Chapter 25 Investigate the Son of Heaven? I will too!
After her disguise was revealed, the woman in a green robe did not panic at all and bowed to Lin Nuo calmly and calmly.
"Senior is joking, the skin is just an external object, and beauty and ugliness are just clouds. Concubine Xuan covers her true appearance, just to make it easier to travel around the world!"
"Feixuan?" Li Shimin raised his eyebrows when he heard the woman calling herself, and asked quickly: "Are you the outstanding disciple of Cihang Jingzhai, Master Feixuan?"
"it's me!"
Shi Feixuan nodded in response, and then looked at Lin Nuo respectfully.
"Senior seems to have some misunderstandings about Feixuan's sect, but can you give Feixuan some time? I have some questions that I want to ask Brother Li!"
"up to you!"
Lin Nuo waved his hand carelessly. Anyway, this contemporary saint of Cihang Jingzhai was right in front of him, and he couldn't run away even if he wanted to.
With good luck, I met Wanwan first, and the secret method of the Heavenly Demon of the Yinkui Sect has been found. Now I met the master concubine Xuan of Cihang Jingzhai, but I didn't know that this woman had received some inheritance of the Cihang Sword Code.
Seeing that Lin Nuo had no intention of taking action against her for the time being, Master Feixuan pondered for a moment and said in a concentrated voice: "Brother Li, Feixuan wants to ask Brother Li for advice on how to be a king."
Li Shimin's heart beat wildly when he heard this. He knew what kind of sect Cihang Jingzhai was in the world, and he also knew the style of doing things in this sect.
Since Shi Feixuan, the contemporary saint of Cihang Jingzhai, asked him for advice on how to be an emperor, it is obvious that he, Li Shimin, has fallen under Cihang Jingzhai's discernment and has the preliminary qualifications to be an emperor in the future!
Taking a deep breath, Li Shimin said: "In the eyes of the people, the way to be a king is to know how to select talents and appoint talents. Otherwise, no matter how good the national policy is, it will not be implemented effectively, and the people will not be able to implement it in the right way. Everything will be ruined."
It’s all in vain.”
Master Feixuan nodded noncommittally, and then continued to ask: "How to achieve great peace after a great chaos?"
"In the eyes of the people, the country is easier to govern after the chaos. This is like a hungry person no longer being picky about food. As long as he can survive, this is a great gift!"
"If a king is willing to set an example again, implement policies against the bad government of the previous dynasty, seek governance with tranquility, eliminate extravagance and waste, promote culture and virtue, and neglect corvee and underpay taxes, he will surely work together to achieve great governance."
After Li Shimin finished speaking, he did not immediately look at Shi Feixuan's reaction. Instead, he secretly observed Lin Nuo's attitude.
Compared to Cihang Jingzhai who was behind Shi Fei Xuan, Li Shimin actually valued Lin Nuo more, a great master who could form an army by one person and take the head of an enemy commander with thousands of troops.
The Li family has a good foundation and has been keeping a low profile. Whether it is soldiers or money and food, they have already prepared enough. The only thing missing is that among the clan, there is a strong master with strong martial arts who can intimidate all the petty disciples.
.
Of course, if a great master like Lin Nuo could sit in his Li family, in Li Shimin's opinion, he would be at least 80% sure of conquering the world!
It's a pity that Grand Master Lin Nuo didn't respond at all to his answer and kept drinking wine leisurely. This made Li Shimin feel a little frustrated and didn't know where to put his efforts in order to win the favor of the Grand Master.
"Senior, is there anything wrong with Shimin's answer?" Li Shimin finally couldn't hold back and asked the doubts in his heart.
Lin Nuo smiled and shook his head indifferently, "Ignore the other things for now, I have a question, let me ask you!"
Lin Nuo also became interested and wanted to see what the future Taizong of Tang Dynasty was capable of.
"If you were Yang Guang, would you be able to build the Grand Canal? Would you be able to conduct an expedition to Goryeo?"
Li Shimin was stunned for a moment and subconsciously blurted out, but he definitely wouldn't.
After all, everyone now knows that the Sui Dynasty is about to perish, and that the root of the country's destruction lies in the Grand Canal and the brutal military expedition to Goryeo. This is almost universally recognized, and it will definitely be written like this in future history books.
But when the words came to his lips, Li Shimin finally held back.
He is not stupid, on the contrary, he is one of the smartest people compared to most people in the world.
Since the Grand Master specifically asked this question, it is obvious that what he wants to hear is not the so-called commonplace talk, but wants to hear different evaluations from other aspects.
The next moment, Li Shimin put himself into the role of Yang Guang and began to think about what he should do if he were Yang Guang in order to maintain the emperor's authority and rule over the entire country.
Finally, he made a decision.
"Senior, if Shimin were Yang Guang, if nothing happens, Shimin would still be able to build the Grand Canal, and Shimin would definitely be able to fight against Korea!"
After the words fell, Li Shimin observed Lin Nuo's attitude nervously, but the other party's expression was still calm and there was no reaction. This made him a little undecided. Could it be that his answer still did not meet the other party's intention?
"reason!"
But then, the faint voice of the Grand Master came to his ears. These two plain words immediately made Li Shimin feel happy. It was obvious that he had made the right bet, otherwise the Grand Master in front of him would not have asked him why.
.
"Not to mention Goryeo, when it sent troops to occupy the Liaodong region, there were faint signs of an emerging power. It is said that there is no room for others to sleep on the side of the couch. For such evil neighbors who have deployed heavy troops in the Liaodong region and are eyeing the Central Plains territory, we will not fight.
It’s not enough to show the country’s prestige!”
"An attack may cost a lot of manpower and material resources, but at the very least, it can make the Liaodong border stable for decades or even hundreds of years, or even longer. Anyone who is not stupid and incompetent will probably choose to declare war on Goryeo!"
"As for the Grand Canal, it is indeed a huge project that consumes people and money, but its role is also extremely huge. Apart from anything else, the transportation of grain from the south to the north is enough to solve the food shortage situation in the north and can benefit
There are millions or even tens of millions of people in the north!"
"And..." At this point, Li Shimin hesitated a little, but gritted his teeth and continued: "And with this grand canal, which runs through the north and south, the imperial army can enter the southern territory within a few days. For solving the problem
The situation of separatism among clans and clans in various places has all the benefits and no harm!"
"In the eyes of the people, Yang Guang has a very powerful strategic vision. His vision is definitely beyond that of most emperors in history. But although his vision is strong, his skills and ability to handle government affairs are still too poor. A typical example of high vision and low hand.
Forcibly turning a great achievement that has benefited thousands of people into a state of national subjugation that is angry and resentful!"
As soon as these words came out, Lin Nuo, who had been unresponsive until now, couldn't help but turn his attention to Li Shimin.
This future Tang Prince, Tian Khan, is really extraordinary!
