After Feng Deyi joined the grain collection team, he couldn't help but go to his ancestral land to collect grain in person the next day.

After Li Shimin found out, he immediately sent medical officers from the Imperial Medical Office to follow him to show the court's support and love for him.

The matter of Feng Deyi's grain collection caused a sensation in the government and the public, and many officials came to inquire privately.

Yuchi Jingde and the others all maintain an open attitude. If anyone wants to help raise food within their ability, they are most welcome.

This matter got off to a good start. Whether some officials wanted to show off to the emperor or sincerely, many people expressed their willingness to try their best to raise food.

In the end, no matter how much can be raised, the people will benefit.

The severe drought in Shandong has been finalized, and disaster relief materials from the court have been continuously delivered.

I just don’t know how long it can last.

The previous dynasty was so busy that the prince and others may not have slept well for many days.

Recently, the finished paper produced by major paper mills in Beijing is all rare and precious paper. Some are as white as jade made from green sandalwood bark, some are added with precious spices such as agarwood, and some have simple textures. Paper.

It was transported by imperial merchants to ten cities across the country and sold to dignitaries everywhere.

For a time, it seemed that everyone was working hard to deal with the drought.

At night, Li Shimin sat in front of the imperial court and read the memorial. He felt a little tired, so he walked to the couch and sat down.

The moonlight outside the palace is faint, but it seems to be able to accommodate all worries. And when the sky is bright, no one knows how much trouble will come.

Li Shimin lay down with his clothes on and closed his eyes.

He thought silently in his heart, God has a spirit, let him take a look at other people's lives.

Let’s see if there are any other emperors who have successfully turned the tide in the trough of their country and led their country to stability.

After a while, he entered the familiar void.

A huge scroll unfolded in mid-air, and a person's name appeared on it.

Zhou Shizong Chai Rong.

Chai Rong was born in the war-torn Five Dynasties. He was supposed to be a wealthy son, but later his family fell into decline and he was adopted by his uncle Guo Wei.

In order to support his family, he started selling tea.

When they grew up, Chai Rong and his adoptive father Guo Wei abandoned business and joined the army, becoming young generals in the Later Han Dynasty.

The father and son made many military exploits, but they were jealous of Emperor Yin of the Later Han Dynasty. Their relatives all died at the hands of Emperor Yin.

Guo Wei returned to Kaifeng, destroyed the Later Han Dynasty, established the Later Zhou Dynasty, and Chai Rong became the prince of the Later Zhou Dynasty.

Three years later, Guo Wei died of illness, and Chai Rong inherited the throne as Zhou Shizong.

When the Zhou Dynasty was in mourning, the Northern Han Dynasty took the opportunity to collude with the Liao soldiers to invade.

Chai Rong fought against all opinions and led the expedition himself.

This was originally an anti-invasion battle, but Chai Rong turned from defense to attack, risking his life to supervise the battle without fear of arrows. The morale of the Zhou army was greatly boosted, and they pursued the Northern Han Dynasty fiercely and returned with a great victory.

After that, he worked hard to govern, carried out drastic reforms, and reduced taxes, which made the national power of the Later Zhou Dynasty stronger and stronger.

Chai Rong determined to expand the territory in ten years, support the people in ten years, and achieve peace in ten years.

He formulated a strategy of first south and then north, and was committed to unifying the Central Plains.

Fighting in the south, he defeated Hou Shu, regained the four states in Guanzhong, conquered the Southern Tang Dynasty three times, and included the fourteen states in Huainan into his territory.

After capturing the south, Chai Rong personally led the army to the northern expedition, winning consecutive battles all the way. In only 42 days, without any bloodshed, he captured three passes, three states, and a total of [-] counties.

Just when he was about to take advantage of the victory to seize Youzhou, he suddenly fell ill and had to regretfully withdraw his troops and return to Kaifeng.

Not long after, the ambitious Emperor of the Later Zhou Dynasty died of illness in Kaifeng Long Live Hall.

