Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The reform of the military system has been ongoing. Most of the soldiers in the Tang Dynasty's army are now recruited. If the army wants to go on an expedition, it must be mobilized urgently.  What is different from usual is that today's war mobilization speed is much faster. One hundred thousand troops were assembled near Chang'an within half a month, almost twice as fast as before.  As the Minister of the Ministry of War, Chen Yi has been very busy in the past half month. It can be said that most of the things have to be handled by him. Fortunately, the people under him are capable, and the Tang Dynasty has established a complete set of systems for military mobilization, so that all aspects can be carried out.  Ready in place soon.  After all aspects were prepared, the Dingxiang Dao army was ready to set off.  Before the army set off, Pei Xingjian talked to Chen Yi privately.  Chen Yi, who guessed that Pei Xingjian would definitely talk to him, was not too surprised. The two found a quiet place to talk.  Pei Xingjian and Chen Yi have not interacted much in private in the past two years. The main reason is that the two people's positions in the court are getting higher and higher. If they have frequent contact, it will definitely give people the truth, and even Wu Zetian will be afraid of something.  The two ministers, who are very important in the court, have close contacts, and everyone will think about it in a certain way. Therefore, the two deliberately avoid too many private contacts unless something really happened.  Nowadays, many important events have happened in succession in the DPRK. Pei Xingjian is going to lead an army to the north again. He doesn¡¯t know when he will come back. It is normal to exchange views on DPRK affairs before going out.  In the elegant room of Qingfeng Tower, Chen Yi and Pei Xingjian met.  A large number of followers were guarding the outside, and no one could enter and disturb them without permission.  "Brother keeping the promise, you will lead the army to the expedition in two days. I will drink tea instead of wine today. I wish you victory in countering the rebellion and return in triumph!" Chen Yi raised the tea cup in front of him and saluted.  Although there is alcohol in Qingfeng Tower, Chen Yi never drinks when he comes here. He only drinks other drinks except tea. It is noon again.  Both of them had business to do in the afternoon, but they couldn't miss it by drinking.  Pei Xingjian also raised the teacup and said with a smile: "Thank you Ziying for your congratulations. I hope that I will still have the courage to quell the Turkic rebellion!" "I will!" After Chen Yi put down the teacup,  He smiled and said: "Brother Keeping the promise has been in Anxi for so many years, but the Turks fled when they heard your name. The Turks in the north and south of the desert must not be much better. Brother Keeping the promise led an army into the capital of Shanyu  The day of the Protectorate is the time when the rebellion breaks out!" "Thank you for your good words!" Pei Xingjian chuckled and sighed: "I also hope that the rebellion of the Turks in the north can be quelled as soon as possible, and the Shanyu Protectorate can be restored.  An Ning, you can lead your troops to a triumphant victory as soon as possible! Nowadays, there are constant disputes between the DPRK and China. I am very worried that there will be chaos again. In the past few years, too many things have happened that caught people off guard!" Pei Xingjian turned to business.  Chen Yi didn't beat around the bush anymore and explained what he meant directly: "Brother keeping the promise, it is actually not appropriate to lead an army in this turbulent time. As the head of a hundred officials, you should be in charge of the court at this time. Beware of the court.  To cause chaos, instead of leading an army to fight against the rebellion!" Pei Xingjian picked up the tea cup and smiled bitterly, but did not follow Chen Yi's words to express his opinion.  "Brother keeping the promise, don't you think it's unusual for Pei Yan and Li Jingxuan to stand up together to recommend you to the Queen Mother and Her Majesty to lead the army on an expedition?" Seeing that Pei Xingjian didn't express his intention, Chen Yi asked.  Pei Xingjian put down his tea cup and looked at Chen Yi with shining eyes: "You also noticed something unusual?" Chen Yi nodded, "It's a bit unusual. Maybe they want you to stay away from the court. You have to stay away from home for a long time."  Soldiers have less influence on the court!" Pei Xingjian was noncommittal and asked Chen Yidao: "Zi Ying, do you think the Queen Mother thinks the same way?" Pei Xingjian's question made Chen Yi stunned, and he did not answer immediately, but took it seriously.  After thinking about it for a while, he finally nodded: "There may be such an idea. It's possible that the queen really wants to send you outside to lead the army!" Chen Yi's answer did not surprise Pei Xingjian. He sighed and  Said: "Zi Ying, if this is really the case, someone led the army to go on an expedition. Maybe it is a good thing!" "No! How could it be a good thing?" Chen Yi shook his head, "At this critical moment, it is definitely not a good thing for Brother Keeper to lead the army to go to war.  , if there is another dispute in the court, it will be troublesome without someone like you who can command the ministers! You are still the chief minister of the new emperor!" "Since I have led the army on the holy order, I can only  If you can accept this fact, don't think too much!" After Pei Xingjian took a sip of tea, he said in a nonchalant tone: "Zi Ying, I asked you to come out today. In addition to chatting with you about the expedition, I also want to  I want to ask you about some other things, and I hope you can tell me the truth!" "Brother Keeping the Agreement, please tell me if you have anything to say!" Pei Xingjian approached Chen Yi and asked in a low voice: "Zi Ying, I want to ask you, what are you doing?  