The military report is not too long, only a thousand words, and there is only one thing written - ten days ago, the two departments of Asugu Tsering and Chili Hezan in the hometown of Tubo suddenly joined forces with more than 70,000 troops to attack the Hetzzan department, ** Wang Bing, the chief general of the Hongshan Palace, sent troops to coordinate, the battle was unfavorable, and he could only retreat to the Hongshan Palace to hold on, and now the Hertzzan department has been defeated, and its troops were divided by the two departments. Ask the imperial court to send a large army to quell the rebellion as soon as possible.

"This Wang Bing really deserves to be killed, the matter has come to such a field to report the news, and he has already done something!"

Empress Wu was very anxious, and she saw it quickly, and almost swept the contents of the general's report at a glance, and her face instantly became ugly, and she was angry.

"Niangniang is angry, General Wang only has 3,000 cavalry under his command, it is really difficult to quell the chaos, now that the matter is out, it must be pacified as soon as possible, otherwise, I am afraid that Tubo will be troubled again."

"Niangniang, what Liu Xiang said is very true, and now that the chaos has started, it must be pacified by the army, and it is not possible to raise tigers for trouble."

Pei and Liu are both civil and military all-rounders, and they are also old figures who lead the troops to fight old battles, and their strategic vision is not bad.

"Hmm!"

Although the Empress Wu does not know military affairs, but the basic common sense is still there, naturally know that the two old ministers are telling the truth, but she is extremely unwilling in her heart, just because she wants to calm the rebellion in the hometown of Tibet, only by relying on the Hexi Army to attack, in this way, the original plan of the Empress Wu is afraid that it will have to fall into the void, as soon as I think of the military and political power in Hexi is still firmly controlled by Li Xian since then, how can the Empress Wu feel at ease, at this time the heart is already in a mess, and he did not pay attention to the proposal of the two ministers, but just said noncommittally, which can be regarded as an answer.

"Niangniang Mingjian, the army of Tubo's hometown is pragmatic and heavy, and only His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can deal with it calmly in the whole world, and the old minister thinks that this matter must be planned by His Royal Highness the Prince."

Liu Renliang is now under Li Xian's command, so he naturally has to act at Li Xian's pace, and he doesn't care if Empress Wu's face is good-looking or not, so he went further.

"Humph!"

As soon as he heard that Liu Renliang was so blatantly building momentum for Li Xian, the anger in the heart of the Empress Wu "poofed", and she snorted coldly with a gloomy face.

"Niangniang, the matter of military affairs is not trivial, and the old minister thinks that he must quickly make it clear to His Majesty."

Although Pei Xingjian is also interested in Li Xian, he is not Li Xian's henchman in the end, and at this time, seeing Liu Renliang respecting Li Xian so much in front of the Empress Wu, he couldn't help but be a little surprised, lest the Empress Wu be angry and misunderstand the matter, so he hurriedly interrupted from the side.

"Your Majesty, don't ......, that's good, just go to the saint first."

Empress Wu really wanted to suppress this military report first, but after thinking about it, this possibility is too low, in case it is not beautiful if it damages the saint's family because of this, and after a little silence, he also agreed to Pei Xingjian's proposal, but he did not mention the matter of summoning Li Xian to come to discuss, obviously intending to exclude Li Xian from the decision-making.

"Niangniang and slow, Tubo is the peace of His Royal Highness the Prince, and most of the surrounding armies are the old departments of His Royal Highness the Prince, if you want to discuss countermeasures, you must have the help of His Royal Highness the Prince."

Although the calculation of the Empress Wu was good, it was a pity that Liu Renliang did not agree, and before the Empress Wu left, he had already interjected from the side.

"Well, then go and announce it, come here, set up the Zichen Palace!"

Being beaten by Liu Renliang like this, the Empress Wu hated in her heart, but it was not good to reprimand Liu Renliang's rudeness, after all, what Liu Renliang said was right, even if the Empress Wu was angry, she had no choice but to give a casual order, but did not specify who to summon Li Xian, making it clear that she didn't want Li Xian to participate in the imperial deliberations, and then, without waiting for Liu Renliang to speak again, she had already walked out of the study quickly.

As soon as Empress Wu left, Pei Xingjian and Liu Renliang couldn't help but shake their heads and smile bitterly, but they didn't dare to say anything more, so they could only silently follow behind Empress Wu's car, and the group walked towards Zichen Palace......

"The queen of heaven has arrived!"

The day will be October, it is the time of autumn high and cool, for Gaozong who is afraid of cold and heat, it is the most relaxed day of the year, it has been more than half a month without illness, although the body is still weak, but the spirit is much better, just after the meal, and not very sleepy, is leaning on the brocade mat, looking at the miscellaneous books with great interest, this cold and unheard the sound of shouting, lest the queen of the martial arts be surprised, busy stuffing the miscellaneous books in his hand into the quilt, turned over and sat up straight.

"The concubine (old minister) knocks to see Your Majesty!"

Gaozong sat up straight, and before he could even smooth out the wrinkles on his shirt, he saw that Empress Wu, Pei and Liu Erxiang had already walked in together, and they all paid homage according to the rules of the court.

"Excuse me, excuse me, Mei Niang, but what's wrong?"

