Is the so-called support from the former Sui ministers really what they advertised, because Wu Wang Li Ke has the blood of the former Sui Dynasty and wants to single-mindedly push Li Ke to the position of crown prince?
Maybe there are, but most of them are just for everyone's needs...
How many years has it been since the Sui Dynasty fell?
In the past, those old people and young people who were favored by the Yang family experienced the humiliation of national subjugation, but now high-ranking officials are still able to ride on horses, eat bells and pans, and enjoy peace. How could they ever think about the slightest benefit of the Yang family?
Now he is pretending to be a loyal minister and a countryman, vowing to help King Wu Li Ke ascend to the throne. Who believes it?
Among them are the Han family of Sanyuan and the Li family of Zhaojun...
Han Ai took a deep breath, the light in her eyes was deep, and she said in a deep voice: "My fair lady, a gentleman is very cowardly. If you don't get what you want, sleep hard and think about it. It's leisurely, tossing and turning... Since you can't get what you want, why not bear the pain and give up, so that your heart is clean?"
Since there is no hope of fighting for reserves, then retreat completely.
When you are constantly being disturbed by it, and you still know in your heart that it is impossible, then why should you hesitate and think about it, and still treat you as a big enemy in the eyes of others?
In Han Ai's view, this time's renovation of the East Market and this "supervision" position could allow Wu Wang Li Ke to completely separate from the old and young people of the former Sui Dynasty, and to the emperor, the prince, and the people of the world. Show your attitude.
We just want to be a quiet, wealthy and leisurely king, and we have no idea about the position of the Ninth Five Supreme Being!
In this way, no one will remember you...
Li Jingxuan disagreed.
He patted his thigh lightly and looked a little excited: "His Royal Highness is wise and decisive, and he is superior to others. Why should Han Boyu belittle himself like this? To put it bluntly, the prince is cowardly, disabled, and lacks the courage to rule the world; the king of Wei is fat and has a deep heart. He is private and does not have the courage of the Nine-Fiveth Supreme King; the King of Qi is stubborn, the King of Shu is dull, and the other kings are all young and have little knowledge. Only Your Highness is the future sage of the Tang Dynasty! At this time, although we should keep a low profile and keep quiet, When the time comes to rise, how can we extinguish our great ambitions and be willing to be inferior to others and give up the throne? What Han Boyu said is very inappropriate!"
Han Ai retorted: "Those who know the current affairs are heroes. How stupid is it to do something you know you can't do? You are not loyal to His Highness, but you want to put His Highness in danger. You are in danger of death anytime and anywhere!"
Knowing that there is no hope but still harboring extravagant thoughts is not persistence or courage, it is stupidity!
Li Jingxuan was so angry that his face turned red and he said angrily: "In ancient times, those who achieved great things must first strain their minds, strain their muscles and bones, starve their skin, deplete their body, and mess up their actions. Therefore, if you are tempted to endure, you have Benefit from what you can't do. Trapped in your heart, weighed by worries, and then act! Such a person has no fighting spirit and no ambition, how is he different from the common man in the market? "
Han Ai was also annoyed and glared angrily: "Li Jingxuan, how stupid are you! His Highness is not the eldest son, but also has the blood of the previous dynasty. How can Your Majesty depose the Crown Prince and replace him with His Highness? If you keep having delusional thoughts, not only will you never be able to To obtain the position of crown prince, you will still have to face His Majesty's precautions and the Crown Prince's suspicion. Have you forgotten how His Majesty's throne came about? It's okay to say that Your Majesty is still alive. Once His Majesty a hundred years later, no matter which of his legitimate sons sits on the throne, he will be the first to take the throne. The one to be eradicated is His Highness! In view of this, the Xuanwu Sect’s Yin, if we don’t get rid of His Highness, who can feel at ease?”
The example of His Majesty Li Er is right there!
With so many former Sui ministers supporting him, who dares to take Li Ke lightly? As long as they are not a fool, everyone knows that Li Ke must be eliminated before they can sit back and relax!
Li Jingxuan insisted on letting Wu King Li Ke compete for the throne. This was not for Li Ke's benefit, but to harm Li Ke!
If Li Ke continues to fight for the throne, he will definitely not end well...
Wu King Li Ke did not expect Li Jingxuan to be so excited, and quickly comforted him: "Jingxuan, please be patient!"
Li Jingxuan said angrily: "His Highness is so cowardly, which is beyond our expectation. I am extremely loyal and wholeheartedly support His Highness to aspire to be the supreme leader in the Ninth Five-Year Plan. However, today I found out that His Highness has been put in danger all the time, and I am filled with fear." , I apologize here."
He stood up and left the table, bowing to Li Ke to the ground.
Li Ke hurriedly said: "Why is Jingxuan doing this? I naturally know Jingxuan's good intentions. I am so lucky to have two people who can help and treat each other sincerely. Get up quickly!"
Li Jingxuan just stood up, but his expression was lonely. He shook his head and sighed: "I am in agitated mood and confused thinking today, so I will not have a long talk with His Highness. I will say goodbye and go back home. I hope Your Highness will take care of me."
After saying this, he insisted on leaving regardless of Li Ke's efforts to stay and Han Ai's dissuasion.
In the lobby, Li Ke looked melancholy and said nothing.
