Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 2019
The new year is very close, and the new year is coming soon.

The officials of Datang are about to take a rest.

The news that Qin Wu brought back many seeds spread in Chang'an City.

Many people were very jealous when they heard the news.

Those are seeds brought back from other places. The things grown from these seeds must be expensive, right?

Qin Wu and the others went out to sea once, and then they were going to make a fortune.

This situation really makes people jealous.

Of course, it is normal for some people to be jealous, but people like Changsun Wuji are not just jealous. They have extended their thoughts from these seeds, and they suddenly thought that Qin Tian possessed these seeds, so he Wouldn't it be easy to build your own fiefdom?

Then he will soon become rich and strong in his own fief, right?
If he becomes stronger, the situation will not be a good thing for them.

Although Qin Tian only has five thousand soldiers and horses now, as a vassal king, it is normal to have tens of thousands of soldiers and horses under him, as long as it does not exceed one hundred thousand.

In the land of Xiliang, there are very few people, but that doesn't mean they can't really become strong.

They felt that they had to get rid of the bottom line and fundamentally solve the possibility of Qin Tian being strong.

They want Qin Tian to go to Xiliang to be a poor prince. A poor prince can't do anything, because they firmly believe that everything in this world needs money to solve problems.

The last court meeting of the year.

Li Shimin doesn't pay much attention to it, because at this last court meeting, unless there is a particularly important matter, under normal circumstances, no one will jump out and talk about it. , or wait until after the year.

But no matter whether it is to add a court meeting or wait for the new year to say, it is not what they want, so everyone is very conscious and will avoid some difficult things to solve.

And at this moment, an official stood up.

"Your Majesty, I have this performance."

This is a speech officer, known for his uprightness in the court.

Li Shimin glanced at him and asked, "What is Aiqing going to do?"

"Your Majesty, I heard that Qin Tian wanted to bring some black slaves with him to his fief, and I feel that this is inappropriate."

Li Shimin was a little surprised when he heard that the official was for this matter, and asked, "Oh, why is it wrong?"

"My lord, if those seeds can really increase food production, there will be countless people alive. If so, such important things should be planted in densely populated areas, so that more people can be saved. There are not many people, so there is no need for a lot of food, so what is the use of Qin Tian getting the seeds of those crops to plant?"

"There are also those black slaves. I don't have slaves in Great Tang. They don't have the identity of my Great Tang. It's not appropriate for Qin Tian to take them away like this."

The situation that this official said, no matter who heard it, would find it ridiculous. These crops can live countless lives, but it cannot be stopped because Xiliang does not have so many people.

If there is only one person in your family, you don't have to make money anymore, so you can eat better?
This official's remarks are fallacies. Anyone can stand up and refute them, and it is easy to refute them. Many people are surprised. For this reason, where did this official come from? Just stand like this. Come out and say it?

Everyone is very curious, I have never seen such a clumsy person.

But this official just stood up and said so.

His purpose is not here. He just wants to remind Li Shimin that if Xiliang has a lot of food, it will be able to feed many people, and even many people will migrate there. Once the population of Xiliang increases, Qin Tian's strength will be greatly reduced Big.

Can Wang with a different surname allow him to possess so much strength?

This official believed that Li Shimin was not an idiot. As long as he said this, Li Shimin would definitely understand everything.

And that was indeed the case. After the official finished speaking, Li Shimin thought of this, but after Li Shimin thought of this, he also felt a little powerless.

When we first went to sea, it was agreed that the things we got back, such as seeds, can be planted first by those who contribute money and effort, and then promote it. In this way, there is no problem for Qin Tian to plant and promote it, right?

Moreover, even if Qin Tian becomes king in Xiliang, Xiliang is still his Great Tang territory. Don't the people there need to develop?
Just because there is a king with a different surname in that place, it is unreasonable to let the people there suffer.

Qin Tian is not that kind of selfish person, neither is Li Shimin.

In many cases, they are better able to see the overall situation and know that the overall situation is the most important thing.

Therefore, after the official finished speaking, Li Shimin waved his hand before other officials came forward to agree or object, and said: "The emperor said that a four-horse horse is hard to chase. Since Qin Tian and the others agreed to plant it, then they will It can be planted, I mean what I say, you don’t have to object, it’s useless to object, Qin Aiqing is loyal to my Tang Dynasty, I don’t like to hear comments that are not good for him.”

Things cannot be stopped, so Li Shimin can naturally say this in a more beautiful and pleasant way.

After he finished speaking, many officials in the court couldn't help being stunned for a moment, as if they didn't expect it.

They felt that the Son of Heaven was suspicious, and they didn't want the king with a different surname to be too powerful. If so, Li Shimin would definitely want to take back Qin Tian's seeds or something.

But what they didn't expect was that Li Shimin had such trust in Qin Tian that the seeds were just let Qin Tian take away.

Changsun Wuji's face was ugly. This was his plan, but he didn't expect that his plan would die just like that.

He felt strange, why is Li Shimin like this now?

Or did he not understand Li Shimin more and more?
Thinking of this, Changsun Wuji felt cold all over his body. If he didn't understand Li Shimin, he would make mistakes when dealing with things in the future. If he made a mistake, he would fall out of favor, and the life of their eldest grandson's family would be difficult in the future.

He suddenly became deeply worried.

He didn't know, it wasn't that he didn't understand Li Shimin anymore, but that after he was blinded by hatred, he only thought about problems from his own side, not from Li Shimin's perspective as before.

In that case, how could he know what Li Shimin was thinking?
The morning court ended like this, and the new year was coming soon. When Li Shimin returned to the imperial study, he couldn't help sighing.

"Qin Tian, ​​Qin Tian, ​​don't disappoint my trust in you, I hope you will always be loyal to me, Datang."
