This prince, it doesn't matter if you don't do it!

Chapter 768 Volume The sudden change of the Tang Dynasty
In fact, no one can guess what Li Er wants to do. Of course, this is specific and general, and everyone actually has guesses.

But no matter how they guessed, some things couldn't be stated verbally after all.

This is politics, it can also be said to be national policy, and it is also the emperor's intention. It can be speculated, but it can only be speculated.

After some deliberation, everyone resigned.

After everyone left, Li Er had people carry out the map of Kanyu. He looked at the territory of the Ming Dynasty without saying a word.

In the final analysis, the previous Ming Dynasty had the advantage of having a vast territory and abundant resources. Although it had a vast territory, it did not pose any threat to the Tang Dynasty in a short period of time.

It's not that the Ming Dynasty itself didn't have this ability, but that the Ming Dynasty had just annexed neighboring countries at that time, and the Ming Dynasty was not yet completely stable internally.

In addition, the composition of Ming Dynasty itself is already very complicated.

You know, even today, the Ming Dynasty is hard to describe for everyone.

After all, they have never seen a country with such complex ethnic composition and close unity!
The Tang Dynasty had Jizhou. Over the years, Li Er had asked Duan Zhixuan to work hard on them, but it was difficult to have the cohesiveness of the Ming Dynasty.

He knew what the problem was, but he couldn't change anything.

This is the most helpless place.

"Has Baiqisi paid too little attention to Gao Ming in recent years?" Li Er asked in a nonchalant manner, looking away from the Kantu map.

When the old chamberlain behind him heard this, he was speechless for a while, and then said after a moment: "Baiqisi has been active in Siam, Chenla, and Pyo before, and it is true that we cannot spare more manpower in a short period of time.

After this incident..."

Before the old chamberlain finished speaking, Li Er waved his hand and said: "We can't wait any longer. Ming Dynasty can no longer be simply regarded as a clever nonsense. Judging from everything now, Ming Dynasty is indeed a A powerful dynasty that is already on the right track.

As a father, I want to see where Gao Ming can go in the future, but as the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, I can't just sit back and watch.

Although today's Ming Dynasty seems to be still under superb control, its inner complexity cannot be explained in a few words.

If there is any turmoil in the Ming Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty will definitely bear the brunt.

This is not what I, nor Datang, want to see. "

Li Er's meaning was very obvious. Although there was still some concealment in his words, his intention was actually very clear. Now for Daming, he no longer regards it as a means for Li Chengqian to consolidate his position.

Instead, it is completely regarded as an autonomous and independent country.

This is a very important and interesting psychological change. From this point alone, Li Chengqian has succeeded.

In any case, there are not many people who can get Li Er's attention since ancient times.

Of course, this is also a very dangerous signal, because since ancient times, people who have been valued by Li Er have not ended well.

"Your Majesty, what you mean is that you will now start to separate some people from Baiqisi and sneak into the Ming Dynasty?" How many years has the old eunuch followed Li Er?
Li Er's temperament and habits can be said to be the best in the world.

As soon as he heard Li Er's words, he immediately understood Li Er's intention.

But this doesn't matter, because the old chamberlain can be said to have no position at all. His only position is that of Li Er.

Hearing this, Li Er looked at Siam again, and then said: "Now that the war in Siam has begun, we will definitely capture Siam in the shortest time.

In this way, you let the Baiqisi who are lurking in Siam begin to evacuate one after another. After all, for them, it is not safe for them to stay in Siam during the war.

If it were in the past, our Tang Dynasty would show weakness and still need them to take risks, but today, our Tang Dynasty has strong soldiers and horses, and peace in all directions, so why sacrifice these meritorious ministers like them. "

When the old chamberlain heard this, he nodded quickly, and the meaning of his words was obvious.

Evacuate, everyone evacuate to Daming.

Obviously, His Majesty is now more afraid of Daming.

Being able to mobilize hundreds of thousands of string-controllers in an instant is indeed terrifying.

Don't talk about father and son, no one can do anything in this situation!

At the same time, Gaozhou, Geng Guogong's mansion.

Feng An also invited everyone who accompanied Li Er to his home this time. He even invited Li Er, but Li Er declined.

Of course, everyone actually understands in their hearts.

