Li Shimin wanted to see the guilt in their eyes, even if it was a little annoyance.

Can...

After all, I was disappointed.

After all, the world is only a world, and the people are only the people after all, and the relationship between the two is separate.

Even water and fire are incompatible.

So how can the people forgive the pain of the people?

This is the same as the capitalists of later generations, whose interests and those of the workers are always in conflict with each other, and an understanding can never be reached.

"Hey."

With a long sigh, Li Shimin's helplessness was exhausted.

However, although it was a great disappointment, it was also rewarding.

At least for the punishment of these sixteen, these clans do not seem to have any objections.

After all, according to normal times, if there is harm to their interests, he Li Shimin will be questioned if he just raised it, not like the eldest grandson Wuji has said it for a long time now, and he still looks like he is nothing.

And in fact.

And that's exactly what happened.

This was the result of the meeting of their clan last night.

The disasters have been happening one after another.

The matter in Youzhou is even more far-reaching, and all the Tang scholars are staring at those corrupt officials, even if they are major clans, they dare not offend the public so much.

In addition, the officials who were placed at the border gate were basically not light or serious figures in the family, and this time they were only arrested sixteen people, so there is no need to resist the hostility of the entire world for the sake of sixteen people.

And although there is no way to protect these sixteen people, they have arrangements for the old and young in their families, and they will not treat them badly.

The things before and after the body have been dealt with almost enough.

It's just....originally thought that the plan to draw blood from Li Shimin was so frustrated, and they were still a little disappointed.

At this moment, the eldest grandson Wuji saw that many clans did not express their opinions, and instantly understood what they meant, and hurriedly stood up and said: "Your Majesty, the minister can arrange for the victims of the disaster who came to Chang'an City from Youzhou to return to their homes. ”

"When the time comes, the relief food will definitely be put into the hands of the people, and the disaster can already be calmed down, Your Majesty."

The eldest grandson Wuji said in a deep voice.

"It's good to calm down, it's good to calm down."

"Yes! That's not all, it's just the beginning! ”

"Why the beginning? I'm sure you're all surprised, and I also learned about this from General Cheng, who just came back, so let him explain it to you. ”

"Come on, invite General Cheng Jin Cheng in!"

Li Shimin said loudly.

Soon, under the recitation of several eunuchs, Cheng Yanjin was brought into the hall.

"Your Majesty!"

Cheng Yanjin saluted him.

Li Shimin nodded: "General Cheng, let's talk about it, along the way, your experience in Yanguo, and....from Youzhou to my experience in Chang'an City." ”

Cheng Biting Jin arched his hand: "Your Majesty, I will receive the order!" ”

With that, he looked back at Baiguan.

Some officials were not afraid to look at him, while others hung their heads with information.

After Cheng Yanjin made an inspection, he said loudly: "Along the way, my old Cheng has been to Yanguo, and I have also seen the recent situation of my Datang!" ”

"One of the most impressive is that from Youzhou to Chang'an City, I saw the displaced people all over the mountains, and more displaced people were on the way between Youzhou and Yanguo, they....they all joined the Great Yan...."

"The tragic situation in front of Chang'an City, all the officials, and even His Majesty should know it in their hearts, but have you ever seen the scenery in front of the gate of Dayan Yanyun City?"

"No, you haven't seen it! You can't see it! You can't even imagine it!!! ”

Cheng Yanjin's face was excited and flushed, and he said excitedly: "In Yanguo, there, I Lao Cheng saw a scenery that I have never seen in my life!" ”

"Where they are, all the displaced people can have enough to eat, and not only that, but all the displaced people can also be allocated land and find their own place."

"In Dayan, that country that is extremely mysterious to my Datang....many homeless people are emotional, and they can finally live like a person."

"This is all what I Lao Cheng heard with my own ears!"

Cheng Biting Jin's voice was extremely excited, and he was even a little angry, angry that there were so many moths in his country.

All the officials were looking at Cheng Yanjin.

They also saw the sadness and helplessness in the eyes of Lu Guogong, who had always been arrogant.

