"Better than opening up borders and lands, it can be left for thousands of years in history."

Li Shimin's comment is extremely serious. A mere foreign rice seed actually pulled it to such a height, and Li Su's contributions suddenly rose.

However, Li Shimin did not exaggerate the words, but was very pertinent and objective.

The contribution Li Su made was indeed better than the creation of territory.

The soldiers opened up the territory and swept the world, allowing the monarchs and ministers of the Tang Dynasty to obtain vast land, allowing the people to gain an incomparable sense of national pride, and allowing the neighboring countries to respect and surrender. For the emperor with great talent, this is the realm that he dreamed of throughout his life. If he can really do this, he can wake up laughing in his dreams, and he can use any posture and expression he likes in front of the Taimiao to comfort his ancestors and show off his achievements. Of course, Taishan Fengshan and other things are the proper meanings in the title.

However, no matter how vast land is captured or how great the achievements are made, any wise monarch will immediately calm down after joy. They are very clear that land and achievements are empty and unrealistic. If their generation is defeated, perhaps the next generation will lose a foolish monarch. After a thousand years, dynasties will change, which are probably the reasons. No one can guarantee that the descendants of emperors are as wise as themselves. As long as one of them has a foolish monarch, the amount of possessions they have saved will be lost. Therefore, no matter how much land they have captured, no matter how prosperous the prosperous times they see in front of them, in the eyes of truly wise emperors, they are just illusions. In other words, even emperors cannot guarantee how many years they have owned their property rights, from dozens to hundreds, and there will be a day to lose them.

But what about the rice seeds discovered by Li Su?

It is different from the land it has been built. It can last forever. Food is the vitality of a regime or even a country. In this era dominated by agriculture, grain output almost determines the strength of national strength, determines whether the national strategy is on offensive or defensive, and determines the rise and fall of a dynasty. It can be said that it is the cornerstone for consolidating the rule of the emperor.

A very simple truth is that people who have food will never rebel because there is no need to take this risk.

With the foundation of grain, the entire Tang Dynasty's strategy will be re-formed, and it can even be considered to accelerate the speed of external plunder and capture in the next few decades. As long as the country continues to expand, more and more land can be cultivated. If the new rice seeds are introduced, the grain output will also increase. Then, it will continue to expand, and continue to grow grain, and it will be bigger and bigger like a snowball, forming a huge virtuous cycle.

As long as the emperors within a few generations are not too mentally retarded, the Tang Dynasty's country has not been a problem for three to five hundred years. When it develops to its peak, even if the emperor is really a foolish monarch and a prodigal son, it is very difficult to defeat it in such a huge country and a wealthy treasury family. It will be a very difficult thing to defeat it for two or three generations to see the downward direction.

Even if the country is defeated and the dynasty has changed, the new rice seeds that have been promoted to the public have become popular. If the country is destroyed, the food will not die. Even if there are pessimistic ideas, the Tang Dynasty will no longer exist in a few years. If it is another dynasty, the people of the people still have to bring bowls to eat. Every time they hold the bowl, talking about the seeds of the new grain, the name Li Shimin cannot avoid it anyway. This is the political achievement of the Zhenguan Dynasty. After thousands of years, it doesn’t matter how many dynasties have changed. What’s important is that in the Zhenguan Dynasty, the Emperor once issued an edict in the Zhenguan Dynasty of the Tang Dynasty. From then on, the Zhenguan rice and agricultural science specializing in crops were found. Perhaps from then on, the people did not go hungry.

From this perspective, as the emperor, Li Shimin gained the glory of Li Su, and he had a good reputation for his future generations that have been celebrated throughout the ages. Therefore, Li Shimin promoted Li Su's contribution this time so high, even overshadowed the territory. Because this contribution was shared by Li Su and Li Shimin. If it was underestimated, how should he be concluded in historical books in the future? How to highlight his wise and magical martial arts?

Li Su has no mistakes, but has made contributions. So, Li Ji’s problem is here.

"Your Majesty, since Li Su has made a contribution, why did he still lock him in Dali Temple?" Li Ji said in confusion.

Li Shimin sneered: "I can't blame me for this. He took the initiative to ask him to continue to lie to the prison of Dali Temple."

