Although what is said is right or wrong, it will not be punished, but the generals are still very cautious, after all, no one wants to talk nonsense in a daze, let others see the jokes, but also leave Li Zhen with the impression of being open-mouthed, therefore, after listening to Lin Chenghe's analysis, the generals did not immediately rush to express their opinions, but all followed Lin Chenghe's line of thought and thought.

"Your Highness, the last general thinks that you should go all the way up the Hotan River." Just when the generals were silent, Dong Qianli, the commander of the rangers, took the lead in standing up and said: "Your Highness Mingjian, there are seven cities in Khotan, except for Hotan, the rest of the cities are lined up along the trade road, if our army takes the Guazhou Road, it must be connected to the five cities to reach the capital of the country, Xicheng, although with the strength of our army, when it can be like a bamboo, but a long battle will damage morale, and the strength of Xicheng is not under Gaochang City, once trapped in the city, I am afraid that there is a risk of unforeseen, on the contrary, take the Hotan Road to Xicheng, only Hotan City is blocked in front of Xicheng, it is easy to break, can quickly arrive at the west city, do not attack it first, encircle the point to send reinforcements, first annihilate the rest of the cities to help the enemy, take advantage of the situation to take other cities, and then gather forces to attack the west city, when it can be decided in a battle. ”

Dong Qianli talked freely, and he said it well, but Chen Wu, the commander of the horse army, did not approve of it, and stood up and said: "Your Highness, the last general thinks that although what Commander Dong said is reasonable, there is a difficulty, you must know that the road to Hotan Road is sparsely populated, and the supplies cannot be raised on the spot, so you have to transfer it from Gaochang, regardless of the manpower and material resources spent. ”

When it comes to this Qiuzi country, the generals are tired in their hearts, without him, this country is close at hand in Anxi, and its heart is unpredictable, no matter what way the Anxi Tang army takes to attack Khotan, it may be attacked by the back of the Qiuci country, according to common sense, such a small country will be destroyed early, Li Zhen, the king of Yue, has just married Princess Mingyue, and none of the generals dared to propose to send troops to exterminate the Qiuzi country, at this time listening to Chen Wu say this, the generals showed a trace of helpless embarrassment on their faces, but they didn't know where to start, they could only look at each other face to face.

"Your Highness, the last general thinks that what the two commanders Chen and Dong said is reasonable, and the only trouble now is actually the Guizi Kingdom, since my army is going to move, why not come to a false way to cut down the enemy, once and for all, wouldn't it be happy!" The generals didn't dare to say it, but You Sifan couldn't hold it back, and the first one stood up and shouted loudly.

"That's true! Your Highness, you give the order, the last general is willing to drive the army forward, not to go down to the turtle, and to swear not to return the army! He Dacai was beaten badly by Qiuziguo last time, and when he mentioned Qiuziguo, he gritted his teeth, stood up regardless of it, and echoed You Sifan's proposal.

"I think it's possible!"

"It's a good plan!"

"That's exactly how it should be!"

The generals don't have a good impression of the turtle country, it's just that Princess Mingyue's face is not good enough to propose the matter of exterminating the turtle, at this time, as long as someone rises, naturally all of them respond in groups, Eagle Four, Eagle Five, Lin Ting, Liu Whirlwind and others have stood up to ask for their lives, each bravely fought for the first, and there was a big gas to take the turtle first and then discuss the situation of going out to Khotan, only Sha Feiluo had an unbearable look on his face, and when he saw the generals speak, a trace of haze passed over his face, and he gritted his teeth fiercely, and stood up and said: "Your Highness, this matter must not be!" ”

"Well, why not, let's talk to this king?" Li Zhen pressed his hand and signaled the generals to be quiet, and then looked at Sha Feihuo and asked with a flat face.

