Datang: Only by resisting the will can one become stronger

I saw this child, with good facial features, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, a tall figure, gentle and elegant, and a graceful temperament.

Looking at the appearance, it is even more like what the eldest grandson Wuji said, and the eldest grandson queen has a little resemblance.

It's simply a combination of the advantages of himself and the queen.

Just the first time they met, Li Shimin was full of love for this child from the bottom of his heart.

Soon, under Li Qiu's Zhang Luo, a few side dishes and a jar of daughter red were served on the table.

And Li Shimin and Eldest Sun Wuji are by no means here for this very ordinary and simple wine and food.

So, the eldest grandson Wuji beckoned to Li Qiu.

"Li Qiu, there is no one else in the store, so don't be busy.

"Come and have a casual chat with us.

Li Qiu naturally smiled and nodded, and sat down diagonally opposite the eldest grandson Wuji and Li Shimin.

"Li Qiu, how are the injuries on your body?"

"I heard your servant say that you have always been frail, and you have suffered a lot from this prison disaster.

Facing the eldest grandson Wuji's concern, Li Qiu replied gratefully: "Thank you for your concern, this injury on the kid's body is no longer in the way."

"In any case, the kid has violated the law of the country, and he should be arrested and imprisoned.

"It's still thanks to you, the eldest grandson, that the kid can now pick up a life and get out of the prison alive. Eldest

Sun Wuji waved his hand and laughed, "Although it is true that I released you from prison."

"But the one who truly forgives you without sin is the Holy One of today."

"You are alive now thanks to the Saint's broad-mindedness. "

Eldest Sun Wuji's words, Li Qiu naturally nodded again and again.

And Li Shimin, who was on the other side, finally couldn't hold back and asked Li Qiu.

"Li Qiu, you are only a seventeen-year-old child, aren't you afraid of death, knowing that Wei Zheng and Wang Qi are important criminals in the imperial court, but you still dare to take them in?"

Facing Li Shimin, Li Qiu didn't know his identity.

The eldest grandson Wuji over there didn't introduce him, and Li Qiu himself was also calm, didn't ask, just replied respectfully and truthfully:

"Lord Hui, how can this person not be afraid of death?"

"When I was arrested and imprisoned, to be honest, the kid was also scared, and every moment of every day was worried about when those officers and soldiers and prison officials would come in and escort me to the court to ask for beheading."

Speaking of this, Li Qiu paused, "But even if this situation makes me choose ten thousand times again, I will still take Wei Zheng, Wang Qi and a few other adults behind."

Hearing his words, Li Shimin and Eldest Sun Wuji were stunned at the same time, and asked incredulously: "Since you are obviously

afraid and afraid of death, why do you want to do this?" At this time, Li Qiu's eyes were full of perseverance, and the subtext in his heart was also extremely tragic: It's not because I want to get that damn system glory crystal!

Of course, his words have changed in a different way.

"Back to the two adults, although the kid is a child of the Shangjia family, he also has a heart that loves my Datang.

"Wei Zheng, Wang Jue, Wei Ting, and Feng Li are all capable ministers and virtuous ministers who have clean sleeves, are brave and loyal, and govern the country and rejuvenate the country.

"At present, my Datang is in ruins, domestic and foreign difficulties, and the people are in the midst of fire and water, and it is a great loss for me to lose any of them.

"What I did was also my duty as a citizen of the Tang Dynasty.

"Even if you die, although you have infinite regrets in your heart, you will never regret it.

After listening to Li Qiu's words, Li Shimin slapped the table a little harder and said, "Okay!"

And this is only a superficial performance, in Li Shimin's heart, he is definitely more emotional than his appearance.

He really didn't expect that Li Qiu could have such a loyal and courageous temperament and strong feelings for his family and country at such a young age.

This is his Li Shimin's son! He has the demeanor of his father!

And the eldest grandson Wuji also smiled and continued to ask: "Li Qiu, what you said is good, you have the style of my Tang Dynasty.

"I'm a little curious, what are the regrets in your heart?"

Li Qiu scratched his head, "That's too much."

"The boy is only so old, but he has a lot of things in his heart that he wants to do.

"For example, marry a daughter-in-law first..."

His words made Li Shimin and the eldest grandson Wuji laugh.

"Haha, you kid is honest with that. "

Then let me ask you again, now that I have unified the Tang Dynasty and pacified many heroes, gentlemen and ministers, why has it become an internal and external trouble, and the people are in dire straits?"

"My Datang is now indeed a virtuous and upright monarch, a scholar and a martial artist, and has the heritage of achieving great achievements through the ages.

"But it's all in the future, in the future.

"At the moment, the interior of Datang seems to be calm, but in fact, the waves are surging, and the old prince's department, the remaining party, and many scholars are all thinking about it, and they may not be of the same mind as my Datang.

"This is an internal worry.

"And externally, Jieli Khan has already unified the Turkic tribes, how can he miss this opportunity for internal turmoil in the Tang Dynasty?"

"With such a strong enemy, this is an external trouble.

"For the common people, from the tyrannical rule of Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty in the previous dynasty to the later powerful secession, the wars continued, the people were poor, and the families were ruined.

"The number of ordinary households has increased from 8.7 million households in the Sui Kaihuang Dynasty to more than 2 million today.

"And now that the war has not stopped, and the military service is no less than Sui, the population decline continues.

"In addition, there is a severe drought in Guanzhong this year, and people sell their children in exchange for food and clothing. "

A poem that quotes Qu Yuan, the long breath to hide the tears, mourn the difficulties of the people's livelihood!".

Listening to Li Qiu's words, the eldest grandson Wuji frowned and fell into silence.

And Li Shimin, who is the current emperor of the Tang Dynasty, sighed with endless sorrow.

Every word of Li Qiu seems to have hit the current difficult predicament of the Tang Dynasty, and touched the great sorrow in Li Shimin's heart hidden under the appearance of self-confidence.

"Alas!"

"Li Qiu, you're right, now my Tang people have a hard life, this is all me (temporarily changed my words, didn't say it)... It's all our fault.

"It seems that this matter of appeasing the people's livelihood cannot be delayed any longer. Li

Shimin's generation of Ming Jun was worried about the country and the people, and he sighed this sentence because of Li Qiu's words.

However, in this regard, Li Qiu shook his head unexpectedly.

"This adult, the kid thinks that the most critical thing in my Datang at present is not to appease the people, but to continue to fight hard.

Hearing this, the eldest grandson Wuji asked in surprise, "Li Qiu, weren't you still mourning the hardships of the people's livelihood just now, lamenting that the people are not making a living?"
