When a country develops to a certain trend, it will always face various problems.

This is the case with today's Daming.

Internally, there is basically no worries, and it can expand outward, that is, Tianzhu.

Further west, today's Daming is not that he is incapable, but that he is not necessary.

What's more critical is that Datang has actually been eyeing it all along.

Without going that far, no one dared to pack tickets.

What Li Er thinks, even if it is Li Chengqian, he is not sure.

Besides, as far as Li Chengqian's shallow historical knowledge is concerned, Li Er actually hasn't been around for a few years.

He may not remember the exact date, but it will be ten years at most.

Don't look at ten years is a long time, he actually understands that time is really fleeting.

And, ten years, who knows what will happen in these ten years?

If he remembers correctly, his unlucky original body seems to have died earlier than Li Erdu!

……

On the other side, in the mansion of Pussiru.

When he came out of the king's house, he brought them all to his house.

Although everyone is still relatively harmonious on weekdays, if you really want to talk about it, there have been many open and secret battles over the years, but they have just tacitly hidden all this behind it.

Speaking of which, they, the important ministers of the Ming Dynasty, have not been so private for some days.

"The old man has already arranged a dinner party, and while the meal is not yet on the table, everyone chats a few words." Pu Xiru sat on the throne and said with a smile, "Everyone has seen today's situation, and everyone may understand what His Highness means, but speaking of which, this problem is actually in front of us, and it is also us who have the greatest impact." ”

After following Li Chengqian for so many years, Puxiruo is now much more mature.

After a long time in one location, many things will naturally come to you.

Qi He Li, who was sitting next to him, also nodded when he heard this, and said: "This is indeed the truth, in the future, the unification of Daming and Datang is almost a sure thing."

As His Royal Highness said, it is impossible for Datang to give up Daming, and now Daming is fertile for thousands of miles, and no one is willing to give it up.

But the question is, how will Datang complete the unification of Tang and Ming?

If it is a smooth transition, maybe the emperor of the Tang Dynasty is willing, but what about the courtiers of the Tang Dynasty?

Once the son of heaven and a courtier, if you really want a smooth transition, how should those courtiers of the Tang Dynasty deal with themselves?

We don't talk darkly, the old man knows that everyone has contact with Datang, and the old man is no exception, but it was before, and now is now, and we must recognize our position. ”

For what Qi Bi He Li said, everyone did not justify, some things were originally put on the surface, what is there to justify?

Without dwelling on this question, Yi Yuanfeng asked: "According to the meaning of the two servants, the unification of Daming and Datang will not go smoothly?" ”

"How can it go well?" As soon as he heard his words, Li Qinjian immediately got up and said, "Everyone has their own demands, but the team is like this, who wants to be replaced?"

If you really want to talk about it, those officials of the Tang Dynasty may not be able to stop Tang Ming's unification, what they are stopping should be us.

After all, it is not His Highness who can pose a threat to them, it is me and other Ming officials.

There are so many positions in the court, will it be filled by an official of my Daming Department or an official of the Datang Department when the time comes? ”

He said this much more clearly, as the so-called radish is a pit.

There are so many positions, but there are more than one or two people staring at those positions.

"In this way, I still suffer a little." Hearing this, Yi Yuanxi said, "It is undeniable that all of you here are the pillars of my Ming Dynasty, but when it comes to ability, there is still a lot of gap compared with those officials in the Tang Dynasty."

To say something that shouldn't be said, in addition to the military and the Ministry of Industry being able to compete with Datang, the Ministry of Household is left to wrestle with Datang.

Moreover, the fault line of Daming's reserve talents is serious, although my Daming Academy is now blooming in all directions, but it will take a long time to expect them to grow up. ”

"That's our disadvantage." Hearing this, Pu Xiruo also nodded, "Those officials in Datang are actually not worried about how my Daming will develop now, if they really want to unify them, they will crush me and others with a huge base."

At that time, even if we can gain a firm foothold in a short time because of His Highness's trust, it will not be too long.

So I have a long way to go! ”

"It's not just that." Qi Qi He Li also said at the right time, "As His Highness said, all this is developing under the premise that everything is normal, if the Datang one is suddenly abnormal?" If you really want to complete the unification of Tang Ming with your own hands, Tang Ming may not fight with each other.

