readx;? Chapter Ninety-Six: The Current Situation (3)
"Grandpa, and all the seniors, as you said just now, in the former Koubian of the Eastern and Western Turkic Khanates, in the wilderness where there were no cities, we could exchange two for three, or even more. www.biquge.info But now, there is a two-for-two, and even more of us are dead. Could it be that Grandpa and your predecessors really thought that it was just the iron tools? Could it be that as long as iron tools were banned, this situation could be changed, and the Eastern and Western Turkic Khanates would be weakened as a result?"
Wang Chong brushed his thoughts and said to the eyes of the elders in the council hall. In a word, everyone was stunned. Everyone only thought about the problem of iron, but they didn't think about anything deeper.
As Wang Chong said, the prosperity of the Eastern and Western Turkic Khanates is a fait accompli, and this is by no means something that can be changed by a few iron tools.
"Chong'er, what do you want to say?"
Even Wang Chong's eldest uncle showed a solemn look. He is an important minister in the court, and he has the right to counsel and discuss politics, and he is extremely sensitive to this kind of thing.
"The nomads of the steppe, every 100 years, must have a great prosperity. This is the trend of the times, and no one can change it. This was true of the former Qin, the same was true of the Great Han, and the same was true of the former Sui. Today, the same is true for Datang. Now, it is no longer a question of the people of the Eastern and Western Turkic Khanates in the north, but also in the Us-Tibet Plateau in the west, Goguryeo in the east, and Erhai in the south. ”
"We can't change these nomads, barbarian tribes! The only thing we can change is ourselves! That's why Sun Er said that this matter is not in the borderlands, but in the domain, not in the Eastern and Western Turkic Khanates, but in the Tang Dynasty itself. ”
Wang Chong is colorful. Although he had to be reborn, Wang Chong couldn't help but worry when he thought of the grim surrounding situation that Datang was facing now.
After being born again, only he knows how many days and nights he couldn't sleep at night.
In this chamber, they are all important ministers of one side, although many of them have retired, but the influence of their lives is still there, and their family still has a huge influence in the government and the opposition.
"The embankment of a thousand miles collapsed in the anthill", today's Datang is already in crisis, and it will erupt together just for one inducement. The people in this chamber were able to discover the Eastern and Western Turkic Khanates in the north, which was already a prophet and had a glimpse of it.
But Wang Chong knew that this was not enough, and this was not a fundamental problem at all.
Wang Chong must find a way to alert them, and through them, through this council chamber, he will influence more people!
“...... However, for many years of peace in China, when Emperor Taizong forced the Eastern and Western Turks to the north of Yinshan, many barbarians were annexed, and conquered Annam. At the beginning of the dynasty, it further expanded its influence to the Western Regions and established the Anxi Protectorate. ”
"This dynasty has won so many victories that the sphere of influence of all nations has been incomprehensible, not only surpassing the Sui, but also far surpassing the Han and Qin, and reaching the unprecedented strength of the Middle Earth Divine Continent!
Thinking of the current situation in Datang, Wang Chong felt heavy. It is not terrible that the foreign enemy is strong, whether it is the most powerful Xiongnu or the strongest Turkic Khanate, and finally surrendered one by one to the hooves of the Central Plains Dynasty, but the hearts of the people are scattered, this is the real problem.
"My grandson heard a poem before: The young man in Yingzhou is tired of the wilderness, and the fox Qiu is hunting under the city. A thousand cups of wine are not intoxicating, and Hu'er can ride a horse at the age of ten. ”
"While we were in pursuit of fox fur brocade clothes, indulging in luxurious pleasures, and taking pride in not getting drunk in a thousand cups, those northern Turkic khanates were already training their children, riding horses and archery, and taking pride in killing enemies on the battlefield. ”
"The Turks are easy to keep, but the hearts of the people are hard to overcome. My grandson thinks that's the real problem!!"
In the end, Wang Chong's heart was extremely heavy. This is not that Wang Chong said such nonsense in order to persuade the elders and to behave in front of the elders. It is Wang Chong's personal experience in his last life.
That frontier poem was overheard when he was wandering in his later life. Many things can only be seen clearly when the wood is completed and there is no way to recover!
But by that time, everything was already evening.
The current Datang, drunk and gold-obsessed, people's hearts have changed, and it is no longer the original Datang. It's a pity that many people in the game haven't noticed this at all.
In the conference hall, it was quiet and the atmosphere was heavy. The elders present originally just wanted to hear what Wang Chong had and see how this grandson of Jiugong could be a blockbuster, but the more he heard it, the more heavy his mood became, and when he heard Wang Chong recite the border poem, they were even more shocked, as if they had noticed the grandson of Jiugong for the first time.
Even the old man in the hall showed a shocked look.
He asked Wang to rush in and ask a sudden question. I want to test this grandson through this way, to see how good he is, how talented he is, and what kind of position he will give him in the future.
As for the heirs......
