In the past, Yun Chu pushed himself and others to believe that all kindness and dedication would eventually disappear with the death of the individual.

He believes that in the condolence words of some great figures, there are always green mountains without words, and the expression of tears in the sky is a kind of word modification, but also a deliberate expression to maintain the atmosphere.

Now, he doesn't think so.

Any great narrative, in the end, will eventually become eternal like the green mountains and the sky, no matter whether anyone remembers him or not, there will be his mark in this world after all.

Cut through the white clouds with a long knife, the blue sky, and write a big glyph there, although it is fleeting, but at the moment when the long knife breaks the sky, this world belongs to you, and it can be called great.

As for whether others can remember you or not, it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, just know for yourself.

This is the instinct of wanting a grand narrative that naturally arises after people transcend the basic desires of clothing, food, housing and transportation, that is, another narrative of Confucian self-cultivation and Qi family ruling the country and leveling the world.

Some good people began to be altruistic, and bad people began to pursue the ultimate self-interest, whether it was altruism or self-interest, they were both manifestations of night and day, so don't make a fuss about the appearance of female cadres and villains in the history books.

Because, whether it is good or bad, it is a concrete manifestation of human nature.

Yun Chu has now vaguely touched the threshold of breaking the sky, and Chang'an is the cornerstone of his breakthrough.

Every time he thought about it, Yun Chu felt that his figure would become taller, but his height was very limited, and Li Zhi's figure was still above the clouds.

Today's Datang society is stable and calm.

Don't be surprised, this is almost the unified understanding of all the dignitaries in Datang.

Because there was no opponent outside the court, the emperor's eyes were firmly fixed on them, and at this time they were extremely nostalgic for the heroic overlords of the past.

When Jieli Khan forced Emperor Taizong to kill the White Horse on the edge of Weishui, there was peace in the Tang Dynasty, and Emperor Taizong's tolerance for officials was also the highest.

When Li Jing took his soldiers and horses out of Dingxiang Road, and Emperor Taizong took his soldiers and horses out of the middle road of the cloud to raid the Eastern Turks, even if there were officials in the rear who were caught embezzling, the emperor would deal with it generously, only scolding, not killing the head.

The most recent good day was when Li Ji's army went eastward, and the emperor did not deal with an official above the fifth rank for three years.

At that time, it was the most comfortable day for the officials, the soldiers in the front fought hard to make military achievements, and the officials in the rear sang and danced to make political achievements, and everyone's life was very good.

Now it's over, every morning dynasty is almost a test for officials, they don't know what they do, they are still discussing state affairs in the court in the morning, and they have to pack their bags and go to the frontier eight thousand miles away in the afternoon.

There are no foreign enemies in the Tang Dynasty now, there is really no one in the cosmopolitan world, the Eastern Turks are gone, the Western Turks are basically gone, Xue Yantuo is gone, Tuyuhun has half a breath left, as for the three kingdoms in the east, there are two kings who are studying dance and music diligently, and countless princes and the like have invested in Buddhism, I heard that it is very Buddha-like.

The only thing that can be counted on is Tubo, but now, Tubo would rather fight with Tubo's grandmother's family, the Nibora Kingdom, than go down to the plateau to find trouble in the Tang Dynasty.

That is, because of the strange thing of the gas epidemic, the soldiers and horses of the Tang Dynasty will become weaker on the plateau, so that the Tubo ethnic group can be preserved.

At this time, Datang no longer has any enthusiasm for expanding its territory, mainly because it takes half a year for a horse to run from east to west, and it takes a year to run from south to north by horse.

However, even if they don't support it, Datang's pace of expanding its territory has not stopped.

Today, a figure came here, with a scruffy beard and fierce eyes, and when he looked at it, he was either a bandit or a giant robber, saying that he had opened up 500 miles of territory in the north, and the officials opened the map, but they did not know where this 500-mile place was.

The angry official checked the household registration of this guy, and found that it was a man with a eucalyptus bottom, who took this world-famous hero who opened up the territory and gave him a board

When I went down, I realized that this bastard actually led a group of rangers, swordsmen, and destroyed several small tribes of Khitans in the north, killed all the savages, and wanted to ask the court for some more benefits.

Tomorrow there will be another character, all black, still shiny, standing barefoot on the ground, his toes are very open, and his mouth is a thick Hokkien accent, such a guy is definitely a pirate who has not run away.

recruited a Hokkien interpreter, only to figure out that this guy got a big island more than 1,000 miles away from the coastline of the Tang Dynasty, and he also set up a stele and said that it was a certain county in the Tang Dynasty, and he wanted to be the county commander, so he risked being beheaded by the imperial court, and he also wanted to ask for the title for his children and grandchildren.

The prime ministers were annoyed by this kind of thing, and Shangguan Yi went to the court, hoping that the court would not pay attention to such people in the future, the court officials were incomparably noble, and they could not be wasted on these people at will.

Originally, Shangguanyi's recital was very clear, the advantages and disadvantages were demonstrated, and in the end, his conclusions tended to be abandoned, rather than instigating these people to make persistent efforts.