Sha Fei steadied his mind and reported loudly: "Your Highness Mingjian, the previous Qiuzi was unreasonable to invade my realm, if my army attacked at that time and exterminated the Qiuzi country, it was an ordinary thing, and there was no inappropriate reason, however, now His Royal Highness has accepted the sincerity of the Qiuci country, no longer cares about the previous matter, and even tied the knot with Princess Mingyue, this matter has spread all over the desert, if the army is revived, then the division is nameless, I am afraid of criticism, which is not conducive to the reputation of His Highness, but also may damage the benevolence and righteousness of my Tang Dynasty, if it causes panic among the countries of the Western Regions, It is not conducive to the development of my Anxi, so I will think that this matter is absolutely not feasible! ”

As soon as Sha Feiluo's voice fell, the generals didn't have time to refute it, but when they saw Li Zhen angrily slapping the book case, Huo Ran got up, pointed at Sha Feiluo and reprimanded angrily: "Ridiculous! How can the general trend of the country be disturbed by the private feelings of the children, Er Yuan is a native of the country of Qiuzi, is it not the heart of Qiuzi? ”

Li Zhen's words can be described as heart-wrenching words, as soon as these words came out, the generals in the hall were all dumbfounded, and they couldn't dare to come forward for Sha Feihuo's cheeks for a while, even Sha Feiluo's brother Sha Kui, who was the captain of the first battalion of the ranger army, was also silent, but Sha Feiluo did not restrain because of Li Zhen's anger, and said with a resolute face: "Your Highness is angry, the words of the last general are from the heart, not the origin of the last general." ”

"You ......" Li Zhen looked angry when she was hit by Sha Fei's camel, her eyes were full of murderous aura, and she stared at Sha Feiluo fiercely, but quickly calmed down and said: "In this way, this king of the country of Guizi can't be attacked, so according to General Sha's words, what should this king do?" ”

At this time, Sha Feiluo seemed to be a little shocked by Li Zhen's anger, and his face turned pale, but he still insisted on saying: "Your Highness Mingjian, since the country of Qiuci has been tamed, we can take advantage of the road, and the place we pass is nothing more than the border of the country of Qiuci, not the location of the city, so that His Royal Highness can send someone to negotiate with the king of Qiuci, and there is no inappropriate gift, so that you can take the road to Hotan and take Khotan, and there will be no conflict with the country of Qiuci, isn't it the best of both worlds?" ”

After listening to Sha Feiluo's words, Li Zhen sneered again and again, suddenly slapped the book case, and shouted loudly: "Hehe, the best of both worlds, the best of both worlds, do you want to trap the king's grain in the hands of Qiuzi?" What a big dog guts, someone came, dragged the sand flying camel out, and cut it! ”

As soon as Li Zhen's order came out, several pro-soldiers outside the hall immediately rushed in, put Sha Feihu on the ground, tied them up, and dragged them out.

"Your Highness is angry, General Sha is just a suggestion, and the crime will not lead to death."

"Your Highness, General Sha is also a painstaking person, please spare him this time."

"Your Highness, cutting the general before the war is not good for the army."

……

"Humph!" In the face of the pleading of the generals, Li Zhen was still angry, but his face was a little calmer, and he waved his hand and said: "All stand up for this king, hum, this king has never asked about his background, but if he is not in the Tang Dynasty, then he can't complain that this king is not emotional, Sha Feiluo is my general of the Tang Dynasty, but he does not want to serve the court, and he cherishes his homeland, although this king has the virtue of a good life, but he cannot tolerate his chaos, for the sake of the generals, his death crime is forgivable, but the living crime is difficult to escape, and the order will go down, and the sand flying camel will be beaten with fifty military sticks, Get rid of your duties and get out of the army! ”

The generals still needed to be persuaded again, but Li Zhen did not listen, and after giving the order, he brushed his sleeves away, and turned into the back hall with an angry face, leaving only the hall full of overwhelmed generals to be stupid in place, and a good pre-war seminar ended unhappily.

In the west of Jiaohe City, in a small house, the naked/naked/back-back Sha Fei Camel was lying on a Hu bed, and his brother Sha Kui applied gold sore medicine to his wounds, although he never opened his mouth to exhale pain, but his face was terrifying, and the sweat on his head flowed down the distorted and deformed face, and his lips were bitten by his teeth to blood, and the pain was that Sha Kui, who had been on the battlefield for a long time, couldn't stand it, while smearing the wound medicine for Sha Feiluo, he complained dissatisfiedly: "Big brother, you are really, knowing that His Royal Highness will take the turtle, and you still want to speak nonsense, This time, it's okay, not to mention that he has suffered fifty military sticks in vain, and even the official has been lost, alas, he worked hard to get the rank of General Mingyuan before, and now he has nothing, look at what you did, ah! ”

"I'm not wrong, I should take it, but I also have to be famous, how can I act recklessly, ouch, you light!" Sha Feiluo didn't agree with Sha Kui's words, and retorted in a loud voice, not wanting to use too much force, it involved the wound, and immediately bared his teeth in pain and screamed in pain.

