"It is better than opening up the territory, and it can go down in history for a thousand years." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Li Shimin's comment is not insignificant, just a foreign rice seed has been pulled up to such a height, and even Li Su's credit has soared.

However, Li Shimin did not exaggerate, but was very pertinent and objective.

Li Su's contribution is indeed better than opening up territory.

Soldiers open up territory, sweep the world, let the Tang Dynasty monarchs and ministers get the vast land, let the people get incomparable national pride, let the neighboring countries all the countries awe and submit, for the majestic emperor, this is the realm of a lifetime of dreams, can really do this, dreams can wake up with a smile, and can use any kind of posture and expression they like in front of the temple to comfort the ancestors and heroes, by the way to show off their achievements, of course, Mount Tai Feng Zen and the like are the proper meaning of the question.

However, no matter how vast the land is laid, no matter how great the feats are made, but all the Ming monarchs, after the joy will immediately calm down, they know very well that the land and merits are false, unrealistic, their own generation has been defeated, maybe the next generation will lose a faint monarch, thousands of years ago, the change of dynasties, probably these reasons, no one can guarantee that the future generations of emperors are as wise and martial as themselves, as long as one of the generations appears a faint monarch loser, all the money saved will be lost, Therefore, no matter how much land is laid, no matter how prosperous the prosperous era is seen in front of you, in the eyes of the truly wise emperor, they are only illusions after all, that is to say, even the emperor cannot guarantee how many years they have the property rights, the short is dozens, the long is hundreds, and they will eventually lose them one day.

But what about the rice seeds that Li Su discovered?

It is different from the land that has been defeated, it can be passed down for thousands of years, grain is the vitality of a regime or even a country, in this era dominated by agriculture, grain production almost determines the strength of the country, determines whether the national strategy is in the offensive or defensive, determines the rise and fall of a dynasty, it can be said that it is the cornerstone of consolidating the rule of the emperor.

A very simple truth is that the people who have food will never rebel, because there is no need to take this risk.

With the foundation of grain, the strategy of the entire Tang Dynasty will have to be reformulated, and it can even be considered to accelerate the speed of foreign plunder and occupation in the next few decades, as long as the land continues to expand, there will be more and more land that can be cultivated, and the new rice seeds introduced will be sown, and the grain output will also be more and more, and then continue to expand, continue to grow grain, snowballing bigger and bigger, forming a huge virtuous circle.

As long as the emperor within a few generations is not too mentally retarded, it is not a problem for three or five hundred years of the Tang Dynasty, and when it is at its peak, even if the emperor is really a faint monarch and a loser, a huge country, and a solid treasury, it is also a very difficult thing to defeat it, and it is only after losing two or three generations that it can see the appearance of going downhill.

Even if the country is defeated and the dynasty has changed, but the new rice varieties that have been promoted to the people have been popularized, the country is dead, the food will not die, even if there is a pessimistic idea, after a few years, the Tang Dynasty does not exist, and it has been replaced by other dynasties, and the people still have to serve bowls to eat, every time they pick up the bowl, when it comes to the seeds of this new grain, the name Li Shimin can not be avoided anyway, this is the political achievement of the Zhenguan Dynasty, after thousands of years, it doesn't matter how much stubble the dynasty has changed, the important thing is that once in the Tang Zhenguan Dynasty, His Majesty the Emperor has made an edict, Since then, there has been Zhenguan rice, and there is agronomy that specializes in the study of crops, and probably since then, the people have not starved.

From this point of view, Li Shimin, as the emperor, will have a good reputation that will be famous for generations to come, so Li Shimin will make Li Su's contribution so high this time, and even overshadow the opening of the territory. Because this credit is shared by Li Su and Li Shimin, if it is understated, how should it be determined in the history books in the future? How to highlight his Li Shimin's wisdom and martial arts?

Li Su has no fault, but has merit, so Li Ji's problem comes.

"Your Majesty, since Li Su has made meritorious contributions, why are you still imprisoning him in Dali Temple?" Li Ji said suspiciously.

