"What can I do? Now that this remnant body can survive, it is a blessing that you can assist Your Majesty in the affairs of the court. As for the others who want to set up their own doors, as long as they don't break the law and discipline, what does the king do with them? ”

Cai Cong said lightly, Xu Jingzong was suddenly anxious, can this be ignored? Is the huge network of relationships that has been built up in 20 years just abandoned?

"Lord, don't do it! If you don't care, then isn't this a mess? Don't talk about a few auxiliary ministers, let's talk about other rising stars, the one who doesn't want to fight for the right to speak, and at that time the court will be in a miasma, and it is us who will suffer! ”

"You think too much, I can lead the troops in the war, but the dirty things in the court, Your Majesty is like a fish in water to deal with, and whoever wants to do things depends on whether Your Majesty agrees or not, do you understand?"

The last few words of Cai Cong's words particularly accentuated the tone, but unfortunately Xu Jingzong didn't care at all, or he didn't realize that there was no one behind Chu Yao to support her.

He said with a smile: "Your Majesty is of course extremely sage, but Your Majesty has his eyes on the world, and factional disputes are just a way of balance in his eyes. Looking at the eldest grandson Wuji this time, you can know that Your Majesty does not allow anyone to dominate the family, so even if someone sets up a mountain, Your Majesty will turn a blind eye. ”

"Since Your Majesty doesn't want the family to be dominant, why do you want to make a statement?"

Cai Cong asked coldly, Xu Jingzong was choked and almost speechless, and said hesitantly: "Then Your Majesty trusts the prince the most, if the prince can preside over the overall situation, Your Majesty will be happy to see it..."

"This king has spent 20 years assisting two generations of emperors to create this prosperous Tang Dynasty, and now he is full of scars and should naturally retire, and this stage should be left to the latecomers. Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng are all old, this position of Zaifu will definitely belong to you and Ma Zhou in less than five years, you will definitely be able to lead the coquettish for decades, why do you have to ask this king to come out and suffer this crime? ”

Cai Cong said lightly, Xu Jingzong wanted to speak and stopped, Cai Cong seemed to see through his thoughts, and said with a smile: "Don't look at you are already sixty, as long as you don't mess around and break down your body, you can still walk like a fly when you are eighty years old." But you remember, don't do a false and hidden evil thing, otherwise even if you become a left servant, this king can pinch you to death. ”

Cai Cong is a bit boastful of this, Xu Jingzong is eighty years old, Cai Cong said that he can still walk like a fly, but it is just to give him relief. But the heart should be wide, and the character should be controlled.

There is a greedy beast living in this guy's heart, Cai Cong added a lock to it, if this guy releases the beast in his heart with high power, it will be an out-and-out traitor.

"The minister knows that the minister must refrain from self-denial, and the minister's only hobby is fame and wealth, and now he is also a rich man, and he has won the reputation of a virtuous minister, and he will never do dirty things to ruin his future."

Xu Jingzong said with a smile, he has a clear understanding of himself, if there is no promotion from Cai Cong, he will definitely climb up by any means over the years, and it is possible to leave a stench for 10,000 years.

But now that he has money and power, how can he damage his feathers?

"That's the best, you go back first! There are so many big things waiting for you to deal with, you don't have to come to visit me every day. ”

Cai Cong nodded with satisfaction, Xu Jingzong saw that Cai Cong was a little tired, and left with interest.

After Xu Jingzong left, Cai Cong lifted the blanket and stood up and walked towards the room, these people came to him every day to find out, and he was already tired of it.

"Master, you're almost fine, why are you pretending to be sick every day, I feel tired when I look at it."

Da Niu followed behind Cai Cong step by step, and asked angrily, although people are really wasted, there is no problem with lying down, but the divine power of the body has disappeared, and it is not five labors and seven injuries.

"It's been so long, I've bled all over the Tai Chi Palace, and those mice who can't see the light haven't made any moves, so I can only continue to pretend."

Cai Cong said helplessly, now that the overall situation has been decided, just wait to take the Tubo Turks, they will return to the heart of the world, and what kind of prosperous era will it be at that time?

It's just that the only thing that makes him uneasy is those gods, in order to lure them into the bait, Cai Cong even asked Da Niu or Xiao Liuzi to protect him in the inner courtyard, but this can't let those dog offals take the bait, how can he not be annoyed?

"If I want to say it, send a large army to hunt them down, the world is so big, I don't believe they can hide."

Da Niu said innocently, Cai Cong couldn't help laughing, this guy has developed limbs and a simple mind, how big the world is, Kong Ming can't eradicate them in one fell swoop in ten years, where to send an army to find these gods?

When Cai Cong was irritable here, Li Chengqian was not happy, and news came from Dingxiang that the Tibetan generals led the people to surrender the month before last, and Su Dingfang accepted them, and half a month later, these scattered people actually made a mess at night, and more than 1,000 people slaughtered 2,000 sleeping soldiers overnight.

Su Dingfang was furious and all the surrenderers in the general were killed, and now he was sued by the military Sima to the imperial court.

"Your Majesty, why do you have a headache, this military newspaper concubine has already seen it, Su Dingfang is not wrong at all, if he only kills more than 1,000 people, who knows if there are any detailed works among the other Tubo soldiers who surrendered? If the other surrenderers are not killed, the spirit of the army will surely be shaken. ”

Chu Yao sat next to Li Chengqian and said, this kind of thing needs to be considered, yes, yes, is it possible that it is still a hidden danger?

Li Chengqian patted his head and said with a headache: "You don't know, these other Tubo soldiers who surrendered were all selected by the scouts stationed in Tubo, and the military Sima sent people to persuade them to surrender.

And these more than 1,000 people were surrendered by Su Dingfang and his party, it doesn't matter if he killed more than 1,000 people, he also killed other people who surrendered, which led to the failure of the strategy of Jun Sima to persuade the Tubo aristocracy to collectively pour water, and a large number of scouts in Tubo were killed. ”

Chu Yao opened her mouth wide and was speechless in surprise for a long time, she didn't think so far-reaching at all, she knew at least one thing when Li Chengqian said this, that is, even if the Tubo people died in battle, they would not dare to surrender in the future, Su Dingfang did it too ruthlessly.

"Why can't this Su Dingfang tell the difference, the soldiers will be guilty of eating it in the future."

Chu Yao said angrily, wanting to accuse Su Dingfang of two sentences, but thinking of Su Dingfang's merits over the years, she couldn't say it.

"You think the problem is still not far-reaching enough, this is Qinling's poisonous plan, first, it can make Tubo work together, and there is no need to worry about the fire in the rear; second, it can make the Tibetan soldiers not surrender, and the morale of the army has improved a lot; The most important thing is that a large number of scouts were killed, which was equivalent to blinding the army in one eye, and Su Dingfang had no face to command the army after making such a mistake, which was great news for Tubo. What Tubo is most afraid of at the moment is Su Dingfang, he has the shadow of Li Jing in his use of soldiers, and the Tubo people can't bear it! ”