"Dayan, I'm Lao Cheng to tell the truth, it's much smaller than our Datang, it's too small!"

"This mysterious country that we have been discussing before, even now there are only two cities, one Yanyun City and one Liaodong City."

"Their country is still at war, and the emperor of Dayan, knowing that there is war in his country, also chooses to focus on attracting population, he is a smart person, and the officials of Dayan are also smart people, they all understand the importance of population."

"If my Datang is like this disaster again, it is estimated that one day, Da Yan will replace my Datang!"

Cheng Biting Jin's voice fell, and he sighed, only feeling deep worry.

And when he looked at the hundred officials, he saw that those people didn't care, and he couldn't help but be angry from his heart, and continued to say loudly: "You....you don't know, Da Yan, it's really like heaven in the mouths of the people!" ”

"The honeycomb coal that shocked us was from the hands of Da Yan, and even the Quyuan plough that was circulated in my Datang recently, Da Yan also had and applied it early, and it was better than my Da Tang, with more tricks!"

"Also, their education made my old Cheng, and even after I Lao Cheng finished talking to His Majesty, it also shocked His Majesty!"

"You remember, Da Yan, just looking at us from the north, our army was defeated by Da Yan last time, and Da Yan's living environment is better than my Da Tang, if I Da Tang is sorry for the people, the people can not only choose our Da Tang, they....can also choose Da Yan!!"

Cheng Yanjin said and became more and more excited.

Great Flame!

When he thought of Da Yan, he was really in a trance in his heart!

"When I Lao Cheng said this, you may still think it's nothing, after all, it's just lip service."

"Confucius, where are you? Come out quickly! ”

Cheng Yanjin said, and suddenly called someone.

Kong Yingda, the owner of the Hongwen Pavilion, came out of the queue and bowed to Cheng Yanjin.

On weekdays, he doesn't have to go to court, but today's morning court is really a little special, so Li Shimin specially called someone to invite him.

"Lu Guogong."

He bowed and continued: "I don't know what happened to Lu Guogong looking for the old man? ”

Kong Yingda bowed slightly.

His identity is somewhat special.

After Confucius, the world's Confucianism and Taoism are bull's ears.

Cheng Yanjin looked at him, took out a book that had been prepared a long time ago, and handed it to him.

"Confucius, let's take a look, this is the Chinese pinyin that people Dayan recognizes, which is extremely magical."

"It's much easier to give children this method than rote memorization to read and write."

"According to their methods, when the time comes, will I be able to have more readers?"

Cheng Biting Jin said in a deep voice.

The voice fell.

Kong Yingda hasn't reacted yet, but those clan officials are all a little fried.

Let literacy be more popular among the people, so where does their superiority come from?

Will the monopoly of the world over books be broken?

They looked at each other, their eyes narrowed slightly, and there was a dangerous edge in their eyes.

Yang Guang of the former Sui Dynasty, because of the opening of the imperial examination, increased the number of scholars, and allowed the people to enter the court as officials, so that the world did not like it and destroyed it.

He, Li Shimin, should be like this?

They looked at Li Shimin, the Tiance general who sat on the highest place, they looked up at him, and they became more and more puzzled, what did he want to do?

And Li Shimin was stared at by so many eyes, but he was like no one, and his eyes only looked at Kong Yingda.

Now.

Kong Yingda didn't know these glances, picked up the book, opened it, and frowned slightly.

But after a while, when I understood it, I was stunned for a moment.

"This....Lu Guogong, Your Majesty, this Dayan's Chinese pinyin is really magical, and I can follow suit in the Tang Dynasty!"

"With these, it will definitely be popularized among the people!"

Kong Yingda was shocked.

Li Shimin said at this time: "Let everyone else take a look." ”

"There are countless Chinese characters in the world, but children only need to memorize a few letters to recognize the ten thousand characters in the world."

"Then, when you are familiar with it, you can get rid of pinyin, and it is not difficult at all."

"Da Yan has other things that you can't think of, you can't think of."

