The music is melodious, like the gurgling of a stream in the valley, or the chirping of birds in the woods, touching the heart.

Li Haoze closed his eyes, as if he could see the landscape scenes in the song, and his mind drifted with the music.

At the end of the song, Li Haoze applauded sincerely and praised: "Chengyang, you are really a genius. You played this song very well."

Little Chengyang raised his head proudly, "Of course not, although I may not be as good as Sister Lizhi and Little Sizi in other aspects.

But when it comes to music, His Highness is exceptionally gifted!" Little Chengyang smiled triumphantly, his eyes sparkling with confidence and pride.

Li Haoze looked at her smug and cute smile, and then he remembered that Chengyang was also a lawless little witch when he was a child!

It was only in the last year that she became docile in front of him, which might be because her beauty and Xiao Sizi were too dazzling.

So, he followed Xiao Chengyang's words and praised him, "Yes, Xiao Chengyang's talent in music is really amazing.

This piece of music is so beautiful that it makes people feel as if they are surrounded by mountains and rivers.”

After hearing Li Haoze's praise, Xiao Chengyang showed an even brighter smile on his face, like a blooming flower.

She said excitedly, "Really? Do you really think I play well?

Then I must work harder in the future to play more beautiful songs for you!"

Li Haoze smiled and nodded, feeling very warm in his heart.

He looked at Xiao Chengyang's face full of enthusiasm and vitality, but couldn't help but think of the tomb again, and suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

He took the initiative to step forward and hold Chengyang's hand, "It's still early, brother will take you to fly a kite!"

"Brother...Brother?" Upon hearing this name, Xiao Chengyang blushed immediately.

Li Haoze claimed that he was used to it in front of the little princess, but in the Tang Dynasty, the brother was considered the father.

However, Xiao Chengyang did not take the initiative to point out these things, but murmured softly, "Okay, Divine Beast...Brother!"

The two came to the spacious open space in the palace, and Li Haoze took a colorful kite from Wu Shuner.

This was made by the little princess in her spare time. There are various cute patterns painted on the kite, which makes people happy at the first sight.

"Wow, what a beautiful kite!" Little Chengyang jumped up excitedly and couldn't wait to take the kite.

Li Haoze smiled and taught her how to fly a kite. The two of them pulled the string together and ran happily in the open space against the breeze.

The kite danced in the air like a beautiful butterfly, attracting people around to stop and watch.

"It's flying, it's flying!" Little Chengyang cheered happily, with an innocent smile on his face.

Seeing Xiao Chengyang so happy, Li Haoze felt full of satisfaction.

He ran with her against the wind, becoming a beautiful scenery in the palace.

The two played for a long time, until the kite string was all used up, and then they reluctantly took back the kite.

There were beads of sweat on Xiao Chengyang's face, but his eyes were shining with excitement and satisfaction.

"Thank you, Xiaorang-kun." Xiao Chengyang said sincerely, "I am really happy today."

Li Haoze smiled and shook his head. "I should be the one to thank you, Chengyang. You made me feel the happiness I haven't felt in a long time."

The two walked side by side on the way back to the palace, the sunlight shining on them, leaving behind a string of cheerful laughter.

…

While Li Haoze and Xiao Chengyang were playing and having fun in the palace's piano music, Chang'an, an ancient and solemn city, was quietly undergoing an unprecedented cultural change.

The once dull and conservative atmosphere seemed to have been blown away by a new breeze overnight, and was replaced by a vigorous and upward vitality.

Academies and libraries, concepts that once existed only in the minds of a few people, are now springing up in every corner of Chang'an City like mushrooms after rain.

"Have you heard? A lot of new academies and libraries have opened in Chang'an City recently." A citizen said to his friend while walking on the busy street.

"I've seen it with my own eyes!" the friend responded. "Now, wherever I go.

You can hear the sound of people reading aloud and see people eager to learn. This change is really huge."

These changes, tracing back to their origins, were originally initiated by the Development and Reform Commission.

Under the order of the little princess, they decided to break the monopoly of education by the aristocratic families, so that more people would have the opportunity to access knowledge and thus change their own destiny.

Naturally, this move did not receive the support of the aristocratic families at first.

They fear that their status will be threatened and therefore strongly resist this.

But as time went on, they found that things were not going in the direction they expected.

"Look at the Mingda Academy. I heard that it enrolled thousands of students at one time, and the tuition was not low." A young man from a prominent family mentioned this at a family gathering.

"That's true. I've heard that too." Another young man from a noble family continued.

“Moreover, the content they teach is all some strange and ingenious techniques, not the sage books in our traditional sense.

I thought those poor kids and peasants would scoff at this, but unexpectedly they flocked to it.”

This discovery caused the aristocratic families to re-examine this issue.

They realized that opening such a college might not pose a threat to their status, but might instead be a new business opportunity.

After all, although those children from poor families and peasants have low status, they are numerous.

If they could open academies and teach some useless knowledge at a high fee.

This way, they can lead these people astray and prevent them from posing a real threat to their position, while also making huge profits from it.

"Why don't we open a college as well?" an elder from a prominent family suggested after careful consideration.

There was a shrewd gleam in his eyes, as if he had already seen the endless source of income for the academy in the future.

"That's a good idea!" another young man from a noble family echoed.

“As a prominent family with abundant resources and connections, it is easy for us to open a college.

We can also use this opportunity to further strengthen our position.”

Therefore, under the promotion of aristocratic families, the number of academies and libraries in Chang'an City increased rapidly.

Although these academies and libraries charge high fees, most of the content they teach is useless knowledge.

For example, the craftsmanship taught at Mingda College, such as mechanical and electrical engineering, engineering, biology, etc.

However, even so, those poor children and peasants who are eager to learn still flock to it.

They hope to change their destiny through learning, and are unwilling to give up even the slightest hope.
