"Bang~" Li Xiu had just said that he wanted to accept Di Renjie as a student. Di Zhixun next to him also shook his hands excitedly. As a result, the tea cup was not held firmly and fell on the tea table. The tea water scattered all over the floor, which made him very embarrassed, "Duke forgive me, I'm rude!"

"Di is polite. I like Renjie very much, so I want to accept him as a student. I wonder what you think?" Li Xiu was just caring about Di Renjie, and then he remembered that he should ask Di Zhixun for his opinion first.

"It is also his blessing to the Duke of the State to accept children as his students, so he naturally cannot ask for it!" Di Zhixun spoke almost without hesitation. As Li Xiu's identity, being able to fall in love with his son was like a pie from the sky. He even now doubts whether he is dreaming.

"Although I had just met Renjie, from my perspective, he would definitely not be a member of the pool in the future. Di Zhanjun gave birth to a good son. His achievements in the future will not even be inferior to Di Zuocheng!" Li Xiu praised Di Renjie again at this time. Shangshu Zuocheng was actually the deputy secretary of Shangshuling, equivalent to the deputy prime minister, while Di Renjie was a real prime minister, especially in Wu Zetian's later years, he persuaded the other party to make Li Xian the crown prince, which saved the Li family of the Tang Dynasty.

Di Zhixun was also very happy when he heard Li Xiu praise his son like this. His father was appointed as the Minister of Shangshu Zuo Cheng, a senior official of the fourth rank. The Di family was also prominent at the time. Unfortunately, he and his brothers did not have particularly outstanding talents. He was considered a better brother, but he was just a small army member. The Di family seemed a little declining because of this. However, he did not expect that his son would be praised by Li Xiu. It seems that the work of the Di family's Zhongxing would fall on his son in the future.

Although Di Renjie was extremely intelligent, he was still young after all. Especially when he heard that Li Xiu wanted to accept him as a student, he didn't know how to react for a while. He could only stare at his father blankly. Until Di Zhixun reminded him, he saluted Li Xiu and said, "Thank you, Duke Renjie is willing to worship you as his teacher!"

"What's the name of Duke? Let's call me sir in the future!" Li Xiu laughed loudly when he saw Di Renjie agreeing.

"You must never do it. You must not be so hasty about getting a disciple. At least you must prepare the ceremony of apprenticeship!" Di Zhixun interrupted at this time. Li Xiu was not bound by etiquette, but their Di family was a scholarly family of generations and valued etiquette the most. Before he formally got a disciple, Di Renjie did not dare to change his words to call Li Xiu a gentleman.

Li Xiu also knew that people like the Di family valued etiquette the most, so he didn't force it. At that moment, he chatted with Di Zhixun for a few more words, and by the way, he also helped Di Renjie answer the question he asked just now. Of course, the sun was closer to people at noon, but because the sun was too far from the earth, the distance was almost negligible. By the way, Li Xiu also popularized Di Renjie's knowledge of the solar system, which made Di Renjie look furious. Di Zhixun next to him was even more stunned. He lived in his thirties and was the first time he knew the true face of this world.

It was not until dark that Li Xiu stood up to see the Di family and his son leave. At this time, there were still many people visiting outside the door, some of whom even waited for a long time. At this time, he saw Di Zhixun who had been in for a long time and was sent out by Li Xiu himself, and many people even dropped their chins.

Two days later, Di Zhixun brought Di Renjie to the door again. This time he also brought the apprenticeship ceremony, which was actually ten pieces of bacon. This was the apprenticeship ceremony set by Confucius himself. Li Xiu also called all his students and held a apprenticeship ceremony at home. When the apprenticeship ended, Di Renjie finally became Li Xiu's student, but the Chinese New Year was about to celebrate, so Di Renjie would teach Li Xiu's class after the New Year.

"Why did sir accept another student? Is this Di Renjie very outstanding?" After Di Renjie and his son left, Wu Mingkong tilted his head and asked Li Xiu. Li Xiu had not accepted students for a long time, and with Li Jin and Ping Anlang, Wang Fangyi and others each had their own ways, the number of students in the family was less and less. Especially for male students, except for Li Xiu's son, there was only one male student, and now there was another Di Renjie.

It is also worth mentioning that Li Xiu had no time to teach students because he was too busy. Wu Mingkong happened to be old and had the best learning, so most of the children in the family were taught by her. She is also very arrogant and is more picky than Li Xiu's choice of students. This time, Li Xiu took Di Renjie and did not tell her in advance, which made her a little unhappy.

"Haha, this Di Renjie is not an ordinary child, and I even think he should not be worse than you." Li Xiu couldn't help but smile. Di Renjie in history was Wu Mingkong's good helper, but he didn't expect that Wu Mingkong would be her junior brother now.

When Wu Mingkong heard Li Xiu compare Di Renjie with him, he couldn't help but show a little interested expression and said, "Sir, really optimistic about Di Renjie?"

"Of course, he will come to his house for class next year. I will go to Liaodong again next year, so you can take care of him. If nothing unexpected happens, he should be the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty in the future!" Li Xiu couldn't help but smile mysteriously when he said the last time. Sometimes he also liked this kind of prophet feeling.

"I'm afraid that I'm bragging about being able to be the prime minister, but I'm afraid that I'm not bragging. After all, Di Renjie is only eight years old, so I'm so sure?" Wu Mingkong said skeptically when he heard Li Xiu's words. It's not that she doesn't believe Li Xiu, but that Li Xiu's words are really unbelievable.

"Haha~, you will know in the future whether you are a teacher's words are right or wrong!" Li Xiu saw that Wu Mingkong did not believe it and did not explain too much. He laughed again. Wang Fangyi continued to train his own military academy, and his outstanding performance in the military academy will definitely not be lower in the future than in history, which also gave Li Xiu greater confidence in cultivating Di Renjie.

Time passed quickly, and the new year came in a blink of an eye. When it was the Spring Festival, the entire Chang'an City was also trapped in a sea of ​​lights. Because Goguryeo was destroyed last year, Li Shimin specially ordered the construction of ten huge lanterns on Zhuque Street. As a result, the entire Zhuque Street was illuminated like daytime, and countless people were lingering on the streets.

Just after the Lantern Festival, a striking news came from the court that Crown Prince Li Chengqian was finally going to officially marry the Crown Princess.
