Perhaps because of the long-term foreign wars, the martial arts of the Tang Dynasty prevailed. Everything is one and the same, the people are still martial, although the military strength is strong, but this kind of excessive strength has caused the military system of the Tang Dynasty to breed many drawbacks.

The reason why Li Zhi was so eager to control and balance the various forces in the court was, to a large extent, the pressure came from Zhufan and the soldiers under their control.

The existence of these problems was not seen by Li Zhi himself, in fact, Li Shimin was already aware of them when he was in power. When Zhenguan was ten years old, Li Shimin once rectified the government soldiers, but due to the existence of various objective factors, the rectification did not achieve the goal he originally expected. Later, after successive foreign wars, Li Shimin never found a suitable opportunity to solve the problem of the government soldiers, and it can even be said that the problem of the government soldiers was the one that Li Shimin considered the most in the period before his death.

Whether from the perspective of a father or an emperor, Li Shimin was not willing to leave the issue of military reform to Li Zhi in his heart. He can be ruthless in the court after his death, leaving a test for Li Zhi, that is because no matter whether Li Zhi can successfully pass this pass, it will not shake the foundation of the Tang Dynasty, but the military system and military power are related, but it is not to be ignored, and Li Zhi's foundation in the army is really weak, although there are still some veterans in the court, and there is no shortage of young people who can recruit and fight, and these people can also be trusted in terms of loyalty, but for the soldiers of Fanzhen Prefecture, Li Zhi does not have absolute control.

Military power that cannot be fully controlled is the greatest destabilizing factor for an empire. Li Shimin felt that his body was getting weaker and weaker, and he had discussed this problem with Li Zhi many times, but he was never able to come up with a way to reassure them about how to solve it.

And compared with the situation when Zhenguan was ten years old, the problems of the inner and outer governments today are so serious that people can't ignore them. The reality of the mutual infiltration and liaison between various departments in the army has made the "mutual inspection" system that the emperor relies on to monitor the army has become a virtual reality, and to a large extent, the emperor's right to know about the army has been quietly deprived of most of it.

Li Zhi actually didn't care much about the disputes in the court, but now he needed a calm and stable court, so that he could solve the military system, which was likely to shake the country's foundation, without worries.

Although he had only heard Li Zhi mention one or two sentences by chance, Yongning had already guessed his mind. It is precisely because she knows the true purpose of Li Zhi's heart that she doesn't care about the fact that she brings out a bit of publicity in her actions, she knows that at this time, Li Zhi will only ask for the result, and will not care about the process. In addition, over the years, the emotional foundation that she has carefully maintained and maintained is enough to shelter her from the wind and rain, and under the impetus of these favorable conditions, Yongning put the method of using hydraulic printing, which has been studied for several days, and the "idea" of movable type engraving in front of Li Zhi.

Of course, the method of hydraulic printing that she handed over was also in the name of "idea", and in the method she wrote, there were some small fallacies in some not too critical places, of course, these can be solved in the process of practice.

Li Zhi praised Yongning's two "ideas", even if he explained the matter, and assured Yongning that even if her "idea" was problematic, it didn't matter, there were so many skilled craftsmen in the world, there was always someone who could turn her "idea" into reality.

Originally, Li Zhi was still worried about the price of daily newspapers and periodicals proposed by Yongning, but Yongning always seemed to do something unexpected at a critical time, and this time was no exception. If these two "ideas" of hers can be realized, then the manpower and material resources in the original plan will be greatly saved, and the upfront investment can also be reduced to a large extent.

If you think about it further, if the cost of printing is reduced, it means that the price of books and books will also decrease in the future, and there will be more readers in the world. Li Zhi thinks very realistically, and he doesn't need to think about it, as long as he thinks that the people under the rule of the Tang Dynasty have more literate and polite people, then it will naturally be a great good thing for the country and the family.

After a burst of excitement, Li Zhi suddenly calmed down, and looked back at Yongning's gaze, revealing some complicated meanings that Yongning couldn't see clearly.

