Chapter 913 Great nephew, remember to keep it
Jia Ping'an has always felt that Lu Dongzan is a capable minister, a rare capable minister.
Tubo is now in good weather and can support a huge population and army. After the expansion of national power, the first thing to do is to look around to see who can bite.
It seems that there are only a few directions to look at, and they will go to Tianzhu along the way, but that side is like a chicken rib to Tubo. However, Lu Dongzan was ambitious and wanted to make Tubo the most powerful country in the world, so his goal was naturally aimed at Datang.
From the marriage when Emperor Taizong was there, to the domineering after Emperor Taizong left, step by step, Tubo continued to strengthen its own strength, waiting for the best opportunity to make a move.
The younger brother Li Zhi ascended the throne, and Tubo exploded.
It's embarrassing for such a weak emperor to come to power, but he is also assisted by Changsun Wuji and others.
Changsun Wuji and others have followed the late emperor and experienced countless big scenes. If they act now, plus the bonus of those veterans who can lead the army, Datang will surely win.
So Tubo chose forbearance.
Unexpectedly, Zanpu followed his father-in-law.
Lu Dongzan took advantage of the trend and became a powerful minister, taking control of Tubo.
"...Afterwards, Lu Dongzan tried out in Tuyuhun, and was beaten back by Datang. From secret spies fanning the flames to attacking with an army of 100,000, Lu Dongzan was very cautious. Where did the caution come from? I think it came from Datang's achievements. "
Jia Pingan talked eloquently, and the monarchs and ministers were all looking at him.
To this day, Li Ji, Cheng Zhijie and others have retreated to the second line. Among the new generation of generals, there are still very few handsome talents who can stand on their own.
"After His Majesty ascended the throne, Datang hibernated for a while, and then beat up Turks and Goryeo. Every battle made potential opponents tremble. How could Lu Dongzan be careless when he saw such a great Tang?"
"What do you think about the future of Datang and Tubo?"
Li Zhi was very pleased.
"This is such an important matter, the minister said..." Jia Pingan looked at the old men, with a face of shame, "I dare not speak nonsense."
Cheng Zhijie felt his hands itchy.
"Say it directly." Xu Jingzong felt that the little brother was outstanding today, so he looked at Li Yifu with provocative eyes.
You cruel official, you tried your best to flatter His Majesty, but has His Majesty ever looked at you more? Look at Xiao Jia... Are you ashamed?
Li Yifu's eyes were slightly cold, but there was a familiar smile on his mouth.
Old dog!
When Jia Pingan was not eye-catching, how did Xu Jingzong dare to provoke him like this.
The situation is gradually changing, moving in a direction that is not conducive to him... The more Jia Pingan is valued by the empress, the more dangerous he is.
"Your Majesty, I think that the future war between the Tang Dynasty and Tubo will last for a long time. The Tubo people are condescending, and it is impossible for the Tang Dynasty to send a large army to rush to Luoxi City. The only way is... to continuously weaken them and use some small means."
"What trick?" Cheng Zhijie stared at him and asked.
Li Yifu chuckled.
It’s just scaremongering.
Cheng Zhijie looked at him suddenly, his old eyes widened, and he shouted, "Do you know how to attack?"
Li Yifu was silent.
He knows a lot about knitting. If he pretended to understand, Cheng Zhijie would be able to criticize him right away.
"We'll discuss the matter of attacking, do you have any suggestions?"
Li Yifu was silent.
What advice does he have?
Write an article or impeach someone.
Cheng Zhijie said angrily: "Then why are you laughing?"
Li Yifu was silent, but the veins on his forehead were throbbing.
Old dog!
He narrowed his eyes slightly, but he knew that he was too complacent just now out of habit.
Jia Pingan continued: "The so-called small means are secret spies, and now the secret spies of Baiqi and the Ministry of War are gradually taking root in Tubo..."
"Secret spies can make Tibet internally chaotic?"
Jia Pingan smiled and said: "The secret spy has learned the means of subverting a country before leaving the army."
The lighthouse country of the later generations is best at such things, with various means, overt and covert, and I don’t know how many regimes have been subverted.
"Why do secret agents learn this?"
The monarchs and ministers stared at Jia Pingan.
"Since they are secret spies, they naturally have to learn all kinds of methods. For example, when they attacked Pyongyang, the secret spies in the city led those men to do it, arson and assassination are omnipotent. This is a subversive method... "
Ren Yaxiang was puzzled and said, "Is there any other way?"
