Chu Zhen returned to Haicheng.

In the evening, he sat in the courtyard holding the poems written by Li Qingzhao to him and read them slowly.

The next day, Chu Zhen rested for a day, did not take the initiative to summon the four of them over, and used communication notes to talk to them, only to find that once they were not summoned on a certain day, the flow of time on their side would slow down.

For example, Da Ming.

Zhu Yuanzhang mentioned Zhu Di's return to Yingtianfu and the fact that students from all over the world came to Yingtianfu to participate in the Spring Festival, and the next day, Chu Zhen asked him that he still hadn't started the imperial examination yet.

Dashun is the same, Sister Lin has only been on Sister Lin's side for half a day.

Chu Zhen was relieved at this time, he didn't have to summon them every day in the future, and it would be the same if he wanted to rest in a few days.

Nine o'clock in the morning.

Chu Zhen ordered the summons and asked them to come over.

"Mr. Chu!"

Hearing the voice, Chu Zhen was a little surprised, looked up, and found that the twenty-five-year-old Li Shimin was the first to come, still appearing in front of the map of Huaxia, which was somewhat similar to when Chu Zhen first saw him.

But compared with the beginning, the current Qin King Li Shimin has long faded from the immaturity of his youth, and has the calmness of youth, like a sword in the sheath, ready to go.

"Jiro is here?"

Chu Zhen smiled, looked at him a few times, and then said, "Looking at your expression, haven't you been doing well in Chang'an recently?" ”

Although his expression was calm, there was an inexplicable sense of coldness on his body, as if his heartstrings were tense before the war.

Li Shimin didn't answer immediately, and after smiling slightly, he turned his head and looked at the map of China.

"Sir, now China includes Turkic, Tuyuhun, Murwei and other places?"

"Yes!"

Chu Zhen stood up and walked to the map, and was about to speak, when Li Shimin smiled again: "That place in Goguryeo has become so small, or is it that Silla and Baekje have passed it on?" ”

"Goguryeo was destroyed by the Tang." Chu Zhen said with a smile.

"Oh?"

Li Shimin's face was happy, "Could it be me...... Was it destroyed by Tang Taizong?! ”

Chu Zhen laughed and said, "Are you already thinking about using troops against Goguryeo?" It's a pity that it wasn't Tang Taizong, it was Taizong's son who died. ”

Li Shimin also laughed, and did not ask if it was Li Chengqian.

Chu Zhen patted him on the shoulder humorously: "You don't know, just because Tang Taizong's rare imperial expedition failed this time, Bangziguo is now filming a TV series, saying that Tang Taizong was blinded by them when he conquered Goguryeo!" It was forced to make peace! ”

Li Shimin subconsciously touched his eyes, and scolded with a smile: "Don't they know that if the Son of Heaven is personally recruited, if he is shot in the eye by a stray arrow, how can the army's heart still be stabilized?" The descendants of Goguryeo humiliated me so much, and in the future, I led my troops to destroy it and occupy the place of Silla Baekje! ”

After having a map and knowing the importance of coastal defense in later generations, he saw that the area of Silla was a strategic place for coastal defense.

"The current Bangzi Kingdom has nothing to do with Goguryeo, before and after the Tang Dynasty destroyed Goguryeo, more than a million people have been captured by the Tang Dynasty, and only a small number of them have gone to Silla, Baekje, and Yeon."

Li Shimin nodded, and his eyes fell on the land in Goguryeo, "The population is the most important, there were eight million households in the early years of the Great Cause, and now my father has issued an edict to check the population, and I have estimated it with Fang Xuanling and others, I am afraid that only half is left." ”

"It is not a problem to develop technology, cultivate more wasteland, encourage childbirth, and have a population of 100 million."

At the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, the science and technology were a little backward compared to the Song and Ming dynasties, and now Chu Zhen has made up for it, directly transitioning to the technology of the Ming Dynasty, and superimposing some modern things, such as potatoes, corn and seeds of various vegetables, I believe that as long as the incumbents are not stupid, the population of the Tang Dynasty can usher in a big explosive growth.

As for who is in power, it is up for debate.

"How many people did Song and Ming have?"

Li Shimin's voice fell, and he heard a voice behind him: "Who is talking about my Daming?" ”

Li Shimin turned around and bowed to the Hongwu Emperor, "I'm talking to Mr. Chu about the population. ”

"Population?"

