Zhong Lin suspected that he had heard it wrong, and the favorites around the empress actually asked him if he was interested in teaching.
How can he be a teacher like a big-hearted and rude man?
However, Zhou Huaijin quickly explained to him that what the empress wanted him to teach was not books, but to pass on his experience in the battlefield to those recruits who will receive military education in school, so as to train a new generation of officers general.
It has to be said that the proposal of the two really reached Zhong Lin's heart.
He also worried about Dasheng's situation after his soul returned to the west, but he was helpless because of his old age. If he went to the school supervisor to teach, he could still take advantage of these days to pass on his martial arts and strategies, and personally select outstanding soldiers for Dasheng.
Seeing his hesitation, Li Zichou knew that he was tempted.
"General Zhong can make a choice according to his own wishes, I will not force you." Li Zichou drank the tea in his teacup, "I will not take back your military power, if you are willing to teach, who will take on the mission of guarding the northwest ,You decide."
Zhong Lin looked at the empress in shock for a moment, this... this means that he can appoint a general to take over the military affairs of guarding the northwest? !
"Is what the queen said true?"
"I keep my word. Of course, those who are selected have to go through the court's test." Li Zishou replied affirmatively, "General, don't worry, whether you are willing to go to the military academy or not, the Northwest Garrison is still under your command. Regardless of your status Where is it, once there is a war in the northwest, General Zhong can go to the front line by himself."
"..."
"You can go back and think about it slowly, Huai Jin, you can also go and give it away."
"promise."
Unexpectedly, Zhong Lin straightened up, staring at her with tiger-like eyes: "Your Majesty, you are very different from before."
Who doesn't know that the little princess of Emperor Jing's family is pampered and domineering. After she was named the crown prince, Zhong Lin never took a fancy to this queen.
The topic changed so quickly that Li Zichou couldn't react.
After a while, she replied: "Old General Zhong has heard the story of a blockbuster."
Zhong Lin was taken aback for a moment, then knelt down, showing his own respect for the first time: "Then the old minister is willing to serve as the supervisor of the school, and select the best generals for Dasheng."
Li Zichou finally showed his first relieved smile today: "I believe in General Zhong."
"The old minister will definitely live up to the trust of the Tian Family!"
//
The military talismans of several idle officials have already been handed in, and I believe it will not be long before this news will reach the ears of other courtiers.
That's good too, just to let them know that Li Zichou has an army now. Those who are convinced and not convinced should accept their petty thoughts.
It was getting dark, Bai Qingyang drove from Yuheng Palace to Li Zichou's bedroom.
"Kuuuuuuuuuu!" A sword was slanted in front of Bai Qingyang.
Xiao Le was startled: "Who?"
Bai Qingyang acted calmly: "General Chen Feng."
The man was dressed in a black half-arm suit, wearing a hooded head, and holding an antique Taotie pattern ring head knife, standing in front of Bai Qingyang and Xiao Le, this man was none other than Chen Feng.
In addition to supervising Li Zishou's training on a daily basis, he and his sister also served as the emperor's guards. He is in the open, and she is in the dark. At present, he is not part of the imperial army's establishment, and is equivalent to the personal bodyguard hired by Li Zichou.
In summer, it is dark and late, and it is not yet time to light the lights, but the setting sun is setting, so it is really not bright here.
Chen Feng saw clearly that it was Bai Qingyang's visit, so he withdrew his hands and gave a military officer's salute: "Your Majesty, please forgive me. Your Majesty won't have evening class today, so your Majesty just ran away."
"She never told Ben Gong." Bai Qingyang narrowed his eyes.
"Your Majesty is working so hard today, I'm afraid I haven't had time to tell the empress."
She came to report secretly, of course she knew what Li Zichou had done and why he was so tired.
Facing this master, Chen Feng only felt a little headache.