"I only know now that it hurts, why can't I say less before, alas......" Sha Kui wiped the last wound with the wound medicine, shook his head with a wry smile, stood up, and just wanted to call a few personal soldiers to help Sha Feiluo into the house, but suddenly heard a knock on the courtyard door, and hurriedly waved his hand to signal his subordinates to open the courtyard door.

"Is General Sha here?" As soon as the door opened, a chubby butler-like man led several servants carrying large boxes through the door, and greeted him with a smile on his face.

"It's you, what are you doing?" Sha Kui's eyes were sharp, and he recognized at a glance that the person who came was Bai Ye, the second housekeeper who was married to Princess Mingyue, and immediately asked angrily.

"Ah, General Sha Er is also here, this is too coincidental, hehe, the princess heard that General Sha was wronged, and sent a villain to come to condole, a little profit is not a respect, and please General Sha smile, come, open the box." Bai Ye didn't care about Sha Kui's bad attitude at all, and waved his hand with a smile to signal his servants to open the big box, revealing the contents inside, which turned out to be all silk and jewelry, looking at the depth of the box, the value of this box of gifts is enough to be as much as ten thousand, Rao is Sha family brother was born in the sand thieves, used to seeing large quantities of goods, and for a while was also shocked by the goods in this box A little bit of a child can't come back to his senses.

"Take it, what do you want to do with these things? A certain brother is a Datang official, so he can't be bought! Sha Kui was originally in charge of external liaison when he was a sand thief, and his brain turned quickly, and he immediately understood that this gift was only afraid that it would not be so easy to receive.

"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, hehe, General Sha Er misunderstood, this is just a little bit of the princess's heart, it's nothing." In the face of Sha Kui's angry rebuke, Bai Ye still bowed down with a smile and explained.

"Hmph, how could Her Royal Highness the princess act like this, dare to act in the name of the princess, come and take down this fool!" Sha Kui didn't believe Bai Ye's words at all, snorted coldly, waved his hand, and ordered his subordinates to step forward and take people.

"Wait!" Sha Feiluo saw several of Sha Kui's personal soldiers rushing up, and hurriedly said: "Second brother, this is a brother's business, it has nothing to do with you, you have been out for a long time, it is better to go back to the camp first, this matter is justified for your brother." ”

"Big brother, you ......, hey!" Sha Kui stomped his feet hatefully, shook his head angrily, waved his hand, and led his soldiers to go out, but when he arrived at the door, he stopped, stared at Sha Feihuo and said: "Big brother, you have been wrong once, don't be wrong again, little brother will go back, big brother take care of himself." ”

Sha Fei couldn't get up, but he couldn't stand Sha Kui's verbosity, and waved his hand and said, "Go quickly, go quickly, you don't need to worry about your brother's affairs." ”

Sha Kui saw that Sha Feiluo did not listen to persuasion, shook his head helplessly, went out of the door, walked around the street for a while, always relieved, turned his head, went straight to the door of the Dadu Protectorate, handed over the sign, asked to meet the king of Yue, waited in the gatehouse for a long time, only then did he get a "please" word, did not dare to slack off, followed the eagle who came to summon six strides into the second gate hall, and saw Li Zhen was leaning over the speed, hurriedly stepped forward, knelt on the ground, and said in a loud voice: "The last general Sha Kui see His Royal Highness." ”

"Oh, it's General Sha here, why, so anxious to see this king, is there something important?" Li Zhen raised her head from the pile of papers, and asked with a slight frown.

"Your Highness, there is something unclear in the end, and I don't know whether to talk about it or not." Sha Kui took a deep breath, his face darkened suddenly, and he said in a hoarse voice.

"Huh?" Li Zhen's brows furrowed into the word "Chuan", and she looked at Sha Kui carefully, and then slowly spoke: "Anyway, if you plead for Brother Er, then there is no need to say more." ”

"How dare the last general question His Royal Highness's disposition, it's just that this matter is about Princess Mingyue, the last general, the last general......" Sha Kui stopped when he said this, and peeked at Li Zhen's face.

