What happened in the craftsman's workshop soon reached Li Shimin's ears. Li Shimin just smiled without any expression. Eunuch Gao and Yuan Tiangang were not sure what Li Shimin was thinking and did not dare to add fuel to the fire. This matter passed. (Refreshed in ten minutes)

Two days later, the imperial edict was sent to the Secretariat. Because the students of Hongwenguan were born into a noble family and did not specialize in professionalism, they ordered them to take the examination of the Imperial College Students' Examination and treated them equally. After the teaching of Hongwenguan increased and decreased, they were responsible for students studying in Chang'an from various countries. The collection of books was moved to Chongwenguan, Chongwenguan, and Hongwenguan, and the Imperial College Students' Education.

The decree was issued, and everyone was in an uproar.

This will is equivalent to abolishing the current Hongwenguan and turning the Hongwenguan from a "noble school" to an "international student university", with its original intention changed. The original students went to the Imperial College to study. According to the understanding of later generations, they were like they had studied well in key universities and were chased to ordinary universities.

The parents of students naturally refused to do so. On the day of the decree, more than ten memorials were presented, all of which were quoted from the scriptures and advised Li Shimin not to do this. However, all of these memorials were rejected. The reason for the refutation was only one "report card", which was a policy examination at Hongwenguan. There were more than 60 students and more than 40 nonsense articles, which truly confirmed the meaning of the decree, "The students of Hongwenguan were born as nobles and do not specialize in the profession." The meaning was expressed very clearly. It was not that I did not give face, but that your children were too trash. Staying in Hongwenguan was a waste of teaching resources.

The voices of opposition gradually subsided. Then another decree made the whole court boil.

The Ministry of War temporarily set up a "martial arts lecture hall" to be a place for soldiers to study martial arts. In the early days, 60 students were recruited, and three classes A, B and C were assigned. There were only a few words, and there was no extra explanation. After graduation, there was no explanation. Only such a "three-no product" suddenly detonated the entire Chang'an City.

Before the order was issued, there was news in Chang'an City that Li Mu, the Marquis of Luoyang, came up with a new idea. He wanted to instigate His Majesty to set up a new school. The structure of this school is modeled after the Tang Dynasty Technical School in Xiaoyao Valley, but it is actually a military school, aiming to cultivate the next generation of military talents of the Tang Dynasty.

When the news came out, many people disagreed. The Tang Dynasty used its military power, even civil officials, such as Changsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling, they all joined the army in the initially. Who doesn’t know that the real generals were not taught, but fought. If a school trains generals, it may not have practical effects like talking about war on paper.

Now seeing the order, they obviously underestimated Li Mu's position in the emperor's heart. His Majesty was obedient to what Li Mu said. But some people secretly thought, "Your Majesty is so stingy. The main reason why Your Majesty can agree to the matter of spending money in a school institution is that it is on the premise that Li Mu paid the money. Some people pay the money, of course they will not spend it in vain. As for where Li Mu's money comes from, no one has ever thought about this problem. It seems that starting from Li Mu's appearance, his money seems to be continuous. When have you heard that he is short of money? Have you ever had such a time?

Although they are not optimistic about the prospects of this "martial arts hall", it does not hinder their enthusiasm. Because according to reliable information, although this martial arts hall is under the guise of "a place where soldiers study martial arts", it is actually a place to "study with the prince". Just like Chongwenguan, the prince is studying in Chongwenguan and the prince is all the sons of important officials of the third rank or above. Why do they do this? First, to show favor, and secondly, to cultivate a team for the prince. For the emperor, his important officials can be trusted, and their sons can naturally be trusted, so that the prince can seize power can be avoided.

However, the Chongwenguan's accompanying school is too harsh. The eldest son of an official above the third rank has been deleted, and most of the people cannot be just a status. You have to be a "school master". Otherwise, if a idle person approaches the prince and leads the prince, who will bear the responsibility?

Because of these restrictions, most of the students who can enter Chongwenguan are children of civil servants. Many military generals who accompanied Li Shimin to conquer the world, such as Cheng Yaojin, had no chance to study in Chongwenguan in this life.

Now that there is a "martial arts lecture hall", the situation is different. It gives military generals a chance. My son can't study, but he can fight. Don't forget that the old saying goes, literati are inferior to each other, and martial artists value righteousness. How can the feelings of studying together be true when carrying a gun together?

The decree is clearly stated. The martial arts lecture hall was organized by the Ministry of War. The Minister of War was Hou Junji, so he naturally came to find him. Everyone was from the Qin Palace and was all in the Ministry of War. They usually called brothers and scolded them on the battlefield, and they didn't respect them much. Although Hou Junji is now the Minister of War, few people take him too seriously. Take Cheng Yaojin as an example. He never took Hou Junji seriously. Cheng Yaojin always felt that Hou Junji's Minister of War was not a skill. Whether it was qualifications or military merits, he could only be considered average.

But for his son, he still came to give gifts. He just felt awkward and was struggling for a while. In just a while, he couldn't even get into the alley, and the line was already full of lines in front.

Cheng Yaojin leaned out to take a look, put down the curtain, and muttered, "Who are these people? They use people first, not behind them. When drinking, I don't know who said that Hou Junji flattered and wanted credit, and his reputation was not true... Now, I'm using them, and I'm here to give gifts, and I'm really a villain."

