Gu Han opened the box, took out several thick books from the inside and borrowed them, and placed them in front of Tan Daozhen.

Tan Daozhen picked up the Tang Dynasty military scriptures as thick as bricks, and his hands were slightly trembling. It was just a book about how to train soldiers. It was so thick?

Although he did not become a Jinshi in the Tang Dynasty like his brother, he was definitely a knowledgeable and talented person. He naturally read a lot of military books, especially after returning to China, he began to lead troops to fight, and tried every means to collect relevant books and borrow them for study. However, there has never been a military book, which is so thick.

I opened the directory and just glanced a few times, my breathing became a little heavy.

He suddenly closed the book, looked at Gu Han and said, "Is this really a gift for me?"

"Of course!" Gu Han smiled and said, "Actually, this is not a secret in the Tang Dynasty. Anyone with a way can get it."

"Thank you!" Although Gu Han said this, Tan Daozhen still bowed to Gu Han very seriously: "Please thank General Wen on my behalf."

Gu Han waved his hand, but pointed to the books on the farm book minutes, and said meaningfully: "General Tan, I think these books are probably much more important to Goryeo than the military scripture you value."

"I know, I know, I won't put the cart before the horse." Tan Daozhen nodded repeatedly.

Gu Han smiled slightly, what if you really study this military scripture thoroughly? It is one thing to understand, and it is another thing to implement it.

I’m afraid that the more thorough Tan Daozhen studies it, the more painful it will be in the future!

He would truly understand that the gap in strength between Goryeo and the Tang Dynasty was even greater than he thought, and it was so big that it made him desperate.

This may be the real purpose of Wen Fu's gift to him. This book is still a secret book in the Tang Dynasty. Only when a person in a high position can he realize that this huge gap is not possible to make up for in a short period of time, his fear of the Tang Dynasty will be deeply rooted in his bones.

At that time, he may become a big man in Goryeo who is willing to follow the Tang Dynasty. This will be a powerful constraint on some adventurous people in Goryeo at that time.

Well, General Wen should not have such foresight, either Mr. Gongsun or Li Xiang himself would have thought so far.

Since the Tang Dynasty was not prepared to directly include Goryeo under its direct jurisdiction, it was necessary to consider future responsibilities and cultivate some Goryeo figures who were pro-Tang Dynasty or feared the Tang Dynasty.

Gu Han took out a piece of brocade from the box and shook it open, but Tan Daozhen's face became solemn again. This was a pair of embroidery, which was not uncommon, but above this pair of embroidery, it was embroidered with the territory map of the Tang Dynasty and Goryeo.

He looked at it for a while before whispering: "Is this what Li Xiang meant last?"

Gu Han nodded: "Yes, from now on, the ones within this yellow line are the inviolable territory of Goryeo Gods. If anyone wants to be unfavorable to you, the Tang Dynasty will also consider it an offense to the Tang Dynasty."

Tan Daozhen took a deep breath: "But, Yingzhou was also our ruling area before, and it was stolen by Zhang Zhongwu."

Gu Han didn't say anything, just stared at Tan Daozhen, but his eyes looked a little colder.

Tan Daozhen sat down slowly, lowered his head, frowned his eyebrows and eyes, which seemed extremely painful. After a while, he nodded: "I understand what Li Xiang means. As for me, I have no objection. In the past, Yingzhou was only nominally under our rule, and there were bandits, Yi tribes, and savages. We had never really controlled that land. But even if my brother and I approve it, the king may not approve it. Gu Zongjun, you know that in Goryeo, everything my brother supports, the king's team is likely to oppose it."

Gu Han smiled and put the embroidery roll in his hand back in the box, and sat opposite Tan Daozhen. "This is exactly the focus of your next discussion with General Tan. Earlier, because Li Xiang did not set the real political structure of Goryeo in the future, I couldn't say much, but this time, I have received a clear authorization to talk to you formally."

"Have Li Xiang decided on our political structure in Goryeo?" Tan Daozhen suddenly raised her head, her face full of incredible ideas. "Li Xiang said that she would not interfere in our internal affairs."

"Yes." Gu Han said bluntly: "General Tan, but I am forgiving me, this time we drove Zhang Zhongwu's power out of Goryeo. Your group, together with the king, is still incompatible. Do you still have to fight to the death like before? Although the king group, without Zhang Zhongwu's support, is indeed not your opponent, but you are not sure to kill them all? And."

