Datang unsigned for six years, only to know that it is Journey to the West

Chapter 205 The prince wants to rebel, respect the Tao and pit the Buddha

Have the opportunity? !

Li Shimin was overjoyed.

"Master Tianshi, what should I do?!"

Su Chen said: "Your Majesty, since you already understand that the Tang Dynasty still has internal and external troubles, it's okay if you suppress it. If you personally conquer, it will definitely explode."

"Since this is the case, then you can solve the internal and external troubles, and you can win Goguryeo without distractions."

Li Shimin nodded again and again, and said: "But, I feel that the current Tang Dynasty is prosperous and prosperous, and there is no internal or external trouble. Oh, the foreign trouble is Goguryeo!"

He gritted his teeth in hatred.

Goguryeo sent someone to send a shroud to him not long ago as a gift.

That's for the dead.

On the spot, Li Shimin was so angry that he flew into a rage, and almost chopped off the messenger, but Wei Zheng and others tried their best to stop him.

At last.

Li Shimin asked the messenger to bring back a broken sword, which meant that it was obvious that Goguryeo would be broken like a sword.

Although this move was grand, Li Shimin was still so angry that his old injuries relapsed.

There is also this reason for insisting on the imperial conquest.

Su Chen said: "Your Majesty really thinks that there are no internal and external troubles in today's world?"

Then he continued: "Let's not talk about the distance, let's just say that there have been some floods, earth dragons turning over, farmers losing their harvest, river embankments bursting, bandits and bandits all over the Tang Dynasty recently, isn't that considered internal trouble?"

Li Shimin was speechless.

After a long while, he said: "These things can't be disposed of in a lifetime, and it's impossible for me to put my mind on them all the time."

Su Chen smiled, and continued: "How long can His Majesty's body and the Queen's body last?!"

Li Shimin was stunned for a moment, and he said suspiciously: "My health is very good, especially after eating three fairy peaches just now, my body is much lighter. Although the health of Guanyin Maid is a little weaker, it seems to be getting better recently. .”

Su Chen said: "Your Majesty, you can prolong your life by eating fairy peaches, but it can't help you restore your physical condition. The body of the empress is similar. Her life-prolonging elixir can live longer for several years, and the elixir that Pindao gave her is just for her to recover." The body is only getting better temporarily, it cannot last long!"

No need for too much explanation.

Li Shimin understood immediately, his eyes straightened.

He was dazed, unable to believe that he lived a long life, but his body was still tormented by illness.

It turned out that Guanyin's maid was still suffering a lot.

And he himself is also old with internal injuries, and his body is overworked and sick. Even if he can live for more than ten or twenty years, his physical condition is getting worse day by day.

indeed.

It's a huge problem.

Su Chen said: "Your Majesty, if you are not in good health, the imperial convoy will be a drag. If the empress is not in good health, if something happens to the army, it will also affect your mood and morale."

Li Shimin was depressed for a while, and he also understood the consequences and seriousness of these two incidents.

For a while, I was already in a trance, not knowing what to do.

Su Chen said again: "One more thing, Your Majesty, His Royal Highness is plotting to rebel, what should you do?!"

When Li Shimin heard this, his eyes widened immediately, and he couldn't be more shocked.

Even though they are close friends, Su Chen felt that it was necessary to tell Li Shimin about this matter, because if this matter is not handled well, there will be endless troubles.

And he didn't care if he was close or not, because he didn't know Li Chengqian well, so he wouldn't have any influence on who the emperor would be.

Therefore, he didn't care to say it.

Li Shimin would not blame him for this, and even said that he did not dare to offend him.

Li Shimin was startled suddenly, "Tianshi's words are serious? Why did Chengqian rebel? This Tang Dynasty will belong to him in the future. He, why is he?!"

Su Chen remained silent, but that was the best default.

Li Shimin suddenly despaired.

He had hoped for a little bit, but now there is no hope at all. His son Li Chengqian is really going to rebel.

just.

He couldn't figure out why Li Chengqian wanted to rebel.

He is the crown prince, he is the future emperor of the Tang Dynasty, anyone may rebel, he should not and cannot rebel!

Although he believed Su Chen's words, Li Shimin still couldn't accept this fact.

Su Chen said: "Your Majesty, people's hearts are the most difficult to guess. If you want to know why he rebelled, you can ask him yourself."

In fact, he vaguely guessed one or two.

But there are some things, it's useless for him to say too much, it's better to let Li Shimin face it by himself, so that he can accept it.

Li Shimin pursed his lips and couldn't help but shed old tears.

He hadn't cried for a long time, in fact, there was nothing worth crying for in this world.

At most, when Li Yuan died two years ago, he pretended to cry.

but.

He did so much to let future generations pass it on, but now his son wants to do something rebellious.

After all, he followed in his footsteps, and that was the most unacceptable thing for him.

A feeling of tiredness and sadness made him cry.

Su Chen didn't comfort him, and let Li Shimin cry until he felt it was okay, then it didn't matter.

