The first time the prince moved her hands and feet, Xiuxiu's face was flushed, and she didn't know whether she should hide or endure it.

However, she could see that the prince had just risen to the air, and if she could make the prince loose and relaxed, it would be nothing if he was pinched and pinches.

Zhang Yun soon found Gao Yuanshan's address, but sternly refused to allow the prince to take action in person.

The crown prince sent his subordinates to fight the courtiers, which is already shocking to the world, and if he does it himself, God knows what the reaction of those imperial historians will be.

"Beat him up hard and told him that Lao Tzu is not married now because early marriage and early childbearing are not good for the body, is there still a mistake in Mr. Sun's medical advice? Gao Yuanshan sent ** over, it is simply slandering Lone's preference for men! ”

Zhang Yun nodded, if you beat someone, you have to have a reason, and tell the truth, so that you can be regarded as a famous teacher, Gao Yuanshan poured dirty water on the prince, and it was light to be beaten.

When I was a child, everyone was buying New Year's goods, and many top bigwigs were still looking forward to the royal reward. However, Gao Yuanshan did not wait for a reward, but what he waited for was a stinky beating from the prince. It was a real stinky beating, and Zhang Yun was also secretly annoyed, so he started very darkly.

"Even if Gao Yuanshan did something wrong, just reprimand, why do you have to let Zhang Yun beat him?"

In the Liangyi Palace, Li Shimin, who learned the news, couldn't cry or laugh, so he could only call the prince into the palace to reprimand.

Touching his sore buttocks, Li Chengqian said helplessly: "Father, it's just a matter of Gao Yuanshan sending a band, what do you send, Erchen is not a bastard who likes male style, if Zhang Yun hadn't found out early, Erchen's reputation would have been gone." ”

"Do you think that a prince who does things casually to the minister has a good reputation? Gao Yuanshan was beaten by Zhang Yun so much that he couldn't even get out of bed. You, you, you, are always so spontaneous, and the documents of the Ministry of War, what are you writing on it. ”

After speaking, Li Shimin waved his hand, and Li Jian took the official letter.

"Father, the crown prince is not under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of War, and in order to save trouble, Du Lao Thief still handed over the work of clearing the beasts to the prince, and there is no room for refusal. The most important thing is that the prince personally led the dispatch, and the military department did not give out any money and food, this is not the wool of the East Palace. ”

Li Shimin couldn't help but say: "It's over." What can you do? After all, this world will still be handed over to you, and when you are the prince, you can only eat this loss, who will make you rich. Don't say it's you, even I, and I'm often helpless against them. Starting next year, you will officially participate in politics, you watch, when you encounter something that needs to be carried by the black pot, those courtiers will not carry it, and they are waiting to be thrown to you. ”

Hearing this, Li Chengqian was directly dumbfounded....

The prince with a dignified relationship, or a person who specializes in carrying black pots?

"What kind of mouth do you open, who will carry the black pot if you don't carry it. In the past, when the prince participated in politics, the courtiers would oppose it, but when it came to you, no one from the prime minister to the Shangshu objected. After the New Year, when you start to participate in politics, remember the truth of doing less and making fewer mistakes, and doing more wrong, don't be stupid and mix it in, there are many smart people, and there is no shortage of you! ”

Li Chengqian nodded, although he was a person of two lives, he could compare his IQ with Fang Xuanling, and it was estimated that he would be abused to death. The guy who survived the troubled times and is still thriving in the court is not so weak.

Rubbing his sore ass out of the palace, the board of Zongzheng Mansion is not so easy to suffer. Fortunately, Li Daozong was very satisfied with the birthday gift given to his wife by the East Palace, and quietly opened a little opening, I am afraid that he will even have trouble walking today. The killing talent executed by Zongzheng Mansion doesn't matter whether it is the prince of the county or the prince who is beaten.

In the fifth year of Zhenguan's New Year, Li Chengqian could only take the people from the East Palace to spend it together.

Li Tai built the Wei Palace, Li Ke built the Wu Palace, and he could only spend it with a large number of his subordinates, and Li Chengqian, who was already twelve years old, could not enter the palace for the New Year, so he could only take Li Tai and Li Ke into the palace the next day to pay New Year's greetings.

