Chapter 64 The Way to Make the Stone Fly Farther and Higher
When he came back from Su Dingfang's mansion, Li Hong's mind had always been very heavy, and when he was sitting in front of the window with his cheeks crossed and thinking about what Su Dingfang said to him, he suddenly felt that his back was very hot.
When I turned around, I saw Li Si's big head, and it wasn't until this moment that I found that Li Si had been glued to his back, no wonder it was so hot.
grabbed Li Si's neck with one hand and picked her up, brought her to the door, and kicked it out again, listening to Li Si's crying, Li Hong suddenly felt that his mind was not so heavy.
Does the father really have a very serious precaution against the three of them?
Li Hong couldn't figure out this question, these three people were obviously the pillars of the Tang Dynasty, why was his father so suspicious?
It should not be suspicion, but to put it around for safety, the royal family can be safer, Su Dingfang is a general, and his eyes are destined to only see a corner of the place, unlike his father, who is thinking about the safety of the entire Tang Dynasty.
In Li Hong's view, nothing is as important as the three capitals of the Tang Dynasty, and thinking about it this way, it is understandable that his father's style is understandable.
There are no ministers in the Western Regions, and Xue Rengui was sent to ask for it.
There are no ministers in Mobei, and Pei Xing is sent to ask for it.
Yuyang has no ministers, and sent Yun Chu to discuss it.
In this way, there is no uncertainty in the world.
In the past, these three people who could kill in Liaodong were rolling, but now, they can.
Li Hong's confidence mainly comes from Xue Rengui, who trained the army hard in Chang'an, and Yun Chu, who has never slacked off for a day, as for Pei Xingjian, although he is dedicated to studying the position of the secretary of the ministry, he is as unambiguous as he fights.
Sitting around a large table with the master's family to eat is the most enjoyable time of the day for Li Hong.
The main reason is that the atmosphere of the Yun family at the dinner table is really good, although the meal system is divided, each person has a red lacquer plate, the meals are the same, and everyone is trying to eat, which causes Li Hong to eat a little more every time.
And there are not many rules at the dinner table, even Wen Huan, a child who has never liked to eat much, has gained a lot of weight recently.
The Yun family is good at raising children, Li Hong knows this, other people's children die one or two at every turn, and the Yun family even has a high probability of dying like Li Si, a child who has a high probability of dying now, is now a pig.
Li Hong kept threatening Li Si, who was gnawing on the chicken legs, with his eyes, not to let her eat them, but because the kid had already gnawed two chicken legs, and was now nibbling on the chicken legs he took from Yun Jin's plate.
Li Hong wanted to return his chicken leg to Yun Jin, but was interrupted by Yun Jin, claiming that he would not eat what was on someone else's plate.
As soon as the words fell, Li Si poured the celery on his plate into Yun Jin's plate, and he didn't see Yun Jin resisting for a moment.
Seeing Yun Jin eating celery, Li Hong thought of Naha for no reason...... In the past, Naha didn't like to eat celery, so she also dealt with it like this, but the object of treatment was not the young Yun Jin, but him Li Hong.
Thinking of Naha, Li Hong felt that his heart was aching faintly, and he looked up at Yun Chu and said, "Master, it's time for Naha to go to the Buddha Kingdom now, right?" ”
Yun Chu said: "When her next letter arrives, it's time to talk about the affairs of the Buddha Kingdom, and I will send it to you when the time comes." ”
Li Hong was silent, continued to eat silently, and said goodbye to Naha, he did not receive a word from Naha.
"I'm going to see Xue Rengui today, is the master going?" Li Hong shook his head to shake away the painful thoughts, and asked with a smile.
Yun Chu shook his head and said, "No, the next time I see Xue Rengui, it must be when I have the heart to polish my martial arts." ”
"Master, what do you think of today's generals?"
"It was supposed to be the Tang generals who went to the border, but it became a foreign general who took the Tang Dynasty soldiers to the border, and it was supposed to be the Tang general who went to open up the territory, and it became a foreign general who led the Tang Dynasty soldiers to open up the territory.
They hid in Chang'an, Luoyang, Yizhou, and Yangzhou in all the beautiful places to enjoy the blood food brought by the alien generals at the expense of the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty.
In a few years, their buttocks will become fat, they will not be able to sit in the saddle, their arms will become weak, they will not be able to hold the horse lance, their courage will become smaller, and they will no longer dare to come to the front of the two armies to show their martial arts. ”
"If they are forcibly recruited and sent to the ends of the earth, will they be able to regain their former martial prowess?"
Yun Chu looked up at Li Hong and said with a smile: "Don't say these stupid things, if you make such a suggestion, you will be attacked by a group, and you will be scolded by your father, and your mother will not treat you." ”
"Why, isn't it a good thing that my people are strong?"
"It sounds like a good thing, but because of the different status, there are differences in opinions, and your father thinks that no matter how powerful the foreign general is, he will not replace your Li clan as the basis for the new master of the Tang Dynasty.
If the generals of the clan become stronger, it is inevitable that such a bad thing as a change of dynasty will happen.