Li Er knew that Feng Ang was trying to find out the truth about the Ming Dynasty. After all, he had lived in Lingnan for a long time, and his understanding of the Ming Dynasty was, to exaggerate, just hearsay.

Now that he is going to the northwest, it is common sense for him to inquire about the reality of the Ming Dynasty.

As for inviting Li Er, it was nothing more than telling Li Er that he had nothing else on his mind. Li Er's failure to come was also a reflection of his attitude.

Of course, this also reflects Feng Ang's wisdom.

He invited everyone, so it was hard to have any selfish motives.

After all, many of these people wanted to kill him.

To be honest, among these people, the only one he was most grateful to was Wei Zheng. If Wei Zheng hadn't stopped him, Li Er might have sent his troops south.

"Everyone, I think you are all aware of my intention today. A wise man will not speak secretly. I hope you will point me to a clear path. I, the Feng family, will surely be richly rewarded in the future." At the Duke Geng's mansion, Feng An, as the master, He stood up and saluted with his hands in hand.

His eldest son Feng Zhidai stood behind him, also bowing slightly.

Although he has collected a lot of news about the Ming Dynasty over the years, in Chang'an, he really doesn't have as much news as these people here.

Just like the total of these people here can't beat the Feng family in Lingnan, this is actually not surprising.

"You are so polite, Duke Geng." Changsun Wuji laughed when he heard this, "That means Duke Geng has been living in Lingnan for many years. Otherwise, how could the changes in the Ming Dynasty have escaped Duke Geng's wise eyes?"

In this regard, Changsun Wuji did not mean to flatter him.

Feng Ang may not be famous in history books, but in the early years of the Tang Dynasty, he was definitely a figure that could not be avoided.

If he had not led more than 20 states to submit to the Tang Dynasty, and he really wanted to establish himself as the King of Baiyue in Lingnan, even if the Tang Dynasty could win Feng An, it would still cost some money, which would definitely have a negative impact on the future development of the Tang Dynasty. Small impact.

At least it was impossible for Li Er to successfully send his troops northward in the early years of Zhenguan and wash away the shame of the Weishui Alliance.

It can be said that Feng Ang was responsible for the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty. "The eldest grandson was praised immediately." Feng An also smiled when he heard this, "In the end, I am just a village man in the mountains. It is difficult for me to rise to the level of elegance. How can I compare with you?"

Feng Ang is still very humble. Even though he has absolute power in Lingnan, he is not so confident when facing these old foxes in the court.

Changsun Wuji ignored him at this moment, but looked at everyone present, and said with a smile: "Gong Guo Geng has lived in Lingnan for a long time, so he may not understand the situation in the Ming Dynasty, but everyone here probably knows it well. Since Duke Geng Guo today It’s an opportunity to bring everyone together, what do you think?”

Upon hearing Changsun Wuji's words, everyone immediately began to think deeply.

Everyone understands what Changsun Wuji said, but even if they understand clearly, it would be troublesome to clarify it.

For a moment, everyone looked at me and I looked at you, but no one spoke for a long time.

Changsun Wuji was not in a hurry. His position was very clear. As long as Li Er was alive, he would be the most loyal minister under Li Er. It was as simple as that.

As for Feng Ang, he stopped talking now. He just didn't understand some things, and he wasn't really stupid. A fool couldn't put down the Lingnan Rebellion in the chaotic times of the late Sui Dynasty.

"Now that the Duke of Qi has talked about it, I won't hide it anymore." After a short silence, Wen Yanbo took the lead to stand up and said, "Today's Ming Dynasty is no longer the original Ming Dynasty. .

No matter what your Majesty's attitude is, as a minister, you should indeed treat Ming Dynasty as a possible opponent in the future.

Don't say that the Ming Dynasty's King Ming is the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty. This is actually the most untenable view.

You must know that he is now a king, the founding king who can ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor at any time. His status as the prince of the Tang Dynasty is no longer worthy of that Ming Wang.

The most important thing is that the number of Han people in the Ming Dynasty is too small, and the entire Ming Dynasty can be said to be composed of nomadic tribes.

If something unexpected happens, do you think they will agree with Datang?
Nowadays, the Ming Dynasty has strong soldiers and horses, and is even ahead of the Tang Dynasty in industry. If it can be controlled by the Tang Dynasty, everything is easy to say, but that person really wants to let go. Everyone, the tragic situation of the Five Husbands' chaos in China is still vivid in our minds. !

