Chapter 318: A Laughing Leaf Drifting (2)
"Your Highness, the art of war is dead, but people are alive, the same situation, different terrain, different enemy generals, different weather, all of them can't be copied to death."
"Yes."
"The ministers of the sect have finished teaching, and it depends on how His Highness plays. The minister waited for the good news of His Highness. ”
"Pei Shilang, others think so, do you think so too?"
Pei Xingjian was silent, the edict had not yet been issued, but when the four daughters entered the palace, His Majesty's intention had been made clear, and the prince had to send the compensation for guilt. Besides, His Majesty has said cruel things to Li Jingxuan, if Liu Renliang asks me to go to Qinghai, I will also go, don't mention the prince.
There are not many people who are worried, the Yongwang Party gloats, and the prince leaves, so as to consolidate the position of Yongwang with peace of mind. I don't have to worry about it, the prince beat Tubo in the southwest, and there is a shield Fu Rui, and he will return from this victory, and he will be on the throne just around the corner. But in fact, it is not so optimistic, all kinds of signs show that this battle was deliberately provoked by Qinling, the first general in Tubo, and he was prepared to fight, and the prince had learned the art of war for so long, and he was still tender.
After hesitating for a while, he said: "Shangyuan Jiechen said that it may not be all bad. The two parties are fighting, if His Royal Highness is inactive, there will be a lot of things, and if there is no such thing, something similar to Liang Jinzhu will still happen in the near future. If His Highness behaves, His Highness bears the name of benevolence, and he is still an elder brother, and he will make people gossip. ”
"yes."
"Your Highness left, many people think that it is a plan, but in fact, it is not, the queen of heaven...... When the time comes, these people will regret it a lot. After leaving for a year and a half, I just avoided this turmoil. Although the emperor is reluctant to power...... His health is not very good, and he is not as wise as he was in his early years, but he is not a dark lord. His Royal Highness is gone, life and death on the battlefield are unpredictable, and King Yong will inevitably be supported just in case. This is also what some people want to see the most, but His Royal Highness is the crown prince after all, and once he returns, what these people have arranged can only be like a cloud of smoke, which will disperse as soon as the wind blows. And King Yong was impatient and at odds with the queen of heaven. The wisdom of His Royal Highness is silent in front of the Queen of Heaven, and His Royal Highness King Yong! If His Majesty makes a move, it is not to help King Yong, but to directly make King Yong face off against the Queen of Heaven. And let Your Majesty compare the two, who can better inherit the unification? The queen of heaven can also compare, who is more filial to her. ”
These words have been made clearer.
stayed in the East Palace, there was no escape, and he was also facing pressure from both the emperor and the queen and Li Xian. went to Qinghai, regardless of the victory or defeat, but also retreated. Take a step back and open the sky, anyway, stay in the East Palace, the emperor just won't abdicate, can the prince dare to mutiny? But as soon as he retreated, the pressure was relieved, which was to support Li Xian just in case, the prince was born and died for the country, and Lao Tzu drew a ladder in the back to seize his son's position as the crown prince. In that case, if the prince has a mutiny, the history books will not ridicule him too much.
This is an army of 180,000, and half of them were killed back to Luoyang or Chang'an, and Li Zhi obediently handed over the throne. What kind of conspiracy, in the face of absolute strength, is a small floating cloud and small waves. Of course, Li Zhi would not do such a stupid thing.
Pei Xingjian continued: "Your Highness don't worry, as long as the crown prince is safe and sound, many ministers are already determined, like Xianggong Hao, they will never abandon His Royal Highness, and choose His Royal Highness King Yong, who is slightly less qualified." As for some of the people who are on the wall, it is not a pity whether these people use them or not. And His Royal Highness has the biggest advantage of going to Qinghai, no matter what dynasty it is, you can't ignore the role of soldiers...... In this general battle, many Yulin guards were selected from Liangjing...... Although Taizong was ashamed of Xuanwu Sect, he was forced by the situation and had to send it, if he hadn't led the army for many years......"
