It is destined to have a feud with the eldest grandson Wuji, and in the battle for succession in the court, Li Su and the eldest grandson Wuji are in a completely different camp, and the relationship naturally becomes hostile.

Think about many years ago, Li Su and the eldest grandson family cooperated in perfume trading, the so-called "partnership", everyone only regarded it as a reason, what was really for this layer of relationship, perfume trading became a link of interest between the two families, Li Su worked hard to partner with the Cheng family, and the eldest grandson family, in fact, it was also for his own safety, and the things he invented were selflessly taken out, and everyone earned money together, and the two families had one article and one martial arts, which was equivalent to letting Li Su gain a firm foothold in the two camps of civil and military officials in the court.

Li Su's layout is correct, in fact, from the ninth year of Zhenguan to the present, in the past ten years, Li Su has basically not made enemies in the court, in addition to Li Su's cautious and sleek character, the two partnership transactions also played a very important role in it.

This time, that time.

Now, Li Su is growing in the middle of the court, and more importantly, he and the eldest grandson Wuji are assisting different princes, and the contradictions will naturally slowly intensify and come to the surface, Feng Du's assassination case has set off such a big storm, in fact, this case is a game between Li Su and the eldest grandson Wuji.

At present, it seems that the eldest grandson Wuji lost the chess game, and Li Suxiao won half of the game, but the hatred that was formed was irrepressibly deeper and deeper.

In front of the gate of Taiji Palace, Li Su and the eldest grandson Wuji saluted each other, smiled at each other, and then, the two passed by and went against each other.

…………

Li Su offered Li Shimin the plan of leveling the Western Regions and raising grain and grass, and I have to say that both plans are very feasible, especially the financing of grain and grass, which Li Shimin and everyone in this era have never heard of.

The eldest grandson Wuji and Fang Xuanling entered the Ganlu Palace, the three of them met, and Li Shimin repeated Li Su's original words, and the two rulers were amazed.

The Eastern Expedition to Goguryeo is a battle that must be started, the lack of grain and grass in the country is a thorn in the heart of the monarch and ministers, seeing that the day of the Eastern Expedition is getting closer and closer, but the problem of grain and grass has not been properly solved, the two prime ministers are more and more anxious day by day, not early or late, Li Su at this time to offer a plan to raise grain, and immediately solved the urgent need of Li Shimin and the two prime ministers.

Rao is the eldest grandson Wuji and Li Su have now formed a deep enmity, but the identity of the eldest grandson Wuji is the prime minister after all, the pillar of the country, he can still distinguish which is more important, the prime minister has the magnanimity of the prime minister, never nonsense because of others, as long as the attention raised is correct, the big personal enmity can be put aside first.

It is not surprising that after the three of them sat in the palace and discussed for a while, they immediately agreed to Li Suxian's strategy, and the two prime ministers were very efficient, and after leaving the Ganlu Palace, they immediately went to Shangshu Province and began to prepare for the division of labor.

Soon, the envoys of the small rice-producing countries in the south, such as the Zhenla Kingdom and the Linyi Kingdom, were urgently summoned by the Shangshu Province, and in the evening of the same day, the two prime ministers of the Shangshu Province personally came forward and began the first negotiations with the countries on the purchase of grain and grass.

After all, the vision of people in this era is not so wide, including Li Shimin and the eldest grandson Wuji Fang Xuanling, these monarchs and ministers, the "world" in their eyes is just a Chinese territory, maybe it can be a little farther, looking at neighboring countries such as Tubo, Goguryeo, etc., which are threatening to their own society, most of the time, the monarchs and ministers look at the neighbors with a little hostility, and the first thing that comes to mind is whether we can conquer him by force and incorporate the territory of this country into our own territory.

In addition to the war, the Tang Dynasty was not uninvolved in commercial trade, otherwise Li Shimin would not have been furious because the Silk Road was cut off by a small country in the Western Regions, and he did not hesitate to launch two wars to sweep the Western Regions to ensure the smooth flow of the Silk Road.

In this era, the commercial trade of neighboring countries is not nothing, but most of them are limited to the scope of the people, such as the various gate valve families of the Tang Dynasty, including Cheng Biting Jin Changsun Wuji and other emerging gate valves, each family has several large-scale caravans, specializing in the exchange of goods between the Tang Dynasty and neighboring countries, buying and selling and exchanging the products of various countries to make profits, simply put, the business of the Tang Dynasty is a private business, but the state has rarely participated.

Although the Tang Dynasty is a relatively open era, but the court is all scholars, these people know the necessity of business behavior to the country, but they still despise the matter of resisting businessmen in their hearts, because the sage said that "the villain is said to be profitable", so they can accept private commerce, and even their own family has secretly raised several caravans to do "Yu Yuli" trading, if the commercial behavior rises to the level of country to country, they have never thought so.

I always feel that our own products are abundant, self-sufficient, and we lack nothing, but those neighboring countries should come to us, which is in line with the style of the country, Li Su said that the initiative to buy grain and grass from other countries undoubtedly opened the door to a new world for Li Shimin and the two pragmatic prime ministers, but for other courtiers, the attitude is different.

