March of the eighteenth year of Zhenguan.

On the grounds that Goguryeo had invaded its ally Silla, the emperor wanted to raise an army to fight against him, but his ministers supported him, and a few voices of opposition were drowned out.

Then, Li Shimin said that he would drive the expedition in person......

This time, the ministers were silent.

In just an instant, the voices of opposition swept all over the world, and the exhortation of the emperor was like a mountain and a sea!

Among them, Chu Suiliang was the most, he directly wrote a blood letter to Li Shimin, crying blood word by word, and strongly persuaded the emperor not to levy in person!

Inside the upper study.

Li Shimin looked at the mountains of admonitions, which were two big heads.

"That's too much of a reaction......

He was a little helpless.

Pick up a copy and put it down.

Pick up another copy and put it down.

The content is very similar, all of them are bitter exhortations, and the benefits and disadvantages are painfully stated.

In fact, he understands the reason, but this time...... I really just want to be willful!

"It's not that the reaction is too big, but Your Majesty is too child's play."

Fang Xuanling said in a deep voice,

"It's okay to conquer Goguryeo, and the Manchu Dynasty has no objection to it."

"But Your Majesty must not be able to go on a personal expedition! Could it be that all the generals of my Tang Dynasty are dead? Need the emperor himself on the battlefield? ”

"The minister thinks it's just the opposite! My Tang generals are like clouds! Just sign up for the number, and you can report a lot! Such as Li Jing, Li Ji, Cheng Zhijie, Wei Chigong, Niu Jinda...... And so on and so forth! ”

"These generals are here, why should Your Majesty take the risk?"

"Even though Goguryeo is difficult to fight, it's a big deal for you to appoint Xu Gong as the chief manager, right? He can even defeat the Turks, let alone a Goguryeo? And he's still young. ”

"What's the matter, you don't need Your Majesty to go into battle in person!"

The old man usually speaks very respectfully, but this time, he really doesn't care about being respectful!

The emperor is outrageous!

Li Shimin: "......"

He was about to refute, but he heard the eldest grandson Wuji echo:

"That's right."

"The emperor should focus on the society of the country! And Jiangshan Sheji also values the emperor! ”

"If you think about it, you need to arrange security several days in advance to make sure that everything is safe."

"It's a war! Anything can happen on the battlefield, and there is no such thing as being sure! ”

"Your Majesty, think about it, if you make a mistake, what will happen to the Tang Dynasty? What should the people of the world do? ”

"You have to think about that!"

Li Shimin touched his nose.

"Isn't there a prince......

He answered, but his confidence was a little insufficient.

The eldest grandson Wuji glared.

"How old is the prince! Can he pick up the girder now?! ”

"Your Majesty, the minister said something unpleasant...... Something seems wrong with your mind! In the past, you were all focused on the country, and everything else stood aside! What's going on now? Could it be that Wei Zheng passed away and you were completely relaxed? ”

"That's unbelievable!"

At this moment, even the eldest grandson Wuji was not polite to speak.

The emperor's remarks are about to fight with Yang Guangyou!

"Alright, alright! These people are noisy enough, I didn't call you here to twitter and teach me a lesson! ”

Li Shimin was a little annoyed and angry, and said,

"What I want now is two words - support!"

"Either you support me, or you give me back to work!"

The two looked at each other.

"Not supported!"

"Retire!"

Unison.

Li Shimin:"@#¥%......&*@#"

At this time, Li Er also had no choice but to watch the two leave, holding his forehead and hurting his nerves.

He rarely tasted this kind of 'betrayal and separation'......

Thankfully, he has one last supporter.

"Summoning Xu Fenglei into the palace."

Li Shimin instructed the waiter.

……

An hour later.

Xu Fenglei stood in the upper study, randomly selected a few admonitions, and was very happy to read.

"Okay, these are all heartfelt words!"

"Tsk...... Good scolding! But it's even worse than Wei Zheng, Wei Zheng's top-level yin and yang weirdness is the apex of the minister! ”

"Your Majesty, there are still a lot of loyal and good ministers in our Tang Dynasty! This pile is all there, it's really good, everyone is Yingchao belongs to yes! ”

"Hahaha......"

Li Shimin rolled his eyes.

"I asked you to come, did I let you praise them?"

