Just when Li Er and several ministers looked depressed and helpless.

But I heard a rush of footsteps outside the main hall.

The door of the main hall creaked open, and a sergeant dressed in the armor of the forbidden army rushed in like crazy, shouting, "...... Urgent ...... Your Majesty, there is an urgent report from the border pass...... Hundreds of horses flying pigeons pass the book, there is an urgent report to Chang'an......"

Everyone's hearts jumped, and they had a bad premonition.

Li Er closed his eyes in pain, as if he didn't want to face the news from the border gate.

The eldest grandson Wuji clenched his fists and said angrily: "Tubo is too deceitful, this revenge will not be avenged, and my eldest grandson Wuji will not turn a blind eye." ”

Wei Zheng gritted his teeth and said: "Even if the government and the opposition oppose it, we must use troops against Tubo, my Tang Dynasty has lost not only Shanzhou, Lanzhou is also in danger, once Lanzhou is lost, the army of Ganzhou and Liangzhou, the supply will be cut off, and it will be more auspicious at that time." ”

Wang Jue echoed: "Your Majesty, it is imperative that you immediately report the evil deeds of Tubo to the world, and immediately send Li Jing, Qin Qiong and other generals to lead the armies of other Wei to rush to Lanzhou for reinforcements. ”

Everyone said a word, but they all persuaded Li Er to send troops, including those who were hesitant before, and their attitudes became resolute at this time.

Bang.

Li Er slammed his fist on the table again, and said with a gloomy face: "There is more than innocent death, it is simply innocent of death, I am not afraid of the Tubo people, but I am worried about those people in Shanzhou, they must be living in dire straits now." I failed to be a good emperor, and I actually let the people of the Tang Dynasty fall into the flames of war...... I am guilty, and when this is over, I will make a sin edict against myself......"

Li Erxu babbled for a long time.

The soldier who delivered the urgent report was dumbfounded, he quietly glanced at Li Er, and whispered: "Your Majesty, there is a red silk on this urgent report, it is good news." ”

Good news?

Li Er and the eldest grandson Wuji suddenly widened their eyes, staring carefully at the urgent report that was rolled into a volume. Sure enough, there was an extra piece of red silk on it.

This is the rule of the Hundred Horsemen, and once it is good news, it will be tied with a piece of red silk.

Generally speaking, this will not happen, because any urgent emergency is not a good thing.

Li Er was a little puzzled and waved his hand.

A eunuch next to him hurriedly stepped forward to submit the urgent report.

Li Er opened it with his own hands, and saw a few words written on a small piece of paper: Tubo retreated, Shanzhou is not in danger.

In just eight words, Li Er suddenly burst out laughing.

He stood up abruptly and said to the eldest grandson Wuji and the others: "Ladies and gentlemen, there is good news from the Hundred Cavalry Division, Tubo has withdrawn from the army, and the crisis in Shanzhou City has been resolved. ”

Wei Zheng shouted: "This is the blessing of Your Majesty, the blessing of the Tang Dynasty, the blessing of the people of the world, God bless the Tang Dynasty." ”

Wang Jue said happily: "Great, Shanzhou City is fine, Lanzhou will be fine, as long as after a period of time, the army of Ganzhou and Liangzhou arrives, Tubo will not be afraid, it is really good." ”

From the emperor to the ministers, they all rejoiced.

The monarchs and ministers were happy.

The eldest grandson Wuji stood up and said with a puzzled face: "Your Majesty, the minister feels that this matter is strange again, according to Duan Zhixuan's report a few days ago, saying that Tubo is about to conquer Shanzhou City, and Shanzhou City has not had any army to help in a short period of time. Reasonably, this matter is unreasonable. ”

Everyone and Li Er were stunned.

Just now, everyone was happy to visit, but they didn't expect it to be here.

Li Er frowned and said, "Could it be that the information of the Hundred Cavalry Division is wrong?" ”

But then he shook his head again.

The withdrawal of the Tibetan army is certainly not a trivial matter.

The people of the Hundred Riders are professional and can't be mistaken.

So why did the Tibetans retreat?

Li Er and the ministers were puzzled.

At this time, Li Er suddenly asked, "Where is Chen Chu?" ”

Gao Chen stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, you ordered that Chen Gongzi should not be allowed to leave the palace, during this time, he ate and lived in the East Palace, and I heard that he studied cooking with the prince and the king of Jin every day. ”

Li Er's face changed: "Hmph, how can this be true, at this time, the border pass of the Tang Dynasty is about to be lost, Chen Chu still has the heart to learn cooking skills, and those two bastards, one Taizi and one King of Jin, are indifferent to this social matter, and dare to fool around with Chen Chu and call the three of them over." ”

Gao Chen hurried away.

After a short time, I saw Chen Chu, the crown prince Li Chengqian, and the king of Jin Li Zhi walking into the Ganlu Hall side by side.

Seeing this, Eldest Sun Wuji frowned and looked at Chen Chu with some displeasure.

It is said that Li Chengqian's status is noble and he should be in front, King Jin is close behind, and Chen Chu should be far behind.

But now, the three of them walked in side by side.

It's not polite at all.

Chen Chu and the three of them just stepped forward.

Bang.

Li Er slapped the table and said angrily: "Prince, King Jin, Chen Chu, when is it, you still dare to learn cooking skills in the East Palace, do you still have the Jiangshan Sheji of the Tang Dynasty in your eyes." ”

Li Chengqian and Li Zhi have been used to training since childhood, and when they saw Li Er's face, they were too frightened to speak.

Chen Chu said indifferently: "Father, this cooking skill does not prevent the two highnesses from caring about the Tang Dynasty. ”

Li Er glared at Chen Chu: "Don't hinder it?" Now, the Tubo army, I am afraid that Shanzhou has been defeated, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty are worried about this matter, the prince and the king of Jin are good, and they still have the heart to cook, is this what a prince should do? ”

Chen Chu was neither humble nor arrogant: "Father, if my prediction is correct, now the Tubo people have withdrawn." ”

Well?

At this moment, Li Er and the eldest grandson Wuji were stunned.

The urgent report of the Hundred Cavalry Division was only delivered before the half-burnt incense.

Only a few people in the temple of manna know.

But how did Chen Chu know?

Li Er raised his eyebrows and stared at Chen Chu: "Boy, tell me honestly, where did you get the news?" ”

Chen Chu looked around and said: "Your Majesty, when I waited to come in, I only saw all the adults, especially the old generals, with indifferent faces, not hurrying, not worried at all, they are all the pillars of the imperial court, the core figures of the Tang Dynasty, if Shanzhou is really lost, how can they not worry, yes, I guess, Shanzhou should be saved, and the Tubo army retreated...... Of course, this alone is not enough, but also because, as I said at the beginning, if a divine soldier descends from heaven to Tibet and make some small moves to the rear of the Tibetan army, with Songtsen Gampo's suspicious character, he will definitely withdraw the army! Now it seems that the divine soldier should be working. ”

Chen Chu said lightly.

Li Er and the others, but the more they listened, the more frightened they became.

I even felt that Chen Chu was a little scary.

It was possible to deduce the correct conclusion from the performance of the people present.

But when he heard the word "divine soldier", Li Er couldn't help but sneer: "It's nonsense, how can there be a divine soldier in Tibet, I and the military department don't know about this matter." ”
