Datang: Time travel in two months, wait online, hurry up!

That is to learn from modern times, and all units need to subscribe to newspapers.

As for those officials who are above the ninth rank, they can subscribe to a separate copy.

"Isn't that still using the court's money to buy newspapers? The newspapers still lose money after calculation?"

Li Shimin nodded, but thought of another question.

Newspapers are bought by various yamen, but the money of the yamen belongs to the imperial court!

It is equivalent to the court spending its own money to buy its own newspaper!

"Does the emperor think that newspapers make money?"

Li Ke did not explain, but instead asked a question.

"Ok?"

Li Shimin was slightly taken aback.

"The biggest function of newspapers is to integrate and transmit information, so that people can know interesting things in the world without going out."

"At the same time, once the imperial court has something to let everyone know, it can use the influence of the newspaper to spread the news in the shortest possible time."

"So the meaning of a newspaper is not to make a profit. Erchen's Datang Daily is still losing money every day, regardless of the daily sales of 5 copies."

Li Ke explained to Li Shimin that the main purpose of the newspaper is not to make money.

"I see!"

Hearing this, Li Shimin finally figured it out.

Once the sales volume of the newspaper increases, it will be sold all over the prefectures and counties of Datang.

A newspaper, the world knows!

As long as this effect is achieved, what's the point of losing money?

Moreover, the content in the newspaper can also be controlled!

If you want to let everyone know what information, write what information in the newspaper.

Information that you don't want everyone to know will never appear in the newspaper.

At that time, the mouthpiece of the entire world will be under control.

Only then did Li Shimin understand what Li Ke had in mind!

Wanting to understand this, he couldn't help but take a deep look at Li Ke.

He still wondered why Li Ke suddenly came up with two novel newspapers.

And not making money, or even losing money!

Li Ke knows that he never does business that loses money

But now he understands, compared to controlling the mouthpiece of the world, what is the loss of this little money?

It's just that Li Ke can come up with a way to use newspapers to control the mouthpiece of the world, which makes him both admired and surprised.

What I admire is that Li Ke is very aware of the importance of controlling the mouthpiece of the world, and knows how to use public opinion.

And very innovatively invented something like a newspaper that can quickly control the mouthpiece of the world.

Surprisingly, Li Ke has been planning and steadily implementing his plan!

He now believes that Li Ke has already made a plan for the next step from the moment he said that he wanted to get rid of the five surnames and seven Wangs.

Making paper and printing books is just his plan, the real purpose is to enter the Ministry of Rites and occupy a high position.

In this way, a newspaper can be established reasonably.

He even felt that the official newspaper of the Tang Dynasty by the Ministry of Rites was just a cover, just to block the guns of Li Ke's Datang Daily!

If all of this is Li Ke's plan, then Li Ke's thoughts and plans are too meticulous!

"You are really well-intentioned, and you have made so many preparations to control public opinion."

Li Shimin shook his head involuntarily, looked at Li Ke and said.

"Erchen just wants to use newspapers to advertise his products, and has no other ideas."

Li Ke smiled slightly and expressed his attitude to Li Shimin.

Li Shimin was not surprised to see through the role of newspapers.

After all, it's all said and done, it would be a surprise if Li Shimin still couldn't understand!

But looking at Li Shimin's attitude, it seems that he doesn't mind this matter too much.

This made him feel relieved.

Just as Li Ke felt, Li Shimin actually had no idea about this matter.

Logically speaking, what Li Ke did was actually threatening his rule.

But as an emperor through the ages, his control over the world and the court is also very high.

He has absolute confidence that Li Ke will not pose a threat to him.

Even now Li Ke seems to have a great influence on the court ministers and the six departments.

But as long as he is alive, those ministers and the Sixth Ministry will only be the first target of allegiance to him!

Li Ke, at best, was their second target of allegiance.

What made him feel more emotional was the 5.8 comparison between Li Ke and his other princes.

He couldn't help thinking that if he died in the future, Li Chengqian would become the throne.

Did Li Chengqian really beat Li Ke?

Honestly, he shook his head inwardly.

Even if Li Chengqian is the emperor, he holds the power of the world.

