Back to the prosperous Tang Dynasty to be the emperor

Chapter 647
"Your Highness, what happened?"

Ever since Deling investigated, Zhuang Yong had been holding back a question in his heart, but Li Xian didn't say anything, and he didn't dare to ask indiscriminately. He tentatively asked a question.

"Well, let's put it this way, some people are trying to play tricks on the restoration of Persia and force me to fight. This idea must have been offered by Ming Chongyan, but it is definitely not from his original intention, but from someone else. Zhuang Zhang Anyway, any clues about this?"

Zhuang Yong is an absolute confidant, Li Xian will not hide too much about him, so he simply stated the facts, and then asked casually with the attitude of giving it a try.

"Returning to Your Highness, if this claim is not made by Ming Chongyan, then it is very likely to be made by Ge Gong, the champion of the new military force!"

Zhuang Yong heard the words, pondered for a while, and gave a very reliable answer.

"Huh? How do you say this?"

Li Xian didn't have much hope at first, he just asked casually, but when he heard what Zhuang Yong said with such certainty, he was stunned for a moment, and then asked suspiciously.

"So that His Highness can know that before coming down, he has made a clear investigation. That Ge Gong has always been friends with Ming Chongyan, and he is a frequent visitor to the Ming Palace. Early this morning, the two met again in the Ming Palace. When it was almost noon, Ge Gong was alone. One person went back to the mansion first, and Ming Chongyan entered the imperial city shortly thereafter, thinking about it this way, the person who made the plan might be this new champion of martial arts!"

Zhuang Yong is a very careful person. Almost all the ministers of Empress Wu's party are under his surveillance. After receiving Li Xian's rather weird order earlier, he not only sent people to investigate the situation in the imperial city, He also didn't forget to track down the whereabouts of Empress Wu's party. For Ming Chongyan, a key surveillance object, he knew a little more about it. At this time, Li Xian had a question, and he answered it in great detail.

"Ge Gong?"

Li Xian has no shortage of military generals in his hands, so he seldom does things to win over military generals from the court, and he is not very interested in those martial arts soldiers who have not experienced actual combat, except to meet the new recruits at the Luming Banquet as usual Except for the civil and military Jinshi, he has never worked in it, and he is not familiar with all the people. Even if Ge Gong is the new champion of science and martial arts, Li Xian doesn't think much of it. It's really hard to think about.

"Returning to Your Highness, this person is from the Songzhou (now Songpan) family. He is only [-] years old. He was awarded a martial arts scholar in Songzhou last year, and he won a martial arts exam at the beginning of the year. He entered the East to participate in the Grand Competition soon after. It is very rare to win the first prize in martial arts, and to win three prizes within one year. He currently holds the position of Wai Lang, a member of the Military Selection Department of the Ministry of War. During his tenure, he has made quite a lot of achievements.

Seeing the puzzled look on Li Xian's face, Zhuang Yong obviously couldn't remember who Ge Gong was, so Zhuang Yong didn't dare to neglect him, he hurriedly bowed his body, and told Ge Gong's resume one by one.

"Hehe, it's interesting to win three yuan in a row. This guy seems to be quite capable. Go back and check this person's background in detail!"

Even though Zhuang Yong has reported all of Ge Gong's resumes, Li Xian still vaguely felt that there was something wrong in it, because Li Xian believed that this son seemed to be very familiar with his strategy and thinking, and they had never been in contact with each other. Now, this is obviously unlikely, but Li Xian couldn't tell where the problem was, so he ordered Zhuang Yong to investigate in detail.

"promise."

Considering the huge power of "Ming Di", it would not be too difficult to investigate Ge Gong's root cause. Zhuang Yong still had this confidence, and he answered straightforwardly.

"Well, let's do this first, let's go."

Although Zhuang Yong's loyalty is unquestionable, but the next discussion is too cryptic, it's not enough for outsiders to understand, even if he is a confidant like Zhuang Yong, Li Xian still doesn't want him to hear about it, so he casually ordered.

"No, this subordinate will leave."

Now that Li Xian had issued the order to evict guests, Zhuang Yong didn't dare to delay any longer, he hastily complied with the promise, left the study together with Gao Miao, and went to arrange the relevant arrangements without mentioning it.

"That little girl Taiping really has a heart, Ying Jing'er should be able to return her favor."

If Princess Taiping hadn't told him, Li Xian would never have expected that someone would play tricks on the restoration of Persia. If he hadn't prepared well, if something happened suddenly in the court, the consequences would be a bit unbearable. Even if he could get away with it, It must be extremely embarrassing, the loss of reputation is small, and the loss of strength is big. In this sense, the gift given by Princess Taiping is indeed not light.

"That's all something to say later. The matter has not yet exploded, and His Highness still has time to make plans. It's still the same old saying. The current plan is to be stable!"

Zhang Jianzhi is a very stubborn person, and has never been in favor of Li Xian's way of using troops abroad. Even though Li Xian has repeatedly explained the meaning of taking the Persian Gulf, Zhang Jianzhi still does not change his original intention. Li Xian used too much force, so he didn't forget to remind him again.

"Well, I know that in my heart, isn't it just to go out to the Hexi Army? Just go out, and the left and right soldiers are raised as well as raised. It's better to practice in actual combat. If the heart of the father can be reassured, then everything will be fine." Well, what is missing now is who should lead the army, I have to think about it for a while."