From Wang Chong's eldest uncle Wang Yan, to Wang Chong's father Wang Yan, to Wang Chong's eldest brother Wang Fu, cousin Wang Li, he has been disappointed too many times.
It is not easy to conquer a group of old brothers and subordinates and gain their recognition.
After all these years, he had almost given up hope.
However, what the old man didn't expect was that Wang Chong's performance far exceeded his expectations. This is no longer a question of failing to test the test and being unsatisfied.
In this grandson, what is shown has gone far beyond this content.
For the first time, he suddenly saw some hope.
The reaction of everyone in the hall fell into Wang Li's eyes, and his face suddenly became even more ugly.
"Mr. Chong, I want to ask, you made the poem just now. Or is it true?"
In the conference hall, Ye Lao suddenly asked, his seriousness seemed to have some special meaning.
Wang Chong's poem, if he made it himself. Then it can only show that the grandson of the ninth prince is very talented, and he can think of the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty through singing and dancing, combined with the characteristics of the Turkic nomadic tribes, to write such a poem, and that kind of talent is beyond doubt.
At his age of fifteen, it was indeed amazing. It can be regarded as the demeanor of Jiugong when he was young.
But if not, if there is really such a poem on the border, then everything is completely different in nature. That's a lot more serious.
This is no longer a question of whether Jiugongtui recommends a grandchild, but involves a major national event.
"It's true!"
Wang Chong said solemnly. This poem was heard by him in his previous life, but it was not only when he listened to it. But it has been in the folk for a long time.
Even the elders present now send someone to investigate, and they can still find it now!
As soon as Wang Chong's words fell, the atmosphere in the conference hall suddenly became a little more solemn. Several of the old man's subordinates glanced at each other, and all of them looked serious.
They weren't worried about Wang Chong lying, this kind of thing would be known as soon as they investigated. The elders were thinking about other things.
"Jiugong, in the matter of the Eastern and Western Turkic Khanates, although we have been obsessed with it for decades. But in terms of vision and knowledge, it is really not as good as Young Master Chong. Just like Young Master Chong said, the affairs of the Eastern and Western Turkic Khanates are not in the Eastern and Western Turkic Khanates, but in the court, not in the iron tools, but in the hearts of the people, not in the borders, but in the domain. This time, His Majesty came to pay his respects, this is what Jiugong should tell His Majesty!"
Ye Gong's hair trembled, and he said in a heavy mood.
Wang Chong is only a fifteen-year-old child, and all the elders are over half a hundred years old, all of them are experienced and knowledgeable. But it is precisely because of this that all the elders know better that what Wang Chong said is not false at all.
The Turkic border is easy to overcome, but the people's hearts are not ancient and irreparable. That's the real problem.
Even these old ministers have no way to do this.
This is the reason why Ye Gong is worried and has a heavy heart.
After many years of confusion, no one thought that they would hear this kind of insight that hit the nail on the head and pointed straight to the heart in a teenage grandson of Jiugong.
"This matter, wait for Your Majesty to come. I'll discuss it with him. ”
At the head of the council room, the old man nodded, also in a heavy mood. An old brother's chat, as well as the test of children and grandchildren, will eventually turn out like this, which he did not expect before.
But compared to this, the grim situation facing the empire is what he is really worried about.
"Congratulations to the Ninth Prince, the Wang family has a unicorn!"
"At a young age, he has this kind of insight in military affairs, and he will inevitably become a pillar of the country in the future, and the future is limitless!"
"Young Master Chong has the demeanor of the Ninth Prince!"
"In time, in the future, my Tang Dynasty will inevitably produce another important minister of the country!"
"Congratulations to the Ninth Prince!"
"Congratulations to Young Master Chong!"
.........
The elders in the palace said one after another, which was different from the previous perfunctory royal family Sun Wangli. This time, all the elders were sincere, and they all looked at Wang Chong sitting in the corner one by one, and they all admired it.
"Come, Young Master Chong, sit next to me!"
With a killing aura and a very strategic vision, "Ye Gong" suddenly beckoned to Wang Chong. The more he looked at this child, the more he liked it.
He has seen several descendants of Jiugong, and only this child impressed him the most, and even made him feel sorry for his talents.
If it can be cultivated well, the future of this child is limitless.
This was not an empty phrase, but his intuition. He Ye Dong sees people very accurately, and he has never been wrong with being favored by him. You can't be wrong with that.
Wang Chong was surprised, and couldn't help but subconsciously look at the grandfather at the head of the hall.
"Hehe, go, go! Now that Ye Dong likes you, you can sit next to him." ”
The old man sat upright, waved his hand and smiled.
He was upright and incorruptible all his life, and rarely smiled. But today I was really happy.
"Yes, Grandpa!"
With his grandfather's approval, Wang Chong nodded, and moved the seat to the side of "Ye Gong".
The old man's other subordinates don't know yet, but there is no doubt that his performance just now has won the approval of this "Ye Lao" under his grandfather!
[Thank you to the royal family for the reward!^-^]