On Chinese New Year's Eve, there are songs and dances in the palace, and the East Palace is much more boring, and everyone gathers in the Mingde Hall to perform together.

The palace maids and eunuchs of the East Palace were extremely embarrassed by the prince's request for a "talent show", and a few eunuchs hummed a folk song, and after a few palace maids danced, the embarrassing feeling disappeared unconsciously.

Ashina Xue was still at a loss for the first time in the Central Plains, and under the urging of Li Chengqian, she could only sing a Turkic song.

Music actually has no borders, obviously I can't understand it, but I can still hear the grassland atmosphere in her songs.

At the end of the show, everyone began to prepare for making dumplings. Zhang Yun's knife was used well, so he took two kitchen knives to chop the meat filling, and a few palace maids and eunuchs who had helped with the kitchen and noodles, and those who were diligent had already gone to the kitchen to make a fire.

When she saw that Li Chengqian also picked up the dough, kneaded the dough and rolled out the dough, and could skillfully wrap beautiful dumplings, Ashina Xue was surprised: "You are a prince, you can cook?" ”

Glancing at the surprised Ashina Xue, Li Chengqian said: "It's strange to make your own food?" In fact, I think that in this world, there are many things to learn, such as martial arts, and the same is true for cooking, because you don't know when you will use these things. ”

"That's what you said to my Atta, and that's what he told me before."

Thinking of her father, Ashina Xue was a little sad. Although her father had told her many, many things before he died, telling her that dying in battle was the best place for a warrior, she was still very sad.

The Tang people have such a festival for the New Year, but the Turks do not, the midwinter season is a season to earn their lives, how can there be any leisure to celebrate the festival. The entire tribe, so far, is only her and her brother left.

Seeing Ashinaxue's sorrow, Li Chengqian said: "Don't think about it today, I can take you out of the palace tomorrow and let you meet your brother." ”

Ashina Xue was surprised: "You don't want to lock me up? ”

"I don't know why you always look down on the royal family of the Central Plains so much, I said that I would shut you up? Usually I don't let you go out for fear that you will be discovered, and then we will be punished together, but now it's the New Year, and the speaker won't feel uncomfortable, so even if you are exposed, you will be fine. ”

Knowing that she could go out to see her younger brother, Ashina Xue immediately became happy.

After wrapping a dumpling and putting it on the wooden board, Li Chengqian also smiled.

He Lu still needs to win over, if this kid can really become the leader of the Western Turks, then a guy who maintains a good impression of Datang can save Datang a lot of trouble.

When the bell rang, the banquet in the East Palace officially began, and Li Chengqian accepted everyone's bowing with an expressionless face before ordering the banquet.

The sixth year of Zhenguan has arrived.

When the peace lasted for a long time, the people could really begin to live and work in peace and contentment. When the peace lasts for a long time, all industries can flourish.

Continued peace is a good thing, but it can also bring bad things. Infighting without external troubles is a bad habit that the people of the Central Plains have not been able to get rid of for thousands of years.

Li Jing was the secretary of the military department for a long time, and then he was returned to Du Ruhui, and now the military generals are still in the book, and Li Daliang, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, is left. When the old gentleman died, it coincided with the imperial court formulating a plan for the disposal of the remains of soldiers in Goryeo and the former dynasty.

The military generals represented by Li Jing believed that they should send troops to Goryeo to force them to hand over the bones, but the civil officials represented by Fang Xuanling thought that it was not cost-effective to damage the lives of the soldiers of this dynasty for the sake of the remains of the previous dynasty, and they only needed to send an envoy to ask for it, so why did they have to send troops? The treasury, which was declining because of the troops in the Eastern Turks, finally recovered a little bit of vitality, and it was absolutely impossible to send troops at this time.

The military general wanted to send troops, but Wenchen stopped him, and the civil and military battles appeared.

The emperor also thought that now was not the time to conquer Goryeo, so he did not support the generals, but supported the ministers.

After the Sangwon Festival, during the new year's grand court meeting, the envoy to Goryeo's Sinonsa Temple, the prime minister of Muryeo, brought back a reply letter from Goryeo.

If you want bones, you can, but you need the emperor's personal endorsement, and the Central Plains will never be able to attack Goryeo.

