Drunk, the ministers got on their horses and returned home with the support of the sergeant.

Hearty, singing and drinking.

No matter who it was, Du Xianyan's essay was still ringing in his ears.

"With a blow, break that song in the south of the mountain; Jumping forward, ruined in an instant...... The heavenly soldiers together, and the soldiers will immediately fall apart. The liver and brain of the dead are smeared, and the flesh and blood of the living are not guaranteed...... May there be a fall, sincere attachment, then the good will be the same, and the help will remain; Stubborn resistance, for my Koukou, then Tiange Chengyu, swept away.

Die and the country will be destroyed, and laugh for the world......

Such as the law.

Such as the law. ”

Hearty, hearty.

Especially Du Xianyan, especially Du Xianyan, was admired and toasted by countless people, and even didn't care about the emperor sitting on the high platform.

But the emperor just looked at it with a smile, his expression full of pride.

Li Xuan sat in the carriage, thinking about the emperor's expression, and couldn't help but laugh.

Du Zhenyan, Du Zhenyan.

Today's article, the world is overwhelmed.

Since then, he can be called a grandmaster.

Not only that, but today he can write an essay to crusade against Tibet, so what about tomorrow!

The excitement on Li Xuan's face dissipated without a trace in an instant, and his eyes were completely cold.

At this moment, a voice sounded outside the car window: "The king of Nanchang is here, I don't know if you can do it?" ”

Li Xuan was slightly stunned, it was Pei Yan's voice.

Immediately, Li Xuan's face was full of drunkenness, he lifted the curtain, looked at Pei Yan in the carriage opposite in a bit of a daze, shook his head, and said as clearly as he could: "Uncle, I don't know what's going on?" ”

"Something important." Pei Yan looked at Li Xuan with a smile, the sharpness in his eyes seemed to directly tear the fog on Li Xuan's surface.

Li Xuan was slightly stunned, looked ahead, and said, "Go to Changzhou Concert Academy." ”

"Whoa!" Li Zhu replied slightly, and the next moment, the carriage was already slowly walking towards Pingkangfang.

……

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, there is a hint of silence in the hustle and bustle.

The guard on duty was surprised to see Li Xuan coming to the concert hall today, and hurriedly welcomed Li Xuan and the others in.

"Let the others rest, prepare two pots of good tea, and take them to the back hall." Li Xuan turned to look at Pei Yan and said with a calm smile: "At the moment, the people in the Jinjuan Academy are all officials from Changzhou, scholars who want to participate in the imperial examination, and a few businessmen, but they were all playing crazy last night, and they shouldn't have gotten up yet." ”

Pei Yan nodded and said with a smile: "The New Year's thing should indeed be a good fun." ”

Entering the back hall, only Li Xuan and Pei Yan remained.

The others stood guard at the gate of the courtyard to avoid approaching.

Wait until the duty room delivers the tea and pastries, and then slowly retreats.

"Uncle, please!" Li Xuan raised his hand slightly and said, "The cook of the Jinju Academy is from Changzhou, and there are some techniques that have not been seen in the capital. ”

"Good!" Pei Yan picked up a piece of chestnut cake and tasted it, it was indeed very delicious: "Not bad." ”

"When my uncle goes back, let someone bring some." Li Xuan smiled and sat on the soft couch, calm and silent.

Pei Yan's gaze swept over Li Xuan and nodded slightly, just this calmness, no wonder Li Xuan was able to make such a great contribution in Changzhou.

After a slight sigh, Pei Yan finally spoke: "If my uncle remembers well, Du Zhenyan, who wrote the Tubo text today, was recommended to the prince by his virtuous nephew, right?" ”

"That's right." Li Xuan nodded and said: "But this article was written by Yang Jiong at the beginning of the year, and Yang Jiong resigned to Du Xianyan, and other He Zhizhang, Lu Zhaolin, Song Zhiwen and others also participated.

