Kong Yingda couldn't help but say, "I'm full of money!"

"What's wrong, can I just like money?" Li Mu retorted and said, "Everyone loves money, you, Kong Ci, may not be able to avoid wine, but you are always hypocritical and do not admit it! You dare to say in front of His Majesty that I, Kong Yingda, will not use money in the future, and the court will not have to give me a salary. Do you dare to say it?"

Kong Yingda's face turned red and said, "I'm not like you. I have business and business. My family and young people rely on the salary of the court to support me. How can I do without my salary?"

"Ha! Then why do you say that I'm stinky? If I love money, I'll smell it. If you love money, you'll smell it? Are the money you use different from mine? Yours are privately minted?"

Kong Yingda can't afford this pot. She privately cast copper coins. Although there are secretly plastered in the local area, this is a charge of beheading, and if you catch it, you will die. How dare Kong Yingda respond? He quickly bowed to Li Shimin and said, "Your Majesty, I can't say that Zhulu Hou, but I... I have never cast copper coins privately! Please give me a clear look!"

Of course, Li Shimin knew what kind of person Kong Yingda was. Although this old guy was a little old-fashioned and stubborn, he was like the old professor who studied knowledge in later generations. His personal character was still reliable, otherwise he would not have let Kong Yingda teach the prince.

Li Shimin also had a headache when Li Mu opened his mouth. When this kid was right, he was unreasonable, and when he ignored him, he could even argue three points. From when he entered the court, he had a fight of many big and small, and no one could take advantage of him. As the biggest troll in the Zhenguan Dynasty, Wei Zheng was also knocked down by him. Looking at the huge court, none of them was his opponent.

He is only seventeen years old!

"Okay, Li Mu! Don't bully people. You can learn whoever you like. It just so happens that Ouyang Xun is also in Chongwenguan, responsible for editing "Arts and Literature Gatherings". I ask the senior officials to tell him, if you want to learn, go and visit him if you have time."

"Thank you for your grace." Li Mu raised his eyebrows at Kong Yingda. Kong Yingda was so angry that his teeth itched and turned his head to the other side.

Seeing Li Mu's arrogant look, Li Shimin couldn't help but find something for him and said, "Li Mu, I'm asking you to study in Chongwenguan with a good intention. But when you came here, you forced Kong Aiqing to dare to teach you... Well, you are a genius, but since you are here, you can't be idle. If you don't want to be a student, then be a professor!"

“Ah?”/“Ah?”

Li Mu and Kong Yingda exclaimed at the same time, and the two looked at each other. Li Mu probably guessed what Kong Yingda was going to say, but this time he didn't snatch him, so he asked Kong Yingda to speak first.

Kong Yingda was not polite and bowed and said, "Your Majesty, you must not do this. I admit that Li Mu is talented, but his talent is not in line with... ordinary people. If he is asked to teach students, I am afraid that the students will be infected with his habits and their studies will be wasted!"

Li Mu wanted to refuse, but when he heard Kong Yingda say this, he was a little unhappy and changed his words: "Old Kong, what do you mean by saying this? Will my first genius in the Tang Dynasty teach students worse than you?"

Kong Yingda's forehead veils jumped twice, and she couldn't bear it anymore. She glared at Li Mu and said, "Who was the first genius of the Tang Dynasty? How can you be so shameless? People are more wise and you have some talent, but do you understand the principle of being a teacher? If you don't know how to be a teacher, you will teach students randomly. This is a misleading child!"

As he said that, Kong Yingda looked back at the confused students and said, "Look at the students here, besides the princes, they are the sons of nobles. If there is a deviation, can you afford it?"

"Hahaha!"

After three sneers, Kong Yingda shivered reflexibly. He was so familiar with these three sneers. After three sneers, Li Mu was about to start slandering people.

Sure enough, after Li Mu sneered, his head tilted and glanced at Kong Yingda sideways, and his words began to sound ugly: "Old Confucius, I think you have any great arguments and dare to take the way of being a teacher in front of me. You are a descendant of Confucius, and you don't even understand the principle of "teaching without distinction"? A saint is a teacher, but he still chooses students? What's wrong with the prince? What's wrong with the nobles? Since he is a student, he is just a student like a nephew of a public servant. A real teacher can teach anyone! Look at you, do you still look like a teacher? If you don't say it, you are afraid of deviation. If the teacher's ability is enough, how can it be deviation?!"

