Chapter Ninety-Six: A Brief Discussion of the Emperor (II)
Li Zhi: Great, why did you even hit me, what was wrong with me?
Li Er: Do you know Duan Zhixuan?
Li Zhi: Auxiliary general? Back then, you praised him as Zhou Yafu in the world.
Li Er: That kid was a street tyrant in Taiyuan at the beginning, and as soon as he came, he beat up all the evil gangsters on the ground, relying on people and horses, and walked sideways in Taiyuan all day long.
Li Zhi: What happened later?
Li Er: Later, I made an appointment with him, and he followed me.
Li Zhi: ......
Li Er: Do you know Zheng Rentai?
Li Zhi: General Zuo Tunwei? You know, he followed you to defeat Goguryeo, and he was very heroic.
Li Er: Back then, the kid had nothing to do, and he looked down on his father's eight-rank official, so he dangled around the street with a sword all day long, saying something like "I want to be Ji Bu's man!" ”
Li Zhi: What happened later?
Li Er: Later, when I said hello, he followed me.
Li Zhi: ......
Li Er: Do you know Gongsun Wuda?
Li Zhi: Do you mean the prince of Donglai County? A few days ago, I heard Changshi say that when the Turks were fighting, the imperial army was still gathering, and there was a Turkic army of thousands of horsemen who planned to take advantage of Suzhou and cross Tuyuhun in the south. At that time, General Gongsun of Suzhou led only 2,000 soldiers and horses from the headquarters to attack halfway across the Zhangye River and annihilated the Turks.
Li Er: At the end of the Sui Dynasty, there was a great chaos, and there were thieves everywhere, once Gongsun Wuda was walking on the road, and he encountered a group of thieves blocking the road and robbing him, ripping off his money and clothes, and asking for his leather boots. Gongsun Wuda raised his feet to let them take off, and as soon as the thief squatted down, Gongsun Wuda pressed the person to the ground and beat the head violently, directly beating the thief to death.
Li Zhi: I see...... And then he followed you, right?
Li Er: Do you know Qiu Xinggong?
Li Zhi: I know, it's the black devil who eats the black devil.
Li Er: Before we entered the customs, several groups of thieves in the customs occupied the mountain as kings. At that time, Xinggong and they were all gathering troops in Yiwu, and there happened to be a group of former Sui manu who ran out of Pingliang herdsman, and Qiu Xinggong knew about it, and decided to accept this batch of heaven-sent BMWs, so he found a day to make an appointment with someone, and brought hundreds of followers with good wine and meat on their backs, and came to the base camp of the slaves.
Li Zhi: What happened later?
Li Er: With one knife, the head of the opposite chief will be sliced off.
Li Zhi: ......
Li Er: Pheasant slave!
Li Zhi: Great, what's the matter?
Li Er: You're eighteen this year, aren't you?
Li Zhi: yes.
Li Er: It's time to go to the underworld to experience experience.
Li Zhi: Great!
Li Er: When I was your age......
Rich: Great!!
Li Er: Huh?
Li Zhi: Baa~~~
……
Well, that's all joke.
Li Zhi is indeed inferior to Li Shimin.
Because Li Shimin is the founder of the first generation, he started from scratch and dominated the group.
And Li Zhi is standing on the legacy left to him by Li Shimin.
As far as the second generation of the empire is concerned, Li Zhi is extremely good.
"Ami."
Li Zhi's voice interrupted Su Dawei's heart.
He hurriedly crossed his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I don't know ......"
"On this book, there is a word with the inscription of Taizong."
Li Zhi did not answer, but turned the pages of the book? muttered: "Take the ancient as a mirror? It can be known that there is a rise and fall. ”
Su Dawei's body shook slightly, had he heard this? But in the history books of later generations.
I don't know what Li Zhi meant by this at this time.
You don't say things that don't make sense, do you?
What is being hinted at?
"Sit down."
Li Zhi gestured to Su Dawei? He himself, under the service of the eunuchs, found a bearded stool? After several layers of cushioning, he sat down.
See Li Zhi sitting? Su Dawei is on a stool? Sit down gently.
Only sat on half an ass.
"Your Majesty is looking for Ami, I don't know what's the matter?"
"Lately, you've been doing nice."
Li Zhi patted the armrest: "Especially for me and the prince to find Sun Simiao, I must reward you generously." ”
Su Dawei hurriedly said: "This is all within the minister's duty? Don't dare to ask for a reward. ”
"I heard that Wang Xuance has looked for you?"
"Yes." Su Dawei was shocked.
I didn't expect Wang Xuance to come to the door? Li Zhi knew so quickly.
It seems that Li Zhi's current mastery of the information of the Ducha Temple is more efficient than he imagined.
This is a bit like the feeling that the Ming Emperor of the later generations supervised the hundred officials in the palm of his hand.
Fortunately, he and Wang Xuance didn't talk about any taboo words, so they were not afraid.
"Did Wang Xuance mention Master Xuanzang's "Records of the Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty"?"
"Yes."
"What did you say?"
He said......"
Su Dawei secretly squirmed his Adam's apple and settled down: "He said that the mage traveled west to more than 100 countries, and many of them have been deserted?" Many of those small countries still want to restore their country before they are destroyed? So bury the treasure in the ground for the restoration of the kingdom.
Also say Master Xuanzang's book? There may be clues hidden, because the mage visited those countries one by one. ”
"Oh? How do you feel after hearing this? ”
Li Zhi asked quietly.
Su Dawei was sweating through the back of his clothes.
Are he sure? What if you just said it yourself? If there is a slight concealment or untruth, Li Zhiding will change his face.
Is this Li Zhi's "test" for himself?
"The minister is not interested in money."