"Yes." Jia Pingan said: "Create rumors, create panic... For example, there are many dignitaries and senior officials in Tubo Kingdom who hope to have peace and recuperate. Datang should take the initiative to contact these dignitaries and dignitaries to gain their favor..."
"How to get it?"
Xu Jingzong couldn't help asking.
Jia Pingan smiled and said: "Tell them that Datang hopes for peace. Datang has no ambitions for Tubo, and it is impossible to have any ambitions. It is too high to be attacked by Datang. But Tubo is eyeing Datang, so Datang Tang had no choice but to be highly vigilant against Tubo, looking for opportunities to weaken Tubo. Who caused all this?"
The later generations of Lighthouse are thieves who play such tricks, starting from the internal division of the opponent, and then using these people to disrupt the opponent's situation...
"It's the Ludongzan family." Jia Pingan looked sincere, "The goal of this powerful family is to change the dynasty. For this reason, he must win a major victory to win supreme prestige, and this victory... is to completely defeat Datang."
Li Ji said quietly: "In this way, those powerful and high-ranking officials will become the opponents of the Ludongzan family. They will argue in the court and the opposition, and will stumbling each other...Continuous internal fighting...It consumes the national power of Tubo, making it impossible for them to form a joint force, and even... Tubo is in chaos and torn apart."
Such means...
Master Xu Yu was terrified, "If these methods are used in the Tang Dynasty, they will be tarsal maggots. Your Majesty, I suggest that these methods should not be given to outsiders. Duke Jia, if you give these methods to outsiders, the old man will be regarded as a transformation. I want to kill you because of Li Gui!"
The old man's beard and hair were frowned, and he was obviously taken aback by such methods.
Ren Yaxiang smiled wryly and said, "Where did Mr. Jia come from with such means?"
Of course it is the later generations...
Jia Pingan smiled and said: "Back then, the schools of thought were brilliant, and that's what the so-called political strategists did."
The strategists of the past traveled all over the world, stirring up the world with their mouths... With the rise of Confucianism, all these things were wiped out. There can only be one voice in the world: Confucianism!
"All schools of thought..." Li Zhi said leisurely, "It's a pity."
Several people changed color slightly upon hearing this.
The emperor now cares less about Confucianism.
Going out later, Cheng Zhijie patted Jia Ping'an's shoulder, ignored his bitter face, and laughed loudly: "Sure enough, he is a promising boy. The old man was a step too late, and the old thief Liang Jianfang pulled you over. But The old man has something..."
Jia Ping'an said casually, "Please tell me, Mr. Cheng."
"There are some worthless children and grandchildren in my family. When I turn around, I choose one person to go. I will treat him as dead. If I can't learn the essence of the new learning...Xiao Jia will beat him to death for the old man."
Jia Pingan smiled wryly: "I don't accept disciples here... Lu Gong, it's not because of me... You know my temperament, and I'm the most idle one. If you ask me to teach any disciples, it will be a mistake... How about it, send it to me. Go do the math."
Before Cheng Zhijie raised his fist, Jia Pingan decisively changed his words.
"There is also the old man!"
"The old man's grandson is good, talented..."
"Xiao Jia, don't favor one person over another."
A group of people overwhelmed Jia Ping'an.
"Mr. Lu...help me."
Cheng Zhijie laughed and dragged Jia Pingan out.
The name Lu Gong is a bit weird!
Li Ji felt a little uncomfortable.
"The British prince is not tempted?"
Master Xu Yu felt that Li Ji really had the demeanor of a famous general as immovable as a mountain.
"Li Jingye and Xiao Jia are like brothers, why does he care?"
Everyone couldn't help laughing.
But thinking that his grandson didn't follow Jia Ping'an at all, Li Ji couldn't help feeling angry.
Jia Pingan said: "It's easy to send your children, but they need to be tested."
"Test?" Cheng Zhijie was angry, "I don't even need a test for my grandson to go to the Imperial College..."
Liang Jianfang said coldly: "What did your grandson learn in the Imperial Academy?"
Cheng Zhijie immediately became depressed, "Forget it, what are you going to test?"
"Literacy is a must, and the other is some simple questions."
A dude who doesn’t know anything, what will he learn when he enters mathematics? Learn to pick up girls, learn to fight?
Cheng Zhijie's complexion changed slightly. It seemed that the candidate he had thought of was no longer available.
"But you want to write poems and articles?"
Jia Pingan shook his head, "We don't need these for arithmetic."
