Chapter 517: The Dust Settles

At this time, Li Neng suddenly realized a problem. For a long time before, he might have demonized these officials, and felt that after he became emperors and had messed up Yuan Zai and others, he would do everything possible to guard against him.

But there is another one, that is, you are not afraid of being in a bad state. These people have actually done quite well.

If you do it well, the emperor will naturally believe you. Li Neng is not a suspicious person. If you doubt someone, you will naturally not doubt it because of doubt. So now he is almost sure that his control over the Tang Dynasty is absolutely fine.

"I naturally know the innocent heart of the Tang Dynasty. However, this time, I still have to trouble Liu Xiang and the Ministry of War. I have not attached great importance to the Dongmu Navy Army, so I have not written any new policies on the navy army for a long time. You must form a new policy according to my opinions on the navy, and then implement this matter. This time, I was assassinated in Henan Province, and Japan cannot stay anymore. The first thing after the navy expanded was to destroy Japan, so I don't want to delay this matter."

Although Liu Yan and others have already recognized Li Yan's idea, they also need to understand this matter.

After all, even the navy general Zhang Chong and others had never heard of it at this time. Such an important thing fell on him, especially when a lot of money was allocated. In the eyes of Liu Yan and others, everything else didn't matter, but at least a reliable person had to be put there, right?

"I went there this time just to investigate Zhang Chong, the general. If it doesn't work, I will naturally ask the Ministry of War to replace him. But now it seems that this person is still good and there is no need to be replaced. I will have regular correspondence with Hong Yuanqi. Within three years, I will go to Henan Road to see the changes he has made over the past three years. If it does not meet the requirements of our Tang Dynasty, he will naturally suffer."

There is no need to elaborate on Li Neng's cruelty. These people know clearly, so after saying this, Liu Yan and others naturally did not doubt that they had him.

As a result, although he suffered such a little setback, Li Neng was still very happy. He had finally implemented the naval plan that he had been thinking about for several months. Moreover, he had already hinted to Liu Yan and others that there would be no qualitative changes in this matter within three to five years, and he would not see any progress decades ago without encountering strong enemies at sea. However, this added a possibility of the development of the Tang Dynasty. What Li Neng really valued is obviously this.

This time, Li Neng still did not let everyone know what his real purpose was to develop the navy. Although he also said that there might be some unknown enemies in the distance, he never said that his ultimate goal was to dominate the world.

He didn't say that he was not confident in what he wanted to do, but he didn't want to cause too much discussion in the court. After all, the Tang Dynasty's naval army is not as powerful as it is not too late to talk about it when he has this strength.

After the court the next day, the most talked about by officials in the Tang Dynasty was why the Tang Dynasty spent so much money on the water army in Dongmu. After leaving the court, many officials were still talking about this matter.

"Your Majesty did a lot of work for the Tang Dynasty, but I can't understand why Your Majesty wanted to invest that very large amount of money into the Dongmu naval army? As far as I know, if Your Majesty hadn't spoken fiercely to the Secretary of the Six Ministry and several prime ministers after coming back this time, the Ministry of War would never have agreed to this matter so easily."

Indeed, in today's court, although this matter was spoken from the Minister of War, it was proposed by Li Qing, because Li Qing had just gone to Henan Road, which everyone knows.

Although Li Neng did not directly say that this was his plan in the court, even if Li Neng really said it, no one would dare to refute it, because Li Neng was famous in this court.

There have indeed been many people quarrel with Li Qing in the court before, but without exception, they have lost all their face in front of Li Qing's fair tongue. Li Qing, the emperor, was a clear conscience, but a few officials in the court had clear conscience, but it is not certain.

So this time more people dare not say anything. After all, even if they spend money, they will spend money in the Tang Dynasty treasury. Without their own money, they naturally have no reason to question this matter.

However, others dare not. There was no such thing as Liu Yan, the prime minister of the dynasty, in the court of the Tang Dynasty, who did not dare to do. He agreed because Li Yan had convinced him before, so when others quit, Liu Yan would naturally say a few words.

"You guys don't know that you have heard a word. If you don't have a long-term plan, you will have immediate worries. The same is true for the Tang Dynasty. There are often problems in the places you are most likely to pay attention to. Although Your Majesty has been leading troops to fight, he has always helped us officials in the court to check for shortcomings and make up for any of them. Your Majesty will naturally make up for it. The Dongmu naval army is one of them. The enemy has not come from the sea for decades. This is true, but this is not the reason for the reduction of personnel and stagnation of the Tang Dynasty naval army. Don't you want to know what is opposite the vast sea? Or will you wait until someone's warships drive to the sea of ​​my Tang Dynasty? You will know?"

Although Liu Yan was the prime minister and could not understand these complaints, he still used these slightly intense words.

Of course, this is not aimed at a certain person, but simply to awaken people like the one who made a complaint before.

Because Liu Yan was a child prodigy since childhood, and was highly valued by Li Qing at this time, he was actually very proud of himself. He felt that he had become a famous minister in the Tang Dynasty, so it is not an exaggeration to preach to his little brothers. Moreover, Li Qing still acquiesced to Liu Yan's behavior.

Li Yan once told Liu Yan that if you are an official with monotonous functions, then you will have no problem in putting all your energy into the new policy, but now Liu Yan is already in the high position of prime minister.