Li Shimin wept silently for half an hour, until Su Ao came to change Su Chen's water. Seeing that Su Ao was so sensible at such a young age, he was very envious.

It would be great if this child was his son.

Li Shimin took a deep breath, and gradually accepted the fact that Li Chengqian might rebel, but he still needed to go back and deal with the specific situation.

It was enough for Su Chen to tell him the situation. As for how to deal with it, Li Shimin, as someone who has experienced it, must have his own means and methods.

Su Chen originally wanted to tell about Wu Zhao's situation, which was also an unstable factor in Datang.

but.

Although Wu Zhao was bold, she didn't dare to act recklessly during Li Shimin's reign.

At most, it's just doing things, not the big position you want, just want some power and high position.

However, if Wu Zhao does something, it will still bring some problems to Datang, which must be resolved.

Su Chen said: "Your Majesty, I heard that the Royal Taoist Temple has been completed. Do you still count on what His Majesty said to the poor?!"

Li Shimin was overjoyed, and said: "Of course it counts, as long as the celestial master is willing to move in, I can't ask for it."

Su Chen said: "No, Pindao won't go, but Pindao plans to arrange for someone to go there."

Li Shimin was slightly disappointed, and said again: "Who is it?"

Su Chen said: "My disciple Yuan Tiangang."

Li Shimin was taken aback, and said: "Tianshi Yuan is indeed possible, but isn't he on duty at the Jingwei City God Temple?"

Su Chen said: "He is more suitable to be in the Royal Taoist temple, and I hope His Majesty can give him all the powers that the temple owner should have. The people inside, no matter who they are, must obey his orders."

Li Shimin naturally had nothing to say.

Although the view is not directly given to Su Chen, but it is also possible to give it to his disciple Yuan Tiangang, which can be regarded as binding Su Chen.

He was really afraid that when Su Chen's filial piety expired, he would travel around the world, or fly to the sky.

Now Su Chen still keeps it, and plans to arrange for people to enter the Taoist temple, which can be said to be a booster for Li Shimin.

He couldn't ask for it.

Su Chen was thinking that by arranging Yuan Tiangang to enter the Taoist temple, he would be able to look at Wu Zhao, at least to be intimidated.

Secondly, Yuan Tiangang also interpreted the lottery at the Chenghuang Temple in Jingwei. As a master, it is hard to say anything, but he is still upset that his disciples robbed him of his business.

Such an arrangement kills two birds with one stone.

Su Chen continued: "Your Majesty, if you and the Queen's bodies are in good condition, the royal conquest will be considered a success. But how can it be done? I heard that there are some relics in Buddhism, which can be worn often to strengthen the body. Health benefits."

Li Shimin was taken aback, "Is there such a saying?"

Su Chen said: "That's just what I heard."

Actually, he was right.

The relics can only appear after the Buddhist eminent monks with merits and virtues have passed away and sat down.

It can be said that in Buddhism, they are very precious and have symbolic meaning.

but.

However, Su Chen mentioned its efficacy, and even magnified it. It is not difficult to imagine that Li Shimin will wantonly search for relics next.

This will bring disaster to Buddhism.

However, just treat it as a meeting gift from Su Chen to Buddhism.

He and the Buddhist sect had been in peace before, but now the Buddhist sect took advantage of him to retreat, and even wanted to mess up the Tang Dynasty and regard it as the state religion.

As the leader of the Taoist sect, Su Chen had to do something.

To attack Buddhism, start by searching for relics.

Su Chen said again: "Your Majesty, the attack on Goguryeo will cost a huge amount of money and food, but ordinary people can't afford it anymore, and they are stretched out from the annual income of the Tang Dynasty. This is also an internal problem!"

Li Shimin thought so deeply and nodded repeatedly.

"What does the Heavenly Master think?"

"You can borrow food from the family."

Li Shimin thought for a moment, and said: "I have killed many aristocratic families over the years, and if I ask them to borrow money, there will be many prevarications."

Su Chen said: "It doesn't matter to prevaricate, it's okay to let them shed some blood. However, if His Majesty wants to solve this matter thoroughly, there is actually a very direct way, and that is to ask for a donation from the Tang's religion!"

Datang's religion wants donations? !
Li Shimin was dumbfounded.

His face became strange, because Su Chen was the leader of the Taoist school in Datang, if he wanted to donate money, wouldn't he be the first to bear the brunt? !
as predicted.

Su Chen said: "Your Majesty, as the leader of the Daoist sect, Pindao is willing to donate 20 dans of grain first, and at the same time help all the Daoist sects in the Tang Dynasty to donate another [-] dans of grain."

Li Shimin's eyes widened!

Is Su Chen like this for the country and the people? !
Immediately afterwards, Su Chen stated his purpose and said, "Your Majesty, with so many Taoists, Buddhism's status in the Tang Dynasty is also indispensable!"

Li Shimin immediately understood that Su Chen was heading for Buddhism!