It is also for this reason that His Majesty made Yang Jiong and Song Zhiwen bachelors of Chongwen Pavilion, and Du Xianyan, who was the most responsible, became a bachelor of Hongwen Pavilion. ”

Hearing Li Xuan's careful explanation of the ins and outs of the future, Pei Yan nodded lightly, and then asked: "This time I returned to Beijing, the virtuous nephew compiled "Cut Rhyme", wrote "Han Treatise", wrote "Wandering Ziyin", and led "Tubo Wen", it seems that he deliberately wants to work hard in the literary world, and the matter of Tubo, the virtuous nephew seems to have the intention of entrusting it, why?" ”

Li Xuan's half-stretched hand paused slightly, and then replied calmly: "The rotation of positions is normal, and when the little nephew wins the law and cultivates for a few years, I think someone will transfer the little nephew back when he comes to the court, and the little nephew still has a high old mother, a beautiful wife and a beautiful concubine, and a young son and daughter, so it's better to go back to Chang'an earlier." ”

Li Xuan's mother, Ouyang, is nearly sixty years old, and there is one wife, three concubines, four sons and one daughter at home.

Li Xuan, as the governor of the border state, is now married, and his mother Ouyang can leave the capital, but his wife Liu Jinyu must stay in Chang'an.

Liu Jinyu is here, so Li Zhizhao, Li Zhiming, and Li Jinxia must stay by her side.

In addition, Li Zhiyou and Li Zhichang are also still young and must stay in Beijing.

This is still the past few years, and in a few years, the children will go to school, and it is a lot of things.

As a father, it is also appropriate to stay by his son's side.

When Li Xuan said this, ordinary people could no longer speak.

Pei Yan looked at Li Xuan deeply, and said softly: "The virtuous nephew is so sure that he will definitely return to Changzhou, maybe it is also possible to be transferred to another state." ”

Li Xuan said with a smile: "With the relationship between the little nephew and the crown prince, it should be possible to come to Beijing to do a few years of idle work, and Your Majesty should also be willing." ”

"What about the situation in Tibet?" Pei Yan opened his mouth coldly, stared at Li Xuan and asked: "Tubo is in his realm after all, even if the virtuous nephew takes Tubo, but if he wants to stabilize Tubo, it is impossible to stabilize Tubo without more than ten years, the incident of Baekje back then is a precedent, do you want Tubo to take the road of Baekje again, and in a few years, the virtuous nephew will go back to pacify?" ”

After Baekje was destroyed by the Tang Dynasty, it made a comeback with the support of the Silla people in just a few years.

You know, at that time, Silla Ke was still an ally of the Tang Dynasty.

Li Xuan looked at Pei Yan in surprise, he didn't expect him to be able to think of this layer.

Li Xuan took a light breath and said a little helplessly: "It's up to anyone, but it's okay." ”

"How can it not be done by someone?" Pei Yan asked rhetorically, and even asked with some puzzlement: "Your Majesty, the queen of heaven is a saint and a wise person, and the ministers of the court and the central government are also very talented, how can they not see through the danger, that is, the prince, the virtuous nephew also said, the feelings are very deep, and the important place of Tubo is very important, how can you rest assured that it will be handed over to others?" ”

"Others?" Li Xuan couldn't help flashing a sneer, and said with a disdainful face: "It's already the luck of the little nephew if he didn't replace the little nephew before he laid it." ”

"The virtuous nephew is saying that now someone has moved the mind to replace the virtuous nephew from the front of the Tibetan army...... Who, who is so bold? Pei Yan's expression suddenly turned cold.

"Who knows." Li Xuan's expression was indifferent, and he said softly: "Uncle thinks that Your Majesty is really just preparing for the grassland by transferring Wang Xiaojie back from the front of the Tubo army?" ”

Pei Yan's face finally sank.

Since Li Xuan was transferred back to Chang'an in August last year, in addition to worrying that he had other reasons, he was also preparing for an accident in the battle of the grassland.

Once something happens, Li Xuan can immediately lead the left and right guards of the court to deal with it.

Now, the emperor has transferred Wang Xiaojie back from the front line, and I am afraid that he also has this intention.

"What the hell is going on?" Pei Yan's eyes narrowed slightly, he was also a person who had been a commander in the army, so he naturally knew the taboo of changing generals before the battle.

In particular, their opponent is still on Qinling.

"In November last year, Wang Xiaojie received a letter from Chang'an, with no head or tail, but persuaded Wang Xiaojie to step up the offensive, and it is best to lay down one or two more checkpoints before the year." Li Xuan looked at Pei Yan and said, "Uncle should know that what Xuan ordered at the beginning was to ......fight steadily and steadily."