He chirped,

"Be clear! I want you to think about it! ”

"The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty are all opposed, and Fang Xuanling and the eldest grandson Wuji have no room for negotiation! Just shook his face and left. ”

"In this situation, what should I do? Hurry up and think about it! ”

"This royal expedition, I must do it! No matter so much! ”

Xu Fenglei grinned.

"Actually, it's not that difficult."

"I have a plan to make Your Majesty achieve his goal."

Li Shimin raised his eyebrows.

"I know you have a way!"

"Quickly, don't sell me a pass!"

Xu Fenglei did not hesitate, and directly attached to Li Shimin's ear and whispered a few words.

"This ......"

Li Er's eyes flickered, and he hesitated,

"Aren't they crazy?"

"It's impossible to say yes! At that time, the court will be in turmoil! ”

Xu Fenglei waved his hand.

"The character of the Tang people likes to tune in, to get up, to get down, to get down, and to get down."

He smiled and replied,

"When you go all the way to the radical, the previous plan seems conservative, and suddenly it seems to work."

"You say, don't you?"

Li Shimin stroked his beard, thought for a while, and suddenly laughed.

"Makes sense, you kid...... Kind of makes sense. ”

"In terms of cleverness, it has to be you!"

Xu Fenglei pursed his lips.

"I have already taught this kind of simple truth to Chengqian, and they can all learn and apply it one by one."

"Your Majesty, don't make a fuss, these are very basic."

Li Shimin bowed slightly.

"What is Cheng Qian doing now?"

"It's been a few years, and you should be tired of playing in the mountains and rivers, right?"

Xu Fenglei responded:

"The Tang Dynasty has thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, and there are characteristics everywhere, how can it be crooked?"

"He is now taking his eldest wife and Turkic little wife to walk around, I don't know how happy he is!"

"A while ago, he wrote a letter, saying that he was black and thin like a monkey, and he drew a self-portrait of himself, and he almost didn't laugh at me, this kid...... Painting has a very abstract flavor. ”

Li Shimin was stunned.

"He has a letter to you, but not to me, the emperor."

Li Er sighed lightly,

"After all, it's still with you, the master, and with me, the father, like strangers."

"I actually have reflections, how could I be in such a situation with Cheng Qian?"

"He shouldn't have been so harsh, alas......"

He regretted it a little.

I didn't care about it when I was young, but I felt it when I was older...... It's so unfair to the eldest son.

"Normal, when you are born, after all, it is the first time to be a father, and if you have no experience and the obsession of hoping for your son Jackie Chan, you will become like that."

Xu Fengleidao,

"It's good to wake up now, after all, they are father and son, as long as they live in harmony for a while and talk openly about their hearts, all barriers will be eliminated."

"The most important thing is not to discriminate. What other princes have, Chengqian must also have, and he can't be a double-standard dog. ”

Li Shimin nodded thoughtfully.

"You're right...... Then should I send him a letter and care for him? ”

He asked.

Xu Fenglei groaned slightly, and said:

"Yes, but don't ask."

"You can ask him what places you haven't been and what you've seen and heard in a curious tone."

"In the past, you have been suppressing him, saying that he is inferior to you in every way."

"Now, you can start from this place, put yourself in a lower posture, expose your own shortcomings, and ask him."

"I think he will be happy to answer, and even have a sense of accomplishment when he answers."

"In this way, your correspondence will be kept in exchange, and the relationship will naturally get better and better."

When Li Shimin heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up and he gave a thumbs up!

"Don't say anything else, educate children, communicate with children at this point, you are this!"

"I'm here for you! It's really awesome, you kid! ”

Xu Fenglei smiled.

"It's nothing, it's a matter of perception."

"I never treat children as children, but treat each of them as an independent individual, to treat and communicate with each other equally."

"When you do that, there is no child who can't communicate."

"I've always believed that communication and education are just as important, if not more important."

Li Shimin nodded thoughtfully.

"In the whole world, you are the only one who thinks like this and does this."

"That's why I say, you're a wonder."

"Your Majesty has praised it." Xu Fenglei said with a smile.

At least in the Tang Dynasty, strange was still a compliment.

"Actually, I have an idea to let Cheng Qian go to the Turks to build a feudal state."

Li Shimin turned to say,

"Ke'er has made a lot of noise in Tuyuhun, and after a few years of unifying the interior, he actually has the spare strength to seek the interests of Tubo!"

