Liu Yi, who was a little confused, thought about it for a while, and also understood the meaning of his uncle and eldest brother.

The leader of the army will be defeated, and the defeat is so miserable, no matter what the situation, it is to be condemned, and the people in the palace will be implicated, so it is necessary to ask the emperor for the first time, it is necessary, it is possible that the emperor will think that the people in the palace have a good attitude of admitting their guilt, and will give light reproaches as appropriate, and his brothers and other people in the palace will be in a better situation as the family members of the generals of the defeated army.

Unless it is for other reasons, such as Li Jingxuan's fear of war, failure to send troops to support, etc., because of the dereliction of duty of other generals that led to the fiasco of the front army, then the father's defeat will not be condemned by the emperor, and the people in the palace will not be punished, and they may also be rewarded and condoled by the emperor, and the deceased will also be enshrined.

Now the specific situation ahead is not known, the only source of news is the military report sent from the front, the people in the house only know about Liu Xianli's defeat and capture, no one knows how the court will condemn the crime, entering the palace to ask for guilt may be a good means, if the emperor Li Zhi or the empress Wu Zetian can meet them, then when facing the saint, in addition to confessing, you can also propose to go to Qinghai to redeem Liu Xianli and return to the court to confess, and ask the emperor to issue an order to find out the cause of the matter.

If you want to go to Qinghai to redeem Liu Xianli, you must also get the consent of the imperial court, otherwise the imperial court may think that Liu's family went to Qinghai to abscond in fear of crime, or conspired with Liu Xianli to commit treason and join the enemy.

There is another advantage of getting the permission of the imperial court, that is, you can get the support of the border army in Qinghai, otherwise when you get to the front line of the confrontation between the two armies, you will encounter an accident.

At this moment, Liu Yi's heart was a little chaotic, these things were not something he could grasp, Liu Yi once again had the feeling of powerlessness in the face of reality, and he was ashamed to have such a feeling.

Liu Yi never thought that he had just been reborn into this world not long ago, and he had a lot of ideas to realize, but he didn't expect that his father, who was in a high position in the court, would be defeated and captured, and the family might suffer because of this. Liu Yi is not even sure how things will develop after this, Liu Yi only hopes that his father can have a male blood surname, and it is good not to submit to the Tubo people, otherwise there is really no room for recovery...

Furthermore, my father should not be killed by the Tibetans.

The time was close to noon, and in the Xuanzheng Hall of Daming Palace, the court meeting was still being held, but at this time, outside the Danfeng Gate, the main gate of Daming Palace, there was a strange scene.

Several people tied with ropes, after riding horses and running outside the Danfeng Gate, dismounted outside the cordon of the guards, knelt down, and knelt down next to the middle-aged man in the front, and presented a fold on his head.

It was just reported that Liu Yanjing, the younger brother of Liu Xianli, the younger brother of Liu Xianli, who was defeated and died in Qinghai, and Liu Xianli, the deputy general of the Taohe Road March, and Liu Xianli's three sons, bound themselves to the palace gate to ask for guilt.

Liu Yanjing's excerpt, in addition to pleading guilty to Liu Xianli's defeat and capture, also begged the emperor to agree to them to go to Qinghai, redeem Liu Xianli, and let the court punish the crime.

Not long after Liu Yi and his entourage knelt down outside the palace gate, a person dressed as a palace official hurriedly ran to the kneeling people, accepted the plea, and left quickly without saying anything.

Just as Emperor Li Zhi was about to announce the decision to punish Liu Xianli, who had been hesitating, Pei Xingjian, a servant of the ministry, stood up, "Your Majesty, the minister has objections!" ”

"Oh?!" Seeing that he had made a lot of military exploits over the years and recommended people properly, Pei Xingjian, who was highly valued, stood up to express his dissent, Li Zhi was slightly stunned, "Pei Aiqing has objections, just play!" ”

"Your Majesty, the disposition of the defeated generals cannot be determined and held accountable, but the situation must be ascertained before making a conclusion!" Pei Xingjian stood in front of the hall and said loudly, "In the second year of Yifeng, Linhe Town, Tubo Koufuzhou, captured Du Xiaosheng, coerced Du Xiaosheng to persuade the governor of Songzhou to surrender Wu Julone, Du Xiaosheng was stubborn, after the Tubo people put it back, Du Xiaosheng regrouped and refused to defend Linhe Town, Tubo could not enter for a while, His Majesty was not Jia Qiyong at that time, and promoted him to a guerrilla general, and now Liu Shangshu faced the superior Tubo troops, and did not surrender until he was seriously injured, so it was also a loyal and brave move, if Liu Shangshu refused to obey the Tubo people after being captured, That may not be the same as Du Xiaosheng..."

"Your Majesty, Pei Shilang's words are misleading," Huangmen Shilang and Tongzhongshu Menxia Sanpin Laiji stood up immediately before Pei Xingcong finished speaking, interrupting Pei Xingjian's words, "Du Xiaosheng is just a six-grade lieutenant, and the progress of the battle situation is irrelevant, and Liu Shangshu is the deputy chief of the Taohe River march and the former army commander, and the Taohe Road marching Sima has a completely different status and influence, in order to urge the leading generals to fight bravely in the front and avoid repeating the defeat of Dafeichuan and Taohe, Liu Shenli must be given a heavy responsibility to set an example!" ”

Then Zuo Shuzi and Zhang Da'an, the third rank of Tongzhongshu, also stood up, "Your Majesty, the minister seconded the proposal, we can no longer tolerate the defeated generals, and the rewards and punishments must be clear!" ”

"Your Majesty, the minister also seconded the proposal!" The prince's left concubine and the servant Hao Chujun also agreed.

Pei Xingjian still wanted to stand up and say something, but after thinking about it for a while, he hesitated again.

Li Zhi listened to what a few people said, and was also a little hesitant, and was about to ask Wu Zetian behind the curtain how to decide, when a palace eunuch ran in, whispered a few words in Wu Zetian's ear, and presented a fold.

Wu Zetian opened the fold and looked at it, and then greeted Li Zhi softly, "Your Majesty, Liu Xianli's younger brother and his third son are outside the palace gate to ask for guilt, and ask to go to Qinghai to redeem Liu Xianli..."

Li Zhi took the fold, looked at it, and his brows stretched slightly, "Ladies and gentlemen, Liu Xianli's younger brother will be a young craftsman Liu Yanjing, and Liu Xianli's three sons pleaded guilty outside the palace gate, begging me to allow them to go to Qinghai to redeem Liu Xianli and return to the court to apologize, what do you say?" ”

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks it should be allowed!" Hearing such news, Pei Xingjian was the first to stand up, "The minister thinks that Liu Xianli's family behaves like this, which is the embodiment of loyalty, if Liu Xianli can be redeemed and punished again, it can serve as a warning and find out the specific situation of the war!"

"Your Majesty, the minister seconded the proposal!" Shangshu's left servant shot Liu Renliang, and Shangshu's right servant shot Dai Zhide also expressed their approval, seeing that the two Shangshu servants said so, and the others did not stand up against each other after looking at each other.

"Since Liu Xianli's family invited themselves to Qinghai, and Zhu Aiqing also suggested, then I also agreed, that is, I will order his family to go to Qinghai and ransom Liu Xianli!" After inquiring about Wu Zetian's opinion, Li Zhi also made a decision, "But Liu Xianli and Wang Xiaojie have been dismissed, and their families also need to stay in the mansion, and they will be dealt with after the matter is clear..."
