How to make Tang Yuan the vanguard of the thief has now become a common problem for the emperor and the empress, and the two of them came to see the queen mother, and at this time, the queen mother's house was still sitting with Min Yue of the big pillar country and the queen mother's confidant Lu Shi, and the chief manager of the inner hall ploughed Wantang.

Da Zhuguo is too old, and he has long stopped asking about men and women, and he is also the uncle of Empress Dowager Cao, so he can enter the harem, otherwise how can this be a place for other men to come in.

The emperor told everyone what he had just seen Tang Yuan.

Hearing this, Empress Dowager Cao's face sank: "He dared to openly resist the decree?" ”

The crowd was silent.

The Queen Mother took a deep breath and said: "If he doesn't go, then leave this problem to Tang Zhen to solve, I think he will definitely make Tang Xiao handsome and Bai Ke the vanguard." If this is arranged, Meng Zong can also be defeated. It's just that the strength of our royal family seems much lighter here. ”

"Tang Yuan openly resisted the decree, he couldn't just finish it like this, otherwise the royal family's face would be damaged." Lu Shi smiled and said, just finished this sentence, and smiled at Tang Qi.

She knew that Tang Yuan was Tang Qi's person, and this sentence implied murderous intentions, which was very easy to anger the queen.

But she wouldn't be so stupid and offend the queen directly.

Immediately said another sentence, not only to satisfy the queen mother, but also to satisfy the queen, she said: "The minister has the courage to intercede for Tang Yuan, although Tang Yuan openly resists the order, but he has no second heart for the Liang Dynasty, he has never flinched from foreign wars, but he doesn't want to see civil wars, and the Han people kill each other." This person is benevolent and righteous, and he is of the same heart and mind as His Majesty the Emperor, and he should not be guilty of serious crimes against him. ”

Empress Dowager Cao nodded and said: "The general is also a human being, he has his own opinions, and Tang Yuan is young and vigorous, so it is inevitable to make some foolish decisions." For the sake of his contribution to the country's crusade and west, this time the sin will be temporarily recorded and he will not be punished. Queen, you should write him a letter and tell him about our conversation. ”

"Yes."

Although Zhao Ce was the emperor, when facing Tang Yuan, he didn't have a way.

Someone, pulled out and beheaded, don't believe that he doesn't agree.

That's all if some people don't know how to do things, it's the next step.

Moreover, Tang Qi had long felt that Tang Yuan would refuse, and had told the emperor about her worries before, because Tang Qi had heard that Tang Yuan did not like to fight a civil war. This is a person with a strong national heart, but a very weak sense of interests, he is very active in grabbing supplies on the battlefield, but that is all for the soldiers to find food, never fill their own pockets, this kind of person has excellent character and a thick emotional account, but the disadvantage is that he is independent and not very controlled.

As the emperor, the main study is not the national policy, but the people's hearts, the way of the king, the royal family has a family motto passed down from generation to generation, this year the emperor is nineteen years old, several years of imperial experience, has made him a lot calmer.

A few days ago, just after Tang Xiao's wedding, Zhao Ya, the princess of Chang'an, finally married Tang Xiao, and now is the perfect time for the two families to partner to eliminate Meng Zong. At that time, the Jingzhou area will be the same as the Anxi Protectorate, and the two sides will each leave half of the soldiers and horses to jointly reap the interests of the Jingzhou area.

Although this is contradictory to the original design, because at the beginning, Empress Dowager Cao and Tang Zhen's design was that the gate valve army was outside and the royal army was inside, but this arrangement, Zhao Ce felt that it was self-defeating, and he knew that he could not let all the grain producing areas be controlled by the gate valve, otherwise there would inevitably be endless troubles.

In the queen mother's bedroom, everyone chatted for a while, and soon after the big pillar country Min Yue got up and retired, and the queen mother personally sent him out of the palace.

And they returned, and continued to discuss great things.

"If Tang Yuan doesn't go, then let my uncle and grandfather go, it's just that his old man is seventy-two years old, which is really worrying." Zhao Ce frowned and said: "Last time, Da Sima personally went to Hexi, although he won, but after he came back, his health was not as good as before. Now I haven't been to court for three consecutive months, which makes me feel caries. ”

"No, Da Zhuguo's health is not very good, and he can't be the coach." The Queen Mother directly vetoed: "The reason why I am desperate to attack Meng Zong at this time is because the bodies of these two humerus veterans are obviously aging. The wind and candles are in the last years, and I don't know when the oil will run out and the lamp will dry up. If they do, I don't know what to do with them. ”

Hearing this, the emperor and the empress glanced at each other and nodded.

Why don't you just let Tang Xiao be a pioneer?

Wouldn't it be a tyrannical thing for such a person to keep at home and not use it?

In the past year or so, Tang Xiao has been attacked three times, all three times are extremely dangerous, a nine-grade shooter has targeted Tang Xiao, and now Tang Xiao doesn't even go out. The swordsmen of the Tang family chased and killed the assassins everywhere, but the assassins were not found, but the swordsmen took in more than a dozen.

"If you really can't clear the streets, let Tang Xiao wear heavy iron armor and escort him to the army with a thousand rao guards, I don't believe that the killer is so capable, and he dares to take the lead in such a battle." Empress Dowager Cao said: "You don't have to think about this matter anymore, let's settle it like this." ”

When the news reached the Tang Mansion, Tang Zhen, the eldest Sima of the old Dragon Bell, looked at the holy decree, although he was already old and dizzy, he was used to watching by himself, rather than listening to others.

Putting down the holy decree, he cleared his throat: "This time to fight Meng Zong, it is actually a double-edged sword, after arriving in Jingzhou, we must occupy more medium-sized cities, and give the largest Jingzhou city to the royal family." You must know the truth that the city is difficult to defend, our army surrounds Jingzhou City, and it is best to deploy in these easy-to-defend cities, which is convenient for the surrounding food, and at the same time can contain the ambitions of the royal family to move us. After the elimination of Meng Zong, our battle with the imperial family really began. In addition, I have been worried that Simon Masashi might come to Meng Zong's aid, if that happens, I don't know when this war will end. ”

Tang Xiao frowned and said, "Since my father is so kind, why did he promise the Queen Mother?" ”

Tang Zhen smiled bitterly and said: "Because Meng Zong is not good, among the few of us, he is too rigid, but too brittle, while a few of our old bones are still alive, it is simply intolerable not to eliminate him." ”

Tang Xiao asked again: "Then why don't you unite with the Ximen family and eliminate Meng Zong together?" ”

Tang Zhen said: "The Queen Mother disagrees. In addition, I also think that if the Simon family is also involved, then we will get too little. How will the Simon family be held down in the future? Simon Mamori is the oldest, but this old immortal body is the best. Leaning Meng Danqing to death, it seems that I can't rely on him anymore. ”

"My father is physically tough, why do you say this."

Tang Zhen waved his hand and said, "Don't follow me these nice words, I know my own body very well." It is estimated that I will live for a year and a half at most, and while I am not dead, I hope to hand over to you the most powerful Tang Clan Gate Valve. ”

In the sixth year of Zhide, at the beginning of April, Luoyang City Dabai implemented a road ban, and the imperial city forbidden army cavalry of 1,000 people, strictly guarded all the way to escort, sent Tang Xiao out of Luoyang, held the Dashuai Festival, and led the 190,000 army to Jingzhou.
