Chapter 96: A Brief Discussion on Emperors (Part 2)(1/2)
Li Zhi: Big, why did you hit me? How bad is it?
Li Er: Do you know Duan Zhixuan?
Li Zhi: General of the Assistant State? You praised him as Zhou Yafu in the past.
Li Er: That kid was a street bully in Taiyuan at the beginning. As soon as he arrived, he beat up all the evil young gangsters on the ground. He relied on his tall people and big horses to walk sideways in Taiyuan all day long.
Li Zhi: What happened later?
Li Er: Later I made an appointment with him and he followed me.
Li Zhi:...
Li Er: Do you know Zheng In-tai?
Li Zhi: General Zuotun Guard? I know that he is following you to attack Goguryeo and is very brave.
Li Er: The boy was idle and looked down on his father's eighth-rank official. He swayed on the street with a sword all day, saying, "I want to be Ji Bu's man!"
Li Zhi: What happened later?
Li Er: Later, when I greeted me, he followed me.
Li Zhi:...
Li Er: Do you know Gongsun Wuda?
Li Zhi: Are you talking about the Duke of Donglai County? I heard from the Chief Secretary that when he was fighting the Turks, the imperial army was still gathering. There was a Turkish cavalry that planned to use Suzhou to cross the south to Tuyuhun. At that time, General Gongsun, the governor of Suzhou, led only 2,000 troops and horses to attack halfway through Zhangye River, and wiped out the Turks.
Li Er: At the end of the Sui Dynasty, there were riots everywhere. Once, Gongsun Wuda was walking on the road and encountered a group of thieves blocking the road, stripping off all his money and clothes, and asking for his leather boots. Gongsun Wuda raised his foot and asked them to take off. As soon as the thief squatted down, Gongsun Wuda pressed the person to the ground and hit the thief to death.
Li Zhi: I got it... He followed you later, right?
Li Er: Do you know Qiu Xinggong?
Li Zhi: I know, it’s the black demon who eats the black demon.
Li Er: Before we entered the pass, several groups of thieves and commanders in Guanzhong each occupied the mountain as kings. At that time, Xinggong and the others gathered troops in Meiwu. A group of Ma Nu from the former Sui Dynasty ran out of Pingliang Mujian. Qiu Xinggong found out that he decided to collect this batch of God-given BMWs. So he made an appointment with someone a day and brought hundreds of followers with good wine and meat to the slave thieves' base camp.
Li Zhi: What happened later?
Li Er: With one knife, the head of the opposite chief was knocked down.
Li Zhi:...
Li Er: Pheasant slave!
Li Zhi: Big, what's the matter?
Li Er: Are you eighteen years old this year?
Li Zhi: Yes.
Li Er: It’s time to go to the underworld to experience it.
Li Zhi: Big!
Li Er: I missed when I was as old as you...
Li Zhi: Big!!
Li Er: Yes?
Li Zhi: What~~~
...
OK, all of the above are jokes.
Li Zhi is indeed not as good as Li Shimin.
Because Li Shimin, a founder of the generation, started from scratch and ruled the heroes.
Li Zhi stood on the legacy left to him by Li Shimin.
As far as the second generation of the Empire is concerned, Li Zhi is extremely outstanding.
“Ami.”
Li Zhi's voice interrupted Su Dawei's distractedness.
He hurriedly crossed his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I don't know..."
"There are words written by Taizong in this book."
Li Zhi did not answer, but turned on the pages of the book and murmured: "Use ancient times as a mirror to know the rise and fall."
Su Dawei's body was slightly shocked. He had heard this sentence, but it was only in later history books.
I wonder what Li Zhi meant when he said this.
Can't you say meaningless things, right?
What is it implying?
"Sit down."
Li Zhi signaled Su Dawei. Under the service of the eunuch, he found a stool and put several layers of soft cushions before sitting down.
Seeing Li Zhi sitting down, Su Dawei sat down gently on a bench.
I only sat half my butt.
"Your Majesty comes to Ami, I wonder what's wrong?"
"You're very good lately."
Li Zhi patted the handrail: "Especially, I have found Sun Simiao for me and the prince. I must reward you with great reward."
Su Dawei hurriedly said, "This is all the work of the minister, and I dare not ask for rewards."
"I heard that Wang Xuance has found you?"
"Yes." Su Dawei was shocked.
Unexpectedly, Wang Xuance came to the door and Li Zhi knew so quickly.
It seems that Li Zhi's current grasp of the information in Ducha Temple is more efficient than he imagined.
This is a bit like the feeling of the Ming emperor in later generations who supervised all officials in the hands of the Jinyiwei.
Fortunately, he and Wang Xuance didn't talk about anything taboo, so they were not afraid.
"Did Wang Xuance mention Master Xuanzang's "The Record of the Western Regions of the Great Tang Dynasty"?"
"yes."
"What did you say?"
"He said..."
Su Dawei secretly wriggled his Adam's apple and calmed down: "He said that the monk went west to more than 100 countries, and many of them were abandoned. Many of those small countries were still thinking about restoring the country before they were destroyed, so he buried his treasures underground for the purpose of restoring the country.
It is also said that Master Xuanzang's books may contain clues because Master visited those countries one by one."
"Oh, how do you feel after hearing this?"
Li Zhi asked calmly.
Su Dawei was sweating all over his back.
He was sure that if there was any concealment or incorrectness in what he said just now, Li Zhi would definitely change his face.
Is this Li Zhi’s “test” on himself?
"I am not interested in money."
Su Dawei looked up at Li Zhi boldly, facing Li Zhi's scrutiny: "I asked myself that the business is not bad, and the money I earn is enough to live a good life. What's more, as the doctor of the Sanchao said, I am a Tang Dynasty man and a minister of the Tang Dynasty, why should I be greedy for the little things of the Hu people?"
Li Zhi did not speak immediately, but pondered for a moment and nodded slightly: "Yes, Wang Xuance is not confused yet."
Seeing that Su Dawei was a little nervous, Li Zhi continued: "The "Stories of the Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty" were originally in your hands? You send him into the palace."
"this……"
"Don't worry, you don't care. How could I care about those things? Since you promised Master Xuanzang to hand over the book to the descendants of the Gaochang Kingdom, I also have the beauty of becoming a human being. You just need to hand it over to the palace, review it, remove some unnecessary words, and return it to you."
It turned out that we were going to review and remove the text that might reveal treasure information.
Su Dawei couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and at the same time he was glad that he had no greed for these treasures.
He stood up and crossed his hands to Li Zhi and said, "I'll go back to get the book now."
"Sit down, no hurry."
A meaningful look appeared on Li Zhi's round face: "I want to chat with you for a while."
"yes."
At the warning of Li Zhi, Su Dawei sat down again.
There was a stir in my heart, and I wonder what Li Zhi would say to him.
However, Li Zhi did not speak quickly, but turned on the book "A Brief Discourse on the Emperor" in his hand.
To be continued...
