Chapter 957: Designing Mines
Li Su doesn't know much about the Japanese country, and even less about their language, in the film and television dramas that can be transmitted to China in his last life, he has only watched a few cartoons, and the rest is some unsightly films, and what he still remembers is the weird way of speaking in the cartoon that arranges the subject-verb-object grammar in a mess, Li Su was still wondering at that time, is the brain structure of the Japanese people crooked, why is this messy way of speaking still so popular.
Used on Dao Zhao's body today, Li Su suddenly found that he seemed to be regarded as a psychopath, if it weren't for his identity as the Duke of Datang County, Dao Zhao would probably get up and give him a whip kick.
"Your Majesty Li County, let's talk and communicate in a normal way, is it okay? The poor monk begs you! "Dao Zhao is really a little tired, tired.
Li Su nodded, and said faintly: "Although I am a little uncomfortable with being asked so much, I still ...... when I think of the protection and persistence of the high monk."
Before he finished speaking, Dao Zhao suddenly gritted his teeth and interrupted him: "Your Majesty Li County!" ”
Li Su, who was not addicted to drama, glanced at him stupidly.
If Li Zhi hadn't opened his mouth, he would have been polite to the Tang envoy, and he would have kicked this monkey out of the door this morning.
"Let's get down to business, the senior monk wants me to improve the rice seeds of the Tang Dynasty Agronomy, I told you about this a long time ago, it's useless to look for me, the current young superintendent of Agronomy is Li Yifu, and he is in charge." Li Su began to kick the ball.
Dao Zhao sighed: "Why should Li Xiangong hide it from me? Although I have not been in Chang'an for a long time, but the general situation of the Tang Dynasty is still deliberately inquired about the poor monks, there is no supervision of agriculture now, and it is indeed the young eunuch Li Yifu who is in charge, but he has already been an auxiliary minister under the Duke of Li County, in the words of your Tang Dynasty, you are his backer, and the poor monk has a request for rice seeds, and it is most effective to find you directly. ”
Li Su shook his head and said, "This ...... I'm afraid I can't promise you. ”
Dao Zhao hurriedly said: "Why? Yamato has never offended the Tang Dynasty, and has always been the suzerain of the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty has always responded to the vassal state, when the Silla Kingdom, Li Xiangong casually said, he gave 20,000 sets of weapons and armor to the Silla Queen, the same vassal country, why my Yamato Kingdom is not favored by the Tang Dynasty? ”
Li Su sneered: "The sect master is not a grandson, 'sect master' means that we can give it to whoever we want, if we don't give it, you come to grab it and try it secretly?" As for the improved rice seeds, we Datang ourselves have not yet popularized it, there is no reason to give it to others so early, it is very precious, and it cannot be given casually, so you had better die for it, Datang will not agree to you. ”
Dao Zhao was extremely disappointed, and his expression was dull.
Li Su said lightly: "For the sake of the face of the two East Pearls, I will teach you a few more words, if a country wants to become stronger, wants to make the treasury rich, and the people rich, the way is not to beg for gifts from others everywhere, but to improve themselves, if you have sincerely studied the sages of our Central Plains, you will definitely find that the sages have many teachings on self-improvement, as early as the Spring and Autumn Period, there is a book called "I Ching" that clearly said, 'Tianxingjian, You see, more than 1,000 years ago, the sages taught us that we should be self-reliant and resolute......"
Seeing that Dao Zhao was still disappointed and didn't say a word, Li Su then added, "Do you know what the next sentence is?" Listen, the knowledge points are coming, especially the knowledge points that you Japanese people should remember more, that is, 'the terrain is good, the gentleman carries things with virtue', 'Houde' understands? If others are willing to teach you, you should study hard, if others are not willing to teach, you should reflect on whether you have a problem with being a person, rather than worrying about other people's good things like a thief. ”
Daozhao's expression gradually changed from disappointment to despair.
Li Su looked at his expression quietly, and his heart suddenly moved, and said: "However, everything can be changed, and it is not completely impossible for you to want rice seeds......
Dao Zhao was stunned for a moment, and then he was overjoyed, and as soon as his legs were weak, he knelt directly on the ground: "Ask the county prince Li to teach!" The poor monk was grateful. ”
Li Su touched his chin and muttered: "Now that His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty is slightly ill, he has completely handed over the affairs of the court to His Royal Highness the Prince, do you know this?" ”
"Yes, yes." Daozhao chicks peck rice-shaped, cute.
"So, whether to give rice seeds or not is up to His Royal Highness the Prince......"
"Does Li Xiangong mean to ask the poor monk to ask His Royal Highness the Prince?"
"No, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will not agree, because I said in front of him, please Your Highness do not plant rice for you......"
Daozhao: "............"
It's a good thing, the poor monk really wants to commit the murder precept......
