Chapter 1669: No one can stop the development of Datang
"Cui Yinghe's crimes are monstrous."
"Even if he is cut into pieces with a thousand cuts, his sin cannot be forgiven."
"Why can't I kill her?"
Li Shimin was quite puzzled by this, and he couldn't understand what his son was thinking.
"It would be easy to kill her."
"It would be easier to cut her into pieces."
"But father, please never forget that Cui Yinghe represents not just one person, but a group."
"The reason why she was able to bring in so many people at once was because of the disharmony within our Datang."
"There are still some people who want to go against our Tang court."
Li Chengqian said quietly: "So, instead of killing her, it is better to use her to completely eliminate these internal discordant voices."
The reason why he dare not let go and start a bold career now is because of the existence of people like Cui Yinghe.
Their whereabouts are unpredictable, and there is no common sense in their actions. They may not always jump out and cause trouble.
Take the ordnance camp as an example.
If Datang wanted to maximize the output value of the ordnance camp.
It would be best to build the weapons camp directly in the Northern Desert or Northeast.
Because both places have rich mineral resources.
The ordnance battalion can use local materials, make steel on site, and manufacture weapons on site.
But if there are too many internal worries.
Ordnance battalions will always face threats from these people.
Garrisoning a large number of soldiers and horses can certainly be an effective defense.
But in this world, there are people who can commit thieves for a thousand days, but how can they guard against thieves for a thousand days?
Wherever a large number of soldiers and horses are stationed, it will also cost money and allocate resources.
In contrast, for garrisoning soldiers and horses, it may not be cost-effective to build the weapons camp in a safe place and rely on transportation to transport resources.
"As the saying goes, fight against the outside world and keep the inside at bay."
"If we can't take advantage of the fact that there are no external enemies outside the Tang Dynasty, we can first resolve the internal chaos."
Li Chengqian faced Li Shimin and said, "Then when the foreign enemies arrive, it will be too late." >
Of course Li Shimin also recognized Li Chengqian's idea.
He pondered for a while, then raised his head and said, "What are you going to do? Do you have any ideas?"
Speaking of which.
Li Shimin suddenly paused, looked at Li Chengqian with strange eyes and said, "Are you planning to use Cui Yinghe as fishing bait?"
Li Chengqian was stunned for a moment and laughed out loud.
"Is Father so powerful now?"
Li Chengqian said: "My father already knows before I even say anything?"
"hehe."
Li Shimin smiled softly: "If I didn't know better, I would really have become a fool."
He was indeed confused at first.
I don't know what Li Chengqian wants to do.
Even when Li Chengqian put in so much effort to deal with Cui Yinghe.
He still didn't understand the situation somewhat.
He always felt that something was missing, but he didn't know where it was.
But now, after hearing Li Chengqian say this, he finally understood.
This guy had planned this step from the very beginning.
I'm just waiting to catch Cui Yinghe.
When Li Chengqian heard this, he scratched his head and smiled.
"I didn't mean not to tell my father."
"It's just that at that time, the idea was not mature enough."
"I can't even guarantee whether it will succeed in the end."
"After all, facing these rats hiding in the dark, it is really difficult to win steadily."
Li Chengqian said: "But the result is good, at least we captured this guy."
"Very good."
"You know it's good to plan things ahead."
Li Shimin praised him and then said: "And since you already have an idea, then press
Just do what you want."
"You can make full arrangements for this matter, and I will fully support you."
He said this.
Li Chengqian was relieved.
What he fears most is that he and Li Shimin cannot agree on their ideas.
After all, Li Shimin is the current emperor.
If he rejects his idea, no one can stop him.
"hey-hey."
"Then I'll go down and do some work."
"Father, please rest first..."
After saying this, Li Chengqian stepped out of the Manna Hall.
Looking at this guy's back.
Li Shimin slowly raised his head, turned to look at Eunuch Zhou and said, "Old Zhou, what do you think?"
"His Royal Highness is getting more and more powerful."
Eunuch Zhou smiled and said, "Even this kind of thing can be planned in advance."
"yes."
"Even I didn't expect that."
"How could he plan this plan so well?"
Li Shimin paused and said: "If we count, it seems that he started planning all this when Cui Yinghe sent people to assassinate him."
"I'm afraid Cui Yinghe doesn't know."
"Her actions will lead to her own destruction."
Eunuch Zhou nodded with deep approval and said: "His Highness has nothing wrong with you, it's just that he is too soft-hearted. Sometimes he really can't be cruel unless you force him a little."
When it comes to this.
Eunuch Zhou was also full of worry: "So your Majesty should give you more instruction."
What he called teaching was nothing more than asking Li Shimin to teach Li Chengqian how to be a superior.
Sometimes, he actually couldn't stand it.
Li Chengqian is simply unkind to the people around him.
Such as this time. He could obviously send experienced and capable generals like Gao Zhixing or Li Chongyi.
However.
He didn't.
It wasn't because he didn't want to send someone, it was because he was soft-hearted and felt that someone should stay at home with his wife and children, so he didn't find anyone.
Instead, they approached Zhang Xiao and Cheng Huailiang.
Moreover, Cheng Huailiang was the last one who had to wait so long for him.
If he had approached Li Chongyi and Gao Zhixing directly at the beginning.
Then Cui Yinghe would have been captured alive by Li Chengqian long ago.
Li Shimin also sighed helplessly and said: "This child is like this, there is nothing we can do."
"But this is also a good thing."
"Our generation has fought all the battles it has to fight."
"We in the Tang Dynasty also need a kind king who is gentle at heart and kind to everyone around him."
Li Shimin turned to look at Eunuch Zhou and said, "You should also prepare. When Cui Yinghe comes to Chang'an, some people will definitely be dishonest."
"No matter what, I just want a result."
"Can't let anyone sabotage his plan secretly."
"Especially Cui Yinghe can't run away or be rescued. Do you understand?"
"clear!"
Eunuch Zhou nodded and said seriously: "I promise that I will not let anyone ruin your Majesty's plan and His Highness's plan."
"Um."
"You go down and make arrangements first."
"yes!"
…
at the same time.
Li Chengqian on the other side also returned to the East Palace.
He rushed to the main hall with long strides. The moment he saw Su Qingling, he opened his arms and held her in his arms.
"Successful."
"I succeeded!"
Li Chengqian excitedly said to Su Qingling: "As long as things go smoothly, no one can stop the development of our Datang!"