Chai Rong died suddenly when he was in the prime of his life, and recovering the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun became an empty dream.

Chai Rong was born in a young age and became an emperor from a small merchant. He was well aware of the sufferings of the people.

He cares about the people, has the world in mind, and is a heroic leader.

He could have regained Yanyun and created a powerful Central Plains dynasty.

Naihe died young.

At the end of the picture, after Chai Rong's death, seven-year-old Chai Zongxun succeeded to the throne. Within half a year, Zhao Kuangyin took over Chenqiao's yellow robe and changed the dynasty.

Li Shimin was panic-stricken when he saw it. Chai Rong, who had been in power for six years in a time of mourning and chaos, made the sound of power frighten Yi Xia.

It is indeed a character.

But he died young! ! !

What was Tiandao trying to imply by arranging this person for him? ? ?

His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty said that he was not afraid of anything except that he would die young and have his ambitions unfulfilled.

He looked a little sad, and suddenly, there was someone beside him.

It was Chai Rong.

Li Shimin turned to look at him and asked cautiously: "Shizong, do you think I have the appearance of longevity?"

Chai Rong was a bit speechless.

He was born in the troubled times of the Five Dynasties after the Tang Dynasty, and Emperor Taizong was a bright light on his way to becoming emperor.

Some people in later generations still call him "Little Taizong"!

How could this deity show such a weak look? ? ?

Chai Rong, who seemed to be older, frowned and looked at the young Taizong: "Everything has its destiny, so why be afraid of it? Where is your imperial dignity?"

Li Shimin coughed and straightened his back.

"You don't know, the Tang Dynasty has just ended its chaotic times, and I have been on the throne for less than a year. If there is an accident, the world will be in chaos again."

"The people long for a stable life, and I am the hope of the Tang Dynasty."

Chai Rong sighed, that was true.

The rise of Emperor Taizong lit up the entire Tang Dynasty, and his heroic spirit influenced generations of Tang people.

He opened the door to a prosperous age and raised the Tang Dynasty to a height that would be unattainable for future generations. He was admired from all over the world.

Who in this world can be named a general of Tiance, respected as "Khan of Heaven", and can bless future generations with "The Music of King Qin Breaking the Formation"?

Chai Rong's attitude was much more humble.

"You are not the one who died young."

Li Shimin's eyes flashed slightly, he smiled, and his whole aura changed.

He was taller, raised his hand and patted Chai Rong's shoulder, wanting to say something, but in the end he just said "hmm" reservedly.

Chai Rong: "..."

He thought about his mission and said earnestly: "After the troubled times, there will be some difficulties and obstacles. Now it is difficult, but the people and the court work together to resolve the difficulties. It is only a matter of time."

"Don't be too eager."

"This is just the beginning. Recuperation and recovery cannot be achieved overnight, and natural disasters cannot be stopped by manpower."

"As long as you try your best to minimize the damage, you will win."

Li Shimin sighed slightly.

"Having said that, how can we not be worried when we see that memorials are being sent from various places and that the people are at the end of their rope?"

"The people are not living well because the court did not do enough, and it is because I am incompetent!"

Chai Rong stood with his hands behind his back: "This is your imperial path, you have to accept it."

"However, all difficult days, no matter how they end, will eventually pass. When I look back in the future, all the troubles that have been solved and the difficulties that we have overcome together will be your achievements in your career as king."

"Your path to becoming a wise king begins from here, from the worries and anxiety at this moment."

Li Shimin stood facing him.

After a long time, he solemnly performed a junior salute.

"I know that you are the king of future generations, but now that you are older than me, and you have comforted me with your kind words, you deserve this gift."

"Zhou Shizong Chai Rong, you died young, but in every crisis in your life, you never surrendered."

"You are a good emperor and deserve all the praise from future generations."

Chai Rong looked at him quietly, smiled suddenly, and then disappeared into the void.
