Chapter 738 Who will be at the helm
"You can take it down." Gu Qingyou said, "Actually, the situation in Tubo is to put it bluntly. It is just a good chess move made by Songtsen Gantou."
"That's why I brought Dashi in. At one time, three parties will weigh the trade-offs. Is it right?" Li Tai interrupted.
"Why do you use a knife to kill people?" Cheng Chumo woke up and said, "Tibo is a dog who relies on the power of others!"
Cheng Chumo had a very clear mind, and he didn't know how he thought of this sentence. If he thought about it carefully, there was some truth.
"There are fish." Fang Yizhi caught a big carp. "Tonight, I can cook fish soup for my old father. He has a bad tooth and always eats vegetarian food these days."
In the village
Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng, Kong Yingda and Sun Simiao gathered together to watch a large group of people still playing in the village.
"I'm older and older," Fang Xuanling said to An Ning's village, "The old guys in Chang'an really can't come out to walk around. It is said that Hong Fu Nu has returned to Li Jing's side recently?"
"When did it happen?" Wei Zhengxufa asked, "I don't know what happened to Li Jing's body. Has his cold legs cured?"
"The disease of leg cold is not so easy to treat, sometimes it is a lifelong thing." Sun Simiao whispered, "This disease needs to be cured, and it will not be cured in a short time. However, Li Jing has a good foundation and will not be seriously injured."
"We old guys have to live longer." Kong Yingda also said, "After so many years, we have finally seen a prosperous era. We have to see the joy of the people in the world. After so many years, we finally see the people's life is prosperous."
"The prosperous era? It's still early." Fang Xuanling also said, "This village is good, and the people here live a good life. The world is so big, not all places are like this. It's not easy to govern the world. It takes more time to change the world better and need to go a longer road."
"It's really not easy. It's rare to get to where we are today." Fang Xuanling said, "Those young people did a good job. After the Tang Dynasty's rest in recent years, the national strength has reached a new level. We can't provide any guidance in the future. At this level, our views are already very outdated. The Tang Dynasty needs a new helmman to let the Tang Dynasty go further."
Several old guys know who Fang Xuanling said was the helmsman. Gu Qing is a very good helmsman. After years of observation, many of Gu Qing's ideas were something they had never thought about, dividing the land and supporting merchants. These national policies are often absurd, and some people even deny them. However, after trying Gu Qing's method, it was very effective. Whether in terms of people's livelihood or taxation, it has greatly increased the national strength of the Tang Dynasty. After adding Shanghai trade, it can be seen that the benefits are, but Gu Qing is a person without power and ambitions.
At this point, Fang Xuanling hopes that Gu Qing can be ambitious and bolder. Out of gratitude and respect for his elders, Gu Qing cannot take that step. He owe Li Shimin and the care of Gu Qing by the powerful Duke in the court. All of this is what Gu Qing needs to be grateful for. Along the way, Cheng Yaojin, Qin Qiong, Yuchi Gong, Niu Jinda, and himself, Gu Qing has become the pride in the hearts of many people.
Their pride became Gu Qing's greatest bondage. Although Gu Qing was a prime minister, he was inferior to one person and was inferior to one person. The world was still owned by the Li family, and Gu Qing could not become a person who usurped the throne.
The secret edict between Gu Qing and Li Shimin was destined to leave the court and leave the court. It was a matter of time. But except for Gu Qing, who could be the helmsman of the new era. The road after the Tang Dynasty was something that predecessors had never walked before. There was a confusion. No one went further from here, and no one knew what would be in the distance.
Fang Xuanling remembered an idea that many years ago. Gu Qing sneered at the king. During these days, Gu Qing's various actions seemed to have weakened the king's power, but fed back to his subjects. The system of the three nobles' votes was like a prototype of Gu Qing. Perhaps the further direction was from the three nobles. What would the path of the king and his subjects after checks and balances? Or maybe Gu Qing felt that it was a very stupid idea to usurp the throne. This world may not need the so-called king, but the system of the king has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people for thousands of years. How can it be broken?
"What are you thinking?" Kong Yingda interrupted Fang Xuanling's thoughts.
"I just remembered that the children at home were coming back to dinner tonight, and I didn't know if the old woman had prepared the meal." Fang Xuanling whispered, "I'll go home and have a look."
Fang Xuanling left, Cen Wenben walked over and said with a smile, "A few old guys are here to catch the sun?"
"Why did you come?" Wei Zheng smiled and said, "The students under your command are very arrogant. A few days ago, I defended my classmates all incompletely."
"It's all young people who want to distinguish between the top and bottom of the world, so they can go there." Cen Wenben said, "In recent days, many children in the college have been discussing the government affairs. Can they start a topic about political affairs?"
"You must never do this." Kong Yingda said, "Academy must not get involved in the government affairs."
After hearing Kong Yingda's denial, Cen Wenben was not disappointed. He also knew that it was very dangerous for academy to get involved in the government affairs. Academics are a place for teaching, so just teach well. It is too dangerous for academy to get involved in the government affairs. Academics can educate students how to be an official and how to do things well. It is too quick to get involved in the government affairs. Besides, the timing is not good.
"It's getting late, and I'm back. If you guys are unhappy, say to me." Sun Simiao instructed, "And you Cen Wenben, drink less tea. You can't drink strong tea in your body, it's best to have white water."
"I know, I know." Cen Wenben nodded repeatedly.
Li Chengqian returned to Ganlu Palace and immediately locked himself up. Chu Suiliang wanted to see Li Chengqian and talk about the autumn harvest, but Li Chengqian disappeared.
"What's wrong?" Chu Suiliang asked the little eunuch who was guarding outside the hall.
"Your Majesty has gone to the Supreme Emperor, that's it." The little eunuch replied in a low voice, "It's better to come again tomorrow." Your Majesty is angry. He is afraid that it will not be cured for a while. He just smashed a lot of things, and the queen has already persuaded him."