Li Shimin sneered: "This is a grievance, it was he who took the initiative to ask to continue to stay in the prison of Dali Temple." ”

Li Ji was surprised: "Take the initiative to ask? He's crazy? ”

Li Shimin said lightly: "Although he has merit, but he did destroy the harmony, now the Tubo Prime Minister Lu Dongzan is preaching everywhere, saying that my Tang Dynasty has a traitorous minister, and everyone in the Tubo mission is indignant, Lu Dongzan said that he will settle accounts with Li Su, what do you think will be the consequences if I release Li Su now?" ”

Li Ji was stunned, and then Wen Wen's face suddenly became angry.

"Dare to find my nephew's bad luck, the minister tore up those miscellaneous pieces!"

Li Shimin squinted at him: "Then all the nations will be separated, and the war will not stop, and the lives will be ruined, and the beacons will be in flames, huh?" ”

Li Ji froze for a moment, and then snorted helplessly, silent.

Li Shimin sighed, looked at the sky in the distance outside the hall, and said lightly: "The bell still needs to be tied to the bell, there is still a mess in the family of the king of Jiangxia, these are all provoked by Li Su, and naturally he will still solve it, if it can't be solved, Li Su can't be spared, and Datang may also face a war......"

Li Ji was shocked and lost his voice: "Li Suchuang's disaster is so serious? ”

Li Shimin showed hesitation, and sighed for a long time: "Now even I don't know if what he did this time is considered a disaster, perhaps, it is a blessing or a curse for Datang...... Yesterday, Li Su played against me in the Ganlu Palace, if what he said is true, for the sake of the Tang Dynasty for eternity, this vicious battle, I am worth fighting! ”

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

Li Su is still in Dali Temple comfortably and comfortably as the uncle, he doesn't know what's wrong with him, he seems to have a bad taste unconsciously, so many servants and maids in the family don't call, but he likes to squat in the prison to call those jailers, looking at them with a helpless face and dare not speak up, and he can't get rid of his unlucky appearance if he doesn't like his eyes, he feels very happy, and his life is extremely fulfilling.

After squatting in prison for four days, Li Su already had a strong urge to retire in prison, except for a little unfreedom, it was perfect. Of course, the jailers of Dali Temple obviously don't think so, during the days when Li Su lived in, the jailers were going crazy, and it was said that it was nothing to treat Li Su as an uncle's attendant, and it was good to eat and drink, however, this Uncle Li in the prison was too picky about eating and drinking, and he was so picky that it was outrageous.

The taste of the meal must be delicious, there are meat and vegetarian, salty and light, not only that, the dishes are also exquisite, the meat dishes are equipped with white dishes, vegetarian dishes with green dishes, two meat dishes and three vegetarian dishes for each meal, placed on the table must be spread out in the shape of plum blossoms, the plum blossoms happen to be placed in the middle of a jar of wine, each dish has a place for each dish, can not make a mistake in the slightest, there is a new jailer who does not understand the rules, accidentally put the dishes a little messy, Li Su turned his face and lifted the table at that time, and the jailers had to laugh and make a new table for him.

Life has come like this, the so-called emperor's hegemony, the so-called success and fame, what is it compared to the leisure in the prison?

Lu Dongzan, the great minister of Tubo outside, preached everywhere that he wanted to settle accounts with Li Su, but he was an international friend, and the imperial court had no choice but to take him, so Li Su had to avoid him temporarily, and by the way, he thought of a way in the quiet prison, how to completely mess up the matter of peace with Tubo, so that the real Laqian ...... The prince and Princess Wencheng had a lover and eventually became married, and by the way, he honestly sent Zhenla's rice seeds and farming experts to Datang.

The method is really not easy to think, Li Su understands the danger of this matter, no matter what action the Tang Dynasty makes, it means a change in the eyes of the Tubo mission, and the change shows that the Tang Dynasty is not honest, Lu Dongzan's reaction must be extremely fierce, and if it continues, maybe he will really order the Tubo army on the border to advance into the territory of the Tang Dynasty, and a war will begin.

Li Su didn't want things to end like this, it was a lose-lose situation, and the lives of Guanzhong's children couldn't withstand the toss.

However, the rice seeds of Zhenla country must not be given up, this is a major event that benefits the future, Li Su rarely does a good thing for the benefit of the country and the people, I don't want to die before the thing starts, no face is a trivial matter, and it is the most regrettable not to fill the stomachs of the people.

