Nine hundred and twelve

When Suning came to the palace, it was already the afternoon of the next day, the day before because it was late, so Suning left Li Chengqian in the Su Mansion for dinner, he personally cooked a few dishes, a pot of wine, the two chatted while eating, and talked about some big and small things in the past three years, of course, as soon as the wine was drunk, anything could be said.

For example, as the eldest son of the crown prince, Li Xiang is the eldest son of the next emperor, as the eldest son, Li Xiang's identity and status are self-evident, Li Chengqian himself has not become an emperor, but the education of Li Xiang cannot be relaxed.

Suning is also facing a lot of pressure, from the pressure of the eldest son Su Qingren, for the eldest son, the son who inherited the family business, his talent and action are not necessarily more powerful than his father, but what he needs may be more calm and calm, if this person can't keep the country laid down by his father, then he is not worthy of being the successor of the head of the family.

But it's obviously a bit early to talk about these issues now, after all, Suning himself is only twenty-four years old, and Li Chengqian's age is still a little younger than Suning, but both of them are already fathers of children, from when they were children to now, ten years have passed like this, and the two talked about the first time they met and the intersection after that, and they always felt infinitely embarrassed.

Another glass of wine. Li Chengqian sighed: "My father is getting older and older, and his energy is not as good as before, since the death of Yigong, there are always some days every month, and my father will hand over all government affairs to me to deal with, for me, this is indeed a rare experience, but the difficulty is not ordinary, I am always trembling." Don't dare to make the slightest mistake. For fear that if you do something wrong, it will lead to a very strict incident.

Now that no one is competing with me for the throne, Qingque is reluctant to come to the East Palace to see me, and when I see it, I can see that I am handling government affairs. Then he turned around and ran. He said he was afraid to see the mountain of documents. In fact, why am I not afraid? The burden on my father's shoulders was too heavy for me to bear, but I had to bear it even if I didn't take it. I am the crown prince, my father's heir, and what my father can do, I must do.

And my father set me the goal is not to open up the territory, but to firmly grasp the territory that my father fell, it is easy to fight the country and defend the country, we all know that it is easier to fight the country, but it is indeed extremely difficult to defend the country, in the past three years, there have been three rebellions on the grassland, once on the peninsula, once in the Uzhou, and two or three times in the Western Regions, we only used a few months to attack these lands, an army, but to defend these lands, we have to spend more time.

Father is a great king, no one can deny that the emperor's grandfather is the founding emperor of the Tang Dynasty, but half of the earliest territory of the Tang Dynasty was beaten down by his father, and now the territory of the Tang Dynasty is more than three times the original, these territories are all under the leadership of his father, and the greatest credit is also his father's, really, Sanming, you really don't have to worry about the problem of high merit and shaking the master, you can't shake your father at all, your father is only one step away from being a holy monarch, really!

Sanming, come back, come back and help me, don't forget, my father also has a prince to read the name of the prince to you without taking it back, you can come to my East Palace, you can come to help me deal with government affairs anytime and anywhere, really, Sanming, I'm so tired by myself, these government affairs are just forcing me to go crazy, Xiang'er is not a good child, naughty tight, Sanming, I'm really tired......"

Li Chengqian babbled a lot, almost telling all the hardships and grievances he had suffered in the past three years, and he usually couldn't find anyone to talk to, but now he finally found Suning, who could talk about his pain without reservation...... In fact, he didn't say it, Suning also knew how his life was, every month when he was free, Zhao Chen would bring him a copy of the administrative measures and daily situation of the imperial court for a month, which was instructed by Li Erma, and Suning knew it.

This time Li Chengqian came, it is a signal, the tumultuous Qin Qiong's death and the dispute between Confucianism and law three years ago have gradually subsided, and the political struggle that has intensified has gradually transformed into an academic struggle, Li Ermajesty will not allow these people to involve the academic struggle in the political struggle and thus threaten the stability of his rule, Confucianism and Taoism, and now the three major academic sects of the Tang Dynasty are as strong as the three kingdoms of Wei, Shu and Wu, evenly matched, difficult to distinguish, respectively in charge of several departments, fighting each other, But they are also collaborating with each other.

Avoiding a group of harmony in the court is the emperor's power requirement, but avoiding the division of ministers is also the emperor's power requirement, how to grasp this degree, now the emperor of the Tang Dynasty Li Ermajesty Xià has a good grasp of it, but for Li Chengqian, this is just the entry-level difficulty, the dispute between Confucianism and law seems to be an academic dispute, in fact, Suning has long seen that the society ruled by man and the society ruled by law will not coexist for too long, and the main reason why he insists on supporting the Legalist to take charge of the criminal department is this.

In ancient China, there were political factions that advocated governing the country according to law rather than governing the country by people, but they were suppressed by the power of Confucianism, but the Legalist ideology has not been completely eliminated, but has been passed down to this day, and the strength of Legalism will inevitably produce irreconcilable contradictions with Confucianism based on "benevolence and righteousness". At least not the current Li Chengqian.

Suning has reason to believe that once Li Erma's majesty dies and Li Chengqian ascends the throne, the first thing he will have to face is the dispute between Confucianism and law.

