I am the cook, but I am Li Er's son-in-law

Gun Gun is also happy to enjoy Li Shimin's service.

He even felt that Li Shimin's hands were clumsy and he peeled very slowly, so he waved his claws dissatisfiedly and tapped Li Shimin's body lightly.

Although Gun Gun restrained his strength, it was a bear after all, and it made Li Shimin shake, and the surrounding guards were terrified, fearing that if Gun Gun didn't pay attention, he would overturn Li Shimin.

After Li Shimin finished feeding the plate, he only ate two or three, and the rest went into his rolling stomach.

Rolling glanced at the plate, it was empty, immediately shut his mouth and refused to recognize anyone, turned around, turned his butt towards Li Shimin, and gnawed on the bamboo.

Li Shimin raised his eyebrows, kicked and rolled lightly: "You little heartless."

Roll back and give Li Shimin a face of bamboo leaves as a gift.

One man and one beast started fighting.

After a while, Li Shimin turned his head and glanced, the tables of the guests were all full, and Liu Jingxian didn't accept the guests any more, which made him stunned for a moment.

It seems that there are no new guests for the time being, why Yin Xuan hasn't come out yet.

He thought so, and when he turned around, he was taken aback—Yin Xuan just stood behind him silently, without saying a word, and he didn't know how long he had been standing there.

"When did you come out?" Li Shimin was so frightened that his voice was a little distorted, he bumped into Gun Gun's body, Gun Gun was choked, and pushed Li Shimin out again.

Yin Xuan remained expressionless: "It's been since you fed the chestnuts to Gun Gun."

Li Shimin patted his chest, calmed himself down, and said angrily: "You are so scary, okay?"

"It's interesting to see you serving Gun Gun, so I can't bear to disturb you." Yin Xuan waved his hand and said indifferently, "Although you are a bit stupid, Gun Gun still enjoys it."

"Why don't you tell your old age and return to your hometown, and come here to serve Gun Gun, I can allow you to eat for nothing."

Li Shimin widened his eyes and looked at Yin Xuan in surprise.

You kid knows my identity!
Although it's not clear.

You asked an emperor to return to his hometown to serve a rolling?Although it is indeed cute, it is still slightly inferior to the throne.

It took Li Shimin a while to realize, oh... this should be a joke with himself.

Very Yin Xuan's style.

Yin Xuan rolled his eyes, seeing Li Shimin's suddenly serious face, he knew that he was thinking about it again, waved his hand impatiently, and asked, "What are you going to eat today?"

Li Shimin waved his hand: "Don't be in a hurry to eat..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Yin Xuan's exclamation: "The sun is rising from the west today, and you actually said that you are not in a hurry to eat?"

Li Shimin's face darkened: "Go, do I look like a foodie?"

"Why bother me again?" Yin Xuan chuckled and changed the subject abruptly.

Li Shimin stretched out his hand towards the backyard: "This is not a place to talk, let's go to the backyard."

To the backyard?

Yin Xuan was a little surprised, this style of doing things was not at all like Li Shimin - that is, when he said that he wanted to fight Goguryeo, he said it openly in the restaurant.

Careful now, go in the backyard?
It must be such a shameful thing, ah bah, it must be such a big deal.

Yin Xuan followed him to the backyard.

Gun Gun also came in, grabbing the bamboo shoots and gnawing on them.

Li Shimin glanced at him, paused for a moment, and then said, "Isn't it almost the imperial examination..."

Yin Xuan interrupted him again: "There is still nearly a year left."

The words in Li Shimin's mouth stopped abruptly, and he glanced at Yin Xuan angrily.

Can you let him finish his sentence when he is so serious now!Although what he said just now is indeed a small problem, but as an introduction, this sentence is not important at all, okay?

"Listen to me, don't interrupt." Li Shimin sighed.

He sorted out his emotions, and then said again: "It's not about the imperial examination...forget it." Yin Xuan's words just now hooked his full stomach to time.

As soon as he mentioned this sentence, he thought that there was still nearly a year before the imperial examination.

I can't even say this sentence.

Li Shimin took a deep breath: "Let's not talk about this, yesterday in the hall, His Majesty arranged something for us to write an article about scholars."

Yin Xuan nodded.

Li Shimin continued: "Now the territory of the Tang Dynasty is still expanding, and the talents selected by the imperial examination are still useful, but when the territory of the Tang Dynasty is fixed, what should we do if the talents selected by the imperial examination overflow?"

"That is the kind of article His Majesty wants us to write."

"From last night to today, I have thought about it, and I have a few ideas, but I can't figure it out, so I tell you, can you come and help me?"

Yin Xuan nodded thoughtfully again.

Li Shimin's face froze, and he gently pushed Yin Xuan: "You are talking."

"Didn't you tell me not to interrupt?" Yin Xuan glanced at him, very strangely, with an innocent look on his face.

Li Shimin slapped his head.

He was at a loss what to do with Yin Xuan, he sighed softly, and continued to speak helplessly: "I have an idea at the moment."

"Look, the Kong family is not working and studying?"

"Although the current public schools are only piloted in a few places in Chang'an, the cost is high, but it is barely within the range of the court."

The cost of public schools... is several times higher than what Li Shimin and Kong Yingda thought before. It is precisely because of this that Li Shimin only opened public schools in Chang'an and Luoyang, the two most prosperous places in the Tang Dynasty.

The number of public schools in Luoyang is not even half of that in Chang'an.

They all share the same school in several villages, and the children have to walk several miles of mountain roads to study.

"Now that the imperial court has another piece of land in Goguryeo, and the commercial routes in Anxi are becoming more and more prosperous, the imperial court is not short of money now."

For Datang today, it is in a situation of being supported by the whole world.

The iron ore and timber used in basic industries such as Datang, as well as the food needed to feed the population of Datang, were all sold from various countries.

And what Tang needs to provide is nothing more than copper coins—even copper coins are not used, those merchants only recognize Yin Xuan's banknotes anyway, and let Yin Xuan print the banknotes.

With money, Li Shimin has a lot of confidence.

"So I think, can we go further on the basis of public schools?"

Yin Xuan nodded his head lightly: "Go further?"

Li Shimin nodded: "Yes, public schools don't only last for six years. According to what you said, aren't those all basic education?"

"I think it should be on top of it and get an advanced education."

"For example, if the elementary school that children study is now called elementary school, then... if we go one step further, it will be called middle school?"