Writing poems goes to the literature department, and articles also go to the literature department...Damn it, the schools in Datang are all liberal arts, no, only one subject: literature. Articles and poems, plus analysis and memorization of the words of the sages, well, you can use these to become an official herdsman.
Isn’t this nonsense?
If the various schools of thought are still there, and their content is mixed in, this is a compound talent.
As for literature...the courtiers are all literature, what use are you for governing the country?
There is no use for hair!
No, it’s useful. It’s okay. Go to brothels and use poems and prose to seduce prostitutes. Later Liu Yong was like this, he even missed the lead! Afterwards, he hung out in the brothel, like a fish in water.
Li Yifu saw Jia Pingan surrounded by people, so he left alone, turned around later and sneered, "Looking at your laughter today, you will get into trouble sooner or later."
Li Hong, the Suanxue sacrificial wine, is here.
"Meet Your Highness."
Everyone saluted.
Li Yifu's eyes changed slightly.
"That's right, the prince is learning how to sacrifice wine, but the old man's methods are useless."
He clenched his fists tightly, took a deep breath, "Let's see later."
Li Ji returned to the value room, and people called Li Jingye.
"Mmmmmm!"
Li Jingye agreed indiscriminately. As for whether to learn or not, it is another matter.
"Why does the old man think there is something wrong with the title Lu Gong?"
Li Ji suddenly thought of this matter.
"Ah Weng, Duke Lu is Duke Lu. This title is actually wrong. It should be Duke Cheng. Who is called Duke Lu..."
Li Jingye found that there was a big problem, "Ah Weng, you are British Duke, if you learn the name of Lu Gong, you are Ying Gong. The word Ying..."
Li Ji's complexion turned black.
Yinggong, Yingong!
No wonder the old man felt something was wrong.
"British Duke!"
An official came in and saw that Li Jingye was there, so he smiled and said, "Li Yuanwailang is also here!"
"I'm leaving." Li Jingye warned: "Aunt, don't play tricks anymore...Be careful and break your waist."
The grandson still cares about me.
Li Ji was delighted, "I can still drink alcohol and eat meat, so there is no need to be so careful."
"But once you get drunk, you have to sober up for several days."
Li Jingye shook his head and slipped away.
The official snickered, and then said: "Your Majesty just explained that the crown prince has been watching politics for a long time, but he has little experience in the temple. What should I do..."
This is sending someone to ask questions.
Li Ji pondered.
The crown prince is the foundation of the country, and now he is growing up... It is necessary to observe politics.
But what next?
"My lord, Your Majesty asked the important ministers like this, and the officials thought... This is paving the way for the crown prince."
Li Ji nodded.
The crown prince is getting old, and he wants to come out to have fun. I think you should also make a way for him...
Li Ji smiled slightly, "The prince is pure, filial and intelligent, so I won't say much."
…
Most of the important ministers were vague, and they didn't want to get involved in the prince's affairs.
"They're all a bunch of old foxes."
Li Zhi sneered and said, "I knew they would do this."
Wu Mei smiled and said: "Your Majesty, Goro is only eleven years old, too early."
Li Zhi glanced at her, his eyes darkened, "Inheritance of the throne is never easy. Goro is eleven years old, but many people become emperors before they are eleven years old.
My body is getting better now, but after all, the root of the disease lies in...
Sun Simiao told me in private that this disease, as Jia Pingan said, cannot be cured, only maintenance. If there is a violent outbreak one day...who will the Great Tang Guozuo be handed over to? At that time, no matter how old Goro was..."
Wu Mei obviously thought of Changsun Wuji, "When your Majesty first ascended the throne, you had powerful ministers and strong enemies outside, which can be called internal troubles and foreign troubles..."
"It took me more than ten years to stabilize the situation, so... Goro can't delay."
He said frankly: "If I had been established as the prince earlier and learned political affairs earlier, I would not have been seized by Changsun Wuji and others."
Wu Mei nodded, "If I had learned it earlier, I would have known it well."
Li Zhi said lightly: "Born in the emperor's family, you can't help yourself. Tianjia... There are no young people!"
Wu Mei smiled and said, "Ask sir?"
This idea is not bad.
So the servants set off again.
Aggregation of answers later.
"It is said that the prince will meet with state and county officials...inquire about the situation in various places."
Wu Mei sneered, "Stupid."
This is the emperor's duty, and the prince's doing so is overstepping.
"Some people say, let His Highness go out to inspect."
Li Zhi was a little helpless.