Li Su smiled: "Oh, I'm a bit divided, the senior monk understands, although His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will not agree, but does the senior monk know who is the most popular person around His Royal Highness now?" ”
Dao Zhao's eyes widened: "Isn't it you?" ”
"Uh, of course it's me, I'm talking about the second red person, she is a woman, no official or position, but she has the ambition to swallow the sun and the moon, and the ability to warp and weft the world, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince attaches great importance to her words, it can be said that she obeys her words, why doesn't the high monk ask her?"
Dao Zhao hesitated for a while, and then said, "Please ask this martial girl...... Did it work? ”
"Is it useful, just try it, it is a very normal diplomatic request for the country to ask me for rice seeds from the Tang Dynasty, you say a few more good words in front of Miss Wu, maybe she will agree......" Li Su smiled mysteriously.
Dao Zhao frowned, his expression in a trance.
“…………”
Seeing Dao Zhao away again, Li Su took out the two Dongzhu from his arms, shook his head and sighed.
"For these two things, I dried up my saliva and my mouth was numb, why do I always have a feeling of loss?" Li Su muttered to himself.
After playing with Dongzhu for a while, Li Su called Fang Lao Wu in a loud voice.
"Fifth uncle, a few days ago, I asked you to send someone to follow the actions of that widow, what has he done in Chang'an City in the past two days?"
Fang Lao Wu said with a smile: "This monkey is diligent, running from morning to dark, most of them are powerful people who come to visit the court, including the eldest grandson's mansion, the Fang mansion, the Confucian mansion, etc., every day I only see him running from this house to that house, our brothers are about to break their legs, he is still happy, grandpa, this guy is obviously a monk, what does he want to do?" ”
Li Su shook his head: "How do I know?" Maybe he likes to make friends. ”
Fang Lao Wu said hehehe: "Also, this monkey is busy visiting the magnates of Chang'an City, and other Tang envoys are not idle, a few people sneak out of Changping Temple at night, ride horses and run around outside the agricultural school on the outskirts of the city, often wandering around until almost dawn and then going back, I don't know what they want to do......"
Li Su's eyes flashed, he pondered for a long time, and said slowly: "This Dao Zhao will inevitably contact the Wu clan in the East Palace after returning to Chang'an City, fifth uncle, you send someone to keep an eye on him, as long as he has contact with the Wu clan, you will personally go to the agricultural school, find Li Yifu, and let him pretend to have lost a number of improved rice seeds, and then immediately suppress the public opinion of the agricultural science, and pretend that nothing happened......"
Fang Lao Wu was puzzled: "Is Grandpa going to target that martial girl?" ”
Li Su sighed and said: "Just take precautions, bury this thunder first, if she is honest and peaceful, if she has the heart to seek me, I will not be polite." ”
"So, this incident of losing rice seeds has to pretend to happen, and then pretend to be suppressed, just to prevent her? In the future, if Miss Wu has any changes against her grandfather, this matter will be reopened by her grandfather? ”
Li Suzan said: "The fifth uncle has been influenced by me and is getting smarter and smarter......"
His face suddenly turned cold, and Li Su continued: "After doing these things, the fifth uncle will take a few people to get rid of the monk of the Japanese Kingdom, and he must create the illusion of an accidental death." This person is not well-intentioned, it is a scourge to keep it after all, and after his death, the case of losing rice seeds has become a death without proof, which is more beneficial to us, it can be described as killing two birds with one stone, fifth uncle, do you admire me? ”
“…… Admire the five bodies to the ground. ”
"Me too."
…………
…………
The next day, two wills suddenly came out from the Taiji Palace.
The first is the will of personnel changes, the difference is that more than 120 courtiers were changed at the same time, of which more than 20 were taken to prison because of Li Chengqian's conspiracy against him, and the remaining nearly 100 were all transferred out of Chang'an to serve as local officials.
The decree was issued out of the palace and promulgated in the world, and the subjects of Chang'an were shocked and in an uproar.
Clear-eyed people can see that this will is said to be a personnel change, but in fact, it is a large-scale court purge, and most of the more than 100 people on the will are courtiers who have taken refuge in the King of Wei or have clearly expressed their support for the King of Wei.
After the Chang'an courtiers were shocked, they suddenly calmed down.
Everyone has understood Li Shimin's intentions, he is personally clearing the obstacles for Li Zhi's future accession to the throne, from this point of view, Li Zhi's position as the crown prince has been extremely stable, and then think of the recent rumors of the Chang'an government and the opposition, Li Shimin's body is getting worse and worse, the imperial doctor is helpless, and after returning from the Eastern Crusade, Li Shimin has not convened a grand court meeting, all kinds of signs show that His Majesty the Heavenly Khan, whose life is full of legends, his life has entered the countdown.
In this way, everyone can understand Li Shimin's intention of making this slightly hasty personnel transfer.
In order to win the hearts of the courtiers, deter those restless courtiers, and at the same time minimize the influence of the two princes Li Chengqian and Li Tai on the court, so as to facilitate Li Zhi's allegiance and return to the new monarch after Li Zhi ascends the throne in the future, this will can only be made by Li Shimin, and can only choose to go down at this time, a little earlier or later, it will not be effective.
