Everyone looked shocked when they heard the news.
Because I had just received the memorial from Hou Junji a few days ago, not only did he impeach the loyal Hou Yang Fan for disobeying the military order, but he also categorically accused Yang Fan of disregarding the life and death of His Highness the King of Wu and his opposition to surrender.
It’s only been a few days! It is unimaginable that the situation has changed so suddenly.
To behead an enemy general among tens of thousands of troops and rescue Li Ke safely is simply more incredible than wiping out tens of thousands of Tibetan troops.
Changsun Wuji even asked in shock: "Your Majesty, has this news been confirmed?"
Although he said so, in fact, he had no doubt in his mind. How could the urgent memorial sent through Datang Station be false?
Li Shimin didn't blame it, after all, he was shocked when he first received the news.
It can be said that during this expedition to Tubo, Yang Fan single-handedly destroyed a country, which was a great achievement.
He still has some headaches about how to reward Yang Fan when he comes back!
However, seeing that his elder brother-in-law is always deliberately targeting him, it seems that he needs to be punished.
Thinking of this, Li Shimin picked up the memorial and handed it to Changsun Wuji. At the same time, he said pointedly: "Wuji! The prime minister can support a boat, so why bother with a young man?"
"Your Majesty, I know my mistake!" Changsun Wuji was so shocked that he didn't dare to accept the memorial and identify the authenticity.
What's more important is that the two monarchs and ministers have known each other for decades, and His Majesty Li Er has never said such harsh words.
In the past, His Majesty Li Er turned a blind eye to the intrigues in the court, but now he actually warned him for Yang Fan. How could he not make Changsun Wuji shocked.
Seeing Changsun Wuji's hesitant look, Li Shimin's eyes flashed with a trace of unbearability, so he said, "Wuji, don't blame me for saying such harsh words. We are already old, how long can we last?"
"The court needs fresh blood, and the empire needs young talents. Yang Fan is a rare talent that is rare in a thousand years. With a little training, he can shoulder big responsibilities. The talent of the prime minister is not enough to be praised."
It's okay that Li Shimin didn't explain. This explanation shocked the whole room.
His Majesty Li Er has always been good at selecting talents and often gives opportunities to young talents.
Although he is willing to reuse young people, he always maintains a cautious attitude.
While re-employing, they are constantly beaten, lest these young officials have a smooth career and develop a arrogant mentality.
It is simply unheard of to praise a young man like this today.
Although everyone in the Political Hall has talents as prime minister and assistant, they are all victors who have gone through ups and downs and emerged from the cruel struggle of intrigues and intrigues.
Now Li Shimin gave such high praise to the young Yang Fan, how could they not be shocked.
Involuntarily, Changsun Wuji and others all fixed their eyes on the memorial in the hands of His Majesty Li Er.
Could it be that besides the battle report, there was something else written in this memorial?
But what on earth could make His Majesty Li Er so cautious and say such an enviable compliment?
When everyone was curious about the content of the memorial, Li Jing, who had never participated in court disputes, reminded:
"Your Majesty, although young people need to be encouraged, cultivate their confidence, and let them boldly do, think, and do...but they should not be praised too much to make them feel proud, otherwise it will bring disaster!"
Li Jing's words made Li Shimin slightly stunned, and he soon understood the implication of these words.
I thought that the people here were all the ministers I trusted the most, but I forgot for a moment that these people could be loyal to me, but they belonged to different camps, and they usually had a lot of intrigues.
When he said this just now, didn't he put Yang Fan on the fire, which was equivalent to killing him?
Because the more praise you give, the more people will be envious, jealous and hateful, and his uncle Changsun Wuji is one of them!
Only Li Jing, who stayed out of the matter, could see clearly, understand it best, and even understand it deeply.
Obviously, this military boss also developed a love for talents and could not bear to have Yang Fan, a young man, affected.
Li Shimin sighed secretly, he couldn't do whatever he wanted even if he was the emperor!
Because every word and every move will cause many chain reactions.
Some even began to miss the relaxing moments of chatting with Yang Fan without any dignity.
As the emperor, Li Shimin certainly knew in his heart that if all the ministers worked together, he, the emperor, would not be able to sleep.
But I felt very uncomfortable in my heart. Maybe I can only truly relax when I get along with Yang Fan!
Regarding Li Jing's words, Li Shimin did not comment, but he still handed the memorial in his hand to Li Jing: "Here, this is the memorial submitted by that boy Yang Fan. Let's circulate it and see what our loyal prince has come up with for the Tang Dynasty. What kind of method can be used to stabilize Tubo? After reading this, all my dear friends can come up with a summary."
