Chapter 132 Li Xiaogong meets Li Shimin
I was born with a talent that was useful. It was hard to buy a lot of money and I was happy. I would come back after spending all my money. I would be happy as I wanted. A sentence from the Tongfu Inn in Wulin Waiji Lu Xiucai is a psychological portrayal of Li Zheng now.
Leave the things that struggle and hard work to others.
Li Zhengning chose to live a life of counting money until his hands cramped in the decadent ancient times.
The so-called hiding in a small building and becoming unified, regardless of spring, summer, autumn and winter.
What does the flood outside have to do with me?
As for what contributions to make, I think I am not a selfless person either.
Li Tai called a few aunts in the village, and Li Zheng asked them to make some molds needed for movable type printing.
After taking a break from his busy schedule, Li Zheng took a look at the system panel again.
The population has increased a little more, now there are 14,000.
It's halfway to achieve the goal.
The upward trend is gratifying.
Li Tai sat beside Li Zheng and whispered: "Li Zheng, you are so rich, how much more do you want?"
Observe the drying pulp waiting to dry it into paper.
"What are you asking?" Li Tai said again.
"Me..." Li Zheng thought for a while and said, "You don't need too much money. When I reach the age of thirty, I will retire. After eating, I wake up and eat, I will eat for a year. I will buy more land. When the weather is cold, I will go to the South China Sea for winter. When the weather is hot, I will find a snow mountain to go skiing. Yes! That's great."
Li Tai looked at Li Zheng for a long time and sighed again.
Perhaps Li Zheng is a person with no ambitions.
Li Tai looked at Li Zheng with longing, and thought that like Li Zheng, he might not have any great prospects in his life.
It's precisely someone who wants to live a comfortable life.
The country and country are too illusory for people like Li Zheng.
Li Tai lay on the grass and said, "Li Zheng, I really envy you."
"I still envy it."
Li Tai looked at the blue sky and white clouds, "What do I have to envy?"
Li Zheng paused and said, "It's a good thing to eat and drink for free after the order, and it's something that many people dare not dream of."
Li Tai: “…”
I don't want to talk to this guy anymore.
Li Chongyi came to Jingyang again and talked to Li Zheng about the result of this alliance.
Tuyuhun agreed to the conditions of the Tang Dynasty, and Li Zheng's three conditions were all subject to Tuyuhun.
The Tang Dynasty also gave Tubo a lot of weapons, including the Damo sword of the Tang Dynasty.
After hearing this, Li Shimin felt that he was a little too polite. Li Zheng sighed: "Your Majesty is still too generous."
Li Chongyi smiled in confusion and said, "Why are you so generous?"
Looking at the open space in front of me, a large group of aunts were busy making modules for movable type printing.
Li Zheng said: "I want to say that there are many types of weapons, and sticks are also weapons."
"But the stick is too..."
"If it's not good, is there a broom? Sometimes when neighbors don't get along, they will hit people with brooms."
Li Chongyi smiled bitterly, "Whatever you say, the things have been sent out anyway. How likely do you do you think Tuyuhun will win in the battle between Tuyuhun and Tubo?"
Li Zheng shook his head.
It seemed that he was not optimistic, Li Chongyi asked again: "How long do you think Tuyuhun can't hold on? How can it last for four or five years?"
Li Zheng stretched out his two fingers.
"Two years?"
Li Zheng still shook his head, "At most two months."
"Tuyuhun is not so bad, right?" Li Chongyi was still a little puzzled. Even if Tuyuhun was not as good as Tubo, he would not be so.
Li Zheng smiled bitterly and continued, "Without the Hexi Corridor, Tuyuhun will be without natural dangers. The western desert is barren and harsh. Even if they have the Damodao of our Tang Dynasty, it is useless. The use of Modao requires the number of people to line up the formation to play its greatest role. The Tuyuhun people are even more and more bulky."
After listening to Li Zheng's words, Li Chongyi was silent for a long time.
"According to what you said, Tubo will attack us soon after he destroyed Tuyuhun?"
Li Zheng shook his head, "That's not necessarily the case. If Tubo wants to attack us, we have to wait a few more years until Songtsen Gampo really pacified and unify the Tubo tribes."
In history, the war between Tubo and Tuyuhun did not last long.
After Songtsen Gampo had accumulated enough strength, he would definitely use the Tang Dynasty to make his whetstone.
This time, the Tang Dynasty defended Liangzhou, which was nothing more than a signal to Songtsen Gampo.
A Tang Dynasty is not a weak signal.
There must be a war between Tubo and Tang Dynasty, and one war determines who is the hegemon between the two countries.
However, this battle was resolved peacefully by means of marriage, but the Tubo's harassment of the Tang Dynasty did not stop in the following years.
The Tang Dynasty's thoughts on seizing Tubo have never changed. The real interest between Tubo and the Tang Dynasty lies in the Silk Road.
This is the most fundamental contradiction between the Tang Dynasty and Tubo.
Never underestimate Songtsen Gampo, he is a person who can challenge the Tang Dynasty by making Tubo’s strength reach its peak.
"By the way, Brother Chongyi, I asked you to pass the memorial to His Majesty. Your Majesty has read it."
Li Chongyi recalled and said, "It has been handed over to His Majesty."
Then why did Li Shimin not respond? Could it be that he was not interested in movable type printing and fresh paper?
Seeing Li Zheng's expression, Li Chongyi asked: "Did you write something in the memorial? Maybe Your Majesty is too busy and didn't see it. Your Majesty has many memorials to review every day. Some priorities will be reviewed one after another, and your Majesty will read important matters first."
"Maybe I really didn't see it." Li Zheng said as he thought, "I'll write another copy, Brother Chongyi will help me pass it."
Li Chongyi nodded.
When he returned to his home, Li Zheng wrote another copy and handed it to Li Chongyi, "I'm going to bother Brother Chongyi again."
"It's okay, it's just a simple task."
Li Chongyi sent Li Zheng's memorial to Ganlu Hall again, waiting for Li Shimin to come back to see.
Li Shimin, who had just returned from Lizheng Hall, saw the memorial placed on the table. Why did he send another copy after the memorial was reviewed in the morning?
Li Shimin asked: "Who sent this memorial?"
The eunuch replied: "It is the prince of the Hejian County Prince and Li Chongyi, the Minister of Rites."
Li Chongyi has performed well during this period. It was indeed a waste of Li Xiaogong sending this kid to the army. Being a civil servant Li Chongyi is also a good seedling with great potential.
After opening the memorial with anticipation, Li Shimin's color turned darker at first glance.
This is not Li Chongyi’s memorial, this is Li Zheng’s memorial!
And it is about doing business.
Putting down the memorial, Li Shimin shouted with a dark face: "Call Li Xiaogong to me!"
Li Xiaogong, who was sitting at home, received a summon from Li Shimin for no reason.
In terms of age, Li Xiaogong was a few years older than Li Shimin.
It has been so many years since Li Shimin summoned him, and Li Xiaogong himself forgot about it.
You must see him, this is the current His Majesty, Li Xiaogong got up and went to the palace.