The empress just drove away the palace servants in the palace, saying that she should be kept clean, and no one was allowed to enter. Who knew that the queen would actually come, and she didn't say whether she should let it in or not.
Damn Chen Feng, he knew he was watching a show on the roof, and he didn't come down to help!
Bai Qingyang didn't intend to leave, so Chen Feng could only bite the bullet and say, "Your Majesty said she didn't see anyone."
"I have something important to discuss with you."
"..."
"General Chen?"
Chen Feng finally compromised and silently stepped aside.
Bai Qingyang went straight into the hall, leaving Xiao Le at the entrance of the hall.
Warm yellow candlelight was burning on the gold-plated lampstand, wood incense was burning in the three-legged copper furnace, and there was no one in the hall.
Bai Qingyang was not surprised, and turned to the study.
Bai Qingyang said that she would share the duties of Zhou Huaijin and Li Xunxuan's tutors, and she did go to the Ganlu Hall a few times, sometimes meeting Zhou Huaijin to give lectures on political history, and sometimes meeting Li Xunchang to popularize mountains and rivers geography.
I can't tell what's wrong, anyway, Zhou Huaijin and Li Xunchao think it's quite subtle.
As for Li Zichou, he was a little restless, he always felt that he was in an open class, and Bai Qingyang was the head teacher sitting at the back of the classroom.
The layout of the imperial study is still the same as before, the difference is that there are many memorials piled up on the Pear Blossom Table, some piled up in a pile, and some scattered beside it.
Where is Li Fu?
As soon as Bai Qingyang's doubts arose, he heard the beaded curtain collide behind him, and someone came in.
Li Zichou obviously didn't expect someone to be there, so he froze in place for a moment.
Bai Qingyang looked back.
She should have just bathed, and she was covered with a layer of dark red cloud-pattern gauze, with a snow-white silk tunic underneath.
Her jet-black hair was still dripping with water, and Li Zichou was holding a velvet handkerchief in his hand, trying to dry it off.
It was the first time for Bai Qingyang to see Li Zichou in such a relaxed state, but she respectfully paid her respects as usual: "My concubine sees Your Majesty."
Li Zichou was a little surprised and embarrassed, she gathered the gauze dress and **** the belt around her waist: "I'm sorry, I let the queen see such an inappropriate Zhen."
Bai Qingyang shook his head: "It was the concubine who entered the palace without authorization and disturbed His Majesty."
"That... empress, wait a moment, I will come as soon as I go." After saying that, Li Zishou ran away again.
When Li Zichou came back, his hair was twisted and half-dried, without any gold or silver decorations, it was combed meticulously, and the strands of hair were clearly defined.
Changing into a loose long robe and summer clothes, she looked more like a lazy, ordinary woman than a queen who ruled the world.
"I forgot to send someone to notify the queen. Today's evening class has been cancelled." Li Zichou went around and sat down behind the pear blossom table, and raised his hand to signal Bai Qingyang to sit down too.
Bai Qingyang nodded when he heard the words, and sat not far away from Li Zichou, a position where he could just see Li Zichou sketching the memorial.
Li Zichou was silent for a while.
"that…"
"that…"
The two spoke in unison, and both of them froze for a moment.
Li Zichou: "The queen will speak first."
Bai Qingyang smiled lightly, thinking that he had usurped power and killed someone before, so he felt a little reserved when facing this person?
She took out a piece of cotton paper folded squarely from her wide sleeve, and handed it to Li Zichou.
Li Zichou unfolded the paper, roughly read the content on it, and then looked at Bai Qingyang in a little surprise: "Empress, this is?"
"I heard that His Majesty is building a school," Bai Qingyang nodded, "I hope I can help Your Majesty."
Li Zishou and her stared at each other for a moment, then carefully looked at the list of people's names and their places of origin.
Some are officials, and some are unknown civilians.
These should be the outstanding people in Bai Qingyang's fancy, and they will be Bai Qingyang's huge think tank in the future.
