Collection of Huaxia: the beginning of the inventory of the top ten ancient figures

There seemed to be a little disappointment in Li Shimin's eyes.

He couldn't refute Ji Dong's words.

Lost for only a moment, Li Shimin took Lin Yi's hand again, and pointed to the ruined Chang'an City in front of him, with a high-spirited tone.

"Mr. once said that in 14 years, I have made the surrounding countries known as khans!"

The grievances of the Weishui League are still in sight, but now Li Shimin is not wallowing in grievances, he is more confident.

Because of Ji Dong, he saw Tang's future!
And he will definitely realize that future with his own hands!
There is great confidence in Li Shimin's eyes, and the ambition in his eyes can be seen from Ji Dong's perspective.

"In 14 years, I will definitely let Tang's flags be planted all over the surrounding small countries!"

"Today's shame on the Wei River, I will take it back with my own hands!"

"Not only that!"

Li Shimin turned his head and looked at Lin Yi. Seeing Lin Yi's faint smile, he suddenly became extremely excited. In his excitement, he let go of Lin Yi's hand and took two steps forward quickly.

With his head held high, he seemed to have completely recovered from Weishui's humiliation.

"I don't want the Quartet to be afraid of Tang! I want the Quartet to submit to Tang!"

"I want them to come to Chang'an, and I want them to come to Chang'an as the center!"

"Let the surrounding Xiaofans respect me from the bottom of their hearts!"

"Revere Datang!"

Loudly!

Li Shimin's eyes are full of glory!
He turned around sharply, his eyes were not excited, but suppressed anger!

He said these expectations, not out of thin air, but what he knew he could do!
He is not addicted to it, and even uses that ideal to spur himself!

"gentlemen!"

Li Shimin suppressed his anger, and his tone was firm, but the beard around his lips trembled slightly with the movement of his lips!

"Tell me, can I do it!"

Lin Yi smiled, he knew that Li Shimin was not joking.

What he just said was his own construction of the future of the Tang Empire.

And Li Shimin will indeed do this in the future.

During the Zhenguan period, all nations came to court.

Among the surrounding countries, there is no country that does not admire Tang!

They came to Tang Dynasty to do business, Dashi Kingdom, Persia Kingdom, Gaochang, and things from countless countries flowed to Tang Dynasty through the revived Silk Road.

And the silk, porcelain, and tea of ​​the Tang Dynasty flowed to foreign countries.

The economy of that era and the degree of inclusiveness were not comparable to those of other eras.

Lin Yi nodded.

"Your Majesty, I will definitely do it!"

Li Shimin was stunned for a moment, then turned his head and laughed loudly, with tears in his eyes.

He can do it!

No matter what, he will do it!

Li Shimin's laughter echoed in the empty space between the Liangyi Gate and the Liangyi Hall. Lin Yi stood behind Li Shimin, and the camera followed his gaze and swept across the current Chang'an City.

The city of Chang'an in the Sui and Tang Dynasties was not as prosperous as it was during the Kaiyuan period of Zhenguan. The Big Wild Goose Pagoda had not yet been built, and there was still a piece of farmland at that time. Although there were plans for the city, it did not show prosperity, but a sense of decline.

In the early years of Zhenguan, due to wars and famines at the end of the Tang Dynasty, the domestic population was only one-third of that in the heyday of the Sui Dynasty.

Until the 13th year of Zhenguan, there were only 20 people living in the capital, and now the number will be even smaller.

A capital city with less than 30 residents!
Even in the Western Han Dynasty, which was more than 300 years away from the Tang Dynasty, there were 24 people living in Chang'an City.

But at the beginning of Zhenguan, the total population of the country was only about 300 million, which was 600 million less than that of the Sui Dynasty.

Fewer people means a feeling of desolation.

Seeing it with his own eyes, Lin Yi felt mixed feelings about the desolate scenery after the war.

The audience who saw this scene felt a little uncomfortable.

"At the end of the Sui Dynasty, wars broke out. At that time, Li Shimin was able to decisively revolt. It took only eight years to end the wars. As far as this achievement is concerned, it is also the first."

"Oh, I really can't imagine what kind of resourcefulness and hard work a person has to turn the scene in front of him into the prosperous Zhenguan later!"

"What should I do? I feel so sad for the emperor."

"This scene is too real. When I think of every generation of emperors rising from this kind of war, I feel so sad. Our Huaxia has grown from the abolition step by step!"

"It's so touching. I have run out of tissues. This resonates too much with future generations. We also stood up from the wasteland!"

"everything will get better!"

Li Shimin stood in front of the Liangyi Hall, in front of him was the city of Chang'an that was waiting to be rebuilt, and it was the city of Chang'an that was waiting for him to revitalize!
On the screen, Li Shimin was frozen in front of the door, and the whole picture gradually began to flow rapidly.