Speaking of this, Gu Han paused for a moment before saying heavily: "Li Xiang would not allow such a thing to happen."

"What should I do if Li Xiang is going to do?"

Gu Han said: "The king will always be a king, that is to say, Li Zaidao and his ranks will always be the king."

Tan Dao's breathing was really heavy.

"However, the power of Goryeo's rule will be controlled by the Prime Minister. The term of office of each Prime Minister will be five years." Gu Han continued. "Whoever is the Prime Minister will be elected by the heads of the states in various parts of Goryeo and will be voted together. Of course, the king has a negative decision."

"In this case, isn't it still the king's power?" Tan Daozhen immediately opposed.

"The king has only two opposition rights. If the third vote is still the previous one, then the king's veto will be invalid." Gu Han smiled. "And, in order to limit the king's veto power, once the king exercises such power and the veto is invalid in the end, then in the next election, the king will lose the opportunity to veto the next term. Do I say this, General Tan understand?"

Tan Daozhen immediately understood. In other words, whether he can become the prime minister depends on the degree of control of the country relative to local areas. As long as the Tan family can maintain control over most local officials in Goryeo, then the rights of the Tan family can be ensured. In the future, the focus of the power struggle between the king and the Tan family will be on the appointment and competition for officials in various states.

This is not an unacceptable decision.

Since Li Ze did not allow them to go further, then seizing the position of the Prime Minister would be equivalent to controlling the real power of Goryeo. Li Zaidao will only be a nominal king in the future. And Tan can become the true uncrowned king of Goryeo. In the future, as long as the Tan family can always control the position of the Prime Minister, Tan will naturally be worry-free.

"I understand. I will tell my brother what Li Xiang means. I think the brother can accept it, but can the king accept it?"

"Their side, then, I will naturally convince you." Gu Han smiled and said, "By the way, there is another thing to tell General Tan, I will be the first governor of the Tang Dynasty in Goryeo."

"Governor?"

"General Tan, don't get me wrong. This governor is just a false position. The meaning of the existence of the governor is to coordinate the peaceful coexistence between the prime minister and the king. Of course, we must also ensure that the interests of our Tang Dynasty in Goryeo are not violated." Gu Han said with a smile: "I, as the governor, will never interfere with the internal affairs of Goryeo."

If I really believe you, you will be the number one fool in Tianzi. Tan Daozhen thought silently in his heart.

I am afraid that the existence of this governor is to check and balance the Tan family? Once the Prime Minister wants to be unfavorable to the Tang Dynasty, the governor will take action immediately without using military power. As long as he completely turns to the Kings, he is afraid that the power balance in Goryeo will be reversed immediately. In the next Prime Minister's election, a prime minister who is against the Tan family will be elected.

"Tan's family will definitely become Governor Gu's most loyal and best friend in Goryeo." Tan Daozhen said heavily.

This is impossible. The Tang Dynasty could not have put so much effort into it. In the end, it left Goryeo alone. No one would give this effort without asking for anything in return. Thinking of what the Tang Dynasty said at the time that it was necessary to station an army in Goryeo and ask for control of a port, Tan Daozhen felt that Goryeo really wanted to be independent, and it seemed that it was nowhere to be possible.

In the future, three forces will appear in Goryeo.

The king's line, the prime minister's line, and the Tang people's line.

Well, or the three-legged tripod can really restore peace to Goryeo. As long as everything is calm, with the ability of the elder brother, they can naturally gradually strengthen Goryeo's governance. We can only talk about the future. If we don't have enough strength, it will be useless to say anything.

No matter what, the conditions given by Li Ze were much better than Zhang Zhongwu. Zhang Zhongwu regarded Goryeo as a dog and a cow and horse that could generate countless wealth for him. Li Ze at least gave them more power, giving them room to move so that they would not even feel suffocated when they breathed.

"It's really pleasant to talk to General Tan!" Gu Han stood up with a smile and bowed: "Since that's the case, Gu will have nothing else. When General Wen's health recovers, you can communicate with General Wen about military affairs. In this regard, Gu will not be able to interfere."

After seeing Gu Han away, Tan Dao was really excited. How could he feel sleepy? He picked up the military exercises, looked through a few pages, but he put it down thoughtfully and changed the minutes of the farm book.
