After getting Liu Qi's promise, Li Ru's state became obviously much more relaxed, and the stone in his heart was completely relieved.

When he was under Wang Yun, Li Ru lived in fear, walking on thin ice every day, and was extremely distressed. At the slightest sign of trouble, he would be frightened like a frightened antelope, raising his head and looking around in the southeast, northwest, fearing that his life might be threatened at any time.

People take it away.

To put it bluntly, even if Wang Yun farted slightly louder, Li Ru would be frightened to death.

Only now is he finally free.

Li Ru, who was free of the shackles of his soul, was no longer so trembling. He talked more in front of Liu Qi and Jia Xu. He was originally a talkative person, and he used to be a doctor of the Five Classics. He was the best at talking, and he and Liu Qi were far away from each other.

Talked about mountains.

"Your Majesty, Wen He Gong, and the Qie Mo Kingdom will pay tribute to my great Han Dynasty every year, the grape wine made from the ripe grapes in the autumn of previous years. Have you ever tasted it?"

"Never drank."

"Hey, I drank!"

"During the Yongping period, Emperor Xiaoming dreamed of eating melons, which were very beautiful. Dunhuang County presented an exotic melon species to the emperor. It was named Qionglong, oval in shape, with smooth skin, grooved markings on the surface, and white-yellow flesh, sweet and sweet..."

"You're talking about cantaloupe, right? I've eaten it."

"What cantaloupe, that's called Qionglong! Say it after me...Qionglong~~, Junhou, have you ever eaten it?"

"Uh... I've never eaten anything in my life."

"Haha, you can really joke... By the way, do you have the best kind of Khotan's beautiful jade?"

"No."

"I have several pieces, and I will give them to you later."

After chattering for a while, Liu Qi didn't say anything. Jia Xu beside him couldn't stand it anymore.

This Li Wenyou... I really didn't realize it at first. Isn't he obviously a talkative person?

Forget about being a talkative person, why are you still bragging to the former general?

Is this how the doctors of the Five Classics of Han Dynasty usually teach their students?

No wonder, over the past few decades, one after another Taipei students have failed to make progress.

Jia Xu reached out and patted Li Ru's shoulder and asked, "Are you okay?"

Li Ru raised his eyebrows slightly: "No."

"Isn't that right? I remember you just said you had something to do."

Li Ru was a smart man, and he knew what Jia Xu wanted to do just by looking at his expression.

He coughed lightly, stood up, folded his hands and bowed to Liu Qi: "The king is busy with his affairs, so the junior officials will not disturb him too much."

Liu Qi's expression was very friendly: "It's okay, don't bother me. Wenyou is well-informed and knowledgeable. He deserves to be a genius and a wonderful person in the world."

Li Ru waved his hands in shame.

He followed Jia Xu out of Liu Qi's handsome tent, and Jia Xu glanced at him sideways.

"I still don't know you very well. I've never seen you talk so much and be so friendly."

"I am very excited to see the British Lord, so I talk more."

Jia Xu laughed and said unhurriedly: "You must have heard some of the conversation I had with the prince in the tent just now, right? That's why you acted like this."

Li Ru was not nervous when Jia Xu revealed what was on his mind. After all, it was not a shameful thing for Jia Xu to reveal his feelings.

"Jia Gong, I was in the tent just now. The prince blamed you for not protecting the emperor in Luoyang... Could it be that your actions in Luoyang were really done by you alone without the prince's prior authorization?"

Jia Xu said unhurriedly: "It is true that the prince has never given instructions to me."

"Then why are you still acting like this in Luoyang? Aren't you afraid that the prince will blame you when he knows the truth?"

Jia Xu looked up at the sky, pretending to be stupid, and did not answer him.

Li Ru said to himself: "The king knows his ministers, and his ministers know the king, right?"

Jia Xu didn't answer and asked instead: "Does Wen You think that the emperor is doing great things and it is inevitable that the king will ascend the throne this time, so he just keeps trying to have a relationship with him?"

Li Ru chuckled and did not deny it.

He looked around, and then asked Jia Xu in a low voice: "Wenhe, do you think Junhou has the possibility of... going further?"

Jia Xu raised his head and looked at the sky: "Whether the monarch can take this step, the key depends on two people."

Li Ru stroked his beard and said thoughtfully: "A key figure is naturally Taishi Liu... who is the other one?"

Jia Xu didn't speak, he just subconsciously looked to the southwest.

…

Yuexun County, Panzhi.

It's early morning again.

In the newly built school palace in Panzhi, under a large locust tree, more than a hundred children sat in rows in the courtyard, quietly looking at the old lecturer in front of them, and listened carefully to his reading loudly, in complete silence.

