Some things can not be explained by just talking, if you say too much, it will be even more unclear, so whenever this time, it is a wise choice not to say it, yes, although her heart is full of grievances, Princess Mingyue just stood there quietly, pursed her lips, and silently looked at Li Zhen with a complicated face, like a jade statue without moving.

"Tell me, what's going on?" Seeing Princess Mingyue's sad look, Li Zhen felt a pain in her heart, and she was silent for a long time, she couldn't bear to ask, but when she got to the bottom, she couldn't help but ask.

Princess Mingyue shook her head gently, biting her bright red lips, before the words came out, tears couldn't help but flow down first, she was choked and speechless for a while, and after sobbing for a long time, she said faintly: "Your Highness, all this is Yue'er's fault, you want to be punished, Yue'er admits it, I just ask you not to be angry." ”

Alas, this stupid girl, can such a big crime be brought on her own family? Li Zhen knows the reason for the matter, but in order not to show flaws, some things have to be done even if they go against their wishes, and this is one of the prices that must be paid as a child of the heavenly family, so Li Zhen couldn't bear it in his heart, but he still hardened his heart: "This king only asks, did you know about this matter in advance?" ”

Princess Mingyue, as the princess of Qiuzi Country and Li Zhen's wife, is caught in the middle of the conflict between countries, which is already very difficult, after all, it is not Princess Mingyue's wish to hurt anything, at this time, seeing Li Zhenwu working hard and forcing each other, her heart was immediately aggrieved to the extreme, and tears flowed non-stop, but since Li Zhen asked, she still couldn't help answering, she could only grit her teeth and say calmly: "The concubine's body is also known after the fact." ”

Li Zhenshi couldn't bear to see Princess Mingyue crying, got up, strode to Princess Mingyue's side, stretched out his hand and took Princess Mingyue into his arms, patted Princess Mingyue's emaciated back, and said pityingly: "This king knows that this matter has nothing to do with Xiao Yue'er, but, alas, this king is also difficult." ”

Listening to Li Zhen's gentle words, all the grievances in Princess Mingyue's heart came up, and she immediately cried loudly, crying and saying: "Your Highness's difficulties, the concubine body can understand, the concubine body has never paid attention to the things in the front yard since the last time His Royal Highness said it, that Bai Ye was originally a housekeeper sent by his father, and the concubine saw that he was honest and obedient, so he stayed by his side to listen to the call, I really don't know the details, there is such a big thing, the concubine knows that she is responsible, and she really doesn't dare to expect forgiveness from His Royal Highness, concubine, concubine body......" Princess Mingyue said here, Sad, I couldn't talk anymore, I just kept crying.

"Well, don't cry, this king knows Yue'er's character, and she is definitely not a betrayer of her husband, this king knows this in his heart." Li Zhen hugged the jade man in her arms tightly, comforting and comforting her gently.

Maybe she was tired of crying, or maybe Li Zhen's comfort played a role, Princess Mingyue's crying gradually subsided, and at the end, she just quietly stuck to Li Zhen's thick chest, her eyes were closed, but her long eyelashes were shaking non-stop, like a docile kitten, which made people feel pity at first sight, and at this time, the moonlight that had sneaked into the house at some point added a lot of romantic atmosphere to the scene in front of her.

"His Royal Highness is a person who plans great things, and the concubine does not dare to mistake His Highness's major affairs with her own selfishness, but she ......" After a long time, Princess Mingyue let out a sigh of relief, raised her head, looked directly at Li Zhen's eyes, and said quietly: "I just don't know where His Highness will be the father of the concubine?" ”

This topic is extremely sensitive, not only related to the overall strategy of the next step of the Tang Army in Anxi, but also involves the father-daughter relationship between Princess Mingyue and King Qiuzi, but it is an unavoidable problem, therefore, Li Zhen only hesitated for a while, and then replied: "In this way, this king will not be too embarrassed by Er's father, not only Er's father, but also Er's family, this king will also protect it, well, although Chang'an City is prosperous, but it is not a big deal to have another duke's palace, this king can still do it." ”

With the wisdom of Princess Mingyue, she had already guessed Li Zhen's determination to take the turtle, but at this time, she heard Li Zhen admit it herself, but she couldn't help but feel a little sad, but more of it was still gratifying, after all, it was a good place to be able to save the lives of her father and brother for the people of the country, which was naturally because Li Zhen saw the love of the husband and wife, so she would arrange it like this, otherwise, if you want to destroy a country, the most thorough way is nothing more than to cut down the royal family and eradicate it once and for all. At least the righteous name of the people of the country who caused rebellion in the name of the old royal family has been removed. From this, Princess Mingyue could sense Li Zhen's strong affection, and her mood suddenly improved a lot, smiled softly, and put her head on Li Zhen's chest again......