"Lao Tzu has long said that those bastards in Goryeo will never hand over the bones so easily, now it's okay, I was slapped in the face when I went to the door, and I dared to ask the prime minister, now, are you comfortable?"

Cheng Yanjin's favorite thing is to fall into the well, so after the Xiangli Xuanyu finished speaking, he stood up and shook his poisonous tongue.

"Zhijie said it ugly, but the truth is correct, the old man has been dealing with Goryeo for a long time, and he knows how unpopular this race is. Even if they paid tribute to the Tang Dynasty and called themselves courtiers, they still didn't change their thieving hearts. When we started to attack the Eastern Turks last year, didn't the border of Goryeo change somewhat? For such a country, it can only be threatened, when will there be a compromise?

The old man hurried from the border army, but still didn't catch up to discuss this matter. Now that the court's request has been sent to Goryeo, and it has been rejected, good guy, the old man doesn't know if he has the face to go to the border. If the enemy general humiliates him with this matter, the old man doesn't know how to fight back. ”

Zhang Jian is the one who has the most say in Goryeo, because he is generally located on the northeast border of the Tang Dynasty, fighting against the Khitan Kumo Xi Jing Goryeo with one person, and the border is stable, I have to say that the means are good.

As soon as he opened his mouth, many military generals applauded loudly. The generals are just living on a face. The country is strong, and it has the confidence to fight against foreign enemies on the border, and even if it can't be defeated, it will not be discouraged. But it's not the same when the country loses face, and people lose face at the border.

Compared with the well-praised generals, Wenchen has a headache here. Zhang Jian's words were too desperate, because of the matter of retrieving the remains of the previous dynasty, he was unwilling to go back to the border to sit in town. Now as long as this guy stays in Chang'an for a day, Wenchen's side will suffer infamy. Because Zhang Jian said it, it was because Wenchen made him lose face and was ashamed to return to the border.

Fang Xuanling stood up and said angrily: "Gaoli's refusal really caught the old man and the others off guard, but as long as the documents of the imperial court are replaced by His Majesty's holy decree, the old man doesn't believe that they dare to disobey." As long as they disobey, what if we send troops again? ”

Zhang Jian still looked unforgiving: "Then you can lead the troops to the old house yourself, the old man has no face to go." ”

"Don't talk about Lao Zhang, I won't go to Lao Cheng."

"No, no."

"No, no."

....

Looking at the chaotic court, Li Chengqian was stunned. This is the court of Zhenguan? Why is it that when the courtiers discuss things, they are the same as quarrels in the market?

Li Shimin, who was on the throne, was like a bystander, allowing the ministers to quarrel with each other. Although the court has its laws, but things have to be solved after all, and arguing in the court is much better than fighting openly and secretly in private.

As for Zhang Jian's willfulness, it can only be said at this time that if he changes the dynasty, he may be convicted for this.

"Look, this is the court, this is the civil and military struggle. Since I ascended the throne, I have held a monopoly on power, and the military generals have only been a guard in name, but no longer have actual command rights. A military general without military power is just a false name. In fact, this is also their appeal for power, because only when the imperial court goes to war can they regain military power, and the civil ministers will also focus on state affairs and no longer erode the official position of the military. ”

Today's Li Chengqian did not sit with Fang Xuanling and others, but sat on a small bench beside the emperor. When he first went to court, he didn't know what such an arrangement meant, but now it is clear.

"My father asked me to sit here because I was afraid that my sons would also be involved?"

"That's certain, whether you stand on one side or stay neutral, you will fall behind, and now, the best way is to stay out of the matter."

Seeing that the quarrel was still going on, Li Shimin then asked in a low voice: "Tell me your opinion, do you think you should send troops?" ”

Should troops be sent or not?

Li Chengqian thought for a while and then said: "In the opinion of the ministers, it is better to send troops, there should be no compromise between countries, they are disrespectful to the Tang Dynasty, and they know that they are wrong only after cleaning up." There is no need to start a war, it is estimated that when our army approaches, they will send the bones back. ”

"It's too simple, the current King of Goryeo, Gao Jianwu, is not so weak, and the country that the millions of troops of the former Sui have not been able to attack is down, do you think we can deal with it so easily?"