Su Dawei raised his head and looked at Li Zhi boldly, and met Li Zhi's scrutinizing gaze: "The minister asked himself that the business was not bad, and the money he made was enough to live a good life, not to mention that as the doctor of the San Dynasty said, the minister is a Tang dynasty and a courtier of the Tang Dynasty, so why should he covet the Hu people's things." ”
Li Zhi didn't speak immediately, but pondered for a moment and nodded slightly: "Yes, Wang Xuance is not confused. ”
Seeing that Su Dawei was a little nervous, Li Zhi continued: "The Legend of the Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty was originally in your hands? You send him into the palace. ”
"This ......"
"Don't worry, you don't care, how can I care about those things, since you promised Master Xuanzang to hand over the book to the descendants of the lord of Gaochang, I also have the beauty of an adult, just hand it over to the palace, review it, remove some unnecessary words, and return it to you."
It turned out to be a review, removing words that might reveal treasure information.
Su Dawei couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and at the same time was glad that he was not greedy for these treasures.
He stood up, crossed his hands at Li Zhi and said, "I'll go back and get the book now." ”
"Sit down, there's no hurry."
On Li Zhi's round face, a meaningful color appeared: "I want to talk to you for a while." ”
"Yes."
Su Dawei sat down again at Li Zhi's signal.
There were waves in my heart, and I didn't know what Li Zhi would say to him.
However, Li Zhi did not speak quickly, but flipped through the book "Brief Treatise on the Emperor" in his hand.
The eunuch and the attendant next to him lit incense and cooked tea and soup to serve.
Li Zhi took a sip and motioned to Su Dawei for a lamp.
Only then did he say unhurriedly: "Do you know Yu Shinan? ”
"I don't know."
"Yu Shinan Chu Shi Nan Chen, after Chen's death into the Jin King Yang Guang Domain, Sui Daye served as the secretary Lang, living houser, after the Jiangdu mutiny, Yu Shinan from the Xia King Dou Jiande, came to the emperor's side, served as one of the eighteen bachelors of the Qin Palace, Zhenguan and the secretary supervisor."
Su Dawei listened again and again.
I don't know much else, but one of the eighteen bachelors of the Qin Palace, the secretary and supervisor, he understands these.
It is equivalent to the leader of the cultural circle of the Tang Dynasty.
"This "Brief Treatise on the Emperor" is a book written by Yu Shinan when he was in the palace of the Qin Dynasty to examine the gains and losses of the emperors of the past dynasties."
According to the research of later historians, "The Brief Treatise on the Emperor" is a general historical work written by Yu Shinan when he was in the palace of the Qin Dynasty.
It is chronologically ordered, centered on the emperor, and consists of the questions of "Mr." and "Childe".
The pattern is like the art of war book "Tang Li Asks Right".
And Li Shimin, the king of Qin, ordered Yu Shinan to write this book, the purpose of which is, of course, to "discuss the ancient and modern, to discuss the gains and losses of the ancient emperors, and to trace the way of the rise and fall of the ancients", looking for a good way to govern the world and the country.
To put it bluntly, it is how to be an emperor, how to improve the art of the emperor, and the level of governance.
Through the actions of emperors from ancient times to the present, in the right way, analyze the thinking models of those emperors to make decisions, analyze the pros and cons, and improve their thinking level.
Su Dawei thought about it in his mind.
It's a pity that the book "A Brief Treatise on the Emperor" is not in the list of books he has read in his previous life, and he only has a vague impression of this book, and he doesn't know what is written in it.
The aroma of dragon incense and musk rises from the corner of the temple.
Thin smoke like a curtain.
Li Zhi picked up the teacup, took a sip, and moistened his throat.
It is probably Sun Simiao's work today, at this time he is in a good mood, and his spirit is a little more vigorous than usual.
At this time, a rare trace of ruddy appeared on the round face.
He cleared his throat a little and said, "Do you know what the emperor said to me when he passed this book to me?" ”
"Uh, with the ancient as a mirror, can you know the rise and fall?"
Su Dawei asked tentatively.
Li Zhi glanced at him with some unpleasantness.
Su Dawei hurriedly changed his words: "Water can carry a boat, can it also capsize a boat?" ”
Li Zhi: "......"
He didn't speak, but his face was clearly written: I hate people who talk a lot.
Su Dawei was busy shutting up.
The Emperor of Heaven asks questions, not for you to answer.
It's just to throw a word around.
Li Zhi glanced at Su Dawei with a little dissatisfaction, and then continued: "You know, what did I think of when I read this book? ”
Su Dawei shook his head and did not speak.
Li Zhi didn't sell it, sighed quietly, patted the book on the table, and said softly: "The situation of Taizong back then was not easy...... Standing in the newly established Tang Dynasty, looking forward, how can there be a prince who succeeds smoothly, and how can there be a country that can sit steadily. ”
"Huh?"
"Emperor Jin Hui of the Eight Kings Rebellion after eight years on the throne? Zhou Tianyuan, who succeeded to the throne for three years? Liu Yifu, who was 'jointly impeached and stepped down' by four ministers who succeeded to the throne for two years?
Why is it that in the past two hundred years, all the people who have sat in that position, the supreme emperor, and those who can get a good death, can count them with one hand in the north and one hand in the south.
And even if these emperors died well, most of them were not 'good beginnings', and before they took the throne, they either punished the ministers, or set off a 'unbearable' change, or died on the road all year round.
If you count the fact that there are no problems with the heirs after death, there is not a single dynasty that has been able to hold on for two hundred years. ”
Stroking "A Brief Treatise on the Emperor", Li Zhi looked at Su Dawei sideways and asked softly: "Su Dawei, what do you think, why is this?" ”
At this moment, Su Dawei only felt that his hair was upside down, and his back was soaked with cold sweat.
