Chapter 737: Fueling the Flames (1)

On September 11 of the third year of Yifeng, just after Chongyang, the number of more than 300 people of the Great Food Envoy Group had rushed to Chang'an City accompanied by Liu Ziming, the general of the Right Xiaowei, so the day to Honglu Temple to submit the credentials, after being placed in the Li Fan Yuan by the Ministry of Rites, once the news spread, the Manjing Division was hotly discussed, and the battle for war and peace was big, boiling, so lively.

"Your Highness, General Liu Ziming is here."

No matter what kind of commotion was outside, Li Xian didn't pay attention to it, not that he didn't care, but that the autumn harvest was imminent, and there were so many submissions from the state newspapers that Li Xian didn't even have time to breathe, so he buried his head in the official documents, and was in a hurry, but saw Gao Miao hurriedly turn out from behind the screen, hurried to the front, and hurriedly reported a sentence.

"Oh? Ziming is here, okay, Xuan! ”

Although he was riddled with official documents, Li Xian was still very happy when he heard that Liu Ziming was coming, put the pen in his hand on the pen stand, and ordered with a smile.

"No!"

Li Xian had already made a statement, Gao Miao didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly answered, and hurriedly exited the study.

"The last general will see His Highness!"

Since the farewell to Hexi, Liu Ziming has not seen Li Xian for nearly two years, and at this time, when he saw Li Xian, who was sitting at the top, was looking at him with a smile on his face, Liu Ziming's eyes were immediately moist, and he hurriedly rushed to the front, bowed, and performed a standard military salute.

"Excuse me, Ziming has worked hard all the way, come here, give Ziming a seat!"

Looking at Liu Ziming's face, which was already a little vicissitudes, Li Xian couldn't help but feel a burst of excitement in his heart, and suddenly remembered the situation when he first met in Lantian, and now nine years have passed, and the shy young man has now grown into a general of Xuanang, which really makes Li Xian feel a lot of emotion in his heart, and after being stunned for a while, he raised his hand with a smile and greeted him cordially.

"Your Highness!"

Liu Ziming thanked him respectfully, and then sat down on the brocade pier carried by a group of small eunuchs, with a tall military posture, and he listened to Li Xian's instructions respectfully.

"Well, Ziming is now a big official, and the rules are also bigger, look, he also has the demeanor of a general in front of this palace."

As soon as he saw Liu Ziming putting on such a well-behaved appearance, Li Xian couldn't help but laugh.

"Your Highness, the last general ......"

Liu Ziming has been the commander of Li Xian's personal guards for many years, and he has always been very skinny, and among the full pro-guards, the most unruly one belongs to him Liu Ziming.

"That's it, just relax in front of this palace."

After Li Xian teased Liu Ziming, he didn't hold on, laughed and waved his hand to signal that Liu Ziming didn't have to be nervous.

"Hehe, Your Highness is still considerate, poor me Ziming is leading the soldiers now, and he doesn't come out with any pretenses, and those boys below are not going against the sky."

When Li Xian said this, Liu Ziming smiled shyly, and his original form was immediately revealed.

"Oh? Hahaha...... this palace has not been so happy for a long time, come, tell this palace, what is the war ahead? ”

Li Xian was amused by Liu Ziming's skin, and after laughing heartily, he asked about business.

"Back to His Royal Highness, since the defeat of our army in the Surhan River valley after the total annihilation of the enemy's 150,000 troops, wave the army straight down more than 40 cities, the momentum is like a bamboo, almost no resistance, to the beginning of May has recovered the entire territory of Persia, in early June, the Great Food Army Moose gathered at the border, but did not cross the border to fight, but sent a messenger to come to the test, saying that there is an envoy to Chang'an and my Tang Dynasty peace, General Lin and the last general and other discussions, think that there may be sincerity, so he sent the last general to lead the troops to escort the envoy into Beijing, this way is also smooth, There are no twists and turns. ”

When it came to business, Liu Ziming didn't dare to be skinny anymore, his face was solemn, and he briefly described the cause and effect of the matter.

"Well, can you hold it up ahead?"

Li Xian did not comment on what Liu Ziming said, but thought quietly for a moment, and then continued to ask.

"Attack, I am afraid that there will be difficulties, the code will be stable, under the successive victories of our department, the morale is booming, and there are 8,000 reinforcements sent by General Wang to help, the enemy is pouring into the nest to attack, and it will definitely win our army!"

Speaking of the situation on the front line, Liu Ziming's confidence can be said to be very full, and he gave a positive answer without hesitation.

"Well, Ziming has been working on a saddle horse all the way, so let's go down and rest first, and tonight the palace will set up a banquet for you."

Li Xian didn't ask any more, just smiled and waved his hand, and pulled Liu Ziming back, but he himself fell into deep thought......

