Chapter 136 Debate in court
Li Shimin nodded and said, "Tell me."
The court became quiet and the ministers looked at Li Tai.
This is the first time His Highness of the King of Wei went to court to listen to politics and dared to stand up and speak.
Are you anxious to make a contribution?
Li Chengqian also observed Li Tai, thinking that Qingque had become more and more reckless after leaving Chang'an for so many days. Li Tai dared to stand up for so many ministers.
Li Tai looked at the ministers in the court and said, "Everyone, the hat of being a military man is a bit big."
"That's it!" Cheng Yaojin echoed.
Li Shimin glared at Cheng Yaojin.
Cheng Yaojin immediately closed his mouth.
Li Tai said, "Now that peace can be inseparable from the Meiji of his father. Of course, without these large armies, how can the frontiers of the Tang Dynasty be stable? Without the soldiers who guard Liangzhou, how can the Tang Dynasty be peaceful now?"
"His Royal Highness of Wei means that he should station troops?"
Li Tai smiled again and said, "Isn't it supposed to?"
A civil servant stepped forward and said to Li Shimin: "Your Majesty! Your Highness the King of Wei's words are very wrong."
"How come a big mistake!"
Before Li Shimin could speak, Li Tai immediately responded loudly.
Looking at Li Tai in surprise, why did Qingque become so sharp?
Li Tai said loudly: "The army is a deterrent to the border countries. With them, the border of the Tang Dynasty can be stable!"
"I, I dare to ask His Highness the King of Wei, why are the Turks at ease? How are the border countries at ease?"
Li Tai smiled coldly, "You are the counselor Tang Jian."
"It's the lower official." Tang Jian stepped back and bowed and said.
Li Tai smiled and said, "I take good care of the Turks. If you don't know, you think you always have relatives in the Turks?"
"you!"
Tang Jian was about to point his hand at Li Tai and curse, but he had to keep silent when he thought of his identity as King Wei.
Li Tai said again: "Swords in your hand are different from not having a sword in your hand. How to use the sword in your hand? The border countries do need to be wary of it, but they cannot cut military pay and dismiss the army to reassure the Turks."
The court was quiet, and everyone was savoring Li Tai's words of sword in his hand and no sword in his hand.
It's a very simple sentence, but it makes sense to think about it carefully.
"If the army is removed, the Turks will be at ease. How can you make the people in the border feel at ease! Tang Jian! What are your intentions?"
Tang Jian knelt on the ground with a pounce, lowering his head and daring to look at Li Shimin.
Li Tai bowed to Li Shimin and said, "Please forgive me for being arrogant, but we cannot put down our swords and weapons. Peace is the source of arrogance! We cannot underestimate our opponents because of our current peace."
"Border wars have been ups and downs for all dynasties! Turks, Tubos, Tuyuhuns, and even Western Regions! They also covet the Central Plains, and now peace in the Central Plains is not easy!"
"Keeping this peace is the duty of being a son and a court official, born from worries and death in peace!"
After Li Tai finished speaking, his words lingered in the Tai Chi Hall for a long time.
The ministers remained silent.
Li Shimin couldn't hide his smile, and stood up and said, "Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui came to Ganlu Palace to discuss matters and retreat to the court."
Li Chengqian looked deeply at Li Tai, who looked proud, and turned around and left.
Is a military situation arbitrarily halted because of Li Tai's words born from distress and death in happiness.
If Li Tai said this, who dares to refute it?
Li Shimin issued an order that the day did not reduce the number of troops but also increased the salary.
Regarding the increase in military pay, since the wounded soldiers returned from Liangzhou, Li Shimin thought about issuing an order.
I just couldn't find the opportunity, but now it's natural.
After arranging these things, Li Shimin continued to watch the Legend of the White Snake and read them page by page.
The story of the Legend of the White Snake fermented again.
Because of Fahai's actions in the story, many people were angry.
There is always such a villain who makes trouble in a poignant love story.
For a moment, even the monks in the market were scoffed by the people of Chang'an.
Some people even went to smash the monk temple.
Daning Temple outside Chang'an.
By chance, several Japanese envoys sent to Tang Dynasty wanted to see what the Tang Dynasty temple looked like.
I was almost unable to get out of the fire.
Three Japanese envoys covered their faces and cried. How could anyone set fire to the temple in the Tang Dynasty?
Xu Jingzong, who was standing in the distance and watching the fire, gave the money to several Rangers and said, "Please leave Chang'an to avoid the limelight."
After taking the money, they said, "It's a pity that the Japanese didn't burn them to death, but they burned a lot of scriptures."
"I understand, you guys leave quickly."
Looking at the Japanese who fled in a hurry, although Chang'an people are now shouting to fight and kill monks.
Anyway, they don’t have any good feelings for monks, so these Japanese people accidentally want to go to the temple.
Xu Jingzong had plans for the next step in his mind.
A big fire in Daning Temple was put out, but fortunately no one was killed.
The fire started to burn from the rooms where several Japanese people slept.
The final decision of the yamen in Dali Temple was that the Japanese did not blow out the oil lamp in the middle of the night. After the oil lamp was blown down by the wind, the windowsill was lit.
Then the fire broke out.
A legend of the White Snake made the residents of Chang'an sneer at the monk.
It is said that Japanese people like to get close to monks.
I don't know when some words came out.
Some people say that the envoy sent to Tang in Japan was sick.
Some people also say that these Japanese people have a short-sleeved habit and especially like monks.
Some people also say that these Japanese people steal things everywhere.
People's words are terrifying.
It was known for everyone that the Japanese were sick and the Japanese had the habit of breaking their sleeves.
Xu Jingzong sat in a tavern, listening to people's discussions, the Japanese smiled knowingly.
A few days later, Xu Jingzong came to Jingyang and told Li Zheng about his plan.
Li Zheng looked at the operation of the printing shop and said, "So you haven't settled the Japanese yet."
Xu Jingzong smiled and said, "It won't be too long, so please don't worry, the county marquis."
"Okay, I'll give you some more time."
Xu Jingzong nodded and left.
Li Zheng took out another book from the system library, Dream of the Red Chamber.
Zhang Qi from the book seal shop saw Li Zheng coming and greeted him and said, "Marquis of the County, we have already had a hundred books of the White Snake Legend."
"Yes." Li Zheng said in surprise.
When I walked into the printing workshop, ten brushed cloth rollers used in the dyed cloth workshop have been converted into machines for printing, and my aunts helped arrange the font molds.
Li Zheng pieced together small pieces of characters and paginated them according to the chapters of Dream of Red Mansions.
Although the writing of the Tang Dynasty is difficult to write, it is not difficult to recognize.
Chang'an received another 100 copies of the Legend of the White Snake.
It was sent from Jingyang again.
I thought there would be no more, but I didn't expect that I would send another hundred copies.
This disappointed many buyers who wanted to treasure it as their own book.
There is no Legend of the White Snake later.
Paper is very expensive in Chang'an, let alone books that are bound with paper.
Chapter completed!