"Erchen didn't think there was anything difficult to deal with in Goryeo, the failure of the former Sui was more due to the internal reasons of the former Sui. In the land of projectiles, it is a joke to be able to fight against our Datang. ”

"Tut-tut, it's not small, but it's too much to take for granted. Go back and take a good look at the history of Sui, how easy is Goryeo to deal with. ”

There was nothing to say, and watching the courtiers quarrel with the emperor's father, Li Chengqian could only sigh in his heart.

Is Goryeo hard to fight? Maybe it's difficult to attack because of the complexity of the forces over there, but it's not appropriate to add this power to Goryeo. In terms of strength alone, Goryeo may not be as good as Datang's. As for the bitter cold over there, it's a joke. In later generations, I did not travel to the three eastern provinces in winter. As long as you pay attention to keeping warm and maintaining fuel, maybe you will face off and Goryeo will collapse first.

But it was useless to say it, because in the eyes of all the civil servants and even the generals, Goryeo, who defeated the Sui Dynasty, was a very strong country, so strong that it could not even attack at will.

If the emperor did not express his position, the courtiers could only argue with reason.

It wasn't until the sun was in the middle of the sky that Li Shimin said indifferently: "Ladies and gentlemen, Goryeo must be recruited, but not now." It is planned to give Gao Jianwu to Goryeo, let him send the bones back, and if he dares to delay, he will send troops to fight! ”

Seeing that the emperor gave the verdict, the generals and Li Chengqian sighed.

The generals sighed because their ideas were rejected by the emperor, and on days when there was no war, the children of the military could not be placed, and there was generally no room for them to interfere in political affairs. Now I can only be accompanied by singing, dancing and drinking all day long, and I am messing around day by day.

However, it seems that the emperor intends to use the students of the academy to fill the imperial court, is he considering letting his own children transfer the text?

Li Chengqian sighed because of the poverty of the country, and the Tang people were warlike, but the supplies could not keep up, and they could not start a war. Now the decision of the imperial court is to let the people recuperate, and many places have pardoned taxes, just to repair the population lost at the end of the Sui Dynasty. In the case of paying attention to internal governance, it is necessary to start a war with the outside world.

Business can indeed boost productivity, but it takes time. Since the emperor lifted the ban on the nobles doing business, more people are still waiting, for fear that the emperor will release the ban again after investment, and all the money will be wasted.

Agricultural production cannot be improved at this time. The emergence of the Quyuan plough has indeed improved the cultivation ability, but the benefits brought by this improvement are only barely enough for some people to eat.

Agriculture cannot develop, and the rapid development of commerce will only lead to false prosperity. When the whole people are in business and no one is farming, there will be no place to cry.

At the end of the day, when you think about things yourself, you still take things for granted!

After the court meeting and walking on the way back to the East Palace, Li Chengqian had mixed feelings.

Yuan Laoxian lived more than a thousand years later, potatoes, corn, sweet potatoes and other things are good choices, but they are still in the Americas, and it is difficult to get them. Even if you get it, it may be the same as a banana, but it is not fully evolved.

When he entered the East Palace Gate, he almost bumped into a saluting person, and when he looked at it, Li Chengqian immediately became happy.

"Your Highness is in a trance, but you are suffering from the wind and cold?"

"I didn't suffer from the cold, I was just thinking about something. Feng Zhidai, what are you doing in the East Palace? ”

Feng Zhidai arched his hand and said: "My father has decided to leave for Lingnan, and I heard that some of the clans are not very peaceful and there are signs of rebellion. Before leaving, my father wanted to bid farewell to His Majesty and then visit the East Palace. ”

After speaking, Feng Zhidai sent a prayer post, and the date on it was tomorrow.

After receiving the post, Li Chengqian smiled and said, "It just so happens that Lone also has something to ask Gong Feng to discuss." You go back and tell Feng Gong that Lone will set up wine in the East Palace and see him off. ”

Feng Zhidai nodded, turned around and went to the palace again.

Looking at the back of Feng Zhidai leaving, Li Chengqian's heart blossomed.

Three crops of rice! Champa rice!

I remember that this thing seems to be in Vietnam, and now it seems to be the place of Linyi, Lingnan is actually not far from this place, as long as you get them back, you will definitely be able to increase the yield of agriculture!