Things have fallen into a dead circle like this, Tubo Songtsen Gampo is bound to win Princess Wencheng, but Zhenla Kingdom has what the Tang Dynasty urgently needs, on one side is a possible war, on the other side is the good deeds of the people of the Tang Dynasty to eat an extra mouthful of food, one evil and one good, left and right, no matter what choice is made, it is bound to be impossible to avoid offending the other side.

What Li Su has to do now is to come up with a way, a way to get the best of both worlds, the best of both worlds.

However, Li Su is just a mortal after all, this kind of death knot that the Jade Emperor can't even do, what can he do? After thinking about it for four whole days, my brain hurts when I think about it, and I still don't have a clue.

…………

…………

Li Su squatted in prison these days, there are many people who come to visit him, Xu Mingzhu and Dongyang don't talk about it, they must come every morning, the two daughters seem to have discussed it, the time of the visit is very perfectly staggered, as if they are queuing outside, one just reluctantly left, and the other came one after another, the same shh

In addition to Xu Mingzhu and Dongyang, there are also Wang brothers and Cheng Chumo and other gentlemen, only when people are in a difficult situation, will they clearly see who is a friend of wine and meat, and who is a confidant in life. Li Su felt very relieved, at least he had a good eye for people, all the friends who were quite friendly on weekdays came, and even Fang Yiai, who was slapped by him at the beginning, also came, everyone talked and laughed, and completely forgot the little unpleasantness at the beginning.

It's a pity that Li Zhi didn't come, Cheng Chumo told Li Su that in order to help him intercede, ask his father to see him, Li Zhi knelt outside the Ganlu Hall for an hour that night, it was a winter night, the cold wind was cold, Li Zhi later went back and had a high fever, and he was in a daze and half asleep, and he didn't see well until today, and the imperial doctors in the palace were so anxious.

Li Su was silent for a long time when he heard this, and was deeply moved by this little kid.

I used to think that Li Zhi was just a child, there were advantages and disadvantages in his personality, and the shortcomings and advantages were equally prominent, such as cowardice, indecision, etc., although Li Su treated him well, but he was still very dissatisfied with him in his heart, and always felt that he lacked a kind of momentum, and he was usually cowering and dangle in front of Li Shimin to brush his sense of existence, Li Shimin, who is extremely conceited, it is too late to draw him to death, how can he consider choosing this cowardly and timid child as the prince? This is also what Li Su felt most annoyed after standing in line.

But after knowing that Li Zhi knelt in the cold wind for an hour in order to help him intercede, and froze himself, Li Su suddenly realized that the little kid in this impression had actually grown up, he had his own ideas, had the responsibility of a man, and had the enthusiasm to stick a knife in the ribs for his friend.

After Li Zhi's righteous help this time, Li Su knew that he had been firmly tied to him in this life, and it was light to say that "sharing honor and disgrace" was light, and it could be said that "life and death were shared".

On the fifth day, guests came to visit Li Su in the prison.

This guest is a rare guest, the British Gong Li Ji.

Li Ji came very low-key, came alone in micro-suits, walked into the dark prison corridor and frowned, the general attacked the city and plundered the village for a lifetime, but he had never entered the cell, and his expression was very uncomfortable.

The jailer who led the way in front of him trembled, like a translator who brought a devil into the village, and he hunched his back and smiled earnestly and flatteringly.

Walking to Li Su's prison, Li Ji didn't say a word, only waved his hand lightly, and the jailer disappeared as if he had been pardoned.

Li Su was lying on the soft new mattress reading a book, had entered a state of transcendence, about to fall asleep, suddenly heard the movement outside the prison door, Li Su couldn't help but open his eyes, his eyes were like cold darts, very unhappy to shoot over, planning to see who was the bastard to death, dare to disturb his dreams, and then at a glance saw Li Ji standing quietly outside the prison door.

Li Su was taken aback, hurriedly got up, and saluted Li Ji.

"Uncle Li, how did you get to such a place? It's too bad luck here, it's not appropriate for you to come, and there is no reason for the elders to condescend to the juniors, it's really tormenting the boy. ”

Li Ji didn't say anything, but his eyes stared directly at Li Su's face, from hair to eyebrows, from nose to lips, any small detail of Li Su's face was carefully looked at by him.

Li Su was a little hairy by Li Ji's gaze, only to feel that the cold hair behind his back exploded, Li Ji's gaze was too terrible, and the meaning in it was very rich, like regret, like nostalgia, and like feeling sad, all kinds of emotions were expressed on the face, making the facial muscles distorted and deformed, which looked very terrible.

