According to the emperor's original intention, he was reluctant to let Lai Xing'er leave his side, but firstly, because the various feudal towns headed by Fu Yi refused to send troops to the west, the emperor could only pin his hope of resisting the invasion of Tubo on a soldier and horse of Shenhe, and secondly, Yu Cheng'en's words of praising Lai Xing'er also really made the emperor moved, as far as the current situation is concerned, Li Qi, the king of Mu who has no experience in battle, can not rest assured that the emperor can not be relieved, only the combination of Jing Yuncong and Lai Xing'er, the old and the young, has achieved world-renowned results in several major battles against the enemy Tubo, if you want to avoid abandoning Jingben again, you can only make Lai Xing'er go to Western Xinjiang again.

Xing'er took the initiative to ask for help, and his ambition was commendable. Pei Baiyao, immediately drafted an edict, appointed Lai Xing'er as the deputy marshal of the two marching armies of Hexi and Longyou, temporarily controlled by Jingyuncong, and issued 20,000 horses to Shenhe Yidu, and allowed him to recruit soldiers into the army on his own to resist Tibet. In addition, the son of Xing'er was given the title of barony in Yiyang County, in order to reward his father's merits. ”

The emperor said, stood up, walked to Lai Xing'er, took up one of Xing'er's hands, held it in his hand, and said very earnestly: "Jinping and the child, you can leave it to me to take care of it, and when you return from the Western Xinjiang this time, I will personally preside over it and rehabilitate Zhaoxue for your clan." ”

Lai Xing'er tried hard to suppress the excitement in his heart, knelt on the ground, and replied: "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, Lai Xing'er will not disappoint Your Majesty, but with Lai Xing'er's breath, there will be no return." ”

Yu Chengen saw that Lai Xing'er followed his own way, and was once again sent to the west by the emperor to act as the vanguard of the large-scale invasion of Tubo, and couldn't help but be overjoyed, and hurriedly came to the front and added: "Today, the minister sent an order to Xiang Zhifei, and ordered him to personally lead his troops and horses to set off into Beijing immediately to ensure that Chang'an is safe." ”

The emperor's eyes flashed, and then he became dim, nodded with a little helplessness, and only said to Lai Xing'er Yin: "Xing'er is so self-conscious, I am looking forward to your good news day and night in this Daming Palace." ”

Lai Xing'er stood up, bowed deeply to the emperor, and without saying a word, turned around and walked out of the hall.

Li Qi, the king of Mu, was snubbed by the emperor, and was disheartened, and when he twisted his neck and raised his eyes, he suddenly saw a sinister smile on the corner of Yu Chengen's mouth, and his heart tightened, as if he had noticed something, and then he actively expressed his attitude to the emperor: "Please rest assured that my father and emperor will personally sit in the marshal's mansion from today to raise food for the officials and military governors of Western Xinjiang for the needs of wartime." ”

"That's very good." The emperor's gaze at Li Qi finally softened.

Lai Xing'er yesterday in the grandmother Qingcheng got the task of going to Jingzhou to assassinate Nasimo and seize the Split Cloud Sword, and today he received the mission of leading the army to resist the invasion of Tubo from the emperor, so he didn't want to delay a moment in Chang'an, and walked out of the Yanying Palace, that is, he strode towards the direction of the palace gate.

Before Lai Xing'er had walked far, he heard Wei Chang's anxious voice behind him, and shouted at him, "Marquis Fuyuan, please stay for the time being." ”

Lai Xing'er stopped when he heard the sound, turned his head to look, and saw Wei Chang chasing after him from behind, sweating profusely.

"Master Wei, I don't know if you have any advice?" Lai Xing'er no longer had the same respect for Wei Chang as before, and asked coldly.

"Marquis Fuyuan, before leaving, Wei Mou had a word to say, but I wonder if Marquis Fuyuan can hear it?" Wei Chang wiped the sweat from his face and said.

Lai Xing'er looked anxiously in the direction of the palace gate and was silent.

"This time the second Marquis of Fuyuan went to the Western Xinjiang, it was not out of the original intention of the saint." Wei Chang saw that Xing'er was quite impatient with him, and hesitated slightly, but he still opened his mouth to persuade, "However, the matter has come to this point, and it is inconvenient for Wei to say anything more, only one sentence to advise Hou Ye, no matter whether this trip to the West is successful or defeated, Fuyuan Hou must cherish himself and return with his whole body, only in this way can it be enough to make the saint feel at ease." ”

Lai Xing'er listened to Wei Chang's words very implicitly, thinking of Yu Cheng'en's efforts to persuade the emperor to order him to go to the western frontier again when the court was in the court, and he couldn't help but be vigilant, but he thought that he was not the same person as Wei Chang, and it was difficult to inquire with him in detail, so he only lightly hugged Wei Chang and said: "Lord Wei's kindness, Lai Xing'er understands it." The edict is in place, please forgive Xing'er for the inconvenience of staying for a long time, so I will leave. After that, he didn't wait for Wei Chang to say anything, turned around and walked away.

Lai Xing'er received the edict of leading the army to resist the invasion of Tubo, thinking that this sneak into Jingzhou to assassinate Nasimo is not only to compete with the so-called fellow uncle, but also to take advantage of the fact that the main force of Tubo has not yet been fully assembled, to catch them off guard, kill their majesty, and feel full of strength from top to bottom.

He didn't have time to say goodbye to Jinping, Jing Zhao and others, turned over his horse outside the palace gate, rode his horse and whipped, and ran straight in the direction of Anyuan Gate.

When Laixing'er had just left Anyuan Gate, he suddenly felt a gust of wind overhead, and before he could react, he felt that his right shoulder sank down, as if a big bird had landed on his shoulder.

"The Book of the Harrier."

Lai Xing'er was startled, and hurriedly untied a sealed wax pill from the harrier eagle's feet that fell on his shoulder, unsealed the seal, and took a two-finger-wide note wrapped in his hand to take a look. I saw a line of small words written on the note: The Tubo army has entered the western Xinjiang, and all of them have been ordered to move to the Lingtai to wait for their orders and return quickly.

Lai Xing'er rode on the back of the little white dragon's horse, let out a long breath, and said secretly in his heart: "The Tubo people are coming so fast." It had only been a few days since the news was received in Chang'an City, and they had already made a comeback. ”

He secretly estimated his itinerary and decided to rush to Jingzhou alone according to the original plan, even if he couldn't assassinate Nasimo in one fell swoop, he could also test the other party's virtual and real movements first.

Lai Xing'er made up his mind, turned his horse's head and returned to Anyuanmen, borrowed pen, ink, paper and inkstone from the sergeant guarding the city, hurriedly wrote his whereabouts on a small note, carefully sealed it with wax pills, tied it back to the talons of the harrier eagle, and beckoned to the harrier eagle in the direction of the west. The harrier eagle has been domesticated by the stone in the river to be very human, fluttering its wings and flying into the sky, and disappeared into the blue sky and white clouds in an instant.

As soon as he left the city gate, he unexpectedly got the news of the comeback of the Tubo army, which made Lai Xing'er readjust the purpose of his trip to Jingzhou: to assassinate Nasimo and seize the Cloud Splitting Sword in his hand, so as to defeat the poisonous snake lurking in the deep palace, and to focus on spying on the enemy's military movements. He wanted to rush to the beginning of the Tibetan army's march and seize the time to find out the details of the other party, so that he could lead the army to give him a head-on attack.