As he spoke, Li Shimin shook his head helplessly.

Then after the hundred officials finished reading it, they saw the horror in their eyes, and it didn't take long for them to speak, so they nodded towards Cheng Yanjin, as if they were indicating something.

And Cheng Yanjin also had a mental mind, and directly did another experiment in the early dynasty.

Saltpeter ice!

All of a sudden, when the hundred officials who witnessed all this, they were short of breath, unbelievable, and talked about it, and they couldn't believe it.

Li Shimin took advantage of this to sigh and said: "You have also seen that Da Yan has mastered too many incredible techniques, and I.... I'm really worried that one day Dayan will rise and become a giant empire, and directly swallow our Tang Dynasty. ”

"They are too powerful, they are too terrifying, and their education also makes me feel scared."

"Really, in my heart, in fear..."

"Emperor Dayan, needless to say, must be an ambitious hero, look at this time, he attracted the people of the Tang Dynasty to go over, and also went to occupy Liaodong City, which means that he will definitely not just stay where he is."

"Sooner or later, one day, the contract between my Datang and Da Yan will be torn up, and Da Yan will face off with my Da Tang, either you die or I live!"

In Li Shimin's words, he did not hide his concern about Da Yan at all.

It is precisely because of their horror and education that they have spread to ordinary people, and even from Cheng Biting Jin's mouth, Li Shimin also heard that many of the new generation of children in Dayan can read and write, which made him feel a sense of urgency.

That is to the world, you can't figure it slowly.

It is necessary to popularize education, so that the children of Datang can also follow behind Dayan and set off a trend of education.

At that time, with the population base of Datang, even if Da Yan takes the road of education earlier than them, he Datang will be able to catch up.

And if the status quo is maintained and the plan continues to be slowly planned, then he Datang will still develop slowly, and Da Yan will develop by carriage, and the Tang army will not be able to defeat the Da Yan army before, if it is Da Yan who is popularized in education, then ....will only be stronger.

In the future, Datang will just die slowly.

Therefore, in the two aspects of slowly Xu Zhi's fight against the Shi clan or against Da Yan, Li Shimin did not hesitate to choose to fight against Da Yan.

Great Flame, Great Flame Great Flame....

The existence of that country made Li Shimin think that it was even more terrifying than the threat of the world.

So, he came up with education!

Education that makes the world regard it as the root of life!!

Oh, yes!

Obviously, it was Cheng Yanjin who said it, but behind the scenes, it was also Li Shimin's will.

As long as he supports Cheng Yanjin to do this, Cheng Yanjin will dare to say it on the current occasion.

So it's not so much that Cheng Biting Jin is saying, but that Li Shimin is saying to these clans.

Li Shimin only hoped that the threat of the Great Flame in the north would allow these clans to slow down the blockade of education a little.

Just like the Turks, because of the existence of Great Yan, the eighteen tribes of the steppe that were not harmonious in the past have all been condensed together.

He also thinks about his own Datang, so it can be.

I hope that Da Yan, an external enemy, can make the internal antiquity abandon the past and cooperate.

And at this time.

Li Jing stood up and admonished: "Your Majesty, no matter how much Dayan tosses, his land is so big, Your Majesty, why don't you send troops and fight Liaodong City with Goguryeo first?" ”

"Since we know that the capital of Dayan is in Yanyun City, and Liaodong City is still attacking with the Goguryeo army, and my Tang Dynasty cooperates, then it will not be difficult to defeat Liaodong City."

The voice fell.

The officials were silent.

Now at war?

They all frowned.

"At war? Yes, but....now there is not enough food in the Datang treasury, and if you want to go to war, each family has to donate some food to Datang. ”

"There is no grain and grass in the treasury, but it does not mean that Datang is lacking, in my opinion, Dayan will have to fight sooner or later, and if it is fought now, it will save a lot of things later, what do you say?"

Li Shimin looked at the princes.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that now is not the right time to make a big move."