Said intermittently.
"Your Highness is wise and wise, and it has become a general trend, but the strength is insufficient. If Qinghai returns, it will really become the trend of the river, even if it is difficult and difficult to hinder the danger of Longmen, as His Royal Highness said, the water flows downward, and no one can stop it! Even the dragon gate can't stop this trend. ”
These thoughts have been honed by Pei Xingjian for a long time, and when he says them, he is a heart-to-heart statement.
"Then what is Pei Shilang's good strategy for dealing with the Qinling?"
"His Royal Highness taught Li Xianggong what he said, the minister has seen it, and with this vision, the entire court will not exceed five people."
Li Wei secretly screamed ashamed, if he hadn't memorized some knowledge of later generations, or learned Li Jing's art of war, he wouldn't have this vision.
"The minister is in the eastern capital, and he has not been to Qinghai, and there is nothing to teach. However, there are also shortcomings in the Qinling, as His Royal Highness said, the Tibetan people are afraid of heat, and when the weather is hot, the Qinling will not fight a decisive battle with His Highness. This wins the time to set up. The national strength of the Tubo people is weak and there are many contradictions, and this time the war talks about Qinling also want to fight quickly to relieve the pressure. Therefore, after boiling it, Qinling will retreat. As long as he retreats, he can recover some of the lost territory, and he can also explain to the imperial court. There may be people who are dissatisfied, but His Royal Highness returned undefeated, with Xue Rengui's precedent, and others have nothing to say. Tibet is a soldier of the whole people, it is easy to gather, it is called in wartime, and it returns after the war. Therefore, the country is small, but it can repeatedly convene heavy troops to fight more and less. But it is also flawed, because the soldiers are usually herdsmen, except for a few garrisons, the army cannot be assembled all the time, and if it can be caught, it can make fighters. But Your Highness must remember that you must not be greedy for merit, and great things can be accomplished. ”
Of course, this is easier said than done.
……
The edict was issued in the limelight, and Li Wei was appointed as the marshal of the two marches in Taohe and Liangzhou, commanding an army of 180,000 to conquer Tibet. But the edict is quite intriguing, Li Wei served as the marshal of the march, and Li Jingxuan continued to serve as the chief governor. Li Zhi didn't want Li Jingxuan to return to the court immediately anyway. And if they restrain each other, Li Zhi will also feel at ease. He was also afraid that his son would not fight with Tubo with his army, but he held it in the palm of his hand and killed him back to Luoyang.
Li Wei didn't care, Li Jingxuan didn't know anything about the military, he wouldn't interfere if he didn't understand, and he was "his own person", so he could only cooperate. If you oppose it, Li Jingxuan is not happy and doesn't say anything, how to deal with it? Do you want him to be the deputy governor? With his current status, being the deputy chief is too aggrieved. Therefore not to mention.
……
Luoyang in April is the season when peonies compete for beauty, and all the peonies in the East Palace are blooming beautifully.
Everyone in the East Palace is looking forward to it, and the four girls are about to enter the East Palace.
One crown princess, two Liangdi, five Liangyuan, if Li Wei ascends the throne, the future queen and concubines will undoubtedly come from these eight daughters.
The carriage drove in, whether it was Liangdi or Liangyuan, they were the side concubines of the prince, and they could not be treated as concubines, but it was impossible to hold an official wedding. When she arrived at the East Palace, she was canonized and became a side concubine.
The four beautiful girls slowly walked down from the carriage, and Li Wei greeted him and said, "It's not easy, you can finally officially enter the East Palace." ”
Di Hui said: "But the concubine would rather not enter the East Palace." ”
After that, the four girls all looked sad.
Li Wei walked up to them again, hugged Yang Min first, and said, "You and I have finally become Lian Li after all kinds of hardships, aren't you happy?" ”
Yang Min didn't answer, but his eyes flashed with a mist of mist.
