The news that the Goguryeo army invaded Silla and retreated from Silla was defeated, and Silla had to send envoys to Datang for help spread quickly. This shows that Li Yong's original news was correct, Goguryeo did transfer troops, but it was a transfer of troops to attack Silla, anyway, Li Yong never said that Goguryeo's transfer of troops was to attack the Tang Dynasty, so Li Yong can't be blamed for this, since Li Yong knew the news of Goguryeo's troop transfer, is it wrong to tell the emperor to remind him? There is nothing wrong at all, so, the impeachment of Li Yong by the imperial historians is not established at all, although Goguryeo is to transfer troops to attack Silla, Li Yong's reminder is not meritorious, but it is not considered to have been, Li Yong is not guilty, but it depends on how those imperial historians end, however, the official will not be guilty of his words, even if those imperial historians make a lot of nonsense, the emperor will not be guilty because of this, so they feel a little regretful, however, when they think that Wei Zheng also has a gambling contract with Li Yong, they can't help but gloat, Wei Zheng and Li Yong bet, If he loses, then Wei Zheng will go to Li Yong's mansion to bear the guilt, although Li Yong has become a county prince, but he is still a junior, Wei Zheng is also highly respected in the court, but he wants to go to Li Yong's mansion to make amends, tsk, think about it, I think this play is beautiful and enjoyable, but what excites them the most is that Goguryeo's influence on the Silla army in the morning, now that Silla has come to ask for help, what will the sage do? Allowing Goguryeo to annex Silla? Or do you send troops to intervene? Although the world is looking forward to peace in the world, but as a military general, it is inevitable that they also yearn for war, after all, the military general's merit is taken from the horse, and those civil officials can't help but be a little stunned when they hear the news, Goguryeo actually transferred troops, but to fight Silla, and now Silla has sent envoys to ask for help, then they can't write to impeach Li Yong anymore, but they don't feel that they have done anything wrong, Yushi, it's just a rumor, it's wrong, it's wrong, and they didn't feel that they were wrong, just last year, Who doesn't think that Li Yong's intelligence is wrong? Who would have thought that Gao Jianwu would go crazy and send troops to attack Silla? Who would have thought that Silla would be so unsupportive, and would be defeated and retreated, and had to come to Datang for help? Wei Zheng couldn't help but be stunned when he heard the news, in the past two days, there has been a discussion of the imperial history to continue to impeach Li Yong, he actually did not get involved, because he felt that Li Yong was not a person who did not speak, Li Yong was a talented person, and he was also a proud person, so he did not urge Li Yong to complete the bet, but he didn't expect to wait for such news, since Goguryeo really sent troops, although it was not to send troops to attack the Tang Dynasty, it also means that he lost this bet, no one expected that Goguryeo actually used troops against Silla, And it's not a small dispute, even Silla came to Datang to ask for help, Wei Zheng sat there in front of him a little dignified, but he didn't look dignified because he lost the bet, in his opinion, since he lost, that is, he blamed Li Yong, then it's nothing to make amends with Li Yong, and if he lost, it means that there is no war, so he expects himself to lose the bet, after all, it's just a crime, but it's much stronger than fighting with countless casualties, it's just that when I think of Silla running to Datang for help, His mood couldn't help but be heavy, he wasn't worried about how many people died in Silla, he was worried about the impact of this war, Silla came to the Tang Dynasty for help, so would the emperor send troops to Liaodong? It's not that there is no possibility, after all, if Goguryeo annexes Silla, it will inevitably increase its strength, and it may have an adverse impact on the Tang Dynasty, but it is not a trivial matter to send troops to Liaodong, the former Sui sent troops to the east three times but in vain, laboring the people and losing money, so from the heart, he is unwilling to send troops to the east, because in his opinion, the east crusade is a quagmire, once it falls into trouble, now the Tang Dynasty has created a prosperous era, the world is peaceful, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and it is a powerful Western Regions, Wouldn't it be a pity if such a good situation was buried because of the Eastern Crusade? If Goguryeo annexed Silla, of course, it would have an adverse impact on the Tang Dynasty, but compared to being mired in the quagmire of the Eastern Crusade, which would have a greater adverse effect? Of course, the Eastern Expedition to Liaodong was more harmful, and just when Wei Zheng was smiling like this, Ma Zhou came.

"Do you know about the Silla envoy coming to Chang'an for help?"

Ma Zhou asked, and Wei Zheng nodded solemnly.

"The old man already knows!"

Ma Zhou sighed.

"I didn't expect that! Since Goguryeo was so bold and dared to send troops to attack Silla, the queen of Silla actually sent envoys to ask for help, which shows that Goguryeo wanted to destroy Silla in one battle! ”

Wei Zheng bowed slightly.