Hearing this, Li Jing was not polite. He took the memorial from the chamberlain and read it carefully.
After a while, Li Jing read the memorial, then narrowed his eyes slightly, thought carefully, and handed it to Fang Xuanling...
In an instant, the political hall fell into silence again, with only the sound of reading memorials.
Fang Xuanling had no expression on her face after reading it...
I saw that the memorial was read one by one in the hands of Changsun Wuji and others, and was finally sent back to His Majesty Li Er.
Li Jing sighed softly and said sadly: "Your Majesty, I used to think that military is the most powerful weapon to conquer a country or a nation. Now after reading this memorial, I know that I am really old. It’s time to retire after success.”
"Such an astonishing and brilliant strategy was actually devised by a young man, which makes the old ministers feel ashamed. If this strategy comes to pass, it will be enough to stabilize the Tang Dynasty's border areas, and there will be no more dangers of sword fights."
Changsun Wuji was suddenly startled and looked at Li Jing in surprise.
Although he also admitted that Zuo Shuli's strategy was very clever, how could he let Li Jing say these words?
It's too exaggerated!
Who can be praised like this by Li Jing, who is cautious in his words and deeds? This is a huge praise!
It was just a strategy to govern and control the Tubo Kingdom. Could it be applied to the barbarians surrounding the Tang Dynasty? Soon, Changsun Wuji fell into deep thought.
Regarding this Tang military god who was good at protecting himself with wisdom and wisdom, although his illustrious military exploits made many people think that Li Jing was a martial artist, Changsun Wuji was well aware of his unfathomable wisdom, and his words were by no means unreasonable.
After thinking deeply for a while, Changsun Wuji was suddenly moved. He sighed secretly in his heart and looked a little gloomy.
It seems that he was so immersed in the intrigues in the court that he regressed a lot on the overall strategy and did not see the mystery in the first place.
Cultural invasion, Tubo people governing Tubo people, economic dependence...
The Tubo people learned the culture of the Tang Dynasty and spoke the language of the Tang Dynasty. The Tubo people relied on the Tang Dynasty for their food, clothing, housing and transportation...
All these things are terrifying to think about!
Although I don’t know how to implement it, if these things are accomplished, will the country of Tubo still exist in the future?
In the same way, these strategies can also be implemented on countries with good relations.
If this strategy is extended, within a few decades, the Tang Dynasty will be able to control all the surrounding countries without spending a single soldier, so that they will not dare to go west if they go east.
This is too unbelievable. This Yang Fan can actually come up with such a strategy. He is simply a monster.
Li Shimin spread out the memorial in his hand, couldn't help but take another look at it, smiled happily, and said, "What do you think, sir? Do you think I'm overly complimentary?"
"Your Majesty is wise!" All the ministers complimented in unison.
The contents of the memorial really shocked these old guys. This is no longer a question of Yang Fan's talent.
Being able to have such a vision and devise such a strategy is indeed worthy of His Majesty Li Er's words, "The talent of the prime minister is not worthy of praise."
Fang Xuanling and Li Ji looked at each other, smiling bitterly in their hearts.
I originally thought that although Yang Fan was talented, he was still young, short-sighted, and had a short temper. He would inevitably not be able to think things through when things happened. There was still a gap between him and the old officials like them. Who knew that they might have underestimated him!
However, he was a little relieved. After all, all the boys in his family had a close relationship with Yang Fan.
Changsun Wuji, however, had a different feeling. He even felt a sense of powerlessness and had some doubts. Even with his own help, could his son Changsun Chong really be better than Yang Fan?
But as long as there is a one in ten thousand chance, he can't let it go!
It is no longer realistic to continue to suppress or slander the contents of this memorial.
If it is too obvious, it will lose its magnanimity.
It has just caused His Majesty Li Er's displeasure. Moreover, His Majesty Li Er's appreciation of this memorial is obviously extraordinary. Of course, he cannot be so discerning.
However, Changsun Wuji was indeed an old fox. He came up with a countermeasure in a blink of an eye. He rolled his round eyes, raised his hand to His Majesty Li Er and said:
"Talents have emerged from generation to generation, and each has led the way for hundreds of years. I am happy that the empire has such talents, and congratulate Your Majesty for his discerning eye."
These words seemed to be really happy for His Majesty Li Er to have such a genius as Yang Fan.
