Emperor Xiaoyao of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 119

Along the way, Li Er was not attracted by the smell of a single restaurant. He had already reached the east gate, and Li Er was too embarrassed to ride back on horseback. Wouldn't that be a loss of face in front of Li Yifeng?Coincidentally, Li Er thought of Jin Yu, the prodigal son, and now many of his troubles are caused by him, so he won't ignore it if he goes to find a meal, right?So Li Er pointed at the horsewhip: "Go out of the city gate and go to the white grass beach!"

"Master, you can't do it! In case of any accident, it doesn't matter if the little one dies, you are a thousand-dollar body ``````" Li Yifeng was terrified, and there were officers and soldiers patrolling past in the city from time to time. If he went out of the city gate, But it's hard to say.

"In a prosperous age, what can happen? I have made up my mind, so there is no need to say more!" Li Er glared at Li Yifeng and said in a low voice.

"Then go recruit more people?" Li Yifeng saw that he couldn't stop it, so he immediately suggested.

Li Er glared at him and rode his horse out of the city gate without saying a word.Li Yifeng had no choice but to ride his horse to keep up. It would be a felony to exterminate the nine clans if this master had an accident.

Li Er really miscalculated this time. When he was King of Qin, he often went out a lot, but he didn't go out much after he ascended the throne.It is said that this prosperous age has changed quite a lot. It used to be barren, but now it has become a thousand acres of fertile land. Li Er rode away like this `````` lost his way``````
After Jin Yu bought the vegetables, he leisurely went to Changlefang to have a look. Now that Luo Shuangquan and his group of children have gone to school in the village, all the chickens in Changlefang have been distributed to the tenants for foster care. He is still not very relieved about the crops, so he goes to have a look at them every now and then.

Except for Han Wu who accompanied him on the first day, Jin Yu went to and from get off work alone. After all, Zhuangzi was short of manpower, and Yang Ying didn't force it.

Jin Yu's life is very good now, he has a title and an official salary, and he only works half a day.Buy some vegetables and fruits after get off work, and make them when I get home, tsk, these days.The more comfortable thing is yet to come. Jin Yu can't write traditional characters, Yang Ying teaches Jin Yu how to read, and Jin Yu teaches Yang Ying mathematics. Husband and wife follow suit, very harmonious.

When Jin Yu came out of the gate of the city, he saw Li Er and Li Er were sweating profusely, asking for directions, some shook their heads, and someone pointed them in the direction of Baicaotan.Jin Yu didn't know, so Yaoyao nodded to Li Er as a greeting, and then walked towards Baicaotan.

Li Er and Li Er were not slow to catch up. Seeing Jin Yu's unhurried appearance, Li Er also slowed down his horse speed. This is the third time they met today, and the fate is not shallow, so he greeted him: "Xiao Langjun, are you going to Baicaotan?"

Jin Yu nodded and said, "Yes, uncle too?"

"Uncle?" Li Er was taken aback. After living for so many years, this was the first time someone called him that. He asked, "Isn't Mr. Xiao Lang from Chang'an?"

"Is it considered now? It's only been a few days since I came here." Jin Yu replied with a smile.

Seeing Jin Yu's way of buying vegetables in person, plus the address, Li Er now felt that the person in front of him was probably Jin Yu, so he asked, "Is your surname Jin?"

"The surname is Jin and the name is Yu, and the name belongs to Tang. I don't know how to call the uncle?" Jin Yu saw that everyone asked this question, and most of the time he was looking for him. He couldn't help but find out his identity, right?
"My old man, Li Zhen, works in the household department, just call me uncle, haha. I'm here to visit Guitang today, won't you refuse to welcome me?" Li Er originally had some opinions on Jin Yu, especially the relationship between Changle and Empress Xiao. In fact, when I saw Jin Yu, I thought this prodigal son was quite interesting, so I didn't intend to reveal my real identity. Without the difference in identity, the communication would be smoother.

"How can it? Welcome." Jin Yu hurriedly cupped his hands, but he was still a little worried, wondering what the court officials wanted him to do.

"I'm fine, I just heard about Tang Daming for a long time, so I came here to pay a special visit." Li and Li are the only ones, and it's impossible not to see Jin Yu's thoughts.

"My nephew must greet you with good wine and good food!" Let Li Er say this, and Jin Yu is relieved, "It's not easy to say that a friend comes from afar"!As long as there is no malice, Jin Yu doesn't mind showing off his cooking skills.

When the two of them said this, the lion ran over, causing Li Er and his steeds to snort. They became a little nervous, but they didn't panic. Li Yifeng immediately turned over and got off the horse, with his hands on the knife. When the handle is on, I'm afraid that the lion will rush over all of a sudden, which will be bad for Li Er.

Jin Yu got off the horse quickly, groping for the lion, not to mention the enthusiasm of the two brothers.

"Is this raised by Tang?" Li Er looked interested. He also participated in the autumn hunting and so on, so he naturally saw the extraordinaryness of the lion.

"It's for fun, hehe, I made uncle laugh." The lion looked wary of Li Yifeng, and it seemed that the lion also found that Li Yifeng's force value was not low. Jin Yu touched the lion's head to signal it to relax.

"This is a dog, right? Tubo people worship this kind of dog like a god, but their minds are not very clear." As the enemy of Tang Dynasty, Li Er knew a little bit about Tubo, shaking his head regretfully.

When the lion heard that Li Er said it was stupid, the lion was not happy, and grinned at Li Er, which made Li Yifeng nervous, and finally put down his hand, and pressed it on the handle of the knife again, and blocked Li Er from the knife. behind.

