Chapter 189
"Whatever you think, just say it. As long as it is reasonable, I will agree to it!" Li Shimin waved his hand and said generously.
Su Chen bowed and smiled, "Thank you, Your Majesty. I think the court should set up a "Ministry of Education".
In the future, all teachers in the Tang Dynasty will be managed and evaluated by the Ministry of Education. In addition, they will be responsible for the review and compilation of textbooks, and the printing of other books must also be approved by the Ministry of Education. "
Li Shimin felt a headache when he heard this.
Previously, Su Chen proposed that the court add "Mineral Resources Bureau, Taxation Bureau", Fang Xuanling and others were still in the improvement stage, and now there is another Ministry of Education.
Li Shimin waved his hand and hurriedly stopped Su Chen from continuing.
"Boy, wait, follow me to the Imperial Study. I order Fang Xuanling and others to discuss with you."
Su Chen immediately stood up and refused, "No, Your Majesty! I'm going back soon, and there's nothing else to do. That's all."
"Asshole, you're in a hurry to go back before you've made it clear on such an important matter? Is there something urgent in your manor that you're waiting for you to go back to deal with?" Li Shimin stood up and asked angrily.
"Uh, Your Majesty, there's nothing urgent in my manor. It's mainly because it's too hot to go back late. It's only a little after eight o'clock now, and the sun is not very strong." Su Chen answered truthfully.
"Hahaha! I'm so angry!
Boy, do you believe it? I'll let you stand in the sun for two hours at noon?" Li Shimin laughed angrily.
"Your Majesty, you have to speak with conscience! I have no official position and no salary. I'm just giving you a suggestion." Su Chen spread his hands and spoke with conviction.
If I had gone to the Imperial Study to find Li Shimin before, Fang Xuanling and the others would have been there, so we could have discussed it together.
How could it be possible for Su Chen to work overtime for this matter now, since he was not a formal employee.
Su Chen's words really confused Li Shimin, and he looked at Empress Changsun with a dull expression, and was speechless for a while.
Empress Changsun laughed so hard that she couldn't close her mouth. She finally understood what His Majesty said, that Su Chen had never treated him as an emperor.
Li Shimin sighed and gave up.
"Hey! I won't bother with this ignorant person. When you go back, write a memorial and send someone to deliver it to the palace."
Su Chen thought about it and respectfully agreed: "Okay, Your Majesty, I will write it when I get back."
"Oh, by the way, this is the official resume that Uncle Fang wants. Your Majesty, please give it to Uncle Fang to take a look. If there is nothing that needs to be changed, print a few thousand copies and send them to the palace another day."
As he said, Su Chen took out a dozen forms from his arms and handed them to Li Shimin.
"My Lord, please rest assured! I will definitely give it to your Uncle Fang in person." Li Shimin glanced at it casually and said weakly.
Li Shimin was also very helpless when he met such a prospective son-in-law who did not treat him as the emperor.
This was not the first time that Su Chen used him as a servant.
"Then I'll trouble your Majesty!" After thanking him, Su Chen turned to look at Li Chengqian and asked, "Prince, when do we set out tomorrow?"
Li Chengqian stood up and said with a smile, "Brother-in-law, if you didn't come to the palace today, I was planning to send someone to send you a letter! The person I sent to inquire yesterday reported that Changsun Chong and his men are currently working in Hua County, and they will be able to leave the inner pass in more than a month."
Su Chen silently checked the 3D imaging map after hearing this, and finally found Hua County after searching for a while.
Starting from Chang'an and ending at Tongguan on the Yellow River. Hua County is about one-third of the distance between the two places.
"The cement road from Chang'an to Hua County is connected end to end, and it only takes two hours for a carriage to travel... that is, four hours to arrive." Li Chengqian continued.
Su Chen thought for a while and said, "We will meet at Mingde Gate tomorrow, and we may have to spend a night in Hua County."
If we just travel back and forth, we don't have to spend the night in Hua County.
This time, Li Chengqian went to express his condolences on behalf of the emperor. There must be many accompanying guards and so on. It would be too much for him to travel in such a hot day.
"No problem. I'll wait for you at Mingde Gate at six o'clock tomorrow morning.
I've prepared everything else. The noble families have made great efforts this time. They not only bought a lot of white winter melons and mung beans, but also a lot of medicinal materials."
Li Chengqian has already reported to Li Shimin about the performance of the noble families this time.
"That's good, Prince, how many guards are you going to bring with you?" Su Chen nodded and asked.
Li Chengqian did not answer, but looked at Li Shimin.
Li Shimin did not answer about the arrangement of the accompanying guards. "Boy, if there are no outsiders present in the future, you must not call Gao Ming the prince." Li Shimin said angrily.
Su Chen called Li Chengqian 'Prince', and Li Shimin felt that Su Chen was Li Chengqian's father.
Others call Li Chengqian "Your Highness the Crown Prince", only Li Shimin calls Li Chengqian "Crown Prince"
"Uh... OK, I'll remember that."Su Chen didn't understand.
"I plan to send 3,000 Xuanjia soldiers to travel with you."
This time Li Chengqian is traveling as the crown prince, not only must the safety be in place, but the scene must also comply with regulations.
Li Shimin looked at Li Chengqian and Su Chen and asked, "What do you think?"
Li Chengqian first looked at Su Chen, and seeing that the latter seemed to be completely unconcerned, he bowed and said, "Father, Gao Ming thinks that 3,000 Xuanjia soldiers are too many. There is no need to waste manpower and material resources on this trip. The number of people transporting supplies is no less than 2,000."
Li Shimin did not comment and looked at Empress Changsun.
Empress Changsun smiled and nodded at Su Chen, and Li Shimin understood.
"Boy, do you think what Gao Ming said makes sense?"
"Your Majesty, what my brother-in-law said is completely reasonable. Except for the people who are necessary to transport supplies, the rest can be light and simple.
Just arrange 300 soldiers with good archery skills and 200 with outstanding martial arts. Bring Li Ke and Rengui with you this time to protect my brother-in-law. There will be absolutely no problem with safety. "
Su Chen's arrangement makes sense. As long as Li Ke and Xue Rengui are there, it is almost impossible for anyone to commit violence in front of them except for some long-range weapons.
After listening, Li Shimin nodded, "Okay, I will arrange 500 archers and 300 elite soldiers in black armor tomorrow to protect your safety on this trip."
"Boy, Lao San and Rengui are good at personal protection, what about you?"
Although Su Chen and Li Chengqian set out together, they will not stay together anytime and anywhere. Everyone knows that Su Chen is powerless, so he still needs someone to protect him.
Su Chen waved his hand indifferently and said, "Your Majesty, you worry too much. My life is not worth much. Who would be so desperate to take such a big risk to mess with me?"
"Haha, you are self-aware! "Li Shimin smiled slightly.
After thinking for a while, he said: "I ordered the commander of the imperial guards, Li Junxian, to follow and protect you."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, but it's really not necessary. I still have Zhang Long, Zhao Hu, Wang Chao, and Ma Han. They have made great progress recently and practice martial arts with Li Ke and Rengui every day."
Su Chen smiled and declined.
