Chapter 526 Pei Xingjian's Boost

"I have seen my father and my mother."

Prince Li Xian came very quickly. It was only more than a quarter of an hour after the little eunuch who went to summon him. He hurried into the imperial study, his face was covered with sweat. Obviously, he walked in a hurry and his face was not very good. Originally, his face was full of haggardness, but he was only twenty-three years old. He looked forward to pass. It seems that middle-aged people have lived a comfortable life over the years. Since the reign of the Empress Wu, Li Xian has been increasingly marginalized. Although he has been working hard, he is getting farther and farther away from the political core. There is basically no room for major affairs in the court. Li Xian can't do anything without Wuhou's nod. Under the long-term depression, people are getting older faster, and their hearts can't be relieved.

"Well, the military newspaper in Hexi is with you?"

Gao Zong was very unhappy. He didn't look a little embarrassed because the prince was very polite. He didn't even shout, so he went straight to the point.

"Ah, oh, in the words of my father, there is indeed a military newspaper of Hexi in the child's place, which was sent by the mother to transfer it to the child the day before yesterday."

Hearing Gao Zong's bad tone, Li Xian's body couldn't help trembling slightly. Some of them raised their heads in surprise, hesitated twice, and then rushed to report.

"Why don't you report it to me, huh?"

Gao Zong was not relieved by Li Xian's explanation. On the contrary, his face was more ugly and he snorted unhappily.

"This..."

Hearing that Gao Zong was chasing this military newspaper, Li Xian's face inevitably became a little bitter - the day before yesterday, he sent people to report the Hexi Army to the East Palace, saying that he asked him to draw up a strategy for the use of the court discussion. Li Xian accepted the military newspaper, but he didn't pay attention to it. One didn't want to Doing such a thankless thing, secondly, I didn't want to see Li Xian continue to make contributions, so I didn't pay attention to it. I planned to take care of it after the Mid-Autumn Festival, but I didn't expect Gao Zong to know about the military newspaper and asked endlessly. This made Li Xian inevitably suspect that it was the Empress Wu who was summoned this time. Because of chewing the root of the tongue, my heart is bitter, but I don't know where to start.

"It's so bold. Is it a joke for such military and state affairs? You, you, are you really going to make me angry?"

Gao Zong had a fire in his heart. When he looked at Li Xian's timid little appearance, he couldn't hold back his anger. He suddenly patted the copywriting, pointed to Li Xian and shouted rudely.

"The father is angry, the father is angry, and the minister does not dare to be rude and illegal. In fact, the matter is too serious, and there is no special instructions from the mother. The minister dares to neglect. In the past few days, he has discussed with the subordinate officials many times, but he has not been able to reach an agreement, so he does not dare to disturb his father easily."

When it came to this, Li Xian had already believed in his heart that he had been cheated by the Empress Wu. He was so unwilling that he took advantage of the accusation and bit the Empress Wu in turn.

"I'm crazy. When I handed over the military newspaper, I told you that this matter must be done. You are lazy, but you complain that I didn't explain it clearly. What's the reason, huh?"

Queen Wu is not so easy to bite. Without waiting for Gao Zong to speak, she has rudely refuted Li Xian, and her voice is extremely fierce.

"The mother misunderstood, and the child did not dare to talk nonsense. In fact, the slave who came to be transferred did not have the slightest answer, but the child did not dare to delay. However, the child was not familiar with the military affairs, so that he could not have any clue today. It was the child's or not. "

Knowing that he was severely cheated by Queen Wu, Li Xian did not dare to carry it to the end except for his bitterness in his heart, so he could only explain it in a low voice.

"Enough, I ask you, where is the military newspaper now, huh?"

Gao Zong was worried about the military situation on the front line, and he didn't have the leisure to pay attention to the dispute between the mother and son. He waved his hand and asked impatiently.

"Ah, in the children's palace."

When Li Xian was summoned this time, the eunuch who went to preach the decree did not explain the purpose of Gao Zong's summoning, and did not even mention the matter of the Hexi Military Newspaper. There is no doubt that this is the reason why the Empress Wu did something in it. It was clear that he wanted to pull Li Xian to be the scapegoat. At this time, Li Xian also saw it. It's just that he can see it, but there is nothing he can do. In the face of Gao Zong's question, he can only lower his head awkwardly and answer carefully.

"Then why don't you go and get it? What are you doing here? Don't you think I'm not angry enough!"

Under Gao Zong's anxiety, the more he looked at Li Xian, the more unpleasant he became. He patted the copywriting angrily and scolded him angrily.

"Ah, yes, the father is angry, and the child is going now, this is going."

Li Xian was scolded by Gao Zong, and his heart was full of grievances, but he didn't dare to complain much. He could only honestly answer the promise and hurried back to the East Palace. For a few moments, he had come back with a thick note.

"To report to my father, the child has brought the Hexi Army Newspaper and asked my father to have a look."

Li Xian took a few steps and came to the copywriting. The general respectfully handed it to Gao Zong with both hands.

