Chapter 353 Murder Hidden on
Li Zhen, the king of Yue, has been in the court for more than half a year. Speaking of which, the saint's family has always been good. The entrance and exit of the palace is as smooth as his own back garden. He is an absolute regular guest in the palace. He is both a prince and a prime minister. He is really famous, at least on the surface, but most of the governors and assistants in this hall are not too Take the King of Yue seriously, not to mention anything else, just putting his shallow foundation in the court, which makes a group of colleagues not like him very much. Whenever there is a discussion in the political hall, a group of governors and assistants regard it as air. Hearing the Queen Wu's admiration of Li Zhen so coldly, the a group of assistants can't help but feel different because of it. In this way, they looked at Li Zhen with different expressions. Everyone's eyes were extremely complicated, but Li Zhen turned a blind eye to the ministers, and did not pick up Wu Hou's words. So the old god stood on the ground and became a wooden clay sculpture.
"Brother, do you know anything about Hexi?"
Gao Zong waited for a moment and saw that Li Zhen had never responded, so he had to ask in a deliberate manner.
"Ah, Your Majesty, I'm distracted, ashamed, ashamed."
As soon as Gao Zong said this, Li Zhen was as surprised as if she had just woken up from a dream. She bowed down in panic and complained repeatedly.
"Oh? What makes the eighth brother so fascinated? You might as well talk about it and listen to it with me.
Gao Zong looked at Li Zhen doubtfully. Obviously, he didn't believe that Li Zhen would be distracted in such a big event, but it was not easy to attack him in public. He raised his eyebrows and asked indifferently.
"In the words of your majesty, I was just thinking that when I was the official of the minister in Yuzhou, everything was complicated. Under the left and right, I could only maintain it with difficulty, and it was really difficult to be competent. After that, I experienced for more than ten years. When I was appointed as Xiangzhou again, although I was familiar with everything, I still did not dare to say that I was competent easily. I was really scared and panicked."
Li Zhen's eyelids were smashed a few times, and she made a look of panic. She chattered and pulled a lot of seemingly irrelevant words, but in fact, it meant something. It was just that Li Xian did not have the ability to take charge of the Hexi Army. Although this point is obscist, all kinds of people in the hall are extraordinary people. Who can't hear the strangeness, but Li Zhen didn't say it clearly. Even if someone wanted to be wronged by Li Xianming, there was no way to sing. For a moment, the hall was silent because of a piece of silence.
"The eighth brother is too modest. In my opinion, in the world, there are few people in the world who can surpass the eighth brother in the power of government affairs. That's all, let's not talk about how to deal with the affairs of Hexi."
Although Gao Zong is cowardly, he is not stupid. He can hear the subtext in Li Zhen's words, but he doesn't care about it. After all, Li Xian's ability has been experienced a lot. He will never have doubts because of Li Zhen's words. Of course, Gao Zong's original intention is not to want Li Xian to go to Hexi to suffer. At this time, he heard Li Zhen said this and obviously had other concerns about Hexi, which made a few perfunctory words, directly bypassed Li Xian's ability, and directly asked Li Zhen's concerns.
"Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that the matter of Hexi is actually simple, but two words, one is war, and the other is governance. As far as war is concerned, with the strength of our Tang Dynasty, there is no need to worry about the rampantness of Tubo small bandits. Today, although the court can't adjust the army to the flat side due to the lack of grain, it can still be defended. If you don't care about the loss of one or two states, it will be strong. There is no doubt that the enemy will go to the border for a few months. With this strategy, there is no need to fight. It is okay to send a general. As for governance, it is such a big article. It is indeed not a work of the day. With the great talent of His Royal Highness, if you can add a little experience and go through the west of the river, it can be a great governance. This old minister's shallow ear. I hope your majesty can say it clearly. Li Zhen deserves to be known as a virtuous king. After saying that, she is well-founded. Obviously, she is tearing down Li Xian's stage, but it sounds like she is thinking about Li Xian.
"Your Majesty, the eighth uncle's words are very kind, and I think it's a feasible solution!"
Empress Wu's reaction was extremely fast. Without waiting for others to express their opinions, she spoke first and set the tone.
Damn old dog, what a vicious strategy to draw salary from the bottom of the pot. I remember this account, and I will go back and make a good account! Li Xian's reaction was also very fast. He didn't need to chew at all. He saw through Li Zhen's intentions at a glance. There was a burst of fire in his heart, but he did not bring it to his face. He was not in a hurry to refute, but stood quietly in the hall, in a light manner.
"Well, that's true. In my opinion, where should Xian'er practice?"
Gao Zong didn't want Li Xian to take the risk of war. He would not oppose Li Zhen's proposal. However, he secretly saw that Li Xian's face was extremely indifferent and seemed to disdain Li Zhen's proposal. He couldn't help but move. He vaguely felt that the matter was not that simple, so he hesitated for a moment and was not in a hurry to make a decision. Instead, he cautiously asked.
"I think Xiangzhou is good. I have been here for ten years. I am familiar with the customs and accidents in this place. I dare not say that I will not close the house at night, but there are still some. This is the experience of His Royal Highness the King of England, which is suitable. This is also a foolish opinion of your majesty, please judge!" Li Zhen answered very quickly. As soon as Gao Zong's words fell, he took out the basis of Xiangzhou.