But he thinks that Li Chengqian's chance of winning is very slim!

He thought about it again, what if another prince came to the throne?

Li Tai?

Although he is somewhat talented, compared with Li Ke, he is far behind.

As for the other princes, Li Zhi is still young.

Although Li Yin has matured a lot recently, Li Yin is Li Ke's younger brother and must support Li Ke.

Not to mention the other princes.

But in short, no matter who ascends the throne in the end, a powerful prince like Li Ke will not be allowed to exist.

So there must be a battle between them, just like he did with his elder brother Li Jiancheng and his third younger brother Li Yuanji.

But none of this would have happened if Li Ke had been the next emperor.

But Li Ke's identity and bloodline doomed this matter to be very difficult!

Li Shimin only felt that his mind was in chaos.

Any major court affairs would not allow him to do this, but the only issue concerning the succession of the throne left him wondering what to do.

"Perhaps it was the same with the father at that time?"

At this time, Li Shimin suddenly thought of Li Yuan.

Perhaps, at that time, Li Yuan's heart was as contradictory and entangled as he was.

PS: Fourth more! .

Chapter 124 Send out red envelopes!Another famous story through the ages!

In fact, Li Shimin knew very well that there were two ways to solve this problem.

First, directly make Li Ke the prince.

In this way, Li Ke himself has talent and strength, and he can succeed to the throne as a matter of course if he becomes the prince.

And he believed that with Li Ke's ability, he would be able to firmly control the court and the world like him in the future.

And the other princes can't pose a threat to him, and can still enjoy the glory and wealth in peace.

Second, still protect Li Chengqian as the prince.

If this is the way, then he needs to do one thing now.

Do your best to suppress Li Ke!

It is expressly forbidden that all princes and nobles have any interest in Li Ke.

Li Ke was dismissed from all positions, and he was expelled from Chang'an City and sent to a fiefdom. He will never be allowed to return to Chang'an City in this life.

There are only these two methods, if neither of these two methods is selected.

Then after his death, there will be a battle between Li Ke and Li Chengqian!

By then, Datang, which has only been stable for decades, may fall apart again because of this.

Brothers kill each other, and the world is in chaos.

This is undoubtedly what he does not want to see.

But the second choice is too cruel for Li Ke.

As a father, Li Ke is also his son!

And he is the most talented son of all sons!

At the same time, Li Ke is also the favorite of all his sons.

Treating Li Ke like this, as a father, he can't do it no matter what.

Besides, based on his understanding of Li Ke.

Even if Li Ke is assigned to the fiefdom, Li Ke will not be captured without a fight.

With Li Ke's talent, maybe he will develop silently in the fief.

Then after his death, he will rise up and overthrow Li Chengqian's rule!

So, after much deliberation, it seems that there is only the first way.

But in this way, it is not fair to Li Chengqian, the eldest son.

Moreover, Li Chengqian is the son of Empress Changsun.

Empress Changsun has followed him since she was a child and has experienced a lot of hardships.

If he makes Li Ke the crown prince, he doesn't know how to face the eldest grandson empress!

"The throne is cruel, maybe there has never been fairness or unfairness."

A flash of understanding flashed in Li Shimin's eyes.

He thought of himself, obviously more capable and more credited than his elder brother Li Jiancheng.

But because the eldest brother is the eldest son, he was established as the prince.

It's also unfair to him.

"Forget it, you have passed this level. As for other levels, it depends on your own ability."

Li Shimin shook his head and stopped thinking about these things.

He decided to let nature take its course, everything depends on Li Ke's own ability.

Anyway, for him, Li Ke's status as a concubine and the blood of the Sui Dynasty royal family are no longer a problem.

After all, Li Ke is his son, his surname is Li not Yang, and he still has his blood in him!

Even if Li Ke ascended the throne, he would still be the emperor of the Tang Empire, not the emperor of the Sui Dynasty.

The Sui Dynasty has long been buried in history.

But this is just his idea. If other ministers want to accept Li Ke's identity, it depends on Li Ke's own ability.

If you can do it, you can do it, if you can’t do it, you can’t do it, each depends on his ability!