"Humph!"

As soon as he saw that the military newspaper had arrived, Gao Zong was too lazy to be angry with Li Xian. He snorted coldly. As soon as he stretched out his hand, the general copied the newspaper, put it on the copy, opened it, and read it carefully.

"Crazy, Tubo's little bandits dare to be rampant. If it's unbearable, I'm going to send a large army to destroy this!"

Gao Zong read it quickly and went through the whole book in a short time. Finally, he patted the book on the copy and cursed angrily.

"Your Majesty is angry. This matter must be discussed from a long-term plan. My concubine thinks that it is the Mid-Autumn Festival, which is not a good opportunity to march into the army. It is not too late to make a plan in the spring. As for the place in Hexi, there is such a big man. If nothing will happen, your majesty should just relax."

The reason why Queen Wu handed over the Hexi Military Newspaper to the prince to handle it was that she didn't want to sit and watch Li Xianfeng rise, that is, to achieve this goal through the prince's jealousy. At this time, Gao Zong had a desire to conquer Tubo and did not want to see it, so he was extremely relieved.

"Your Majesty, what the Queen Mother said is that the severe winter is coming, and the war is unfavorable. If it is deeply trapped in the plateau, it is difficult to guarantee that the tragedy of Dafeichuan will not be repeated, and it should be safe."

"Your Majesty, I think that this matter should be discussed in the long-term, and I beg Your Majesty to make a judge."

"Your Majesty, soldiers, the major events of the country should not be taken lightly. Please think twice."

......

Among the ministers present, except for the prince and Pei Xingjian, they are all the backbone of the party of the Empress Wu. Although the words of the Queen Wu are euphemistic, the meaning of opposing the expedition is extremely clear. They will not let go of this opportunity to support the Queen Wu. They will all stand up and talk in chaos. Although the words were different, the meaning was all the same. Seeing the situation, the prince seemed to be a little moved. The corners of his mouth moved a few times, as if there was a desire to say, but at the bottom, he still didn't say a word, but lowered his head with a complex face.

"Well, this matter, this matter..."

Gao Zong was willing to support Li Xian's request for war, but as soon as he saw the Empress Wu and all the ministers, he was opposed. It was not good to be too arbitrary and said a few words, but he didn't say a reason.

"Your Majesty, can you read the military newspaper?"

Just when Gao Zong was in a dilemma, he saw Pei Xingjian stand out from the side, bowed and pleaded sincerely.

"Of course, Pei Aiqing's army is more than others. I'm going to learn from it and take it."

Gao Zong has always trusted Pei Xingjian's ability. When he heard that he wanted to read the military newspaper, there would be no reason to disallow it. He waved his hand cheerfully and motioned the eunuch who was accompanying him to forward the general's report to Pei Xingjian.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

After Pei Xingjian thanked him politely, he carefully took the military newspaper, bowed his body slightly, and studied the military newspaper carefully in front of the imperial court. He was extremely focused and seemed to be extremely engaged. In fact, it was not true. His mind was not in this military newspaper at all, just because of the details inside. He knew it for a long time. Of course, it was not from the military newspaper, but from the copy sent by Li Xian. In fact, the reason why he appeared in this imperial study today was also the result of Li Xian's prior explanation, in order to return Li Xian's favor.

"Does Pei Aiqing have any opinions on this war?"

Pei Xingjian looked very slowly, but Gao Zong did not have a trace of impatience. He sat quietly behind several children. It was not until Pei Xingjian raised his head that he asked with a smile.

"Fighty!"

Pei Xingjian gave a judgment concisely.

"Fighty? This..., Pei Aiqing's meaning is..."

Although Gao Zong wanted to fight, he didn't support it in his heart, and he was really afraid that the tragedy of Da Feichuan would be staged again. Although he was happy to hear Pei Xingjian's words, he did not dare to make a decision easily, but hesitated to ask.

"Your Majesty, Xianheng, you have asked me whether I can recruit Tubo for three years. I said: No, just because the Tubo kings are compatible, and we can't fight. Now the old king of Tubo has been lost. The new king is young and it is difficult to control the overall situation. Even if the gal Qinling can do it, there must be more people who are more people. If they are defeated, Tubo will be incompetent. His Royal Highness's ability can be determined in a battle. Therefore, I think that if there is a war at this time, there will be no doubt that the battle will be won!"

Although Pei Xingjian had flipped the book from time to time before, his mind was not on it, but finally decided whether to really help Li Xian's big favor. When he looked up, his heart was already firm in his original idea. At this time, when he heard Gao Zong's question, he would not hesitate at all, and he gave it decisively. It must be an incomparable judgment.

"Well said, I also see it. This battle should be fought! Come on, draft an edict!"

As soon as he heard Pei Xingjian's affirmation, the last trace of worry in Gao Zong's heart was gone. Without asking Queen Wu, he made a decision arbitrarily. As soon as he said this, it was not only the ministers and workers, but also Queen Wu and Li Xian's faces changed wildly...