Xiangzhou? Ha, such a cunning old fox! As soon as Li Xian heard Li Zhenzhi's proposal, he was stunned, and then soon he clearly recognized Li Zhen's intentions - this was just a cover-up to show whether it is true or false. To put it bluntly, it's just that Li Zhen is pretending to be generous. The faction will give up the base to show his selfless heart. In fact, it is Li Xian's. The objection can not only eliminate Gao Zong's vigilance, but also protect the base. What's more, it can take the opportunity to seal the possibility of Li Xian's governance in Hexi, which is absolutely killing three birds with one stone.
"Is it Xiangzhou? Well, I've been there. It's really a good place. Xian'er, what do you think?
Although Gao Zong is not a stupid person, to be honest, he is really smart and can't see the real intention of the Yue King's move. Instead, he is extremely satisfied with the "high wind and bright festival" of his base, and he didn't think about it carefully, so he asked Li Xian very happily.
"Father Mingjian, when my son was in the army, he wrote a seven masterpieces, singing a song, but he didn't know whether it was good or bad. He also asked his father to make a judgment for his son." Li Xian did not directly answer Gao Zong's question, but talked about poetry.
"Oh? Is Xian'er also good at poetry? I only know that I can sing, but I don't know that there is still poetic talent, so let's listen to it with me. Gao Zong's own poetry is limited, but he is quite good at appreciating poetry. When he heard that a well-known prince like Li Xian actually wrote poems, he was really interested, and he did not ask about Li Xian's official. He brushed his sleeves with great interest and turned to ask about poetry.
"Yes, I obey the order!" Li Xian's face was solemn, and he slowly said, "Qinghai has long clouds and dark snowy mountains, and the lonely city looks at Yumenguan from afar. Huangsha wears golden armor in a hundred battles. If you don't break Loulan, you won't return it.
"Good poem!"
"Wonderful!"
"Your Highness is heroic!"
......
Poetry is naturally a good poem. It is plagiarized from Wang Changling's "From the Army", which is originally the ultimate song of the ages. When Li Xian and other heroic people are so heroic, the war clouds urge the city. When there is really the pride of the country, it is more rare that the whole poem is full of realism, without the glitz of gorgeous words. It was unanimously praised by all the imperial assistants.
"If you don't break the Loulan, you won't pay it back. Well, since Xian'er is so proud, if I stop it, it will be a little angry. In this case, I will allow you to break the Loulan and eliminate the Tubo thieves for me. Do you dare to do it?"
Gao Zong is an extremely contradictory person. On the one hand, he is very cowardly and incompetent on the inside, and the name of fear is even more stinky for ten thousand years. However, he has always been tough on the outside, but he is uncompromising. Whether it is against Goguryeo or Silla, or Turkic, Tubo and other surrounding countries, he has always been mainly fighting. Langzhi's degree is a little better than that of his generation's emperor Li Shimin. At this time, he was exaggerated by Li Xian's seven masterpieces, and his lofty feelings were immediately aroused. He did not discuss more with the ministers and workers, and directly clawed Li Xianzhi's invitation.
"I would like to serve my father in the battlefield and do my best to die!"
Seeing that Gao Zong had made a decision, Li Xian was overjoyed. He knelt to the ground and answered in a loud voice.
"Your Majesty is holy. However, after all, Xian'er is the first official, and in such a complex place as Hexi, he must be matched with a few old talents to ensure that he is free."
Seeing that Li Xian's military and political power in Hexi has become a forged conclusion. Although the Empress Wu was reluctant, she could not sing against Gao Zong on the spot, so she raised her eyebrows and inserted a sentence from the side.
"Well, that's true. I also think so. The military situation is urgent, and this matter needs to be done earlier. Is there any candidate for Mei Niang to recommend?" As soon as he heard that Wu Hou's words were quite reasonable, Gao Zong had no objection, so he hurriedly asked.
"Your Majesty, Xian'er is brave and martial arts. You don't have to worry too much about the military strategy. You just need to be matched with a few deputies. My concubine thinks that Qiu Shenfeng, the general of Jinwuwei, is quite capable, or can be the deputy of Xian'er. In addition, Li Wen, the third son of the eighth uncle, is also quite talented. He sends him to the army to practice, and it will be of great use in the future. As for Wenzhi On the other hand, the original assassins of all states can be used, but there must be a general manager. Let Liu Yizhi have a try. Gao Zong asked so casually, but Queen Wu immediately climbed up the pole and stuffed three people into the west of the river in one breath, all of whom were in important positions. He took this opportunity to completely empty Li Xianzhi's intentions.
"This... Well, what do you think?"
Gao Zong is not stupid. How could he not hear the ambiguity in Wuhou's words? He was a little dumbfounded. Did he disagree, but he did not have the courage to oppose Wuhou on the spot. After being stunned for a long time, he simply kicked the ball to Li Xian.
Okay, you old thief, do you play sand tricks with us? Then come on. When it comes to me, we can kill as much as we want! Hearing that the Empress Wu played the overhead game so blatantly, Li Xian's heart became angry and the murder had moved. However, his face was full of gratitude and thanked, "Father Shengming, I can get the help of my mother. Fortunately, I have no objection!"
"Okay, that's it. I'll give you the will in case of sending troops!"
As soon as he heard Li Xian's words, Gao Zong was secretly relieved, afraid that there would be more branches. As soon as he patted the board, he got up and hurriedly turned back to the apse...