Han Ai and Li Jingxuan not only had a close relationship with Li Ke, but they were also the best among the younger generation of ministers who supported Li Ke. Now that they part ways in this way, how can Li Ke not be sad?
Looking at the world, everything is beneficial.
If there is any benefit, it will come, if there is no benefit, it will go away. How realistic...
But from now on, His Highness, the King of Wu, with a virtuous reputation, would repay this feeling of alienation from relatives and friends, and the withdrawal of supporters.
Apart from the desolation and loneliness in my heart, there was no trace of anger.
Time is also fate.
*****
The pool of water in Kunming is full of meritorious deeds during the Han Dynasty, and Emperor Wu's flag is in his eyes.
The weaving girl's silk threads are like the night moon, and the stone whale's scales are moving in the autumn wind.
During the Dali period, Du Fu lived in Chang'an. He praised the beautiful Kunming Pool in the southwest of Chang'an City.
Kunming Pool is located between Fengshui and Lishui. It was excavated during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. It was originally used to conquer the Kunming Kingdom. The pool is "forty miles around and 320 hectares wide". It has the functions of water supply, flood regulation and storage, and training water. It has many functions such as military, production of fish and turtles, simulating celestial phenomena, etc. However, by the Tang Dynasty, it had become a place for boating and recreation...
It's cold in spring, and the breeze blows across the lake, causing ripples.
Fang Jun stood on a high ground on the shore, tightened his cloak, and looked around to observe the terrain of Kunming Pool.
Beside him were officials from the Ministry of Works, the General Supervisor, and the Jingzhao Mansion.
His Majesty Li Er ordered the Naval Academy to be located in Chang'an, but Chang'an is located in Guanzhong. Although the eight rivers are densely surrounded by rivers, the rivers are narrow and the water is limited. How can it shoulder the important task of naval training?
Fang Jun then set his sights on Kunming Pool.
All the officials went to various places to measure the data, but Fang Jun and Ma Zhou were still standing where they were, looking at the vast water and long sky.
Ma Zhou, who was wearing ordinary clothes and was thin and thin, pointed to the vast lake and said: "The Records of the Three Qin Dynasty written by Xin of the Han Dynasty records that there is a spiritual marsh in Kunming Pool, which is called Shenchi. Emperor Yao once visited it when he was controlling the water. The boat is parked here, and the pond is connected to Bailuyuan. There were people fishing in Bailuyuan, and the fish broke off the fishing line and escaped with the hook. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty dreamed of a fish at night and begged him to take off the hook. The next day when he was playing in the pond, he saw one There was a hook attached to the big fish's mouth, so he took off the hook and line and let the big fish go. Three days later, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was playing in the pond again and got a pair of pearls on the edge of the pond. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty said This is the time when the fish returned its favor... Since then, Kunming Pool has gradually dethroned its role as a training ground for the navy and turned into a summer resort for the royal family."
Fang Jun turned around and glanced at Ma Zhou.
In the era when imperial power was supreme, when the emperor gave an order, it was a time of suffering for thousands of people. In order to resist the Xiongnu from the north, the First Emperor built the Great Wall with hundreds of millions of corpses; in order to achieve hegemony, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty overstretched the country's power like fishing in the lake, and countless Han family members buried their bones in the desert...
Even the Kunming Pool in front of us cost countless manpower and material resources when it was built. The result was an idea of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and it was also an idea of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to turn it into a royal garden.
Has anyone ever cared about the civilians who lost their lives for this? Has anyone ever cared about the people's fat and oil that have been wasted here?
He told himself a story for no reason. It seems that Ma Zhou, a stubborn and honest guy, is dissatisfied with his proposal to build large-scale barracks and other facilities by the Kunming Pool...
After thinking about it, Fang Jun felt that Ma Zhou should be given some knowledge of modern management. It was good to be considerate of the people, but it was not a good thing to blindly cut expenditures.
"Brother Ma, does he know the budget of this naval academy?"
Fang Jun asked with a smile.
Ma Zhou snorted and said coldly: "I've never heard of it. But Fangfu Yin has always been very courageous. Isn't it another astronomical figure?"
Fang Jun calls him "Brother Ma", and he calls him "Fang Fu Yin". Considering the good and close relationship between the two, Ma Zhou's bad mood is still clearly evident.
Fang Jun laughed and said, "A prize, a prize, a prize, Brother Ma is so complimentary."
Ma Zhou's face darkened, am I complimenting you? This shameless prodigal thing...
Not paying attention to Ma Zhou's unhappy expression, Fang Jun said to himself: "Five million strings!"
Ma Zhou took a breath!
The Naval Academy has been under operation in Jingzhao Mansion, and Ma Zhou didn't know much about the details. Hearing this number now, I can see Fang Jun's "prodigal" spirit!
First it was 20 million guan for the renovation of the east and west cities, and now it is 5 million guan for preparing to build the Naval Academy...
Ma Zhou was speechless and asked in confusion: "It is understandable that the reconstruction of the east and west cities requires 20 million yuan. After all, the large area of Nuozhou needs to be re-planned and tens of thousands of houses built. But how can a mere naval school use 50 million yuan?" Millions of dollars?"
Fang Jun asked instead, "Brother Ma just feels sorry that the court has to bear such huge expenses, but have you ever thought about where the money ends up going?"
