Zhang Qian obviously doesn't understand Li Shimin.

Li Shimin was full of surprise at this moment. A person who could speak casually was really jealous.

But obviously, Chen Zhengtai is not here about the way of poetry, which is also what satisfy Li Shimin.

After all, for Li Shimin, poetry is just a small path. A man should focus on his achievements.

Excluding these, the most important thing is that Chen Zhengtai is a modest person. He is clearly vocal, but never shows off. This is very similar to me. A humble young man will not be too bad in his nature after all.

The journey was quite bumpy, and Li Shimin didn't like to take a bus, but had to hold it in.

Finally, the carriage finally stopped, and Zhang Qian whispered: "Your Majesty, Erpigou has arrived."

"Well." Li Shimin nodded. He felt a little expectant in his heart. Erpigou... I have heard this name too many times these days, of course... this has something to do with the men in Erpigou County.

Li Shimin got off the car immediately, and at this time, the back team rushed forward to face the ministers riding horses flying locusts all over the sky.

In the distance, Chen Zhengtai, who had already heard the news, and Princess Sui'an, were coming towards him side by side.

Chen Zhengtai saluted when he met Li Shimin: "I have met my mentor."

When Li Shimin heard the word "teacher", he couldn't help but think of greetings about eating all kinds of food on weekdays.

And now...

Li Shimin couldn't help but smile bitterly, hey... Now that I'm fine, I really may not be able to eat anything.

Along the way, everything was bare, and countless locusts were flying all over the sky. Not to mention food, even the bark was afraid that they would not have to eat.

Chen Zhengtai bowed and kept the gesture of saluting.

Li Shimin slowly stepped forward a few steps, and from the corner of his eyes he saw Princess Sui'an. His daughter was hanging out with Chen Zhengtai, in front of the ministers... it seemed something was wrong.

However, in this era, there is nothing to be taboo, such as royalty or women, and there are so many things that everyone thinks are not seen.

Li Shimin stopped in front of Chen Zhengtai. Suddenly, he took off the cloak behind him, then put the cloak on Chen Zhengtai, and said with great emotion: "Zhengtai, thank you for your hard work."

Chen Zhengtai hurriedly said: "Students are not working hard."

I said to myself, on this hot day... I put on a cloak, and my mentor really needs to make something to promote at all times.

Of course, Chen Zhengtai also believed that Li Shimin was sincere at this moment.

Li Shimin looked up and saw that there were disaster victims gathered everywhere on the barren land, and groups of ragged people were constantly talking. Around them, there were sounds of howling from time to time. Under the sky, there was an indescribable desolation.

He sighed: "Is Erpigou's grain enough?"

Chen Zhengtai said: "Your Majesty, Erpigou still has 34,000 stones of grain, which is enough to continue to deal with it."

Li Shimin nodded and couldn't help but sigh, 34,000 stones, and he smiled bitterly: "I want to tell you that all the food donated by civil and military ministers is less than 10% of yours."

As soon as these words came out, apart from the buzzing sound of the locusts flapping their wings, it was quiet and terrible here.

Changsun Wuji and others looked at Chen Zhengtai, feeling disgusted.

Originally, everyone is eighty or three hundred, and they are psychologically satisfied. At least they are reasonable in front of His Majesty, but now there is an alien among the ministers. The one with the surname Chen is going to kill them all.

Chen Zhengtai immediately said: "Mr., the student just bought a batch of grain by chance."

lucky……

When Li Shimin heard this, he suddenly said in his heart: "You are such a blessing to me. This luck has really helped me a lot."

Li Shimin then looked at Princess Sui'an: "You are my daughter, and you are here to provide relief to the people?"

Princess Sui'an nodded quickly: "Yes."

Li Shimin sighed again: "This is what your mother taught."

I made up my mind to go to Zhou Zhaorong's place tonight.

He did not answer any more, but led his ministers and guards toward the depths of Erpigou.

