Chapter 745: Moving the Capital?

"Your Majesty, Taiwan and Datang face each other across the sea, only a few hundred miles apart, although now my Daqi navy is strong, but Datang's naval development in recent years is still very rapid, has formed a threat to our Taiwan, in case the situation of the two countries changes in the future, our Daqi capital will be directly exposed to the Tang Navy's muzzle, so the ministers think that it is time to consider moving the capital!" Seeing that Li Su was silent for a long time, Liu Renliang finally couldn't help but speak anymore.

This time, Liu Renliang came to see Li Su, mainly for the purpose of moving the capital. Speaking of which, this matter has been arguing in Daqi's political opinion for many years, Taiwan is very good in all aspects, but there is one biggest shortcoming, that is, it is too close to the Tang Dynasty, when Li Shimin was in power before, it was impossible for the two countries to clash, so there was no problem, but now with the expansion of the Tang Navy, Taiwan, which is close to the Tang Dynasty, has suddenly become unsafe, so as early as a few years ago, someone has proposed to move the capital.

Hearing Liu Renliang's words, Li Su finally raised his head, but his gaze only paused on Liu Renliang's face, and then looked at Wang An next to him and asked, "Taifu, do you think it is appropriate to move the capital now?" ”

Although Wang An is old, his brain is not confused, just now he was sitting there and had been thinking about this matter, and now when he heard Li Su ask himself, he immediately owed and said: "Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that Liu Xiang is reasonable, our Great Qi dominates the Pacific Ocean, the Americas, Australia, and even the South Seas and other places, which are more suitable than Taiwan to be the capital of Great Qi, so the old minister feels that it is time to move the capital!" ”

Hearing Wang An's words, Li Su also sighed in his heart, for the land of Taiwan. Whether it is from the feelings of later generations, or as the first base for his overseas expansion. He was full of affection for this place, but now it was as the situation developed. Daqi has occupied the Americas, Australia, Nanyang and other places, and from the perspective of national territory, Taiwan seems to be a little remote, and even to a serious extent, it has affected Daqi's domination of the Americas, Australia and other regions. In addition, the rise of the Datang Navy has made Taiwan's security a problem, and now the time has come for us to move.

Thinking of this, Li Su was also a little helpless in his heart, speaking of which, the overall relationship between Datang and Daqi is not bad now. Although there is some friction at sea, it does not affect the overall situation, at least now he and Li Zhi's brotherly relationship is still very close. But again, there is no eternal friendship between countries, only eternal interests. When the two countries get along, they must consider the worst, so the capital of Daqi must not be placed under the guns of the Tang Navy.

"Looks like it's time to implement the final plan!" Li Su finally suddenly sighed and said to himself, when Li Shimin died, he had already thought of a way to solve the contradictions between the four countries. It's just that the time was not ripe at that time, so he waited for so many years.

Hearing Li Su's words, Wang An's half-closed eyes suddenly opened, and an astonishing brilliance flashed in his eyes. Even the face that has always been calm shows a bit of excitement. In contrast, Liu Renliang didn't understand the meaning of Li Su's words, and looked at Li Su and Wang An in confusion for a while.

Li Xuan muttered to himself. Turning his head to Liu Renliang, he suddenly smiled and said, "Okay, I agreed to move the capital." But what did the courtiers propose for the choice of the capital? ”

Although Liu Renliang didn't understand the meaning of Li Su's previous sentence. But now that he heard Li Su agree, he was also in good spirits at the moment, and took a step forward again: "Your Majesty, the ministers have drawn up several candidates for the capital, including two in Nanyang, namely Manila and Coconut City, and Nanao City and Moli City in Australia, and there are also people who propose to build a new capital in the Americas, but most of the courtiers think that the Americas are too far away from Nanyang and Australia, and the degree of development is not high, so it is best to choose the new capital in Nanyang and Australia!" ”

"Very good, these cities are good, and they all have a certain foundation, and they can save a lot of manpower and material resources to transform as the capital!" Li Su nodded after hearing this, judging from the territory of Daqi and the economy and civilization of various places, Nanyang and Australia are indeed more suitable for setting up capitals.

But then Li Su said again: "It's just that the matter of moving the capital is related to the stability of Jiangshan Sheji, as well as the rule of various places in the future, so it is absolutely not sloppy, so help Liu Xiang, you choose a few people who have believed, and let them set up a 'relocation of the capital', go to those selected cities to take a walk, and see what the conditions in the city are in all aspects?" When they come back, let's choose a city to be the capital based on their report! ”

"This ......" Liu Renliang glanced up at Li Su with some doubts, although the performance of His Majesty the Emperor in front of him looked normal, but for some reason, he always had a feeling of being perfunctory by Li Su, but it was a pity that Liu Renliang couldn't produce evidence at all, and finally had to agree, "Obey the order, the minister will do it!" ”

After Liu Renliang retreated, Wang An, who had been sitting, suddenly stood up and said to Li Su excitedly: "Your Majesty, have you really decided to implement that plan?" ”

Li Su smiled and nodded: "I have been waiting for this opportunity back then, and now it is finally time, otherwise if the four countries are allowed to develop like this, I am afraid that in the end, our brothers will turn against each other, and my father and his old man will be very sad in the spirit of the sky!" ”

That night, Li Su wrote a letter to Li Ke, Li Yun and Li Zhen respectively, and there was no other content in the letter, just telling them that he had something extremely important to meet with them, and the location was still in Chang'an, Datang, and Li Su sent the letter out, and then he went on the road alone, except for telling Wen Xin in advance, other people didn't know his itinerary at all.