After thinking about it, Zhu Yuanzhang said with a smile: "I also want to issue an edict to check how many households there are in Daming, but I want to fight Liaodong, and I will check after the fight." ”

Chu Zhen smiled, Emperor Hongwu was already determined to win Liaodong, and he wanted to do everything after he finished fighting Liaodong.

Li Qingzhao and Lin Daiyu also came one after another.

"Lang Jun~" "Uncle Chu." ”

The two shouted to him, but they didn't sit down, but came over to prepare tea and melons with Chu Zhen to entertain Li Shimin and Zhu Yuanzhang.

"The Turks are coming south again."

As soon as Chu Zhen sat down and took a sip of tea, Li Shimin suddenly spoke.

The crowd looked at him.

Since the contradiction between him and the crown prince Li Jiancheng was revealed, he talked a lot less when everyone chatted.

Now that I speak again, I'm afraid it's ......

"Could it be that your father asked you to command the army again?"

Chu Zhen asked.

"No, it won't."

Zhu Yuanzhang sat opposite Li Shimin, looked at him a few times, and then said: "After Luoyang built the banner of the Son of Heaven, unless the emperor is completely mediocre, it is impossible to let someone with such a reputation as you lead the army again." ”

At the end of the Sui Dynasty and the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, it was not uncommon for the Turks to be in the border area, and if others could not stop the Turks, it was not impossible for Li Shimin to lead the troops again.

But the premise was that the Tang army was defeated again and again, and Li Yuan had to use Li Shimin.

"Father ordered King Qi to lead the army, recall the soldiers of the original Qin Wangfu and Tiance Mansion, and use them in the army."

Li Shimin used the word "original", indicating that most of the soldiers of the two prefectures were outside, and they were expelled from Chang'an by Li Yuan or Li Jiancheng.

Chu Zhen asked, "How many years is it now?" ”

"In the seventh year of Wude, on the sixth day of the seventh month of the leap month."

Leap July?

Although he knew that history had changed too much, Chu Zhen still looked it up.

As if knowing what he was investigating, Li Qingzhao smiled at Chu Zhen and said: "In the history books, during this time, the King of Qin and the King of Qi guarded the Prefecture of Bin, near Xianyang, Shaanxi today. ”

She pointed to the map of China and explained it to Chu Zhen.

Lin Daiyu listened and laughed in a low voice: "Compared to before, my sister has now learned to read the map of Chu Langjun here." ”

Li Qingzhao didn't look at her, he only stretched out his hand to take her little hand and knead it, and his eyes were still looking at Chu Zhen.

"Got it."

Chu Zhen smiled at her and nodded, and then looked at Li Shimin.

"Listen to it in the army of the king of Qi?"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Li Shimin, and his eyes revealed a kind of smile but not a smile: "If I guessed correctly, I summoned the others back by the way." ”

Well?

Chu Zhen could hear that Zhu Yuanzhang had something to say.

The others, even those who were not defending the Turks this time, were also recalled to Chang'an by Li Shimin.

In other words, compared to being dismissed, the generals of the Qin Wangfu were requisitioned by the King of Qi, which made Li Shimin even more jealous.

In Chang'an City, has the contradiction between the two factions of the Tang Dynasty reached the final step that must be resolved immediately?

Li Shimin's expression was calm and he didn't say it right away.

The four of them looked at him, but they didn't urge.

Chu Zhen saw that Zhu Yuanzhang seemed to be looking at Li Shimin.

Is it to see when he will become "Tang Taizong?" ”

Or something else?

"Erlang heard the plan of the Qi Palace?"

Chu Zhen asked.

In today's Chang'an City, there are undercurrents, especially in the Imperial Palace, the Qin Palace, the Prince's Mansion, and the Qi Palace.

Even the concubines of Li Yuan's harem also stood in line, or leaned towards the prince, and framed Li Shimin with the crown prince King Qi.

or was bought by Princess Qin, that is, the eldest grandson, to help Li Shimin speak and mend the rift between father and son.

Until the dust settles, you never know what the first official in your house will do for the sake of credit!

"Never."

Li Shimin finally spoke, looked at Zhu Yuanzhang, and said after a while: "I heard a conversation between the crown prince, the king of Qi, and my father. ”

Chu Zhen guessed what he said.