For Zhang Jianzhi's stubbornness, Li Xian had nothing to do, but he didn't take it seriously, so he replied with a confident smile.

"Soldiers should be dispatched as soon as they are needed, but there must be a price. If you want to send troops, you must get something after all. The key to the matter must fall on His Majesty."

When it came to specific interests, Zhang Jianzhi didn't talk about prudence or prudence, and he would never reduce even if it was just a small profit.

"Father? Well, that needs to be discussed."

If he could get it, Li Xian didn't want to miss it for nothing. Hearing Zhang Jianzhi's words at this time, he naturally recognized it, but he was still a little uncertain about how to pluck the hair from the old man in this way.

"This matter is easy, Your Highness only needs to... be sure to get something!"

Seeing Li Xian groaning for a long time, but still unable to make a decision, Zhang Jianzhi had no choice but to speak out.

"Okay, that's it!"

Li Xian silently chewed on Zhang Jianzhi's proposal. Seeing that there was nothing wrong with it, he stopped hesitating, laughed and clapped his hands, and made a decision... "See Father !"

In the study room of King Yue's mansion, Li Chong and his brothers were listening to Li Wenchang, who had just returned from Hexi, talk about the grand occasion of the war against Tubo, when they suddenly saw King Li Zhen of Yue walking in from outside with a sullen face, and they dared not neglect After going, each got up, paying homage incessantly.

"Well, it's okay." Li Zhen was obviously not in a good mood, she waved her hand casually, and then called out, but when her eyes fell on the dusty Li Wen, she showed a look of relief, Wen Yan He asked calmly, "When did Wen'er arrive?"

"Go back to the father, the baby has just arrived, and he is greeting the eldest brother and others, the father returned."

Although Li Wen was busy in Hexi, he had participated in several battles at any rate, and his killing spirit was much stronger than before. A military salute was about to come down, but he was quite sassy.

"Well, it's good to be back, it's good to be back, are you tired? Chong'er, all of you brothers will accompany Wen'er to settle down first. Tonight's family banquet will welcome Wen'er. Let's all go down."

Seeing that Li Wen has made a lot of progress, Li Zhen was very pleased, but after all, she had something on her mind, so she just exchanged a few words and sent everyone out together.

"promise!"

Seeing this, Li Chong and the others dared not say much, they bowed their promises, and all exited the study, only Chen Wushuang and Pei Shoude stood aside.

"This subordinate has seen the prince."

Previously, Chen Wushuang just sat on the side silently, and did not rush up to greet Li Zhen with all the people. It was not until Li Chong and others retreated that he walked forward unhurriedly, bowed and asked Ando.

"Wu Shuang, you have worked hard for me these years. Wen'er's safety in Hexi is all thanks to Mr. Wang. Xiao Wang will remember it in his heart!"

Even though she has never been there in person, Li Zhen is very clear about what kind of place Hexi is. With Li Wen's ability, it is not easy to survive, let alone the scene that he is today. , It was far beyond Li Zhen's expectation, and Li Wen's credit for this was naturally not Li Wen's, which Li Zhen knew very well.

"My lord is too famous, Chen is ashamed! I see that my lord has a lot of thoughts, is there something in the way?"

The matter of Hexi, in Chen Wushuang's view, was really unbearable, so he didn't want to talk about it, so he simply thanked him, and then changed the topic.

"Well, there is indeed a difficult matter. Wushuang's return is just in time, let's just decide it alone. This is how it is. Well, the person in the palace intends to approve the playbook of the Prince of Persia, and wants to let the East Palace Leading the army to go out, you have to stand alone to support, from Wushuang's point of view, what should you do alone?"

The people Li Zhen trusted the most were not his sons, but Chen Wushuang and Pei Shoude, two confidantes. Since Chen Wushuang had a question at this time, he would not have anything to hide, so he directly revealed the difficult matter.

"This plan of diverting the tiger away from the mountain is indeed a good plan. If the East Palace is unprepared and suddenly mobilized, it may be able to achieve extraordinary achievements. If the matter is not secret, although the whole work will not be obtained, it is still possible to transfer the Hexi Army. If it can be done, the one who makes the plan is a great talent!"

Chen Wushuang is worthy of being one of the wise men in the world, and after thinking about it for a while, he has already explained the mystery.

"Oh? How do you say this?"

Hearing Chen Wushuang's words, Li Zhen's heart couldn't help but move, and she vaguely grasped the true meaning, but she was not sure, so she hurriedly asked a question.

"Your Majesty has learned that a powerful country like Tubo can be wiped out in just one place in Hexi. How powerful is the army? If the Holy Master doesn't say it, how can he be defenseless? The reason why he didn't move it was just a slap in the face. The governor of Longzhou, Ling, was adjusted earlier. It is a signal, if someone makes a fuss today, His Majesty will be very happy, but, it is expected that His Majesty will not approve the invitation to command the East Palace, so why is it difficult for the prince to make a decision?"

Chen Wushuang thoroughly analyzed the strangeness in a few words, but did not say clearly how to deal with it, but gave Li Zhen the right to make the decision rationally.

"Well, that's how it is, I don't know what to do!"

Li Zhen is also an old fox, once she figured out the mechanism inside, she would be in good spirits, she stroked her long beard on her chest, and showed a happy smile.