Moreover, compared to the foreign races in Wu Huan Hua back then, the equipment of those foreign races in Ming Dynasty will only be more sophisticated! "

After hearing what he said, everyone fell silent.

This is the truth.

The Ming Dynasty's industry is a worry for people like Duan Lun. Over the years, they have tried their best to catch up with the Ming Dynasty's industry. However, no matter how they relaxed their policies and talked about remuneration, no matter how significant the progress was, they could not catch up. The pace of Ming Dynasty.

Of course, if he knew that he was competing with a loser, who even deliberately maintained a rhythm, otherwise he would have been beaten by ten blocks, he might be pissed to death.

"This is actually true." At this moment, an unexpected voice came out, and Wei Zheng, who had been silent for a long time, stood up and said, "If Tang Ming can successfully unify, it will definitely be beneficial to Datang. There are a hundred benefits and no harm, but once a conflict occurs between Tang Ming and Tang Ming, it will be a hundred harms and no benefit to Tang Ming.

The problem today has never been how terrible the Ming Dynasty has developed. On the contrary, this is a good thing. The increasingly powerful Ming Dynasty can only show that the prince of the Tang Dynasty has become more mature. This is not a bad thing.

The real question is whether His Highness can smoothly integrate Ming into the Tang Dynasty, or whether His Highness can maintain the current situation before Tang and Ming are unified.

This is the core of the problem. "

Wei Zheng is the most boring person.

He would never look at problems from someone's perspective. Even if he was a minister of the Tang Dynasty, he would sometimes be so angry that Li Er wanted to kill him.

But if you really think that he is on Li Chengqian's side, haha, then you are overthinking it. Sometimes, he is also rude to Li Chengqian.

Anyway, that’s the kind of person he is, he accepts reason and only death!

"That's not what you said." Someone heard this and stood up immediately and said, "The question now is not only whether His Highness can still completely control Ming Dynasty, but also whether His Highness can suppress the ambitions of Ming Dynasty's arrogant soldiers. .

This time they killed brothers Zhang Liang, Li Junxian, and Liu Shuyi. This was definitely a morale booster for them.

In the past, although they had won consecutive battles, they lacked the experience to fight against us, the Tang Dynasty.

But this time, Zhang Liang's defeat will probably breed the wolfish ambitions of many people.

After all, no one has done more great than Conglong!

Zhang Liang's defeat must have allowed countless people to see such an opportunity!

By then, His Highness will not be able to make a final decision. "

Although this is a bit rude, it is true.

Even as an emperor, you have to compromise sometimes. Even if Li Er is like this, Li Chengqian can't change anything.

"This is only the best result." Wen Yanbo nodded and said, "Everything is based on the assumption made when Daming is still under His Highness's control. But once Your Highness loses control of Daming That’s the beginning of disaster.”

"Duke Yu's worries are not unreasonable." Seeing Wen Yanbo stop talking, Changsun Wuji said, "Now, the only thing we can do is to speed up the progress of the unification of Tang and Ming Dynasties, while His Highness can still completely control the Ming Dynasty. When the time comes, Tang Ming will be included in the schedule.”

Upon hearing Changsun Wuji's words, everyone was stunned.

Although they admitted that this decision was the best way to solve the problem, the problem was that this method was also unacceptable to the Ming Dynasty.

Are you kidding me? I am a real earth emperor now. In the one-third of an acre of land in Ming Dynasty, I am the emperor!

Why, do you still want to trick someone into taking him back as your son?

No matter how stable the position of the East Palace is, it can't compare to the sword and spear of King Ming!

This is different.

Not only power, but also psychological superiority.

The feeling is different between what others give and what you earn.

For a moment, everyone's eyes changed when they looked at Changsun Wuji, and many people even murmured in their hearts, is this old guy crazy?
However, Changsun Wuji didn't say anything, he just stated his opinion.

As for success or failure, hehe, he didn't care.

Some things just need to be done. It's more or less an attitude.

In other words, he was not doing this for these people.

When it comes to political veterans, Changsun Wuji is really one of the best.

As for Feng An, after listening to what everyone said and asking a few people in private, he roughly figured out some things, and now he admired Changsun Wuji very much.

Being in politics is indeed not that easy. At least the political wisdom shown by Changsun Wuji at this moment is probably not even understood by many people.
