Yes, that kid is good at both civil and military skills, and he is also very slippery. The important thing is that he is very vigilant.
Not to mention wanting to take action against him, General Hou and Wei King Li Tai wanted to harm Crown Prince Li Chengqian and his family.
This kid can smell the smell and turn around the situation of certain death.
Moreover, no one knew how to describe this boy's experience on that plateau.
At least one thing is certain. Killing this kid is no less difficult than raising the flag of rebellion in the powerful Tang Dynasty.
"Such a disaster, alas..."
"You don't have to be too depressed. The Tang Dynasty cannot do without us. However, you'd better clean up the beginning and end to prevent His Majesty from making a big fuss about this matter..."

In Wencheng Hall, Fang Xuanling looked at the data curves and was amazed.
He, Fang Erlang's biological father, no longer had any doubts about Cheng Sanlang's talent.
But the problem is, this kid can surprise everyone from time to time. With this ability, I am afraid that even if I search all over the Tang Dynasty, I can't find anyone else.
Tang Jian, on the other hand, looked a little embarrassed and kept stroking his long gray beard.
Although he is the Minister of Hubu, the problem is that, to be honest, he does not care much about things.
After all, it is one thing to be old and lack energy. In addition, he is not a person who is willing to focus on such boring data processing.
He prefers to interact with people and build friendships with them, even strangers or even people who have enmity with the Tang Dynasty.
As long as he was given a certain amount of time, Tang Jian was confident that with his sharp tongue, he would become good friends who could kiss (not a typo) necks with those who had the ability to do so.
"Your Majesty, from this, I can conclude that the population of Luoyang has grown so slowly over the years."
"It is inseparable from Cui Luoyang. Moreover, according to my investigation, all officials in Luoyang County have also testified that Zheng Zhubo is Cui Luoyang's confidant."
"And the county head has the important responsibility of handling affairs and registering, and copying records of provincial offices..."
Cheng Chubi saw Li Shimin's frighteningly gloomy face, but he had no intention of stopping. After all, he had already come, and he couldn't just start and give up halfway.
Besides, the behavior of those aristocratic families is no longer just clinging to the towering ancient tree of the Tang Dynasty to suck blood.
It's like digging into the foundation of the Tang Dynasty. You must know that in a country, only the growth of population will lead to the growth of consumption, which will also increase the taxation.
It will also increase various outputs, forming a virtuous positive cycle.
The approach of aristocratic families is to pull out nails and bolts in this positive cycle.
Of course Cheng Chubi would not like to see this kind of behavior of eating your food and smashing your pot.
After all, the reason why the old Cheng family is what it is today is precisely because of living in this peaceful and powerful Tang Empire.
Cheng Chubi would only hope that the Tang Dynasty would get better and better, so that his descendants could live happily and peacefully under the protection of this feudal empire.
Rather than just like another historical time and space, repeated over and over again.
Since I can do it, let me do it. Anyway, it is within my ability, and at least I have no regrets.
After all, the existence of aristocratic families is not a good thing for either the feudal era or the imperial era.
Only when Cheng Chubi started drinking tea with a dry mouth did Li Shimin look away from the account books and forms.
After his eyes swept over Fang Xuanling and Tang Jian in front of him, he said this with profound meaning.
"Actually, it's not that I don't know the little things these aristocratic families do in private."
His eyes once again fell on Cheng Sanlang, who spent most of his time in the wine shop playing cards in the past few days.
"Son-in-law, how do you have time? Well, in such a short time, how did you get this data?"
Cheng Chubi originally thought that Li Shimin would ask some key questions or core issues about Luoyang's population anomaly.
I never expected that he would actually care about such a small issue as how he handles data.
But since I asked, of course I couldn't not answer.
"Actually, it's very simple. When my son-in-law was in Luzhou with His Highness the King of Wu, he had been thinking about the fact that the Tang Dynasty in Jiannan Road is very vast and sparsely populated."
"So, we have been considering how to achieve sustained and stable growth in the population in the central and southern areas of Jiannan Road in the shortest possible time."
"This will facilitate our Datang's rule in the central and southern areas of Jiannan Road. After all, the larger population will be more conducive to our Datang's development of the central and southern areas of Jiannan Road."
"At that time, my son-in-law had already consciously collected these data through His Highness King Wu as a reference..."
Li Shimin's eyes turned and fell on his son. Li Ke faced his father's probing gaze and could only nod his head honestly.
"Yes, Father, at that time, Brother Chu Bi asked me to give him some information, and my son also felt that what Brother Chu Bi said made sense..."
"If that's the case, then why don't you report it to your father?"
Li Shimin looked at his biological son. He had always thought that this little brat, like Yingguo, would be confused about such things.
#####
Seeing his father's bulging eyes, Li Ke couldn't help but wince.
Fortunately, at this time, Brother Chu Bi interrupted.
"My father-in-law, in fact, my son-in-law only had an idea at that time, and it had not yet become a completed thing, so..."
"Okay." Li Shimin raised his hand to stop the two young men wearing a pair of trousers from covering each other.
"It's rare for a good son-in-law to do such... well, such serious and detailed research. I am very pleased that you are working hard and diligently..."
Although it's a bit ridiculous to say that this guy did serious and detailed research, this guy was able to get things done.
Come on, just play cards if you like. It's not a bad thing anyway. My father is now playing cards with the concubines in the Ten Thousand Kingdoms Garden to fight against the landlords.
I went over to say hello, but every time my father would drag me to the card table and play a few games, saying that this game was very good for the elderly to exercise their memory.
Fang Xuanling on the side also had a solemn expression. This famous Prime Minister of the Tang Dynasty, who was very good at mental arithmetic, just made some calculations in his mind. He couldn't help but take a breath and whispered to Li Shimin.
"Your Majesty, judging from this table, I'm afraid the number of hidden households in Luoyang will not be less than this..."
Seeing Fang Xuanling's gesticulating fingers, Li Shimin's face was so gloomy that he almost shed tears.
"I never thought that they would act so boldly."
"Zhao Kun!"
"I'm here."
"Order the Dali Temple to take Lord Zheng into custody and interrogate him strictly in the Dali Temple."
Cheng Chubi couldn't help but feel a little anxious when he saw Li Shimin quickly leaving behind Zhao Kun after giving his instructions.