Li Su was frightened, his first reaction was to run, but as soon as he turned around, he immediately gave up this unrealistic idea.

He forgot that he was in prison, and theoretically, he couldn't get half a foot away.

"Uh, Uncle Lee, you...... You okay? Li Suqiang said with a smile.

Li Ji still stared at his face for a long time, and muttered: "Like, it's really too similar!" When I first saw you, it felt familiar, but it wasn't an illusion......"

The voice of muttering was too small, Li Su didn't hear it clearly, but saw that Li Ji's eyes suddenly turned red, and then burst into tears.

Li Su was so frightened by his tears that he almost collapsed to the ground.

"Uncle Li, is it ...... Your Majesty wants to kill me? Li Su asked in a trembling voice.

You can't blame Li Su for being a villain, although he had a very happy conversation with Li Shimin in the Ganlu Hall a few days ago, and he also introduced new rice seeds to him, which can barely be regarded as a meritorious service, and the destruction and kinship he once did should be over.

But who in the world can really guess the emperor's mind? Li Su really knows too well the emperor's fault, this moment he will talk to you and laugh and laugh and the sun is shining, and the next moment he may suddenly turn his face and cut you with a knife, this is the so-called "unpredictable power", in layman's terms, it is actually a neurosis.

Seeing that the elders who were very close to him on weekdays came to see him in prison for some reason, muttered a bunch of inexplicable words, and finally shed tears inexplicably, the whole process was very weird, and anyone who changed it would probably can't help but think in this direction, Rao is Li Su's heart is strong, and at this time, he was also scared that one Buddha was born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven.

Li Su's frightened reaction finally brought Li Ji back to his senses, and then he was stunned: "Why did Your Majesty kill you?" ”

Li Su: "...... Why are you crying? ”

"The old man remembered some of the past, and he was embarrassed......"

Li Su: "............"

If it weren't for the cell door, Li Suzhen would have picked up the low table in the cell and smashed it on the old guy's head.

You are okay to run to my cell door and cry and sigh, are you sick?

Li Ji sniffed, wiped away his tears, calmed down, stared at Li Su for a long time, shook his head, and continued to murmur: "She does look like her, but this temperament is ...... She has been clean and self-loving all her life, stubborn and strong, your father is diligent and honest, and the children born to the two should not be such bastards no matter what. ”

Li Su blinked, still not hearing what Li Ji was saying.

Today, Li Ji has been chattering since he entered the cell, Li Su feels that he is likely to be sick, mentally, there is a kind of disease called "post-war psychological trauma" in later generations, Li Ji led the army to fight all his life, and the enemy troops who died under his strategy are not thousands? After killing so many enemies, and the deaths were different, and the postures were different, Li Ji probably had a psychological shadow, so he fell ill and ran to Dali Temple in a daze to scare him......

Li Su's thoughts were infinitely divergent and extended, and he was already speculating on Li Ji's abnormal performance today with the worst malice.

Li Ji didn't realize it, stared at Li Su for a long time, and finally regained his senses, looked at him with a beard, and never mentioned the real kinship between each other, but said lightly: "Now Chang'an City is making a lot of trouble, all because you broke the matter of Tubo and your relatives, and the prince of Jiangxia is also in prison, this matter is not small, Your Majesty said that the bell still needs to be tied to the bell, how to solve this matter, do you have an idea?" ”

Li Su shook his head: "The little nephew has been thinking about it for a few days, but there is no good plan. ”

Li Ji snorted and said: "It's hard for you, but the trouble you caused by yourself should indeed be borne by yourself, the man's husband, one person does things and one person is responsible, without this kind of treatment, he is not worthy of being a member of the Li family." ”

Li Su looked at him in confusion, and his heart became more and more strange.

The words are right, and the three views are so strange that Li Su doesn't want to associate with him, but Li Ji's tone of saying this is weird, as if ...... Training sons in general?

"It's up to the little nephew to bear it, otherwise who else can I rely on?" Li Su replied with a wry smile.

Li Jiruo smiled meaningfully and said: "I have suffered you in the past, and there will be a day when I will come to Jitai in the future, Li Su, in this Chang'an City, you are not alone." (To be continued.) )
