You said that the Eighth Prince should just drink water, but he was like a buffalo, drinking a lot and making loud noises.

At this moment, Li Shimin suddenly frowned, looked at Wei Zheng, and said, "Zheng Guogong, what do you think of the advice I gave Zhao Guogong just now?"

"Ah? This, this... Your Majesty, I..."

Wei Zheng was immediately speechless.

Because he had been talking to Li Chengfeng just now and had not listened to the entire conversation between Changsun Wuji and Li Shimin.

Li Shimin became angry instantly, slapped the dragon chair with his big hand, and shouted: "Mr. Zheng, how can going to court be a child's play? I am discussing world affairs with Duke Zhao, but you are wandering aside? Mr. Zheng, do you know your guilt?"

Is Li Shimin angry? Wei Zheng was instantly frightened and hurriedly knelt on the ground and said: "Your Majesty, forgive me! Yes, it was the Eighth Prince who kept making some strange noises in my ears, so that I could not hear the Emperor's words clearly.

Holy Word!"

"Feng'er..."

Li Shimin frowned and looked at Li Chengfeng.

But Li Chengfeng opened his eyes wide and said: "Wei Zheng is lying. I have never talked to him. He has been quarreling with me. If you don't believe it, Eunuch Wu can testify!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, the eighth prince of the Nu family has never disturbed anyone with words, but Duke Zheng, on the other hand, has been talking to the eighth prince!"

As Li Chengfeng's servant, Eunuch Wu must be standing by Li Chengfeng's side.

Li Shimin gave Wei Zheng a cold look.

Deceiving the emperor is a crime of beheading!

What's more, Wei Zheng also slandered that it was the Eighth Prince who had disturbed him. Isn't this tantamount to slapping Li Shimin in the face?

Li Shimin said: "Wei Zheng, you must give me an explanation today!"

Wei Zheng knelt on the ground and said in fear, "Your Majesty, I know my crime, I know my crime!"

"Humph, you are the prime minister of the dynasty, but you don't listen to the important affairs of the country and just wander around? Come on, drag Wei Zheng out and beat him thirty times!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

So Wei Zheng was dragged out and spanked by Li Shimin's order.

At this moment, Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui broke out in cold sweat.

They knew that despite Li Chengfeng's young age, he was only six years old.

But this little cute kid has a lot of clever ideas.

The two of them thought that no matter who they offended in the future, they could not offend the Eighth Prince.

Otherwise, if it gets serious, it won't be as simple as getting slapped with a brick. Maybe the hats on their heads will fall off!

If it's serious, you may even lose your head.

Li Shimin certainly knew that Wei Zheng must have been distracted by Li Chengfeng's quarrel.

But the royal majesty cannot be lost.

If you want to teach Li Chengfeng a lesson, you should teach him a lesson yourself, not Wei Zheng!

So, Li Shimin looked at Li Chengfeng with a smile and said, "Eighth Prince, what do you think of the opinions I gave Duke Zhao just now?"

Li Shimin originally thought that Li Chengfeng would never be able to answer.

Regardless of whether he listened or not, even if he did, what else could a six-year-old child say besides clapping and applauding?

However, Li Chengfeng was seen shaking his little head and said: "No, I don't think it's possible!"

"no?"

"What? Eighth Prince, please stop making trouble, okay?"

"That's right, Eighth Prince, do you understand what national affairs are? You don't understand, so don't get involved or make the emperor angry!"

Li Chengfeng actually dared to say no in front of Li Shimin?

Could it be that the father and son are going to start slapping each other in the face again?

Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui were both begging Li Chengfeng to stop talking.

However, Li Chengfeng said: "Father, although your method can solve temporary natural disasters, it cannot be implemented for a long time! It can be said to treat the symptoms but not the root cause!"

"Oh? Then I would like to hear from Huang Er, how can you come up with a permanent solution?"

Li Shimin was a little shocked.

Seeing Li Chengfeng talking about his shortcomings with confidence, Li Shimin was not upset.

Since Li Chengfeng said that his method is to treat the symptoms, what about the root cause?

Just listen to Li Chengfeng's eloquent words: "Father! Duke Zhao Guo said before that there will be a severe drought this year, the people will be short of water, the grain harvest will be reduced sharply, and the people will not be able to make a living!"

"And the solution given by my father is: open the treasury, release the granaries, relieve the people, and survive the drought!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, do you think there is anything wrong with this method?"

Li Shimin stroked his beard and looked at Li Chengfeng with interest.

Over the years, when there have been droughts, floods, locust plagues, and when people have been short of harvest, haven't they always relied on the state treasury to open warehouses and release grain to solve the problem?

Could it be that Feng'er has a better way?

Li Chengfeng cleared his throat and continued: "Father, I think there is nothing wrong with opening the treasury to help the people every time there is a natural disaster. However, sooner or later, this will deplete the treasury's grain storage!"

"Yes, but if I don't open the granary and help the people all over the world, how can I bear it?"

"Then the problem comes!"

Li Chengfeng smiled and said: "Father, within the borders of our country, the Tang Dynasty, there are abundant waters in the south and droughts in the north all year round! Every time there is a hot summer, there will be drought in the north, and every rainy season, there will be waterlogging in the south..."

"Why not..."

After saying this, Li Shimin's eyes suddenly widened. Could it be that Feng'er really has nothing else to do?

Li Chengfeng continued to speak and said: "Why not, my father, build a giant reservoir to store water in the south! During the rainy season, the reservoir will be filled with water so that the people in the south can avoid being flooded! My father is building a transparent bridge between the north and the south.

The Grand Canal. Whenever there is a drought, the gates are opened and water is released, and the water in the southern reservoir is transferred to the north! In this way, isn’t it possible to get the best of both worlds?”

"Boom boom boom..."

After listening to Li Chengfeng's statement, Li Shimin's mind felt like it exploded and he suddenly became enlightened.

All civil and military officials in the court were surprised and looked at Li Chengfeng with incredulous eyes.

This idea seems simple, but no emperor or minister in the past dynasties could come up with such an idea!

Now, from the mouth of a six-year-old cute baby, can this not surprise Li Shimin and others?

And this idea is really too advanced.

Li Shimin never dared to imagine that Li Chengfeng would dare to use human power to fight against God's will with his words?

Could it be that this is the legendary victory of man over nature?

And this idea is good and feasible!

As long as the reservoir and the Grand Canal are completed, won't the difficulties that have troubled the people in the years of natural disasters that have troubled emperors for countless years be solved?

"Father, what do you think of my son's thoughts?"

"Hahaha, okay, Feng'er, you have really helped the country a lot!"

Li Shimin laughed excitedly, his hands trembling.

Li Chengfeng rubbed his nose playfully.

Of course, if the South-to-North Water Diversion Project was a 21st century forward-thinking idea, anyone who could come up with it in the Tang Dynasty would be a genius among geniuses!

After Li Shimin became happy, he pursed his lips again.

I have to say that Li Chengfeng really helped the country a lot this time.

And Li Shimin also admitted that Li Chengfeng was really a genius in the national destiny.
Chapter completed!