Kong Yingda didn't expect that Li Mu would even question his own major, and his head was buzzing. Since he met Li Mu, Kong Yingda's pride has basically been blown away by him. The only thing left is the four words "teaching and educating". The old Kong family's heirloom skills have never been questioned for thousands of years. Today, not only was it questioned, but Li Mu's questioning, which made Kong Yingda's passion pour into his brain. In short, it's the top!

"Okay, okay! Li Mu, after hearing what you said, you must know the way of being a teacher? Well, you will teach me. If you can teach well, I, the Imperial College Priest, will quit drinking, and give it to you!"

Li Mu suddenly laughed and said, "Old Confucius, you have to do it, otherwise how can you support the whole family? I won't rob you. I won't do it anymore. Is it still a waste of money, I will send you, the Imperial College Priest? "

He doesn't care about it, he doesn't care about it!

Kong Yingda only felt that his eyes were black and he almost fainted again. He was so humiliated in front of his students. Kong Yingda's final stubbornness had already shown signs of collapse. He sighed and his eyes turned red.

Li Shimin couldn't see it and said, "Li Mu, although Kong Aiqing's title is not as good as you, he is still there, so you should have some respect. Just do not bet. In the future... the Chongwenguan Academy will add a class. You can teach whatever you want, and I will see the effect."

When the students heard this, they suddenly started to complain. Their homework every morning took their lives. If you add another class, wouldn’t you even have to study in the afternoon?

"No!" Li Mu waved his hand and said, "Your Majesty, there is no need to extra class. In my opinion, the knowledge taught by Kong Jijiu is just the learning of enlightenment. What I study is the great way. People who only learn the learning of enlightenment cannot learn it at all. Therefore, it is okay for me to teach, but I only teach geniuses who can complete Confucius Jijiu's studies in advance. If a person who cannot even complete Professor Kong Jijiu's studies in advance, he is not qualified to learn the great way of me."

"You kid is so crazy!" Li Shimin laughed angrily and said, "Okay, Li Mu, you are so arrogant. Then I want to see what you are going to teach? Let me know what kind of a great way it is!"

"Then please be careful!" Li Mu was not afraid at all, and stretched his hand into the tiger skin marten, pulled hard, and pulled out a cloth bag. He opened the cloth bag and exposed the mahjong.

Li Shimin reached out and took out one, saw a '60,000' engraved on it, frowned and said, "What's this?"

The students also stretched their necks to see, Li Mu poured mahjong on the desk and introduced, "Your Majesty, this is what I intend to offer to the queen. It is my latest invention, called 'mahjong'. But now that I want to teach these students, let's start with this first lesson."

"Dedicated to the Queen?" Li Shimin picked up another 'two cakes' and said strangely: "The patterns on these bamboo blocks are different. What are they for?"

"Report to Your Majesty, this is a kind of gambling tool."

"Gambling tools?" Li Shimin was not angry. The gameplay has been one of the ways of folk entertainment since the Qin and Han Dynasties. By the Sui and Tang Dynasties, it was even more popular. There were gambling shops, gambling sieves, guess odds and even, and even bets that the mother and daughter next door gave birth to boys and girls. As long as it could be "guessed", they could be gambling. Although Li Shimin was not good at gambling, he would play two "leaves cards" with his concubines when he was free, as a way to play. However, the gambling tools in the Tang Dynasty were far less than those in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, so they were a bit boring.

Li Shimin was looking forward to it when he heard Li Mu say that 'mahjong' was a gambling tool. But this place was Chongwen Hall after all, so what was going on with gambling tools to teach students? Li Shimin put down the 'two cakes' and said, "Li Mu, are you too nonsense? I asked you to teach students the skills. Is gambling a skill?"

"Your Majesty, you have this question because you don't understand the truth contained in this mahjong. I found this mahjong because it was an experience, and your Majesty also knew that it was me who was a village brave man to transport food... The truth contained in this mahjong is related to this!"

"Transport grain?"

Li Shimin heard the question marks and said, "You explain to me first, why can't I see that there are still these things in this mahjong?"

Li Mu picked out a "one cake" from the mahjong and said, "Please look at this card, called "one barrel", or "one cake". Its meaning can be explained in two ways. Well... Have you ever seen grain storage?"

"I have been in war for more than ten years, how could I have never seen a grain stockpile? Don't keep it in a silence, just say it."

Li Mu showed Li Shimin the 'one cake' and said, "When this card is called 'one barrel', it is to see the grain stock from the sky. Please see, isn't that true?"

Li Shimin took it and looked at it, nodded, and said, "The grain storage is cylindrical, it is indeed the case. It is appropriate to call it "one barrel". What does "one cake" mean?"

"It means a cake."

"..." Li Shimin glared at Li Mu with annoyance and said, "Continue."
