"Brother, I understand!" said the little princess.
It can be seen that the little princess has no resistance or objection.
"Well, that's good. I've also told Qingque Sanlang that they're not right either. They said before that this matter should be fine. In the days to come, Sizi, you have to follow me."
Li Chengqian wanted to take the little princess to familiarize herself with the procedures and how to be a good emperor.
"Okay, I'll listen to you, brother."
A few people sat down, and Li Chengqian took out a letter and said, "In the seventh year of the Zhenguan period, Sanlang Qingque and Xiaolangjun took the lead in establishing the Tang Dynasty Imperial Academy. At that time, my grandfather learned about the academy and told me that in the near future, another group would emerge in the Tang Dynasty, a force powerful enough to challenge the aristocratic families."
Li Chengqian said this, and Li Lizhi and Xiao Ran also understood.
This force is the new royal family elite centered around Xiao Ran and Li Lizhi, including children from poor families who graduated from the Royal Academy, and those who have benefited from the technological dividends of the 21st century.
Originally, many people did not have the opportunity to move up, but because of the technological dividends of the 21st century, many people have joined the aristocratic class.
These people continued to expand their influence in the subsequent expansion wars, especially when Li Shimin asked Princess Xiao Ran and others to invest in the development of America, this new force completely rose.
Li Shimin had anticipated this situation from the very beginning and had always supported this force.
Judging from the current situation, the core of this power is the Tang royal family, several princesses and princes.
Li Lizhi and the two little princesses Xiao Ran control a large amount of wealth, which is enough to influence the court.
Li Ke, Li You, Princess Yuzhang, and Li Lizhi also mastered many techniques.
Especially Li Ke's comprehensive college and the military academy, these new forces are rising and growing rapidly.
Li Shimin's original intention was to support the new noble forces to fight against the power of the traditional aristocratic families, so as to prevent the aristocratic families from becoming too rampant and doing whatever they wanted.
The emperor mediates and maintains a balance among all parties.
Since the aristocratic families cannot be eliminated in a short period of time, we should support new forces.
"Grandpa said before that once the Tang Dynasty's expansion is complete, we can start reforms. These reforms will include many aspects, including the improvement of the imperial examination system."
Xiao Ran remembered that Li Shimin had discussed the imperial examination system with him countless times before and asked him to prepare many books about the imperial examination system.
Before, Xiao Ran wondered why Li Shimin didn't take any action. It turned out that the time was not right.
Li Chengqian gave the envelope to Xiao Ran, who took it and opened it. It was Li Shimin's handwriting, and Xiao Ran recognized it.
I feel a little uncomfortable.
After reading it, Xiao Ran showed it to Princess Li Lizhi and the others next to him.
Li Shimin was always planning, he really never slacked off.
Li Chengqian's eyes were red. "Grandpa has been preparing these for more than ten years, revising them countless times. Many of the opinions and plans were discussed between Grandpa and the previous uncle..."
Those who helped to come up with ideas must have included Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng, Ma Zhou, Li Jing...the core members of the Zhenguan Dynasty.
Xiao Ran and several princesses were unaware of this matter.
Xiao Ran and several princesses were deeply touched. Looking at the rice paper in their hands, they seemed to see the scene of Li Shimin discussing with Fang Xuanling, Ma Zhou and others, and Li Shimin organizing the reform plan alone.
Many of the contents here should also be attributed to Empress Changsun.
She did not get involved in politics, but would give Li Shimin constructive suggestions.
Finally, there is Li Shimin's admonition: "With its powerful armies and ingenious weapons, the Great Tang has conquered the vast lands and unified the world. The Tang's actions today are similar to the Qin's unification, yet on a grander scale. I hope that future generations will learn from the Qin's mistakes, govern with virtue, care for the people with benevolence, exercise power with caution, and avoid cruelty. All actions must be handled with caution and without laxity. I believe that the great Tang's virtue will endure for thousands of years, and its prosperity will endure forever!"
The current Tang Dynasty has truly achieved the goal of "All under heaven belongs to the king."
He really conquered the whole world.
Qin Shi Huang carried on the legacy of his six generations, and two generations of Li Shimin and Li Chengqian connected the entire planet.
What we need to do is the same: standardize the writing system, the wheel gauge, and the weights and measures.
We must achieve unity of thought and ideology, otherwise it will not last long.
"Grandpa!" The little princess couldn't help crying after seeing the end.
Princess Yuzhang gently hugged the little princess and said, "Grandpa still has a lot of things to do. Sizi, you have to finish it for Grandpa..."
Li Shimin was always worried about the Tang Dynasty that he was thinking about.
Xiao Ran had previously thought that Li Shimin was giving up, but it turns out he hadn't...
He has always been a wise and capable emperor.
The planning began in the seventh year of Zhenguan.
Li Shimin had long anticipated what changes Xiao Ran's appearance would cause.
"Sizi, my health doesn't allow me to do these things. I'll leave the reforms to you. As Grandpa said before, once the Tang Dynasty's expansion is complete, we just need to implement reforms. When the reforms are completed, the Tang Dynasty will enter a prosperous era!"
"Okay, I'll remember it!" The little princess took the revised plan and held it in her arms.
"Reform will offend many people. Before I abdicate, I will spread the news of the reform. Whoever opposes it will be killed by me!" Li Chengqian wants to be the worst person and clear as many obstacles as possible for the little princess.
The little princess nodded, feeling that the burden was heavy on her shoulders.
This is the philosophy of Li Shimin and Li Chengqian.
Two generations worked hard and conquered the world, and now it is up to the little princess.
Seeing Li Chengqian coughing violently, the sisters became extremely anxious.
If Li Chengqian doesn't retire at this rate, he will have a hard time working at such a high intensity for a year.
Several princesses and princes knew about it, but Li Zhi didn't know yet.
Li Zhi is still lecturing at the Royal Academy.
The little princess returned to her room holding the reform plan left by Li Shimin and cried for a long time to vent her emotions.
Xiao Ran, Li Lizhi and others did not disturb them.
After a long time, the little princess came out, her whole appearance changed, but her eyes were red.
"It's okay, we are all here!" Li Lizhi encouraged the little princess.
Li Chengqian returned to the Imperial Academy and looked at Li Zhi giving a lecture in the classroom.
It's hard to imagine that this is a prince.
This doesn't look like an emperor.
Although they knew that Li Zhi was the ultimate winner, Li Chengqian and Li Tai did not hold any resentment towards Li Zhi.
It really has nothing to do with Li Zhi. Li Zhi did not fight or compete, and everything was decided by fate.
According to normal development, Li Zhi was qualified as an emperor.
This is also the reason why Li Chengqian chose Li Zhi.
It is not clear what happened to the others later, but it is well documented that Li Zhi became emperor.
The temple name Gaozong had great value at first, but the Wu Zetian incident caused Li Zhi's reputation to decline seriously. By the time of Song Gaozong, the temple name had become infamous, and it was even worse for Qing Gaozong!
It was originally a good temple name, but it was ruined by three people!