Li Wei put it down, hugged Xu Li again, and said: "Including Lonely, everyone thinks that the candidate who disagrees with the father and queen mother to enter the East Palace is you, but with sincerity, the gold and stone are open, and you also enter the East Palace, aren't you happy?" ”
Xu Li was smiling when she heard this, but tears flashed in her eyes, and she had mixed feelings, not knowing whether to cry or laugh.
Li Wei hugged Di Hui Di Hao again and said: "Everyone in the world looks at people as gatekeepers, won't the common people produce heroes and heroes, virtuous ladies and virtuous women?" So you guys make a show for them in the future, okay? ”
The second girl nodded.
"Also, in the dormitory in the future, you will wear that kind of clothes."
“……”
Xu Li asked strangely, "Hui, okay, what clothes?" ”
“……”
Li Wei didn't let Xu Li ask, and said, "Come, come, come." ”
Brought them to the bookshelf, pointed to a row of bookshelves and said, "This row is full of history books, and Lone often reads them. In the end, some conclusions were drawn, the emperor's family, the family affection is particularly thin, but the loneliness is not happy. Because of their noble status, there are many young girls in the harem, so when the concubines are old and decrepit, they often fall out of favor. I only hear the newcomer laughing, and where I hear the old man crying, I don't like it. If you accept it, you want to share your difficulties, share blessings, grow old together, and never leave. ”
"Your Highness......" The girls choked up with emotion.
"You hold hands," Li Wei asked the eight girls to hold their hands together, and said, "But Lone's request is that you respect and love each other, can you do it?" ”
The eight women all nodded. Of course, this is what Li Wei takes for granted, and now that Li Wei's status is undecided, and he wants to go to Qinghai, there will be no dispute between them. Once succeeded to the throne, it is inevitable to compete for favor, but it is just a strong fight, and a weak fight. Thinking of this verse, he said, "When Gu comes back, let someone make a big bed, and you and Gu will sleep on the same bed." ”
“……”
But this joke finally diluted some of the worries.
At this time, the outside announced: "The queen of heaven has arrived." ”
Wu Zetian came and immediately went out. Wu Zetian took Li Wei's hand and said, "Hong'er, why did you promise your father?" ”
"Queen Mother, if your son doesn't agree, will it be okay?"
Wu Zetian fell silent. After a while, he said: "But you have to be careful, it doesn't matter if you win or lose, we have a lot of people in the Tang Dynasty, and if you don't fight for this time, you must not act impulsively." ”
When his mother also said this kind of thing, Li Wei was very surprised and said, "Erchen has his own measure. The sons did not dare to say the victory or defeat, and their ability was not as good as that of Li Xianggong, and they could march and fight, but the sons were not as good as many generals, but they were still better than Li Xianggong. ”
Father is confused, on the dictatorship of the family, this contradiction is not used, but must be fought hard. It's okay to fight hard, let Li Jingxuan lead the army!
"That's good, but be careful."
"Thank you, Queen Mother."
……
Finally set off, but there is no hurry, but I am worried that Li Jingxuan will arrive in Qinghai and make random arrangements. It is also necessary to immediately rush to Chang'an, gather a group of troops, and review the supplies. Therefore, as soon as the four women entered the East Palace in front, Li Wei left immediately.
The prince wants to go to the army again, and all the alleys in Luoyang are empty, and they rush to both sides of Tianmen Street to send each other.
Li Wei led thousands of soldiers, and among the ordinary people who could not see the end of the black pressure, he felt as small as a floating leaf.
A prince, who was actually just a leaf, suddenly rode on his horse and laughed when he thought of this section.
The civil and military officials who sent each other laughed inexplicably. Li Wei arched his hand and said: "Thousands of miles away, there will be a farewell." Lonely also. ”
Saying that, he stepped over the famous horse of the Great Garden presented by Bai Suji, the king of Qiuzi last year, and left Luoyang City quickly with all the soldiers.
