Chapter 172 People are old and their hearts are not old

The follower wanted to see disappointment or anger on Mo Lizhi's face.

By the surprise, the boy Mo Lizhi did not have these two emotions on his face. On the contrary, he was even more calm at this time. His face was full of ravines, but the ancient waves were not surprised.

As if seeing the surprise of the follower, the boy from Mo Lizhi patiently explained: "Are you surprised?"

The follower nodded.

The boy looked at his follower and said, "Jin Chengshi, you must always remember that this is the sorrow of a small country!"

The boy's eyes suddenly became deep, as if he was going to travel through time and space.

"We Goguryeo since the founding of the Kingdom of Taizu, we have been living in a bitter and cold place in Liaodong. Faced with a big country like China, every time we try to expand, we will be hit hard by them! Do you know the reason?"

Jin Chengshi asked tentatively: "In the words of the Tang people, how can others sleep soundly on the side of the bed?"

"Yes, it's precisely this reason!" The boy sighed deeply and said, "We Goguryeo had no intention of provoking the powerful Han country at first. Our targets were all Dongwoju. However, we just annexed the Sashui area and were interfered by the Han Dynasty! Our Marudu City was destroyed and our country was dismembered..."

Jin Chengshi knew very well in the face of this history that Goguryeo later rebuilt Maru Capital. In the late Eastern Han Dynasty, Goguryeo wanted to attack Liaodong and intended to get involved in the Central Plains. However, their fate was too bitter. They met the unreasonable Gongsun Zan, who was beaten up by Gongsun Zan's White Horse Yicong, and eventually the second time Maru Capital was destroyed.

The Goguryeo people did not give up restoring the country, and they finally waited for another opportunity to rise.

During the Jin Dynasty, Goguryeo also had to get a share of the pie in the Central Plains. However, they met the Xianbei Murong tribe, who dominated Liaodong for nearly a hundred years and had been fighting against Goguryeo people.

After finally dying from the Xianbei Murong tribe, they encountered another unification of the Central Plains.

Although they won the four wars of the Sui Dynasty, more than one hundred cities were destroyed by war, with heavy casualties from east of Liaodong and north of Sashui.

After the fall of the Sui Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty stood firm in the world with a stronger attitude.

The boy seemed a little sad and angry.

The Goguryeo people are also a country with a history of more than 600 years. However, they always have to face a deadly war with the Central Plains.

Jin Sung-shi seemed to see the boy's mind.

Trying to ask, "Tangren had no intention of a peace talk. Are we going back?"

"No... it's not the time yet!" The boy said coldly: "As long as the Tang people hit a wall in Goguryeo and suffered a lot, they will eventually negotiate with us. It takes too much time for us Goguryeo. We must wait for our newborn warriors to grow up, and we also need our people to work hard to fill our reserve granary, and we need to raise our war horses to be fat and strong!"

...

Chenjiabao, inner hall.

In Changsun Wugui's boudoir, Su Yin spread the bedding for Changsun Wugui, while laying it out, saying: "Madam, will it be dangerous for Chen Langjun to leave Goguryeo?"

Changsun Wugui stood in front of the window, looked out thoughtfully, and replied casually: "It shouldn't be!"

Su Yin asked in confusion: "No?"

Changsun Wugui analyzed: "No matter whether they win or lose, Goguryeo will not make things difficult for Chen Langjun. It's not that they can't, but that they dare not!"

Su Yin patted her chest and said, "That's right, if Goguryeo makes things difficult for Chen Langjun, I'm afraid Your Majesty will go crazy!"

Changsun Wugui turned his face and looked at her, sighing softly.

Su Yin suddenly thought of something and said, "Madam..."

Changsun Wugui smiled faintly and said, "Yinyin, I'll go find the princess and betroth you to Guo Luo!"

Su Yin smiled happily and said, "That's fine."

She turned around and continued to make the bed. Su Yin finally understood and immediately blushed: "Who married him!"

Changsun Wugui looked at her short and thin figure and sighed silently: "I'm not blind yet!"

...

In the Tai Chi Hall of Tai Chi Palace, above the main hall, the Prime Minister Fang Xuanling bowed under the Danban and was talking: "...In the past, the military and government were simplified. Because of the matter, it was because of the affairs and government affairs, and it was ordered to go out to many families. If there were occasional discrimination, they would each have a different opinion and would be in constant turmoil. Since the work of the Six Divisions and Twenty-Four Divisions, the affairs and power have been unified and the common affairs have been restored. If it suddenly changes, I am afraid that the disadvantages of martial ethics will appear today."

