He remembered that when the little princess was reciting the Three Character Classic, there was a line: "Root of life star, flying earth wisdom. Tired of thanking the law, seeing the people's mistakes."

Later, Li Shimin learned from the little princess that the so-called "enclave wisdom" meant "abolishing the monarchy" and "Ni Xie Fa" meant "establishing a constitution"!

Doesn't this mean that if the method the little princess mentioned is really implemented, he, the emperor, will become dispensable?

There was a storm in Li Shimin's heart.

Could it be that this little divine beast has some ulterior motive, and wants to use the little princess to gradually abolish the imperial system and dig up the roots of the Tang Dynasty?

But... he thought about it carefully again and found that the logic seemed to be extremely rigorous, self-consistent, and very feasible.

According to the little princess's proposal, even if a constitution was established, the emperor would still be the highest authority in the country.

As long as we firmly control military power, financial power, supervisory power and judicial power.

Then, neither the sect nor the prime minister could make any waves.

Moreover, if he handled it properly, he could completely rely on the help of the clan and the prime minister to deal with those deeply rooted aristocratic families.

After all, what the court lacks the least is party disputes.

Instead of letting factional disputes in the court become the source of national instability, it is better to take the initiative and establish a framework within which they can fight.

In this way, the destructive power of party disputes can be controlled within a certain range, and the court can always remain vibrant, so that there will not be a situation where one party dominates.

Thinking of this, Li Shimin couldn't help but let out a long breath.

He had to admit that he was indeed convinced.

However, the name "Constitution" is not good, and Li Shimin feels a little taboo about it. So it would be better to call it "Tang Law"!

…

Just as Li Shimin and the little princess were thinking carefully about the future institutional changes of the Tang Dynasty.

Outside the court, the Tang Dynasty was also undergoing an unprecedented change due to the various strange objects brought by the little princess.

With the widespread dissemination of blast furnace steelmaking technology, agricultural tools and implements have undergone revolutionary changes and innovations.

In the fields, new steel plowshares turned over layers of fertile soil;

In the workshop, refined steel tools improve the production efficiency of craftsmen.

In the coastal states and counties, with the spread of new shipbuilding technology and the arrival of steam engines allocated by the imperial court.

One after another, stunning steam ironclad ships were built.

These ironclad ships were not only extremely strong, but also sailed at extremely fast speeds, as if they were the overlords of the sea, foreshadowing the rise of the Tang Dynasty Navy.

However, soon after these ironclad ships were built, a small number of them were reported to the imperial court by local officials on the pretext that they had been destroyed by hitting reefs.

In fact, it was occupied by some aristocratic families, and was heading towards Yin Shangzhou in a mighty manner.

As for those belonging to the Tang Dynasty Navy, they also marched south in a mighty force to find Borneo as mentioned by the little divine beast.

In the Department of Construction, they also achieved remarkable results. They finally built a simple steam car using a steam engine.

Although the speed and comfort of these steam cars were far from comparable to those luxury cars of later generations, their bodies were even simply made of wood.

But this is still a groundbreaking product, marking that mankind has finally begun to gradually break away from its dependence on animal power and entered the era of mechanical power.

However, the dawn of this new era is not entirely bright.

In the three towns of Heshuo, in the secret workshop of the Lu family of Fanyang, fire flickered and the sound of hammers pounded one after another.

"Hurry up, move more quickly!" The head of the workshop, a middle-aged man with a face full of flesh, urged the craftsmen loudly.

"Boss, can the range of this mountain cannon compare to the imperial court's red cannon?" a young craftsman asked curiously.

The chief sneered, "Humph, the imperial court's red-coated cannon? That's just child's play."

Our improved version of the Ma Chuai Mountain Cannon has a longer range and higher accuracy. By then, who would dare to challenge us on the battlefield?

Upon hearing this, the craftsmen all showed excitement.

They knew that what they were creating was not just a weapon, but also the hope for the family's future rise.

During the Tang Dynasty, the imperial court did not allow aristocratic families to have private armies.

But in practice, many aristocratic families secretly cultivated their own forces in preparation for emergencies.

As one of the five surnames and seven aristocrats, the Lu family of Fanyang is the best among them.

Not only do they have a certain influence in the court, but they also have accumulated powerful power in private.

This time, the improved version of the Ma Chuai Mountain Cannon they developed is a microcosm of their ambition.

They hope to use this advanced weapon to further enhance their influence in the future and even change the future world situation.

These aristocratic families not only control a large number of skilled craftsmen.

At the same time, through infiltration into the imperial court, they obtained a large amount of technology and advanced techniques that should have belonged only to the imperial court.

The steel used in the blast furnace to make this mountain cannon, as well as the information about the red-coated cannons, were all obtained from within the imperial court through various means.

What is even more shocking is that these aristocratic families are not satisfied with just manufacturing weapons.

They are also secretly developing more advanced technologies in an attempt to gain a more advantageous position in future battles.

Some families have begun to try to manufacture more sophisticated machinery, and some have even begun to study how to replicate the machine tools used to produce steam engines to manufacture steam engines.

What's more, many noble families were very interested in the automatic firearm that the little princess displayed that day.

Although Li Shimin said that the firearm could not be replicated, this did not stop these aristocratic families from trying.

They gathered the best craftsmen in the family and invested a lot of resources and time in the hope of replicating similar firearms.

"As long as we can successfully replicate that firearm, who in the future will be our rival?"

The head of the Fanyang Lu family said this with confidence while discussing with his confidants in the secret room.

Not only the Fanyang Lu family, but other aristocratic families also held similar ideas.

As the top families of this era, they naturally knew the powerful power of this kind of automatic firearm.

Therefore, they privately spared no effort and invested huge amounts of money in the research and development of this firearm.

The ambitions and actions of these aristocratic families undoubtedly brought huge hidden dangers to the stability of the Tang Dynasty.

Once their power grows to a certain extent, they are likely to pose a direct threat to the imperial court.

However, at this time, Li Shimin still did not know the actions behind these aristocratic families.

He is working with the little princess, or more accurately, Li Haoze, to push forward the formulation of the Tang Code and various reforms within the Tang Dynasty.
