When Li Mingda said this about Yang Guang, some veterans of the Sui Dynasty naturally had nothing to say, and they also thought so.

Some people naturally want to refute

"I think this is not the case. Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty was fatuous and wasted money and people. The so-called canal construction was just to allow him to travel to the south of the Yangtze River."

"That's right, after so many people were killed and injured, you still talk about merit."

"I beg to differ"

Fang Xuanling, Kong Yingda and other officials looked at the officials at the exit and said, "You silly kids, you know nothing. The princess just said that 80% of the food and supplies going north are passing through the canal. Isn't it clear?"

.

So blind

It would be useless to keep it.

A cruel smile emerged from the corner of Li Mingda's mouth. He was waiting for these people seeking death, otherwise it would be bad if he had no enemies and would be invincible and lonely.

"Well, then let me ask you whether you eat rice."

"eat"

“Rice is grown there”

“Of course it’s Jiangnan”

"The rice eaten by the wind is all transported from the south of the Yangtze River. When there were no canals, it would cost 60% to transport a bucket of rice to be released. With the canal, the cost of one layer or less is enough."

"The Beijing-Hangzhou Canal not only connects the flow of goods between the north and the south, but also solves the major problem of food and clothing for the people in the wind, allowing the people in the north to eat the food and cloth from the south during the cold winter."

"Also, the cities on both sides of the canal have a booming population and economy, and the taxes they pay are many times higher than the same cities in the mainland. Are your ears and eyes filled with donkey hair every day in the court?"

"I don't know about this situation, and I still have the nerve to stay here. The managers of each department will send a copy of the evaluations of you people to the imperial study. I will take them to Jin Yiwei for verification later. Don't think that I will forget,

You can’t see their evaluations, so those of you in charge have to step in for them.”

"It is said that Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty wasted money and money by digging canals, so let me ask you, did Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty go to the canal and beat the people who were working with whips, and did he lack money and food in various places? No?"

"It's all you local officials who flatter the emperor and keep the emperor from knowing the sufferings of the people. In order to show your achievements, you force and oppress the people who work, resulting in countless deaths and injuries. Otherwise, according to the scheduled construction period and allocated money,

, this kind of situation will happen there, and there will be some collusion between the upper and lower levels to deceive the upper and lower levels, and keep reporting false progress of the project, so that Yang Guang does not know the real situation, constantly changes and urges the construction period, and finally leads to a tragedy of historical level."

"You also regard my father as Yang Guanghu. The laws and horizontal swords of the Tang Dynasty will let you know what the word death is."

Li Mingda scolded loudly, causing those who were talking just now to shut up in an instant.

Li Shimin expressed that he was very satisfied. He was almost angry to death by these grandsons just now. They dared to talk about Emperor Sui and he didn't want to live anymore.

Li Ke felt that he should have a good relationship with Li Mingda. Complimenting him like this was a disguised approval of his embarrassing identity, wasn't it?

A group of stupid chickens were trembling and scared and dared not speak. Li Mingda organized the following words: "Regarding the war between Goguryeo and the Japanese island country, this princess feels that it is time to prepare to wash away the shame of the nation with the blood of the enemy."

War means military exploits

The generals raised their hands in agreement

Some officials finally dared to raise their hands in opposition

"I object"

"I also object"

"Goguryeo is an unknown place"

"Yes, do you still remember Emperor Yang of Sui Dynasty?"

A group of chattering civil servants expressed disapproval.

In this situation, Li Ke's face turned black. Emperor Sui Yang and his grandfather Li Mingda just praised him, and these people started again. Li Shimin was even more unhappy. Did he compare him to Emperor Sui Yang again?

Lao Li's face darkened. Li Mingda said that his plan had succeeded. He raised his little hand and cursed at the shouting civil servants: "You are a bunch of spineless pedants. If someone else kills your parents, go ahead."

After losing your wife and children, are you still going to help him? Where is Eggy? You might as well be the gatekeeper at the door, Ah Huang."

"Why did the princess insult us?"

"Yes, why do we have no backbone?"

"That's right, although we are scholars, the natural backbone and shame"

Li Mingda bared his teeth and asked them: ""Book of Rites Tan Gong" records such a conversation. Zixia asked Confucius: "What is it like to be the enemy of your parents?" The Confucius said: "Sleeping on a thatch and a pillow, you are not an official.

, We cannot share the world with you! When encountering various cities and dynasties, do not resist and fight!"

This passage is about Zixia asking Confucius: What should I do if I face my parents' enemies of life and death?

What the other party meant was: If you can't beat them, just endure it for a while. There are guys around you, ready at any time. If you encounter them on the road, don't think about it at all. Just go home and get your weapons, and just rush up and kill them.

Someone asked Confucius: "How about repaying evil with kindness?"

"Confucius said: "If we repay evil with kindness, how can we repay kindness? So we should: repay kindness with kindness, and repay kindness with kindness."

Li Mingda asked Kong Yingda on the side: "Master Kong, are we right?"

Kong Yingda nodded silently: "Her Royal Highness the Princess is right."

OK

It seems that Kong Yingda is quite good, at least he doesn't tell lies.

After Kong Yingda said this, the students below shut up.

"Those who died in the war and who died in social turmoil later, don't you have your uncles, parents, grandparents, don't you have your ancestors?"

"The bones of the soldiers and civilians who died in Liaodong are still there, and they were made into Jingguan. The bones were abandoned in the wilderness, and some people were even enslaved there. Are your parents and relatives there? If so, what can you do?

Can you endure it?”

"The reason why we opened a stand with Goguryeo back then was because we were disobedient and humiliated our country. How can we say it's a shame to humiliate our country? You keep saying "lord, father, king, father". You just talk about it. You know what the four major shames and the four major hatreds are.

?"

"The hatred for killing one's father, the hatred for taking away one's wife, the hatred for being a slave to the country's subjugation, and the hatred for exterminating the family"

"Insulting China, surrendering repeatedly without shame, insulting the remains of our ancestors, and now that the land of China is in chaos, Liaodong's soldiers are leading a war, taking advantage of the opportunity to come over and try to cut off our territory. Do you think this country should not be destroyed?"

"Or, are you just a coward? You only know how to eat the food grown by the people of China, oppress the people of China, and then secretly collect their money, and you are bent on betraying the country~!"

Li Mingda put down his big hat, and the people below closed their mouths for the first time.

Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Jingde applauded directly and shouted: "Her Royal Highness the Princess is right, these people are just cowards and cowards. It is up to us men to fight and defend our country."

Yuchi Jingde echoed loudly: "Yes, they are just some trash, just mud. It's okay to bully the common people. Just like what I said just now, if you can't save everything, you can help others, hahahahaha."

Hahahahahaha

The generals in the hall laughed mockingly
