The palace was opened in nine days, and all the nations were crowned with crowns.

Today's Datang has not yet reached its most glorious era, but under the rule of Li Zhi, there has been the famous "rule of Yonghui".

The majestic and majestic Hanyuan Hall has shown the atmosphere of the Tang Dynasty to the fullest!

Three days passed in a flash, Li Hong wore a heavy court dress, and came to the front hall of Daming Palace early, Hanyuan Palace.

This is also the most solemn and magnificent place in the Tang Empire, where the worship of the sky, the sealing of the queen, and even the usual court meetings are carried out here.

The sun was rising, and with Wu Liangfu's slightly sharp voice, it officially opened the prelude to this thrilling court.

In the Hanyuan Palace, Li Zhi and Empress Wu sat on the throne.

His Royal Highness's ministers are divided into two shifts, the ministers are headed by Xu Jingzong, the servant of the door, and the military general is headed by the British Duke Li Ji, which is clearly distinguished! Most of them are purple-robed goldfish bags, with serious faces and a majestic atmosphere.

Li Hong was dressed in court clothes and stood in front of the ministers.

"Ministers participate in Your Majesty, participate in Niangniang!"

"All the ministers are flat!"

Li Zhi's face did not change in the slightest, and he said loudly with a gentle smile.

"Li Yifu!"

"The minister is here!"

Li Zhi spoke in a deep voice, and Li Yifu, who was dressed in a purple robe, stepped out sideways and answered.

"A few days ago, you played the impeachment of Pei Xingjian, the general of Qianniuwei, and today Pei Aiqing has returned to Chang'an, so I will send this matter to the court, confront the court, and distinguish the matter clearly!"

"Yes, the old minister obeys! Dare to ask His Highness to summon General Pei into the palace! ”

Li Yifu bowed slightly and said.

"Summoning Pei Xingjian!"

Although Li Zhi still retains the official position of General Pei Xingjian Qianniuwei, in principle, Pei Xingjian is now guilty of guilt, and it is the time to be isolated and examined in the future generations.

Even if he was not imprisoned, he was not allowed to leave the house without a will, which is why Li Hong and Li Ji went directly to Pei's mansion to discuss countermeasures.

However, because today's court meeting is mainly to discuss the matter of the western expeditionary army, Pei Xingjian has already made a decree outside the palace.

Hearing the summons at this moment, Pei Xingjian strode into the Hanyuan Palace.

Li Hong carefully looked at the once high-spirited general, and found that in just a few days, he had already shown his old state, but he could vaguely see his general style between the dragon and the tiger.

Sighed secretly, it seems that even with everything that was discussed before, Pei Xingjian is still not very comfortable these days!

"The criminal minister Pei Xingjian participates in Your Majesty and participates in Niangniang!"

Pei Xingjian's voice is peaceful, faintly with the voice of gold and stone, generous and powerful!

"Aiqing is flat, the name of the criminal is not necessary for the time being, there are some things that need to be confronted clearly when Aiqing is summoned to the palace today, Wu Liangfu ......"

Li Zhi's attitude towards Pei Xingjian was quite gentle, with a hint of a smile on his face.

At the end of the words, Li Zhi's voice became serious, and he glanced at Wu Liangfu, who immediately understood, took out a copy of the recital from the imperial case, and read it aloud.

The content of the fold is not long, it is the fold handed over by Li Yifu.

In fact, the bigwigs present knew the content of this letter, but it was just for some ministers who were not well-informed enough.

"Dare to ask General Pei, how was the battle situation of our army during the western expedition to the Turks?"

After Wu Liangfu finished reading, Li Yifu asked questions first.

"At the beginning, the war situation was not optimistic, Ashdwin Fu's rebellion against the Tang Dynasty was not a temporary intention, in fact, it was premeditated, and by the time the old man led the army to arrive, all the twenty-four states under the rule of the Turkic Shan Yu had been rebelled, and the situation was precarious!"

Pei Xingjian pondered for a moment and spoke.

"At that time, General Du Hu Xiao Siye repeatedly led the army to conquer, but they were all defeated! The enemy army is already on par with ours! ”

"So, it was the Turks who had the upper hand at that time?"

Li Yifu asked suspiciously.

Unexpectedly, Pei Xingjian shook his head and continued.

"Although the enemy's military strength is comparable to ours, my Datang elite is naturally unstoppable, not to mention that although those Turks claim to have hundreds of thousands of people, in fact, many of them are ordinary people, temporarily used as soldiers, and their combat power is difficult to compare with my Datang!"

"That means our army has the upper hand?"

Li Yifu didn't continue to entangle, he looked like he was kind and asked, following Pei Xingjian's words.

Although Pei Xingjian felt that Li Yifu's move must have a deep meaning, he hesitated for a moment and continued to speak.

"Yes, after our army arrived, it quickly took control of the battlefield, and the Turkic army and our army fought several fierce battles in Montenegro, with countless casualties on both sides, but also the Turks were defeated one after another! The rest fled to Wolf Mountain in a hurry! ”

Pei Xingjian's tone was a little heavy, obviously those battles were not as easy as he said, just the four words of countless casualties made people's chests feel stuffy.

Li Hong listened silently to Pei Xingjian's calm narration on the side, and his heart became heavier and heavier, for the ministers of the court, it might just be a cold number.

But for the soldiers like Pei Xingjian who rushed out of the battlefield, those dead people are their comrades-in-arms, their robes, and their lives.

At this moment, Li Hong seems to be able to understand why Pei Xingjian must be obsessed with the reward of the army, not because he is greedy for glory and wealth, but because these men who guarded the frontier for the Tang Dynasty and survived from the sea of corpses and blood should have the glory and rewards they deserve!

So no matter who dares to make up their minds on this point, Pei Xingjian can't tolerate it!

The atmosphere in the hall became a little dull, thinking that it was because Pei Xingjian's topic was too heavy.

"And then? Since our army has won a great victory, has the army taken advantage of the victory to pursue? ”

Li Yifu saw that there was a strange atmosphere in the main hall, frowned slightly, and continued to ask.

"Nope."

Pei Xingjian shook his head and replied.

"At that time, although the defeat of the Turks was decided, but our army also suffered heavy casualties, and at the same time, the old man received a military report, which should have been delivered to the army the day before, but for some reason it did not arrive as scheduled, and the old man only had three days of grain and grass left in his hands, so he naturally did not dare to advance, and in desperation, the old man had to order Mingjin to withdraw his troops and return to the camp to recuperate for three days!"

"So, did General Pei give up the opportunity to completely exterminate the Turkic rebellion?"

A hint of cunning flashed in Li Yifu's eyes, and he asked contemptuously, his tone was full of ill intentions, which clearly alluded to Pei Xingjian's deliberate release of the Turks.

"Li Zhongshu, what are you talking about!"

Pei Xingjian has also stayed in the DPRK for so many years, how can he be so easily fooled.

When he flicked his sleeve robe, he said a little angrily.

"The art of war is cloudy: the poor don't chase! Although the Turks were defeated and fled, they were not completely without combat power, not to mention that Wolf Mountain is the base camp of the Turks, its terrain is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and our army is short of food and grass, how can we lightly advance the enemy! ”

"Hmph, to put it bluntly, it's just that you're afraid that you won't have so much credit after breaking through it in one fell swoop!"

Pei Yan, the head of the household, came out of his position and said sarcastically.

"Pei Yan!"
