Today's Pei Min's status is no longer what it used to be, and he is originally an alternative in the festival envoys.

In addition to the power of the temperance envoy, he also serves as the envoy and holds the military and political power of Longyou. Now it is the envoy of the two towns, holding the frontier of the great northwest in danger.

His every move is almost in the eyes of the world.

Since he used thunderous means to rectify the military affairs of Hexi, people in the world have begun to comment on it.

Support it, feel that he is in a hurry, anyway, the Tang Dynasty is enlightened and does not use words to judge crimes.

Not to mention the true scribes and talents who care about the world, the fake scribes who are good-looking and lively, and even the people will talk about it in their spare time.

Pei Min's assassination, such a big thing, can't be hidden from the people of the world.

How to assassinate, how to assassinate, the rumors describe the sound and color, as if you saw it with your own eyes.

Especially Geng Hou, the former governor who colluded with horse thieves, assassinated Pei Min at close range with his arm open crossbow, and people who knew the power of the arm open crossbow had a feeling that Pei Min was more than lucky.

The power of the arm-open crossbow is too great, and it can be regarded as the most powerful weapon in individual combat in this era. If it is equipped with a special armor-piercing crossbow arrow, the iron armor will not be able to stop it.

Pei Min's flesh and blood, how to resist?

As a result, there were rumors that Pei Min was deeply injured and in danger.

The rumors are still intensifying, and many versions have been derived.

As a result, the entire Hexi region was in a panic.

In Xizhou, the news of Pei Min's assassination reached Xizhou.

Xia Shan heard the news and found Cui Xiyi, the governor of Xizhou, as soon as possible.

"Dudu, do you know the news of Pei Shuai's assassination?"

Cui Xiyi looked at the map intently, his face was calm, and he said without any fluctuations: "I heard it!" ”

Xia Shan was angry from the bottom of her heart, and she transferred Pei Min to Xizhou to assist Cui Xiyi.

But the two of them are not compatible, Cui Xiyi is a literati, although he understands military affairs, he can't avoid the problems of literati.

"Only women and villains are difficult to raise, those who are close are not inferior, and those who are far away are resentful."

This famous quote of Confucius corresponds to the situation of the two of them.

Cui Xiyi didn't want to have a good relationship with Xia Shan, but Xia Shan was Yun Ying's unmarried body and belonged to Huanghua's eldest daughter, he was worried that he would be too close and cause criticism, and if he was far away, there would be estrangement, so his attitude was neither cold nor hot, and he was particularly entangled......

Xia Shan is a rectum, thinking that Cui Xiyi has the stinky problem of literati, looking down on them, and she doesn't bother to use her hot face to stick to her cold ass.

As a member of the Longyou Army, Xia Shan still has great respect for Pei Min, the boss, even more than her uncle Guo Zhiyun, the former Longyou Jiedu envoy.

Seeing that Cui Xiyi didn't care about Pei Min's life and death at all, Xia Shan was already full of anger, and instantly exploded, shouting: "Pei Shuai treats us as his own, I want to go back to Liangzhou to visit." ”

Cui Xiyi was stunned, and suddenly said: "Envoy Xia misunderstood, it's not that I don't care about Pei Shuai's safety, it's just that you and I are not famous doctors, but we are both willing and powerless." Instead of messing up his mind, it is better to handle the things arranged by Pei Shuai properly and let him recuperate with peace of mind. I believe that Ji people have their own natural appearance, Pei Shuaifu has a big life, and he is just a thief, and he can't take his life. ”

Xia Shan has also been in battle for a long time, and when she heard what Cui Xiyi said, she hesitated: "What does Cui Dudu mean by this?" ”

Cui Xiyi said in a deep voice: "I have been in Xizhou for more than half a month, and I specially invited the former governor Cao Yingjie to learn from him about the situation of thieves in the territory. It is almost certain that the horse thieves in Xizhou are not real thieves, but a different race of grasslands, and they are raiding under the guise of horse thieves. To deal with them, we can't use the means of dealing with horse thieves to make a small fuss, they have the support of the clan behind them, and the small-scale attrition cannot hurt their muscles and bones. If you don't hurt them, it won't be long before they come back. There are a thousand days to be a thief, but there is no reason to prevent thieves for a thousand days. The former governor suffered this loss, he could prevent it twice or three times, but he couldn't prevent it four times or five times. Only by hurting them and making them dare not come again, can they do it once and for all. ”

A trace of anger flashed in Xia Shan's eyes, and she clenched her fists and said, "You mean, that group of miscellaneous people want to take advantage of Pei Shuai's assassination to take advantage of the fire to rob?" ”

"I'm not sure, but it's possible!" Cui Xiyi's eyes flashed with a few hints of wisdom, and said: "They are not horse thieves, they are irregular, and they rise at will. When they attacked, they did so after the counsel of wise men and counselors, so that they could guess their whereabouts. The more chaotic our side is, the greater the chance of their attack, just like the Turks took advantage of Xue Dudu's illness to attack Liangzhou. If it weren't for Pei Dudu's coincidence in Liangzhou and being able to restrain Yang Jingshu, you can imagine what the situation would be in Liangzhou. ”

"How can it be!" Xia Shan thought that someone actually used Pei Min's assassination to make a fuss, and her anger rose, exuding the momentum of no one should enter.

Cui Xiyi was also a little surprised, he didn't expect Pei Min to be so popular, so he had an idea, and suddenly said: "I have a plan, maybe I can increase the probability of thieves attacking." ”

Xia Shan bowed to Cui Xiyi and said, "Governor, please say, I will fully cooperate." What you said is right, I will go to Liangzhou, I can't change everything, it is better to stay in Xizhou, kill the enemy in the future, and let Pei Shuai recuperate with peace of mind. ”

Cui Xiyi smiled: "Envoy Xia, what do you think of our relationship?" ”

Xia Shan's face was slightly embarrassed, and she paused and said, "I was disrespectful to the governor before I went down, and I hope the governor will understand." ”

Cui Xiyi waved his hand and said, "This is not a military envoy alone, and I tell the truth." There is a very virtuous wife who serves her mother and raises her children in her hometown. I didn't want any gossip to spread to my hometown, so I kept a distance from the military envoy. ”

As soon as the misunderstanding between them was resolved, Xia Shan immediately laughed and said, "I thought that Du Du looked down on me as a rough person, Du Du turned out to be a man of temperament, but I misunderstood you." ”

This time she sincerely apologized.

Cui Xiyi also returned the salute seriously, and then said: "Our relationship is not harmonious, and the other party must know it." Why don't we intensify the contradictions now, and then the military envoy goes to Liangzhou to 'visit' Pei Shuai? ”

Xia Shan instantly understood, understood, and clasped her hands together and said, "That's it!" ”

Soon, the news of Cui Xiyi and Xia Shan tearing their faces spread in Xizhou.

Xia Shan was transferred to Xizhou by the Longyou Army, originally directly under Pei Min, but now he has been replaced by Cui Xiyi, the governor of Xizhou, and lacks basic respect for this new boss.

And Cui Xiyi used to be prosperous in Suzhou, and maintained Suzhou in an orderly manner, but he was transferred to the chaotic and complicated Xizhou, and he had already complained in his heart.

One respects Pei Min like a god, and the other has complaints about his heart.

The two have been fighting a cold war, defending the superficial relationship of the defenders.

Pei Min's attack became the fuse for their intensified contradictions, instantly igniting their weak peace.

Xia Shan directly ignored Cui Xiyi, left her post without permission, and went to Liangzhou to visit Pei Min......