Li Chengqian is already a qualified prince, a qualified prince of the country.

Li Ermaxi paid more attention to cultivating Li Chengqian's ability than he imagined. Pay more attention to whether Li Chengqian can become his qualified successor, but Suning hopes more that Li Erma can take the initiative to give Li Chengqian, rather than waiting for Li Ermaxi to ascend the throne after Li Erma's death, under the hereditary system of the throne, there is a situation that can avoid the bloody struggle for the throne, that is, the old emperor takes the initiative to give the throne to the new emperor, and supports him through the most difficult years.

Suning didn't know if he had considered which was more important, his own throne or the inheritance of the Tang Dynasty, in Li Erma's heart, but for now, Suning knew that Li Ermaxi would never give up the throne. He was in his forties. In modern times, when you are still a young man, it is the time when you are in the prime of life, and it is the time when you are suitable to do great things.

Suning decided to dedicate the revised Soviet version of "Zizhi Tongjian" to Li Erma. The ins and outs. Eight years. Suning dragged on for eight years, and the real complete version was completed four years ago, but Suning was unwilling to release this meaningful history book so early. In the past three years, he has personally written, and together with Cui Xiaoyi, he has studied word by word, pondered word by word, and revised word by word.

Some chapters have passed over and over again, some chapters have been changed more than a dozen times, and the magic machine is no longer usable, and it is difficult for Suning to copy the original Sima Guang's opinions, but this also brings a lot of his own ideas, he has been an official for ten years, and after ten years of tempering in the officialdom and battlefield of the Tang Dynasty, Suning's experience will not be inferior to Sima Guang.

Moreover, Suning also did a very bold thing, in the past, the history books were written by the new dynasty to record the old dynasty, Suning not only wrote about the former Sui, but also wrote about the second generation of Wude Zhenguan, from the chaos at the end of the Sui Dynasty, to the establishment of the Tang Dynasty by His Excellency Li Yuan, and then to the enthronement of Li Er, and then the era of ten years of great expansion, every battle, every battle of life and death, is his personal experience, so, he wrote very carefully.

Even the change of Xuanwu Gate, he did not shy away from it, of course, he did not decide to dedicate that chapter to Li Er Majesty now, but to wait for the right time, Suning had a hunch that when Li Er Majesty could face his ambition and cruelty and selfishness, he could calmly give up the throne and let the young and energetic Li Chengqian ascend the throne, and he watched with a smile Li Chengqian sit on the throne and take charge of the Tang Dynasty, and closed his eyes with confidence.

When Suning went to the palace, he entered the palace with more than a dozen carts, and Li Chengqian's face was extremely complicated, looking at the manuscript in his hand, biting his lip, without saying a word, sometimes looking at the dozen carts behind him, imagining the books written by Suning and his assistants, he felt a little dizzy and incredible......

This is indeed a bit incredible, eight years, eight years, doesn't that mean that Suning has been preparing this magnificent masterpiece since he was sixteen years old? From King Weilie of Zhou to Emperor Yang of Sui Dynasty, the history of more than 1,000 years, after the "Three Kingdoms", this real history book, a real literary masterpiece, enough to establish the status of Suning's generation of masters, is actually in front of his eyes.

He opened the Han scroll, the chapter about Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, not only for the great merits and hunting heroes and praise, but also for the harsh criticism and spicy satire of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in his later years, both the beautiful ode to Huo Quai's work in sealing the wolf, and the criticism of Huo Quzhi's perverse temperament, inconsiderate soldiers, and oppression of the good, mercilessly exposed the truest side of these people, and some remarks made Li Chengqian himself feel frightened.

But when he looked at Suning, Suning's face was indifferent, not at all like the appearance of an arrogant scribe who could write such spicy words, according to the ancients, the stronger the talent, the greater the temper, Suning can't see his temper at all from the surface and daily interactions, but he shows his temper in the article.

He denounced Liu Bang as a villain, despicable and shameless, only when he became an emperor did he become a villain, the so-called Great Wind Song was just a whim, he made up a broad-minded lie for himself, and soon he exposed himself, killed the heroes, and set a very bad precedent, which can not be said to be hypocritical, and also bluntly said that Xiang Yu was reckless and short-sighted, brutal and murderous, rigid and self-serving, and no one in his eyes, and bluntly said that Liu Bang succeeded because he was more suitable to be the emperor than Xiang Yu, and neither of them was a good person.

Li Chengqian hurriedly covered the chapter he saw, and said to Suning very worriedly: "Sanming, although this is talking about Xiang Yu and Liu Bang, but the most important thing in this world is people who are good at reversing black and white, your words are too sharp, in case the original intention is tampered with by someone with a heart, how can you be good?" ”

Suning took the Han scroll in Li Chengqian's hand and smiled: "I just wrote my thoughts, my opinions, my words, Your Majesty has listened too much, if you can't accept this kind of words, how can you talk about Shengjun?" Datang is punished for his words? Want to learn from the First Emperor's book burning pit Suning? Hahahaha! If so, let me be an arrogant idiot! (To be continued......)
