After the saint woke up, after careful diagnosis by the emperors, it was determined that the dragon's body was fine, and he only needed to recuperate for a period of time to recover completely. After hearing the news www.biquge.info the clan and the ministers were immediately relieved. It is enough for the saint to be safe and sound, and as for the affairs of the imperial court, it will not be a big problem to hand them over to a few prime ministers for the time being. The so-called prime minister should have the ability to withstand the ups and downs inside and outside the court at such a moment.

However, what followed was the news that the saint insisted on "driving the expedition". It is said that Qin An, the Duke of Wu, persuaded again and again, and Empress Du and Princess Changning also persuaded each other, but the sage insisted on his views unwaveringly. Even Jian Guogong Xu Ye entered the palace when he was about to send troops to the army, but he failed to persuade the saint. Because of the successive visits to the courtiers who advised the Zichen Palace, even if Empress Du asked to seal the news, the relevant rumors still inevitably spread gradually.

King Jing had recently been busy asking Li Ren to revise the text on the expedition against the rebels and provide all kinds of evidence of "the common anger of people and gods", and by the time he heard the news, it was too late. However, he still put down everything at hand and hurried to the Zichen Hall to meet him: "Your Majesty has not recovered from his illness, how can he rashly drive the expedition when the dragon's body is not safe?" ”

Li Tai, who was sitting on the side, wanted to echo a sentence or two at will, but he couldn't help but notice the look of this uncle's coming, and suddenly he was slightly surprised, and he continued: "Uncle Jing Wang is right. Saint, the most important thing is to recuperate your body, and everything else can be put aside for the time being. Even if the battlefield is changing rapidly, you can let the chief of the East Road march set off first-"

"I'm not neglecting my body." The saint pondered for a moment and swept away the relatives gathered around.

King Jing and Qin An, the Duke of Wu, an uncle and an uncle, are all elders he relies on; Although the elder brother Li Tai is not enough to rely on, he also has the advantage of being unreliable, not to mention that he also has two sons who are generally knowledgeable; The elder sister Linchuan eldest princess and the concubine Zhou Ziwu are also incapable, but they will not cause trouble; Needless to say, his younger sister, Princess Qinghe, and his concubine Qin Shen won his trust.

In front of these people, he had almost no worries, but he could express all his thoughts: "The traitors are now in full swing, and after the fall of Shuozhou, their next target may be Taiyuan Mansion." Taiyuan Mansion is the land of our family's dragon prosperity, and it must be defended no matter what. At this time, it is most suitable for me to drive the expedition and strengthen the prestige of our army. In addition, the Turkic and Tiele tribes were also involved in the rebellion. If I don't go to the army, it is very likely that other tribes will also be ready to move and despise my Tang Dynasty's Son of Heaven. ”

"Back then, Grandpa took illness to Lingzhou, accepted the congratulations of all clans, and was enshrined as the Heavenly Khan. And if I stay in Chang'an now, if I don't take half a step, won't I fall into the name of Ayetian Khan? It's just for the sake of filial piety, and it is time to go through this experience, and summon all the clans in Taiyuan Mansion or Lingzhou again to stabilize the situation in northern Xinjiang! ”

"......" Qin An and King Jing glanced at each other, as if they had been a little shaken. They were so concerned with persuading the saint not to do so, that they almost forgot that this Majesty was also a reasonable man, and would not be easily swayed by anger. Moreover, there is a point in what he said. In any case, at such a time, the prestige of the Tang Dynasty must not be damaged in any way, otherwise those barbarians who used to be vassals will immediately take advantage of the situation and cause war.

Li Tai still shook his head and said: "Even so, you don't have to force the sick body to drive the expedition." By the time the first battle was won, the saint's body and bones had also been raised, and it was not too late to go to Taiyuan Mansion to inspire people. ”

"Then it will be too late." After that, the sage ignored him and continued, "I will be in charge of the eastern route, and Ashina Zhensi's cousin will accompany me as the deputy chief - Qianli will follow, and you may be able to rest assured that you will be in charge of dispatching grain and grass and guarding me." For the sake of recuperation, I can walk slower, and let Ashina really sip the army to the battlefield first. However, the will of the royal conquest must be announced immediately, and the war must not be delayed. ”

"Sage ......" Queen Du was about to say more, and the sage shook his head at her: "Zitong, I have made up my mind." Rest assured, I won't go to the battlefield, I'm just staying in Taiyuan Mansion, and there will be no danger. ”

Princess Changning hugged Princess Yong'an and looked at Li Hui in silence. However, at this time, Li Hui couldn't say anything more. After all, even Li Tai and Empress Du have failed, and what he said is nothing more than for the safety of the saint. Li Xin looked at Li Wei - his new messenger seemed to be heavily used, but at the same time he was under great pressure. If there is a case, I am afraid that ten thousand deaths will not be able to escape the blame.

"Xuanzhong scholars, the purpose." In silence, the saint said.

Not long after, Zhongshu Ling brought several Zhongshu people to the audience. After listening to the saint's will, he immediately knelt down and kowtowed, expressing his resolute disagreement with the royal conquest. For this reason, he also looked at King Jing and Qin An, the Duke of Wu, with suspicion, as if alluding to their ulterior motives. And the servants of Menxia Province also heard the news, and with a group of people with extremely high combat effectiveness, they said thousands of words freely, resolutely opposing the royal conquest.

