"Hiss!"
"If the Son of Heaven breaks the law, he should be punished the same as the commoners?”
When Li Shi Min heard this.
He couldn't help but gasp.
A moment later, he nodded." That's right. The law is indeed the foundation of a country. I've learned my lesson!"”
"What about Zhong Min?"
" Zhong Min…" Empress Zhangsun smiled lightly.
"Those who do not harm the country are the people!"
"The person who benefits the country is Wei Chen!"
"If you want to govern the people, you must first replace the subjects with the people. The people have the ability of the subjects, but not the name of the subjects!”
"Using the people to supervise the officials, using the officials to supervise the people, mutual benefit, no harm!”
Li Shi Min's expression changed drastically.
"The two are monitoring each other?"
"That's right. Why didn't I think of it before?”
"In this way, the people can supervise the officials, and the officials will manage the people!”
"The two sides are mutually restraining each other. We can't let those corrupt officials fish the villagers!”
"Instead, it will motivate those ministers to work for the people!”
"Wonderful, it's really wonderful!"
"Although it's the same sentence, the understanding of the two is worlds apart!”
Li Shi Min was extremely excited.
From time to time, he would slap his thigh, making loud slaps.
As for himself, he did not feel any pain at all.
When Empress Zhangsun saw this, her heart ached a little.
However, his face was filled with gratification.
It had been a long time since he had seen Li Shiming so excited.
"Guanyin maidservant, are there any more? What else did that expert say?"
Empress Zhangsun smiled and nodded.
"Second brother, you don't have to be so anxious. That person also said…water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it!”
"If we want the Great Tang to walk steadily and stand firmly, the people are the foundation, and those who win the hearts of the people win the world!”
"And if Second Brother wants to be a good emperor, how to win the hearts of the people is only the first lesson!”
"That person also said that it's actually very simple to satisfy those commoners!”
"As long as there is no war, no natural disasters, and they have clothes and food, they will naturally be satisfied!”
"As for the people who are satisfied, what else can they do other than supporting Second Brother?”
"Hiss!"
"Whoever wins the hearts of the people wins the world!"
"Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it?"
The more Li Shiming listened, the more excited he became. It was as if he had opened a new door to his worldview.
He immediately turned around and shouted outside.
"Quick, bring me a pen and paper!"
"Yes!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately received a response. Not long after, a young eunuch rushed in with a brush, ink, paper, and inkstone in his hands.
Li Shi Min turned around and lay on the bed.
He no longer cared about his identity.
"I'll write it down myself. Guanyin maid, continue, what else did that expert say?”
"Civil administration, strengthening the army…and, and diligent government, tell me everything…"
He looked at Li Shi Min's expression.
Empress Zhangsun smiled and nodded.
"A strong army means a strong country. This is an unchanging principle. On the contrary, a weak army means a weak country!”
"But if you want to strengthen your army, you can't use the current army as the foundation!”
"On the contrary, we have to strengthen our army first!”
"When the people are strong, the army will be strong, and when the army is strong, the country will be strong!”
"Only by doing this can the Great Tang truly become powerful!”
"If not, then it would be as the saying goes: weak countries have no diplomacy, and everyone will bully the Great Tang!”
"At that time, no matter how ambitious Second Brother is, how can he make the Great Tang the leader of all nations? How could he make those foreign countries bow down to him!”
"If we can't do this, how can the people live and work in peace, and how can the Great Tang maintain peace and prosperity?”
After Empress Zhangsun finished speaking.
Li Shi Min frowned and stopped writing.
"It's not that I haven't thought about this. When the people are strong, the soldiers are strong. Soldiers come from the people, and the people become soldiers!”
"But everyone knows about the current situation in the Great Tang!”
"The commoners can't even protect themselves. They don't have enough clothes to cover their bodies and food to fill their stomachs. How can they recruit a large number of troops? Moreover, the Great Tang's treasury was burdened with such a heavy burden that it simply couldn't support it!”
As soon as he finished speaking.
Empress Zhangsun smiled and nodded.
"Therefore, that expert suggested…helping the poor!”
"Helping the poor?"
Li Shi Min was stunned.
"The reason why the people are poor is mainly because of taxes!”
"Years of tax collection have made the people unable to breathe!”
"When will the situation improve? There's no hope at all!"
"If Your Majesty can reduce taxes in some places so that they can eat and wear good clothes!”
"I will naturally be grateful to Your Majesty. In less than three years, when the people become rich, the Great Tang will naturally become rich as well!”
"At that time, the national treasury will be abundant, the people will be strong, and the soldiers will be strong!”
"How can the Great Tang not win in a war?”
"The corresponding reduction of taxes in order to achieve the effect of strengthening the people and the army!”
"Within three years, everyone will become soldiers!”
"Let those idle soldiers go to the fields to cultivate!”
"Let those idle commoners train with the soldiers!”
"As time passed, the entire Great Tang became a soldier. Who would dare to invade?”
After saying that, Li Shi Min's face revealed an extremely excited expression.
"All the people are soldiers? Mutually beneficial?"
" Alright, alright…I'll write it down now. Guanyin maid, continue, continue…"
Therefore, Empress Zhangsun surrounded Li Shimin and talked about the diligent government.
Li Shiming was like a student in class.
He recorded down all the important points.
If he encountered someone he didn't understand or couldn't understand, he would ask a few questions.
Empress Zhangsun answered everything she heard from Han Xiu.
Instantly, Li Shi Min became even more excited.
However…there was another person in the Administrative Hall.
Princess Chang Le sat there and kept dozing off.
Every time she raised her head, she realized that her mother and father were still discussing this matter.
Naturally, she could not understand.
What exactly did he say to make his father so excited?
Today's third chapter is presented. There will be three more chapters later!