Li Ji was surprised and said, "Take it on his own initiative? He is crazy?"

Li Shimin said lightly: "Although he has made contributions, he has indeed destroyed the marriage. Now Tubo Prime Minister Lu Dongzan is promoting it everywhere, saying that my Tang Dynasty has treacherous ministers, and everyone in the Tubo delegation is indignant. Lu Dongzan said that he will settle accounts with Li Su. What consequences do you think if I release Li Su at the moment?"

Li Ji was stunned, and then evil spirit suddenly appeared on Wen Wen's face.

"Dare to find my nephew's bad luck, I tore those messes apart!"

Li Shimin glanced at him squintedly: "Then the nations were divided, and the war continued to stop, causing the lives to be ruined, and the war was rampant, huh?"

Li Ji stopped, then snorted helplessly, and said nothing.

Li Shimin sighed, looked at the sky far outside the hall, and said lightly: "The person who tied the bell is still needed to untie the bell. There is still a mess at the family of Wangdi Jiangxia. These are all picked up by Li Su, so naturally he will still solve them. If it cannot be solved, Li Su can't forgive him easily, and the Tang Dynasty may also face a war..."

Li Ji was shocked and said in a lost voice: "Li Suchuang's disaster is so serious?"

Li Shimin showed hesitation and sighed for a long time: "Now I don't even know if what he did this time is considered a disaster. Perhaps, it is a blessing or a disaster for the Tang Dynasty... Yesterday, Li Su and I reported to each other in the Ganlu Palace. If what he said was true, for the Tang Dynasty, for the country of the Tang Dynasty, I am worth a fight for this fierce battle!"

******************************************************************************************

Li Su was still at Dali Temple comfortably and comfortably in front of the old man. He didn't know what was wrong with him. He seemed to have a bad taste. There were so many servants and maids in the family who didn't do anything, but he liked to squat in prison to call the prison guards. Seeing them looking helpless and angry but not afraid to speak, he didn't like him and couldn't get rid of his unlucky appearance, he felt very happy and his life was extremely fulfilling.

After squatting in the prison for four days, Li Su had a strong urge to retire in the prison. Apart from being a little unfree, it was simply perfect. Of course, the prisoners of Dali Temple obviously didn't think so. During the days when Li Su moved in, the prisoners were almost crazy. It was said that it was nothing to treat Li Su as the uncle's servant, and it was delicious and delicious. However, the uncle Li in the prison was too picky about food and drink, which was outrageous.

The food must taste delicious, with both meat and vegetable, and the saltiness is light and moderate. Not only that, the dishes for serving dishes are also particular. Meat dishes are served with white dishes and vegetarian dishes with green dishes. Each meal has two meat dishes and three vegetarian dishes. It must be spread out in the shape of plum blossoms. There is a jar of wine in the middle of the plum blossoms. Each dish has its place for each dish, so you can't make any mistakes. A new prison guard doesn't understand the rules and accidentally puts the dishes a little messy. Li Su turned his back and overturned the table. The prison guards had to laugh with him and make another table for him.

Life is like this, what is the so-called imperial hegemony, and the so-called success and fame, compared with the leisure in the prison?

Lu Dongzan, the great prime minister of Tubo outside, advocated that he would settle the accounts with Li Su, but he was an international friend. The imperial government had no choice but to hide from him for the time being, and by the way, he thought of a way to completely ruin the matter of marriage with Tubo, so that the real monkey... The prince and Princess Wencheng finally got married, and by the way, he honestly sent the real rice seeds and farming experts to the Tang Dynasty.

It is really hard to think about the solution. Li Su understands the danger of this matter. No matter what action the Tang Dynasty does, it means a change in the eyes of the Tubo delegation. The change shows that the Tang Dynasty is not honest, and Lu Dongzan's reaction must be extremely fierce. If it continues to develop, it may really order the Tubo army on the border to advance into the Tang Dynasty, and a war will begin.

Li Su didn't want things to end like this. It was a situation where both sides suffered losses, and the lives of the children of Guanzhong could not withstand the troubles.

However, the rice seeds in Zhenla Kingdom must not be given up. This is a big thing that benefits all the best. Li Su rarely does a good thing that benefits the country and the people. He doesn't want to die before the matter begins. It is a trivial matter to lose face, and it is the most regrettable that he cannot fill the people's stomachs.

