Li Su is sure that Li Shimin will not chat at all. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Fortunately, this guy is the emperor, no matter how ugly the words are, others don't dare to do anything to him, if he is not the emperor, with his upright way of speaking, he will definitely end up being beaten with a sack in the dark alley.

A thing that Li Su thought was very high-end, but when it came to Li Shimin's mouth, it became useless, and the family was involved in the case, is it wrong to close the door and thank the guests? Is it wrong to prove one's innocence? As for the gifts given by the deputy envoy of Tibet...... Did I put a knife on his neck and force him to give it away? Is it okay for people to come to the door with their own dead faces? Two carts of gifts are placed at the gate, can I not accept them? Don't charge more and be rude, Datang is a state of etiquette, what does the word "etiquette" mean? It's that someone else gives you a gift, you can't refuse, and if you refuse, it will be out of order, which is called the state of etiquette.

couldn't say a belly of sophistry, and Li Su didn't dare to say it, if Li Shimin really heard these words, it was estimated that he would be hung on the flagpole in front of Taiji Palace to calm him down for a few days.

"Your Majesty forgives your sins, Your Majesty...... I did receive a gift from the Tibetan mission, and I was about to present it to His Majesty......" Li Su sighed, reluctantly took out a gift slip from his arms, and presented it with both hands.

As early as when he accepted the gift from the Tubo people, Li Su knew that it was impossible to hide this matter, and the gift list had already been prepared.

It's just that the gift list is in Li Shimin's hands, and those heavy gifts are afraid that they won't be able to stay in the Li family's treasury. Li Su never dared to look up to Li Shimin's temperament, this guy has always been a black eater and doesn't pay attention to it.

Sure enough, Li Shimin honestly and unceremoniously took the gift list, squinted his eyes at the gift list, and then sneered: "One hundred high-grade opals, one hundred high-grade agate, ho!" There are also 100 crystal glass cups, and Tubo is very good-handed. ”

Li Su lowered his head and pouted quietly, what kind of crystal glass, isn't it a small glass, and it is also the kind of glass that is not too transparent and has a lot of impurities, this is the most eye-catching of all the gifts, I don't know why, in this era, whether it is the Tang Dynasty or foreign countries, it is used as a treasure, it is said that a glass in Chang'an East City sells for two dollars, it is really incomprehensible.

"I've sent you, Your Majesty, and I've sent you the hundred crystal glass cups." Li Su did not hesitate to lose the car to protect the handsome.

"Bastard! Who am I? Am I the kind of faint king who wants to fight the property of his courtiers? Li Shimin suddenly became angry.

"The minister lost his words, and His Majesty forgives the sin." Li Su lowered his eyebrows.

Li Shimin glanced at the gift list again, and sneered: "It's really generous, this gift list is estimated, I'm afraid it is not less than 20,000 yuan, right?" Zizheng, it seems that you are very valuable in the hearts of the Tubo Prime Minister. ”

Li Su hurriedly said: "No matter how valuable it is, the minister is also His Majesty's courtier." ”

Li Shimin snorted: "I, the emperor, is very poor, but I can't give you such a heavy gift." ”

"Don't give a penny, the minister is also His Majesty's courtier, and the things bought with heavy gifts are often disloyal, and the loyal minister is priceless."

Li Shimin's face finally softened, and he said with a smile: "This sentence is well said, although people are a little confused, they have a delicate heart." ”

Qu Zhi flicked the gift list, and Li Shimin smiled and said: "Zizheng can see why the Prime Minister of Tubo gave you such a heavy gift?" ”

"I can see it, he wants to buy the ministers, the relationship between the Tang Dynasty and Tubo is now delicate, and they are also enemies and friends, so the Tubo Prime Minister wants to bury the chess pieces in advance in the Tang Dynasty Hall, if the two countries are at war in the future, the chess pieces of the Tang Dynasty can be used by him at a critical time to reverse the defeat, I have to say, this Tubo Prime Minister is far-sighted......"

Li Shimin's eyes showed appreciation, and he nodded: "Yes, although you are young, you can see things clearly, and you can live up to the name of heroism......"

Immediately, Li Shimin's face turned blank and said in a deep voice: "Knowing that he wants to buy you, why do you dare to accept his gifts?" ”

Li Su blinked and said cutely: "Your Majesty, receiving gifts and being bought,...... Does it matter? He had to give it, and the minister naturally accepted it, he wanted to buy me, and it depended on whether the minister agreed or not, there is no reason to buy and sell forcefully in the world......"

Li Shimin's speech is sluggish, this divine logic ...... Curious.

