown. Lao Yuan pointed at the newly sprouted green shoots.

Li Zhi was quite excited. When he left a few days ago, the sweet potato seeds in the field hadn't moved yet. Unexpectedly, they sprouted after only a few days.

Those green shoots represent hopes one by one. These hopes can be summed up in only two words, "not hungry".

"If it weren't for Jingchu, I wouldn't know that there is such a high-yield grain in the world, with an output of [-] catties per mu. Who would believe it? Haha." Li Zhi was obviously in a happy mood, laughing loudly from time to time.

Empress Wu next to him stared at the green shoots in amazement, and then cast a glance at Li Qinzai. There was not much joy in his eyes, but some suspicion.

Obviously, the existence of this species of sweet potato made Empress Wu unbelievable. In her cognition, the yield of five thousand catties per mu was really inconceivable, so she doubted Li Qinzai's estimate.

The dignitaries behind frowned, obviously they also had some doubts, it was not a matter of distrust of Li Qinzai, when something broke their previous inherent cognition, no one's first reaction was ecstatic, but Doubt its authenticity first.

"Your Majesty, this thing... really has a yield of five thousand catties per mu?" Empress Wu asked softly.

Li Zhi smiled and said: "I didn't believe it at first, but Jing Chu said it for sure. I have never doubted Jing Chu, so I also believed it. Yes, I am sure that it must have five thousand catties per mu."

All the ministers behind smiled wryly, your words... other than being unreasonable, I really can't find any other faults.

Idealism defeated materialism, I believe in Li Qinzai, so it must have five thousand catties per mu.

Listen, do people speak?
However, Li Qinzai bowed gratefully to Li Zhi: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your trust."

Li Zhi patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "I believe in you because you have never let me down, and there has never been a false statement in what you have said."

The dignitaries were taken aback immediately, and all eyes were on Li Qinzai.

Li Zhi's favor and trust in Li Qinzai is well known in the world, but they did not expect Li Zhi to express his trust in Li Qinzai so straightforwardly in public.

This is not just as simple as the relationship between the monarch and his ministers. From Li Zhi's expression and tone, it is clear that he regards Li Qinzai as a brother, otherwise he would not have said so positively that the yield of sweet potatoes per mu would be five thousand catties before the results came out. .

Such words are easy to slap in the face, especially from the mouth of the emperor. If it is not achieved in the future, it will damage the prestige of the emperor.

The dignitaries had complicated eyes, and they had a deeper understanding of Li Qinzai's status in the court.

The person in front of him is not just the grandson of the Duke of England, the Marquis of Weinan County, and the teacher.

His biggest reliance is not his birth and official rank, but the emperor's favor.

In the future, if anyone doesn't have long-sighted eyes and conflicts with him, it is basically equivalent to provoking the current day, and its fate... Think for yourself.

The dignitaries still had smiles on their faces, but their expressions and tone of voice were quite different from before. The subtle changes could not be noticed by those who were not involved in the game.

Standing by the field for a long time, Li Zhi looked expectant, pointing to the few sweet potato sprouts, and babbling about the future prosperity of Datang after the yield of [-] catties per mu.

His demeanor and tone were full of longing, and he almost regarded sweet potato as a bastard in the wishing pool, and made a bunch of messy wishes.

Among them, after the yield of [-] jin per mu, we must get some money to repair the Daming Palace, and build a palace in Luoyang, the eastern capital. By the way, Li Qinzai also produced cement. The next step is to pave the cement road between Chang'an and Luoyang , to facilitate Li Zhi and Empress Wu to jump repeatedly between the two places.

Li Zhi spoke so much that his mouth was sputtering, Li Qinzai couldn't bear it anymore.

"Your Majesty, it's time to smoke the child..."

Li Zhi was stunned: "Huh?"

"What I mean by this is that it's time for the parents' meeting."

"Let's open it, let's open it here, I won't go to your house anymore, I will be happy when I see these green shoots, I won't go anywhere today, I will talk about the big things at the edge of the field."

Li Qinzai is speechless, you are really a firework with different colors...

Looking behind him, a group of middle-aged and elderly dignitaries smiled and showed approval. Obviously, everyone had the same thoughts.

Li Qinzai sighed, and then his expression became serious: "Your Majesty, elders, half a year has passed since last winter, and the school took a big exam the day before yesterday, and the results were very unsatisfactory. It can be said that I am heartbroken!"

Li Qinzai showed a distressed expression of anger and indisputability.

Li Zhi still smiled, and said, "Jingchu, please continue."

All the dignitaries were also laughing, as if they didn't care about the exam results at all.

Li Qinzai blinked, it was different from what he had imagined.

"Everyone, your grades are so bad, don't you have the urge to whip your child?"

Shangguanyi stroked his beard and laughed, "Not at all."

Li Qinzai was stunned: "Why?"

Shangguanyi focused on Li Qinzai, and said deeply: "In order to study, you must first cultivate morality. If you have morality, you can do everything. But learning comes after you cultivate morality. My grandson has been studying in your school for less than two years. , but you have already done a good job, studying is a lifetime thing, why should I be impatient, just take your time."

Li Qinzai became more and more puzzled: "Grandpa Shangguan, your child is not yet ten years old, how can you tell that he is already virtuous?"

Shangguanyi smiled and said: "I have my own vision. Today, I came here for this... Well, the parent meeting, and secondly, to thank you in person. Thank you for cultivating a good teacher for my Shangguan family. child."

Li Qinzai's expression was blank. He thought that he had integrated into this world after traveling through the past few years, but at this moment, he found himself naive.

He is still unfamiliar with this world, especially the values ​​of people in this world.

Shouldn't the seven wolves be drawn out if the test scores are not good?Why do these people have approving expressions on their faces?

At this time Empress Wu also smiled lightly and said: "What Shangguan Shilang said is true, Xian'er's child has also changed a lot, it's all thanks to Jing Chu, today I also specially come to thank you."