Along the way, guards had divided a road, and they saw that the desolate place could hardly even see the weeds. Countless refugees could not see the end at all. Some people came to buy food with cloth bags on their backs, and the team could not see the end like winding snakes.

Many people also carried their luggage, and seemed to have heard that there was food here, so they came here to escape the famine.

They really have no money and hope to be placed in Erpigou.

Once a person's desire to survive is aroused, it is like grabbing a life-saving straw and he will never let go if he dies.

"Why are there a long queue?" Li Shimin pointed to the distance.

Chen Zhengtai said: "Students sell grain here, and sell three kilograms at Dingkou. The prices are the original price of the market, and... no matter the value of the person coming, they only sell it at Dingkou. In this way, if there is food at home, they will naturally not come to buy it. But if the family cannot get the pot, they are willing to come here to line up."

Chen Zhengtai paused and continued: "There is another advantage to buy it according to Dingkou. When the disaster comes in previous years, it is inevitable that people will sell their children and daughters. The students are kind-hearted people and they really can't stand it. Now, when Dingkou is sold, there is a small amount of people at home, so the amount of grain purchased at a low price will be reduced. Doing so can make the people grit their teeth and persevere and spend the famine year to the greatest extent."

Li Shimin nodded repeatedly after hearing this, and said, "You are still thoughtful. I never expected that you would have such a scheming at such a young age."

The ministers followed boredly, looking bored.

It’s not that Chen Zhengtai’s move made them disgusted. To be honest, people’s hearts are full of flesh. The Chen family is willing to provide disaster relief, and everyone’s conscience is more reassuring.

But... this guy...is suspected of stealing someone's job, which makes everyone embarrassed at this time.

They couldn't help feeling sad when they heard His Majesty praise Chen Zhengtai.

But unexpectedly, Chen Zhengtai shouted at this time: "Master, you forgot that these ways of helping the world and benefiting the people are taught to students by their teachers. After listening to the lesson of "Master, they were deeply inspired. Although they only learned a little from their teachers, they still benefited a lot."

His voice was very loud, and he could tell that he hadn't drunk porridge recently, and he was very energetic.

After hearing this, everyone was stunned for a moment, and just now they cursed the foolish boy who came out from the way. At this time, many people felt a terrified. The boy named Chen... was amazing.

When Li Shimin heard this, he laughed. The light from the corner of his eyes fell on the ministers, and the smile on his face quickly swept away: "Very good, great, oh, there, what are you doing there?"

far away……

It was a group of disaster victims working, I don’t know what they were trying on, but there were still quite a few people.

Chen Zhengtai said: "My teacher, and some of the victims, are really penniless, so they have to come to Erpigou to surrender. As we all know, students are kind-hearted people, and they can't watch them starve to death. Selling grain at a fair price is to stabilize prices, and shelter refugees is forced to do it. But let them eat and drink for nothing. The students are afraid that there are cunning people who are involved in it, so they thought of a way, which is to find something for them to do."

"In this way, the idle people dare not come. Those who can come here to work are desperate people. Several of the students' relatives are now leading them to build houses, and the students... plan to take advantage of the disaster year to build schools and attract some poor families to study."

Work-for-relief... Li Shimin understood it.

However, Li Shimin did not understand much about building the school.

Some of the ministers behind him couldn't help but smile. Chen Zhengtai was really fantastic. There are only a few people who can read in the world.

Today, most of the people who can truly receive education come from the family of the officials. Although there are private schools in this era, it is more like clan studies than private schools. This is because educational resources are extremely scarce, and the children of ordinary families have read books?

Not to mention other things, how many books are there in your Chen family? How many people in this school don’t work for production? How can you bear huge expenses? And... what knowledge do you want to teach?

Today, the imperial examination and the world official system are adopted at the same time. Of course, it is easy to understand that the so-called world official is the main way for children from aristocratic families to enter the government. As for the imperial examination system, how many educational resources can these poor children get and compete with those gentry children?

Li Shimin just smiled at this. He looked at Chen Zhengtai and thought that this guy's heart was good, but some things were too taken for granted and unrealistic.
