People in Datang have been expelled from school

Chapter 859
"I'm a person who doesn't have both ability and integrity. It's too inappropriate for a person like me to go to Lingyan Pavilion."

Li Shimin then said: "I'm asking you now, I can let you go to Lingyan Pavilion, but you can't."

Sometimes talking to the emperor is like talking to your boss. This kind of topic is a proposition. For example, your boss asks you if you want a salary increase.

If you directly say that you want a salary increase on this kind of topic, your boss will think you are greedy.

If you say that you don't want a salary increase, it will appear that you are particularly hypocritical and hypocritical.

This is also a way for someone who is a superior to test you.

Fortunately, even if I have never encountered such a thing in my previous life, I have seen it and heard of it.

It is the same in the workplace, especially in front of the emperor, because the emperor has the power of life and death.

At this time, you cannot answer blindly.

Understand what the other person is asking you for.

Li Zhengchang sighed, "Lingyan Pavilion is an important minister in the world, and only those who have made meritorious service to the country, as well as those who have both moral integrity and ability before, can go. I appreciate your majesty's kindness, but I am still young and have a bad reputation. You are causing trouble to Your Majesty."

Li Shimin smiled inexplicably.

Wang Ding looked at the monarch and his ministers, not knowing how to start a conversation for a while, the atmosphere fell silent again.

After a long time, Li Shimin stood up and looked at the scenery outside the window, "Jingyang is really a good place for self-cultivation. People don't want to leave when they come here. Sometimes I want to live in Jingyang, so I don't have to deal with those annoying people every day." You don’t have to think about managing the government and facing those courtiers.”

Why did Li Shimin start rambling, I've never seen him rambling like this before.

Could it be the age?
People like Li Shimin shouldn't have this kind of nagging. Li Shimin wouldn't talk nonsense if he wanted to kill someone.

Li Shimin said in a low voice: "This time, the Western Expedition against Dashi, the court has decided to send troops after the autumn harvest, and one hundred thousand troops will go to Tubo."

After saying this, Li Shimin waited for Li Zheng's reaction.

Seeing Li Zhengchang sighed, Li Shimin said, "Why is there something wrong with what I did?"

Li Zheng stood up and said, "There's nothing wrong with it. It's getting late, so I'll take my leave first."

Li Shimin stared at Li Zheng, watching Li Zheng open the door and walk out of the room.

After sitting down, Li Shimin looked at Wang Ding who was still standing aside, "Won't this kid change his temper?"

Wang Ding quickly bowed and said, "Your Majesty, why don't I persuade Chang'an Order?"

Li Shimin said compromisingly, "No need."

Wang Ding bowed and said, "The old servant will leave first."

The courtyard was full of busy maids, Li Lizhi was talking with her mother.

When Li Zheng walked out of the courtyard, he saw Li Tai sitting at the gate eating peaches.

Li Tai handed Li Zheng a peach and said, "The peaches sent by Jiangnan are not available in normal times."

After taking Taozi, Li Zheng said: "Your father wants me to go to Lingyan Pavilion."

Li Tai threw the peach pit in his hand casually and said, "Are you going to the Lingyan Pavilion? Putting aside your character, just for printing, you have made contributions to the country and can go to the Lingyan Pavilion."

Li Zheng ate some hard peaches and said: "Your father also said that the court will send [-] troops to conquer Dashi."

Li Tai followed the steps and said, "What do you think?"

"His Royal Highness King Wei, do you know what will happen when a [-] troops enter the Western Regions?"

"I heard Li Ke talk about the Western Regions. The deserts of the Western Regions are too barren, and sometimes no water source can be found in thousands of miles."

Li Zheng gnawed on the peaches and said, "It was enough for His Royal Highness the King of Shu to lead 1000 people in the desert. Fortunately, the pressure on the manpower organization was not too great, and he was able to grit his teeth and survive. A team of 1000 people can still handle it. How many mouths does a team of 10 people need for food and water?"

"The most important thing is the morale of the army. It is more difficult to control the morale of a team of 10 people. In addition, the environment in the desert is already harsh. The bigger the team, the greater the pressure, and the harder it is to march."

Li Zheng sneered and said, "One hundred thousand troops? Ten thousand troops are too many."

Li Tai said: "Then you mean that troops should not be sent? Should the number of troops sent be reduced?"

"How do I know? I don't know anything about the art of war."

Seeing Li Zheng walking farther and farther, Li Tai stopped, thinking in his heart that the crown prince was also a part of this remonstrance that he was willing to send troops.

At this time, the father also nodded, and the decision of the court has also come down.

It is obviously inappropriate to sing a different tune at this time.

But if it is a very correct counter-tune, it will be even better.

What Li Zheng said was not unreasonable. To enter Tubo, one had to pass through the Western Regions.

It will be even more difficult to command an army of 10 people.

Li Tai straightened his clothes and walked into the other courtyard. His father was sitting in the room reading a book. The binding style of the book was Jingyang's household registration.

"Father."

Li Tai stood at the door and saluted.

Li Shimin's gaze was already on the book in front of him, "Come in and talk."

"Here."

Hearing this, Li Tai walked into the room and bowed and said, "Father, my son just chatted with Li Zheng for a while."

Li Shimin looked up at Li Tai, "What did Li Zheng say?"

Li Tai bowed his head and said: "Li Zheng said that to enter Tubo, you have to pass through the desert of the Western Regions. The environment is harsh and there is a lack of water. I heard from the King of Shu that there are strong winds and sand in the desert. If an army of [-] enters the desert of the Western Regions, Commanding will become more difficult."

Seeing that Li Shimin's expression was not very good, Li Tai said again: "I know that now that the decision has been made, my father can't take it back, but it concerns the safety of the [-] troops, so I still dare to say something, please think twice."

"Qingque, how is Kuo Dizhi compiled?"

Li Tai was silent for a while and said: "The compilation has not been completed yet, and it will take some time."

Li Shimin said again: "The affairs of the court are decided by the court. It has been a long time since the topography has been compiled, and you have to hurry up. Don't mess around with Li Zheng all day long."

Hearing this, Li Tai didn't dare to refute, and quickly said: "I will always remember my father's teachings."

It is said that Li Shimin is going to send troops to the west to conquer Dashi.

Is it a bit too inflated?
Li Zheng didn't care about these, Li Shimin could be as loud as he liked.

Looking at Li Zhi who was making a model at home, Li Zheng asked: "His Royal Highness, your father has come to Jingyang to escape the summer heat, why don't you go to see your father? Say hello?"

Li Zhi was still assembling the model of the ship, and said in his mouth: "I plan to go to say hello in the evening, and besides, Miss Huang said that I will have dinner in another courtyard at night."

Li Zheng lay on the bamboo chair and said: "When the King of Jin goes down to greet you, please help me to ask your father when he will give the money. The repair of the Chang'an City Drainage Canal is going to be carried out. Your father must give the money first. start."