The next day, Li Su's policy of buying grain spread, and the court suddenly exploded.

Some people are in favor, some people are against, those who are in favor are very pragmatic people, the national interests are supreme, and the lack of food in the Eastern Expedition is something that everyone knows, and now Li Su proposed to buy grain from neighboring countries to solve the urgent need, these pragmatic courtiers are naturally willing to solve such a big trouble, and the soldiers of the three armies finally have no worries when they are desperate for the Eastern Expedition, and the Eastern Expedition to Goguryeo has not started, but the Tang Dynasty has increased the chance of winning by three points.

In the eyes of these supporters, Li Su has once again made a great contribution to the Tang Dynasty, and even many old generals feel that if the Eastern Expedition is won in the future, the first name recorded in the merit book should be Li Su.

But there are also a lot of opponents, what Li Shimin didn't expect is that there are a lot of opponents, most of these people are people in the gate, and what is even more surprising is that even the students of Guozijian have made trouble, especially Kong Yingda, the priest of Guozijian, has the most fierce opposition, and Kong Yingda's reason for opposition is very ethereal, which boils down to four words, "lose your body and humiliate the country".

In this era, there is no so-called "racial discrimination", but in the country of Datang, everyone has more or less racial discrimination in their hearts, of course, it is themselves who are elevated, and it is neighboring countries that are discriminated. Naturally, no matter at any time, anywhere, from any angle, the Tang people are majestic and tall, and they can only look up and worship, even if an ordinary ordinary person walks on Chang'an Avenue and is accidentally stepped on by Hu Shang, he has the confidence to slap it over, and shouts angrily, "Pifu is blind?" ”

The country's strong confidence is like this. The more powerful the country, the more arrogant it becomes, and it simply cannot accept this kind of policy of buying grain, which seems to be asking for help from a small barbarian country.

Although Li Su proposed normal national commercial trade, in the eyes of these courtiers headed by Kong Yingda, Li Su's policy of purchasing grain was simply a traitorous act of losing power and humiliating the country, increasing the morale of others, and destroying his own prestige.

So, in the court the next day, Kong Yingda jumped out, looking like Wei Zheng's ghost, filled with indignation and tears, angrily reprimanded Li Su's policy of losing power and humiliating the country, and kept kowtowing, asking Li Shimin to take Li Su, a minister of calamity to the country, into Dali Temple to be punished.

The court meeting has become Kong Yingda's one-person performance, although Lao Kong is old, but the play is very full, it can be said that the old drama bones of three dynasties, a painful performance is sincere, which really makes the emperor silent and the courtiers cry.

Li Shimin was very moved by Kong Yingda, a loyal minister with an iron heart in the court, but still refused.

Kong Yingda's tearful performance was not over yet, Li Shimin finally couldn't help it and shouted him back.

The word "drink back" is enough to prove how impatient Li Shimin is, not long after Wei Zhenggang passed away, I finally passed a few days of self-release, and now you look like Wei Zheng's ghost is deliberately disgusting to me?

If it weren't for the fact that Kong Yingda was a descendant of the sage Confucius, Li Shimin would have chopped him on the spot.

What "losing one's body and humiliating the country" and what "degrading one's own national prestige" are all extremely pedantic statements; compared with the enmity between the two dynasties, compared with the hearts of the people in the world, and compared with Li Shimin's personal ideals, what is it to buy some grain from neighboring countries? Not to mention that there is no loss of power and humiliation of the country, even if there is, as long as it is not too excessive, Li Shimin is willing to make the same compromise as the Weishui Alliance back then, and now he only has the great cause of the Eastern Crusade in his eyes, and the suppression of Goguryeo is the first place, and all state affairs in the country must serve the word "Eastern Crusade", which is the bottom line, and there is no negotiation.

Therefore, Li Shimin repelled Kong Yingda fiercely, because this old man had hindered his great cause of the Eastern Crusade, if it weren't for Confucius's big face, Kong Yingda might not be able to escape prison today.

Kong Yingda is not Wei Zheng after all, and he doesn't have the courage to die a big death, seeing Li Shimin's angry expression, Kong Yingda, who has been through the storm for a long time, immediately noticed that something was wrong, and he probably had touched the reverse scale of the Son of Heaven today, so Kong Yingda retreated to the court very honestly, and did not dare to squeak again until the scattered dynasty.

***************************************************************

A court storm that was about to involve Li Su was eliminated by Li Shimin's angry shout.

Li Shimin's arbitrary character made the turmoil calm down very quickly, and even though some of the courtiers still held an opposing attitude, after seeing Li Shimin's performance towards Kong Yingda, the opponents all shut up, and whether they agreed or opposed, Li Shimin gave the order to buy grain and grass, and the court and court reached an agreement to make concerted efforts to regard the purchase of grain and grass from neighboring countries as an important state affair and conscientiously implement it.

On the third day, Li Su was summoned by Li Shimin again.

