Li Shimin

Chapter 53 The fish here are very thieves
soon.

The vigorous learning of mathematics and arithmetic began in the Tai Chi Palace.

Li Shimin sat behind the top table.

Pei Ji, Li Gang, Kong Yingda, Changsun Wuji and other ministers sat below each holding a number and arithmetic book in their hands.

Prince Li Chengqian explained its meaning to the ministers.

Fortunately, these ministers all had in their hands Li Chengqian's handwritten numbers and arithmetic books.In addition, all the ministers in the entire hall can be regarded as the smartest group of people in the Tang Dynasty, and they all have a basis for calculation.

Therefore, Li Chengqian only explained for half a day.

These ministers have already learned the general idea.

Go back and think carefully, and you can learn the most basic addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division of arithmetic.

As for the equations, Li Chengqian himself hasn't learned much, so naturally he won't teach these people.

However, now Li Shimin, Pei Ji and others just want to use digital arithmetic to replace bookkeeping and arithmetic, and learning addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division is enough.

Then, in less than a few days.

All the officials in Chang'an City began to hold a number arithmetic booklet in their hands, and followed their chief officials to learn number arithmetic.

……

The Zheng family in Xingyang.

The head of the family, Zheng Yuanzhe, and the elder of the second room, Zheng Yuanjing.

Looking at the number and arithmetic booklet that Zheng Mingde handed up below, he was full of curiosity.

"Ok?"

Just flipping through it, I couldn't help frowning slightly, and looked at Zheng Mingde.

Half of the text, they have never seen.

"Old Ba, these strange characters are the numbers that are widely circulated in Chang'an City?"

"At home, it's that number!"

Zheng Mingde quickly nodded and replied, "Please read, the first page is the annotation of the numbers..."

Then, Zheng Mingde recounted everything he had learned from the officials of the Zheng family in Chang'an City.

After hearing this, both Zheng Yuanzhe and Zheng Yuanjing were shocked.

After a long time, the two looked at each other, and said directly: "Mingde, copy out ten copies of this book. Let the school at home also start teaching this number arithmetic!"

"Yes, master!"

Zheng Mingde nodded quickly in response.

"I heard that there is also an enlightenment letter?"

Zheng Yuanzhe continued to ask.

"Master, this is true!"

"Is there a booklet?" Zheng Yuanzhe asked.

"Patriarch, the Book of Enlightenment Alphabets seems to be owned only by Prince Li Chengqian. However, Prince Li Chengqian carries this book with him every day, and there is nothing we can do about it!"

Zheng Mingde quickly explained.

Hearing this, both Zheng Yuanzhe and Zheng Yuanjing had a trace of regret flashing in their eyes.

Afterwards, Zheng Yuanzhe continued to look at Zheng Mingde.

"These are all created by the little master in Lijiazhuang?"

"Go home, Lord, Li Er has never been to any other place except Lijiazhuang these few days!"

Zheng Mingde hurriedly cupped his hands and replied.

After hearing this, Zheng Yuanzhe frowned slightly, and said: "During these days, that little master hasn't come out by himself?"

"Go home, Lord, not once!"

"It's a pity! I didn't expect that Li Er is really lucky!"

Zheng Yuanzhe sighed slightly, raised his head and looked at Zheng Mingde.

"Is there a way to arrange someone to contact that little master."

"It's the head of the house, Mingde will do it now!"

Zheng Mingde hastily cupped his hands, "However, the guards guarding Li's Village are all Li Er's personal guards, so it is difficult to deploy them. I heard that Li Er sent many craftsmen to Li's Village to serve as generals and supervisors..."

"Go!"

Zheng Yuanzhe nodded slightly.

"Yes, master!"

Zheng Mingde's expression was serious, he saluted, and then retreated.

at the same time.

The Cui family of Boling, the Cui family of Qinghe, the Lu family of Fanyang, the Wang family of Taiyuan, the Wei family of Jingzhao, the Pei family of Hedong... and other aristocratic families, each head of the family holds a book of number arithmetic in his hand and gives the same order.

In Chang'an City, there was an inexplicably strange atmosphere.

……

However, inside the Li Family Manor, there is still peace.

"Gao Ming, bring the fish basket, nothing will happen this afternoon, my master will take you down the river to catch fish!"

After lunch, under Li Chengqian's help, Li Xuan washed all the dishes, looked up at the sun, and said to Li Chengqian.

"Go down the river to catch fish?"

Hearing this, Li Chengqian's eyes lit up, and then he was overjoyed.

They ran to the side room separately, and according to Li Xuan's instructions, they carried a fish basket half a person's height on their backs, a long fishing net on their shoulders, and a fishing rod in their other hand.

He followed closely behind Li Xuan. Although there were many things and he needed to adjust his position from time to time, his face was full of joy, just like a small follower, making several guards in the distance look sad.

A good His Royal Highness, it has not been long since he came to Lijiazhuang, and he has become like this. Fortunately, the empress did not see it, otherwise...

Just thinking about it, these guards couldn't help shaking their heads quickly, full of shock.

"Master, why did you suddenly think of catching fish today?"

The Juhe River is beside Lijiazhuang Village, so the two of them arrived at the place within a few steps.

Putting down the utensils, Li Chengqian asked curiously while wandering along the Juhe River.

"If you want to eat fish, come and catch it!"

Li Xuan replied casually, "The sun is so bright today, sitting by the river and catching fish must be very comfortable. This kind of warm time is not many, you should cherish it!"

"Yes, Master!"

Li Chengqian nodded lightly.

As for Li Xuan's answer, Li Chengqian didn't care.

This time, it was his first time to personally catch fish by the river, his face flushed with excitement.

After Li Xuan put an earthworm on a fishing rod and handed it to him, Li Chengqian excitedly threw down the fishing rod, and then stared at the river closely.

As for Li Xuan, he was lying bored on a big bluestone.

With a relaxed face.

From time to time, he raised his head, glanced at the river, and then lay down again, so that the sun could fully shine on him.

"Master, why haven't the fish taken the bait yet?"

After a long while, he didn't feel any movement from the fishing rod, and Li Chengqian couldn't help but look anxious.

"Take a look at the fishing rod, are the earthworms still there?"

Li Xuan moved his eyelids and said slowly.

"what?"

Li Chengqian was startled, and quickly picked up the fishing rod.

However, the fishhook was already bare, and his face was full of anger.

"Master, those thieves have secretly eaten the earthworms!"

"It's okay, continue to string earthworms and continue fishing!"

Li Xuan said.

"Yes!"

For Li Xuan, Li Chengqian still trusted him very much.

Afterwards, after continuing to string earthworms on the hooks, they were thrown into the river.

Then, another half hour passed, and the hook still remained motionless.

Li Chengqian was a little anxious again, turning his head from time to time to glance at Li Xuan.

In the end, I couldn't hold back.

"Master, there is still no movement!"

"Pick up the fishing rod and see if the earthworms are still there?"

"what?"

Li Chengqian was shocked again.

Soon, his face was full of anger.

"Master, the fish here are all very thieves!"
