Chapter 358: I like this reason
Li Chengqian's rare bravery and penetrating analysis impressed Empress Changsun.
She nodded and said, "Cheng Qian, the queen mother is not a foolish person, she knows how to choose. ”
Li Chengqian said gratefully: "Thank you, Queen Mother." ”
Empress Changsun asked, "Cheng Qian, what's the matter with all this money?" ”
Li Chengqian said: "This money is from the sons and fifth brothers, as well as all the princes and princesses. Erchen had a suggestion to ask the queen mother to donate the money and build a clinic on every street in Chang'an City to facilitate the people to see a doctor. This is a great merit and will surely win the praise of the people.
Mother, what other thing can be more than the sincere praise of the people, and pray for the blessing of the mother? ”
Last night, Li Chengqian sent people to inform the princes separately, saying that he would pay for them and fulfill his filial piety to the eldest grandson and empress in their name. The matter of Li Tai's repair of the Buddhist shrine has indeed caused a lot of trouble to these people, and many people have begun to raise money and are ready to follow Li Tai's example.
Li Chengqian's proposal made all the princes and princesses feel relaxed, not to mention paying for them. So everyone was grateful to Li Chengqian. At this moment, Li Tai not only did not hit others, but offended a large number of people.
"Very good, Cheng Qian, this thing is well done." Empress Eldest Sun praised from the bottom of her heart.
……
After leaving the Lizheng Palace, Li Chengqian felt comfortable physically and mentally, and had a feeling of wanting to fly. After today's events, he realized that when he encountered difficulties, it was really not a way to escape. After facing it bravely, overcoming the difficulties, and no longer worrying and fearing in my heart, it is really an extremely pleasant feeling.
Lizheng Palace.
Soon after Li Chengqian left, the eldest grandson Wuji came.
He said very worriedly: "Sister, King Wei has done things a little too much, and the minister is really worried about His Royal Highness the Prince." ”
Empress Eldest Sun said excitedly: "Brother, Cheng Qian came here just now, do you know what he told me?" She told Li Chengqian's performance to the eldest grandson Wuji.
The eldest grandson Wuji also felt very excited, and said: "I can't imagine that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has made such great progress, it's really surprising and happy." ”
Empress Eldest Sun smiled: "Isn't this Li You helping him behind his back." If this continues, Chengqian will really grow up. ”
The eldest grandson Wuji said with some concern: "Your Majesty has summoned His Royal Highness the King of Qi, I don't know if he will anger Your Majesty." ”
Empress Eldest Sun said: "Li You, this kid, I believe he will have a way." "She has always had a lot of confidence in Li You.
Then, she said firmly, "No matter what, we have to help him!" ”
……
Li You went to meet Li Shimin, and as soon as he walked to the Liangyi Palace, he saw Li Tai coming out of the Liangyi Palace. Now Li Tai and Li You are already on the same page. The two didn't bother to talk when they met, and each twisted his face to the side and passed by.
Li Tai walked for a while, couldn't help but turn around, and looked at his back with jealous eyes. Li You didn't squint and walked forward with his head held high.
Li Tai is in a complicated mood, he hates Li You, not only because Li You often slaps him in the face, but also because this bastard is not stingy and does not support himself, and he helps that waste Li Chengqian. He stood there for a long time, until Li You's back disappeared, and then turned to leave.
Liangyi Palace, study.
Li You came to the door of Li Shimin's study, and Ma Xuanliang said, "Your Highness, Lord Fang is inside." ”
Li You smiled: "Okay, it's just right, I have something to talk about with Master Fang." ”
Li You didn't need to be informed when he saw Li Shimin, he pushed the door and went in.
"Son-in-law, see father." Li You said.
Li Shimin saw Li You and said happily: "Li You, you came just in time, Hou Junji has a piece of music." ”
Li You took over the chapter, knowing that Hou Junji had launched an attack on the Western Turkic Gulli a month earlier.
Li Shimin asked: "Li You, you are familiar with the situation in the Western Regions, how do you think the war will develop?" "With such a big war, Li Shimin and others are very worried.
Li You said with a smile; "Father, you put your heart in your belly. He was unpopular, with the army of Desire Valley in the northwest, the army of Hou Junji in the southeast, and the Persian army of Hamid in the southwest, and his demise was a matter of time.
It won't be long before Hou Junji's good news arrives. ”
As soon as he said this, Li Shimin and Fang Xuanling suddenly relaxed.
Li Shimin asked: "After defeating the Western Turks, which are out of control, how to deal with the rest of the Western Regions?" ”
Li You said: "The Western Regions were all defeated except for the three Uighur-controlled countries of Puli, Yinai, and Shache. ”
Fang Xuanling asked, "What about the Western Turks who set up a department in the Desire Valley?" ”
Li You said with a smile: "After this battle, they will have at most 50,000 horses left, and the coalition army will definitely not be less than 150,000 horses at this time." Set up three choices for Desire Valley, one is to let them continue to go west to harm others, the second is to directly merge into my Tang Dynasty, and the third is to simply exterminate them. ”
Fang Xuanling asked, "What is the reason?" After all, they just cooperated with the coalition forces, and they made a big mistake, right? "The ancients had to pay attention to the fact that they were famous when they sent troops.
Li You smiled: "The reason is that the coalition forces are stronger than them, and if they don't accept it, they will fight." If you really need a reason, let's just say that the Western Regions have been our Han people since the Han Dynasty, can't you take it back now? ”
Li Shimin laughed and said, "Very good, I like this reason." Hahaha. ”
Fang Xuanling also smiled: "Very good reason." Ha ha. ”
Li You said: "Father, Erchen has just returned from Xigou Iron Mine, and it is developing very well, so Erchen will report to you." ”
When Li Shimin heard that Xigou Iron Mine could produce 2 million catties of iron a year, he said excitedly: "So much, this is more than 20% of Datang's annual iron production." ”
Fang Xuanling was also very happy and grinned.
Li You said: "The technology of forging iron in Xigou Iron Mine has also been greatly improved, and it can produce a large amount of 100 steel. The retainers brought back some weapons and wanted to ask their father to take a look. ”
Li Shimin was very interested and said, "Take it in." ”
Li You suggested: "Father, how about you please move into the courtyard and try it yourself?" ”
Li Shimin had been in the house for a long time, and he was feeling a little depressed, and said, "Okay, go out and have a look." ”
Soon after, the crowd came into the courtyard.
Ma Xuanliang had already inspected the weapons brought by Li You and took over for the time being. He picked up a Tang knife and handed it to Li Shimin.
Li Shimin took the Tang knife, held the hilt, and slowly pulled the knife out.
It was 10 a.m., the sky was cloudless, and the autumn sun was exceptionally bright. The sun shone on Tang Dao's body, dazzling brightly.
With a "slap", Li Shimin pulled out the Tang knife and held it up in front of him to examine it carefully. I saw that this Tang knife was extremely sharp, reflecting the cold light in the sun.