Li Su grinned and said, "For Tubo, the minister is a wolf that can't be fed well, Your Majesty doesn't need to worry too much. ”

Li Shimin was stunned for a long time and sighed faintly.

In my court, how did I get rid of all the goods on such a No. 1 festival, tsk, so ashamed!

Shame, some people have it, some people don't, Li Shimin's shame is obviously more than Li Su, thinking about Li Su's shameless behavior, I feel that my face is gloomy, but I can't argue with it, after all, it is indeed a gift forcibly given by Tubo, people have a lot of money, they like dry meat buns and beating dogs, what can you do?

So Li Shimin simply put aside this issue and changed the topic.

"Zizheng said well, the Tang Dynasty and Tubo, is indeed also a friend and foe, the distinction between friend and foe depends on the situation, now it seems to be a brother and sister with my Tang Dynasty, but I know that this kind of friendly days between the two countries will not be too long, Tubo is too close to the Tang Dynasty, many of which are involved, and there is a Tuyuhun in the middle, the Tang Dynasty soldiers have been desperately expanding their territory over the years, which will inevitably make the neighbors uneasy, the weak neighbors swallow their anger, but the strong neighbors will not endure, such as Tubo, so Tubo will never be really friendly with the Tang Dynasty, On the other hand, Datang has always been regarded as a strong enemy and a big trouble, on the other hand, Datang is expanding outward, and it is naturally on guard against powerful neighbors, and the so-called 'friendship' is just something to talk about on the table. ”

Li Shimin sighed and said: "The Tang Dynasty is the heart of the neighboring country, following the Han Dynasty and the pro-system, over the years, many princesses have been sent out to make peace with foreign countries, in order to stabilize the border for a while, and the plan for a hundred years, the same is true for Tubo, to be honest, Songtsan Gampo wants to make peace, I am unwilling to agree in my heart, these barbarians are too rude, in the early years, in order to marry the princess, even did not hesitate to start a war, not only almost destroyed the Tuyuhun Khanate, but also forcibly occupied my Tang Songzhou, such a strong act to seek marriage, How could I endure this? But after consulting with the courtiers of the three provinces, I had to agree to Songtsan Gampo's request, after all, the border of the Tang Dynasty must be stable, and after the destruction of Xue Yantuo, the treasury of the Tang Dynasty is empty, and it really can't support the next big war......

Li Su hesitated for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, with all due respect, there is peace and war between countries, and the role of a woman in it is very weak......"

Li Shimin raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Oh? What is Zizheng's high theory? I would like to hear it, come to someone, and serve it with pen and ink. ”

Li Su's eyelids jumped, this is the official posture of the monarch and the minister, and it is a bit serious.

So Li Su hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the minister just said casually, Your Majesty should not take it seriously, whether it is right or wrong, it does not need to be seen in the history books." ”

Li Shimin laughed and said: "Since I ascended the throne, I have always been to collect good advice from all directions, so I have achieved the merit of Zhenguan Shengzhi. That's why the dark one, the bias is also', the so-called 'listening is clear', that's it, this is also the primary ability of being a Ming monarch, otherwise, hehe, do you think that Wei Zheng's old puppet scolded me for more than ten years, not only did I not kill him, but also respected him as a national soldier? ”

Li Su hurriedly said yes.

Speaking of which, Li Shimin's ability to be scolded is indeed superior, speaking from the heart, if Li Su were the emperor, this kind of guy who has nothing to do but scold the emperor every day has been tortured and killed by him a hundred times, a hundred times, it can be seen that His Majesty the Heavenly Khan, who is admired by all nations...... Have a slight masochistic tendency?

While speaking, the Chinese scholar hurried to the place with a pen and paper, and after seeing the ceremony, he sat down not far from the two of them, calmly spread out the paper on the low table, studied the ink, and waited quietly with the pen.

Li Su sighed, had to dress up and sit upright, no way, this is the rule, once there is a scene of the monarch and the minister playing right, every dialogue between him and Li Shimin will be recorded on the paper, and it will be included in the history books in the future, as an auxiliary evidence of the emperor's governance of the country, the title is probably "Li Zizheng admonishes Taizong to play right" or something, so I have to be serious.

Li Shimin's expression at the moment also became serious, after all, this is a big topic, and there is a record of the Chinese scholar next to it, if it is still a hippie smiling face, it will inevitably lose its solemnity, and when he looks at the history book before he dies, it describes the emperor's expression when he plays the right thing for no reason, and it hurts to say something like "Taizong Hippie Smiling Face".

So at this moment, Li Shimin also straightened his clothes, and waved away the palace maid who fanned him, the hem of his robe was also straightened, and the two hairy hairy legs that were exposed were also taken back, looking like a serious emperor.

