People in Datang have been expelled from school

Chapter 658 True Ambition

"To the west of Tubo are Persia, Dashi, and Tianzhu. The existence of Tubo determines the Silk Road."

"Silk Road?" Li Shimin asked suspiciously.

"I'm talking about the business route leading to the West since the Han Dynasty. Doesn't Your Majesty want to restore that business route?"

It would be a lie to say that he didn't want to restore this business path in his heart. This business path has almost been broken since the Wei and Jin Dynasties.

It was restored in the former Sui Dynasty, but it was cut off halfway.

So much so that after the end of the Sui Dynasty, this trade route was always broken.

Restoring this trade route is a symbol of the strength of the current dynasty and a symbol of national strength and status. Of course, Li Shimin wants to emulate the strong man.

Li Shimin asked in a low voice: "You mean to restore business and win the whole Tubo?"

Li Zheng nodded, "Naturally, doesn't His Majesty want to?"

"Of course I want to." Li Shimin didn't even think about it.He said it bluntly, but when he said it, he felt that something was wrong, and he always felt that Li was just trying to set my words.

"What we want is the whole of Tubo, not just certain parts of Tubo, let it become the Tubo county of the Tang Dynasty! Let Songtsan Gampo put down Tubo? Why don't we let Songtsan Gampo take the initiative to come up with what we want? Isn't it better? Your Majesty, why bother?"

Li Shimin felt the heat on his face, and thought over and over again: "If I don't send troops to Tubo, can you handle this matter well?"

Li Zhengfan asked: "If I finish this matter, what can Your Majesty give me?"

Seeing the boy's expression, Li Shimin said with a straight face: "Are you bargaining with me? How qualified do you think you are to bargain with me?"

Li Zheng said with a smile: "Where am I qualified to bargain with His Majesty, has Your Majesty eaten, do you want to stay for lunch?"

Li Shimin has an old face, this kid really wants to chop off his head.

Thinking about it again, there was really nothing we could do about Li Zheng.

If Li Zheng left, many things would not be possible.

Just like in the arms business, Li Shimin doesn't want to kill Li Zheng yet, even though he has thought about how to die for Li Zheng countless times every night.

Looking at Li Shimin's stinky face, Li Zheng smiled and said: "Your Majesty stay for a meal."

Li Shimin nodded, "Okay!"

After speaking, Li Shimin was surprised that I agreed.

And promised so fast.

Should be a little measured.

Li Shimin followed Li Zheng and walked home.

Arriving at Li Zheng's home, Li Shimin looked at the environment here.

I don't know if it's because of the decorations in the courtyard of Li Zheng's family, but I feel a lot more peaceful when I come here.

Li Shimin asked the maid beside him, "Where is Lizhi?"

The maid bowed and replied, "His Royal Highness has gone to check the accounts, and she should be back at noon."

Li Shimin nodded, then looked at Xiao Sizi and Li Zhi beside him.

Walking up to see, Xiao Sizi actually drew a pig, and Li Zhi was still pointing out how to draw it.

The little sizi saw Li Shimin excitedly picked up the paper and said, "Father, look at the pig painted by Mingda."

Li Shimin looked at the pig drawn on the paper and said, "Mingda, tell Father, why did you draw a pig?"

The little si laughed and pulled Li Zhi over, "Brother Huang has been in the pig farm these days and can see the pigs every day, so Mingda wanted to draw it."

Li Zhi saluted Li Shimin, "Father."

Li Shimin returned the painting in his hand to Xiao Sizi, looked at Li Zhi, "I told you to worship Li Zheng as your teacher, are you just learning to raise pigs?"

Li Zhi bowed and said: "Father, I misunderstood, my son is not raising pigs, but learning about expansion and scheduling."

"Expansion schedule?"

Li Zhi took out his notes and said: "For example, the pig farms in Jingyang give birth to an average of [-] piglets every month, and there are [-] to [-] new sows. After that, how many more sows will be added, so after three years of conversion, the current pig farm in Jingyang will not be able to accommodate so many pigs."

Li Shimin flipped through Li Zhi's booklet.

There are no pigs drawn on it, but many calculations and calculations written on it.

Some of the formulas are completely incomprehensible, but it seems to be the same thing.

Look at Li Zhi again, Li Zhi is only ten years old now.

Now I can't understand what he learned.

Li Shimin turned a few pages back, and was surprised to find that the records on it were somewhat similar to the population, grain and land of Datang today?

Scheduled expansion?See the big from the small?A small Jingyang is not like the state capitals of the Tang Dynasty.

Li Shimin solemnly returned Li Zhi's booklet, because he didn't understand much, and those calculations were completely incomprehensible.

Li Zhi said with a smile: "Father, isn't your son very powerful?"

Li Shimin said with a straight face: "When you don't have to worry about pigs anymore, let's talk about your strength. Now let me learn from Li Zheng!"

Li Zhi nodded vigorously, "I understand."

After a while, Li Lizhi also came back.

Seeing Father, Li Lizhi stepped forward to salute, "Father."

Li Shimin saw that Li Lizhi finally had a smile on his face, "You seem to have gotten a little fat recently."

Li Lizhi looked at herself and said, "Is there any?"

Li Shimin nodded with a smile, "This is good, it's much better. I used to see that you were thin and couldn't eat much in the palace, but now it's very good."

The little girl also ran over and threw herself into Li Lizhi's arms, "Miss Huang, look! The pig painted by Mingda."

Li Lizhi hugged her little son and said, "Sister Huang won't be able to hug you anymore."

Little Si was laughing in Li Lizhi's arms.

Looking at this warm scene, it was much better than the cold palace.

Li Shimin thought in his heart that if one day he also wanted to stop dealing with government affairs, it would be a good life to live like this every day.

Some also couldn't figure out why they fought with Li Jiancheng in the first place.

Li is busy in the kitchen.

Xu Hui came over and said, "My son-in-law, do you need my help?"

"No need." Li Zheng said while fiddling with the chicken feet.

Xu Hui nodded and walked out of the kitchen. At first, she thought that Li Zheng's cooking might be because he disliked other people's cooking.

Xu Hui also blamed herself in her heart, maybe it was because she couldn't cook well.

In the past two years, Xu Hui has also gotten used to it. Sometimes it doesn't mean that Li Zheng cooks for one bite.

It's just that Li Zheng likes to cook more, he likes to cook all kinds of food, and the taste is not bad.

Of the men in the world who regard cooking as a hobby, perhaps only Li Zheng is the only one.

Xu Hui thought so in her heart.

The meal is served and the family sits down at the table.

Just as Li Shimin was about to sit down, Li Yuan came in time for dinner.

As soon as he entered the house, Li Yuan picked up his little son with a smile and sat on the front seat naturally.

Li Shimin sat aside with a straight face.

The maids continued to bring the prepared meals to the table.

To say that Li Shimin is the emperor, the first table should be Li Shimin's.

But Li Yuan is the Supreme Emperor, Li Shimin's own father, so it is only natural for Li Yuan to sit at the head of the seat according to his elders.

Li Yuan looked at Li Shimin, "You are busy with government affairs, why do you have time to come to Jingyang today?"
