The God-Level Prodigal Son of the Tang Dynasty

What does it mean to deter the forces surrounding Datang?

Li Shimin might as well say directly that he would use these deceptive medicines to conquer all other surrounding forces.

After that, they advanced from the west to the east, south to the north, and unified the world.

How could Li Shimin, a land-farming madman, only think about intimidation?

If he was given enough opportunities, Zhao Chen had no doubt that Lao Li Tou would plant rice from the Tang Dynasty to every corner of the world.

The thing has been made, and it is impossible for Zhao Chen to put it back.

As for Lao Li Tou wanting to conquer the world with just one thing, Zhao Chen felt that it was not necessary.

After all, weapons are just foreign objects and means.

To protect the country, rely on the hearts of the people.

Expanding territory relies on courage.

The people of the Tang Dynasty were united and the military was at its peak. Whether or not there were sky-blasting cannons was really not that important.

"I saw something wrong in your boy's eyes." Li Shimin looked at Zhao Chen with a smile and said.

"Weapons are foreign objects after all. Conquering the world depends on the benevolence of those in power, the admonition of civil servants, the fighting of generals, the support of the people, and the unity of the people."

"Without these, no matter how powerful the weapon is, it is just a weapon used to take your own life." Zhao Chen shook his head.

Although I don't want to talk to Lao Litou about this.

But Zhao Chen was also afraid that Lao Li would get a brain cramp for the first time and really want to keep building sky-shattering cannons.

When the time comes, there will really be explosions wherever you are disobedient.

Then Zhao Chen is really a criminal in history.

"Your Majesty, what Zhao Chen said makes sense. No matter how good the sky-blasting cannon is, it is just an external object after all. If a person wants to be strong, he must first make himself strong."

"If you don't cultivate yourself, how can you manage your family, let alone govern your country and bring peace to the world?"

"If Datang wants to grow stronger, it still has to improve itself from within."

Queen Changsun agreed very much with Zhao Chen’s idea.

He even took out what Zhao Chen said before.

Li Shimin smiled, but stopped talking.

…

Everything that needs to be known is known, and everything that needs to be asked has been asked.

Old Li Tou drove Zhao Chen out of the Li Zheng Hall very rudely.

Sitting on the chariot, Zhao Chen didn't feel unhappy at all.

Old Li Tou promised that he would not drive Zhao Chen out of Chang'an City again.

At least it won't be too easy.

The little eunuch laughed with him all the way, and before leaving the palace, he waved to Zhao Chen with a smile.

Don't dare to offend Zhao Chen.

After all, the emperor and the empress could hold a banquet in the Li Zheng Palace, a big shot that a small eunuch like them would not dare to offend.

The little pony also had a bulging belly, and it seemed that he had not been treated unfairly.

Walking on the road, I didn't want to move my hooves for a long time.

On the way, I met Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu, who were sneaking towards Pingkangfang.

He was going to Pingkangfang, but not to find Zhao Chen.

The two guys said that they had been in fear for a long time in the army and they always felt uncomfortable.

It was obvious that he couldn't bear the loneliness and wanted to go out to visit a brothel.

Zhao Chen could see through the minds of the two guys at a glance.

The two guys also encouraged Zhao Chen to go, but Zhao Chen kicked them away one by one.

There is a beautiful girl waiting at home, why go to a brothel?

Back at the house, Fu Bo was sitting on the steps basking in the sun.

The weather is nice during the day, and the old man likes to bask in the sun when he has nothing to do.

"Sir, we have a guest here, brought here by the village chief." When Uncle Fu saw Zhao Chen coming back, he stepped forward to lead the horse and said to Zhao Chen.

"Uncle Fu, have you ever seen that person?" Zhao Chen was not in a hurry to go in. After not seeing Uncle Fu for several months, the wrinkles on Uncle Fu's face increased a lot.

Whether you like it or not, time always

It will pass slowly.

The most conspicuous thing is the old man next to him.

"I've never seen him before, but he is quite young. He seems to be about the same age as the young master." Uncle Fu said with a smile.

I haven't spoken to Zhao Chen like this for a long time, so Uncle Fu couldn't help but say a few more words.

Looking at the young man in front of him who was seriously ill six months ago, he has now grown into the Wannian County Duke of the Tang Dynasty.

Fu Bo felt indescribably happy.

Elderly people always hope that their descendants will live a good life, at least not as hard as them.

Zhao Chen didn't know what to say. Looking at Uncle Fu's gray hair, he couldn't help feeling a little sad.

"Sir, please go in quickly. The village chief has been here for a while. There must be something urgent." Uncle Fu reminded him in a low voice when he saw Zhao Chen standing still.

"Well, okay." Zhao Chen nodded.

…

"Today, my father summoned Zhao Chen at the Li Zheng Palace, and they still had dinner in the queen mother's palace?"

In the Prince's East Palace, today is the day of rest.

Li Chengqian did not go to Chang'an Academy, but when he suddenly heard such news, he felt a little uncomfortable.

Changsun Wuji knelt down in front of Li Chengqian and shook his head gently.

He still can't figure out what kind of relationship Zhao Chen has with the emperor and empress.

Why is it that even the prince has not been to the Li Zheng Palace for a banquet for a long time, but Zhao Chen, a mere county official, can be invited there?

It's really just because of Zhao Chen's great contribution to Songzhou this time.

Even so, it would not involve the emperor and empress personally accompanying them.

How could he, Zhao Chen, have such great dignity?

But no matter how Changsun Wuji tried, there was no way he could get anything out of the emperor or the empress.

I had given the emperor a severe warning once before.

But it made Changsun Wuji more and more pregnant.

suspect.

Is Zhao Chen really the emperor's illegitimate son?

This thought came to my mind again, and I couldn't get rid of it anymore.

"This is what I heard from the palace." Changsun Wuji nodded.

"Why?"

"I haven't been invited to a banquet by my mother for a long time. How could he, Zhao Chen, be so virtuous?" Li Chengqian frowned tightly, with a look of dissatisfaction on his face.

The emperor and empress showed such concern and kindness to a child from the countryside, but their own son and prince did not ask any questions.

The queen would often send people over to greet her, but it had been half a year since she took the initiative to invite him over.

This is not unusual!

"Zhao Chen has made great achievements in Songzhou this time. Your Majesty is happy. It is not difficult to understand why he is being treated so favorably."

"The queen cares deeply about the Tang Dynasty. It is not strange to invite Zhao Chen to the banquet. Your Highness, just relax." Changsun Wuji could only comfort her like this.

He really couldn't think of any other excuse.

Even he himself didn't know what the situation was.

"Zhao Chen has returned to Chang'an and is expected to go to the academy in two days. Your Highness can take the opportunity to establish a good relationship with him."

"Zhao Chen is placed in great importance by His Majesty. Even if he does not fall in love with His Majesty, it is still a good thing to be friends with him based on his ability."

"We must not let King Wei take the lead in this matter." Changsun Wuji thought for a while and still felt that it was necessary to persuade Li Chengqian.

Although Zhao Chen's status is not high, he doesn't even have a serious official position.

But this does not hinder his status in the court at all.

Looking at the court, the person the emperor trusts most now is probably Zhao Chen.

In fact, this is understandable. If it were him, he would believe in this young man who has done miraculous things again and again.

"Well, I know." Li Chengqian responded, somewhat unwillingly.