As soon as he saw that Pei and Liu, the two rotating Zaifu, also followed, Gaozong's heart immediately "chuckled", and he hurriedly asked a question.

"Back to Your Majesty's words, there is an urgent report from Hongshan Palace, saying that the war in the hometown of Tubo has broken out again."

Although he was reluctant to tell the story of the war in his heart, Gaozong asked, but Empress Wu did not dare to hide it, so he replied worriedly.

"Ah, how so? Isn't Tibet extinct? Why is it messing up again, this, this ......"

Gaozong's ambition in his early years had long been tormented by recurring illnesses, and now he had only one thought, that is, to be the emperor in peace, and when he heard that Tubo was in chaos again, his face changed instantly, and he stood up angrily and issued a series of questioning words.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, the situation has not yet reached a bad place, the current Hongshan Palace military report is here, please take a look."

Seeing that Gaozong was flustered, the worry in the heart of the Empress Wu couldn't help but be a little deeper, but it was not easy to show it, so the general could only take out the report and hand it to Gaozong.

"Humph! These sons are really unreasonable, I don't believe it! Hmm, where is Xian'er? ”

General Gaozong hurriedly went through the report, and saw that it was the Tubo people who were killing each other, and the panic in his heart calmed down a little, but he didn't dare to take it lightly, and after venting a few words, he suddenly asked about Li Xian's situation.

"Back to Your Majesty, the old minister has sent someone to invite you."

Empress Wu just said that he would call someone to proclaim, but in fact he never really sent someone to go, and when he heard Gaozong ask about Li Xian, he inevitably had some muttering in his heart, and he was not good at speaking clearly, but Liu Renliang stood up from the side and replied loudly.

"Well, okay, then let's wait for Xian'er to come, and then discuss it together."

Although Gaozong had a slight suspicion of Li Xian, he was extremely confident in Li Xian's military talents, and when he heard that Li Xian was coming, he was also a lot more relieved, and he was not in a hurry to discuss the matter, but ordered the eunuchs who accompanied him to give Pei and Liu Erxiang a seat, and waited for Li Xian's arrival.

"Your Majesty, Niangniang, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is asking to see you outside the palace gate."

Li Xian arrived quickly, and everyone had just sat down for a while, when they saw Liu Ruming, the deputy chief eunuch of Zichen Palace, hurriedly turned out from behind the screen, hurriedly rushed to the front of the bed, bowed to Gaozong and Empress Wu, and reported in a loud voice.

"Xuan, Xuan!"

As soon as he heard that Li Xian had arrived, Gaozong suddenly felt that he had a backbone, and he said without saying a word.

"No!"

Since Gaozong had already given an order, Liu Ruming dared to slack off, hurriedly agreed, and hurriedly withdrew from the dormitory, and after a while, he was already accompanied by Li Xian, who was sweating and heavily dressed, and turned in from outside.

"The sons and daughters knock to see the father and the queen mother."

Li Xian hurriedly rushed to the front of the bed, and hurried to pay a big salute.

"Excuse me, excuse me, Xian'er can know that Tubo is messy again!"

Gao Zong's heart was worried about the war, and he didn't wait for General Li Xian to finish his salute, and he had already roared urgently.

"Back to my father's words, the son was presiding over the peace conference before, and suddenly heard that there was a change in Tibet, so he was already in a hurry, and I don't know what the details are."

The so-called Tubo Chaos was the result of Li Xian's secret deployment, and he knew the details in his heart, but it was impossible for him to behave in any way at this time, so he pretended to be anxious and replied.

"Oh, that's good, Xian'er read the military report first."

Gaozong did not suspect that Li Xian had an ambush in this matter, and when he heard that Li Xian did not know the specific content of the military report, he hurriedly picked up the military newspaper that was left at hand and handed it to Li Xian.

Although the origin of this chaos cannot be examined, it is not difficult to calm it, but it is difficult to stabilize all parties, so the sons and daughters think that they should be suppressed and appeased, and supplemented by educating their people, or they can ensure that there will be no more such chaos."

Although the military report was not long, Li Xian read it very slowly, and after a careful review, he raised his eyebrows and said in a gentle tone the general principles of quelling the chaos.

"Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that His Royal Highness's words are right, and it should be feasible!"

Liu Renliang himself is proficient in military and political affairs, and he can hear that the feasibility of Li Xian's strategy is extremely high, and he is now Li Xian's confidant, so he naturally wants to shout for Li Xian, and he has already praised it from the side without waiting for Gaozong to say something.

"Suppress and appease, supplemented by education? Hmm, it sounds feasible, Mei Niang, Pei Aiqing, do you have any different opinions on this? ”

Gaozong didn't want the war to last too long, and he didn't object to hearing Li Xian's words, but for the sake of prudence, he didn't rush to make a decision, but inquired about the opinions of Empress Wu and Pei Xingjian.

"Your Majesty is clear, and the old minister has no objection."

Although Pei Xingjian is not Li Xian's confidant, but in his heart, he is towards Li Xian, of course, in his opinion, there is nothing wrong with this general rule, he will not have a side opinion to speak of, and it is a matter of duty to echo his words, but Empress Wu did not say a word, his brows were tightly locked into the word "Sichuan", as if he had endless worries......