There are two flowers, one for each, not to mention that Li Xian is contemplating in the study of the East Palace, but it is said that in the Yue Palace, Li Zhen is also gathering all his henchmen to discuss the visit of the Great Food Envoy Group.

"Wushuang, Shoude, you should already know about the matter, and Lone won't say much, let's talk about it, do you have any plans for this?"

The Caizhou case has long been over, but Li Zhen's mood has never really calmed down, just because the blow he received is too great, even if Li Zhen's nerves are tough, some of them can't bear it, and he has been seriously ill for a few days, and he has just recovered, but his face is still not very good.

"Lord, the son-in-law thinks that this is a good opportunity for us to take advantage of the situation, so I just need to operate it properly, and I can't eat and walk around the prince!"

In the Yue Wangfu family, Pei Shoude has always been as famous as Chen Wushuang, and because he is the son-in-law of the Yue Wang, he has always regarded himself as the first strategist of the palace.

"Well, go on."

Li Zhen's original intention was to take the opportunity to yin Li Xian, naturally he would not see what was strange, the only thing that was uncertain was how this black hand should be properly handled, and there would be no objection to Pei Shoude's judgment.

"Wang Ye Mingjian, the reason why the war and the dispute are now big is nothing more than the wrestling between the mother and the prince, for Sheji, and should be the most advantageous choice, but in terms of heaven, the war is the right thing, and the difference is in' On the word 'military power', Niangniang's actions, the fundamental purpose is to cut the military power in the hands of the prince, once it can be done, the prince will be powerless, but the fish and meat on the board, you can go down at any time, now the key is who dominates the peace discussion, if the son-in-law is not bad, the mother and the prince will fight for the candidates for the peace discussion, why not take advantage of the situation, the power of the peace conference firmly in his hands, at that time, war, and peace is not the final word of the prince. ”

As soon as he saw that Li Zhen acquiesced in his judgment, Pei Shoude came to his senses and hurriedly explained his own opinions in detail.

"Hmm......, what do you think of Wushuang?"

Li Zhen originally played such an idea in his heart, and he also had a certain degree of certainty, after all, whether it was status or identity, in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, there were few people who could be compared with it, if he came forward to dispute the right to peace, it would be difficult for others to veto it, plus the queen of the martial arts, even if Li Xian insisted on it, he definitely gained a great advantage in the court discussion, of course, I think so, if I really want to do this, Li Zhen still can't help but have some doubts in his heart, just because Li Xian is not very good with his generation, In case if he was to highlight the strange soldiers, he would shoot himself in the foot if he didn't make a good trouble, so he didn't dare to make a decision easily, and after muttering for a while, he still threw the problem to Chen Wushuang, who was silent.

"Back to the prince's words, I thought that Brother Shoude's analysis was indeed not bad, and this time Niangniang did have the intention to take this opportunity to cut His Royal Highness's military power, however, this is not the key, the person who really wants to do this should be the saint! Because of this, it may be difficult to reach this peace agreement, and there is no need for the prince to personally take action to handle it, just help the mother beat the side drum during the court meeting. ”

Chen Wushuang obviously did not agree with Pei Shoude's suggestion, frowned slightly, and broke the crux of the matter in a few words.

"Huh?"

As soon as she heard Chen Wushuang say this, Li Zhen couldn't help but be stunned, silent for a long time, and couldn't guess what the mystery of promoting Li Xian to preside over the peace conference was, so she had to turn her puzzled eyes to Chen Wushuang.

"The prince is clear, but whoever makes peace must eventually make concessions, if the bottom line is set in advance, even if it is a good woman, I am afraid it will be difficult to cook without rice."

Although Li Zhen didn't speak, Chen Wushuang saw Li Zhen's doubts at a glance, so he nodded lightly.

"The bottom line? ......Well, wonderful, wonderful, if the prince takes over this matter, but can't come up with the results for a long time, see how it can be rampant, good, very good! ”

Li Zhenyuan is not a dull person, and when Chen Wushuang mentioned this, he immediately came to his senses, and couldn't help but applaud.

"Lord Wang, don't be anxious first, this time we have made a contribution, then we can't give it in vain, I gave the name, this benefit should always have to be given to the mother, the fourth prince is now idle, why don't you take this matter and do it together."

Chen Wushuang is not a good type, although he has decided to take this opportunity to hand over his name to the Empress Wu, but he will never forget to seek the benefits he deserves for his own side because of this.

"Yes, that's how it should be, Shoude, then go to the kid Ge Gong and pass on the meaning of Lone."

Li Zhen has always acted decisively, and now that she has made a decision, she acts very quickly.

"No, son-in-law, I'll do it."

Seeing that his efforts fell into the void again, Pei Shoude's mood was really unhappy, but since Li Zhen had already given the order, he didn't dare to have any objections, so he could only respond respectfully, hurriedly withdrew from the study, and went to handle the relevant matters without mentioning it......
