Datang: Li Shimin begged me to rebel

Li Ke opened the prepared Wuliangye from the side and poured a glass for Sun Simiao. Old Sun drank alcohol, but he didn't drink much.

Because Lao Sun said that drinking alcohol is harmful to the body.

Picking up the wine cup and taking a sip, Sun Simiao continued to speak indifferently: "In the 18th year of the founding emperor, and the next few catastrophes, although I also went to the disaster area, I didn't go deeper, but only treated some marginal areas. some people."

"Because of going deep into the disaster area, no one can be rescued or survived."

"People who suffer from diseases need food in their bodies. Without food, they can't survive without magic medicine. Therefore, it is meaningless to go deep into the disaster area, because even if you save them, without food, their illness will soon disappear. deterioration."

"Sometimes, this world is like some folk custom of cockfighting, where a group of chickens fight, and the victor will survive."

"It's the same in this world. When the population of the people reaches a certain level and the world can't support them, there will be either natural or man-made disasters. If one group dies, the rest will naturally live on."

"As for what is so tragic, the Dao of Heaven cannot see it. This is why I named a Taoist priest. Sometimes I wonder if there is really a Dao of Heaven in this world that always maintains the balance of the world."

"Before I met you kid, I really didn't think about some truths carefully, but at that time, I just felt that this person and the surrounding mountains and water can always see a balance, just like the body of the human body. Yin and yang and five elements are the same. If one is broken, people will get sick."

"The people in this world and the mountains and rivers are also the same. If the land is planted too much, it will gradually become barren. If there is no fertilizer, no crops will grow. If no crops grow, people will reclaim more land and reclaim more land. It will destroy the land even more."

"Using what you are teaching now, too much reclamation destroys water and soil conservation, and then, the flood, natural disasters come. Speaking of it, everything is caused by humans."

"So, you have to pay attention to a balance in everything you do. It doesn't work if it's too good, and it doesn't work if it's too bad."

"Speaking of which, the only good thing Li Yuan did was probably giving birth to a good son like your father, and then your father gave birth to a good son like you."

"Without you, this Great Tang would not be able to achieve something unprecedented. Then there will be another cycle of the rise and fall of the dynasty."

"Either I say that you are amazing. You know a lot of truths in this world. It is not uncommon to be able to understand the truth. Just like "The Doctrine of the Mean" in the Four Books of Confucianism, it also pays attention to the golden mean and natural balance. But knowing the truth, and To implement the principles and the world to form a balance is a real skill."

"Oh, what is it called in school now?" Sun Simiao asked.

"Sustainable development?" Li Ke replied a few words.

"Oh yes, sustainable development, that's a good idea, and it's straightforward. Everyone can understand what it means."

"So, do you understand now how much you have accomplished?" Sun Simiao stretched out his hand, patted Li Ke's shoulder and asked with a smile.

Li Ke was silent for a while, and then smiled wryly: "To be honest, I didn't think about it. I just tried my best to do it, but I don't know how far I can go."

"I didn't think much of it before, but now you have said what you said, give me a whole lot of pressure."

Li Ke was a little helpless, and what he said was from his heart. Although he had been reforming and developing before, he had been working hard to build Datang into what he imagined.

But Li Ke never thought about what Sun Simiao said. In other words, Li Ke did this based on an obsession with countless regrets in ancient times formed by a person living in modern times more than 1000 years later, or It is said that in modern times, every Chinese has a dream of a great country and a dream of standing on top of the world.

It's just that he was an ordinary person in that era, and he had no ability, no opportunity, and no ability to carry out this dream.

But when I came back here, it seemed that I had to have this special attachment.

This is the driving force behind Li Ke's torment.

But Sun Simiao told Li Ke what he did based on 100 years of personal experience, 100 years of knowledge, and various experiences of living in this era.

It can be said that what Sun Simiao said was simple, but the pressure on the pavement was greater than any pressure Li Ke had thought before. At this time, Li Ke really realized that what Sun Simiao said was that the entire Tang Dynasty had 4000 million people and 4000 million people. Fate is on you, what does it mean to change because of you.

"Hahaha." Sun Simiao laughed suddenly, he poured the half cup of wine into his mouth, and then said with a smile: "Actually, I think that your heartless temperament is what you are doing now. The root cause of the Tang Dynasty's situation."

"If it were a person with deep thoughts and deep thoughts, he might not be able to do what he is today with his hands and feet tied."

"That's why, old man, I didn't leave when I first came to Chang'an. I can tell from those catastrophes that it wasn't me who could cure diseases and save people, but His Majesty sitting in the palace."

"But, all the rulers just want to live longer and live better. As for whether they can spread the world and save more people, they will only live longer if they have enough food and clothing. Next, pursue more spiritual prosperity before going back to consider saving the world, to win that reputation."

"At that time, when I stayed, what I did most was to see a doctor for the people in the imperial city and palace city of Chang'an City. So I prefer to travel around the world."

"But you are different. What you have done from the beginning is to start from the bottom of the people, from the people of the world. From the beginning, what you do is for them. I saw what I wanted to do in you. The possibility of promoting medicine to the world, cultivating more doctors and scholars, and helping the world and saving people.”

"This is why I, an old man in my 90s, finally decided to take the initiative to jump into this fire pit, come to Chang'an City, and sell you this rotten body." Sun Simiao said with a smile.

"You..." Li Ke didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "It's too ugly, I sincerely invited you here."

"Okay, you say yes, you really think that I have lived for more than 90 years, old man, and I can't see your temptation to me. Of course, I admit that I am also a human being, and I always have emotions. You really It pinpointed my heart, so I came." Sun Simiao said with a smile.
