Chapter 530: The Greatness of the World
"Great! Jialuo is truly a female Zhuge Liang, hahahaha"

Li Yuanhui clapped his hands and laughed.

Isn't this just muddying the waters?

The prince in your family is noble, and your elder brother and second brother's families are also descendants of the imperial family. If these royal titles are just wandering around on the battlefield, what does it matter if you have the title of commander-in-chief?
Li Yuanhui immediately ordered people to summon Zhao Wang Li Cheng'an, Shu Wang Li Chengqian, Zheng Wang Li Chengtai, Ande Wang Li Yanzong, Lanling Wang Li Changgong, as well as his own two sons, Chengyang Wang Li Chengping, Beihai Wang Li Chengdao.

Li Cheng'an served as a county magistrate for several years and made great achievements in both civil and military affairs. Li Yanzong and Li Changgong also followed the army to fight and participated in the war to destroy the Western Wei Dynasty and made military achievements.

In comparison, Li Yuanhui admired the boys from the eldest house very much.

As for the two from my second brother's family, one is a bit rebellious and the other is a bit cunning.

As for the two of us, they were just there to make up the numbers, and they were still children. But this trip was also a chance for them to broaden their horizons.

In the hall, the next generation of the Li family stood in a row. They looked at Li Yuanhui's serious expression and were also worried. "Some time ago, our army won a great victory in the Battle of Ruxu, annihilated 100,000 Wei troops, beheaded more than 30,000, and the Eastern Wei was seriously injured. The day before yesterday, I reported to His Majesty about the matter of attacking Wei, and His Majesty has approved it. Now the army is attacking Wei. You are all descendants of the Li Tang royal family. It is your duty to serve the country. Starting tomorrow, you will all set off and serve in the army. Even if you can't do anything, you must learn military affairs. My Longxi Li family established the country with military force. Your brother, King Jin Chenghui, is the commander-in-chief of this attack on Wei."

The older ones naturally understood after hearing this, that Fourth Uncle was asking them to gain some experience.

But the two little ones are only eleven years old, so they are naturally a little confused. Are they going to let them go to war?
Li Chengdao asked excitedly: "Father, are you asking me to go to war with my brothers?"

Li Chengping was also very excited.

Li Yuanhui looked at his two sons and said, "What kind of war can you fight? This time I want you to go to the army to gain some experience and learn the difficulty of using troops. When you go there, you will listen to Cheng'an. Do you understand?"

They both said in unison: "Yes, Aye."

No matter what, being able to go outside is a very happy thing for children or young people.

Li Chengqian was not very happy. He just wanted to ask, "Why?"
It's not that he has any resentment towards his fourth uncle. Although Li Chengqian is a bit rebellious, he is actually sensible. After his father passed away, his mother asked him to come to Luoyang with his brother to avoid disaster.

After arriving in Luoyang, Fourth Uncle treated them like his own children, and selected some of the former Sixth Commander of the Eastern Palace to serve as guards for them. Although his treatment was strict, it was really a good thing for them.

But what about Li Chenghui? We can only go for training, but you are directly promoted to marshal? Why?

Is your father the emperor? My father was the emperor too. My father conquered most of the Tang Dynasty. If my father were still alive, would it be your turn to be the marshal?

Li Yuanhui could see Li Chengqian's resentment at a glance.

So after the others left, he was kept. "Cheng Qian, you stay and walk with me."

Li Chengqian was a little surprised, but he immediately responded, "It's Fourth Uncle."

In September, the weather was clear and the corridors in the palace were covered with yellow fallen leaves.

Li Yuanhui walked in front and looked at the fallen leaves on the ground. He looked up and saw another group of geese flying south. He suddenly felt lonely.

"Cheng Qian, I heard that Cheng Hui became the marshal. Do you feel that this position should be yours?"

After hearing this, Li Chengqian was a little stunned. Is Fourth Uncle too scary? He guessed this?

"To reply to Fourth Uncle, I am somewhat dissatisfied with me."

Li Yuanhui sat by the railing and looked up at him. "When our Tang Dynasty conquered the world, your grandfather, your father, your third uncle, me, your uncle, and our clan relatives, relatives and old friends all contributed. Among them, your father, your third uncle and I made the greatest contributions, which led to the Golden Casket Alliance."

"Fourth uncle, but I don't think Third uncle wants to keep the covenant."

Li Chengqian's words seemed to have directly lifted a lid.

Li Yuanhui smiled when he heard this, and then said: "Whoever sits on that position will change, but I never expected to get it by just a piece of alliance." Li Chengqian was silent when he heard this.

Li Yuanhui continued, "Cheng Qian, you must remember that you are the eldest son of Emperor Taizong Wen of the Tang Dynasty. Your father once had high hopes for you. Your father began to use the army when he was young, and for more than ten years, he was invincible and undefeated. He left behind a great reputation. When he raised his arm, heroic men from Guanzhong gathered to follow him. This is far from what a marshal can get. Do you understand?"

After hearing this, Li Chengqian was somewhat moved. "Fourth Uncle, I..."

"Okay, that's all I have to tell you today. This world is huge, much bigger than you think. It can accommodate the four bloodlines of the Tang Dynasty. Your father is gone now, and you are his successor. His reputation is much more important than an emperor's throne!"

After hearing these words, Li Chengqian felt that his entire aura changed instantly.

What will emerge from the interweaving of the reputation of the fathers, one's own indignation, and the young people's desire to achieve success?

Li Yuanhui is looking forward to it.

In fact, Li Yuanhui had already made plans for the future arrangements of the fourth room, emulating the Mongol Empire.

Temujin's son established the Four Khanates, so why couldn't the Tang Dynasty do the same? Li Yuanhui wanted to try it. Instead of internal involution, it would be better to divert the conflict.
However, these are just empty talk and ideas at the moment. The first problem to be solved is still to unify the Central Plains.

Li San is coming, and we can talk to him about this. The two brothers need to have a frank talk.

Sure enough, this man was different after he became emperor.

Li Yuanhui then ordered the gathering of Hu merchants from all over Luoyang and ordered them to draw maps of various countries in the Western Regions.

At the same time, Li Yuanhui began drawing a world map in his study alone.

Relying on memory, the general shape of the plate was depicted.

The first thing to do is to mark out the surrounding neighbors: the Turks in the north, Tuyuhun, Tubo, and the Western Regions in the west, Goguryeo in Liaodong, and Jiaozhi in the south.
He wanted to point to this map and let Li Sanlang know how big the world is and whether it was necessary for our Li family to fight among our brothers for such a small piece of land.

However, the first people to be shocked were the women in the palace.

When Li Yuanhui drew a rough map in the hall, Princess Murong Jialuo was surprised that the Central Plains was actually included in this map and it did not seem to be very big.

Afterwards, all the female relatives came to see the picture drawn by Li Yuanhui and his people under the pretext of sending food and drinks.

"Is the world so big?"

Li Yuanhui did not think that everyone was ignorant about their surprise, because it was never their fault.

It's just because the times are different.

This gap in perspective cannot be made up with a few words or a few classes. Even Li Yuanhui had no intention of letting them know about the stars, the universe, and the world.

For many people, ignorance is even bliss.

The higher one's cognition and vision are, the harder it is to be satisfied, because one wants more.

That is why big men rarely get their way.

And if the big shots really do whatever they want, then the world may suffer.

So was Guangshen, so was Xuanzong, and so was Emperor Daojun.
