Chapter 973

The next morning, after Qin Huaidao practiced martial arts and washed up, he was about to go to the palace and was going to thank him today, so Qin Huaidao changed into the prince's service with the help of the maid.

"Master, I'm still very handsome when I wear the prince's clothes!" Li Lixian stood there and said to Qin Huaidao with a smile.

"Hehe!" Qin Huaidao heard it and laughed.

"Have you gotten up yet? Let that kid get up and go to the palace together later!" Li Lixian asked to the maid beside him.

"Wake up, I'm probably wearing clothes now." A maid next to Li Lixian said.

Soon, Qin Huaidao and the others arrived at the living room.

After dinner, Qin Huaidao took Li Lixian and Qin Yuan to the palace together. Before he could reach Chengtian Palace, Wang En saw Qin Huaidao and ran to inform him in advance.

When Li Shimin waited for Qin Huaidao to come today, when Qin Huaidao came back yesterday, he handed over a lot of things to Li Shimin, mainly some experiences in the south, some information on local governance, and how to develop the economy in the south.

Li Shimin started reading last night. Qin Huaidao wrote a lot of things on this trip to the south, and Li Shimin attached great importance to these materials.

"Your Majesty, Prince Lu and Princess Chengyang are here, and the little prince is here too!" Wang En came in and said to Li Shimin.

"Oh, let him come in quickly and prepare the snacks. My grandson is here!" Li Shimin was very happy when he heard this, and immediately gave orders.

After a while, Qin Huaidao and Li Lixian brought Qin Yuan over.

"I've seen the Emperor Azu!" Qin Yuan went in, ran over and shouted loudly.

"Oh, my grandson has grown taller again and he speaks so clearly. Why didn't he come to see Azu for so long before?" Li Shimin hugged Qin Yuan, pinched his face lightly, and asked.

"Dad is not at home, my mother won't bring me here. Also, Azu, can you beat my mother?" Qin Yuan asked as he looked at Li Shimin.

"Why do you beat your mother?" Li Shimin asked with a smile when he heard this.

"She hit me yesterday, and I asked my dad, and he said he didn't dare to hit his mother. He said that the only one who could hit his mother was Azu. Azu, beat him up, I'll give you my favorite pastry!" Qin Yuan hugged Li Shimin's neck and acted coquettishly.

"You little brat, you dare not complain, come down!"

"Hahaha!" Li Lixian laughed angry when she heard this, while Li Shimin laughed.

"That won't work. Your mother beats you. That must be because you made a mistake, right? If you make a mistake, you will be beaten." Li Shimin happily hugged Qin Yuan and said.

"Father, let me hold it. This kid is very solid now. If you don't pay attention, you will be able to cause trouble for you. I just finished taking a shower last night and was playing wildly in the yard. After half an hour, I took two showers, so don't beat me?" Li Lixian said to Li Shimin with a smile, and took Qin Yuan at the same time.

"Okay, Lai Boping sit down and talk!" Li Shimin said to Qin Huai and others with a smile, and then sat down separately.

"The father has read the information you handed over yesterday. It's great. The development strategies of the cities and population in the south are very useful. The father is going to hand it over to Gao Ming to do it. At the same time, let the court discuss it. This time the smallpox problem has been solved. I believe that the population will increase a lot in the future.

Every time smallpox is not sure how many lives it will take, so in the future, population growth and economic growth, and land growth will be the first.

Some time ago, my father ordered the navy to dispatch two warships to go south along our coastline to spy on the waters in the south. My father also wanted to know how big the whole world is and whether our Tang Dynasty could occupy it. As long as it could occupy it, no one could shake the world of our Tang Dynasty at that time." Li Shimin said to Qin Huaidao.

Qin Huaidao heard this and nodded.

"In addition, it's the economy you mentioned. In the past few months, the business of the Hu people has been very good. My father also learned from the Ministry of Civil Affairs that the taxes brought by Hu merchants in recent years have increased by about 10% every month. Now it accounts for 30% of the business taxes in the Tang Dynasty, which is already amazing." Li Shimin continued to say to Qin Huaidao.

"There must be some. In fact, in the west, southwest, northwest, and northeastern regions, there are many civilized people. They are still very backward, but they have a large population, but we have not discovered it yet.

In the future, we need to fully control the north. At the same time, for those areas in the west, what should be controlled also needs to be controlled. We should do a good job in the construction of transportation to ensure that our land in the Tang Dynasty can mobilize troops to reinforce combat at any time. From the current point of view, our army in the Tang Dynasty still has no opponents." Qin Huaidao looked at Li Shimin and said.