The coachman was a veteran of Cheng Yaojin's tent. Hearing this, he pursed his lips hard, afraid that he could not help laughing out loud.

Isn't this just yourself? Every time I drink with the generals, the first person who talks about General Hou is your General Cheng? The day before yesterday, I heard you and Duke E yelling that the Minister of War can be regarded as a person, and even a dog can be regarded as a dog. I also said that the contributions in the Western Regions were all due to your nephew Li Mu. Someone just led his troops around and did nothing and made merit. There was no need for a general to do this job, and the veteran in your account could do it.

Why do you seem to have nothing to do with you today, and it has become what others say?

Cheng Yaojin sat for a while, but when he saw the carriage not moving, he felt increasingly irritable, and began to doubt himself, muttering to himself: "I thought that I, Cheng Yingxiong, had ended up in this place in my lifetime, and all came to give gifts to Hou Junji. How could I do this? A great humiliation, a great humiliation!"

Cheng Yaojin became more and more upset the more he said. Finally, he gritted his teeth and said, "Turn around, go, give him a gift? He is worthy!"

The coachman responded, Cheng Yaojin held his arms and sulked. After waiting for a while, the carriage was still moving. Cheng Yaojin was furious and lifted the curtain and scolded: "You fool, you can't walk forward, you can't turn around and go backward? Why, I'm old, can't even drive a car?"

The coachman smiled bitterly: "General, the back is blocked."

"Clog behind the scenes-" Cheng Yaojin looked back and saw the whole street full of carriages. By chance, he saw Fang Xuanling who lifted the curtain and looked forward. The two of them looked at each other, which was very awkward.

"The house is here too."

"Are you here too?"

"well--"

"well--"

In terms of status, the two were not under Hou Junji, but now they gather here. After all, isn't it for the sake of the children?

...

Outside the Tai Chi Palace, a little eunuch whispered a few words to Eunuch Gao. Eunuch Gao waved his hand, and the eunuch quietly retreated. Eunuch Gao gently pushed open the hall door and looked inside. Li Shimin and Li Mu were squatting on a huge map and studying something. Waiting for the two of them to speak, Eunuch Gao entered and came behind Li Shimin and said, "Your Majesty, as you expected, all the civil and military officials in the court have all gone to the Hou General's Mansion, and even Fang Xiang and General Cheng have gone."

Li Shimin whispered at Li Mu, Li Mu smiled and said everything was silent.

In fact, everyone knows that the root cause of this matter is not Hou Junji. It is more effective to look for Li Shimin or Li Mu directly than to look for Hou Junji. However, they cannot do that.

How to find it? Looking for Li Shimin directly? Wouldn't that be like saying directly, Your Majesty, my son is not a talented person. Look at my old face and give my son a face to enter the martial arts lecture hall. Who is shameless who can speak in front of Li Shimin? Even if he is shameless, who is willing to admit that his son is not a talented person?

It is even worse to find Li Mu. Who is Li Mu? Who doesn’t know who he is. He will do a loss-making business? If you ask him for help, will he help? He will go to Luoyang immediately. It’s better to have less than more things, and it involves such a sensitive matter in military affairs. Even if he helps, the price will never be small. Moreover, it will be marked as close to this person and Li Mu when it comes to the ears of His Majesty, and it will be a disaster in the future.

Therefore, neither Li Shimin nor Li Mu could look for these people. They could only follow the guidance of the decree and go to Hou Junji. But the problem is that Hou Junji is not a fool. How can Hou Junji know the intention of naming the "Ministry of War" in the imperial edict? If he really accepts gifts and does things, what would Li Shimin think of him? Is it important to be the little money in front of him or the trust of His Majesty? Hou Junji can still tell the difference in his heart.

Therefore, no matter who gives gifts, he blocks it. It’s fine if his family comes to give gifts, but many of them are like Cheng Yaojin, who come to visit the door in person. No one has a lower status than him. It’s not suitable to not meet each other, and he talks more when he meets each other. He can’t tell the face back then. Cheng Yaojin felt that the carriage was still moving, which is why.

This situation was expected by Li Shimin and Li Mu. The two of them did it on purpose, but it was not agreed upon. Li Shimin did this to see how Li Mu would do it and how Hou Jun would do it. He wanted to see who Li Mu would help so that he could know who in the court is "Li Mu's party" and he knew it. At the same time, he also wanted to see how Hou Jun's gathering was. He had received a secret report. Hou Junji was greedy for money and on the way back to Chang'an, he let the record make a fake account, and he took many treasures for himself.

This kind of thing is common. Li Shimin could not blame his general for some money without real evidence. He just wanted to know if Hou Junji was such a person.

Li Mu's idea was that someone would come to ask him for help, and anyone would ask him for help. The purpose was the same as Li Shimin guessed, making some allies. In this way, when there was something wrong in Chang'an, someone would talk to him, even to repay this favor. Therefore, no matter who gave gifts, he would block outside. It would be fine if his family came to give gifts, but many of them came to the door in person like Cheng Yaojin. No matter which status was lower than him, it was not suitable to meet him, and he would talk more when he met. He could not speak out in the past, and Cheng Yaojin felt that the carriage was still moving, which was the reason.
