"Your Majesty, you see that with this interest in arithmetic, the young prince will definitely become a master of arithmetic in the future. This young man has little talent and little knowledge, and he really doesn't dare to be a teacher!"
Li Xuandao. Just
Li Shimin glanced at Li Chengqian, who was still lying on the table fiddling with his calculations. His face darkened, and he looked a little dark. This kid used to be quite smart, but why is he so stupid today?
"You're welcome, young master. It is precisely because Gao Ming loves arithmetic so much that I need to find an arithmetic expert for Gao Ming!" Li Shimin laughed loudly.
"Looking at all the mathematicians in the Tang Dynasty, I have never seen anyone taller than the young master!"
"Your Majesty..."
Li Xuan opened his mouth but was speechless.
Although this man calls himself the Prince of Hejian County, he is a bit addicted, but he is the real Majesty Li Er.
If you are so sure of yourself, and you are still living in someone else's village, if you keep shirking yourself like this, it will always be a little bad.
After thinking about it, Li Xuan felt that it would be better to start again, and his face straightened.
"Your Majesty, do you really want me to teach the young prince arithmetic?"
"Exactly!"
Li Shimin was overjoyed.
"Please ask Master to teach Gao Ming arithmetic!"
At this time, Li Chengqian, who was originally lying on the table, had already calculated the results at some point, and was standing aside respectfully, looking at Li Xuan with admiration on his face.
"Your Majesty, to learn the kid's arithmetic, you need to give up calculations. Moreover, if you want to learn it, it will not be accomplished in a day. It needs to be accumulated over time!"
Li Xuan said with a solemn expression.
"I know this!"
Li Shimin nodded solemnly.
Li Chengqian also nodded solemnly.
"I wonder how long the young prince can learn arithmetic here?"
Li Xuan continued to ask.
“For the first two years, you can come and study for ten days a month!”
Li Shimin replied.
Ten days?
Li Xuan was startled, so much time?
As for Li Chengqian, his face was full of joy.
Unexpectedly, learning arithmetic from this little master would have such benefits. Within a month, I would be able to have ten days out of the palace!
"So, in the next few days, I will write a book on basic arithmetic for the young prince!"
Li Xuan continued to ask: "I wonder if His Highness the Prince can recite the Nine-Nine Songs by heart?"
"Nine-nine songs?"
Li Shimin quickly looked at Li Chengqian, feeling a little ashamed. He had always tested Li Chengqian's Confucian classics and history, and had never tested arithmetic.
"Come back to Master, Gao Ming can already memorize it!"
As he spoke, a trace of pride flashed across Li Chengqian's face, and he recited aloud: "Nine-nine-eighty-one, nine-eight-eighty-one, nine-eighty-seventy-two,...Two two is like four."
After listening, Li Xuan nodded secretly.
"It is not easy for His Royal Highness to be able to recite ninety-nine songs at the age of ten!"
As early as the Spring and Autumn Period, the Jiujiu Song has been compiled and used by people. And because the Jiujiu Song starts from "Nine Nine Eighty-one" to "Two Two Ru Four", there are a total of thirty-six sentences, and because it starts from "Nine Nine Eighty-one" and ends with "Two Two Ru Four",
It started on "Nine Nine Eighty-One", so it was named "Nine Nine Songs".
However, it is obvious that the ancients did not maximize the role of Jiujiu Ge.
"Then I don't know how many nine are there?"
Li Xuan suddenly asked.
"Forehead?"
Li Chengqian was startled, frowned slightly, and thought for a long time, his face flushed with anxiety.
"Gao Ming has disappointed the young master. There is no such thing as the same as before in the song of ninety-nine!"
"Nine as nine!"
Li Xuan said quietly, then stood up, took out a pamphlet from the bedroom, and handed it to Li Chengqian.
"Your Highness, this is the arithmetic book used by the Master to teach the children in Lijiazhuang. Your Majesty, you can take it and read it for a while. Among it is the Jiujiu Song written by me. Your Highness needs to recite it again!"
"Thank you, Master!"
Li Chengqian quickly stood up, took the book with both hands, and thanked him.
Then, the book was opened.
Unfortunately, the content on the first page left me confused.
"These are numbers, this is one, this is two..."
After patiently teaching him once, Li Xuan could hear the sound of beating drums in his belly.
"When it's time to eat, I have to go and cook. His Highness the Crown Prince will watch by himself."
After saying that, Li Xuan stood up directly and walked out.
"Father...Father!"
Seeing this, Li Chengqian couldn't help but look at Li Shimin who was looking aside.
"My father has only heard the young master explain this arithmetic once. If you have any questions, just wait until the young master comes back and ask him for advice!"
Li Shimin was stunned for a moment, and then warned him, "You may not think that I am young, but my knowledge is as deep as the sea. I am a strange person in this world!"
"I dare to ask my father, how does the young master compare with the grand master?"
Li Chengqian asked curiously.
"In the art of literature, the great master is superior. In the art of arithmetic and the investigation of things, the little master is most respected!"
After thinking for a while, Li Shimin said.
Li Chengqian, on the other hand, blinked his little eyes, as if he understood something, but also seemed not to understand anything, but he still raised his hand.
"Thank you, Father, for clearing up the confusion!"
Immediately, he looked around to check.
Although he is a prince, he has all the rare things in the Tang Dynasty in the East Palace.
However, he has never seen most of the objects in this house.
"Father, this sofa was also made by the young master?"
Finally, after turning around in a circle, Li Chengqian focused his attention on the sofa beneath him.
"Exactly!"
Li Shimin nodded slightly.
"My son, Dong Gong, also wants a set!"
"The director has already started production."
"Thank you, father!"
"..."
Half an hour later.
As the strong aroma of rice spread into the room, Li Chengqian followed Li Shimin with a curious look on his face.
Walk out of the main hall and come to the dining room.
handwashing.
Serve the meal!
Then, he sat on a dining table and chairs that he had never seen before, eagerly looking at the cooking on the table.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, let's have dinner!"
Li Xuan said casually, holding steamed buns and vegetables in one hand.
Now, Li Shimin is also used to Li Xuan's way of eating. He takes care of himself, making steamed buns and vegetables in one hand, and the food is delicious.
Only Li Chengqian was a little confused looking at all this.
Ever since he was little, he has always had his own dining table.
It's not like now, when three people share one pot at the dinner table.
Moreover, they also shared a plate of food.
Although this dish smells amazing, but...
How could your father eat so deliciously?
Seeing this, Li Chengqian couldn't help but pursed his lips, and couldn't hold back any longer. He stretched out his hands and grabbed a big steamed bun with one hand, and then put on a mouthful of hot food.
Suddenly, my mouth was filled with fragrance.
"Woooo..."
too delicious!
Li Chengqian was extremely excited. He had never eaten such delicious food.
In fact, even this big steamed bun is more delicious than the ones made in the palace food bureau.
However, his mouth was full of food and he couldn't make any sound.
…
After meal.
Li Xuan stood on the hillside and watched Li Shimin take Li Chengqian, who had a bulging belly, into the carriage and sway toward the palace.
"Father, this young master can also cook?"
After walking a long distance, Li Chengqian regained his composure, looked up at Li Shimin, and asked the doubts he had long had in his heart.
“My master’s cooking skills are also outstanding!”