All in all, they believe that the East Palace is empty and the prince has not been established. Therefore, the safety of the saint is more important than anything else, and it must not be taken lightly. In addition, it is unreasonable to hand over all the affairs of the court to the prime ministers.

The saint closed his eyes a little irritably, and the temple supervisor immediately stepped forward to press his temples on the spot. After a long time, he said, "Do you plan to do it?" ”

"No, no, no!" Zhongshu Ling replied with a stiff neck.

The saint looked at the few scholars with an expressionless face, and saw that they were also bowing their heads with solemn faces, and suddenly anger surged in his heart. He coldly patrolled the group of people in Zhongshu Province and Menxia Province: "Since you do not obey my will, what is the use of asking you? Zhongshu Ling and Shizhong should go back to the house, don't let me see you again! Besides—"

His gaze fell on an inconspicuous young man in the corner, and he suddenly remembered that he had also drawn up a will for himself, and it was still an important will for the king of the rebel river. Oh, it's long overdue to replace this group of disobedient people with obedient ones, who knows what they are blocking themselves for? At the very least, the young man should not disobey him.

So, he said: "Spread my message, and the prince of the province of Zuo Buque will be dedicated to the middle scholar." Come, Wang Aiqing, give me a decree. ”

The prince was stunned, and after stepping forward to thank the sage Longen, he raised his head and glanced at Li Hui without a trace. Li Hui's expression was particularly complicated and difficult to discern, not only did he not want him to agree to the proposed purpose, but also worried about his career future. If a low-ranking official of the age of the crown loses the trust of the saint because of this, I am afraid that it will be difficult to advance in the future. But if he agrees, it will be difficult to gain a foothold in Zhongshu Province or Menxia Province in the future...... And in his heart, there is always something that he can't get through.

Just as he hesitated, Wang Zixian had already made up his mind, lowered his eyes and replied loudly: "Weichen respectfully obeys the sage's command. With that, he walked to the side and sat down, sharpened his ink and rolled up his sleeves and picked up the pen.

Zhongshu Ling and Shizhong were simply stunned - since the dynasty, there has never been a weak crown age of Zhongshu Sheren! What is a Chinese scholar? It seems that there are only five grades, but that is an important position for the saint! Compared with the living house who is always around the saint, he is more in the position of real power. From the middle of the scholar to the next level is the Zhongshu Shilang, or transferred to the six departments of Shangshu Province, and then you can look forward to the group of high-ranking officials who serve the purple. If you are trusted by the saints, it will only be a matter of years before you become the prime minister in the future!!

They were only shocked, and after reacting, they realized that Wang Zixian had already prepared a decree. Even if the Zhongshu Decree and the Servant resolutely refused to sign and seal the edict, indicating that the edict had been approved, the sage also had a way to quickly send the edict from Zhongshu Province and Menxia Province to Shangshu Province - for example, he happened to want to change his cronies to become prime ministers.

So, at the cost of the Zhongshu Order and the replacement of the servants, Qin An, the Duke of Wu Guo, who was the left servant of Shangshu Province, got this edict in a moment. He sighed deeply and looked at the sage: "The old minister will never live up to the sage's expectations...... The saint's royal expedition will be triumphant! ”

"Uncle's auspicious words will definitely come true." The saint smiled.

At this time, in the Chengxiang Hall of Daming Palace, Concubine Yuan Shu, who was lazily lying on the soft couch, listened to a small palace person say the matter in a low voice, and immediately asked her cronies to give a heavy reward. She glanced at her niece Yuan Meiren, who was kneeling next to her with her eyebrows lowered and pinching her legs, and her red lips hooked: "Our saint's temperament has always been like this, it looks gentle, but in fact it is very stubborn. If you recognize one thing, it will not change. Alas, what danger will there be in the royal conquest? I'm really worried. ”

"The saint is the Son of Heaven, and he has his own dragon qi to protect his body, so he will definitely be fine." Yuan Meiren replied very obediently.

Concubine Yuan glanced at her with a smile: "Really? You're a good talker. After that, her face changed slightly, as if she was a little disgusted, and her eyebrows couldn't help frowning slightly, but her eyes were full of joy. Yuan Meiren's gaze swept over her abdomen, and her expression seemed to be a little complicated, as if it implied relief.

Concubine Yuan didn't notice the change in her expression, and after pondering for a while, Fang said, "Speaking of which, the recipe offered by Sixteen Niang is indeed useful. It's hard for her to marry that sick man, and she is full of thoughts about recuperating her body, so she found such a good recipe. I have today, and I should thank her. Well, I know what she wants. Pick and choose some and send them to her. I can't say in the future, but there will be a place where they can be used. ”

The palace maid standing in the corner answered softly and lowered her head and retreated. Soon, she took the waist card and went out of Daming Palace smoothly and went to Yuan's Mansion to visit Yuan's mother, who was named the county lady. However, no one noticed, and a moment later she changed her face and blended into an inconspicuous carriage in the Yuan Mansion, and slowly came to another nobleman's mansion. The housewife of this family has been sick, and the middle feed is taken care of by the noble concubine. And this noble concubine is the daughter of the Yuan clan, ranking sixteenth in the clan.