"Once Wang Xiaojie can achieve results, then it is natural that the virtuous nephew's strategy fails; And once Wang Xiaojie misses, then it is the fault of the virtuous nephew and the front-line commander. Pei Yan's face became solemn, what a ruthless move!

"Fortunately, Wang Xiaojie did not make his own decisions in this matter, and let the letter be sent to Chang'an, and when it arrived in the hands of the little nephew, the little nephew hurriedly sent the letter, so that the front line must be safe." After a slight pause, Li Xuan said with a wry smile: "But this matter, somehow, fell into the ears of His Majesty, and this is what happened later." ”

Pei Yan's face was completely gloomy, and then he asked very incomprehensibly: "What kind of person is it, so disregarding the overall situation?" ”

Li Xuan raised his head and asked rhetorically: "Uncle thinks that if the little nephew is evacuated from Changzhou, then who is the best candidate to replace the little nephew?" ”

Pei Yan was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head and thought about it.

For a while, countless figures appeared in Pei Yan's mind, but they were quickly denied one by one.

Even Wu Chenghei was denied at the same time at the moment of appearance.

At this point, Pei Yan believes that Empress Wu, the overall situation, there will be no problems with Empress Wu.

Pei Yan finally shook his head and looked at Li Xuan, and said in disbelief: "Uncle can't think of who it is?" ”

Li Xuan smiled lightly and said, "That's because my uncle has only looked at the present, and my uncle thinks about it, once the world changes, who will be the best candidate to replace the little nephew?" ”

Pei Yan raised his eyebrows, and his expression sank.

Once there is a change in the world and the emperor dies, then it is natural that the crown prince will take the throne.

When the crown prince ascends the throne, who will attack Li Xuan, who has the motivation to attack Li Xuan, and who has the ability to attack Li Xuan?

A figure appeared in Pei Yan's mind, and then a group of figures appeared in Pei Yan's mind.

Wei family, Wei family.

Chengnan Weidu, go to the fifth day of the day.

This sentence is not only about Weidu's wealth, but also Weidu's greed.

Tubo is not only an enemy of the Tang Dynasty, but also a country full of incomparably rich wealth.

If Li Xuan becomes the master of Tubo, it is naturally indispensable to make some money by himself, but in the same way, a large amount of wealth will be sent to Chang'an, sent to the palace and the treasury.

Not to mention anything else, Li Xuan has no doubt about his loyalty to the emperor and the imperial court.

But if it's a different person, it's different.

At least the Wei family doesn't have such a bearing.

If they really go to Tibet, I'm afraid that the whole of Tibet will have to be emptied by them.

Especially at that time, Webster was already the queen.

Even if Li Xuan is a general in the court and the governor of the border states, I am afraid it will be difficult to resist the covetousness of the queen's family, especially since he is also the king of the clan, and he has given others the excuse to do it.

As for the turmoil that may occur in Tubo after Li Xuan is transferred back.

Heh, who cares.

The Wei family doesn't care anyway, it's a big deal to transfer Li Xuan back when the time comes, anyway, over the years, they should have fished all the money.

As for the future, if Li Xuan governs Tubo again, they will harvest another crop.

……

"They're tempting." Pei Yan sighed lightly and said, "They are testing whether Wang Xiaojie will be obedient, if he is obedient, then he will naturally start to lay out at this time." ”

Li Xuan gently rubbed the teacup and said indifferently: "The world is like this, who can do anything." The little nephew was deprived of the position of the head of the Dao, so it is not too much to ask for a country to sacrifice wine, right? ”

Li Xuan raised his head, his eyes flickering with indifference.

"Let's hold off for a few years." Pei Yan collected his thoughts, looked at Li Xuan solemnly, and said, "If there is a way to let the virtuous nephew stay in Tubo for a few more years, how about it?" ”

Li Xuan was slightly stunned, and asked with some uncertainty: "Is there a way?" ”

"Naturally, there is." Pei Yan smiled.

No one would be reluctant to hold power for a longer time, and Li Xuan is the same, he has his own careful thoughts, but he is the governor of Tubo, which is beneficial to the country.

"How?" Li Xuan looked at Pei Yan deeply, and his expression became cautious.

"It's all about checks and balances, if it's ...... left," Pei Yan's face became playful.