"Well, now Goguryeo has been defeated by us, and there are no enemies in the northeast. In fact, I am worried that the Turks and the remnants of the Turks have fled to the west. During the Han Dynasty, our Central Plains army drove them to a very far place, but after a few decades, they will make a comeback. We still need to think of a complete solution!" Li Shimin nodded and said to Qin Huaidao.

"There must be a way. I will continue to chase and kill. But I can still take a break in the past two years. After all, my Tang Dynasty has just completed the battle against Goguryeo and Japan, so that the people of the world can rest." Qin Huaidao said to Li Shimin.

"That's a rest, by the way, what are your plans next? How many months of vacation do you need your father to give you?" Li Shimin asked with a smile as he looked at Qin Huaidao.

"Of course, the longer this is, the better. Otherwise, I will resign from the position of division commander, naval army commander, Dali Temple and the Ministry of Works?" Qin Huaidao touched his head and asked when he heard Li Shimin say this.

"That won't work!" Li Shimin shook his head very firmly and said.

"Father, Boping hasn't had a good rest in the past few years. Can't you let him take a break? Just leave the position of Siye in the university. He likes this, I think it's all for nothing!" Li Lixian begged to Li Shimin at this moment.

"What are you girls? Boping is a talented man. He can help his father solve many big things. If he resigns from office, he can't do that. At most, he can't do the position of division commander, but the navy commander still needs you to take charge. In addition, if you don't want to be a member of the Ministry of Works, it's okay if you don't want to be an official, but you need to promote an official. Dali Temple, you still need to be the minister of Dali Temple, otherwise, your father will not be at ease." Li Shimin asked Qin Huaidao.

"Ah, there is no suitable candidate for the Ministry of Works. However, the Dali Temple Minister has the right one. Chen Juhai and the others can take over at any time. On the Navy Governor's side, the son-in-law thinks that Zhang Jian is OK. After all, he was the Navy Governor before, and he must be very clear about how the navy army develops." Qin Huaidao looked at Li Shimin and said.

"Boping, the navy is very important. This must be someone who is completely at ease with the father. You have said before that the navy is the most important in future combat. You said that it is left to Zhang Jian. It is not that the father does not trust him, but how old he is, how many years can he hold it. Next, if he needs to fight against foreign countries, he can continue to command. The navy cannot be misunderstood, do you know?

It’s not that my father doesn’t want you to rest, but the navy really can’t find a suitable person. As for Dali Temple, my father can only give it to you now. It’s not that they are not capable, but that Dali Temple is too important. It’s just to check the officials. That’s my eyes. With you, no one can blind the eyes of my father. If it were someone else, my father would probably have been infiltrated long ago. They dared to recommend any official.” Li Shimin looked at Qin Huaidao and said to Qin Huaidao very seriously. He believed in these two positions, but others could not believe in them.

"This, Father!" Qin Huaidao was in a dilemma. He was already the prince, and he still had all the information about the officials in the court and the navy. If someone sued him for treason, he would not be able to explain clearly.

"What are you worried about? Are you worried that someone will falsely accuse you? What are you afraid of? What kind of person are you? My father doesn't know yet?" Li Shimin looked at Qin Huaidao and asked.

"I'm not afraid, my father, I am still so young now. I'm worried that I will make mistakes. Once I make mistakes, I may be doomed, so..." Qin Huaidao looked at Li Shimin in embarrassment and said.

"What mistakes are made? Corruption, is it possible? Do you dare to rebel? Just let your life be good? What kind of person are you? My father knows very well. You just hope that the people of the world can live a peaceful life. Otherwise, you will go to Yangzhou to treat those people suffering from smallpox. You are still worth such credit? You, you are too worried!" Li Shimin continued to say to Qin Huaidao.

"Father, it's not that Boping is worried about. My daughter has advised Boping. But, father, think about it, if Boping has such great power, there will inevitably be someone to get apart. Besides, if you let Boping be the governor of the navy, isn't this letting us leave the capital? My daughter doesn't want to leave the capital." Li Lixian sat next to Li Shimin at this moment, shaking his arm and said.

"Oh, Boping, you can't fall into the land of gentleness, this woman!"

"Father!" Li Shimin was just about to warn Qin Huai that women had long hair and short knowledge, so they should not listen to them. Li Lixian immediately shouted angrily at Li Shimin.

"Hiss, it's okay, Boping, listen to women's words!" Li Shimin realized that this was his daughter, not someone else's daughter.

"Hehe, Father, otherwise, I won't be the governor of the Navy. I suggest that it is very suitable for one person! Father, you know this person too!" Qin Huaidao said to Li Shimin with a smile. It was right to bring Li Lixian over to talk about this matter today.
