Three whips break the father-son relationship, please call me prince

Chapter 118 The Super Halo of the Tang Dynasty

Li Chengqian was very satisfied with everyone's reactions.

This is right.

If everyone remained indifferent, then he would be talking to a deaf ear and would be extremely disappointed.

I am not afraid of people having desires, I am just afraid of seeing the desires but not daring to reach out.

For ordinary people, what they care about is survival and whether they have food to eat.

But for the officials in the temple, a prosperous era is the most intuitive and concrete way to display the image of a capable minister who governs the country.

An unprecedented, magnificent and prosperous era has infinitely elevated this image and achievement.

Until it becomes unreachable and becomes an epic mountain that is difficult to cross.

No minister could remain calm in the face of such temptation.

Who doesn’t want to be a role model for the world and an object for future generations to emulate?

The passing geese leave their voices, and the passing people leave their names.

At the end of the day, life is just that simple.

……

"Indeed, there are external ones."

Li Chengqian struck while the iron was hot and continued, "It's actually very simple to openly communicate with others."

“It’s nothing more than three criteria.”

"One, there is no enemy country around!"

"Second, there are no powerful countries around."

"Third, there are no hostile powers around us."

"Internally, it is about people's livelihood, and externally, it is about military affairs."

"What do you think of our Tang Dynasty now?"

Everyone hesitated and did not speak in a hurry.

An invincible country around?
Isn’t there one in the Tang Dynasty?
Tubo is one, Xueyantuo is one, and Goryeo is also one.

It can be said that there are no powerful countries around. After all, who around the Tang Dynasty dares to compete with it with real swords and guns?

They had just destroyed Gaochang and were now imposing a blockade on Tubo.

Speaking of strength, who is stronger than the current Tang Dynasty?
But there are many people in the enemy country who appear to be submissive but are disrespectful in secret.

"Your Highness."

"I have never heard of such a grand standard."

Kong Yingda had a different opinion and said, "According to this standard, the Tang Dynasty can only destroy all the hostile countries around it."

"I don't know whether it is right or wrong."

"After all, since ancient times, the sages have never mentioned such a statement."

"..."

He wanted to continue speaking, but Li Chengqian interrupted him rudely, "Master Kong said this."

"It reminds me of two things."

"I hate it deeply."

Everyone looked inquiring, wondering what could have made the prince so disgusted and resentful.

Kong Yingda looked a little embarrassed, and it was obvious that what he had just said made His Highness very disgusted.

"The first thing is to make the national flag."

Li Chengqian looked around and said, "I would like to ask Yan Liben how to prevent the color of the national flag from fading. Is there any method to fix the color?"

"Yan Liben's answer disappointed me greatly."

"He said there is no way to fix the color. The national flag in front of Chengtian Gate is changed every day, so there is no need to worry about fading."

"Even if it rains heavily and the national flag gets wet and fades, you can just dry it and preserve it immediately after lowering it."

“It’s not a big deal.”

He said in a bad tone: "I was really pissed off and laughed."

"Of course, Yan Liben cannot be blamed for this. This is not something he should be responsible for."

"The problem of color fading has always existed. In the end, we can only rely on embroiderers to sew the flags to ensure that the color does not fade."

"The reason why I am so angry and laughing is that the color fixation problem has been going on for many years, and my Tang Dynasty has not yet solved the problem of color loss?"

"Don't the craftsmen of our Tang Dynasty know how to find a way to experiment and solve this problem?"

Everyone listened silently. Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling and Wei Zheng probably thought that the next one might be the Ministry of Works.

"This is just one of them."

Li Chengqian said with a gloomy face, "The second one is farm tools."

"Half a year ago, the Ministry of Works and the Ministry of Revenue were questioned by the two palaces. I believe everyone has heard about it."

"The fundamental reason is that I was out on a spring outing and saw that the farm tools used by old farmers were heavy and laborious, making it difficult to plow the land and their efficiency was extremely low."

"That kind of plow has been around for so many years. Hundreds of years have passed. I don't believe that there is no one who doesn't know how much of a burden that kind of plow is for the people to cultivate the land."

"But the officials have never thought of making improvements to reduce the burden on arable land so that they can have more energy and time to reclaim more fields."

“As the ancients said, if you want to do your work well, you must first sharpen your tools.”

"If we want to increase food production, we need more arable land."

"A plow that does half the work is powerless to cultivate other fields."

Everyone kept silent and listened quietly, no one spoke.

Even the disciples and students lowered their heads slightly, looking thoughtful.

"I have accused the Ministry of Works and the Ministry of Revenue of not doing their job, sitting in their posts without doing anything, and not making any progress."

"Holding on to the same idea that has existed since ancient times, we never take the initiative to consider how to improve or even invent things that benefit the country and the people."

Li Chengqian pointed his index finger downward fiercely, "I hate this kind of people who stick to the old ways, sit back and enjoy the fruits of others' labor, and think that what their predecessors did and said is right."

"I'll tell you!"

Kong Yingda's face turned slightly red, and he couldn't help but tremble when Li Chengqian's voice became louder.

"The Tang Dynasty is a dynasty that is determined to carry on the past, create innovation, and be open and advanced."

Li Chengqian spoke loudly and solemnly, "When the Zhou Dynasty was first established, there was no etiquette system. It was established and formulated later."

"The current emperor of the Tang Dynasty should also do the same as King Wu of Zhou."

"We should also have the power of a minister under King Wu of Zhou."

"My Tang Dynasty is very similar to the Zhou Dynasty. Everything has to start from scratch, including the ritual and music system."

"But our Tang Dynasty is so lucky that we still have the legacy of our predecessors. We can inherit it and continue it."

"But it doesn't mean we should stop moving forward and stay where we are."