Now, if the foreign generals are expanding the territory for the Tang Dynasty and are still invincible, there is no need to use the generals of their own clan.
The only role of the generals of their own clan in Datang now is to monitor and deter those foreign generals, so that they dare not have two hearts.
Judging from the current situation, the use of aliens to fight for us has basically formed a consensus in the court.
During the Taizong period, many of the officials of the Tang Dynasty were civil and military, and even civil officials could put on armor and kill the enemy, so the power of the martial arts at that time was relatively rampant, resulting in Wenchen having no status at all.
Now, the world is peaceful, and there is no place for warriors, even if there is a slight trouble in the frontier, it can be easily pacified by sending a general.
The ministers had no way to take the generals of the Tang Dynasty, so they chose not to use them, and began to use a large number of easy-to-use and obedient generals.
I also heard that from next year, Datang will allow people of different races to participate in Datang's scientific expeditions, which sounds like this is a manifestation of Datang's ambition to encompass the four seas, and it is a manifestation of Datang's prestige in the world.
However, I am not optimistic.
I never believed that a Japanese would swear allegiance to the Tang Dynasty, nor did I believe that those aliens in the Western Regions and Mobei would love this Tang Dynasty as much as we do.
How to say it, this land is buried with the bones of our ancestors, and we rely on the nutrients left by the bones of our ancestors to the earth, farming, living, and surviving from generation to generation, that is, we are dependent on this land for life and death.
They don't think so, because if the land doesn't bring them enough glory and enough benefits, they can leave. ”
Li Hong was stunned when he heard it, even if a piece of beef on the chopsticks fell, he didn't notice it.
He simply put down his chopsticks and said, "How to break the game?" ”
Yun Chu smiled and pointed at Li Hong with chopsticks: "If you become the emperor, you can solve it." ”
Li Hong stood up and turned around twice on the ground and said, "If this matter becomes a trend, even if I become the emperor, I'm afraid I won't be able to act against the sky, besides, don't you think it's too late at that time?"
The position in the court is limited, and if others occupy it, it will be difficult for the people behind to squeeze in. ”
Yun Chu took a piece of lotus root and put it in his mouth and bit it creakingly, and only after a moment did he say, "This is why I don't agree with you to immediately form the prince six rates." ”
Li Hong was puzzled and said, "What does this have to do with my prince's six rates?" ”
Yun Chu put down his chopsticks and wanted to raise his hand to slap him, but suddenly remembered that this guy had grown up, so he put down his hand; "The old ones are hopeless, and the young ones should still be able to try it."
"Young man, how young?"
Yun Chu pointed at Yun Jin, Wen Huan, and Di Guangsi and said, "They are still successful." ”
Li Hong exclaimed: "You want to recruit children of their age into the sixth rate of the crown prince?" When the time comes, will I protect them, or will they protect me? ”
Yun Chu looked at Li Hong's eyes and said, "I'm just talking about it casually." ”
"No, master, you definitely didn't say it casually, you had the urge to smoke me just now, which shows that what you just said is very important."
Yun Chu sighed and said: "Back then, Taizu, Emperor Taizong fought all over the country, and now, your father and emperor have reduced money and grain for each province one by one, which is obviously to buy the Tang Dynasty again."
The things that your fathers and ancestors did are very good things, and when it comes to your generation, it is time to spit out the old and accept the new, if you can't complete the spit out the old and accept the new in your generation, and come up with some new things, so that the people's lives can be better, this Datang is another big man at best.
A person throws a stone into the air with all his might, and no matter how strong the person is, the stone will always fly to the highest point and then begin to fall.
Emperor Taizu was the one who threw the stone, your grandfather Emperor Taizong drew a stick on the stone to make the stone fly higher, and your father and emperor whipped the stone the basis of your grandfather to make the stone fly higher.
So, when you ascend the throne and take power, what should you do to make the stone of Datang fly higher or never fall? ”
Li Hong grabbed the master's hands and said, "What should I do?" You say. ”
Yun Chu shook his head and looked at Li Hong, who was getting more and more stupid, and then looked at Li Si's sparkling eyes next to him, and couldn't help but sigh and said, "What is the most thing I have asked you to do since you were a child?" ”
Li Hong immediately said: "Study, practice martial arts......" Seeing that Yun Chu's face was wrong, he suddenly woke up and said: "Farming." ”
Yun Chu smiled and patted the head of this disciple who was not stupid to the extreme: "Yes, farming, our race is born to farm, and farming is our foundation."
As long as more, better, and sweeter food grows in the fields, the life of the tribe will be able to live, even if there are more children and grandchildren in the future.
If you do make it this far, the rest of the things are actually trivial. ”
"Farming?"
"That's right, planting the land well is better than anything else, if you can get 600 catties of wheat out of one acre of land under the whole world, there is no problem with the Tang Dynasty and the government of the Tang Dynasty as you want.
Even if it's messed up, it's fine, at most it's just a few more unlucky ghosts, and it has no impact on the world.
As for the general trend you just mentioned, there is no general trend that can have an acre of land and 600 catties of wheat to build a general trend that is more surging.
If you grasp this general trend, you will find that the rest of the general trend is just ripples in the pond. ”