"Tubo is now divided into the east and the west, and they are competing with each other, so they all curry favor with Ke'er, and Ke'er has reaped a lot of benefits."

"I have a hunch that if he is given twenty years, he will be able to eat the whole of Tibet!"

Xu Feng thundered his head.

Of course, he knew this, Li Ke also had correspondence with him, and this kid knew how to use his master's resources to do his own business.

Half of Wu Yatou's people in the Western Regions are now working for Li Ke.

If this continues, it will not take 20 years, but in five years, he will have the ability to disturb Tibet, take advantage of the chaos to seize its territory, and ten years he will be enough to set foot in Tibet!

If he can do it, then he is also a super king!

"Seeing that Ke'er has done such a good job, I now agree more and more with your policy, inner counties, outer feudalism! This is the broad road for Datang to reach the peak! ”

Li Shimin said with some excitement,

"Even if they break off relations with the Central Plains after a few generations or more than ten generations in the future, the ruler is still my descendants, and he is still the royal family surnamed Li!"

"I want the Li Tang royal family, all over the world!"

"So, this second huge fiefdom...... Turkic homeland, I plan to let Cheng Qian inherit, his ability is still very strong, if it is wasted in the mountains and rivers, it is really a pity. ”

Xu Fenglei touched his nose.

"He finally got rid of the crown prince, and now you want him to be the king of the Turks?"

He said,

"Then he's probably reluctant......"

Li Shimin shook his head.

"No, no, it's different!"

"There's a difference between the two! The burden of Datang Sheji is very heavy, and even I sometimes feel struggling. ”

"And it is very easy to go to the Turkic steppe to establish a feudal state, and he can even come casually! And with me and the imperial court as his backing, he is allowed to play all kinds of free play! ”

"Didn't he say before, that he wanted to go to the steppe to become a general? Doesn't he yearn for it? Then I will fulfill him now, give him the whole Turkic steppe, and let him go galloping! ”

"The country is well managed, and it is all his credit; If it breaks, I'll wipe his ass! ”

"There's no reason not to say yes!"

Xu Fenglei scratched his head.

This seems to make a lot of sense!

Sounds really cool......

"The main thing is that I still want to divide my own bloodline, rather than let the foreign ministers establish a feudal country."

Li Shimin said in a deep voice,

"At the very least, those who have talents in their own bloodline are sealed first, and the others are ...... I really can't help it. ”

For Li Er, in addition to his own sons, even those uncles and brothers in the clan, he didn't want to give them the title, let alone meritorious ministers.

After all...... Those people are not his species!

In his ideal model, even if the 'Pan Tang Dynasty' is divided in the future and each has become many independent kingdoms, the ancestors of various countries still recognize him Li Shimin!

"Your Majesty thinks so, it is understandable."

Xu Feng thundered his head,

"My own sons and nephews may not be reliable, let alone foreign ministers?"

"Now I will divide the prince first, I estimate that in a hundred years, when there is a crisis in the Tang Dynasty, I will loosen the mouth and use it to renew the life of the dynasty."

Li Er nodded in approval.

They are all people who are familiar with history books, and he will never have the naïve idea that there will be a family for all generations.

The dynasty has a crisis, and there is a way to solve the crisis, and it will be good to continue it.

"Actually, among the foreign ministers, I trust you quite a lot, and I can give you a piece of territory to build a country."

Li Shimin said with a smile,

"It's a pity that you don't have offspring."

"It can only be passed on for one generation, then it will definitely not work......"

Xu Fenglei glared.

"I have offspring! Wu Erya is my descendant! ”

He said angrily,

"If Your Majesty is willing, then you can seal it for me! When the time comes, I'll pass on the throne to her, and let her be a queen or something. ”

"In the future, if she has another heir, she will pass it on again."

Li Shimin was a little stunned.

"What do you think of this girl...... Great, right? Do you really want to give her all the resources and inheritance in the future? ”

Li Er said with some curiosity,

"Can you tell me why?"

Xu Fenglei shrugged.

"Do you know why Lao Tzu wrote the Tao Te Ching?" He asked.

"Uh...... I don't know. Li Shimin replied truthfully, and said, "You know? ”

"Because, Lao Tzu is willing!"

Xu Fenglei choked.

Li Shimin: "@#¥%......&*@!! ”