"This is no small matter!"

Ma Zhou wanted to speak and stopped.

"Since Goguryeo sent troops to attack Silla, then the bet between the Lord and the Duke of Yeongfu ......"

Wei Zheng said calmly.

"Since the old man lost, the old man will naturally go to Li Jiazhuang to plead guilty, and he is willing to gamble and lose, which is nothing, Li Yong did not go astray, the old man is very happy, and now the envoys of Silla come to ask for help is the top priority!"

Ma Zhou groaned.

"Of the three kingdoms of Liaodong, Goguryeo was the most powerful, and Baekje and Silla joined forces to fight Goguryeo, how could Baekje sit idly by and watch Silla be destroyed by Goguryeo? Don't you know the truth that your lips are dead and your teeth are cold? ”

Wei Zhengdao.

"The truth is this truth, I'm afraid some people can't see it clearly! People, the most easily deceived by interests, are afraid that Baekje will have the idea of taking advantage of the fire to rob! ”

Ma Zhou shook his head slightly.

"Robbing while it's hot? Even if Baekje can take advantage of the fire to rob, then it can only drink some soup, Goguryeo is already the most powerful, and it eats meat, how will Baekje compete with Goguryeo at that time? Therefore, when Silla came to Datang for help, it was better to go to Baekje for help, and Datang Whip was out of reach! ”

Wei Zheng said in a deep voice.

"The old man is afraid, and the saint will have the idea of the Eastern Crusade because of this!"

Crusade? Ma Zhou's face couldn't help but change greatly when he heard this, he was born in poverty, so he also felt the suffering caused by the former Sui Eastern Expedition the most. What a terrible day! I don't know how many people have been killed by the three Eastern Crusades, and Liaodong is full of bones! Ma Zhou said in a deep voice.

"The three Eastern Crusades of the Former Sui Dynasty have learned from the past, how could a sage launch an Eastern Crusade because of this?"

Wei Zheng said in a deep voice.

"It's not that there is no possibility, now that our dynasty is strong, the soldiers are strong, and the Turks are powerful, and the Turks are powerful, and the sage is inevitably arrogant, and now Silla has sent people to ask for help, and the sage is hindered by the reputation of the Heavenly Khan, and may intend to go east!"

As soon as Wei Zheng's voice fell, Ma Zhou had already lost his voice.

"Crusade? This must not be! The lessons of the former Sui Dynasty are not just a waste of money and labor! ”

Wei Zheng nodded.

"It is true that the expansion of Goguryeo's annexation of Silla is not good for the Tang Dynasty, but the Eastern Crusade is even more unfavorable to the Tang Dynasty, and the prosperous era has just begun, how can it be ruined? So no matter what, the imperial court can't send troops! ”

Ma Zhou couldn't help but nod when he heard this, although the world is peaceful now, and the country and the people are safe, but no matter how thick his family background is, he can't withstand the toss of millions of laborers? If you really want to start the crusade, then once, twice, three times...... Thinking of this, Ma Zhou couldn't help but take a deep breath, he must not send troops to Liaodong, not only Ma Zhou and Wei Zheng are discussing, but the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty are discussing, since Silla came to ask for help, there are only two possibilities, either send troops or not send troops, if you don't send troops, then let Goguryeo annex Silla increase in strength, if you send troops, when you think of conquering Liaodong, everyone can't help but be awe-inspiring, a lesson from the former Sui Dynasty! The whole court is talking about it, this news is crazy in Chang'an City, even the people in the market are talking about it, some say that Silla is a subject country of the Tang Dynasty, and has always been deferential to the Tang Dynasty, if you don't care about the majesty of the Tang Dynasty, it will also let Goguryeo take the opportunity to become bigger, more rampant, and some people say that Silla is Silla, after all, it is not the land of the Tang Dynasty, it is not worth it to move troops for Silla and Goguryeo, the former Sui launched a million army three times in a row and did not defeat Goguryeo, it can be seen how difficult Goguryeo is, it is really not appropriate to move troops for Silla, Some people think that at this time and that time, Emperor Yang of Sui was still besieged by the Turks in Yanmen Pass, but now it is still the Turks but has been destroyed by the Tang Dynasty? The Tang Dynasty is the Tang Dynasty, the former Sui is the former Sui, the current lord is virtuous, the national strength is strong, but it is not the former Sui can be compared, this day, Chang'an City is very lively, the ministers and friends get together to discuss, the generals are the same, everyone is concerned about the same question, that is, whether the emperor will send troops to recruit Goguryeo, Lijiazhuang is also very lively, Cheng Yanjin, Wei Chigong and others have come to Lijiazhuang, today's Li Yong is not the fledgling officialdom newcomer, not only in the government and the opposition reputation, And it also has a great influence on the saints, although Cheng Biting Jin and they don't say it, they have to admit in their hearts that Li Yong is now more able to say things to the saints than them.

