Datang Nongsheng

Chapter 628 Discussing Imperial Power

Perhaps it was the reason why Li Shimin's answer made Sun Xiangfu very satisfied. Not long after, the sweaty Sun Xiangfu left the dance floor and came to the stone bench where Li Shimin was. After a simple salute, he sat down opposite him.

"Your Majesty came to talk to me in person, he must have something important to say about the country!"

"It's clear that you are asking the question knowingly. I want to ask, what do you think of the future world?"

Sun Xiangfu raised the corner of his mouth and smiled, "Can I say, see with your eyes?"

Li Shimin was taken aback when he heard the words, shook his head slightly and said with a smile, "It's not your style to be talkative, you know what I'm asking."

"Then what kind of answer does His Majesty want?"

"I'm asking you."

Sun Xiangfu nodded and said slowly, "Yes! Your Majesty is asking me, so I have to answer, so what the world will look like in the future depends on what Your Majesty wants it to be, because you are Your Majesty, the world can only be changed by your will."

Hearing this, Li Shimin was silent for a long time, and finally looked at Sun Xiangfu's clear eyes with a pair of divine eyes.

After looking at each other for a long time, Li Shimin opened his mouth and said, "The people all say that the emperor is the emperor, but the emperor is a fiction after all. I own the world and sit on the throne. It has nothing to do with the sky. It is my gold and iron horse. The ones that have been defeated in one city and one place are the ones that I have tried my best to fight with others. I am an individual, and I may be able to do many things that ordinary people cannot do through my own efforts, but I cannot control everything in the world. Just like now, the development of the aristocratic family has reached a very special stage, but I feel a little helpless."

"It's not that you are at a loss for the aristocratic family, but that you are a little hesitant about the choice you are about to make. I just asked Hongxiu what do you think of these dancing people, and you answered 'very good'. Then, I want to ask you, Do you think that the throne that you have been sitting on for half your life, is it okay?"

"In this world, you, Sun Zhengming, are the only ones who dare to talk to me like this. Do you want me to choose between the imperial power and the long-term happy life of the people? After all, you think that Wang Hao's ideas are right? "Li Shimin's originally gentle and calm eyes suddenly showed a trace of tyranny, and asked with his eyes fixed on Sun Xiangfu's.

However, Sun Xiangfu's eyes were still extremely clear, whether he was happy or sad, he just shook his head slowly and said, "If I agreed with Wang Hao's way, I would have been with him a long time ago. Would you try your best to kill him? I chose you between him and you, and this is still the case now."

"Then why do you ask that?"

"Because the throne, as long as it exists, will be something that everyone yearns for, and it will cause disputes in this world. I need you, a person on the throne, to give it an objective evaluation, so , I can better answer the question you asked me."

"This······"

Li Shimin was stunned by Sun Xiangfu's question for a while. After thinking about it, he finally answered, "I feel that the throne is actually a huge responsibility, or in other words, a huge burden. Sit on the throne." After this position, I have been thinking about everything every day, and I haven’t had a good night’s sleep. In the past two years, all aspects have improved, so I have time to think about other things. This will help you answer my question. ?”

"Yes! At least you let me know that being an emperor is not an easy task. Then, to get down to business, I just said that as long as the throne still exists, it will cause disputes in this world. Let's treat it as It is the danger of the throne to this world, so let’s talk about its positiveness to this world.”

"Hazardousness, positiveness, your argument is something I've never heard of before. Let's talk about it." Li Shimin was aroused by Sun Xiangfu's words, and sat up straight.

The area around the stone bench where the two of them chatted had already been isolated by people. On the stone table in front of the stone bench, Yao Hongxiu put a large teapot full of tea on it, turned and left.

Sun Xiangfu poured himself a bowl of tea, took a long gulp and said, "The concept of multiple consortiums that Wang Hao said before is too idealistic. I think it is not feasible, because people tend to Interesting, you have also seen that a big alliance with five surnames and seven families that have been married for generations and have intricate relationships will also be fiercely contested because of the issue of interests. If they are really allowed to manage a country together, I'm afraid , the troubled times like the Warring States period are coming.

Therefore, I think that a unified political structure is the most suitable for our Chinese civilization. Only a single voice that can decide everything can better prevent this nation from civil strife caused by power struggles and profit struggles. "

After human society has entered the age of science and technology, countries still need to have a top decision-maker in order to ensure the normal operation of a country. Maybe the name is different, called the president, the chairman, the prime minister, or the prime minister, etc. In fact, the actual meaning , are all the same, that is, absolute political rights.

Therefore, Sun Xiangfu, who grew up in later generations, first of all denied Wang Hao's unrealistic ideas. Even if the consortium can control the country's politics, it is strictly controlled secretly, not fully controlled. It is control, and it cannot be joint control. It is difficult for a country with multiple voices to maintain long-term stability.