Did you have a conflict with your brother-in-law Wu Min? " "Why did Brother Keeper say this?  " Pei Xingjian smiled meaningfully, "Looking at your performance in many things now, I have come to this conclusion!" Chen Yi no longer denied it, and said helplessly: "I won't hide it from brother Shou Yue, because Murong Qing and Murong Murong  After Ping's incident, Uncle Minzhi already had a prejudice against me!" "How could it be because of two women?  "Pei Xingjian shook his head, "This is just an excuse. According to what everyone thinks, he doesn't want to see you becoming more and more favored by the Queen Mother. He is the only heir of the Wu family, and he has inherited the title of Duke Zhou. According to everyone's opinion,  , he should be trusted by the Queen Mother more than you, but in the past few years, the Queen Mother trusted you far more than him. No wonder he has opinions!" "Now that his official positions are above mine, it shouldn't be the case.  You have an opinion!" Chen Yi still didn't want to tell others about the conflicts between him and He Lan Minzhi. Pei Xingjian shook his head: "I don't think so. I feel that as your official positions are promoted, the conflicts will only get worse.  The more intense it is!" "I hope we can avoid it as much as possible!" Chen Yi sighed. Pei Xingjian smiled, "I just remind you to pay attention. I also hope that you will not have disputes, otherwise there will be more chaos in the DPRK!" "I hope there will be more chaos in the DPRK!  So!" Chen Yi smiled helplessly. Pei Xingjian also saw Chen Yi's helplessness. He stopped talking about this topic and changed the subject: "Zi Ying, do you think His Majesty's behavior now is his true self, or is he his true self?  Deliberately?  " Knowing that Pei Xingjian would definitely ask him about this matter, Chen Yi just thought about it for a moment and replied: "Brother Keeping the promise must have noticed it too. Your Majesty must have done this deliberately. Your Majesty just doesn't want to make you angry.  After marrying the Queen Mother, he tried hard to hide his true nature. The son born to the Queen Mother must not be so cowardly, haha!" "So Zi Ying thinks so too?  Pei Xingjian had a slightly surprised look on his face, "Do you think the Queen Mother thinks so too?"  " "I don't know about this!" Chen Yi shook his head, "But this should be what the Queen Mother expected to see!" Pei Xingjian looked thoughtful, looked at Chen Yi, and said what he wanted to say: "Look  The emperor's state of mind is very comparable to that of others. Can we say that he is very capable and does many things that ordinary people can't predict?  " Chen Yi thought for a while and then said: "This is possible, but no one knows how the emperor's temperament will change!" "Did Xiang Wangdan really die of illness?  "Pei Xingjian asked this question when Chen Yi was caught off guard. After asking, he stared straight at Chen Yi. Chen Yi's heart skipped a beat, but he replied calmly: "It should be because of this.  Died of illness! At least I think so. Judging from all aspects of Xiangwang's physical symptoms, there is no sign of poisoning! Why does Brother Keeper ask this?  " Pei Xingjian did not answer immediately, but looked directly into Chen Yi's eyes. Chen Yi did not avoid it. Looking into each other's eyes, he said softly: "The late emperor passed away, and the prime minister was haggard in grief.  After keeping vigil day and night, he collapsed from exhaustion. In addition, his original physical condition was not good, and he became ill after catching wind and cold. His condition was very serious, and many internal organs failed. He eventually died without treatment!" "That means that the Prime Minister and the  Are the conditions of His Majesty, the late Crown Prince and King Pei similar?  " Chen Yi shook his head, "That's not entirely true. Strictly speaking, the diseases contracted by King Xiang are very different from those of His Majesty, the First Prince, and King Pei. It can be said that King Xiang's disease is more dangerous! " "Oh?  ! So that¡¯s it!¡± Pei Xingjian seemed to have realized something, and did not ask for the reason anymore. He smiled and then said: ¡°The Prime Minister died of illness. Your Majesty is relieved a lot. He no longer has to worry about anyone threatening his throne.  , the son of the late emperor and the empress dowager, he is the only one who is still healthy and can inherit the throne!" "Brother keeping the promise is not entirely correct!" Chen Yi looked at Pei Xingjian with a half-smile, "Although your majesty does not have the heir of the empress dowager,  Brother, but there are still people who will threaten his throne!" Chen Yi understood what Pei Xingjian just said, that is, this man suspected Li Xian of poisoning Li Dan. This is quite ridiculous, Wu Zetian suspected him  Li Dan was removed, and Pei Xingjian suspected that it was Li Xian who did it. He really didn't know what the other ministers would think, and what Li Xian and Wei Shi would think. Maybe the ministers, including He Lanmin, were wondering if it was Li Xian.  Wu Zetian, Li Xian, and Wei Shi will guess what he did. Although the truth of this matter has been announced, it is destined not to be so easy to convince people. "Oh?  !" Pei Xingjian raised his eyebrows and looked at Chen Yi in disbelief, "Zi Ying, who else do you think will threaten His Majesty's throne?  " "The Queen Mother!" Chen Yi said lightly: "The person who can threaten your Majesty's throne the most is the Queen Mother. Without the Queen Mother, even if the Prime Minister is alive, she cannot threaten your Majesty's throne as emperor!" "The Queen Mother?"  "Pei Xingjian was very nervous.He frowned, a little puzzled, "The Queen Mother only has such a normal son, how can she bother him?" Chen Yi approached Pei Xingjian, and then lowered his voice and said: "Brother Keeper, do you think the Queen Mother is a woman?  Don¡¯t you ever have the idea of ??becoming an emperor?¡± ¡°Ah!¡± Pei Xingjian was stunned and looked at Chen Yi in complete disbelief, as if he had never thought of this!
