Li Shimin agreed with Liu Mu's statement.

Li Shimin also understood that if he didn't want to use the airship, the airship would definitely continue to research, improve, and improve various technologies, and it would not be built until five years, or even longer.

But now it's made, it's just there, and it's enough to deter Xiaoxiao.

The two were chatting, but they saw Baoqin coming out of the inner courtyard, walked up to Li Shimin and gave a salute, and then said softly: "Sage, the queen suggested that the sage and my family Langjun go to Wenyue Pavilion, or the queen wants to go to Wutongfang." ”

Li Shimin was stunned for a moment, and said in his heart that his queen did not accompany him for the New Year.

Liu Mu asked, "Who else?" ”

"There are more than 20 ladies of the country and dozens of county ladies ......"

Liu Mu understood, and immediately said: "Okay, you go to Wutongfang, this little place in our house is not enough for you to toss." When you go to Wutong Fang, I will make up 100,000 yuan for you. ”

Baoqin didn't dare to agree immediately, there was still the Tang Emperor here.

Li Shimin also reacted, and said immediately: "I also make up 100,000 yuan, and I am happy for the New Year." ”

"Thank you, Sage, Xie Langjun." After hugging the piano and giving a salute, he ran away happily.

In the backyard of Liumu's mansion, the eldest grandson Wujian and Dugu Lanruo and other noblewomen are actually ready to go out, although the original prince's mansion is not small, but this is in the imperial city, and some low-level noblewomen are not qualified to enter the imperial city for the New Year.

However, the Wutong Fang area is bigger and has more fun.

In the blink of an eye, the entire Liu Mansion couldn't even see a single person, Dugu Lanruo gave the guards a holiday, so that they could go to the palace to participate in the Chinese New Year's Eve celebration in addition to guarding the door, and the maids could go to Wutong Fang or the palace if they wanted, and everyone sent a lot of coins to let them have a good time.

"Second brother, your world has half of the credit for your sister-in-law."

Li Shimin nodded: "That's right, the big war is on the ground, although it is a battle that must be won." Only by stabilizing people's hearts, boosting morale, and uniting the rear can the front line fight with all its might. ”

Liu Mu asked again: "Second brother, has the time come for the Wujing plan?" ”

A hint of joy appeared on Li Shimin's face: "When I arrived, with the lives of 50,000 Goguryeo slaves for my Tang Dynasty, I repaired the railway from Chang'an to Shudi, and changed Bashu to accompany the capital, Luoyang's pattern is too small, according to the Ministry of Industry, the Central Plains convergence point of the railway should be in Zhengzhou, and Luoyang is the grain capital of Jingzhao, which is very good." ”

After Li Shimin finished speaking, his face was even more joyful: "Tonight, the second brother will come to personally cook and roast the whole sheep." ”

"Then the courtier is going to prepare firewood."

"Pine branches." Li Shimin's requirements for roast sheep are very, very high, and even firewood.

Snowflakes floated in the sky, Li Shimin and Liu Mu did not sit in the house, the two of them sat in the garden, roasting sheep, drinking wine, it was rare to have such a relaxed chat, there was no one within a hundred steps around the two, and there were secret guards around the imperial city.

"In the third year of Wude, it snowed heavily in Jingzhao, and 673 people froze to death, all of them were old and weak, women and children. At the beginning of the founding of the Tang Dynasty, it was bitter, the court was bitter, and the people were even more bitter. In the year he swore for his brother that if he had the opportunity to ascend the throne as the emperor in this life, he would also let the people of the Tang Dynasty have no worries about food and clothing throughout his life. ”

Liu Mu saw it clearly, and Li Shimin cried.

"Full drink!" Li Shimin wanted to get drunk, not because he was sad, but happy.

He has been reported that in the 400 miles around Chang'an, there is not a single household without charcoal, food, or clothing in winter.

He was happy, happy and wanted to have a few drinks.

"Second brother, there are seven emperors in history who have been called the first emperor of the ages."

"Is there a brother?" Li Shimin cares about this title.

Liu Mu said: "From the back to the front, the Manchu Qing called Kang Xiaomazi the first emperor of the ages, I said...... Bah! ”

Hahaha!

Li Shimin laughed loudly, he liked Liu Mu's tone, he had heard Liu Mu talk about history, Li Shimin did not recognize this emperor, he did not reach the peak of the late Ming Dynasty at all, a country where everyone wore silk relied on sweet potatoes to barely support a land with a large territory. But there is no civilization at all, and there is no domineering spirit of the great powers of the Celestial Empire.

Too weak, weak in the heart.

"There is another one, Genghis Khan. According to the historical records of the Mongols, only two men and two women survived by the Turks, and after they fled, they slowly multiplied. This is a very powerful military strategist, he fought in the north and south, only fighting, and his achievements are the largest territory in the world. However, he is a legendary commander, and the emperor of the ages is not suitable. ”

"Yes." Li Shimin nodded.

For the emperor, the merits of war and the people's livelihood must be strong.

"Song Zu, in fact, it is almost, the Song generation excessively suppressed the military attachés, although the culture, technology, and wealth are very strong, but they let the surrounding states press and fight."

"There are a few more, the second brother knows about it, Emperor Qin, Han Wu and the second brother."

Li Shimin took a sip of wine and said slowly: "To put it this way, the first emperor of the ages should have uniqueness, the second brother dare not compare with the two sages, and the Tang Emperor should be the first emperor of the ages." ”

"The second brother said it well, in the history of later generations, the Europeans recognized me as Emperor Wen of Sui for the eons of the Central Plains."

Li Shimin was stunned, he never expected it to be Emperor Wen of Sui.

But on second thought, Emperor Wen of Sui deserves it.

"Reasonable, Uncle Cousin deserves this title, after the second brother learned a lot of knowledge from you, he understands the greatness of Uncle Cousin, especially this imperial examination system, although you said that there are many drawbacks of the imperial examination system after a thousand years, but now it is a great creation."

"Yes, when it comes to this imperial examination, we Datang can also revise it, and then ......

The Tang Emperor Li Shimin and Liu Mu were discussing the emperor, the world, and the pattern in the garden.

Just outside the Imperial Palace, in front of Suzaku Gate.

An old man with a single crutch, who had lost one hand, one leg, one eye, and one ear, trembled and walked to the Suzaku Gate, and then took out a silver ingot from his bosom in front of the city gate and put it on the ground.

The guards guarding the city gate walked over quickly, and saw that the silver ingot was a little uncertain.

"Old man, what does this mean?"

"The little old man still has one eye and one ear, and the little old man is not old and confused. This winter, the atmosphere in Chang'an City is not quite right, and Xiao Lao'er visited many old guys. Speaking of this, the old man didn't say much, and he knelt down and kowtowed heavily to the imperial city, shouting with all his might: "God bless the Tang Dynasty......"

Many people who were still watching also came over.

Some put down a few silver ingots, some put down gold ingots, some brought a whole box of silver bars, and some put down a large bag of copper coins.

By the time the city guards reported to the city guards layer by layer, and when the generals arrived, a pile of money one foot high had already been piled up outside the Suzaku Gate, and from the other three directions, ordinary people lined up like ants moving, as well as workshop owners and wealthy merchants who drove carriages and pulled several cash boxes.

"Stop, stop."