Things just fell into a vicious cycle. Tubo Songtsen Gampo was determined to win Princess Wencheng, but Zhenla Kingdom had something that the Tang Dynasty needed more urgently. On one side was the possible war, and on the other side was the good deeds of the people of the Tang Dynasty who ate one more ration, one evil and one good, and the left and right were separated. No matter what choice was made, it would inevitably be impossible to avoid offending the other side.

What Li Su has to do now is to come up with a way, one that has the best of both worlds and a bear's paw.

However, Li Su is just a mortal after all, and what can he do if he is such a knot that even the Jade Emperor can do? After thinking about it for four days, his mind hurts so much that he still has no clue.

…………

…………

Li Su is in prison these days, and there are many people coming to visit him. Xu Mingzhu and Dongyang will not talk about it. They will come every morning. The two girls seem to have discussed it. The visit time is perfectly staggered, just like queuing outside. One just left reluctantly, and the other comes one after another. He is the same cares about his well-being and the same affection. Li Su is so moved that he wants to persuade them to move in.

In addition to Xu Mingzhu and Dongyang, there are also Wang brothers and Cheng Chumo and other playboys. Only when people are in trouble can they clearly see who is a friend of drinking and meat and who is a confidant in life. Li Su feels very pleased. At least he has a good view of others. All friends who are quite friendly on weekdays have come. Even Fang Yiai, who was slapped by him, came. Everyone talked and laughed, and completely forgot about the little unhappiness at the time.

Unfortunately, Li Zhi did not come. Cheng Chumo told Li Su that in order to plead for him and asked his father to see him, Li Zhi knelt outside the Ganlu Hall for an hour that night. It was a winter night and the wind was cold. Li Zhi later went back and had a high fever and he was half asleep and half awake in a daze. He had not seen him until today. The imperial physicians in the palace were extremely anxious.

Li Su was silent for a long time after hearing this, and was deeply moved by this little brat.

In the past, I always thought that Li Zhi was just a child, with both advantages and disadvantages in his personality. His shortcomings and advantages were also prominent, such as cowardice, indecision, etc. Although Li Su treated him well, he was still very dissatisfied with him. He always felt that he lacked aura. He looked timid and shook his presence in front of Li Shimin. He was so arrogant that Li Shimin was too late to beat him to death. How could he consider choosing this cowardly and timid child as the crown prince? This is also what Li Su felt most troubled after he stood in the team.

But after knowing that Li Zhi knelt in the cold wind for an hour to plead for him and froze himself, Li Su suddenly realized that the little kid in his impression had actually grown up. He had already had his own ideas, had the responsibility of a man, and had the passion for his friends.

After Li Zhi's righteousness reached out to help him, Li Su knew that he had been firmly tied to him in his life. It was considered light to say that "sharing honor and disgrace" was light, and it could be said that "sharing life and death".

On the fifth day, guests came to visit Li Su in prison.

This guest is considered a rare guest, British Duke Li Ji.

Li Ji came in a low-key manner, and came alone in contemplation, frowned constantly in the dark prison aisle. The general siegeed the city and fought for the whole life, but he had never been to the cell, and his expression was very uncomfortable.

The jailer who was leading the way was trembling, as if he was a translator who led the Japanese into the village, bowed his back and smiled with a pleasing smile on his face.

Walking to Li Su's prison, Li Ji didn't say a word, but waved his hand lightly, and the prison guard disappeared like a general amnesty.

Li Su was lying on the soft new mattress and was already detached from the body and was about to fall asleep. Suddenly, he heard the movement outside the prison door. Li Su couldn't help but open his eyes, and his eyes shot over like a cold dart, intending to see who was trying to kill and dare to disturb his dreams. Then he saw Li Ji standing quietly outside the prison door at a glance.

Li Su was shocked, hurriedly got up and saluted Li Ji.

"Uncle Li, why did you come to such a place? It's too unlucky. It's not suitable for you to come, and there is no reason why the elders condescend to see the younger generation. It's really a shame."

Li Ji didn't say anything, but his eyes stared at Li Su's face, from his hair to his eyebrows, from his nose to his lips, he carefully looked through any small details on Li Su's face.