"Yes, Your Majesty, Dayan is located in the north, with the Turks on it, the Tang Dynasty below, the Liang Kingdom in the middle, the Goguryeo and other countries in the east, and the Western Regions countries in the west, they have no place to develop, so don't worry!"

"That's right, I think it's better to wait for a little more food and grass before we do it."

"This year's drought has caused families, but in fact, there is not much surplus food."

Pei said in a deep voice.

The last time Li Shimin attacked the Yan Kingdom, he took a lot of grain from their major families.

The reason why they are willing to give food is that they think that Cheng Biting Jin will defeat the Yan Country, and their family will give food to Li Shimin, so it will be no problem to get a piece of the pie at that time, right?

And Li Shimin also agreed to them.

Li Shimin is a general of Tiance, and the tiger generals under his account are stronger than the other, so no one thinks that they will lose that battle, and they all think that it is a profitable business.

However, the result was the defeat of the Tang army.

Defeated!

Because of this, the food sacrifice is tantamount to waste.

Some small families have fallen behind because of this.

People don't like to make loss-making deals, and this has been the case since ancient times, even in families.

So.

As soon as Pei Lin spoke, many clan officials echoed him.

I am afraid that my family will have to donate food.

Li Shimin's face turned cold, he looked at them deadly, and angrily reprimanded a group of rat-eyed people in his heart, but he couldn't help it.

Pei Lin and others said this, what else could they do?

"In this case, then listen to your Aiqing."

"Today, retreat!"

Li Shimin got up, threw down his sleeves, and left directly.

Everyone respectfully sent each other.

After Li Shimin disappeared, there was a lot of talk in the hall.

"Is Your Majesty going to war now? This is also too anxious, I thought that Dayan was a big country, but there were only two cities, and it was so far away, when I was free, I could casually break them one by one. ”

"Who said no, what worries about the two cities, Your Majesty is really, he used to be the god of war of our Tang Dynasty, after the Turkic and Yanguo incidents, he was so bold, trying to kill chickens with a knife, hehehe, just a big fire, don't worry."

"I think Your Majesty's desire to go to war is fake, the real purpose, or whether you want us to scavenge grain and grass is real, such a time, whoever is on it is stupid!"

"That's it, last time we were fooled, many clans threw a lot of food and didn't give back, so they collapsed, and even I think this is Your Majesty's deliberate defeat, just to reduce the energy of our clan, and you must not give Your Majesty this chance again!"

"I think it's better to wait for more grain to be recovered from the people because of Quyuan Plough, and Datang will improve as a whole, and it will be too late to fight again."

"But speaking of which, Da Yan can actually make the homeless people have enough to eat, and it is not easy for me to feed so many people in just two cities..."

"This matter, who knows if His Majesty lied to us, just listen to it, but saltpeter ice and that Chinese pinyin, these are not bad."

"Indeed, let's go home and make ice."

“…….”

The officials departed.

They hadn't seen the Yan Kingdom with their own eyes, and they would never be able to recognize their strength.

Just like people always only believe in what they know, when someone says that someone is miscognizing, someone is corrected, and they will force arguments and mess with others.

Man....

For the most part, they only believe what they see.

And up to the whole country, the same.

As a result, the Qing Dynasty was pried open from the country.

Therefore, they have not seen the Yan Kingdom with their own eyes, and they will not recognize their strength.

Judging from the literal data alone, Dayan only has two cities, and the national strength is limited, while Datang has hundreds of cities, so why be afraid?

Therefore, most of the officials of the clan did not take the threat of Great Yan to heart.

Even though....

They have suffered defeats, and they are not afraid.

Even some clan officials, conspiracy theories, believe that Li Shimin deliberately defeated the war, in order to take food from their clan without giving back.

Now.

All the officials went back to their homes.

Fang Xuanling, Li Jing, Cheng Yanjin, Du Ruhui and others, they walked outside side by side.

Walk at the end of the line.

After all, when they went to court, they stood the closest and closest to the Son of Heaven, and when they naturally left, the front row became the back row, and they were the last people to come out of the main hall.

