Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Imperial Study's Request
In the imperial study, the emperor was reading and folding, and the wind and rain millet stood aside and did not dare to come out.
She didn't know why the emperor liked her so much recently. It was easy to get the embroidery done that day, and the emperor happened to be on the side when she went to the errand, and seeing that her hands were full of needles, he gave her permission not to do those female celebrities anymore. So I asked her to go to the imperial study to sharpen the ink.
"Emperor, you have been here for so long, and your father has no time to accompany you, so you can usually walk around the palace at will? I don't think you like the palace very much, you always want to run outside every day, is the scenery outside still comparable to this huge palace? Li Shimin put down the brush and said to Xiaomi with a pleasant face. Among the Sons of Heaven in the past dynasties, his appearance is rich and handsome, and he is outstanding. When he took off his court clothes, he looked particularly kind and easy-going, his beard was bent towards the top, and he smiled.
"Back to my father, this palace is very big, and my sons haven't traveled much." Wind and rain millet thought, everywhere is the palace forbidden is deep and strict, the wall is so high, I can't climb out! Besides, I'm not interested in seeing your concubines.
At this time, a eunuch reported at the door: "Your Majesty, Dr. Taichang Li Chunfeng and Master Li ask to see you." ”
"Hurry up, please." As soon as the emperor heard that it was Li Chunfeng, he did not hesitate to call him in.
Li Chunfeng has followed the emperor since he raised his army, and he is a resourceful military advisor, which can be compared with Zhuge Liang back then. He is low-key, he won't suddenly come up with an idea for things he doesn't let him do, this kind of person is a reference talent, just like your family's calendar, you see how to arrange the days of the road. He is now in charge of the imperial calendar, etc., and in the past few years, he has improved the armillary sphere, and human history and civilization have taken a step forward.
Li Chunfeng came in, saw that Xiaomi was also there, and showed an unpredictable smile on his face, Shi Shi greeted the emperor with long sleeves and gave a salute to Princess Zhongyi.
"Lord Li, you came just in time. You can help me look at these books. The emperor picked up a few books of incurable diseases that had been placed on the table a long time ago and threw them to Li Chunfeng, then turned his head and said to Xiaomi: "Emperor, the autumn season is coming, do you like hunting?" Will your father take you hunting? Your father and I are hunting, but I am majestic. ”
"Oh, where to hunt?" As soon as the wind and rain millet heard it, the interest came. She has never seen the emperor perform martial arts, and she heard that the emperor is very good at riding and archery, and once led a small number of soldiers to break through the enemy's encirclement, scaring the enemy out of his courage.
Li Chunfeng twitched the corners of his mouth holding the pile of folds, this emperor is so old and likes to show off in front of juniors. Usually when I discuss state affairs with him, I am very serious, but today I am not calm with Princess Zhongyi present, as if I forgot that he was there.
"Sit, sit, give Master Li a seat." The emperor also instructed the little eunuch to put a chair for Li Chunfeng and let him sit next to him to turn the fold, and he talked to the millet girl about the hunting with great interest. "I'm going to Tongzhou this year."
"You don't know how to say, at that time, my ministers and princes will come, and sometimes they will bring a few concubines and princesses.
"Once I was shooting a wild boar, my minister Tang Jian, do you know the way? It's the father of Tang Min, the young secretary of Honglu Temple, who has been with me for many years and is also an old minister, and he was almost frightened when the wild boar rushed over, but I shot it with an arrow, ha, ha!
Later, he said to his father, I will win the world immediately, but I can't rule the world immediately! I thanked him for his loyalty, and knew that he was thinking about my safety. "The emperor talked about the past like a young man showing off his exploits to the girl.
Millet nodded like a chicken pecking rice, and admired it again and again. "My father was so brave back then! No wonder Mrs. Jing'an adores you so much. ”
The emperor looked at her and smiled: "Now my father is still not old, and I will show it to you in the paddock another day." ”
Li Chunfeng stretched out one ear to listen to what they were saying, shaking his head as he flipped through the folds in his hand.
"By the way, how is Jing Anhou's kung fu immediately?" The emperor remembered the rumors outside that Xiaomi's father, Mosha, picked two famous and decent young leaders with a spear in Luoshui, so he wanted to compare.
"He's probably not going to get on the horse, he's too fat. Carry a spear of a hundred pounds, and the horse will be crushed. Xiaomi replied very seriously.
"Ha Luha, girl, you talk so funny, how can you arrange your father like this." He stroked his beard.
Wind and rain millet also laughed.
"But if you really go to the battlefield, put on a full suit of armor, put on a weapon, and add the armor covered by the horse itself, the general himself can't be too heavy, or the god horse will have to die of exhaustion."
Li Shimin stood up, cast his deep gaze into the distance, and continued: "This time I sent Princess Wencheng to Tubo and relatives, I just want to one day be able to realize the release of horses in Nanshan and the storage of knives and guns. Less fighting on the frontier is always a good thing for the common people. Tang Jian is right, he will win the world immediately, and he can't rule the world immediately. I want to use virtue to make all dynasties obedient, and now those barbarians respect me as the Khan of the Heavens, and they can afford to look down on the Tang Dynasty. I am strong and prosperous, and I do not want to oppress those weak countries, but to serve as their shelter and maintain the harmony of the world. ”
"The hard work of my father, my son's ministers have been taught."
Li Shimin is an atmospheric king, and these great knowledge of governing the world is deep, and millet does not know the way. From time to time, he said a few words to his children to influence them, hoping that they would inherit his ambition. Talking and talking has become a habit, and Xiaomi is not immune.
"Now in addition to Tibet, the Great Food Country is also eyeing us, they are strong, they also occupy half of the western part of the country, and they often clash with us. Therefore, the art of war must not be wasted now, and the defense of the frontier must not be wasted. If the country is strong, others will respect you, and if the country is weak, others will bully you. Do you understand? Emperor. Li Shimin unconsciously talked to Xiaomi about a bunch of national defense things, and he didn't know what to do, he felt that Xiaomi was willing to listen, so he talked endlessly.
Li Chunfeng finally finished reading the recital, got up and reported to the emperor, and expressed his opinion. Xiaomi's predicament has finally been lifted.
They solved their state affairs, and the rain and millet didn't want to intervene, so they took a plate of dim sum to the side to eat. Why should you pay so much attention to things that are not in your own hands, and be wise and protect yourself. If these national affairs are interjected in the wrong way, they will be ridiculed for ignorance; If you plug it right, you won't be able to get any benefits, because she is a girl, and her father is a foreign minister, so she has to keep a low profile, so as not to cause disaster to the family.
Li Shimin looked at the place where Xiaomi was sitting far away, and felt that this girl was sensible, well-behaved, and had no ambition. I feel much more relaxed when I put it around.
At this time, Li Chunfeng straightened his clothes, knelt down to him, and said, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty has a reluctant request, and I hope that the emperor will approve it." ”
