Chapter 2047 Did His Royal Highness Really Say That?
In other words,
Since ancient times, any emperor, especially one who is more powerful, has a higher level, and has certain achievements.
We often face a dilemma, that is, we can't find our successor, and no one among our descendants can pass on our will.
This is often even the biggest heartache of those outstanding monarchs in their lives.
Of course, Li Er was no exception. Except for Li Sheng, the special one among the children under his knees, the rest were just as he said when he first evaluated Wei Wu. A general is more than enough, but a man of ten thousand chariots is not enough.
Li Ke, Li Tai, Li Zhi, these children are all excellent, but when it comes to entrusting them to an empire, it is obviously not enough.
Of course, when it comes to choosing an heir, according to the rules, the best option is the eldest son, that is, the child of Qian, which is the safest.
Li Er couldn't help but shake his head just thinking about Ke Chengqian's child. He felt that it was a bit difficult for this child to let him inherit the great cause, regardless of whether it was good or not.
Compared to these men, Changle was at least more concerned about the fate of the Tang Dynasty. Such an attitude was at least excellent.
Among the men under my knees, apart from other things, there are very few who have this kind of heart.
but,
Although he felt quite touched, Li Er also felt slightly disappointed.
Changle was interested in the fate of the Tang Dynasty, which was a good thing, but the Tang Dynasty was a big empire after all.
Just having good intentions is really not enough. If Changle becomes a courtier of the Tang Dynasty in the future, it may be a good thing and can play a role in the future of the Tang Dynasty, but it is obviously not enough to inherit the great cause.
Thinking about the dilemma he had encountered recently, Li Er secretly shook his head even harder. Many of these things were really difficult to handle.
but.
Although he was melancholy and worried about the future of the Tang Dynasty, Li Er also knew that at this critical moment, as a king, he had to be calm and rational, and at the same time remain sharp, otherwise the situation would be solved in the Year of the Monkey and the Horse in the Month.
After thinking for a while, Li Er shook his head and asked Xiaofeng to continue reporting.
It's just that I'm a little distracted.
No matter what new thing Li Sheng creates, although it is definitely a good thing, it is probably not enough to solve the current predicament of the Tang Dynasty.
but.
After a while.
Li Er's eyes gradually widened.
"His Royal Highness the Holy King really said that?"
Suddenly, Li Er's eyes widened greatly when he looked at Xiaofeng, showing a look of surprise.
Extremely surprised!
At this moment, Li Er seemed to have discovered the most mysterious and incredible thing in the world.
The sudden change in expression even frightened the eunuchs beside him. In an instant, several eunuchs looked at each other and began to exchange glances on the spot - the emperor was angry and wanted to deal with it, right?
Although Li Er was considered a very sensible person with a pretty good personality among the ancient emperors, he was a companion to the emperor like a tiger, and the several eunuchs and guards who served Li Er in the Manlu Palace were all very cautious.
However, Li Er didn't pay attention to the expressions and demeanor of these servants at all. At this moment, Li Er felt that his brain was a little dazed.
What's happening here.
I originally thought that no matter what kind of work Li Sheng did this time, no matter what Changle was excited about, he just sent all the personal maids back to the palace with such enthusiasm, it was probably impossible to solve the problem of Datang.
The dilemma we are currently facing.
In other words, the Tang Dynasty now had two, or to be precise, four strategic directions to deal with the dilemma it faced in its confrontation with the Romans.
The first is the northwest, from the northwest to the European continent. This line is very important to China. After all, the northwest of China is the heart of the World Island. Since the Tang Dynasty has ambitions to aspire to the throne, such an important place is of course the place to eat.
deal.
The second one is naturally Nanyang, which is the main direction of Datang's foreign trade activities at this stage. It is also an important source of financial resources for the entire Tang Dynasty. It can even be said to be the main financial source.
Naturally, you have to hold such an important thing tightly in your hands. People must at least be responsible for their own jobs in life.
The third and fourth items are America and Australia.
However, consolidating the first two items was already a huge drain on Datang's administrative capabilities. Whether it was conquering Europe through the northwest or ensuring that there were no problems with the Nanyang trade routes, it was already a very difficult task.
Including America and Australia, many things are even more complicated. All in all, it is extremely stressful.
With such great pressure, Li Er would certainly not expect his children to secretly work together to solve the problem. Although Li Sheng is a special child,
After all, this is the empire's grand foreign strategy, isn't it? Even Li Sheng, thinking about it, wouldn't be able to solve everything just by doing something.
However.
Following Xiaofeng's report, Li Er's surprise was simply beyond words.
This kid Li Sheng really did his best!
At first, I thought that this kid had created something to use again. If that was the case, it would be the best thing, because this kind of solution is often the most direct solution, such as gunpowder, grenades, and the like a long time ago.
But as time went on, Li Er was the king after all, and he himself was directly responsible for the fate of China, so he did not dare to expect such beautiful things. As a result, many things seemed a little helpless. After all, even Li Er
If Shengdu tied his hands, what else could others do, but in the end, this variable happened just as soon as it was announced.
This kid Li Sheng actually managed to do something right! Although he didn't come up with something new that directly solved the problem as he had expected before, it did indeed solve the problem.
Li Er's face was full of shock, surprise, and many emotions condensed on his face, and his expression was very complicated for a while.
this.
"I can't believe it can happen like this."
"First take Australia, and then use Australia's resources as a basis for the imperial court's strategic purposes to capture America. But in this way, it seems that the Romans can do the same."
Li Er suddenly thought of this - and for a moment, he felt an inexplicable sense of "clearness" in his heart.
This idea sounds wonderful and magical, but if you think about it carefully, it seems that there are obvious hidden dangers.
This made Li Er frown. Could it be that the development of the Tang Dynasty was really going to falter?
Of course, saying this seems a bit harsh. After all, in the Tang Dynasty, even a broken ship has three thousand nails. What's more, the Tang Dynasty's national power is so strong. As time goes by, Xu Xu Tuzhi should still be able to find opportunities to expand the situation.
of.
But this was not beautiful after all. Li Er felt depressed and saw Xiaofeng still in front of him, so he asked, "What else did the princess say?"