May, although it is early summer, but the climate in the desert is not comparable to other places, the temperature is frighteningly high, even if you hide in the room covered with ice basins and sit still, you can sweat all over your body, it is extremely difficult, especially for fat people, the king of Guizi is a big fat man, the most hated thing in his life is such a difficult summer, in the past, every summer, he always lives by soaking in the water to survive, no matter how important the important thing is also on the edge of the bathhouse to deal with, There are very few times when you can't even go to court, let alone run out of the palace to deal with government affairs, of course, there are exceptions - it is nearly noon, it is the hour when there are few pedestrians on the street, but the class braved the scorching sun, and hurried to the east of Qiuzi City in a carriage, and before he could reach the ground, the sweat gushing out of his body had soaked his still neat royal clothes so much that he could wring out water, and the handkerchiefs used to wipe his sweat were changed more than a dozen, but the class didn't seem to care about such hardship. I just kept urging the Emperor to speed up.

"Hurry up, hurry up, what's going on, useless thing!" The class kept wiping the sweat with the white silk, and roared angrily, frightening the original chaotic emperor, for fear of causing death due to the mistake of the major event of the class, and the car was even more awkward, but fortunately, there were few pedestrians on this road, otherwise, there would be an accident.

"Your Majesty, it's here, please get out of the car." Surrounded by a group of cavalry, the galloping carriage hurried down the wide long street for a long time, and finally stopped in front of a large mansion, and the nervous emperor was relieved, and half turned around, bowed and spoke.

The bumps along the way and the torture of the heat, the class was already a little sleepy, at this time I heard the emperor talk about the ground, finally breathed a sigh, and ignored the courtesy of the emperor, and with a roar, he lifted the curtain on the carriage, and the huge body twisted, almost as if it was rolling, and before he could stand firm, the door of the mansion was already open, and the prime minister, Nari, hurriedly walked out of it, and hurried to the front of the class, and did not speak, but shook his head silently.

"Humph, rubbish!" The class glanced at Nari with disdain, flicked his sleeves, raised his feet and walked towards the courtyard of the mansion, went straight through several courtyards, and came to the door of a small courtyard at the back, Bai Ye, who had been waiting outside the courtyard gate, hurriedly rushed forward, kowtowed respectfully and said: "Your Majesty, General Sha is inside, and his injuries have not yet healed." ”

"Hmm." The class replied noncommittally, and didn't care that Bai Ye was still kneeling there, and his chubby body had already walked into the courtyard in a moment, and the small movement immediately alarmed the sand flying camel who was lying on a bed in the hall.

"Your Majesty, ...... you" Sha Feiluo saw that class, and immediately became so excited that he wanted to stand up to greet him, but after all, the stick on his body was extremely serious, and because of the continuous running, the wound was never closed.

"Don't be like this, the general must lie down quickly, the widow is abrupt, and I ask the general to forgive the sin." As soon as the class saw that Sha Feiluo was about to get up, he hurriedly stepped forward, held Sha Feiluo's body, and said softly.

"Your Majesty......" Sha Fei's camel face called out with emotion, but he wanted to speak but stopped, and the look in his eyes was complicated and difficult to understand.

The class nodded, and said with a sad and pitiful face: "The widow knows, the widow knows, alas, the tired general has been wronged, and the widow really doesn't want to go, the general only cares about life and injury, and everything will be taken care of in the future." ”

"Thank you for Your Majesty's magnanimity, Your Majesty's kindness, the last general will never forget, but, alas, the last general has long been disheartened, only thinking about returning to his hometown and living in seclusion, and he really doesn't want to take care of foreign affairs anymore." A look of shame flashed across Sha Feihuo's face, and he muttered in his mouth.

