Li Shimin rolled his eyes.
When A Xuan and I were humiliated, you said it was my fault and A Xuan. Now that your brother is pushed to this position, why don’t you scold him for being your brother’s fault? My father is really biased.
Li Shimin privately complained to Li Xuanba: “My father will not be as partial as his grandmother in the future, right?”
Li Xuanba said: “It doesn’t matter, we won’t be that Duke of Tang.”
Li Shimin pouted and said: “You should comfort me, my father will not be partial.”
Li Xuanba said: “The chief inheritance system is a hurdle that cannot be avoided. It’s useless to care about these things now. Didn’t you say? Just do what you can do.”
Li Shimin was dissatisfied and said: “Can that be the same? Different, that’s the father, our father…”
Li Xuanba said: “Ah, are you going to cry again?”
Li Shimin covered his eyes and rubbed hard, put down his hand: “I didn’t cry.”
Seeing that Li Xuanba was like this, he wanted to ask his second brother to not trust Li Yuan too much, but now he is a little reluctant.
Li Xuanba comforted: “But this time my father was angry, not because he was biased towards his brother, but because His Majesty slapped our family twice, which was even more insulting.”
Li Shimin was speechless.
After a while, he picked up his pillow and hugged it in his arms, rolled around on the couch, and whispered: “Ah!!! Your Majesty is really…ah!!!!”
He rolled for a while, sat up, lowered his voice, and said mysteriously: “This cowardly Sui Dynasty, let’s go against it!”
Li Xuanba gave his second brother a blank look, too lazy to pay attention to his second brother’s nonsense, and picked up his pen to continue writing a travel guide for Yan Zhen and Xiang Gu.
After Li Shimin vented himself, he placed a pillow under his chest, and wriggled like a caterpillar before the case. He supported his hand and put his chin on the case: “Where do you care so much about the barbarian land?”
Li Xuanba wrote and said: “Where do you know the barbarian land? Do you know the four ancient civilizations?”
Li Shimin said: “Whenever you ask me if I know, it is obvious that I don’t know, so why do you ask nonsense?”
Li Xuanba’s pen dropped a dot on the paper.
He turned his head and rolled his eyes to his second brother, saying, “The world is very big. Although the Tang Dynasty stands on the top of the world, other civilizations are not without merit.”
Li Shimin said, “The Tang Dynasty does not exist yet. Ah Xuan, should you talk to me with your heart?”
“Oh.” Li Xuanba switched his heart, [Come on, I’ll draw a world map for you. 】
Although Li Xuanba cannot draw a detailed map, the outline of the world map is still fine.
Li Xuanba drew out the rough world map and used those placesThe specialty of the product is marked.
His world history is not good, and I don’t know how the development level of various countries was during the Sui and Tang Dynasties. It can only be inferred through the descriptions of merchants from the Western Regions.
However, with the scientific and technological level of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, it is unlikely that he will have too much communication with foreign countries, so his current understanding is enough.
Li Shimin’s eyes lit up: “Is the world so big? If only we had all these!”
Li Xuanba was about to explain why the territory of the Tang Dynasty could not be expanded too ruthlessly, but Li Shimin shook his head: “No, the territory is too wide and cannot be managed. If the court issued an edict and could not be conveyed to the place for several months, then this land was nominally the territory of the court, but in fact it was nominally the territory of the court, and it was no different from autonomy. It would be harmful or useless to manage it.”
Li Xuanba sighed.
Li Shimin was curious: “What are you sighing? Can’t bear to give up such a large piece of land? You can’t chew too much, don’t be greedy.”
Li Xuanba shook his head and smiled: “It’s hard for future generations to see clearly when standing on the shoulders of his predecessors. They all think that if you give you an army, you can occupy the world.”
Li Shimin asked: “Is there anyone in the future unified the world?”
Li Xuanba shook his head: “Even people in the future can’t do it.”
Li Shimin laughed: “Why do they think that their ancestors can do things that even future generations can’t do? If today is not as good as in ancient times, then future generations will be too useless. Later generations should have confidence. Don’t expect that their ancestors are better than them.”
Li Xuanba gave his second brother a thumbs up: “I want to write down your words.”
Li Shimin said: “Just remember.”
He sat up and stretched: “But you can’t occupy it. There are other ways to serve my Middle Earth. Let’s go out to sea together in the future. I want to see how wide the world is!”
Li Xuanba looked strange: “You probably can’t.”
