- ?
The first year of Zhenguan was not easy for Li Shimin. Because the government affairs of the DPRK and China have too many adjustments and too many rectifications. This year, Li Shimin was busy during the day and at night, and that's how he got there.
By the end of the year, everything went smoothly.
At this time, Li Shimin breathed a sigh of relief. One year later, officials from all over the Tang Dynasty have basically adjusted, and they have all been replaced by Li Shimin's people. And this year, because of Li Shimin's hard work, coupled with the destruction of the Turkic looting, and the suppression of aristocratic families during Li Yuan's period, the commercial development was very good.
The people's life is quite good.
However, Li Shimin is still not satisfied. In today's Datang, it can only be said that everything has been handed over for the time being, and it is far from enough to achieve a harmonious government and people in various places.
Especially in the west of the Tang Dynasty, there are Tuyuhun and Tubo, in the northeast there are Goguryeo, Silla, Baekje, etc., and even in the southeast there are Wa countries. According to Li Shimin's nature, he hopes that all countries will come to the court.
There are many similarities between Li Shimin and Yang Guang, the second emperor of the Sui Dynasty.
Both were born as second sons.
All those who made great military exploits during the founding of the country, all became emperors by seizing the heir.
However, Yang Guang finally buried the Great Sui, making the good times of the Great Sui completely gone. The great Sui Dynasty that once spanned the north and south of the river, the mighty Yang family completely collapsed.
Li Shimin also relied on seizing the heir, and he even forced the palace to become the emperor. Therefore, in Li Shimin's heart, he always warned himself that he must not follow Yang Guang's old path.
If Li Shimin wants to wash away the stains on his body, he must make great contributions, and more importantly, he must make all nations come to court, and he must make the Tang Dynasty flourish. However, Li Shimin can't make big strides like Yang Guang, he has to be steady.
Ensure the stability of Datang.
This is what Li Shimin has to do.
Therefore, Li Shimin handled government affairs conscientiously, even in the face of Wei Zheng's spitting remonstrance, and even when Wei Zheng almost pointed at his nose to remonstrate, Li Shimin endured it.
Everything is for Datang.
On this day, after Li Shimin finished handling government affairs, he rarely had time to rest.
Li Shimin went straight to the harem. Although there were many concubines in Li Shimin's harem, Li Shimin only favored the eldest grandson empress.
The eldest grandson Wugou is the best in the harem.
Li Shimin entered the palace of Changsun Wugou, and all the servants and maidservants saluted one after another. Seeing this, the eldest grandson Wugou hurriedly got up and said, "Your Majesty is coming to the palace, why didn't you notify me in advance? The concubine can welcome you."
Li Shimin smiled and said: "Guanyin maidservant, between you and me, there is no need to be polite."
After finishing speaking, Li Shimin waved his hand.
A group of court ladies retreated, leaving Li Shimin and his eldest grandson Wugou alone.
Li Shimin held his elder grandson Wugou's hand, and with a smile on his face, he said, "It's almost the end of the year, and the Ministry of Shangshu has started to count the accounts for this year. Whether it's population, taxes, or other things, they are all being counted." middle."
"Although there is no specific answer for the time being, but roughly speaking, it is quite good."
"I checked first. This year's population has increased by a little over 100,000 households, which is very good. Moreover, the harvest of grain and the increase in taxes are quite good."
Li Shimin smiled and said: "With such a momentum, I can relax a little bit in my heart."
The eldest grandson Wugou said: "It is not easy for Your Majesty to create a foundation. Such an achievement now is all thanks to His Majesty. This year, His Majesty's temples have suffered a little bit of gray hair. You must know that Your Majesty is still in his prime, and it is not easy to be an emperor!"
Li Shimin looked approving, and said with emotion: "The words of Guanyin's servant girl are deeply in my heart. You are right, it is not easy to be an emperor. But an emperor who does not work hard is a foolish emperor. Naturally, he has to bear the burden of all the people on his shoulders." Work harder. But as long as you achieve something, you are worthy of your efforts.¡±
The eldest grandson Wugou said: "Your Majesty has worked hard, but the courtiers below are not easy, and they are all stretched. On this point, Your Majesty must understand the courtiers below, and can't be too strict."