"Biting gold, Da Yan, how?" Li Jing asked in a calm voice.

"Okay, great, so good that I thought it was just a dream when I returned to Datang for a long time." Cheng Yanjin sighed.

He has always been arrogant, but now he is so melancholy.

"Hey, I Lao Cheng also told the truth, Your Majesty is actually not bad, that place is actually really, fight down early and rest assured."

"Da Yan's army, let me Lao Cheng, and Chai Shao's kid admire it very much, that Da Yan's emperor, he....must be the supreme master!!"

"Such a terrifying character, it's better not to give him time to develop."

Cheng Yanjin said very seriously.

However, the eldest grandson Wuji frowned, and then sneered: "Biting gold, this is simply a joke!" ”

"Now that our Datang has just experienced a drought, if there is a war, the people will not agree."

Cheng Yanjin's eyes widened: "Do you need the people to agree?" I have an army of sixteen guards in Datang! You still keep saying that you are for the people, and this time Hedong Road has to reduce the number of people by at least four or fifty percent. ”

"If I Datang defeats Da Yan and these people return to Da Tang, wouldn't it be better? This is really for the people! ”

Cheng Yanjin explained, and when he saw that the eldest grandson Wuji was still expressionless, he instantly understood.

The eldest grandson Wuji....is the same idea as those hundred officials.

It is not enough to be afraid of the land of the two cities in the Great Yan District.

Oh, yes....

They don't believe it, they don't believe it if they haven't seen it with their own eyes.

And if you don't believe in this kind of thing, the Ming Dynasty of later generations has more right to speak.

At that time, half of the Ming Dynasty stepped into the coffin, and the last emperor asked for money and food to fight, and to defend the bloodline of the Ming Dynasty, and then those families were stunned to say that there was no money, no money, and no penny.

Later, the Ming Dynasty was broken through the capital gates....indisputably broken, and those enemy troops who broke through their city gates did not treat these clans, whether they were clans or non-clans, equally, it was just a matter of wielding a knife one more time.

All slaughtered.

After the massacre, the enemy army also found an unbelievable amount of food and money from the homes of these clans.

They have money and food, but they! still has the last bit of luck and does not work for the safety of the empire.

Rat-eyed.

yes, always....

This is always the case for most people.

At this moment.

Cheng Biting Jin, who basically understood the thoughts of the eldest grandson Wuji, couldn't help laughing.

At this moment, he is not explaining.

Laughing freely, incomparably open.

"Hahaha, good, good, good!!"

"Auxiliary, even you don't believe it, then I Lao Cheng understands why those clan officials sneered at Da Yan."

"Yes, yes! Ok, good, good! Hold on to your pockets! ”

"Hahaha, don't give out a grain of grain, when the time comes, Dayan will develop thoroughly, and after the whole country is attacked by the Tang Dynasty, after the soldiers come to the city, then I will see if there is anyone else who can keep your food!!"

Cheng Yanjin laughed and kept laughing.

Pacing away.

The eldest grandson Wuji looked at him, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he still didn't care: "It's just a big fire, the land of two cities, my Tang Dynasty can be crushed at will." ”

"Still attacking Chang'an City? Hehe, bite the gold, do you think the emperor of Da Yan is the king of Chu? ”

"It's not the King of Chu, it can't be the King of Chu, then the Tang Dynasty has His Majesty, and it won't want to enter in the next life!"

In the heart of the eldest grandson Wuji, only the king of Chu is truly terrifying, and everything else is false.

And that man, who entered the Turks alone, would only be afraid that the grave grass would be several feet high.

Du Ruhui, Li Jing, and Qin Qiong couldn't help but smile bitterly as they listened to the two bickering.

The contradiction between civilian officials and military attaches is sometimes as simple as that.

But in my heart, I can't admire Da Yan's creativity.

But they .......

I also feel that Da Yan really doesn't need to be afraid.

What are you afraid of, what is there to be afraid of?

As the eldest grandson Wuji said, there are only two cities.

Don't worry!