"What's wrong?" Li Zhi's gaze made Yongning a little uneasy, but she did not avoid Li Zhi's gaze, but looked back calmly and asked, "But what's wrong?" ”

Li Zhi sighed lightly, stretched out his hand and hugged Yongning in his arms, and said, "No, there is nothing wrong, I just sighed for a moment in my heart...... Ah Fang, you say, what would I do without you? ”

Yongning pouted quietly in Li Zhi's arms, and secretly vomited in his heart, if it weren't for her, Li Zhi was afraid that at this time he was thinking about how to hook up Empress Wu from Ganye Temple, and he didn't have to work hard in the future, and the major affairs of the court and politics were left to Empress Wu to deal with, he only needed to be responsible for continuing to hook up with women, such as the sister and niece of the Empress Wu...... Thinking like this, Yongning suddenly had the feeling that he had saved a runaway youth, but if this "runaway youth" knew about the existence of another development route, he didn't know how he would feel......

Although he was thinking about those messy things in his heart, Yongning was still distracted at a high level, and slowly reached out to wrap his arms around Li Zhi's waist and said, "I don't know, what would you do without me...... I only know that if it weren't for you, I would be at the end of the world now, and I don't know where I am...... So, Jiurou, stop thinking about these meaningless hypothetical questions, we are already together at the moment, then there is no other possibility in life, if you are truly grateful, you should cherish the ...... in front of you"

"Hmm." Li Zhi kissed Yongning's hair lightly, and talked to her about her children warmly and softly, from Li Cong's edge gradually revealed, to Qinhua's arrogance, and even those interesting things when getting along with children, they also chatted back and forth, not about Fengyue, but even more affectionate.

Since Fang Xuanling's classmates tried their best to help, Fang Xuanling has let go of a lot of the affairs of the academy, and almost only took on some liaison and planning responsibilities. As for things such as daily newspapers, periodicals and printing technology planned by Yongning behind the scenes and led by Li Zhi, Fang Xuanling invested more attention and energy.

Although Fang Xuanling has resigned from his official position, Li Zhi obviously does not really have the idea of letting him go home to retire, and whenever there is a dispute or gain under the discussion with others, he can't help but invite Fang Xuanling into the palace to comment. Perhaps because of the lack of official and lightness, Fang Xuanling's words and deeds are now much more direct, and he is not as forward-looking as he was when he was in charge, but it makes Li Zhigao look a little higher.

After contact again and again, Fang Xuanling also saw Li Zhi's ultimate purpose clearly. Then the dissatisfaction with Li Zhi's political impatience and rashness in his heart was all settled. It can even be said that Fang Xuanling couldn't help but look at Li Zhi differently and his impression of Li Zhi in the past greatly changed his impression of Li Zhi.

Because of Li Shimin's kindness, he was determined to repay him with all his might, and it can be said that Li Zhi was grateful to him for many things in his heart, but the object of his loyalty was Li Shimin. For Li Zhi, the successor monarch, in some respects, Fang Xuanling does not recognize, in his opinion, Li Zhi does not have the qualifications to become the British Lord Ming Jun in many places.

It's just that Fang Xuanling's measure is Li Shimin, although he also knows that this is unfair to Li Zhi, but his pride can't allow him to lower his standards. Just like the choices he made in the troubled times at the end of the Sui Dynasty, the hero he believed was worthy of his life and death, and the hero he followed without regrets should be a person like Li Shimin, and he would only recognize that kind of person......

After Li Shimin's death, Fang Xuanling gave birth to a twilight heart, and the reason why he insisted on resigning from his official position until this time was only because of his friendship with Li Shimin, which helped Li Zhi so much. But at this time, Li Zhi let him see the sharpness of Li Shimin from the appearance of benevolence and weakness, and he actually had another pride in his heart.

Regarding the issue of the military system of Fanzhen in the Tang Dynasty, it can be said that the person who discussed the most with Li Shimin was Fang Xuanling. Moreover, more than 20 years of career as prime minister also gave him a deep understanding of the actual situation of the government soldiers in various places, and an unsigned letter was written in only three hours.

When Song Shu was handed over to Li Zhi, he was really stunned.