"The general's words are fallacious, the general is an immortal talent, how can he be buried in the dust, in the past, there were many widows who had negative generals, and please don't take the general to heart, today, my Qiuzi country is in danger, and please ask the general for the sake of my Qiuci father and old folks, help the widow, don't let the people be displaced, general, the widow begs you." When he said this, he fell to his knees and pleaded bitterly, in spite of his own king's dignity.

"Your Majesty, you must not do this, you are going to kill the last general, you can't help it, Your Majesty." When Sha Feiluo saw that Ban was kneeling on the ground, he immediately panicked, and he didn't care about the pain on his body, so he jumped up and fell to the ground as well, but he kowtowed vigorously.

"If the general does not accept it, the widow will not rise." The class didn't pay attention to Sha Feiluo's words, and forced himself to kneel there, which made Sha Feiluo lose his temper, and in desperation, he had no choice but to speak: "The last general agrees, Your Majesty, you better get up quickly." ”

"Thank you to the general, the widow has the help of the general, and you can break the strong enemy to protect the people of the society!" As soon as the class heard that Sha Feiluo was relieved, he immediately screamed with ecstasy, stretched out his hand, and helped Sha Feiluo up, but unexpectedly the action was a little bigger, and the wound on Sha Feiluo's body that had not yet healed was broken, and the blood gushed out in an instant, flowing down Sha Feihuo's back, dripping all over the place, and the squad was so shocked that he hurriedly shouted: "Come on, come on, quickly wrap General Sha's wounds, quick!" Several medical officers who had been waiting in the courtyard heard the call of the class, and rushed in in a hurry, helping Sha Feihu onto the Hu bed, and the one who applied the ointment was busy applying the ointment, and the one who tied the bandage was also busy endlessly, and after a long period of tossing, he finally stretched Sha Feiluo into a rice dumpling.

"The widow is reckless, please also ask General Haihan to be one." The class lowered his head and said apologetically with a face full of apologies.

Seeing that class of such a courteous corporal, Sha Feiluo was so moved that he couldn't help himself, regardless of his physical weakness, he turned over, fell to his knees and said: "Your Majesty is so loving, the last general should swear to repay him to death!" ”

"Okay, hahaha......, good, I can get the general, I am really lucky, the general, please get up, please get up!" When the class saw Sha Feiluo say the words of service, he was overjoyed, and hurriedly rushed forward, helped Sha Feiluo up, and said with a smile on his face: "The general is talented, and the widow should be reused, my position as a general has been vacant for a long time, and I ask the general to bend to one or two first, so good?" ”

The position of the general is unusual and comparable, it is the supreme commander of a country's armed forces, and the successive generals of the Qiuzi country are all members of the royal family, and they are the second people in the court below the minister of state, which can be talked about in terms of prestige, especially above the minister of state, if others suddenly get such a high position, they must be pretending to resign, and then gladly accept the order, but Sha Feiluo is not so, not only is he not happy, but he said with a worried face: "Your Majesty loves the minister's heart, but this position is not something that the minister can do, and there are three reasons: First, the military magnates are unified, Only if the arm commands, can become an army, the last general is an outsider, suddenly in a high position, the generals will inevitably disagree, if there is no time to rectify, it will inevitably affect the war, this time the war will start, the end of the general really has no time for this rectification, so it can not be a general, secondly, although the end of the general is confident in the way of war, but only long in cavalry warfare, there is not much experience in defending the city, and the future war is mainly offensive and defensive warfare, and the last general is really intentional and powerless; Third, the last general is still in this body is still not on the horse, and he can't be a director, so he is a general with this sick body, and he is afraid that he will miss His Majesty's major events, so there are these three things, and the last general really does not dare to accept His Majesty's orders! ”

Hearing Sha Feiluo's analysis, the last trace of doubt in the group's heart was completely dispelled, and then he cautiously arched his hand at Sha Feiluo and said: "The general is hardworking, and few people know about it, but, well, I just don't know what the general wants to do?" ”

Sha Feiluo did not directly answer that class's question, but asked rhetorically: "How is Your Majesty's wisdom compared to King Yue?" ”

"Huh?" That class didn't expect Sha Feiluo to ask such a question, so he was stunned for a moment, and then replied cautiously: "It's better to do it." ”

"Well, that's what the Admiral thinks." Sha Feiluo paused for a moment, and then continued: "How is my Qiuzi army compared to the Anxi Tang army? ”

Although the class didn't understand why Sha Feiluo asked such two embarrassing questions in a row, he still said honestly: "It's better to do it." ”

"Good." Sha Feiluo smiled and said: "Your Majesty can be self-aware, and when you can ensure the peace of my side, the general will rest assured." ”

Only then did the class understand the intentions of Sha Feihuo's two problems, and couldn't help but feel a little ashamed, and said with a wry smile: "The previous widow misbelieved slander and made enemies with the Tang Dynasty, which was really a mistake, although it was made up for several times, but unexpectedly, alas, ......"

