Chapter 883: All Nations Come to the Dynasty
In the development of a country, sometimes it is necessary to have a long-term vision.
You can't stop doing a lot of things just because you don't have money.
If you don't have influence, a lot of things won't work.
So many times, some countries are just frugal, and in the international arena, the money that should be spent must be spent.
Because this money is spent, it can bring more benefits and benefits to one's own country.
According to what the eldest grandson Wuji said, if Datang spends this amount of money and lets all countries come to the court, it will be very helpful to the stability of Datang, which can give Datang some time to focus on the development of economy and agriculture.
Of course, for the eldest grandson Wuji, these are just excuses, but this excuse sounds good, and he thinks it will work.
After Li Shimin heard the words of the eldest grandson Wuji, his heart suddenly became happy again, and he almost nodded his head to express satisfaction.
At this time, the officials who had previously supported the coming of all nations to the DPRK stood up one after another.
"Holy Lord, what Lord Eldest Sun said is right, the coming of all nations to the dynasty is very far-reaching for my Tang Dynasty, and it must be done."
"That's right, that's right, when all countries come to the court, there are only tens of thousands of people, can't we afford such a little expense that people need in my Datang?"
"That's it, that's it, Holy Lord, if you want my Datang to be stable for a long time, you have to deter them, if they don't come, how can we deter them."
"So, what the eldest grandson said is right......"
After these people stood up, they quickly formed a momentum in the court, and gradually had the meaning of dominance.
Seeing this situation, Li Shimin became more and more satisfied.
"Looks like it's going to happen."
Li Shimin thought in his heart, but at this time, Wei Zheng and the others stood up again.
"Holy Lord, no, the people's livelihood is the most important, if the people are displaced, then even if they have no more face, what is the use?"
"Yes, the Holy One, in this way, it will make many people complain, please think twice, and don't listen to the words of the eldest grandson."
"That's it, that's it, the eldest grandson doesn't know the suffering of the people, that's why he is like this......"
After Wei Zheng refuted, the eldest grandson Wuji and other officials immediately followed suit.
The entire hall suddenly became noisy and noisy.
Li Shimin watched the courtiers quarrel like this, and when the quarrel went on, his face gradually became ugly.
Originally, he thought that with the eldest grandson Wuji, this thing should be almost possible, but who knew that Wei Zheng and these people were still unrelenting, which was really infuriating.
And just when Li Shimin was thinking like this, he lowered his head and saw that Qin Tian in front of him was just standing calmly, showing a light smile from time to time, as if he didn't care about the affairs of the court at all.
This made Li Shimin angry.
He glanced at Qin Tian and said, "Qin Aiqing, what do you think about this matter?" ”
Li Shimin asked Qin Tian, and the entire hall suddenly fell silent, because everyone knew very well that Qin Tian's thoughts and opinions sometimes could play a decisive role.
Everyone turned their eyes over, but Qin Tian secretly complained in his heart.
It's not easy to do, he didn't want to interfere, and it seems interesting to be a bystander and watch other people quarrel like this.
Of course, the most important thing is that Qin Tian feels that this matter is not a big deal.
Datang does not have all the countries to come to the court, it is still the same, there will still be people who are not enough to eat and clothe, so what determines the life of the people has nothing to do with the coming of all countries, it has something to do with the development of Datang and the attitude of the Son of Heaven, and it has to do with the achievements and abilities of officials in various parts of Datang.
If all the countries really come to court, it will never affect the wealth of the Tang Dynasty.
To be honest, in Qin Tian's opinion, it is not a matter of all countries coming to the dynasty at all, regardless of the key.
He has two choices, the first is to cater to Li Shimin, and the second is to cater to Wei Zheng and his ilk, and if he caters to Wei Zheng and his ilk, his reputation will definitely be better among the people.
Just like the two factions of the eldest grandson Wuji and Wei Zheng in the court today, the eldest grandson Wuji caters to Li Shimin, and Wei Zheng is for the people's reputation.
It's not a good choice.
Everyone was still looking at Qin Tian, Qin Tian hesitated for a moment, and said, "Holy Lord, the minister thinks that if all the nations come to the court, if they want to do it, they can still do it." ”
Hearing Qin Tian's words, Li Shimin breathed a sigh of relief, if Qin Tian supported it, then there was a chance that this thing would be possible.
It's just that after Qin Tian said this, Wei Zheng and the others suddenly changed their faces.
"Lord Qin, what you said is really light, what do you mean if you want to do it, you can still do it, you don't need money to do it?"
"That is, there are so many countries and vassal kings, more than 10,000 people, don't we have to be responsible for their food and housing, who will pay for so much money?"
"That is, if so much money is spent on them, it is better to spend it on the people."
"It turns out that you Qin Tian are such a person, I always thought that you loved the people like a son......"
Wei Zheng and these people are scolding people, that is not covered, they can make people doubt life, and now when they scare Qin Tian like this, it seems that they want to wipe out Qin Tian's previous achievements.
It's as if Qin Tian is a scumbag at this time, even more scum than a scumbag.
Wei Zheng and the others were like hanging over the river, spitting stars flying wildly, Qin Tian stood in front, but he just smiled faintly, and did not pay attention to these people, but continued to Li Shimin: "Shengshang, in the first year of Zhenguan, my Tang Dynasty signed the Weishui Alliance with the Turks, and the surrounding countries have a lot of contempt for my Datang, and now that my Datang has destroyed the Turks, shouldn't I show the national prestige and let them know that my Datang is powerful?" If you don't show it, my Datang is in their eyes, but it is still the Datang who signed the Weishui Alliance with the Turks back then, do you want to see this situation? ”
Qin Tian's words were deafening, and Wei Zheng and the others were stunned for a moment.
The face of the country is sometimes greater than the sky.
It is indeed important to pay attention to people's livelihood, but as a country, sometimes there are trade-offs.
Otherwise, the country will be bullied.
The hall was quiet, and Qin Tian continued to say: "Many people say that it is better to use this money to pay attention to the people and make the people's lives a little better, and this is not wrong, but in the minister's opinion, the coming of all countries to the court is not a money-spending business, on the contrary, it is a money-making business, which is very beneficial to the economic development of my Datang." ”
Hearing what Qin Tian said, Li Shimin became more and more happy, so he asked: "Oh, it's a money-making business, what's the solution?" ”
"Holy Lord, all the nations come to court, they are all human beings, and after the people come, don't they spend money and spend? What's more, my Datang is so rich and has a lot of goods, after they see it, they don't want to buy it, as long as they buy it, they can bring income to the people of my Datang, and after they return to China, they will definitely strengthen trade with my Datang, so won't the money come? ”