Wang Gui glanced at Wei Zheng who was standing in the train, but saw Wei Zheng lowering his eyebrows and lowering his eyes, without any response.

He couldn't help but leave the troupe and said, "Your Majesty, as Fang Prime Minister said, railways and transportation are emerging affairs, and there are no precedents to be found. If you don't specialize in management, you can't give it. Even if there are redundant officials, if there is any change, there will be many differences and different powers. I personally think that I will not take it."

Above the Danban, after the imperial case, Li Jiancheng felt a headache when he heard it, his eyes were half closed and half closed, and he asked casually: "What do you think of Wei Prime Minister?"

All the civil and military officials looked at each other in front of each other.

Wei Zheng slowly stepped out of the shift and bowed to him and said, "Your Majesty, I haven't thought about it yet."

Li Jiancheng frowned and said, "This is the request of the General of the Cavalry and the Prince Taibao. Whether it is OK or not, you must have an attitude."

Wei Zheng said calmly: "My Lu Du. Both accurate and inaccurate have their own advantages and disadvantages. Is it more beneficial than disadvantages or more harmful than advantages? I have not yet gained anything at this moment."

Emperor Li Jiancheng smiled and said, "Well, copy two copies of the memorial and send them to the palace of Prime Minister Chen and the old Shizhong to see what they said."

Fang Xuanling looked at Wei Zheng in surprise.

He knew that Wei Zheng was not a person who was afraid of trouble, and he would definitely not express his opinions because he was afraid of offending Chen Ying.

It seemed that something was hidden, Fang Xuanling wanted to ask Wei Zheng.

But Wei Zheng also retreated to his class.

Wang Gui glanced at Wei Zheng from a distance, but Wei Zheng lowered his eyebrows, looked at his nose and his mouth, and his expression was calm.

As for the matter of Tang Jian reporting to Goguryeo, Fang Xuanling didn't listen to a single word.

Until the scattered court, Fang Xuanling couldn't wait to catch up with Wei Zheng.

Without waiting for Fang Xuanling to speak, Wei Zheng said, "Xuanling, go back and talk!"

After leaving the Tai Chi Palace Gate, Fang Xuanling boarded Wei Zheng's carriage.

The carriage slowly started.

Fang Xuanling asked Wei Zheng: "Xuancheng, what do you mean in the court today?"

Wei Zheng said lightly: "I told the truth."

Fang Xuanling said angrily: "We have finally streamlined the officials and cut off redundant officials. We have initially achieved results. Now, Chen Ying wrote a memorial that he actually wants to establish four new departments and sixteen departments and add more than 800 official positions. He is not good at it and is just a joke on you and me. However, he needs to work together at this time to refute this matter. Why did you go to Tai Chi Hall without thinking about it and then go through it vaguely?"

Wei Zheng patiently explained: "Xuancheng, during the Wude period, I served in the Eastern Palace and knew a lot about Chen Ying. He was a pragmatic and talented person. He knew some things, but we didn't know. At this time, he rashly advanced and said it was not important to say something wrong. If he violated the emperor's taboo, it would be a good intention to do something bad."

Fang Xuanling smiled and said, "Isn't it because Chen Ying has a high position and power? So what? The court is not Chen's court, so what else can I be taboo?"

Wei Zheng slowly breathed a sigh of relief and said: "The four new ministries were reported by Chen Ying, but they were not for Chen Ying's personal gain."

Fang Xuanling suddenly seemed to understand something and said, "This is for Fusang..."

Wei Zheng glanced at Fang Xuanling and said lightly: "I don't mean anything, and I didn't say anything!"

Fang Xuanling said depressedly: "It's a pity that Fang is passionate and intends to serve the country. I'm afraid that this kind of good intention will do something bad!"

A smile appeared on the corner of Wei Zheng's mouth and he replied lightly: "That may not be."

Fang Xuanling looked at Wei Zheng in shock.

Wei Zheng smiled happily and said, "Did you know what the emperor Chen and the old minister meant!"

Fang Xuanling suddenly realized.

With that old fox Pei Ju, this matter will definitely be sold to Chen Ying, the future in-laws.