Jin Yu patted the lion's head and told it: "Go home and report."

The lion licked Jin Yu's hand, bared his teeth at Li Er, and ran away.

Li Er was dumbfounded, pointing at the lion and stammering: "This```this```"

"Uncle laughed, he is smarter than ordinary dogs." Jin Yu was very proud, the lion gave himself a face this time.

"Good dog!" Li Er came back to his senses and praised, "It's much better than the ones raised by the old man."

Jin Yu smiled, got on his horse, made a gesture of please, and continued to walk forward.

"The punctuation mark of Guitang has caused a lot of controversy. Many people come to participate in Guitang!" Li Er didn't forget the original meaning of his headache, and asked Jin Yu for an explanation.

"Ah? This one also participates?" Jin Yu was really surprised. He thought that the discussions in the court were all big things, and these trivial things would not exhaust the emperor to death?
"Yes, His Majesty has suppressed it for the time being. The old man came to see what Gui Tang had to say."

Jin Yu turned around and cupped his hands in the direction of the palace, Li Er looked surprised, "What is Gui Tang doing?"

"Your Majesty has worked hard, and these trivial things have to bother his old man. My nephew is sorry." Jin Yu said helplessly.

"Haha~~" Li Erfu laughed twice, pointed at Jin Yu and said, "Guitang is really interesting."

"Uncle laughed at me." Jin Yu arched his hands and explained: "This arithmetic is far more rigorous than the Four Books and Five Classics. If you don't understand the meaning of the questions, the possibility of making mistakes is too great. The deeper you learn, the more you will understand, so My nephew will ask to learn punctuation first."

"Let's talk about returning to Tang in private, but don't spread it to the ears of those great Confucians, or the emperor will add some trivial matters." Confucianism is still very respected these days, so Li Er reminded Jin Yudao.

"Yes, yes. My nephew is rude." Jin Yu claimed that the junior has such an advantage, and few people are willing to care about anything with the junior, and lose their position!

"What Guitang means is that I have to learn the punctuation marks?" Li Er waved his hand to show that he didn't care, and returned to the topic.

"My nephew's meaning is still good to learn. Not to mention arithmetic, even the Four Books and Five Classics also need to add punctuation marks." Jin Yu felt a headache when he saw those without punctuation. A lot of energy, a waste.

"Why do you say that?"

"My nephew is abrupt, give the uncle a question." Jin Yu is not very eloquent and doesn't know how to explain it. An example should be more effective than a futile explanation. "'If it's raining, you can stay with guests, but if it's raining, I won't stay', how do you think the sentence should be broken?"

"It's raining to keep guests, but the sky keeps me?" These days, Li Er has the fixed thinking of people of this age.

Jin Yu nodded in affirmation and said: "This is just one of the sentence punctuation methods. The meaning of the expression is different depending on the place of the pause. For example, 'Leave a guest on a rainy day, will the sky keep me? Stay', and 'Leave a guest on a rainy day' Oh my god, will you stay or not?', it can also be read as "Leave a guest on a rainy day, God! Will you keep me? Stay!" The meanings of these expressions are different from what the uncle said, and there are other meanings if you continue to stop."

"This ```" This is really the first time Li Er has heard of this, and he has never thought about it before.

"It's okay to play games, but if someone writes something ambiguous on purpose in the memorial, hehe, it's a big deal." Jin Yu also deliberately drew the person in front of him in this direction, who would let others yell at him? ?Don't you want to change?If you don't want to change, you are selfish!Who wouldn't buckle up?

"Hehe~" Li Er was noncommittal, and put the topic aside, looking at the writing on the wall of the village college at the entrance of the village, he read: "People are educated for a hundred years, and trees are educated for ten years?"

"It's the wrong way to read it. It's ten years of cultivating trees and one hundred years of educating people." Jin Yu sweated profusely. The people in front of him were obviously not as good as Wen Zongchang, a private teacher. Jin Yu's idea truly realizes the "teaching students in accordance with their aptitude" as the sage said.

"Well written! Gui Tang really got the point right! Just based on this sentence, the old man is not in vain!" Li Er didn't expect Jin Yu to see things in such a long-term, and he really didn't know that Jin Yu was just plagiarizing.

"It's just picking up people's teeth, don't take it as an uncle's boast." Jin Yu cupped his hands in embarrassment, he was not as cheeky as that.

"Brother Zhuangzhu!" Before Li Er could answer, Xiao Shitou, who came out of school, saw Jin Yu coming back, greeted him from a distance, and ran towards Jin Yu.The last time Xiao Shitou called Mr. Jin Yu, Luo Shuangquan gave him a warning. Now he has changed his words, but he still added "brother" after the owner.

Jin Yu dismounted and picked up Xiao Shitou who ran over, and asked happily: "Little Shitou, is school over?"

"Brother Zhuangzhu, he has a great name, Teacher Wen said he would call him 'Zhu Peng'." Xiao Shikui protested.

"Okay, Zhu Peng!" Jin Yu touched Xiao Shi's head, pointed to Li Er and said, "Come say hello to Uncle."

"Hello, Uncle!" Zhu Peng shouted crisply, without admitting it at all.

Li Er nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, Zhu Peng is good." After all, it was the first time we met, and I reached out to touch something as a gift, but found that I didn't bring anything for a change of clothes!That's right, which emperor brought money with him when he went out?
Jin Yu put Zhu Peng down, patted him on the head, and said, "Go and eat, if you don't go, you will run out of food!"

"No way, Master Xu always saves food for us." Although Xiao Shitou said so, he didn't stop on his feet, waved at Li Er, and chased after the large army.