Moreover, those brothers of His Royal Highness are really not fuel-efficient lamps, and with the support of many scholars, the road to Tang Ming's unification is not so easy. ”

For war, Qi Bi He Li is not afraid, and Da Ming is even more fearless.

But you can't help but prepare for it.

"If you really want to fight, will my Ming soldiers be afraid of anyone?" When Ihara Feng heard this, he also looked indifferent.

After so many years of fighting, it's really hard to say whether you have learned anything else, but the habit of competing for the first place in every battle has really not fallen.

"It's not a question of being afraid or not." Hearing this, Qi Qi He Li shook his head helplessly, and said, "If it really comes at that time, it will not be impossible for my Ming Iron Hoof Horse to set foot in Chang'an."

Even though Datang is now considered to be a strong soldier, if you really want to talk about it compared with my Daming, not to mention anything else, there is still a big gap in armaments.

But the problem is that if it really comes to this point, even if it wins, in terms of my current background, it will definitely be a miserable victory.

We know how far Daming has developed now, but what about Datang?

Hasn't Datang made any progress over the years, don't look at others with old eyes, you will suffer!

Moreover, compared to the heritage, we have no way to compare with the Tang Dynasty, not to mention us, the whole world, there is really no comparison with the Han Dynasty.

Otherwise, why do you think the Han dynasty has flourished for so many years without declining. ”

"What's the use of saying that?" When Ihara Feng heard this, he couldn't understand the twists and turns, and said bluntly, "Let's just say it directly, what are we going to do next?" ”

He is not a person who uses his brain, and after so many years in the army, his brain is used to march and arrange, and he can't turn any tendons in his brain.

Of course, there are benefits to such a character.

For example, at this moment, Qi Bi He Li was not angry when he heard this, and said with a smile: "Aren't you discussing this?" ”

"Discuss and discuss, so come up with a charter!" Ihara was a little speechless.

Feelings have been talked about for a long time, it's all, isn't it?

"Alright, shut up." Puxiru couldn't stand this guy anymore, and immediately said, "From the old man's point of view, in a word, you need to be hard to strike iron!"

Only when we improve our own capabilities can we occupy a place in the future.

Although there is nothing dirty between us, if we really want to talk about it, we have a lot of open and secret fights in private.

Here, the old man will say one more thing, it doesn't matter why everyone fought in the past, in the future, the old man hopes that everyone will understand who their opponent is.

Before Tang Ming's unification, the old man hoped that everyone would be more restrained.

Don't be at that time, those guys in Chang'an, we didn't win, we fought internally, and at that time, His Royal Highness probably didn't have to choose.

Of course, what His Highness said today, everyone doesn't mind.

Don't look at His Royal Highness's support for Wang Renyou, it seems that he has caused us trouble, but in fact, it is also to spur us on.

Over the years, if it weren't for the support of His Royal Highness, do you think that with our ability, we would be able to get to where we are today? ”

After patting Li Chengqian's ass without a trace, Puxiru looked at Qi Bi He Li again, and then continued, "Don't mind Qi Bi's servant, the old man is not ......."

"The servant shot and laughed." Without waiting for Puxiru to finish speaking, Qi Qi He Li interjected, "Even if it is an old man, if it is not supported by His Royal Highness, it is difficult to achieve today's achievements." ”

He knew what Pussiro wanted to say, but how could he say it.

Of course, he also understands that Puxiru doesn't have any bad intentions, but he's just afraid that he will mind.

Speaking of which, among their group, he was the highest-born.

As far as the entire Ming Dynasty is concerned, there are few people who are taller than him.

When the rest of the people heard this, they immediately laughed.

"That's natural, we didn't actually fight for anything before, in the final analysis, it's just for the juniors. But that's no longer the case.

Dealing with those guys in Chang'an, if we don't unite, we will really be killed by those guys.

Readers, especially those in Chang'an, don't have a good thing! ”

Hearing this, everyone immediately burst out laughing.

For a while, everyone seemed to have returned to the scene when they assisted Li Chengqian in his expedition to the northwest.

This is actually normal, and when domestic contradictions cannot be resolved, it becomes a natural thing to move abroad.