Li Zishou didn't understand, why did she give it to herself?
Bai Qingyang's thinking was actually very simple, she gave her all the people who were useful to Li Zifu, to see how far she could go and how high she could fly.
She is different now, she treats herself with humility and courtesy, so Bai Qingyang naturally has no reason to take her life again.
But Bai Qingyang also kept a hand of cards, she kept it in the hidden stake in front of the harem, just in case of emergencies.
As for seizing power... Bai Qingyang's eyes darkened when he thought of this.
That wasn't a good memory. With her mother in this life, and things going well, it was hard for her to ask for anything more... She didn't want to fight any more, she just wanted to live a peaceful and peaceful life, and that was enough.
After reading it, Li Zichou carefully closed it. Bai Qingyang's list surprised her very much.
With these people, not only the military academy, but also the construction of agricultural colleges and management colleges can be put on the agenda as soon as possible, and Dasheng's educational mechanism will have the opportunity to be improved to a higher level.
Bai Qingyang expected that she would not refuse. Ever since she pulled her out of the Xuanzheng Hall that day, the two of them seemed to have reached a wonderful tacit understanding. Although they still felt awkward when they were alone, it was much more natural than before.
Sure enough, Li Zichou did not pretend to be a gesture, she thanked slowly: "Thank you, Queen."
She really needs these people, so she is also very straightforward.
Bai Qingyang watched her carefully put away the paper, when Li Zichou suddenly talked about what happened in Baoyue Pavilion today.
Bai Qingyang knew about it a long time ago, but it didn't prevent her from listening to her say it again.
"Zhong Lin really...confronted him, and I almost lost." Li Zichou sighed, "It's really tough."
Bai Qingyang: "Why doesn't Your Majesty take strong measures to take away the military power of the General Fuguo?"
Although she thinks that Li Zishou's approach is the most brilliant.
Li Zichou shook his head: "If you don't have the right way, you are destined to die. Although you are the lord of a country, you must not abuse your power. In the relationship between monarch and minister, peace should be the most important thing." This is what Zhou Huaijin taught her.
Zhong Lin's biggest problem is actually that he is not satisfied with Li Zizhi as a woman. He is a power supremacist and only obeys the people he himself approves of.
Li Zishou must let him know that not only a man can be a good emperor, but also a woman, and even better.
If he could see Li Zishou's strength, Zhong Lin would definitely be convinced. The general of the auxiliary country is full of blood and loyalty, and he will definitely do his best to assist the monarch he recognizes.
So don't look at Zhong Lin's seeming to give in now, it's just a temporary obedience after reaping the benefits.
To get his affirmation, Li Zichu still needs to work hard.
In fact, there is another reason why Li Zishou values him: he doesn't respect himself. But that day in the court hall, he did not follow the crowd blindly, and came together with those courtiers to persecute him.
He knows what is important and what is important, has his own judgment, and has a clear mind.
This person can handle it.
Li Zichou took a sip from the blue and white porcelain teacup next to the case, and then said: "What's more, Old General Zhong is one of the most loyal courtiers of Dasheng, and I can't let his heart be chilled."
When Bai Qingyang heard this, there was admiration in his eyes, but the words he said were full of murderous intentions, "Your Majesty is wise, and my concubine admires you very much. You are no longer like the old days, who like to use force wantonly."
"Pfft—!" Li Zichou looked at the memorial that was wet in front of him, "cough...cough cough fold...explanation...Prime Minister Liang's excerpt..."
I don't know why, but Bai Qingyang's words reminded Li Zichou of the day when he first wore it, it was the scene where the original body wanted the overlord to forcefully bow to the heroine.
Bai Qingyang, don't you mean her...
That's not what she did! She, Li Zishou, is innocent!
The author has something to say:
Bai Qingyang: You like to be tough, right?
Yang Dejin: She can always force love.
Li Zishou: Listen to my sophistry...