Sha Feiluo said disapprerovitically: "Otherwise, Your Majesty is mistaken, even if Your Majesty has not offended His Royal Highness King Yue, how can he allow me to sleep peacefully on the side, sooner or later I will always send troops to attack, this is the will of King Yue to level the world, and there is absolutely no possibility of changing, so Your Majesty does not have to take the last move to send troops to heart." ”

Sha Feiluo said that the class naturally knew it for a long time, otherwise the last time it would not have taken advantage of the fierce war between Li Zhen and the Western Turks to stab a knife in the back, but it was a pity to calculate it, but I didn't expect to fall into Li Zhen's calculations in the end, and ended up in a tragic situation of defeat like a mountain. ”

Sha Feihu groaned slightly, and said unhurriedly: "Your Majesty Mingjian, the enemy is strong and I am weak, and I can win without fighting, so I don't fight, and the last general knows, the first place to take the king of Yue will be Khotan, and the reason is nothing more than to cut off the road of Tibet into the Western Regions, there is really nothing to say, however, the road to Khotan is far away, and I Qiuzi is close at hand, therefore, it is not excluded that the king of Yue will make a false way to cut down the enemy, in the name of borrowing the road to take my Qiuci first, and then attack Khotan, therefore, the last general thinks that our army should guard against the move of the king of Yue, Don't give the king of Yue an excuse to send troops blatantly, but at the same time agree to the request of the king of Yue to borrow the road, shrink the strength of the whole country, make every effort to consolidate the royal city, and do not give the king of Yue an opportunity to take advantage of, so that he has to retreat despite the difficulties, at the same time, send additional manpower, convey the military situation to Khotan, Shule two countries, let the two countries work together to assist in defense, and I Qiuzi will not move, wait for the army of the king of Yue and the above two countries to fall into a bitter battle, cut off its grain route, force the Tang army to be defeated due to lack of food, it can be a big thing! ”

"Oh?" The class raised his eyebrows, and after thinking silently for a while, he suddenly asked: "Then why don't you take advantage of the situation to take Gaochang, Jiaohe and other places, so as to cut off the road behind the Tang army, wouldn't it be more direct?" ”

"No." Sha Feiluo shook his head and said: "The king of Yue has always left a back hand, if our army rushes to attack Jiancheng, I am afraid that it will fall into its trap, the defeat is a trivial matter, once it completely angers the Tang Dynasty, which leads to a large attack by the Tang army in the Guannei, the disaster of Gaochang is a lesson from the past, and the cutting off of its grain road is different, the road is the realm of our country, to borrow or not to borrow, how long to borrow is the internal affairs of our country, even if the king of Yue is defeated because of this, the Tang Dynasty with a good face will not necessarily send a large army to come to the expedition, On the contrary, there is a possibility of dealing with Li Zhen, the king of Yue, once Li Zhen is transferred, what forces in the Western Regions can stop the rise of my turtles, this God-given opportunity, Your Majesty must not lose the big because of the small. ”

Sha Feiluo's words were like a basin of cold water that completely woke up the class, and then he understood the key to the matter, and immediately overjoyed, bent down, bowed to Sha Feihuo, and said: "The widow is taught, and being able to get the general's guidance is a sign that my turtle should be happy, and the widow is overjoyed." ”

"Your Majesty's words are serious, and the remnants of the last general are willing to go to the soup for Your Majesty, and I will not give up!" Sha Feiluo took a step back to show that he did not dare to accept the salute of the class, and then fell to his knees, expressing his loyalty in a loud voice.

"Okay, hahaha......, good! You and I, the monarch and the minister, work together, and you can boost the majesty of my turtle! Hahaha......" The class grinned happily and laughed, and the joyful laughter floated around the yard and resounded non-stop......