Hearing what Sun Xiangfu said here, the tyranny in Li Shimin's eyes disappeared, because he felt that Sun Xiangfu was indeed firmly on his side and supported the imperial power to control the world.

Of course, Sun Xiangfu also said, "Then, when there must be a supreme power like the throne, the only way we can think of is to reduce the harm that this supreme power brings to the country."

"Reduce the harm caused by power?"

"Yes, when you are an emperor, you can't do what you want and say what you say, so there are fewer people who want to be emperors. When you are an emperor, you must restrain yourself and act as a moral example for the people of the world. Does it mean that there will be a lot fewer people who want to be emperors? When more and more things need to be done by emperors, there will be more and more people who are unwilling to be emperors, or If you look at the throne rationally, then, will the damage it does to the world be reduced a lot?"

Sun Xiangfu's words made Li Shimin into a state of silent thinking again.

As an emperor, he can sleep in the most beautiful women in the world, eat the best delicacies in the world, wear the most dazzling clothes and the most exquisite decorations in the world, and enjoy the highest etiquette of all people. It can be said that all beautiful things , he has finished, so, can others not be envious, can they not think about snatching it?
However, when the emperor can't enjoy these most dazzling things, but only enjoys the political rights he exercises when he manages the country!In this way, there should be no one who is willing to go all out to grab this position!

"During the time you were in Jiuyuan County, you have been thinking about this question?" Li Shimin is not stupid. After thinking about the picture described by Sun Xiangfu, he felt that this might be a direction that he needed to work hard in the future.

"No, I have been planting rice during my time in Jiuyuan County. I have thought about this problem a long time ago, and it can only be regarded as my suggestion to you. I don't know if it is really suitable or not. , Then, next, I will answer the question you asked me before."

After Li Shimin took a sip from the tea bowl filled by Sun Xiangfu on the table, he said, "Say it."

"If you are willing to work hard to reduce the harm caused by the imperial power to this world, then, in my opinion, the world in the future, at least in my native land of Tang Dynasty, will be full of the scene you see in front of you."

"You still don't seem optimistic that I can rule the whole world?"

"The whole world is too big. You don't have the conditions to truly unify it in your lifetime. At most, you can only achieve a nominal unification."

"There are no conditions to truly unify it? You mean, the population of my Tang Dynasty is not large enough?"

"This is just one aspect. The key point is that science and technology are not developed enough. When your army is transferred from one place to another, it takes more than a year or two. You can't achieve local rule at all, unless Let everyone, like the Turkic people in Shanyang and Dingxiang, be willing to be ruled by you, but the speed will be too slow, and it may not be fully rolled out in Eurasia in 30 or [-] years, let alone overseas. far away."

"Science and Technology?"

"This is my general term for novel technologies. You can think of them as shipbuilding technology or car-building technology. For example, we have advanced water ships. Originally, it took three months to travel from the Lingnan coast to the Tianzhu coast. Four months, or even half a year. Now, it only takes one or two months to get there. If you use a five-sail fast boat to sail, you can even go back and forth in more than a month.

The advancement of this kind of shipbuilding technology has narrowed the distance between the two places.If this technology advances again, perhaps, in the future, it will be possible to go from the coast of Lingnan to the coast of Tianzhu in a few days, then by then, your control of the Tianzhu area will be as strong as Chang'an's control of the Jiangnan area, and you will go down the canal , within a few days.

This advancement in science and technology will allow you to hold these territories more firmly in your hands and achieve true domination. "

"Science and technology have improved, can it really reach that level?"

"Yes. If everything goes well, within three to five years after the return of the high-sea exploration ship, you should be able to see a relatively large improvement."

Return after three to five years?They haven't even gone to sea yet!In other words, on the whole, it will take at least five to seven years to see things. Li Shimin's ascension to the throne, so far, has only been seven years. Sun Xiangfu's words, Li Shimin's brain hole belongs to a very typical ancient model, can only be said to be dubious.

He felt that it was nothing more than that Sun Xiangfu would build some faster boats or carriages at that time. This is of course good for the country, but Datang's demand for it is not urgent now, so , he said, "Then, let's talk about how to make Datang look like what we have in front of us!"

"This is actually very simple. Right now, isn't someone sending you an opportunity?"

"Opportunity? Could it be that you have thought of some plan that will be calculated?"

　I haven't received Wanshou for several months. I am very grateful to Xiao Susu for the Wanshou encouragement. I bow ninety degrees to thank!I hope brothers and sisters can also enjoy watching this, thank you!It doesn't matter if you don't have the conditions to reward friends. If you vote for the recommended monthly ticket to support, you will be very happy next time. What you want is encouragement, not tickets.