"It seems that Zizheng has quite an objection to the harmony system, and I would like to hear Zizheng's high opinion." Li Shimin said in a deep voice.

Li Su pursed his lips, and after a moment of words, he said slowly: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that it is not advisable to be friendly with relatives. First of all, the relationship between countries is not dependent on a woman and relatives to decide whether to be peace or war, the 'country' is greater than the 'family', it is impossible to give up the interests of the whole country for her because of a foreign concubine accepted by the emperor, such as a fertile land of no man, he wants, others also want, who does this land of no man belong to? In the end, it is inevitable to rely on the victory or defeat of the war to decide who is the master, and he will never take a step back because he has a foreign concubine in his family, even if the emperor himself agrees, the subjects of the whole country will not agree, because this land is not the land of the emperor, but the land of the whole country, and if he gives up, it is equivalent to the interests of the whole country are also given up by him, in other words, this kind of emperor who abolishes the prince for personal reasons will not reign for too long......"

Li Shimin's expression moved slightly, Li Su's words, since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, no one has really said it, from the emperor to the courtiers, they don't think there is anything wrong with the pro-system, only Li Su said different ideas today, and it is very reasonable.

Zizheng continued, and I listened to you. Li Shimin's expression was more sincere than just now, and even his sitting posture was extremely upright, as if he were a national guest.

The Chinese scholars on the side worked hard and wrote a big article.

The hall was very quiet, Li Shimin didn't speak, and waited quietly for Li Su to speak.

"The so-called 'country', the emperor's power is bestowed, and all the people are obedient, His Majesty is the emperor, naturally understands that the emperor is not only eating, drinking and enjoying himself, his responsibility is heavier than anyone else, he must seek the well-being of the powerful and ordinary people in the country, and make meritorious deeds, which is to say, 'the cultivator has his land, the dweller has his house, and the owner has his property', "Li" says: 'The old man does not have only his relatives, not only his son. So that the old have the end, the strong have use, the young have grown, the widows, the lonely and the sick, all have support', Your Majesty, the emperor has done this step, only then can he be regarded as a Ming monarch, a holy monarch, the magnates and the people will be extremely loyal to support, on the other hand, if because of a foreign and close concubine, and give up the land that originally belonged to him, give up the war that could bring benefits to the country, and choose to compromise and retreat, this monarch, is it still a qualified monarch? Will the magnates and the people still support him? ”

"Therefore, the minister thinks that peace and affinity are often very fragile for the two countries, the more wise the monarch, the more he will not give up the national interests because of women, and the role of the Tang Dynasty to send the princess and relatives is really ......"

Li Su said, looked up at Li Shimin, and saw Li Shimin's gloomy face, Li Su hurriedly said: "The minister has lost his words, Your Majesty forgives you." ”

Li Shimin shook his head: "Zizheng is really high, rest assured, I don't have any dissatisfaction, but I am reflecting on the pros and cons of the national policy of the Tang Dynasty and his relatives, you go on to say, it doesn't hurt to be outspoken, loyal to the country's advice, I will only be like a rain, overjoyed, how can there be any reason to add guilt?" ”

Li Su smiled, Tian Khan's open-mindedness and temperament have seen it again today.

Born in such an era, Li Su is willing to do something for it, because it is worth doing it himself.

So Li Su continued: "Having said that, Your Majesty might as well think about the person Songtsen Gampo again...... Songtsen Gampo Zhenguan three years was promoted to Tubo Zanpu, has been in power for more than ten years, His Majesty think about what Songtsen Gampo has done in the past ten years to govern Tibet, by heart, the minister feels that this person is indeed a wise lord, these more than ten years to follow my Tang Dynasty official system and military system, the country set up a minister, deputy minister, push' Ten good laws', awarded the sixth class medal to decorate the body, reorganize the army in the country, follow the military system of the Tang Dynasty, divide thousands of households as a unit, etc., these measures to govern the country and the army are very wise, it can be seen that this person is not the lord of mediocrity, Your Majesty, so the British lord, must be very assertive, will not be swayed by the opinions of others, every decision he makes must be beneficial to the country, the Tang Dynasty sent the princess and relatives, maybe in the short term can be peaceful and friendly, but the two countries are adjacent, too much intersection, whether it is the competition for Tuyuhun, or the trade between the two countries, or the friction of a city and a place on the border, once a dispute is encountered, with the temperament of Songtsen Gampo, and the strong army of Tubo support, how could he choose to compromise for the sake of a mere amiable princess? ”

Li Shimin's face was not good, and he snorted angrily.

Li Su smiled silently, he saw Li Shimin's inner monologue,...... He must be scolding Songtsen Gampo for being a plagiarism dog. (To be continued.) )