Li Su traveled in casual clothes this time, and except for a few loyal guards, there was no one else to follow. And this time he did not take his own 'Qihuang' steamship, but like ordinary people, he bought a ticket for a passenger ship at the ship shop in Keelung Port, and then boarded a steam passenger ship called 'Ping'an', which would arrive in Dengzhou, and then Li Su changed ships there, and arrived at the Yellow River after entering the Bohai Sea.

Because he was worried that he would be recognized, Li Su put on makeup for himself, mainly because he cut his hair into a short haircut. It looks similar to the hairstyle of later generations. Speaking of which, with the change of these concepts, more and more people feel that long hair is too difficult to manage. Especially those who live in hot areas, plus those who are driven by the seafarers. So bald heads and short hair began to become popular all over Daqi, and at least half of the ten men cut off their long hair.

Although Li Su also thinks that short hair is much easier to take care of than long hair, but hair is a part of the body, the traditional concept is that cutting hair is to hurt one's body, which is also an unfilial act, and short hair does not conform to the aesthetics of ordinary Han people, so as a model in the world, he can only keep long hair.

This time, Li Su just didn't want others to recognize him. So he simply cut his hair ruthlessly, and changed the style of his beard again, so that the whole person seemed to have changed at once, and unless he was particularly familiar with him, he would not be recognizable at all.

After cutting the familiar short hair, Li Su felt that his whole person was suddenly renewed, the top of his head was much more relaxed, and his walking steps were also brisk. He even deliberately walked around the deck of the Ping An a few times, and found that there were not many passengers with short hair on the ship, and his current appearance was not at all inconspicuous.

Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, Li Su finally put his mind at ease. Then he began to look at the steamship he was on. The Ping An is a passenger ship under the name of Yifan Shipping, and it is also a new ship that has just been launched this year, and the performance of the ship is very reliable. Li Su had already heard Yifan talk about this, which was one of the reasons why he chose this boat.

Speaking of sailing. This is the world's first ship to use a steamboat, which was co-founded by Li Su and Zhao Yifan. After so many years of development, Yifan shipping has become the largest shipping line in Daqi, and almost every route has a sailing ship, which even Li Su did not expect.

It is worth mentioning that a few years ago, Yifan suddenly gave birth to a baby boy, and the father of the child was unknown, which caused many people to speculate. At this moment, everyone immediately shut up, and occasionally when they talked about it privately with their friends, they would involuntarily glance in the direction of the palace.

Just when Li Su was leaning his back against the side of the boat and thinking about his thoughts, suddenly there was a scream of children not far away, and then he felt a black overhead, and a ball the size of a human head flew towards his head, but before the ball fell on his head, a young burly guard next to him immediately stepped forward and stretched out a big hand like a fan to grab the ball at once.

It was only then that Li Su realized that on the deck not far in front of him, a group of children were looking at the ball in the hands of the guards in front of him in amazement, and the scream just now was made by them. It seems that these children accidentally kicked the ball away just now, and when they were about to hit Li Su, they didn't expect to be grabbed by someone, which made them show such a shocked expression.

Li Su looked at the group of lovely children in front of him, and couldn't help but think of the children in the family, speaking of which Chou Chou and Li Qi and a few other older ones have been married, among which Chou Chou married Li Yexu's son, the other party's name is Li Zhongxin, he has been bullied by Chou Chou since he was a child, and then he didn't know what was going on, the two young people had feelings, so Li Su was in charge, and the two of them were perfect, but when he married his daughter, Li Su felt like his most precious treasure was stolen, and it was even more uncomfortable than watching his son get married.

As for Li Qi, Li Mian and others, they all married the daughters of nobles, and they also had their own children, so that Li Su is now a grandfather.

Thinking of the children at home, Li Su couldn't help but be a little stunned, but the little guys in front of him couldn't wait, and immediately shouted: "Uncle, can you please throw the ball over?" ”

Hearing the screams of the children, Li Su came to his senses, and immediately agreed with a smile and took the ball from the hands of the guards next to him, but at this time he also had fun, and he hadn't played football for many years.

Therefore, I saw Li Su let go of the football, and then kicked it out, and his footwork was really comparable to the national football team of later generations, the ball crossed a light drifting arc in the air, and then flew over the deck with great accuracy, and fell into the sea on the other side, as a result, a few of those children saw that their ball was not, and all of them looked at Li Su with aggrieved eyes, and finally cried out with a 'wow~'!