Li Shimin said: "Of course I understand, look at that guy Wei Zheng, he humiliated me several times, but I didn't care about it."
Changsun Wugou smiled and said: "This is His Majesty's broad-mindedness, and it is also Wei Zheng's blessing."
Li Shimin laughed, quite proud.
In Changsun Wugou's place, receiving praise is far more fulfilling than the praise Li Shimin received in front of the courtiers.
The eldest grandson Wugou said with a smile: "However, Your Majesty cannot be arrogant, because if you??, it is far from a peaceful and prosperous age, but it is just the beginning. Your Majesty has made a good start, and if he wants to maintain it, he must persevere. In this way, the Great Tang under His Majesty's governance must be far superior to the Great Sui Dynasty, and it must be far superior to the Great Tang that his father once ruled. "
A gleam flashed in Li Shimin's eyes, and he said: "I will definitely build an unprecedented Great Tang, and let those who do not recognize me see that the Great Tang under my governance can flourish like never before."
The eldest grandson Wugou smiled and said: "With Fang Xiang, Du Xiang assisting, and many civil and military virtuous ministers, His Majesty will definitely do it."
Li Shimin said: "Take your time."
The eldest grandson Wugou suddenly said: "Your Majesty, Du Erlang has gone to Longyou Dao, is there any news? This kid is a master who can make troubles. I don't know how this kid is doing now."
Li Shimin said: "There is no latest news to send back yet, but I believe that Du Erlang, a boy, will definitely eliminate the chaos in Longyou Dao and gain a foothold in Jiuquan County."
Changsun Wugou said: "Your Majesty's words are true."
"Report!"
At this moment, a servant entered.
The servant is Li Shimin's personal entourage, named Tang Zhen, who is now the head of the house. He followed Li Shimin and was responsible for all the affairs around Li Shimin.
Tang Zhen replaced Xiao Li in the past.
After all, Xiao Li was by Li Yuan's side, and now that Li Yuan has retreated to the second line, Xiao Li naturally also retired.
Tang Zhen walked to Li Shimin's side, bowed and saluted, "Your Majesty, there is news from Longyou Dao, and it belongs to King Pingxi."
Previously, Li Shimin had ordered that if there was news from Du Qi, he would report it directly at any time. It is precisely this way that Tang Zhen will enter the conversation between Li Shimin and Changsun Wugou.
If Du Qi hadn't been involved, Tang Zhen wouldn't have entered at all. Other things can be pushed, but this matter can't be pushed.
Li Shimin said: "Where are the letters?"
Tang Zhen immediately took out the letter from his sleeve and put it in Li Shimin's hand.
Li Shimin opened the letter and quickly browsed it. When he finished reading the contents of the letter, a bright smile appeared on his face, and he said, "Guanyin maidservant, look, it really is as I said, Du Erlang, this kid, has easily won the entire Suzhou. Now Su Suzhou is already under Du Qi's control, and all the bandits in Suzhou have been wiped out."
After a pause, Li Shimin said again: "Du Erlang is going to target Shazhou and Guazhou next time. Places like Jingping are just around the corner."
"Congratulations, Your Majesty, congratulations, Your Majesty."
Changsun Wugou said: "Your Majesty's arrangement for Du Erlang to go to the Western Regions is really a wonderful move."
Li Shimin stroked the mustache under his chin, with a proud expression on his face, and said: "But now Suzhou has been captured. In Du Erlang's letter, he hopes to promote someone from the local area to serve as the governor of Suzhou."
?Eldest Sun Wugou said: "Your Majesty, this is a government affairs of the imperial court, you need to call Fang Xiang, Du and others to discuss it."
Li Shimin smiled when he heard Changsun Wugou's words, he knew that Changsun Wugou was not involved in politics.
That's why I said so.
Li Shimin didn't stay long, got up and took Tang Zhen away. When he returned to the palace, he asked Tang Zhen to issue an order to invite Changsun Wuji, Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling to discuss matters.
Although Changsun Wuji is a loose official, his titles and positions are all first-class. The most important thing is that Changsun Wuji is Li Shimin's confidant, even if there are no officials, he has always been at the core of the court.