"The crown prince is the foundation of the country, how can he stay away for a long time?" Wu Mei said sarcastically, "These gentlemen are either extremely pedantic, or they don't know the importance. They just teach some Confucianism. Participating in state affairs will harm others and themselves."
Shao Peng hesitated to speak.
"Say." Wu Mei said lightly.
"Queen, Duke Jia is also the prince's husband."
Wu Mei glanced at him, "So you go ask."
Shaopeng didn't know whether the look was good or bad, so he went to find Jia Pingan nervously.
"Mr. Jia? He said he was going home to study."
The answer from the Ministry of War is very official.
Ren Yaxiang didn't even have any mood swings.
Poor old Ren.
Being harmed by Xiao Jia is not light.
Shaopeng chased all the way, and caught up with Jia Pingan on the way.
"The crown prince has less experience, what can your Majesty ask you to do?"
this…
The elder nephew's experience is insufficient.
To resolve this matter...
"This is more troublesome, and the important ministers dare not get involved."
Shaopeng felt that the emperor was trying to test people's hearts.
"There is nothing you dare not mix with. You are selfless in your heart, so you can speak freely."
Jia Pingan doesn't think that playing dead can live a long life. "The prince grows up in the deep palace, and he is surrounded by servants or women. What he hears and sees is either palace affairs or memorials. Most of the time, the emperor and empress listen to him when discussing political affairs." …
But Lao Shao, such a prince is only talking on paper even after he has learned to be fifty years old. "
Shaopeng nodded, "That makes sense."
"Actually, there are many ways."
Jia Ping'an looked determined, and Shaopeng sneered, "Those gentlemen's methods are worthless when they are refuted by the queen. You should think about it, or... I will talk about it in the memorial tomorrow."
"No need." Jia Ping'an still has a lot of things to do, the old dandy student is coming to class today, so he should be dismissed early, and he has to go to Gaoyang soon...
Men are so hard.
"The so-called experience, first of all, is the customs and folk customs of various places in the Tang Dynasty. From this, it can be seen that local changes have made it difficult for the officials below to deceive the emperor.
The second is the operation of the government affairs of the Tang Dynasty... If you understand these, you can use your arms like your fingers; the third is the court... I think the current situation of the prince will take the first two steps. It's all right! "
Jia Pingan thinks these people think too much...
Shao Peng was already taken aback by what he heard.
"Isn't it a matter? Those gentlemen have just been criticized by the queen..."
"They are them, I am me." Jia Pingan said flatly: "You just go back and report."
In the future, there will be a spectacular scene of royal Gu raising. In order to achieve the goal of survival of the fittest, the emperor threw his sons out, either commanding the army, or governing in six departments. It is clear at a glance who is the dragon and who is the snake.
The one who wins in the end must be the powerful existence that devoured the other brothers, making his succession impeccable.
In fact, the emperor Gaozu and the first emperor were raising Gu?
Stir the relationship between several sons and let them fight among themselves. The emperor easily balanced the power of these sons. In this way, there is no need to learn the vicious methods of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty who killed his son for power.
If the eldest nephew wants to get out of this environment of raising Gu as soon as possible, he must be placed in a position where the emperor can rest assured and the emperor can rest assured.
Learned, but will not expand their power.
Low-key, low-key again.
Hang on!
Shao Peng hurried back.
"Mr. Jia said... Even at the age of fifty, the crown prince is only talking on paper."
Li Zhi's eyes were slightly cold, "Are you mocking me?"
Li Zhi himself grew up in the deep palace, so it is not an exaggeration to say that he is talking on paper.
My brother seems to be drifting away...Wu Mei hurriedly smoothed things over, "But after His Majesty ascended the throne, he has been receiving officials from various places every day, and he is still thinking about the situation in various states and counties late at night..."
You have made up your lessons!
Li Zhi's face turned pale, "What else did he say?"
Xiao Jia, you almost killed us... Shao Peng broke out in a cold sweat, "Mr. Jia said that His Majesty's move is wise. As the Crown Prince, he wants to increase his experience..."
"... first go to the six departments to observe and inspect the government, learn to find and solve problems, this is the most important..."
"Six parts..."
Li Zhi pondered.
Wu Mei was reading the memorial, and felt that the emperor's mood was wrong, so she raised her head and asked, "Is what Ping'an said wrong?"
Li Zhi shook his head, "Extremely appropriate."
He ordered: "Call the prince."
Li Hong is here.
"From tomorrow onwards, if you have free time, go to the Six Departments to observe politics."
Li Hong was obviously stunned.
"If you find something wrong, come back and report to me."
