After stepping into the court, I can no longer speak as freely as the farmer boy before.

If you say something wrong to the villagers, at most someone else will give you a roll of your eyes. If you say something wrong to the Emperor, you will give you more than just a roll of your eyes, maybe a steel knife with a neck.

Li Su used to resist being an official, but he was afraid of the knife. He did not have the strength and courage to rebel, so he could only choose to stay away. Now that he has entered the court in a daze, Li Su is still afraid of the knife.

"The boy doesn't understand national affairs and dares not talk nonsense..." Li Su said carefully.

Li Shimin's expression was a little unhappy.

Li Su also felt that this answer was too perfunctory, so he thought about it and came up with a more perfunctory sentence.

"Is it a troop or support? I thought about it for a long time, and I thought about it. I felt that there is a reason to send troops, and there is also a reason to support. It is like having a meal. There is a plate of venison on the left and a plate of mutton on the right. Do you eat venison or mutton? This... all depends on the taste of Your Majesty."

Li Shimin's face gradually turned black. His hands placed under the table sometimes clenched their fists and sometimes turned into palms. His moves were unpredictable, and Li Su was frightened.

If it were to be changed, one of his sons, Li Shimin, said this, and he would probably have a slap. However, the boy in front of him was not born to him, he was not familiar with him, so he was embarrassed to start...

Taking a deep breath with his eyelids, Li Shimin said in a nearly murmuring voice: "The Jiaozhou Governor's Office of Lingnan Road still lacks a chief and historian. This kid is so slippery. Should I put him out to Lingnan and let him reflect on it?"

A map of the territory of the Tang Dynasty quickly appeared in Li Su's mind, and he quickly searched for the location of Jiaozhou. Then his scalp exploded and his forehead was sweating.

It's really cruel. Jiaozhou is only a few hundred miles away from Laos in later generations, and it belongs to the wilderness of the wilderness. If it is exiled there, it would be better to hit and die in this hall.

"Ah! The boy suddenly had a new idea about the Xue Yantuo Rebellion..." Li Su changed his mind very consciously, and at the same time he felt a sense of self-loathing in his heart, and hated his backlessness very much.

Li Shimin glanced at him with a slight smile, his eyes as if he was looking at a candle that was not lit.

"Oh? Have a new idea? Very good, just come here." Li Shimin smiled. After laughing, he stopped and clapped his hands. Two eunuchs hurriedly carrying a low table. Paper and pens were arranged on the table. The two bowed to Li Shimin, and then knelt down in the corner of the hall. One eunuch spread paper and grinds ink, and the other eunuch dipped ink and hung pens on the white paper, staring at Li Su motionlessly, waiting for him to speak.

Li Su was secretly shocked. This was a very formal model of monarch and ministerial comments. Every sentence recorded by eunuchs on paper will be included in the imperial daily records, actual records and official history. Thousands of years later, every word that the Emperor Majesty and Li Su talked about will be read and studied by countless scholars from later generations.

To put it another way, if Li Shimin made a wrong decision and led to the decline of the Tang Dynasty's destiny, then scholars who were criticizing him a thousand years later would not be the only one, but Li Su would have to be caught.

You're so polite. Li Su's face turned blue. After sighing inwardly, she decided to add some real things.

"Your Majesty, I think it's not time for my Tang Dynasty to send troops..."

Li Shimin raised his thick eyebrows: "How do you say this?"

"Xueyantuo's civil strife all started by the Khan family. Now it seems that the whole country is in chaos, but it is not at the root of the chaos. The leaders of each tribe are the mainstay of Xueyantuo. The leaders of each tribe are in chaos, and Xueyantuo is really in chaos. Now only the Zhenzhu Khan family is severing each other. The hearts of the people in the country have not dispersed, but they have only divided the camps. The camp is only temporary. If they encounter foreign enemies, they will immediately give up the camp and reunite with the outside world. At that time, our King of Tang will be in an embarrassing situation of being in a dilemma..."

Li Shimin glanced at him deeply and said slowly: "After thinking carefully, what you said is indeed reasonable, so you don't agree with sending troops?"

"Yes..." Li Su paused and added: "It's not unanimous. Since the destruction of the Eastern Turks, our Tang Dynasty royal army has won almost every battle. If we send troops to Xue Yantuo, we will definitely win this battle. It's just that we can obviously use strategies to consume the national strength of the other country, and there is no need to use the lives of the thousands of young and strong children in Guanzhong to exchange for this victory. Therefore, it's not a mistake to send troops to the Tang Dynasty, but the boy thinks it's a bad idea..."

Li Shimin's expression became more and more interesting. He stared at him without blinking and said with a smile: "Since you say it is a bad strategy, I think there must be a best strategy in your heart. Let me tell you that this is the fate of the country, so don't be looked down upon!"

Li Su licked his dry lips and said, "Yes, the boy thought...... to support the son of Xueyantuo Khan, use the opportunity to accelerate the division of tribe leaders in the middle of Xueyantuo Kingdom, to separate the righteousness of the monarch and ministers, incite the generals to cause rebellion, assassinate, scapegoat, and buy treacherous slander, etc., these methods are used in several ways. In another half a year, the Xueyantuo Rebellion will be irrescue. At that time, my King's Army of the Tang Dynasty will be twice the result with half a year!"

Li Su smiled and slapped a flattery with sincerity: "Your Majesty sees Wanli clearly. I see the Xue Yantuo Rebellion today. The Tang Dynasty used superb techniques and their contributions are indispensable. Your Majesty has a foresight, far-sighted vision, exquisite layout, and hits a single blow. The timing and strength are just right. I admire you very much."

Li Shimin laughed, pointed to the eunuch who was writing hard, and said, "Don't remember this sentence just now, the ministers are shameless, I can't be shameless..."

The eunuch's face remained unchanged and he calmly stroked the line with his pen. The flattery just now was obscured in the long river of history.

Li Su: “…………”

"Well, Li's boy, what you mean is that I can choose to support a prince Xueyantuo, and use this prince to restrict and suppress the Khan's father and son, gradually consume the national strength of Xueyantuo, and even help him replace the real pearl Khan. Just hold this prince in his hand, which is considered to hold the entire Xueyantuo Kingdom in his hand?"

"Your Majesty's wiseness."

"Zhenzhu Khan has two sons. The eldest son Bazhuo is good at planning and steady, and the second son is dull and brave, brave and tyrannical. Which one should I choose to support him?"

"This is back to the old question just now. There is venison on one side and mutton on the other..."

Before he finished speaking, Li Su's sharp-eyed eyes found that Li Shimin's face was dark again, so he shut up decisively.

Li Shimin glared at him fiercely, then turned to the eunuch and said, "I don't need to remember this sentence just now!"

The eunuch crossed it out very calmly... Another divine reply was wiped out.
