"Oh, high!" Li Chengqian understood, and he knew that if he built this monument to the heroes, the harvest would be far greater than the credit he had made on this expedition to Tuyuhun.

He arched his hand to Li You and said, "Fifth brother, eldest brother really doesn't know how to thank you. ”

After saying that, he didn't have the heart to drink anymore, so he took his leave and left. He wanted to go back to sober up and report to Li Shimin in the afternoon.

After Li Chengqian left, Yin Guanghao asked: "Brother You, why do you want to give such a thing to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?" ”

Zhang Guigui also said: "That is, you can just say no to this matter yourself?" ”

Li You said: "We don't need to buy people's hearts. Besides, this matter is a serious matter, as long as it is done, who says it is different. ”

The next morning, Li You came to the research institute.

After a few days of preparation, Tang Xun was about to start teaching the students he had recruited. He came to Li You's office and reported to him on the preparations for the shipbuilding workshop.

Li You listened to his report and was satisfied, and said: "Your class has learned the basic knowledge of cartography in the first two months. Then, starting directly from the study of the hull structure, study for three months, and familiarize yourself with the structure of the existing main ships of Datang.

Then, I will give you some drawings of more advanced ships, and you will go directly to Yangzhou to supervise the construction. ”

Originally, when he saw mechanical drawing, Tang Xun admired this prince very much, and he didn't understand where he learned such advanced drawing techniques.

These days, Li You also gave him pencils, triangular rulers, compasses and other practical drawing tools, which shocked him.

Now, he was not surprised to hear that the prince would give him advanced ship-shaped drawings.

Li You looked at his meager body and said, "The body is the capital of the career, and you can't have a physique like this."

Now, I give you an order, you and the students must get up early every day to exercise, and as long as the weather permits, run 8 laps around the yard every day, not less than one.

Each class time should not exceed half an hour, and activities should be carried out between classes. Don't worry, I'll subsidize your food. ”

Seeing that the prince took such care of the ship class, Tang Xun was really moved.

After Tang Xun left, Xiao Wanyu walked in, she was really a smart woman, and she didn't mention a word about what happened yesterday. Talking and laughing, he reported to Li You.

Li You saw Xiao Wanyu's cute appearance, and couldn't help but say, "Baby, come and hug it." ”

Xiao Wanyu walked towards him with a red face.

At this moment, the white tiger shouted outside: "Lord Wang, Your Majesty has sent someone to ask you to go to the morning court immediately." ”

Li You originally wanted to have a warm relationship with Xiao Wanyu, but was disturbed by the white tiger, the king of the nine eggs.

Xiao Wanyu couldn't help but giggle when she saw Li You's depressed appearance.

Li You didn't do it, stepped forward to hug her delicate body, kissed her cherry lips, and then walked out.

When he came to the corridor, he saw the prince who had come to deliver the decree, and he asked, "Prince, what happened?" ”

The prince said: "Your Highness, you go quickly, Your Majesty is waiting, let's talk while we go." ”

On the way, the prince told Li You about what happened in the court.

Shortly after the beginning of the dynasty this morning, Li Chengqian said: "Father, since the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, for the sake of the Tang Dynasty and the well-being of the people, countless loyal and brave soldiers have been sacrificed in all wars.

It was this Tuyuhun war that also sacrificed more than 1,000 Tang Army soldiers.

Not only that, in addition to the soldiers of the military, there are also those civil officials who are brave and unyielding in front of the enemy, and what are the people who support the front-line battles and die on the road, they have all made due contributions to Datang.

For these people who bravely sacrificed their lives for the country and the people, the sons thought that the court could not forget their exploits.

Therefore, Erchen proposed to establish a high-standard monument to the heroes of the Tang Dynasty. Let those heroic souls always be admired by the Tang Dynasty monarchs and the people! ”

"Okay!"

As soon as Li Chengqian's words fell, the army generals were the first to come out in favor.

Then, the civil servants also expressed their approval.

Li Shimin was very happy. After he heard Li Chengqian's report on this matter yesterday, he thought it was a good idea, so he asked Li Chengqian to bring it up in the morning today to see the reaction of the hundred officials.

As a result, the expected good results.

Li Shimin was in favor of this matter in his heart, and he asked: "What do you think of the prince's suggestion?" ”

The generals of the military were unanimously in favor.

There were also quite a few civil servants who expressed their approval.

This is, Gao Jingming came out and said: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's proposal, the minister has no opinion. However, according to the opinion of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, if this monument is to be built of high specifications, it will cost a lot of money to use materials such as white marble.

Now, if the imperial court wants to implement the Great Voyage Plan, it will cost a lot of money, and in addition to the construction of monuments, the household department is really powerless.

Therefore, Chen suggested, can we take a break at this time? Next year or the year after? ”

Li Chengqian was very unhappy, he was just about to speak, Li Tai spoke. He said: "Father, the sons agree with the opinion of the high lord of the household.

As Lord Gao said, the Great Voyage Plan is related to the future of the imperial court, which should be guaranteed first, and this money should be paid. What His Royal Highness the Crown Prince proposed, the sons and daughters did not object.

However, Erchen thought that the rewards of the soldiers who went out on the expedition had not yet been distributed, and this was another large amount of money. If you add to this the construction of such a high-standard monument, the imperial court does not have enough financial resources.

Therefore, Erchen thought that the rewards of the meritorious service recipients should be guaranteed first, as well as the distribution of pensions for those who sacrificed their lives. ”

Li Tai saw that Li Chengqian was going to buy people's hearts again, and thought that all good things could not be taken by him, so he came up with such an idea.

Not to mention, this trick was quite powerful, not only thwarting Li Chengqian's momentum, but also winning the popularity of the soldiers who went out on the expedition.

"Makes sense." The military generals felt that Li Tai's opinion was more pertinent, and turned to support Li Tai.

"yes, yes, it's a matter of prioritization." The civil servants also felt that what Li Tai said was reasonable.

Li Chengqian's enthusiasm was extinguished by Li Tai's head-to-head scoop of cold water, and his heart was extremely angry, and he said: "What is this, these things can be done together." ”

Now, everyone began to shake their heads, now they are talking about a lack of money, and it is difficult to do two things, you still say that you can do it together, is there something wrong?

Li Tai was secretly happy in his heart when he saw the expressions of the ministers, and he asked, "Lord Gao, tell me about it, can you do these things together?" ”

Gao Jingming said: "His Royal Highness the Prince, there is nothing the minister can do. ”

Li Tai said: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, your wish is good, but you can't ignore the reality of the court's lack of financial resources, so you can't do it like this, right?!"

Li Chengqian was forced to be anxious, and he said, "Isn't it just money?" Erchen has a way!" u