Those little faces are full of earnestness and seriousness.

Right in front of the children, Liu Biao held a ruler and a slip of paper, leading his children to read aloud sentence by sentence.

"The sky and the earth are dark and yellow, the universe is primitive"

"The sun and moon are full, and the stars and constellations are arranged."

“Cold comes and summer comes, autumn harvests and winter stores.”

Liu Biao read a sentence, and a group of children below followed him.

Yuexun County is in the middle of Shu, and it used to be a border county. As far as the economic area centered on Mianzhu, Chengdu, and Luocheng is concerned, it is still a bit barbaric. Compared with the Central Plains area of ​​the Han Dynasty, it is even worse.

I don't know how far it is.

But now, the Jingzhou Liu Group is paying more attention to the construction of the school palace and elementary school education in Yuexi than other places, and has invested more funds and goods.

The fundamental reason is that the iron ore in Yuexun County is currently being exploited vigorously.

Since iron ore is to be mined, Liu's control over Yuexun County will inevitably increase. There is no doubt that the significance of iron in this era is the same as that of oil in later generations.

In less than ten years, the area near Yuexun County will inevitably become an important resource supply center for the Han Dynasty and a major economic center in Yizhou.

For such important towns, it is natural to increase central control.

In addition to necessary policies, cultural penetration is also an effective means to strengthen regional control.

After all, in addition to Han people, there are also many barbarians in Yuexun County.

In the academic palaces established throughout Yuexun County, Liu Biao also took the initiative to serve as a lecturer on elementary education, contributing his own strength to the academic development of Yuexun County.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Now, more than a hundred children in Panzhi are learning Liu's New Elementary School under his guidance.

Compared with being the dominant Jingzhou Mu, Liu Biao enjoys his current position as a lecturer more.

"Women admire chastity, men admire virtue..."

When Liu Biao read this, he suddenly saw a naughty child among these children lying on the table and sleeping soundly.

Liu Biao's eyes narrowed, and while he continued to read, he walked towards the naughty kid in small steps.

When the naughty boy's classmates saw Liu Biao walking towards him, they wanted to remind the naughty boy loudly. However, Liu Biao usually taught very harshly, and the naughty boys were generally afraid of him, so they did not dare to speak loudly.

Only a little girl next to the naughty kid reached out and tugged on his clothes, but quickly took her hand back.

Liu Biao walked up to the child, who happened to be woken up by his deskmate beside him. He raised his head in a daze and met Liu Biao's face.

The naughty boy was so frightened that he suddenly woke up.

"Stretch out your hand." Liu Biao's tone was low but stern.

The naughty boy cautiously stretched out his hand.

Liu Biao was so merciless that he quickly dropped the ruler in his hand. With a 'pop' sound, the naughty boy's tears quickly fell down, and a red mark appeared in his palm.

"Why do you want to sleep so much?" Liu Biao continued to lift the ruler and slapped it again with a 'snap' sound.

The naughty boy's tears were falling down his face. He was sobbing and said: "My father suffered from back pain last night. He couldn't get out of bed and couldn't eat. He was suffering from pain all day long... I stayed with him.

Together, my mother and I took turns rubbing my father all night..."

Liu Biao was about to strike down the ruler again. After hearing this, he saw that the ruler stopped in mid-air and could not be struck down.

He looked ahead indifferently, recalling the past unknowingly in his mind...

I remember that in the year before his wife Chen passed away, Liu Biao, who was still a party member and was not qualified to be an official, was at home, and at that time, he personally took care of Chen's food and daily life.

Looking back now, it was really a difficult time. He struggled to hold on every day, and the person who accompanied him to take care of his wife at that time... there was also a half-grown figure. Although he was still young, he was

He was extremely filial, accompanying his father every day to serve Mr. Chen tea and water, feed her and wipe her sweat.

Liu Biao had to drive his eldest son to study scriptures almost every day. When he was anxious, he would even scold him and kick him.

But even if the eldest son was scolded or beaten, he still smiled and never spoke back. Although he did not resist, he was stubborn and insisted on staying up late every day after feeding his mother with Liu Biao.

read.

The situation back then seemed like just yesterday... Times have changed and everything has changed.

Mr. Chen passed away after all. He became an official again and became a shepherd. Now he is free to teach. And that sensible eldest son is now...

"Sir~!"

A weak voice brought Liu Biao back to reality.

Liu Biao lowered his head and looked at the naughty kid whose hands had been beaten red because of two strokes of the ruler. There were also two lines of tears hanging on his face. This third stroke of the board did not fall down.