If they can't find a common interest group, then create a common enemy for them, and this is also the purpose of Li Chengqian's visit.

Whether there will be a battle between Daming and Datang, Li Chengqian is not clear, and it is difficult to say, but he has to guard against it.

Soon, everyone discussed some possible problems in the future, and no one knew the specific content.

But on the second day of the court meeting, Puxiro gave a recital.

In the Hall of Heroes, Li Chengqian was speechless for a long time holding the recital, and only after a long time did he say: "Envoy to the Tang Dynasty? Under what name? ”

Li Chengqian was aware of the secret meeting of this group of guys last night, and he also knew that these guys would inevitably do something after being dialed out by himself so little.

It's just that he never thought that the first thing these guys had to do was to send an envoy to Chang'an.

"Back to Your Highness." When Puxi heard this, he immediately went out and said, "It has been several years since the Tang and Ming Dynasty established diplomatic relations, and although every year I Daming will send a delegation to congratulate the Tang Emperor and Empress on their birthdays, but they have never officially sent an envoy to the Tang Dynasty.

Now, my Ming country is rich and strong, although it has not reached the prosperous era, but it is not far from the prosperous era, it is time to tell the world that in the west, there is an empire, like the stars in the night sky, rising.

It's time to tell the world that the Ming Dynasty is here! ”

His words were said passionately, and Li Chengqian didn't understand his intentions at first, but as his words fell, Li Chengqian reacted.

This group of guys wants to boast.

Exaggerating the merits of the Ming Dynasty is also exaggerating the merits of Li Chengqian, and even more exaggerating the merits of the ministers of the Ming Dynasty.

Take the lead.

I have to say, this is a strategy, at least let those people in Datang know what they have done, right? What strength and confidence do you have?

"Quasi-play." Nodding, Li Chengqian said, "In this case, this matter will be handled by the Ministry of Rites." ”

"We're in command." When Wang Xuance heard this, he immediately stood up.

"Your Royal Highness, Weichen has a book." Just after Wang Xuance received the will, Yi Yuanfeng, the secretary of the military department, also stood up.

Li Chengqian nodded, and Yi Yuanfeng said: "Your Highness, I have been fighting all year round in the Ming Dynasty, and since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, there have been almost constant wars.

Even in the midst of a hundred battles, forging my Ming peerless iron hooves, but it is precisely because of my Ming wars that there are still some deficiencies within the army. ”

"Change?" Li Chengqian was a little surprised, he didn't expect that these guys would actually hit the army with their ideas.

Of course, if such a change is beneficial to Daming, he will not refuse.

After signaling the chamberlain to take over Yi Yuanfeng's recital, Li Chengqian also smiled and said: "If you have this thought, it is my blessing to be Ming." ”

As he was talking, the chamberlain had already handed over the chapter, and Li Chengqian took it and looked at it twice, and there was a burst of surprise at the moment.

Not to mention, these guys really aren't untargeted.

They really figured out something useful.

Especially after improving the incomplete military merit system of the Ming military, it can only be said that these guys are really attentive.

"That's a good idea." Li Chengqian nodded and said, "But it's not so easy to really do it, so you can choose an army as a pilot, and if it is feasible, promote it throughout the army."

Reform this thing, it's not that easy to do. ”

For this, everyone actually understands that since ancient times, those who engage in reform have not ended well.

Of course, the reason why Yiyuan Feng dared to do this was because the environment was different, and Daming did set a precedent for many people.

"We're in command." Ihara Feng immediately bowed and saluted.

It would be nice to have a pilot.

"Your Highness." At this moment, Li Qinjian also stood up and said, "Weichen has a book...... Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, my Ming Dynasty has been based on commerce, and today, my Ming Dynasty commerce has included nearly seventy percent of the imperial court's taxes.

After some deliberation, it was time to set up a separate yamen for commerce, and handle all matters related to commerce separately. ”

To put it bluntly, they want to open a commercial department.

Hearing his words, Li Chengqian's heart blossomed with joy.

The guys finally got their hands dirty.

Ministry of Commerce!

As soon as this yamen was opened, their advantages were revealed, and at the same time, it was also their future retreat.

If you struggle, you have to start from the position you are most familiar with.
