Li Yuanhong is worried about the future of Datang.

Li Longji's emphasis on military exploits is already known to everyone, and no one knows it.

Therefore, the literati of this era liked to join the army on the frontier, and a trend was formed.

This is why the poetry of Biansai is so popular.

As an orthodox literati, Li Yuanhong was deeply jealous of this.

On the one hand, they were worried that the status of the warriors would surpass that of the Wenchens, and on the other hand, they were also worried that the warriors would have their own troops and threaten the Tang Dynasty.

Pei Min's specialization has long become Li Yuanhong's heart disease, not because he doubts Pei Min's loyalty, but because he is worried about the normalization of special cases like Pei Min.

Once other border commanders like Pei Min grasp the army, food, and finance, it is easy to produce a situation where foreign ministers are weak inside.

Pei Min, as the envoy of the two towns and the envoy of Hexi, has already made Li Yuanhong a little restless, not to mention that now Longyou is the envoy of the Jiedu, the branch envoy, the Yingtian envoy, the Hexi Jiedu envoy, the Zhidu envoy, the Yingtian envoy, and the Dadu Protector of Zhi'anxi?

This order will mean the western border of the Tang Dynasty, and out of the Guanzhong is Pei Jingyuan's world.

Li Yuanhong's objection was extremely resolute, and he said earnestly: "Your Majesty, this case cannot be opened. Although Pei Guogong is loyal and has made great contributions, the army and the government have been separated from each other, and the army does not care about politics, and politics does not involve the army. Now His Majesty has entrusted the military and political affairs of the West to the hands of one person, setting a precedent. In the future, the border marshals will follow suit, what should Your Majesty do? ”

"It is true that this is an extraordinary moment, and the crisis in the West is all tied to Pei Guogong alone. But the more this happens, the less it can be fueled. ”

"Minister, I beg Your Majesty to take back this life!"

As he spoke, he even fell to his knees.

The Tang Dynasty also popularized kneeling, and it was only when special times did it happen.

Zhang said that Wang Hui unexpectedly did not speak to refute it.

Zhang said that Wang Hui is a member of the hawks and has a close relationship with Pei Min, and has always supported Pei Min and Zhang Shoujue as border marshals, believing that border marshals should have a certain degree of sovereignty.

Otherwise, if you tie your hands and feet to fight, you will only increase casualties, and it will be easy to lose the battle that you could have won.

At the same time, he also believes that the development of internal affairs that is too self-contained will only lead to impetuousness and casualness, and the world will be obsessed with comfort, and he will not know how to be prepared for danger in times of peace.

But Li Longji's power over Pei Min was too heavy, and even Zhang Shuo and Wang Hui, who were facing the military, felt that it was a bit too much.

Li Longji saw that Zhang said and Wang Hui did not speak, and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes.

At this moment, Li Longji's trust in Pei Min far exceeds that of An Lushan in history, and can even be compared with Li Linfu at his peak.

As an emperor with a big heart, who was even willing to hand over the power of the world to his confidants for pleasure, Li Longji had no worries at all, and said: "I did not call you here to discuss, but to let you know what I mean. As Prime Minister, you have the right to dismiss my oracle, but don't forget that I also have the power to remove you. ”

He said and walked away.

Zhang Shuo, Wang Hui, and Li Yuanhong were dumbfounded when they heard this......

To listen or not to listen?

In the feudal era, the emperor was always the biggest existence.

**********

In fact, Pei Min also knew that something was wrong, after all, the lessons of the Tang Dynasty were in front of him.

The division of feudal towns was the biggest drawback of the Tang Dynasty, but the current situation did not allow him to do otherwise.

The war situation in the West has reached the point where it affects the whole body.

Once there is a difference, Datang will completely lose the Western Regions.

This East-West duel will be won by the Arabs.

At that time, as long as the Arabs supported Tibet and threatened the land of Hexi and Longyou, the Tang Dynasty would have little chance to regain the Western Regions in the short term.

When the time comes, both the history of the West and the history of the East will be recorded.

The first large-scale duel between the East and the West ended in a crushing defeat for the Tang Dynasty.

Dignity is a kind of political capital, and if dignity is lost, it will be extremely difficult for the Tang Dynasty to command the vassals of the Quartet.

Over the years, their efforts have been in vain.

Pei Min would never allow this to happen.

When passing through Longyou, Pei Min met Ge Shuhan.

Ge Shuhan was summoned by Li Longji and was rushing to Chang'an.

Ge Shuhan saw Pei Min from a distance and shouted excitedly: "Pei Shuai, Pei Shuai, it's great to meet you." ”

His voice was so loud that it attracted the attention of those around him.

was suddenly summoned by Li Longji, and Ge Shuhan really had no bottom in his heart.

even wondered if he had done something wrong, otherwise why did he summon him to the capital in a good manner?

Pei Min was not in Liangzhou, and he couldn't solve his doubts, so he could only go hard.

Along the way, his eyes widened, looking at the passers-by, he just didn't want to miss Pei Min.

Sure enough, I met it on the way.

Pei Min came and went in a hurry when he entered Beijing this time, and he did not make a big fuss, so that Ge Shuhan's call was immediately exposed.

In the Tang Dynasty, there was no one who could be called "Pei Shuai", except for Pei Min, who could not find a second one.

Pei Min also happened to have something to say to Ge Shuhan, so he entered a nearby post station with him and avoided the crowd casually.

"Your Majesty's sudden summons, it can't be that the last general made some mistake and was impeached, right?"

Ge Shuhan can't think of any big faults in himself, but he also grasps a lot of problems in his private life, after all, he has money.

Pei Min doesn't care, maybe someone in the court can't see it?

In short, seven up and eight down.

"You're a thief!"

Pei Min scolded with a smile, and also told the truth: "It was I who recommended you to Your Majesty to go to Jiannan as a festival envoy." Although His Majesty did not agree, he said that he would see you before deciding. But as long as you don't make any mistakes, this seat is yours nine times out of ten. ”

Ge Shuhan was overjoyed, and this was the dream position of a military general, and he rubbed his fists excitedly and said: "Too, too unexpected, Xie Peishuai, if it weren't for your cultivation and your encouragement, my brother Shuhan would still be just a bad gambler and a bad drunkard, how can there be today." ”

Pei Min said: "As long as you are newly appointed, you will not be under my control." ”

Ge Shuhan immediately said: "Pei Shuai......"

Pei Min waved his hand to refuse him to continue, and said: "You know my temper, I don't engage in any factions, you went out from my Hexi Army, it doesn't mean that you will always listen to me." In the future, you will be in charge of everything, and since I recommend you, I believe that you have enough ability to solve Nanzhao. The war in the south will be left to you. ”

Ge Shuhan was a little sad when he heard this, the brand of the Hexi Army had already been engraved in his heart, how could it be so easy to give up.

"But ......" Pei Min glanced left and right, and said softly: "I have a favor here, and I need your help." ”

Ge Shuhan said solemnly: "Pei Shuai, please speak." ”

Pei Min said: "If you really have this opportunity to be promoted to the envoy of Jiannan Jiedu, there should be a general under your command, his name is Xian Yu Zhongtong!" ”

The defeat of Nanzhao gave Li Longji a hard slap in the face.

Li Longji was furious and punished almost all the generals of the Southern Expedition, even the Jiedu envoy himself.

Xian Yu Zhongtong and Wang Kezhao are the only two people who have not been punished, but have been promoted, because of their outstanding military achievements.

"Wait for my news, and I'll tell you how to do it as soon as I'm sure of something."
