"Retainer?"

Li Yin held a letter written by Li Shimin in his hand. In the letter, Li Shimin explained the reasons why Li Hui came to Yizhou. Below him sat a young man about his age. A heroic spirit.

"Liulang, what is your expression? Why are you not happy to see me at all?" Li Hui sat on the chair with a grin, dissatisfied with Li Yin's suspicious expression towards him. When he was in Chang'an before, Li Yin and him were like siblings They are close, and there is not much etiquette between the two of them, so when seeing Li Yin, Li Hui is still the same as before, calling Li Yin Liulang directly. After all, Li Hui is still Li Yin's cousin.

Li Yin rubbed his brows in pain. In Li Yin's memory, he had a deep impression of this Li Hui, because the relationship between the two royal family members was relatively closer than that of Cheng Huailiang and others, but the second generation ancestor arrived. What can Yizhou do? He couldn't fool around with Li Hui all day like before.

"Happy, how could you be unhappy." Li Yin squeezed out a kind smile. Li Shimin would really make trouble for him. He was so busy all day long that he didn't have time to serve this guy. The guy needs to find something to do, otherwise, with Li Hui's character, he has to pester him every day, and this Li Hui's thick skin is different from ordinary people, and he can't really beat him with a whip like Li Xiaogong said, then he It's not that his glorious image is completely gone, and I'm afraid he will have to be stigmatized as unkind and unfilial in the end.

Li Hui looked at Li Yin for a while, looked outside for a while, and when he saw the beautiful maids, his eyes were straightened, and he almost shed tears, "Liu Lang, the maids in the palace are all good-looking, honestly, how many have you played with? "

When Li Yin was thinking about what position to assign to Li Hui, Li Hui's words made him almost spit out all the tea in his mouth.

"You think I'm you. Staring at women's butts all day long is useless." Li Yin began to expose Li Hui's shortcomings.

Li Hui looked like he had seen a ghost, "Unbelievable, unbelievable, my father said that the prodigal son of Liulang turned back, I still don't believe it, I didn't expect it to be true. I wonder which maidservant could escape your palm back then!"

"I changed my mind, otherwise your father would not have thrown you here. Since you are my retainer, I have to find something for you to do. Tell me, what do you want to do specifically? Tang Dynasty Chamber of Commerce, the army, and the government, You choose by yourself, I am too lazy to choose for you." Li Yin said.

Li Hui said with a playful face, "Liu Lang, why don't you let me play in Yizhou for a few days, the horses are exhausted. I'm almost tired."

"This is fine, but I also have to arrange things for you in advance, choose quickly, or let you go to the city gate." Li Yin threatened.

Li Hui compromised, "I choose, can't I choose?" He and Li Yin are familiar, but now he is also Li Yin's retainer. Don't be too casual, maybe Li Yin can really whip him, "Army!"

Just as Li Yin thought, Li Hui really chose the army. Li Xiaogong fought all his life. Li Hui was influenced by his father since he was a child, and he also said before that he would join the army in the future. It's just that Li Yin knows that this guy's weight is just a straw bag stuffed in a cloth bag.

Since this is easy, Li Yin made up his mind to throw him into the military academy. "That's fine, you will report to the Military Academy in two days, and you can study there in the future."

"Military Academy? Where is that?" Li Hui asked.

Hearing is believing, seeing is believing, Li Yin asked Jin Daqian to prepare two horses, and took Li Hui directly to the military academy. Today's military academy is very different from when it was first established. The students who come and go are all dressed in uniform. Uniform, the color of this uniform is sky blue, Li Min did not change the style of the clothes, the school uniform is still the round-neck gown of the Tang Dynasty, but the names and numbers of the students are embroidered on the chest of the clothes.

With the passage of time, under the planning of Li Yin and Zhu Youzhi, the military academy became more and more formalized. After Zhu Youzhi read a lot of modern military knowledge, he refined the army and navy on the basis of popular courses. , logistics, reconnaissance and other majors, and is committed to cultivating professional talents, and the previous 500 students have also increased to 1,000.

In addition to teaching, the college's facilities and systems have also been improved. Li Yin brought a lot of training equipment from modern times to the college, and the management of the students has also reached a militarized management, which is very similar to the Taoyuan army. Eat, rest on time, and walk in groups of two and in teams of three.

In terms of basic necessities of life, food, housing and transportation, the college has its own department responsible for all free of charge, which also made the students who came to study breathe a sigh of relief.

"Your Highness!" Seeing Li Yin, two guards at the gate of the academy gave a military salute to Li Yin, which made Li Hui puzzled for a while, not understanding what this gesture represented.

Responding to a military salute, Li Min took Li Hui into the academy. The military academy faces south and north. The first half is the teaching area, and the second half is the playground. It covers an area of ​​about 40,000 square meters, the largest among several academies.

After entering the academy, Li Yin took Li Hui to the office area. On the way, the academy kept saluting to him. These students strictly abide by the rules. Three people form a team, two people walk in a row, and they walk at the same pace. On the stone benches under the shade of some trees, there are still many students reading books, and it does look a bit like a college.

