On July 27, the third year of Yifeng, Liu Renliang's case in Caizhou was complicated and difficult to take into account, so he requested that the soldiers be divided into two routes, and he himself rushed to Caizhou to investigate the case, and the Dajiaoguan matter was entrusted to Liu Yizhi for disposal. On July 28, Liu Renliang led the crowd to Caizhou, while Liu Yizhi, together with the Dali Temple and the Criminal Department, was responsible for surveying the identity of the Dajiao Guanren.

The identity and origin of the Dajiao Guanren are undoubtedly Xibei goods, if you really want to check, it is naturally impossible to hide, but it depends on who is investigating, as far as Liu Yizhi is concerned, he will naturally not do anything to uncover the truth, of course, he does not dare not "seriously" to investigate, because not only the prince and the party are watching, but also the people of the world are watching, so Liu Yizhi can only check it with great fanfare, and he summoned all kinds of people in the Dajiao Palace to record confessions, and sent personnel to Qixia Mountain and Jiugong Mountain to collect evidence, which was so noisy, As for the progress, it is almost none, not for anything else, just because Liu Yizhi didn't dare to close the case easily, what he was afraid of was that once this chapter was moved, it was very likely that he would be caught by the prince's side, so he could only drag it out to investigate, and this delay was nearly a month, until the chapter of Caizhou Liu Renliang arrived in Beijing, Liu Yizhi hurriedly closed the case, and then also went to this chapter.

Liu Renliang's chapter is very long, there are as many as 10,000 words, and the entire case is analyzed in detail and detail, as for the conclusion, it is not much different from the Caizhou assassin Liu Daming's performance, but it is pointed out that the people of Qixia Mountain are very likely to be the "facts" of the remnants of Wagang, and this is to ask the imperial court to strictly arrest the remnants of Qixia Mountain, of course, at the end of this chapter, I did not forget the dereliction of duty of impeaching Liu Daming, the assassin of Caizhou, and Sima Li Chun, and Liu Yizhi's chapter unsurprisingly proves the "innocence" of the people of Dajiao Palace, The two chapters were sent to the Empress Wu one after the other, and the specific investigation was considered to be a conclusion, and the rest depended on how the Empress Wu came up with a decision.

On August 28, the third year of Yifeng, it was the day of the Great Dynasty again, and Empress Wu instructed the Caizhou case in court, first commending the diligence of the two presiding judges Liu Renliang and Liu Yizhi, and then, not allowing the ministers to question it, they made a final ruling on the whole case - Liu Daming, the assassin of Caizhou, committed dereliction of duty, however, he was able to crack the whole case in time, not without merit, although the merit was not enough to atonement for the crime, but it was not suitable to be punished severely. Caizhou Sima Li Chun's protection of Qin Cha is unfavorable, which is really a big mistake, thinking that he has made small achievements in solving this case, he will not be severely punished, and he will be dismissed; Qixia Mountain is rampant, the crime is unforgivable, and the criminal department issues a sea fishing document, and the world wants it! At the same time, the Empress Wu did not forget to confirm the "innocence" of the Dajiaoguan people in court, and forbade the subjects of the world to discuss more on the grounds that the state religion masters would not tolerate blasphemy.

The case is over, it is over, Li Xian didn't stir up more trouble in this case, first, there is no need, Li Xian who should be left and right has already arrived, and it is difficult to have a big harvest no matter how many branches are born, but if you pretend to be confused, forget it, secondly, there is another major event that has involved Li Xian's energy, that is, the Great Food Country has sent a large envoy group to conclude an alliance with the Tang Dynasty, and now it has passed the Longguan Pass and is rushing to Chang'an.

In his opinion, this is a cancer country, and it must be completely eradicated, but now the time is not yet ripe, and it is not yet the time to really start it, it is not impossible to conclude a contract that is beneficial to the Tang Dynasty, and the left and right covenant is signed, and the only role is to tear it up, even if it is a little concession, it is not a big deal, in view of this, Li Xian is ready to sign the last peace agreement, for this reason, let out some rumors, In order to test the reaction of the courtiers to this, but unexpectedly, the news was released, and it set off an uproar, and the voice of war suddenly rose, as if the Great Eclipse could not show the strength of the Tang Dynasty.

"Gong Zhang, Gong Di, it seems that the queen mother will not give up if she does not exhaust all the soldiers in the hands of the palace, I am afraid that she will not give up, the matter has come to this point, what should it be?"

In the study of the East Palace, Li Xian, who was dressed in civilian clothes, sat on the top, looked at the two strategists with a cold expression, opened his mouth in a deep tone, and there was a faint evil spirit in his eyes - now, how could Li Xian not see through the cattiness behind the loud voice of war, the left and right are just the Wuhou party is fueling the troubles, in order not to sincerely promote the national prestige of the Tang Dynasty, but to send all the Hexi Army run by Li Xian to the distant Middle East, and weaken the military power in Li Xian's hands from the root. This is obviously not a situation that Li Xianle sees.