The second purpose was also quite unexpected.
This was a murderous will, and Li Shimin ordered the monks of Huichang Temple outside the city to be beheaded in the city. There are only a few words on the will, and there is no reason why this monk named Bianji has committed any crime and why he should be beheaded.
Those who understand naturally understand, and those who don't understand...... It doesn't matter if you don't understand.
…………
When Li Su heard the contents of these two holy decrees, he still maintained his lazy nature at home, and the servant sent by his uncle Li Ji presented him with a copy of the will, and Li Su studied it carefully for a long time, and his expression couldn't help but be gloomy.
The feelings for Li Shimin are very complicated, there is hatred and gratitude, more appreciation, perhaps, gratitude is more, these years of monarchs and ministers have been entangled in grievances, in general, in the end, it is more than resentment, it is precisely because of this monarch's broad mind that Li Su will be allowed to make countless mistakes and troubles, and will eclectic Li Su's official title has been promoted and promoted, Li Su can now have such an identity and status, and the mind and appreciation of this legendary son of heaven are inseparable.
Now, the time of this legendary son of heaven is short, and a passionate and magnificent era has vaguely seen that the curtain is slowly drawn, and he is reluctant to walk off the stage of history.
As for the debate monk being beheaded, Li Su's heart did not fluctuate.
The private relationship between the debate machine and Gao Yang, Li Su does not want to judge right and wrong, since it is his own business, then, when he does it, he should be mentally prepared to bear all the consequences.
Li Su sympathizes with only Princess Gaoyang, this once rude and lively princess, the past few years may have been very exciting, but now that a vigorous private affair has come to an end, what kind of mood does she use to bear the sudden changes?
Sitting alone at home with a sad look, Li Su stared blankly at the branches of the ginkgo tree in the middle of the yard, not knowing what he was thinking.
For a long time, a pair of Rouyi gently stroked his shoulders, pressing and pinching with no light or heavy force, and Xu Mingzhu's gentle voice came from his ears.
"What's the matter with your husband? Can you talk to the concubine? ”
Li Su didn't look back, and forced a smile: "You haven't seen my face, why do you know that I'm sad?" ”
Xu Mingzhu said quietly: "Husband and wife for many years, the husband's actions and demeanor have long been imprinted into the heart of the concubine, when the husband is sad, he sits alone under the corridor and does not move, just looking at the back makes the concubine feel distressed, especially lonely and helpless......"
Li Su smiled: "Sure enough, they are husband and wife, only you and Dongyang understand me in the world." ”
"What's wrong with my husband? Is something going on in Chang'an City? ”
Li Su shook his head: "It's okay, it's just that there is a person who has reached the time to leave, he is saying goodbye to this world in his own way, and I, in my heart, is a little reluctant, so I sit here alone, recalling the bits and pieces after I met him, the more I think about it, the more sad I feel......"
Xu Mingzhu hesitated for a moment and said, "What the husband said is ...... When today? When the concubine visited Princess Dongyang a few days ago, she heard her mention this matter, and Princess Dongyang was also very sad, and the concubine cried with her for a long time......
Li Su was silent for a moment, and said: "If Mrs. is free these days, you might as well go to the Taoist Temple to accompany her, at this moment, the saddest person should be her, since the mother died when she was a child, and now her father is about to ......."
Xu Mingzhu nodded in response, and said softly: "Birth, old age, sickness and death, it is the will of heaven, according to the Buddhist family, it is just transferred to the next reincarnation, perhaps, it will also be called to the heavenly realm, ranked in the immortal class, after all, His Majesty has worked hard for the people all his life, and has governed a world full of holes in an orderly manner, and the displaced people have lived a peaceful life since then. ”
Li Sushu smiled and said: "You are really good at comforting people, in fact, what I am sad about is not people, but the past, seriously speaking, Your Majesty has treated me very well, if I change to a king with a slightly narrow-minded temperament, now I am afraid that the grass on the grave is two feet high......"
Xu Mingzhu said angrily: "Husband, don't curse yourself, you are a person with great ability, and a person with ability will not be buried anytime and anywhere, over the years, the husband has also done many earth-shattering things, each of which is for the benefit of the people, and the husband is the same as His Majesty, he has accumulated great merits in this life, and after a hundred years of husband and concubine in the future, he hopes that the concubine can also touch the glory of the husband, and be called to heaven by God to be a fairy......"
Li Su laughed, her gloomy mood was suddenly swept away, she put her backhand around her slender waist, and said with a smile: "Madame will definitely be called to heaven by God in a hundred years, you are a fairy, what about me, I have done good things and bad things in this life, and I am a little weak in my heart to accumulate merits, maybe I will be reincarnated by God after a hundred years, and I will be transferred to a thousand years later......"
…………
The husband and wife were talking privately, and the maid in the house walked quickly to report that someone was in the palace, and His Majesty summoned Li Su to meet him.
Li Su's heart sank suddenly, and he hurriedly cleaned up, put on his court clothes and rode out on horseback, and went to Chang'an City.