"Mingyue? What's going on, say! Li Zhen's face changed, his eyes were sharp like knives and swept towards Sha Kui, so shocked that Sha Kui shuddered suddenly, and hurriedly said: "Your Highness, the last general just came from his brother's temporary residence, and before he came, he happened to meet the second housekeeper Bai Er in the courtyard of Princess Mingyue to visit his brother with a generous gift. ”

"Second Butler Bai? Gift? Li Zhen unconsciously muttered a sentence in her mouth, suddenly got up, slapped the table and said, "What a white second housekeeper, come here!" ”

Li Zhen stopped drinking, and suddenly the guards who were originally on guard at the door rushed in, and the eagle platoon, who had just taken over the position of the captain of the pro-soldiers, came out in a row, bowed down and said, "The subordinates are here!" ”

"Eagle Great, immediately order two hundred men and horses to go with General Sha to catch Bai Ye and Sha Feihu to see them, and in addition, give an order to go down and close the city gate, don't let these two escape, go quickly!" Li Zhen blackened his face and issued an order, although Ying Da didn't understand what was going on, but he immediately said a word loudly, and led the men and horses out of the Dadu Protectorate, led by Sha Kui, and rushed to Sha Feiluo's temporary residence, the action was very fast, but unfortunately it was empty-the courtyard where Sha Feiluo was located had already been empty, and when he arrived at the city gate, he learned that half an hour ago, Bai Ye drove a carriage, saying that he was ordered by Princess Mingyue to go out to purchase goods, and he had gone far away, but after chasing for a long time, he didn't find any trace of the carriage, so he had to go back to the Dadu Protectorate with Sha Kui in despair.

"Your Highness, your subordinates should die, go one step late, fail to catch the important culprit, please punish Your Highness." When Ying Da saw Li Zhen, whose face was sinking like water, he hurriedly knelt on the ground, and said with a face full of shame.

"That's it, let's go, you're tired, go down and rest first, Shakui, stay behind." Although Li Zhen's face was unhappy, she didn't get angry at Yingda and the others, she just bit her lip and confessed, and let Yingda and the others retreat first.

"Your Highness, my brother's defection, and the general's failure to stop it in time is already a great crime, please punish Your Highness." Sha Kui saw that the matter had reached a point of no return, and without waiting for Li Zhen to speak, he bowed his head and confessed his sin.

"I can't complain about this matter, it's the king's own negligence, General Sha, please get up, you can be loyal to your duties, how can this king be guilty, you are you, your brother's affairs can't involve you, you don't need to worry too much, just do your thing, if anyone dares to make a fuss about this matter, you just come to inform this king, you have your own king to make decisions for you!" Li Zhen shook her head and said in a calm tone.

"Your Highness!" Sha Kui thought that his brother had defected, and he himself could not escape implication, even if he did not die, he would have to be dismissed from office, but at this time, hearing that Li Zhen was so open-minded, his heart was moved, and he kowtowed a few times with tears in his eyes, and then respectfully said goodbye.

Betrayal has been endless, and Li Zhen herself has not suffered betrayal by others, but it is all from his subordinates, although he is angry, but not to the extent of being annoyed and angry, and now this betrayal is not only his general, but also involves his own backyard, which has violated Li Zhen's final bottom line, which is unbearable! As soon as Sha Kui was sent away, Li Zhen didn't even wait, and immediately turned around and strode towards the courtyard where Princess Mingyue was, his steps were hurried, his face was full of frost, and all the people in the palace he met along the way were so frightened by Li Zhen's body that they knelt down on the side of the road, and they didn't even dare to gasp.

Previously, the Eagle led his troops to arrest Bai Ye made a lot of noise, and it had already spread in the backyard, Princess Mingyue knew about it, but because the palace had an iron law that the backyard was not allowed to interfere in politics, Princess Mingyue, who had suffered once, did not dare to go to the front yard to explain to Li Zhen, so she could only wait anxiously in her own yard, and when she saw Li Zhen, who was covered with frost, came in, and hurriedly led the people in the courtyard to greet her, and fell to the ground on her knees, but she was not in a hurry to defend herself.

Looking at the maid ring and the old mother who were kneeling on the ground, Li Zhen didn't say anything, but just snorted coldly: "You wait for everyone to retreat, Mingyue, you come with this king." As soon as the words fell, she ignored everyone's reactions, and strode into the bedroom, Princess Mingyue bit her lips, forced herself to hold back the tears in her eyes, got up silently, and slowly walked into the bedroom, but the lonely figure had a kind of indescribable loneliness......