Li Su was a little furious when Li Ji's eyes stared at him, and he felt that the hair was blowing up behind him. Li Ji's eyes were too terrible, and the meaning was very rich, as if it was regretful, nostalgic, and sad. All kinds of emotions were revealed on his face, causing the muscles on his face to distort and deform, which seemed very terrifying.

Li Su was frightened and wanted to run away for the first time. As soon as he turned around, he immediately gave up this unrealistic idea.

He forgot that he was in prison, and in theory, he couldn't run half a foot away.

"Uh, Uncle Li, are you... okay?" Li Suqiang said with a smile.

Li Ji still stared at his face and murmured for a long time: "It looks so much like it! I felt familiar when I first saw you. It turned out that it was not an illusion..."

The muttering voice was too small. Li Su didn't hear it clearly, but saw Li Ji's eyes suddenly turn red, and then tears fell.

Li Su was so scared by his tears that he almost collapsed to the ground.

"Uncle Li, is it... Your Majesty wants to kill me?" Li Su asked in a trembling voice.

Li Su cannot be blamed for his villain for determining the king's ambition. Although he had a great chat with Li Shimin in Ganlu Hall a few days ago, he also introduced new rice seeds to him, which was barely considered to have made contributions. The destruction of marriage that he had done should have passed.

But who in the world can really guess the emperor's thoughts? Li Su is really clear about the emperor's problems. At this moment, he talks and laughs with you and shines brightly on the sun. The next moment, he might suddenly turn against you and cut you off with a knife. This is the so-called "unpredictable power". In layman's terms, it is actually a lunatic.

Seeing that the elder who was very close to him came to the prison to see him for no reason, he murmured a lot of inexplicable words, but finally shed tears for no reason. The whole process was very strange. Anyone who would probably be unable to help but think about this. No matter how strong Li Su was in his heart, he was scared that one Buddha was born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven.

Li Su's terrified reaction finally made Li Ji come back to his senses, and then he was stunned: "Why did Your Majesty kill you?"

Li Su: "...Why are you crying?"

"I remembered some past events and sighed..."

Li Su: “…………”

If there wasn't a prison door blocking him, Li Suzhen would have picked up the low table in the cell and smashed it on the old guy's head.

You ran to my prison door and cried and sighed. Are you sick?

Li Ji sniffed, wiped away tears, and calmed down his emotions. He stared at Li Su for a while, shook his head, and continued to murmur: "It really looks like her, but this temperament... She has been clean and loving all her life, and is stubborn and strong. Your father is diligent and honest, and no matter what the children they gave birth to, they shouldn't be such a bastard."

Li Su blinked, but still couldn't hear what Li Ji was saying.

Today, Li Ji has been talking nonsense since he was admitted to the cell. Li Su felt that he was probably sick, mentally. There was a kind of disease in later generations called "post-war psychological trauma". Li Ji led the army throughout his life, and there were more than one thousand enemies who died under his strategy. He killed so many enemies, and died in different postures. Li Ji mostly had a psychological shadow, so he became ill and ran to Dali Temple in a daze to scare him...

Li Su's thoughts were infinitely diverging and extended, and he was already guessing Li Ji's abnormal performance today with the worst malice.

Li Ji was unaware of it. After staring at Li Su for a while, he finally recovered his consciousness. He stroked his beard and looked at him. He never mentioned his true kinship. Instead, he said lightly: "Now Chang'an City is in a big trouble. It's all because you ruined the Tubo marriage. Prince Jiangxia is also locked in prison. This matter is quite a big deal. Your Majesty said that the person who tied the bell needs to solve the problem. Have you got an idea?"

Li Su shook her head: "I have been thinking about it for a few days, but I still have no good plans."

Li Ji nodded and said, "It's hard for you, but the disaster you caused yourself should be borne by yourself. A man is a real man, one person does things and one person does. Without this kind of burden, he is not worthy of being a member of the Li family."

Li Su looked at him in confusion, and his heart became more and more strange.

The words were right, and the three views were so good that Li Su didn't want to interact with him anymore, but Li Ji's tone of saying this was strange, just like... he was scolding his own son?

"I'm going to take it on my shoulders, otherwise who else can I rely on?" Li Su replied with a bitter smile.