Li Yin calculated that Zhu Youzhi should have no class at this point. In the past, Zhu Youzhi was basically responsible for the teaching tasks, but after this video teaching was created by Li Yin, he felt a lot easier. Sometimes he even had to Admittedly, those people speak better than him, and he is a teacher as well as a student.

"From it!" Li Yin's guess was correct, Zhu Youzhi was sitting in the office and was reading a book of knowledge about cold weapons.

Zhu Youzhi was fascinated by watching, Li Yin called out a few times, Zhu Youzhi came back to his senses, stood up quickly and said: "Your Highness!"

In a few months, Zhu Youzhi has gained a lot of weight, and his physique has also become stronger. He is no longer as weak as before. This achievement should be rewarded to Qin Huaiyu, who punished Zhu Youzhi to death. This is how Zhu Youzhi was trained.

"This king sent you someone." Li Yin pointed to Zhu Youzhi, "His name is Li Hui, the second son of Hejian King Li Xiaogong, and now he is a retainer of the palace. This king handed him over to you. Just treat it as an ordinary student, you don't have to be polite."

Zhu Youzhi sized up Li Hui, but he didn't expect that this was Li Xiaogong's son. People in Sichuan were not unfamiliar with Li Xiaogong's name. At the end of the Sui Dynasty, after Li Yuan conquered Chang'an, he worshiped Li Xiaogong as the comfort ambassador of Shannan Road and led the troops on patrol. Bashu captured the Bashu area, so there are legends about Li Xiaogong in the market.

"Long admiration, long admiration!" Zhu Youzhi cupped his hands.

Li Yin introduced to Li Hui: "This is Zhu Youzhi, the instructor of Yizhou Military Academy."

"I will ask Instructor Zhu to take care of you in the future!" Li Hui is also a person with a bold personality, and he also cupped his hands. This academy is full of weirdness, and he still intends to be a man with his tail between his legs. After all, this is not Hejian County. He came here. At that time, Li Xiaogong also reminded him ten thousand times, telling him to obey Li Yin's arrangements in everything and not to make mistakes.

The two got to know each other for a while, Zhu Youzhi arranged dormitories and classes for Li Hui, and the two took him to familiarize himself with the environment of the college. When they saw people playing football and basketball on the playground, Li Hui's attention He was instantly attracted. When he was in Chang'an, Li Hui was quite obsessed with the sport of polo, but he found that the wildness of this sport on the playground seemed to be no less than that of polo.

"Liulang, what are these two called?" Li Hui came to the playground and kept his eyes on the students who were playing football.

Li Yan laughed and said: "The one played with feet is called football, and the one played with hands is called basketball. There is a special physical education class in the courses here. When the time comes, someone will teach you how to play?"

"Really?" Li Hui was overjoyed when he heard the words, he fell in love with this sport immediately.

Zhu Youzhi looked at the busy students and said to Li Min, "These academies built by His Highness will surely become famous all over the world and fascinate countless scholars."

Li Yin is also not modest, "That is inevitable. The era of only reading the Four Books and Five Classics will soon be a thing of the past in Yizhou."

Taking Li Hui to get acquainted with the academy, Li Yin and Li Hui returned to the palace. Li Hui was still in shock on the way, "Liulang, when I was in Chang'an, I heard about all kinds of magical things in Yizhou. I don't believe it, now I finally understand that it's not a rumor.”

"There are still many magical things in Yizhou. If you stay here for a long time, you will understand. Let's go, it's getting late, and I will hold a banquet to entertain you in the evening, and let you get to know the officials of Chengdu Prefecture and some wealthy families in some places." Li Yin said with his hands behind his back.

Li Hui was touched and said: "Liu Lang, you are still as bold as before."

In fact, Li Yin would entertain officials and local wealthy families every once in a while. Firstly, it was to connect with each other, and secondly, it could be used as an impromptu meeting, talking while eating. This time, Li Yin wanted to use the family banquet to talk about Yanjing. Li Hui came today, just in time to save a special reception for him.

Among the favorite things of the officials in Yizhou, the banquet in the palace ranks first, and the delicious food that makes people almost swallow their tongues can only be tasted in the palace, so this night, anyone who receives None of the inviters was late, they all arrived at the palace early, and acquaintances greet each other warmly.

Li Yin introduced Li Hui to everyone before the banquet started, and when he learned that he was the son of Li Xiaogong, some people from rich families showed gratitude, and some people from rich families looked unhappy. It seems that Li Xiaogong was doing well in Yizhou back then. Sui has done a lot of bad things, but since Li Hui settled in Yizhou in the future, these wealthy people still greeted him politely. After all, he is also Li Yin's retainer.

This time there were more people at the banquet than in the past. Needless to say, Shangguanyi, Dou Xiande, Wang Yinlong and other government officials, the eighth sons of the Cui family were also present. Tong Nian brought the backbone of the chamber of commerce, Tong Yu brought the backbone of the research institute, Qin Huaiyu He and Zhu Youzhi also came, as well as the local wealthy families in Chengdu, the Dou family, the Sun family, the Qian family, etc. all came.