"Your Royal Highness, the reason why this wind is rising is probably not only the queen of heaven fanning the flames behind, but Your Majesty may not have this intention, if you add the king of Yue to add fuel to the fire, the situation may take a sharp turn, and you must not guard against it."

Li Xian can see through the strangeness, Zhang Cambodia can naturally too, not only that, he can see it more thoroughly than Li Xian, and his words are full of worry.

"Well, what Zhang Gong said is very true, what the palace is worried about is this, in the eyes of the palace, the rear party is not afraid, and the eighth uncle can't make a big wave, only the father and the emperor, but it is very difficult to focus, what can the second prince teach me?"

Li Xian is a wise man, Zhang Khan only reminded him, he quickly woke up, his heart sank, although his face was still calm, but there were already layers of fine beads of sweat on his forehead - since ancient times, the emperor's heart is the most unpredictable, in front of the big position, the heavenly family has never had a father and son, no emperor can tolerate the subordinate people and other people who support the army and respect themselves, the reason why there was an expedition of the Hexi Army to the Persian Gulf before, is that Gaozong's psychology is at fault, this time only a little teased after the martial arts, Gaozong is not pushing the boat with the water is a strange thing- If the battle can be won, the prestige of the Tang Dynasty can be raised at the same time, Gaozong can also justifiably leave all the Hexi army in the Middle East, and quietly remove Li Xian's military power, if he is defeated, for Gaozong, it doesn't matter, the survival of the Hexi army on the left and right will not affect the stability of the central power at all, there is such an opportunity to eliminate Li Xian's military power, how can Gaozong not allow it.

"Your Highness, don't worry, Di has a strategy, maybe it can be used, but you have to take some risks."

Being able to see the danger does not mean that you can find a proper way to deal with it, even if it is as strong as Li Xian, it also has a sense of being stretched, but Di Renjie didn't care, smiled slightly, and said a word of relief.

"Oh? What is Di Gong's plan, please tell me and listen to it. ”

When Li Xianzheng couldn't think about it, when he heard that Di Renjie had a way to deal with this matter, his heart suddenly relaxed, and he hurriedly asked.

"Your Royal Highness Mingjian, the army of Hexi arose in the disaster of Tibet, now Tubo has been flattened, the foundation of existence has been lost, Your Majesty has already had the heart of reduction, the reason why you dare not plan early, is nothing more than the divine power of Your Highness, this time has been a long time, and it is indeed the time for Your Majesty to take power, if you want the Hexi Army not to move, then you should make some articles on the matter of Tubo, but it is easy to get up and down, it is difficult to pacify, but the balance is not easy to grasp, the minister does not dare to say that it is appropriate, and His Royal Highness must make a detailed decision."

Li Xianyou asked, Di Renjie would not fail to answer, so he analyzed the situation and Gaozong's psychological changes in detail, and then vaguely pointed out the solution.

"Hmm......"

As soon as he heard Di Renjie say this, Li Xian's head couldn't help but get bigger, you must know that Tubo is the land of tigers and wolves, when Tubo was wiped out, the powerful Hexi Army attacked, and it cost tens of thousands of soldiers' lives, so that Tubo could be regarded as forcibly destroying the country, if the situation on the plateau rises again, then I don't know how many soldiers will be filled in it, this risk Li Xian really doesn't want to take it!

"Does Zhang Gong have another strategy?"

Li Xian pondered for a long time, but he still couldn't make up his mind, so he threw the question to the silent Zhang Cambodia.

"Although Di Gong's plan is dangerous, if it is properly controlled, it is also a clever move, but the timing must be grasped and stopped, too early to appear, it is not conducive to the overall situation, too late, then it is difficult to change, and it must be done carefully."

Military power has always been a taboo for the emperor, even if Gaozong has not been in charge of government for a long time, but he will not tolerate Li Xian, the prince, has military power in his hands, even if this article is said to be broken, it is difficult to change Gaozong's mind of cutting power, Zhang Cambodia has seen this very thoroughly, and because of this, Zhang Cambodia has not come up with a more appropriate strategy, just refinement of Di Renjie's strategy.

"Timing? Hmmm......"

Seeing that the two strategists basically agreed on the same opinion, Li Xian also understood that things really had to be done like this, but the heaviness in his heart not only did not subside, but became a little heavier, and he muttered and refused to make a decision easily.

"Your Highness, it is expedient in an urgent matter, if the Hexi army leaves, His Highness will be liquidated by the Hou Party and the King of Yue, if it is really then, I am afraid that a big disaster will come!"

Li Xian was reluctant to make a decision, the atmosphere in the room was suffocating, Di Renjie was better, in the end, his temperament was more calm, and he could still stabilize his mind, but Zhang Cambodia, who was more anxious, couldn't help it, so he reminded again.

"Huh, ......, come here, and immediately pass on Zhuang Yong to see you!"

At this point, Li Xianshi can no longer remain silent, the reason is very simple, if he falls into the dilemma of being attacked and unable to defend himself, what can he talk about the future, therefore, even if he is reluctant, Li Xian can only helplessly grow out of his mouth, and then gritted his teeth, raised his voice, and broke his throat......