"The Tang Dynasty should be like King Wu of Zhou, who had the courage to create the world and rebuild it."

"The Tang Dynasty is a link between the past and the future. It remade Chinese clothing, established rituals and music, brought peace to the nine provinces, and pacified the four seas. Isn't it time for our generation to create a new chapter?"

Everyone was shocked.

How dare the prince?

How dare he compare the Tang Dynasty with the Zhou Dynasty?

Can the two be compared?
That was King Wu of Zhou, the monarch who established the ritual and music system during his reign.

this…….

They were extremely shocked, but no one had the room or courage to refute.

The current emperor is King Wu of Zhou, so can't Emperor Gaozu be compared to King Wen of Zhou?

So what are these ministers of the two dynasties?
The prince was praising Emperor Gaozu and the emperor, and he was also praising them.

How could they refuse this sugar-coated bullet?
Should we let them throw it back?
Wouldn't that be cutting yourself off from the world? Li Chengqian slowly stood up and took a few steps towards the crowd.

He watched everyone's reactions and chuckled in his heart. It was too easy to control.

Just these compliments.

No matter what, there is no one who doesn't like it.

He also gave these people a mental BUFF invisibly.

Li Shimin is compared to King Wu of Zhou. Wouldn't you, the ministers, be able to sit at the same table with Duke Zhou? You are still not virtuous.

Are you worthy of the emperor, worthy of the Tang Dynasty, worthy of your ancestors, and worthy of the people of the world?
If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight.

Once this tall hat is put on, everyone has to move forward with a heavy burden.

but…….

Li Chengqian felt that it was not enough. The effect of some forced words was far less than giving them a super halo.

"I have something to say to everyone present here, and to all the subjects of the Tang Dynasty."

The historian quickly turned to a new page.

Many famous scholars and students also hurriedly lowered their heads, put their pens on paper, and then looked up at the prince.

The prince took a step forward and said:

"Establish a heart for heaven and earth!"

Heaven and earth are originally without mind; human hearts create them.

Li Chengqian took another step and recited the second sentence:

"Establish a destiny for the people!"

Thousands of people are exploring and seeking the way.

Li Chengqian took the third step and recited the third sentence:

"To carry on the legacy of the saints!"

The tradition passed down by our predecessors carries forward the past and opens up new horizons.

Everyone was stunned.

They stared at the prince blankly as he took the fourth step.

Li Chengqian opened his hands wide, raised them above his head, and shouted:

"Bring peace to all eternity!"

boom!
Everyone's mind exploded, their whole body felt numb and they couldn't help but tremble.

Li Chengqian controlled the whole audience with just four sentences.

There was no sound at all.

Everyone stared blankly at Li Chengqian, who had his hands raised high like a sage.

There was only one person who was writing furiously.

That's right.

It's the historian.

He was no calmer in his heart than others, but as a historian, absolute rationality prevailed.

No matter how shocking it is, it cannot shake his professional ethics in recording history.

"this……."

"This is my lifelong pursuit in the Tang Dynasty."

"It is the ideal and goal that the Tang Dynasty is determined to achieve."

"Everyone."

Li Chengqian shouted: "The prosperous Tang Dynasty is created by us together!"

“Tang Dynasty…!”

Chang Sun Wuji came back to his senses. He quickly came to the hall, clasped his hands together, and shouted:
"Ten thousand years for the Tang Dynasty."

"Your Majesty, ten thousand years!"

Immediately.

Everyone stood up and shouted along.

"Ten thousand years for the Tang Dynasty."

"Your Majesty, ten thousand years!"

The shouts were deafening and almost blew the roof off the house.

Li Chengqian didn't care, he was not among the shouts.

Shouting Li Shimin is just as it should be.

Li Shimin was the emperor of the Tang Dynasty and the person in charge of the Tang Dynasty.

It is like the publication of a paper, Li Chengqian is the corresponding author and Li Shimin is the first author.

Harmless.

He was very proud and proud in his heart.

Finally, this super halo has been added to the entire Tang Dynasty.

In the future, these four sentences will become the ideological program of the entire Tang Dynasty, guiding the development of the Tang Dynasty.

This is not one person's fulfilled promise.

Li Chengqian imposed it on the entire Tang people.

From the Tang Emperor Li Shimin to ordinary people, even the slaves who sold themselves into slavery.

Under the influence of this super halo, they will also realize that although they are humble, they also shoulder important missions.

Regardless of whether you have the ability to complete the mission, just say that having such a halo is useless.

"What happened to Chongjiao Hall? Why is there such a loud shouting?"

"I don't know. I heard that it was a group of celebrities who came to see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. It must be something important."

Even the eunuchs passing by were startled by the noise in the Chongjiao Hall and kept talking among themselves in low voices.

"Everyone!"

Li Chengqian calmed the crowd's excitement, "I hope you will remember what I said today."

“We must inherit the legacy of our predecessors, but we must also have the courage to explore and develop.”

"To show my firm resolve."

"From now on."

He raised his head slightly, his eyes clear and firm, and said: "The Chongjiao Hall will be renamed the Tianqi Hall."

"It means to inherit the past and the future."

"I will practice what I say, and I will be consistent and unwavering!"

Li Ji's expression was extremely complicated. During today's lecture, he once again witnessed the wisdom of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

"Your Highness is wise!"

Everyone praised it.

"It's broken. I didn't write it down."

"Ah, I didn't do that much. I was distracted for a moment and forgot."

Among the students, some suddenly felt extremely remorseful. Some celebrities remained calm, but in fact they also felt a little regretful in their hearts.

The pens were placed on the paper, but they did not touch a stroke during the prince's four sentences.

In the corner, the historian twirled his beard and smiled slightly.
