The God-Level Prodigal Son of the Tang Dynasty

Zhao Chen didn't expect that Lu Dongzan would say such words to him.

Below one person, above ten thousand people?

It sounds a bit tempting, but Zhao Chen doesn't want to be exposed to the sun on the plateau.

After all, life is still comfortable in Datang.

Lu Dongzan was also a ruthless man. He deliberately talked about the killing of his son, but he couldn't let him show his anger.

This kind of person is terrible.

However, Zhao Chen didn't care.

It is really strange that the emperor asked himself to discuss mutual trade with Lu Dongzan.

Although as Zhao Chen thought, Li Shimin did not come by himself.

But he had only been back to Wannian County for a few days, and this was causing trouble for him again.

Jun Gong Zhao, you and I are old acquaintances. The ability shown by Jun Gong Zhao made me admire you very much.

I am here today for the benefit of the people of the two countries. I would like to ask Duke Zhao to think about it more. Lu Dongzan and Zhao Chen said, cupping their hands.

What Zhao Chen said in reply just now was just to protect Tubo.

But Lu Dongzan still didn't dare to really conflict with Zhao Chen.

Now he speaks extremely gently.

Think about it? Zhao Chen smiled.

If it wasn't a last resort, why would Tubo send Lu Dongzan over at this time and say that they would reopen the mutual trade.

Something everyone knows very well.

However, Lu Dongzan gritted his teeth and refused to let go.

Zhao Chen has not forgotten that he was thrown to the front line of Songzhou by the emperor.

That time, if he hadn't created the fire pot, few of those who followed him on the expedition would be alive.

Now that Tubo himself has a problem, he still wants to lick his face and come back to beg him.

Isn't this a joke?

Lu Dongzan, do you think I will agree to your request? Zhao Chen looked at Lu Dongzan with a smile and asked.

Ludong Zanke had never thought about this problem.

Although he came here to persuade Zhao Chen to agree to reopen the mutual market.

Can

Whether Zhao Chen would agree to it, he really never thought about it.

In other words, since he knew that the emperor gave Zhao Chen full authority to handle the matter, he lost any confidence in himself.

Jun Gong Zhao...

Lu Dongzan, actually agreeing to reopen the mutual market is not a big problem. Zhao Chen waved his hand casually, interrupting Lu Dongzan.

Hearing this, Lu Dongzan was overjoyed.

But he also understood that Zhao Chen must have conditions.

If Duke Zhao is willing to reopen the mutual market, Lu Dongzan can swear that Tubo will be grateful to Duke Zhao for his great kindness for the rest of his life. Lu Dongzan pointed his fingers to the sky and vowed.

Even Lu Dongzan himself didn't believe this oath.

Because of Zhao Chen, his son died.

How could Lu Dongzan let Zhao Chen go?

It was Tubo. Once they regained their composure, if they marched eastward to capture the Tang Dynasty, the first one they would kill would be Zhao Chen.

Only the death of such a terrible figure will make people feel at ease.

Zhao Chen naturally didn't believe what Lu Dongzan said, but he also had his own plan.

Then he said, We can reopen the mutual market. Whatever you want, Datang can do it for free. Datang can also give you materials to build a cement road directly to your city of Luoshu...

…

Your Majesty, I have something to report.

In the Ganquan Hall, Li Shimin looked at Kong Yingda who came over at night with an incomprehensible expression.

Kong Yingda is the 31st grandson of the Kong family in Qufu.

Before the founding of the Tang Dynasty, he was one of the eighteen bachelors of Li Shimin's Qin Palace.

He was also deeply favored by Li Shimin.

But Kong Yingda only focused on academics and rarely cared about other things, so Li Shimin was a little confused about his arrival.

If anything happens to Kong Qing, just ask! Li Shimin continued to review the memorial.

Now in April, summer rain has not been seen in various places for a long time.

If this continues, this year's locust plague will probably come soon.

Although Zhao Chen had given many suggestions before, Li Shimin was still worried that the people below would get away with it.

He has been very busy these days.

Your Majesty, does your Majesty know what Wannian County Duke Zhao Chen has been doing recently? Kong Yingda asked in a deep voice, looking a little unhappy.

Li Shimin was stunned for a moment.

He only remembered that he asked Zhao Chen to handle the mutual market affairs.

As for what Zhao Chen was doing specifically, he really didn't know.

What happened to Zhao Chen again? Li Shimin frowned.

Your Majesty, Wannian County Duke Zhao Chen is opening a medical school in Wannian County...

Wouldn't it be great to open a medical school?

Li Shimin looked at Kong Yingda and thought to himself.

It is certainly good to open a medical school, but Duke Zhao actually allows women to enroll.

Your Majesty, how can a woman be like a man?

Only women and villains are difficult to raise. If you are close, you will feel inferior, and if you are far, you will resent them.

The admission of women to school is clearly to disturb the general order. Zhao Chen's move is really treasonous. Please ask Your Majesty to reprimand him. Kong Yingda talked to Li Shimin for a long time.

Finally, he thought about giving Zhao Chen a lesson.

Kong Yingda is not afraid of Zhao Chen.

The Confucius family has been passed down for thousands of years, and no matter which dynasty it belongs to, it will remain standing.

It is based on the method of monopolizing education.

Their ideas have already deviated from their ancestors' thousands of years ago.

Today, the Kong family is just thinking about how to please the royal family and how to maintain their own status.

Li Shimin frowned.

He didn't want to get too involved in Zhao Chen's affairs.

Opening a medical school is another good thing.

The fact that this woman enrolled in school made him find it difficult to handle.

Even if a woman studies, she does so in her own home.

Was there ever a dedicated women's college?

Once a precedent is set for women to enter school, Datang will definitely set off a trend.

Girls would compete to get into the academy.

This was actually a big problem for the men of the Tang Dynasty.

People are selfish.

No one is willing to give up their own resources to others!

Zhao Chen did this even if his starting point was good.

But after all, the impact was too great.

What do you think Kong Qing wants to stop Zhao Chen?

There is no provision in the Tang Code that says women are not allowed to enter school. Does Kong Qing want to change the Tang Code now or something? Li Shimin said.

Kong Yingda looked gloomy.

He could tell from these words that the emperor still seemed to be interested in protecting Zhao Chen.

Not everything must be written into Tang laws. Women were not allowed to enter school. This has long been a deep-rooted concept in everyone's mind.

Although it has not been written into the Tang Code, it cannot be changed.

Your Majesty, I dare not change the laws of the Tang Dynasty, but what Duke Zhao has done is really worrying.

As the head of the Kong family, I have the responsibility to safeguard the interests of scholars all over the world.

Tomorrow, I will go to Wannian County in person to discuss with Duke Zhao, Kong Yingda and Li Shimin said.

Li Shimin looked a little ugly.

What does it mean to serve the interests of scholars all over the world?

Isn’t it the benefit of your Kong family?

Once Zhao Chen sets a precedent for women to enter school, he will definitely be supported by all the women in the Tang Dynasty.

As a model for all generations, the Kong family will definitely be greatly affected.

Women in the Tang Dynasty were not inferior to men. If they continued to learn, many men would be squeezed out of their original positions.

How can the Kong family maintain their status?

This is Kong Yingda's true thoughts.
