Goguryeo is a unified regime, whether it is from the perspective of unified dispatch or geographical situation, it is very different from the countries of the Western Regions, which is also the problem that Fang Xuanling and others are worried about, Goguryeo, which has a standing army of 600,000 people, and the Western Regions, which has only a few tens of thousands of people, is strong or weak.

But even this could not change Li Er's belief in the Eastern Expedition, and the previous national letter with the words "No Talks" has always been on his desk, always reminding him of Goguryeo's hatefulness and rudeness, and at the same time reminding him not to relax and slack off.

"Your Majesty, the matter of the personal conquest of Goguryeo, the minister thinks that it still needs to be seriously considered, and he can't be rash!" Wei Zheng is not a person who is used to the emperor's faults, and directly points out Li Er's true intentions.

The clear distinction between spirit and deeds refers to the old man's jealousy of Li Chengqian's exploits in laying down most of the Western Regions, and his behavior of launching an eastward crusade when the time is not ripe.

Li Chengqian silently watched the reactions of several bigwigs, and admired Lao Wei Na in his heart.

This kind of words that directly poke the emperor's heart is not something that anyone dares to say, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, and Changsun Wuji, no matter who they are, have a much closer relationship with Li Er than he Wei Heizi, but this kind of thing does not dare to say it anyway, and only Wei Heizi, who is stupid and bold, has such courage.

Of course, Lao Wei, who poked Li Er's heart, actually didn't want to do it, it was like standing on the edge of a cliff and dancing, and a bad one would end up being shattered.

But Lao Wei has no choice, who let him leave an impression on Li Er at the beginning is an upright image of a minister, if he comes to shoot Lao Li's ass now, if he doesn't shoot it well, he will shoot himself into it, it is better to keep being upright like this, so that Li Er has no way to come to him.

"Do you think I'm acting rashly?" Li Er was not affected by Wei Heizi's accusations, because he was used to it, and what he needed to know now was the true thoughts of these courtiers he relied on.

"Your Majesty, now is indeed not the best time to conquer Goguryeo, it's not that we have beaten him, but even if it is defeated, there is no way to govern it, and in the end it can only cheapen Silla and Baekje." Fang Xuanling paused and continued: "Your Majesty, we only have a population of several million households in the Tang Dynasty, and now the Hetao region and the Western Regions need to be developed, and a lot of manpower and resources have been invested, where is there anyone to manage Goguryeo?" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, we can't consume national strength, just to retrieve the bones of the soldiers of the previous dynasty, that would be completely more than worth the loss, there is no need at all, it is far better to wait for the Hetao region and the Western Regions to be stable in the future, and then completely take Goguryeo directly." Du Ruhui also took the opportunity to speak on the side, and it was obvious that he did not approve of going to Goguryeo now.

However, at this time, these statements were the real difficulties that needed to be faced in the conquest of Goguryeo, and it was not an argument about whether or not they could be defeated, as the court said.

"Cheng Qian, what do you say?" Li Er seemed to be determined to conquer Goguryeo, no matter how hard Fang and Du said, they were still unmoved, but turned their attention to Li Chengqian.

"Father, the sons think that Goguryeo can be developed by land exchange, but the question now is what to do with those locals of Goguryeo, they are not so honest, and how to solve the problem of getting along with the people of the Tang Dynasty is the key." Li Chengqian remembered that he didn't seem to know which book he had read about land exchange, so he naturally said it.

"Land exchange? Does His Highness mean to move people into Liaodong? Fang Xuanling understood Li Chengqian's meaning almost instantly, and asked repeatedly.

No one who can go to the old man's study to participate in the meeting is a fool, and no one will react slower than others.

So in just a moment, more than ten pairs of eyes were all staring at Li Chengqian's body.

"Yes, if you move people into Liaodong, we can use a ratio of one to two or one to three to replace the land, twenty acres of Datang's land can be exchanged for sixty acres of Liaodong's land, and we will also give farming cattle, seeds and other things, if we can, we can also be exempted from taxes for a few years, so it is estimated that many people will move to Liaodong." Li Chengqian said slowly, thinking while talking, and slowly sorted out a line of thought.

The old man nodded approvingly to Li Chengqian, and was very satisfied with his move of releasing this bastard boy from Zongzheng Temple: "Yes, this method is good, it seems that I still have some knowledge." Xuan Ling, Keming, you should discuss the details of this issue carefully, and hand me a fold in a few days. ”

Dare to love Lao Li's praise is not because Li Chengqian's idea is good, but because he praises his own good idea, if he didn't release him himself, how could this kid have the opportunity to come up with such a good way.

And what can Li Chengqian say? The old man has already said this, he can't run out to dismantle the old man's platform, it is not his own idea that it is good, he can only hope that justice is in the hearts of the people, and hope that the eldest grandson Wuji and others can have a fair evaluation in their hearts.

But facts have proved that Li Chengqian obviously thinks too much, and after he has a solution to the problem, a group of old men will care about him as a young man, and they have long gotten together to study the feasibility of this plan, and no one will pay attention to him anymore.

After being kicked out of the old man's study very hurt, Li Chengqian once again realized what it meant to be 'abandoned', and then he wandered to his mother's residence, first, to see his mother, whom he had not seen for a long time, and second, to find some comfort.

"Qian'er, why didn't you go to your father's place to discuss matters, but ran to the palace?" After seeing the salute and saying hello, Li Chengqian was injured by the eldest grandson before he could speak.

"The queen mother, the father and the emperor are discussing military affairs, where is there room for the ministers to intervene, instead of making trouble there, it is better to come to the queen mother to do their filial piety." Li Chengqian first picked up the little princess Li Mingda, who was walking and staggering, that is, Princess Jinyang, who was nicknamed the son-in-law, and said very unwillingly.

"You were kicked out, right?" Empress Eldest Sun pursed her lips and smiled, although her hand poked a finger on Li Chengqian's head: "Don't pinch your sister's face, she will drool in the future!" ”

"Oh!" Li Chengqian agreed, and let go of the hand that was pinching his son's pink little face.

"Brother, brother, ......" A series of "brother" words were spit out like a machine gun by the son, and it was obvious that this little girl couldn't control her tongue well.

Looking at the cute appearance of the little girl, Li Chengqian couldn't help pinching her little face with baby fat again, and then was slapped on the back of the neck by the eldest grandson: "If you like a child, give birth to one yourself, don't play with your sister here." ”