It can be said that only Li Su is the only one who understands the process best, the Eastern Crusade is imminent, there is not much time left, everything must be vigorous and resolute, the purchase of grain and grass seems simple, but in fact it is very cumbersome, first of all, it is a negotiation with various countries, it must be compared, followed by the transportation of grain and grass, how to hand over between the Datang states and cities on the way, how to protect the safety of grain and grass, how to prevent the grain from being damp and moldy due to climatic or geographical reasons during transportation, etc. These are all problems that the Tang Dynasty monarchs should face.

This batch of grain is too important to Li Shimin, and it can be said that it is a matter of success or failure in the Eastern Expedition, and Li Shimin will never allow any negligence in every detail to cause the consequences of success or failure.

Since the suggestion was put forward by Li Su, then Li Su's opinion should be solicited first for all matters related to this batch of grain, and in this matter, Li Su's opinion is very important.

The details are very laborious to say, in the Ganlu Palace, Li Su put away his lazy temperament, and it is rare to focus on seriously discussing with Li Shimin and the two prime ministers, any possible accident or details Li Su took out, and also proposed a solution, of course, Li Shimin and the two prime ministers did not show a bloody picture of worship, Li Su's proposed solutions in their opinion some are feasible, some are not feasible, and the four monarchs and ministers have a fierce dispute in the palace.

From morning to evening, at noon, he was entertained by Li Shimin and ate a royal lunch in the palace, Li Su was awkward, and the meals in the palace were not the right appetite, looking at Li Su's tragic expression like being given suicide, and he couldn't wait to swallow it after eating a mouthful of food and chewing it a few times, Li Shimin was so angry that his teeth were itching, and the eldest grandson Wuji and Fang Xuanling laughed happily, and none of the four monarchs and ministers had eaten enough for lunch.

In the evening, the details of the purchase and transportation of grain were still not discussed, and the eldest grandson Wuji looked at the sky, so the three of them said goodbye to Li Shimin with interest.

The most tricky trouble of the Eastern Crusade has been solved by a small half, Li Shimin has been in a very good mood these days, his smile is much more real than before, and he waved his hand to let the eldest grandson Wuji and Fang Xuanling go first, but Li Su was left alone.

A fine light flashed in the eyes of the two prime ministers at the same time, and the eldest grandson Wuji glanced at Li Su with a deep smile, and then left with a smile.

In the main hall, Li Su hung his head a little apprehensively.

Recently, he is a little afraid of being alone with Li Shimin, after all, his handle is held by him, this handle is a time bomb for Li Su, maybe when Li Shimin will be impatient, stab this layer of window paper, and the friendly and friendly relationship between the two will be completely over, and Li Su's ending is probably only two, one is death, and the other is ugly death.

Fortunately, Li Shimin did not plan to pierce this layer of window paper for the time being, at least not today.

Squinting slightly, Li Shimin looked at the golden sunset outside the hall, with a gloomy expression on his face, but he didn't seem to realize that Li Su was still waiting for him to speak.

Li Su was also anxious, but he didn't dare to urge, he was sure that Li Shimin at this moment must have sublimated from an ordinary emperor to a literary emperor, and he didn't know what he was feeling in his heart.

Li Shimin is not in a hurry, but Li Su is in a hurry,—— it is already evening when the lights are in hand, and seeing that the city gate is about to close, if you don't let me out of the palace, do you plan to let me eat another meal of pig food in the palace?

Finally, Li Shimin let out a leisurely sigh, Li Su was in good spirits, and unconsciously straightened his waist and sat upright, he knew that the emperor of literature and art had finally returned to the state of an ordinary emperor.

"Time flies......" Li Shimin sighed.

"Poof—cough, cough, cough!" Li Su immediately sprayed, and then hurriedly saluted: "Your Majesty forgives your sins, forgives your sins, and the minister has lost his manners." ”

The literary and artistic emotion of a sad stomach was destroyed by Li Su in an instant, Li Shimin's expression froze for a moment, and then glared at him fiercely with a murderous face.

Li Su hurriedly changed the topic and said cautiously: "Your Majesty left the minister alone, I don't know if it is for ......"

Li Shimin snorted and said, "I have something serious to tell you." ”

"Your Majesty, please speak, and the ministers will listen to me."

Li Shimin stroked his long beard, pondered for a moment, and said: "A few days ago, there were a lot of state affairs and family affairs, and there was something that I said I wanted to do, but I never did it. ”

Li Su was aware of this, and carefully answered: "Your Majesty means ...... Portrait of the hero of Lingyan Pavilion? Uh, the minister lost his words, it doesn't have to be Lingyan Pavilion, any pavilion is fine. ”

Li Shimin glanced at him with a smile and said, "Although I don't know why you fall in love with Lingyan Pavilion in the palace, since you proposed the idea of the portrait of the hero, I will reward you with this face, so I will call it 'Portrait of the Hero of Lingyan Pavilion'." ”

Li Su saluted and thanked him very routinely, but a thought flashed in his heart.

The portrait of the hero is not erected early, not erected late, but it is chosen to stand when the crusade is about to be erected, it seems that in the portrait of the hero of the Lingyan Pavilion, the weight of the political implication is getting heavier and heavier.