The figure of Li Shimin standing in front of the gate of Liangyi Hall gradually changed from tall and straight to a bit hunched, and the white of the black beard and hair on his head gradually increased.

This change is not fast, but advancing at a moderate speed.

The speed is just enough to allow the audience to intuitively see all the changes in front of them.

In front of Chang'an City, from the farmland at the beginning, the situation of Pepsi's decline has changed little by little.

From nothing.

From decay to prosperity.

From farmland to tall buildings step by step!
From sparsely populated to gradually becoming crowded!

Camels, spices, jewels, black threads shining with dark golden light flowed into Chang'an City from all directions!

But Li Shimin in front of the city tower and the gate of the palace became vicissitudes day by day.

The picture gradually stabilized, Li Shimin turned around, his face had clearly left traces of the years.

The slack cheeks piled up into folds, the gray beard was mixed with some black beard and hair, and the originally shining eyes gradually darkened, becoming vicissitudes and introverted.

In the past 14 years, he has worked hard, worked hard, and worked diligently for 14 years. Finally, he personally built the city of Chang'an, which was in decline 14 years ago, into what it is today.

In the camera, Li Shimin's aging appearance is in stark contrast to the prosperous Chang'an City behind him.

Lin Yi stood behind Li Shimin, Li Shimin was taken aback for a moment, and then smiled.

His smile is like the young emperor who made great wishes in front of the hall just now, but he hides a lot of things.

It's joy, it's sadness, and it's a little bit of grievance.

He has been walking muddy step by step in the past 14 years, and now seeing Ji Dong, he seems to have found someone to talk to, his smile is mixed with thousands of emotions.

"Sir, we finally meet again!"

Li Shimin walked over. Although he was old, his body was still strong.

"Your Majesty, we finally meet again."

For Lin Yi and the audience, the changes in these 14 years are just a matter of a few minutes, but for Li Shimin, they have come step by step.

Li Shimin held Ji Dong's hand, which was wrinkled and still powerful.

He looked at Ji Dong, observed Ji Yi's appearance carefully, with emotion in his eyes, and then, as if thinking of something, he quickly pulled Ji Dong to the entrance of the main hall, pointed at Chang'an City in front of him!

"gentlemen!"

"I did it! Just as my husband said, I have been in power for four years to destroy the Turks!"

"Five years of ordinary people!"

"Nine years flattening the valley!"

"Fight Gaochang! Fight Khotan!"

"I have been in power for 14 years now! And the world is at peace! 29 countries pay tribute and surrender!"

"Respect me as God Khan!"

Li Shimin's tone was full of pride!

"And I still have a lot of time!"

Li Shimin pointed to the southeast direction with a bold tone.

"In the future, I will conquer the east and destroy Goguryeo!"

"Sir, do you know that Goguryeo has now built a city wall to guard against me, Tang Dynasty!"

Li Shimin was emotional, and the humiliation for many years was completely wiped away. He had no one to tell about these achievements. Now that Lin Yi is here, he can't wait to tell him all the excitement in his heart.

However, this emotion only lasted for a moment. After saying this, he gradually put away his exposed emotions. After being an emperor for 14 years, he has completely controlled his emotions.

Although his face was no longer excited, his eyes were still full of pride and confidence!

This pride and confidence comes from Chang'an City, which has begun to show prosperity!

This is the empire he built step by step, bit by bit, with his own hands!

Ji Dong looked at Chang'an City in front of him.

In the 14th year of Zhenguan, the prosperity of the world has appeared in Chang'an City!
In the square market, the gray and ruined scene is no longer, but a thriving scene.

Looking from a distance, outside Chang'an City, a large area of ​​farmland has been reclaimed. Farmers sit and rest on the ridges of the fields, or work in the fields. Some people come from a distance with lunch boxes, and some leave with lunch boxes. It is a harmonious and peaceful scene.

In the city of Chang’an, in the square market, there are department stores, such as silk, tea, Persian carpets, jewelry, jade, spices from the Great Food Kingdom, camels from the Western Regions, singing and dancing, and huqin, everything that one expects to find, everything!

From the current scene, we can see the prosperous Tang Dynasty in the future!
"Your Majesty, you did it." Lin Yi said.

Li Shimin looked at Lin Yi with a smile on his face. He laughed twice, then led Lin Yi forward, and said as he walked: "Today is the New Year's Day meeting. The Gaochang Congress came to present a book to me. Come with me, sir!"

Speaking of this, Li Shimin's tone was even more proud.

For 14 years, he conquered all around and won many battles. The cavalry of the Tang Dynasty shocked the whole country.

There is no one who does not surrender to the Tang cavalry!
Of course, some people tried to resist, and his methods were also very simple.

If you don't accept it, I will hit you until you are convinced!
Lin Yi didn't refuse, and followed Li Shimin to the Tai Chi Hall.