"Li Yong, your information is accurate, it's all those civil officials who are making noise!"

Cheng Yanjin shouted, and Wei Chigong nodded.

"Indeed, look at what kind of face those officials will have to meet you in the future, in my opinion, you should go to the saints to complain and kill their prestige!"

Xu Shiji said with a smile.

"Yu Shifeng will not be guilty of his words, so they will not feel that they are wrong!"

Li Xiaogong said with a smile.

"It's not just the imperial historian who wrote to impeach Li Yong, but also other civil servants!"

Li Yong just laughed when he heard this, Li Er thought about how could the Eastern Expedition punish the civil officials who went to the book at this time? Besides, Li Yong didn't suffer any losses, he hid in the Lishan Palace early in the morning, and choked those civil officials, but the emperor was almost not drowned by the spittle of the civil officials, Cheng Yanjin said with a smile.

"I don't know what Old Man Wei feels like in his heart now!"

Yu Chigong also laughed.

"Wei Zheng has just been upright all his life, and this time the boat capsized in the gutter, but Wei Zheng will do what he says, and he will definitely come to bear the guilt!"

Li Xiaogong said with a smile.

"This is really rare, Li Yong, when will Old Man Wei come to bear the guilt and ask you to report to us, and we can also be a witness!"

Be a fart witness, it's almost the same to see the excitement, Li Yong was speechless when he heard it, you really don't think it's a big deal to watch the excitement, Xu Shiji didn't have a good temperament.

"Okay, are you guys really going to watch the fun? Li Yong, don't really accept Wei Zheng's guilt! ”

Li Yong said with a smile.

"Uncle, don't worry, I understand that Lord Wei is also for state affairs, how can I, a junior, really accept Lord Wei's request for guilt?"

Cheng Yanjin said with a smile.

"Wei Zheng is very strong, but I can't help you!"

Li Yong also had a headache when he thought of this, so he could only take one step at a time, Wei Chigong got down to business and asked.

"Li Yong, Silla came to ask for help, do you think it is more likely that the saint intends to send troops or not?"

Li Yong did not hesitate to cut the railway.

"Of course the saint wants to send troops!"

Xu Shiji, Cheng Yanjin and others couldn't help but be stunned when they heard this, they didn't expect Li Yong to say it so surely, as a matter of course, Xu Shiji asked.

"Why? Are you so sure? ”

Li Yong said with a smile.

"Because I have tried the tone of a saint."

The reason why Li Yong told them so happily was because they still needed to charge into the court! Cheng Biting Jin They originally hoped to send troops to fight, but now that they know the emperor's intentions, they will definitely jump harder, Xu Shiji They also thought that Li Yong would list a lot of reasons for sending troops or something, they never expected it to be such an answer, no wonder Li Yong said it was so certain, so categorical, it turned out that he had tested the emperor's tone, Cheng Biting Jin's face turned red when he heard it, and he laughed.

"I knew that the sage was eloquent and strategic, and I knew that the sage would not tolerate Goguryeo being so arrogant!"

Li Yong said with a smile.

"I told the truth to a few uncles, but this matter has to be kept secret, and I hope that a few uncles will not spread it!"

Cheng Yanjin and Wei Chigong both patted their chests and said.

"Li Yong, don't worry! None of us are hard-mouthed people, we know what is important! ”

Li Yongqiang couldn't help but laugh out loud, aren't you people who are not strict-mouthed? Is there still a person in this world who is not strict-mouthed? However, although Cheng Biting Jin and Wei Chi Gong are not strict-mouthed, they know the severity, and it is estimated that they will try their best to encourage the generals to agree to send troops, Cheng Biting Jin They got the letter from Li Yong, and they left in a hurry, and they were very excited when they were all there, they really wanted to fight, and if they didn't fight, they would be old, and there would be no chance to lead the troops to fight in the future, if the saint wanted to send troops to the east, the battle would not be small. Goguryeo is not comparable to small countries such as Gaochangguo, it is enough to recruit Gaochangguo but choose a general to lead tens of thousands of troops, but it is not so easy to conquer Goguryeo, Li Yong returned to the inner courtyard, the upper room was quiet, Li Yong waved his hand to signal the maids not to make a sound, and walked in gently, only to see Li Lizhen sitting quietly in front of the window, his face was stunned, it seems that Li Liqin has known the news of the arrival of the Silla envoy, otherwise the mood will not be so low.
