I am Li Shimin of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 31 Bingzhou Academy
Soon Li Shimin was brought back home by Li Jue. In order to show his love for his nephew, Li Jue set up a banquet with great fanfare and prepared to have a lively celebration.

He also invited important members of his family and some close friends, and planned to introduce Li Shimin to everyone.

After all, the Li family is also a wealthy family, and these relatives and friends who come and go can also be called "there are no white people". They have a pivotal position in the officialdom and shopping malls of Bingzhou.Li Shimin took this opportunity to get to know so many contacts, naturally he was very happy and satisfied.

What surprised him the most was that Linghu Chu also came to the Li family's banquet, which shows that Linghu Chu and Li Jue are also closely related.

Seeing that all the guests he had invited had arrived, Li Jue got up and walked towards the center of the banquet with a wine glass in his hand, and said to everyone with a smile: "You are all members of my Li family, as well as close friends of our Li family, there is a happy event today I would like to share with you that Li Shimin, the son of my eldest brother Li Zan, has returned from his studies, please take care of him in the future."

When everyone heard that it was Li Zan's son, all of them showed strange faces. After all, they were very close, as if they had never heard of Li Zan having a son named Li Shimin.

Li Jue saw it, and did not immediately defend himself. His expression changed from joy to sadness, and he said with a bit of vicissitudes: "In order to avoid the disaster of the party, my elder brother asked his confidantes to bring his infant son to Bingzhou, but he never thought about it. , the youngest son was separated, and the guard died in battle. This past is an old story, so it’s not surprising that everyone doesn’t know about it.”

Only then did everyone suddenly realize that this was the case.It is true that everyone knows that Li Ying was originally a member of the party. Unfortunately, he was persecuted and died that year.

When everyone followed Li Jue's voice and saw a handsome young man behind him, they realized that this person might be Li Shimin.

"Excellent temperament, introverted and humble, and hidden." This is the first impression everyone has of Li Shimin. After careful observation, everyone can feel his unique temperament that cannot be described. Convinced.

This banquet also went on lively and lively all afternoon, and it was getting dark when everyone left one after another. Li Shimin also respectfully saluted and bid farewell to everyone at the door.

When everyone left, Li Jue took Li Shimin to the inner room alone, as if he had something to say.

"Shimin, what are your plans next? Are you still going to Mayi? The old man can help you with activities, and it is not difficult to do some errands in Jinyang." Li Jue looked more and more satisfied with Li Shimin, so asked very sincerely.

"Shimin thanked Uncle first, but I still want to go back to Mayi. It is the place that carries my ideals and my initial starting point. I still want to go back there." Li Shimin said truthfully.

Seeing that Li Shimin had his own ideas, Li Jue no longer forced himself, pointed to a few boxes in the room and said, "Shimin, I can see that you are someone who has achieved great things. There are 1 taels of gold here, which is uncle's A little greeting gift from me may be of some help to you, and I hope you can accept it and don't refuse."

"Besides, this will be your home in Jinyang from now on. I have asked someone to tidy up a separate small courtyard, and you will live here from now on." Li Jue said with some emotion: "The two of us are also destined, I am I sincerely regard you as my nephew, and I hope you will not see outsiders."

Li Shimin could clearly feel Li Jue's strong love and care, and was very moved. Although the two were not directly related by blood, and perhaps the purpose of the Li family looking for him was not pure, but at this time the old man's love for him But it is sincere.

Li Shimin also said emotionally: "My nephew thanks uncle, this place will be my home from now on, and I have a family too."

That night, I lived in the small courtyard arranged by Li Jue. The room was well furnished, very warm and comfortable, which made Li Shimin feel like he was at home.

…………

Li Jue wrote down the matter of finding Li Shimin, in which he also said that he had arranged for Li Shimin to be Li Zan's son on his own, and that Li Shimin wanted to recognize his ancestor and return to his family, so he asked Li Yunyue to quickly send it to the old patriarch. hand.

Later, Li Jue also received a reply letter from the old Patriarch, saying that he should continue to spare no effort to help Li Shimin, and that he was very satisfied with Li Jue's arrangement, and also said that he agreed to let Li Shimin return to the Li family when the time was right.

Li Jue also understood that the old Patriarch was very satisfied with his arrangement.

The next day Li Shimin got up very early, greeted Li Jue, and told him that he would go out today to settle the guards in the inn, and then he would come back.

After returning to the inn, he asked his guard Li Fang to look for Yaxing to find a secluded house in Jinyang. Li Shimin planned to buy it as a "secret contact point" in Jinyang for future convenience.

When he was about to leave, a guard ran in and said, "My lord, a girl sent you a letter, but she has already left." Then he handed the letter to Li Shimin.

Li Shimin was also very surprised, "Who could this be?", and opened the letter while speaking.

It turned out that Zhang Rui, Zhang Yi's daughter, invited him to attend the annual Scholars Conference organized by Bingzhou Academy the day after tomorrow.

Li Shimin immediately became interested. In his previous life, he also liked this elegance very much. Although he is not a talented person, his own Danqing is a rare opponent. calligrapher.

I was still thinking about how to find an opportunity to get close to Zhang Rui, and this opportunity came.But on second thought, why did Zhang Rui invite me?We just met each other...

In the Han Dynasty, the imperial court had Taixue, Hongdumenxue, Didixue, and Xiaohouxue with four surnames.In addition, the Han Dynasty also set up local government schools according to administrative regions, counties and states set up 'schools', counties and towns set up 'schools', townships set up 'Xiang', and Ju (villages) set up 'orders'.

There are roughly two functions of local schools. One is to teach Confucian classics, train officials in counties and counties, and at the same time send outstanding students to the imperial court or Taixue. The second is to educate the localities.

Therefore, Bingzhou also has its own county school, named Bingzhou Academy, which is very famous in Bingzhou and even Sili.

"Xiulan, has your letter been delivered? What did that person say?" Zhang Rui asked in a daze.

"Miss, when I went to deliver the letter, Li Shimin was not there. It was his guard who received the letter. The guard said that it must be delivered to Li Shimin today, so you can relax." Xiulan said with a smile.

"Miss, why did you invite him to the Scholars Conference?" Xiulan said playfully, "Miss, don't you just like that Li Shimin? I think this person is barely worthy of my lady, hehe laugh…"

"I'm talking nonsense, I'm tearing your mouth apart. I just think this person is a bit interesting. Even my father wants to ask him for advice, to see what he is capable of." At this time, Zhang Rui's face was flushed, and even herself I don't know if I'm telling the truth or a lie.

It turned out that after seeing Li Shimin last time, Zhang Rui often dreamed of him for some reason, and that handsome and handsome figure always appeared in her mind, so he wrote a letter inviting him to attend the Bingzhou Scholars Conference .

At this moment, she was still worrying secretly, would Li Shimin not come to participate...
