After eating the meat and roasting it, Li Shi Min finally remembered the purpose of his trip.
Using the 'salt official camp' strategy to fill the national treasury was not difficult, but it was not simple either.
Even so many of the ministers who were full of knowledge and experience could not think of it, and his trusted aides and beloved ministers could not think of it either.
However, this little rascal of his casually muttered in his heart.
It would be a lie to say that Old Li was not surprised.
"I can hear the thoughts of this brat, which means that I am a person favored by the heavens.
For the Crown Prince to be so talented meant that this kid was a treasure bestowed upon the Great Tang by the heavens.
"I must use such a Saint Child well. I will definitely be able to build a prosperous era for the Great Tang.”
Thinking of this, Old Li smiled.
He looked at Li Chengqian with a bright face and asked kindly,
"Chengqian, let me ask you, as the crown prince of a country, do you have any great ambitions?”
Li Chengqian blinked his eyes and suddenly puffed out his chest and said loudly,"
"Replying to Imperial Father, your son will definitely work hard and study hard in the future to become a useful person.
To build a beautiful and harmonious Great Tang, to give up all his strength…
As the saying goes,'worry before the world's worries, and be happy after the world's pleasure', this is what your son is thinking.”
At this point, Li Chengqian took a deep breath, and his face bloomed with glory.
"Your son's ambition is very, very broad, and can be summarized in four sentences.
That was to establish a heart for heaven and earth, to establish a life for the people, to inherit the ultimate arts of the past saints, and to create peace for all generations!'”
Old Li was shocked.
His eyes were wide open, and he was completely speechless for a moment.
Just the words 'worry before the world's worries, and then rejoice after the world's pleasure', shocked him endlessly.
What kind of great spirit was this to be able to say such a shocking statement.
Even if he was the Emperor of the Great Tang, the ruler of a country, he had never thought of doing this!
And the last four sentences were even more shocking to Old Li.
"To establish the will of heaven and earth, to establish the lives of the people, to inherit the ultimate arts of the past saints, and to create peace for all generations!
Hiss! I can't compare to such lofty aspirations!”
Thinking of this, Old Li looked at Li Chengqian with even more fervent eyes.
If it wasn't for the fact that he had to care about his dignity as the emperor, he would have picked up his crown prince and nibbled on him.
With such a sensible crown prince, what did Old Li have to regret?
Thinking of this, Li Shi Min slowly said,"
"Chengqian, I am very comforted…"
However, before he could finish his praise, a strange thought appeared in his mind again.
Sigh, I knew Imperial Father would like to hear such words. It's simply invincible!
No wonder it was difficult to explain. I just casually said it, and Imperial Father was so happy.
How could Imperial Father not feel dizzy when those officials in the Imperial Court farted?
Actually, I don't want to improve at all. I just want to be a salted fish waiting to die.
If he could eat, drink, and have fun, then marry a beautiful Crown Princess and have a few fat boys in a few years…
While Li Chengqian was daydreaming, Old Li was fuming with rage at this moment.
The words of praise that he had prepared just now were stuck in his throat. He could not say them out and could not swallow them. It was extremely uncomfortable.
However, what made him feel the most uncomfortable was that he had actually been fooled by his little rascal's words!
When Old Li heard the little rascal's words, he was very gratified.
He felt that the Great Tang would have a successor and that his great cause would be safe.
But now that he suddenly heard Li Chengqian's true thoughts, Old Li felt like thunder was rolling.
With such a Crown Prince who only wanted to eat and wait for death, the Great Tang's future was probably bleak.
However, Li Shiming couldn't let his little rascal know that he could hear his thoughts.
Therefore, even if he wanted to get angry, he couldn't.
He could only suppress all the depression in his heart.
This was because what Li Chengqian said on the surface was not a problem at all.
How dare you say that he was wrong when he said such lofty ideals?
At this moment, Old Li suddenly felt that it might not be a good thing to be able to hear his little rascal's thoughts.
However, Li Chengqian did not know the inside story. At this time, he inadvertently came over and started to add on,
"Imperial Father, do you think there is a problem with your son's ideals?”
Old Li almost fainted at his question.
He finally came back to his senses and nodded with a stiff expression.
Chengqian's dream is very good, cough cough…very good…"
Old Li felt bitter in his heart.
He clearly heard his little rascal say that he wanted to be a salted fish, but he could only pretend not to know at this moment.
"This brat is too detestable. As the crown prince of a country, he actually wants to laze around and wait for death.
Hmph, I can't do as you wish. Since you said you want to work hard and study hard, hmph…"
As the Emperor of the Great Tang, Li Shi Min was not to be trifled with.
At this moment, he recovered his senses and his expression returned to normal. He said,
"Chengqian, since you have such great ambitions, I will definitely support you.
From today onwards, Imperial Father will find all kinds of learned scholars to give you lectures and not let you waste your time.
Since you want to bring peace to the world, you can't do it without enough foundation.”
This time, it was Li Chengqian's turn to be stunned.
However, Old Li's words were not finished. He patted Li Chengqian's shoulder hard and said in a trembling voice,
"My crown prince, if you want to achieve something, you must first learn to endure hardship.
I will torture your bones, starve your skin, and trouble your mind…I will increase what you can't…"
Looking at the serious Old Li, Li Chengqian suddenly felt like he was going to be tricked.
He wanted to cry but had no tears as he looked at Old Li, who had a serious expression on his face.
"Imperial Father, don't say anymore. I was wrong. I was wrong, okay?
What was wrong with me just now to actually say such a lofty ideal?
Actually, I was just joking. Why did you take it seriously?”
Old Li, who had heard Li Chengqian's thoughts at the same time, finally felt the grievance in his heart disappear.
He laughed and said,"
"Chengqian, zhen is very touched by your expression, there is no need to act like this.
As your Imperial Father, it is only right for me to think about you, hahahaha.
I'll go pick a learned scholar for you now. You can go to Chongwen Hall in the afternoon to listen to the scholar's lecture.”
Old Li suddenly became resolute and decisive. After saying this, he turned and left.
Li Chengqian was left sitting on the spot in a daze, unable to come back to his senses for a long time.
"It was so difficult. I only understand now.
So if you want to be a salted fish, it's best not to even boast, or else…"
