Lie on the bed staring at the roof in a daze. In a trance, Li Chengqian realized that the most useful course after traveling through time was...Ma Zhe.

This is outrageous. I had known that I should have studied it carefully, otherwise I would not be able to understand the relationship between the aristocratic families and nobles.

Too complicated.

How to balance the interests of each company and how to sort out a path to success in the chaotic interpersonal relationships.

Did you think too simple about inheriting the emperor?

After only a few months of traveling to the Tang Dynasty, except for the old man's loyal fans, everyone else was basically offended.

It would be nice if a prince with enemies all over the world was not killed. If you want to be an emperor, you are afraid that you are not trying to lose money.

He turned over and sat up from the bed, called Yun Xi, and went straight to the Imperial Study.

This matter must be discussed with the old man, otherwise he will feel unhappy.

"I figured it out? I thought you would wait for another year or two before you realize this problem." Li Lao Er was not surprised by Li Chengqian's arrival for three days on the winter solstice. It can even be said that he had a good time to take the tea and greet his son to sit beside him. Then he said slowly: "No matter when, eating alone is not possible. Even though you are the prince, I have me to support you, it is too easy for the people below to perfunctory you, so you don't have to spend any effort."

"Father, I don't understand the key here, I'm just angry. The five surnames and seven hopes, and the wealthy people in Shandong, think that they can control the court? What is the interests that are really so important to them?"

Li Chengqian grabbed the tea with the right temperature and poured it directly into his stomach, as if he wanted to extinguish the fire of resentment in his heart, but it did not work in the end.

Li Shimin looked at his depressed son and felt quite pleased. Being able to realize the harm brought by the aristocratic family shows his extraordinary qualities, but how to say some things, finding a problem does not mean that it can solve the problem.

"You have to endure it even if you are angry. Do you think I don't know the disadvantages of the aristocratic family's ruling and ruling bureau? Do you think I don't want to completely clear the influence of the aristocratic family from the court? Chengqian, things are not as easy as you think. The reason why aristocratic family is powerful is that its ubiquitous influence lies in its ubiquitous network of relationships."

Speaking of this, Li Shimin suddenly sighed: "Everyone in the world said that I killed my brother and my brother, and I was as cruel as a tiger, but I didn't know that both me and your uncle were involuntarily at that time.

Let me tell you this. The actual situation at that time was a dispute over interests between the Guanlong Group and the Shandong gentry. Your uncle represented the Guanlong family, and I represented the Shandong gentry. Both sides had already fought for their own interests and were not controlled by us at all."

Hold the grass!

Holding a big grass!

This passage must be recorded and then found a place to hide it. The Emperor of the Ages has personally told the background of the Xuanwu Gate Incident, which is much better than the vague history deduced by later generations.

Li Shimin seemed to be immersed in memories, and did not care about Li Chengqian's reaction. He subconsciously took a sip of tea and continued: "Emperor Yang Guang, actually, had long realized the problem that the aristocratic family was too big. At that time, the Guanlong family was far stronger than the current Shandong gentry. The army was all in the hands of the Guanlong family, and the country's economy was also controlled by the Guanlong family. If it were you, what would you do?

The three campaigns of Goguryeo are not so great that Yang Guang was very happy with his achievements, but rather that he was using a knife to kill people to consume the military strength of the Guanlong family. Otherwise, why would Goguryeo make the Great Sui Dynasty lose millions of soldiers? It would be a huge joke.

However, Yang Guang was still too eager for quick success and was eventually taken advantage of by the Guanlong family.

Don’t look at me, that’s right, our family was also one of the Guanlong family at that time. Otherwise, you would have thought that you could have won Chang'an in just a few months?"

Li Chengqian finally connected all the things before and after, and said with a wry smile: "That's why my uncle got the support of the Guanlong family. The Shandong gentry, who realized that the Guanlong family was gradually declining, took the opportunity to raise the trouble and secretly supported you. Finally, there was the bleeding night of Xuanwu Gate, right?"

Li Shimin nodded: "Not bad! Your uncle and fourth uncle said that he died at my hands, but rather that he died at the back of the Shandong gentry. But how to say this, the public opinion in the world is ultimately in the hands of those wealthy families. Who cares about the truth?"

Well, the old man seemed to be quite frustrated when he saw this.

Of course, it is hard to say that who is the victim. After all, the old man finally received the throne. The dispute over interests between the aristocratic families certainly affected Li Jiancheng and Li Laoer, but the old saying goes, flies do not bite eggs without sewn. If Li Jiancheng and Li Laoer had not used the idea of ​​using the wealthy families of the aristocratic families, this would not have happened.

So there is nothing right or wrong in this matter, everything is caused by interests.

Outside the window, the moon shadows were already sinking, and the candlelight in the room was flashing. Li Lao Er was immersed in the memories, obviously he could not continue to talk.

However, Li Chengqian's purpose was basically achieved. A long conversation with the old man made him realize the strength of the aristocratic family, and at the same time, it also made him feel an unprecedented fighting spirit.

If you take life and death lightly, do it if you don’t accept it.

Isn’t it just the five surnames and seven hopes, the influence, the network of relationships, and all obstacles are paper tigers in the face of huge interests. “Father, how do you think we are going to run a newspaper?”

"What newspaper?"

"It's the kind that is similar to the divine newspaper, but the circulation is larger. It is aimed at the people of the world. It can publish some new policies in court, some strange stories, and most importantly, it can grasp the right to speak and guide the people's thoughts."

Li Chengqian leaned over to the old man: "Son-in-law thinks so. We can set up a new news agency to be responsible for news supervision. If you want to run a newspaper, you must report it at the News Agency. Of course, we also need to set up a more authoritative official newspaper to guide public opinion."

In the Tang Dynasty, no one knew the power of public opinion better than Li Chengqian. It can be said that whoever grasps the initiative of public opinion will be invincible in the subsequent struggle.

As for the fact that 90% of the people in the Tang Dynasty did not know the word, this is actually not important.

His Majesty the great emperor seemed to understand something under the reminder of Li Chengqian and frowned: "Are you sure this is OK?"
