Chapter 140: The Interrogation Begins!

Li Zhi naturally saw the displeasure in Empress Wu's heart, but if he had to deal with the matter of the Western Expeditionary Army, he couldn't escape Empress Wu's pass.

"What does the queen mean?"

Empress Wu's eyes flashed with a cold light, and she glanced at the people in the main hall and said slowly.

"Your Majesty, there are still a few unclear things about the concubine who want to ask General Pei, please allow Your Majesty!"

Li Zhi didn't speak, because Empress Wu was not asking for his opinion, this sentence showed that Empress Wu was completely angry, and Pei Xingjian might not be so easy to pass today.

"Pei Aiqing!"

Empress Wu's voice was slightly cold, and she said lightly.

"The minister is here!"

Pei Xingjian took a deep breath and replied in a deep voice.

has been in the court for so many years, Pei Xingjian knows a lot about the methods of the Empress Wu and knows that she is not a person to be messed with, but the current situation has reached this point, and it is already impossible to advance or retreat.

What's more, in Pei Xingjian's heart, he actually agrees with Li Ji's approach, Li Hong has helped the military so much, if he needs it, the military will retreat, not to mention Li Ji, even Pei Xingjian himself will not agree.

"The military array should not interfere in the major affairs of the army, but today since the general has come to the palace to show himself, he should explain the matter clearly, so that the general can be cleared!"

Empress Wu spoke slowly, but her words were beautiful.

It seems to be thinking about Pei Xingjian!

But this sentence made Li Hong's heart sink, because after this sentence was said, Li Hong keenly felt that Li Zhi's eyebrows were slightly raised.

Empress Wu's words seem to be a simple cliché, but in fact, it is another show to Li Zhi that he does not want to meddle in military affairs, but when people bully him, he naturally can't swallow his anger.

And in fact, the Empress Wu has always done this. When it comes to military affairs, Empress Wu's attitude has always been ambiguous, and if it is not a very urgent matter, most of the time it will be temporarily shelved and left to Li Zhi to deal with, and the husband and wife will be for many years. She knows where her husband's bottom line is, so Wu Hou has always done a good job of this.

Even at today's court meeting, Empress Wu barely spoke, and everything was left to Li Zhi to deal with.

Of course, whether Li Yifu's impeachment of Pei Xingjian was at the instigation of Empress Wu is uncertain, and no one can put an end to the small actions in secret.

At least on the surface, Empress Wu's attitude towards the military has always been very detached.

But this time the attack on Li Yifu. Obviously, it also touched the bottom line of the martial arts.

A cold sweat broke out on Li Hong's head, could it be that attacking Li Yifu this time gave Empress Wu a chance to meddle in the affairs of the military in the name of righteousness?

"The duel between the two armies, the battle array, the maiden of the palace doesn't understand, but ......"

Just when Li Hong's heart was entangled, Empress Wu had already slowly spoken.

"However, when the two Aiqing confronted each other, the palace also listened to it. Pei Aiqing, this palace asks you. Was this strategy used since the beginning of the war? ”

Empress Wu still spoke in a light tone, but no one dared to take it lightly.

After thinking for a moment, Pei Xingjian replied.

"Hui Niangniang, yes! Before the ministers arrived on the battlefield, they had already sent scouts to the rear of the Turks to disrupt their internal relations. In order to gain an advantage for our army! ”

Compared with Empress Wu, Pei Xingjian's tone was much more cautious, and he didn't dare to say more, for fear that there would be any loopholes in his words.

These words have already been said when I confronted Li Yifu just now, and it shouldn't be wrong to say them again.

Empress Wu bowed slightly. Keep asking.

"And what exactly are the rumors spread among the enemy army?"

At this moment, a cold sweat suddenly broke out on Pei Xingjian's forehead, because he had vaguely understood what Empress Wu meant.

But the matter has come to this point, and I can only say it honestly.

On the one hand, spreading Ashina Funian among the commoners is an orthodox Great Khan, but he was hijacked by Ashd Fuwen, and on the other hand, he spread rumors among some Turkic nobles that Ashina Funian was plotting to abolish Ashd Fuwen and return to the Tang Dynasty."

Li Hong nodded slightly, this strategy is not very peculiar, but it is effective.

"In addition, the relationship between Ashina Funian and Ashed Fu Wen was quite tense, after the rumors spread, the enemy's army was in turmoil, and indeed our army won several big victories, after the defeat of Montenegro, Ashd Fu Wen finally made up his mind to completely abolish Ashina Fu Nian's sweat position, and it is precisely because of this that Ashina Fu Nian ignored the danger and came to the Chinese army's big tent late at night to negotiate peace with his ministers."

Pei Xingjian's tone was calm, but in fact, he had already sweated in his heart.

Because he knew that Empress Wu was now ready to go, maybe saying the wrong sentence would make him fall into the abyss, so just a few simple words, Pei Xingjian's cold sweat soaked his back, which showed how nervous he was!

Li Hong also frowned slightly, although Pei Xingjian did something slightly inappropriate, but after all, he is the commander of the army, and this is the case that the general will not be said to be in the order of the monarch outside, the battlefield is changing rapidly, no matter what decision the commander makes, it is beyond reproach.

This is the power given by the emperor before the commander sets out on the expedition, so no matter what kind of strategy Pei Xingjian decides to use when dealing with the Turks, it can only be regarded as arbitrary, even if it is wrong, it is very limited, after all, Pei Xingjian is a big victory, of course, if it is a big defeat, I am afraid that he will be held responsible!

So Li Hong didn't think that Empress Wu would make a fuss on this point, but Empress Wu said that these words would definitely not be untargeted, and he must have ignored something......

Where is it?

Li Hong carefully went through what had happened in his mind, and cold sweat was already oozing faintly on his forehead.

"Well, in that case, Pei Aiqing planned to use that counter-trick from the beginning!"

This time, Empress Wu used an affirmative tone, which made Li Hong a little uneasy.

"In this way, Ashina's situation will inevitably be even more sad, even if he doesn't come to Pei Aiqing, I'm afraid Pei Aiqing will go to him, right?"

Empress Wu's tone was slightly cold, and the corners of her mouth curled into a faint smile, vaguely sharp.

Pei Xingjian was shocked, he didn't expect this queen's eyes to be so sharp!

At the beginning, he had thought of this result when he used this strategy, but the contradictions within the Turks were not sharp at that time, so Pei Xingjian didn't have much hope, he just thought about being able to break the other party's military heart, but he didn't expect that the relationship between Ashina Funian and Ashde Fu Wen had deteriorated to such a point, so Pei Xingjian thought about it.

Although Li Yifu also mentioned this just now, he was casually accusing and did not hold on to this point, and Empress Wu is obviously not, it seems that this time it is a little tricky.

Pei Xingjian sighed secretly in his heart, but his mouth was neat.

"Niangniang's words are wrong, the military situation was like fire at that time, and the minister should seize every fighter to reduce casualties for my Datang, and you must know that every advantage on the battlefield may lay the victory or defeat of a big war! Therefore, the minister did not dare to take it lightly! ”

While speaking, Pei Xingjian quietly looked at Empress Wu's face.

But I didn't see any fluctuations on Empress Wu's face, and I couldn't help but think in my heart, and I was a little more cautious when I spoke.

But the justification is reasonable!
