Datang: Only by resisting the decree can we become stronger

Page 566

"Relying on my status as a prince, I foolishly chose to be an enemy of Li Qiu."

"But as a result, Li Qiu's achievements are getting bigger and bigger."

"The authority is getting higher and higher."

"Not only became my number one military general in the Tang Dynasty, but also became the right servant of Shangshu."

"How about them, how are they doing now?"

"Oh, my third brother."

"The biggest shortcoming is that you are too self-righteous."

"Now that Xiao Yu is gone, who else in the court will support him?!"

"By the way, teacher, what should we do next?"

At this time, Cen Wenwen thought for a while, and said slowly: "It's just as your Highness said."

"Now this Xiao Yu has been dismissed."

"Given his advanced age, it may be difficult for him to return to Chang'an in this lifetime."

"This time, the blow to Wu Wangfu is also very big."

"However, there are still quite a few officials who follow King Wu."

"There are also people who are available."

"Didn't the minister tell His Royal Highness before that don't care about the huge expenses and expenses of the Literature Museum?"

"Now it seems that it's time to present this topography to the Holy One."

"And with this, your highness will be further enhanced by your momentum."

Chapter 825

Listening to Cen Wenwen's words, Wei Wang Li Tai also nodded.

"What the teacher said is very true."

"I've been waiting for this day for a long time."

"Hmph, just look at how proud the crown prince was when he acted as an agent for the government a few days ago."

"It's really as if he himself succeeded to the throne."

"In just half a month, look at how many messy decisions he made."

"Originally, I was waiting for my father to return and reprimand him."

"But I don't think my father is indifferent."

"People say that my father and my mother dote on me."

"But in essence, I still favor the prince more."

Cen Wenwen smiled at this time.

"Your Highness, since you have already said it."

"Since he is the crown prince and the heir apparent of a country, he should be supported by the emperor and empress."

"Regarding this matter, I think His Highness should continue to devote himself to this matter."

"At that time, the best result will be to rule by doing nothing."

……

Two days later, Wei Wang Li Tai found an excellent vacancy.

To Li Shimin who was in a good mood, he presented his book "Kuo Di Zhi".

"Father, this includes 550 and five volumes of topography, including 550 volumes of the main text and five volumes of the preface."

"It takes the states of the Tang Dynasty as a unit, and describes the prefectures, places, names, mountains and rivers, cities, historic sites, myths and legends, and historical records of each state..."

"This book is also a piece of filial piety from my son."

"Specially dedicated to the prosperity of my Tang Dynasty and the eternal achievements of my father and emperor."

"To repay the kindness of father, emperor and mother for nurturing and doting on the child."

After Wei Wang Li Tai, there were naturally several famous Confucianists who participated in the compilation, and they praised it together.

"Your Majesty, this "Kuo Di Zhi" compiled by His Royal Highness King Wei."

"According to my comparison of the Ten Dao Dao of Tang Dynasty, there are 350 eight states and 550 counties."

"A total of 18 words."

"It also combines the compilation methods of the two books "Hanshu? Geography" and Gu Yewang's "Yu Dizhi" to create a new framework for geography books."

"It has set a precedent in this area, which is quite rare and precious."

"This book has extensive references and preserves many precious materials in the geography books of the Six Dynasties."

"For future generations, Qianqiu also has a great achievement..."

Looking at the carefully compiled Kuo Topography in front of him.

Li Shimin is also Longyan Dayue.

"Okay, King Wei, your filial piety."

"I am very satisfied."

"And the topography compiled by your Wei Palace is a set of very precious books, whether for the country or the people."

"You have done a good job, and you have lived up to my expectations for you to open a library."

"It's also a good start for the other princes."

"I have to reward you this time."

As he said that, Li Shimin immediately decreed that this set of topography should be stored in the imperial secret palace of Zangshu Pavilion.

At the same time, Li Tai, king of Wei, was given ten thousand pieces of things and ten thousand stones.

Li Tai was named the governor of Yangzhou and the governor of Yuezhou.

Governor of Chang, Hai, Run, Chu, Shu, Lu, Hao, Shou, She, Su, Hangzhou, Xuan, Dongmu, Nanhe and other sixteen prefectures, including Yangzhou military governors.

In addition, he also took the post of General Zuo Wuhou and the post of Shepherd of Yongzhou.

Yongzhou refers to Jingzhao Mansion, which is the land under the jurisdiction of the capital of the Tang Dynasty.

This Yongzhou pastor is also a vain position that represents far more than power.

Nominally, Chang'an City and its surrounding areas are all within Li Tai's jurisdiction.

This series of rewards is not light.

Everyone in Wei Wangfu was naturally happy.

But compared to the thriving Wei Wang Mansion, Wu Wang Li Ke's side was so deserted that it couldn't be more deserted.

After Prime Minister Xiao Yu left Beijing.

The last group of officials gathered around him also left indifferently.

There are only three or two big cats and kittens left around Li Ke.

It is far from being able to compare with the time of King Shu back then.

And the starting point of all this is when Li Ke had a bad relationship with Li Qiu, who was still the owner of the tavern at that time.

On the other side, in the Prince's East Palace.

After hearing a series of rewards from King Wei Li Tai, Li Chengqian naturally felt a deep sense of uneasiness in his heart.

Subsequently, this uneasiness turned into extreme anger and resentment.

"Huh, he, King Wei, is nothing more than leading a group of scholars to open a library and compile a book."

"How did you get such a reward from your father?"

"Including the state capitals awarded today, the fief of King Wei already has as many as 33 states."

"He is a person who can't even ride a horse, what can he use to supervise the military affairs of the states?"

"And what will you take to lead General Zuo Wuhou?"

"And that Yongzhou Mu is even more inexplicable."

"Could it be that the whole Chang'an city under the feet of the emperor has become that Li Tai's territory?!"

Hearing the prince's anger, the courtiers of the Eastern Palace sighed one after another.

At the same time, he echoed the prince and scolded the king of Wei.

At this time, Du Zhenglun shook his head slightly, and said comfortingly, "Your Highness, about the Kuo Dizhi presented by the King of Wei."

"The minister and the others also took a closer look."

"From the perspective of this book alone, it is indeed full of quotations, novel in layout, and quite insightful."

"It's only been a year since His Majesty's order to recruit people from all over the world and open a literature museum."

"It is obvious that this set of books has been compiled a long time ago, and it is just waiting for an appropriate time to dedicate it to His Majesty."

"But then again, no matter when this topography was compiled?"

"Among them, how much power did King Wei exert?"

"This achievement is all attributed to King Wei."

"Your Majesty's great award to the King of Wei also has the meaning of putting pressure on you and the princes."

"This is what the minister and others have advised Your Highness many times earlier."

"Loyalty and filial piety alone are not enough."

"You still need to make political achievements that belong to your Highness."

This Du Zhenglun, as the current prince's young teacher.

He is also loyal to Prince Li Chengqian.

But how many are young and old-fashioned.

His "teaching" can only make Li Chengqian even more upset.

Can't hear it at all.