The most worrying thing in his recital is not that ordinary people go to the frontier at their own expense to expand their territory, but that they are worried that the warriors will take advantage of this convenience, among them, Xu Jingye is also used as an example, and he also said that the imperial court's control of Xu Jingye is almost none, which is a hidden danger, and finally there is the impeachment of the British Duke Li Ji for neglecting discipline, and impeaching Xue Rengui, who is also the head of the Qinghai Road March.

also impeached Yun Chu for having an ambiguous relationship with Xu Jingye, and the acquisition of a large number of cattle and horses from Tuyuhun was suspected of being a rival.

As soon as this recital appeared, everyone knew that this was firing a map cannon and drawing a circle, as long as anyone who intersected with this circle should die.

Therefore, Li Zhi made Shangguanyi's performance clear to the world, hoping that the officials of the Tang Dynasty could actively participate in the discussion and come up with a very clear and beneficial method for future generations.

Yun Chu felt that Shangguan Yi was a complete bastard, everyone in the world knew that he and Xu Jingye were enemies, and he almost killed Xu Jingye with his own hands.

Besides, today's Tuyuhun people are poor, there is no tile on the top, there is no land to stand on the bottom, and the herdsmen rely on a few lean sheep to earn their lives in the wind and snow, what horses and fat cattle are there?

Horses have long become the mounts of Chang'an nobles, or in the racecourse for the Tang Dynasty giants to make money, as for the fat cow, Tuguhun fat cow, has long been Chang'an people shabu shabu, or boiled into large pieces of braised beef to eat, Chang'an people now eat sixty percent of the fat cattle are from Linzhou, the remaining forty percent from Yinshan ranch.

Shangguan Yi's map cannon-like attack, because there is no focus, so the attack power is not strong, this is Shangguan Yi, the prime minister in Luoyang, the capital of the gods, was tossed by the emperor and the queen, and wanted to pull Chang'an as a back, hoping to lead the emperor, the queen's eyes from the gods to Chang'an, and then let him take a breath and breathe.

"In the past, if the Tang Dynasty wanted to expand its territory, it needed the soldiers to chew the grass roots and exchange their lives.

Now it's okay, the plot of land that people get down, take the initiative to ask the emperor for seal, the court is nothing more than a set of official uniforms, a seal letter, and then give this guy's wife, wife, to a five- or six-grade county gentleman and other titles, and the child to an honest man and other rewards that don't even smell the dog, you can include such a large piece of land into the territory, this kind of good thing also needs to be refused?

What does Shangguan Yi think? Such a man is worthy of being a prime minister?"

After Wen Wen heard the news, he smashed all the wine glasses of Qi.

He thinks that whether the land is useful or not, it is good to hold it in your hands first, and this kind of place will be governed by those who have been beaten down, and it is naturally a good thing to receive taxes, and it doesn't matter if you can't collect taxes.

Once someone starts to govern a place, there will be output slowly, how to realize the output, only come to Datang, so a little bit of accumulation, the country will always have income, it will become stronger little by little, even if it is a penny, it can also let the prime minister Shangguanyi buy a toilet paper...... Isn't the state treasury of the imperial court saved a penny?

After gently talking about his toilet paper, Shangguan Yi's reputation in Chang'an and Luoyang stinks.

Everybody's guessing

How big is the intestine of the measuring official, so that such a big benefit cannot be seen.

Some people also believe that Shangguan Yi has a huge head, and the face of a person with a big head must be big, and the person with a big face must be ......

In the face of the rumors, Shangguan Yi was good-natured, and replied to those rumors: "The old man likes to use bamboo chips after his congratulations, well, it is the same as the bamboo chips used in the Jinchangfang canteen."

This is a malicious attack by name, but everyone knows that so far, only Chang'an people are willing to use toilet paper after paying tribute, and the rest of the places still like to use bamboo chips to scrape.

Therefore, the toilet paper theory will only come from Chang'an, it cannot appear anywhere else, it will only come from Yun Chu, the gentle mouth, and it will definitely not come from the mouth of others, Shangguan Yi's disgusting attack is not unruly and lost.

Li Hong, who had just returned to Luoyang, the capital of the gods, after hearing about this, summoned all the heroes who stayed in Luoyang to wait for the enclosure of the territory, and no matter what their identities were and what they did before, they were all invited to the Baihualou in the East Palace for a banquet.

During the banquet, Han Gaozu's "Song of the Great Wind" was sung - the wind was blowing and the clouds were flying, and An's Mengshi was guarding the Quartet!

For a time, those heroes who opened up the territory kowtowed like garlic!

"Song of the Great Wind" is an emperor song, in the Tang Dynasty, there are only two people who can sing this song in public, one is the current emperor Li Zhi of the Tang Dynasty, and the other is Li Hong, the future emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

After hearing the news that Li Hong was rewarding these people in the East Palace, the courtiers also turned a blind eye to the Tang Dynasty's folk behavior of expanding their territory.

Even if the Tang Emperor Li Zhi agreed to Shangguanyi's suggestion, the policy would still come back when Li Hong ascended the throne.

People are not in the mood to do such a thankless task.

Li Zhi had no opinion on this kind of non-governmental expansion, but he approved the rest of Shangguanyi's opinions.

A huge investigation team composed of the imperial history and the officials of the East and West Pavilions left the Shendu the next day and went to Chang'an in a mighty way, with two main investigation objects, one is the British Duke Li Ji, and the other is the deputy of Chang'an who stayed behind Yunchu.
