Datang broom star

Wen Cheng said calmly: "What does the Prime Minister mean by this? As far as Datang is concerned, he has never had ambitions for Tubo. Instead, Tubo is eyeing Datang covetously and has repeatedly invaded."

Lu Dong admired: "There are many voices in Tubo, and I can't suppress them one by one. Sometimes I can't help myself. But I'm old, and I only want to assist Zanpu..."

Wen Cheng smiled, "It's not bad that the two countries live in peace."

Lu Dongzan glanced at the list on the table, but couldn't see it clearly, "I'm wondering if I can go to Chang'an again to pay homage at Emperor Taizong's mausoleum, and when I return, I will probably be able to leave this world with peace of mind. "

Wen Cheng said indifferently: "The prime minister is in good health, why do you say that? But if the prime minister wants to go to Chang'an, the emperor will definitely be happy."

Then Lu Dongzan said goodbye.

After he left, the maid asked in a low voice: "Princess, why does the prime minister's words sound like a hero's twilight?"

Wen Cheng picked up the list, "A true hero never takes age as a concern, even before he dies, he still remembers his duty. And Lu Dongzan's duty is to strengthen Tibet. Nothing he said just now is credible."

Wencheng put down the list, "I will write a letter to ask the envoy to bring it back to Chang'an. Lu Dongzan hopes that I can relay this to Chang'an. He wants to paralyze the Tang Dynasty. In this way, Tubo may make a move in the past few years."

……

"For the Tang Dynasty, after the Turks were defeated, Tubo became the number one enemy."

Master Jia entered the palace to introduce the current situation to his nephew, which was the emperor's request.

Li Hong pondered carefully, "But the Turks have never been wiped out. I'm afraid it will be difficult for Xue Rengui to completely wipe them out this time."

"Don't think about extermination." Jia Pingan said: "Without the Turks, there will be other forces. As long as the land can support people, countless tribes will emerge from that land. They will fight each other Annexation will eventually lead to the emergence of a powerful tribe, such as the Huns back then, and the Turks later. It will also appear in the future..."

"Then how can we avoid it?" Li Hong thought for a long time without an answer.

Jia Pingan said: "The only way is to keep the Central Plains strong and nip the danger in the bud."

Li Hong understood.

"What if Tubo is no longer an opponent?"

this……

Jia Pingan said with a smile: "I told you before that Datang must find an opponent for itself. Datang without an opponent will collapse if it can't last for 100 years."

Li Hong said: "If you go out, you will be invincible to foreign patients, and the country will perish."

Jia Pingan nodded, "Born in sorrow, died in peace."

Just an important concept.

Why was Song Mingqing beaten like a dog?It's all because they've made shrinking turtles.They clearly know that there are powerful opponents outside, but their choice is not to strive for strength, but to rely on various defensive methods to survive.

Li Hong asked suddenly: "Uncle, is money and food more important or etiquette?"

Jia Pingan asked back: "Tell me, is it important to fill your stomach or etiquette?"

Zeng Xianglin understood in an instant, thinking that Zhao Guogong is worthy of being respected as a master by mathematics, but he just turned the prince's words in a different direction, and he suddenly understood.

Li Hong really suddenly realized, "If you are honest, you know etiquette, and if you have enough food and clothing, you know honor and disgrace."

He thought a lot and went to the empress later.

"Why are you so absent-minded?" Seeing that he was distracted while eating, Wu Mei couldn't help frowning slightly.

Li Zhi asked, "But is there something difficult?"

Li Hong said: "Aye, in the past, when the gentlemen taught, they always said that etiquette is the most important thing, but I was thinking, if the common people are not full of food and clothing, how can more etiquette be useful? What kind of etiquette will you take into account if you are born with the heart of stealing and your life is almost gone?"

Li Zhi was stunned, and then smiled, "You are a prince, so of course you should pay attention to etiquette first. After Han Gaozu came to the throne, the officials were still very vulgar and had no rules. During the court meeting, they even drew their knives and chopped off pillars. Afterwards, Han Gaozu emphasized etiquette. The rules of the court are clear..."

Han Gaozu then said: I only know the benefits of being an emperor today!

It's such a cool feeling to be a master.

Li Hong said, "Aye, what about the common people?"

"Common people? Use etiquette to make them know how to be polite." Li Zhi warned: "The people know how to be polite, so they can be controlled. If they don't know how to be polite, think about those knight-errants... If the people are all such knight-errants, who can control them?"

Li Hong completely understood, "It turns out that the biggest function of etiquette is to let people know the dignity and the rules?"

Li Zhi smiled and said, "What do you think?"

Li Hong said: "The hype that those gentlemen said..."

Li Zhi laughed, "The superiors have to find a perfect reason for everything they do."

Is that so?

Li Hong was thoughtful.

After returning to the East Palace, Li Hong sat there in a daze.

Wang Xia came over and asked, "Your Highness, it's time for lunch."

Li Hong suddenly asked: "Wait, do you think etiquette is more important than eating?"

Wang Xia's eyes showed some helplessness, "Your Highness, etiquette is the most important thing."

Li Hong was startled, "Really?"

Wang Xia smiled wryly.

Li Hong understood, "People around Gu are not allowed to say such outrageous things, otherwise they will be reported to you, and those gentlemen will make trouble for you. Unexpectedly, Gu can't even listen to the truth."

Wang Xia bowed her head, "His Royal Highness, think about Yizi Xiangshi."

Li Hong nodded, "When we get there, don't talk about etiquette, even the king has to cook it in front of him."

"Your Highness!"

Zeng Xianglin and Wang Xia looked out the door with pale faces.

Fortunately no one.

Li Hong knew what they were afraid of.

"Have a meal!"

From this day on, the prince would ask for permission to go out every now and then, saying that he was inspecting the people's conditions.

……

At some point in the early morning, Li Jiyou woke up as if he had never slept.
