Chapter 41: Tubo seeks peace, is it war or peace?
"Very good!"
Pei Min smiled and waved his fist. When he came to this era, the longest he lived in his hometown in Youzhou was not his home, but Yuan Luqian's Yuan Mansion.
Pei Min is very familiar with his first friend who came to this world. He does not have the intention of pulling Yuan Luqian. He believes that with Yuan Luqian's own abilities, as long as he is appreciated and respected, there will be no problem. Whether he is in Taozhou or Weizhou, he can have a good future.
As he said, next he had to plan to invade the land of Hexi Jiuqu in the Tang Dynasty, regain the territory belonging to the Tang Dynasty, and have no time to distract himself from handling government affairs.
Zhang Jiuling has the talent of a prime minister and is more than enough to handle government affairs in a state. But a clever wife cannot cook without rice. If he leaves the pressure alone, he will inevitably make him unable to do anything. If he has one more Yuan Luqian, everything will be safe.
Seeing Pei Min happy, Yuan Luqian also smiled and said, "Then from now on, Luqian will be promoted by the Duke of the Kingdom!"
"Tell me all this!" Pei Min said: "If Brother Lu Qian hadn't taken in, I might have been sleeping on the streets!"
Speaking of the past, the two of them sighed.
Before they knew it, they all walked out of the academy and embarked on their own future.
Is Pei Min easy?
Not easy!
He went to Chang'an alone. If he hadn't been lucky enough to meet Zhang Xu, He Zhizhang, and Xue Ne, the grandfather, who was a passerby who had no status and no family status, wouldn't he be today?
Yuan Luqian said that they were all smooth sailing, but in fact!
Things in the world are not so smooth. Only after some hard work can we achieve the current results.
After three rounds of wine.
Yuan Luqian remembered the night the three of them parted many years ago, and Pei Min told them the Romance of the Three Kingdoms: "It's been a long time since I heard Brother Pei talk about the Three Kingdoms, let's have a paragraph?"
"Then let's have a break!" Pei Min remembered that when he parted, he told them about Cao Cao's fierce battle in Xiapi City, and Lu Bu died in Baimen Tower, and then continued to speak with emotion.
Seeing that Pei Min's original intention was not changed, Yuan Luqian also felt that he had no regrets in this life because of this.
Just as they were drinking happily and talking happily, the servants came to report to Gao Lishi for a visit.
Even though Yuan Luqian was far away in Weizhou, he knew that Gao Lishi was the number one celebrity beside Li Longji and the number one eunuch. He came to ask for it in person, and there must be something important to discuss, and hurriedly said: "The important thing is important. I will live in Pei's mansion tonight and I will have plenty of time to meet."
"Okay!" Although Pei Min was a little disappointed, he knew that state affairs were the priority and that Gao Lishi could come to invite him in person. He must have something to do, so he said, "Then I will go first, Brother Lu Qian eats and drinks at will. I feel bored, so he can go to my study. The mansion has more than 8,000 books, and there are many lost ancient books. I guarantee that you will not be happy about Shu."
Yuan Luqian's eyes lit up, and he didn't care about eating and drinking, "It's still Brother Pei who understands me!"
Pei Min tidied up her clothes and went out to meet Gao Lishi.
"Eunuch Gao!" Pei Min stepped forward and said hello, "But what's the point?"
Gao Lishi smelled Pei Min's smell of wine and frowned and said, "The Tubo envoys are here. They just arrived in Chang'an and rushed to meet His Majesty and expressed their friendship, intending to rebuild friendship with our Tang Dynasty and restore diplomatic relations."
Pei Min frowned and said, "What does Your Majesty mean?"
Gao Lishi said: "Your Majesty has not made a decision, but the ministers in the court are divided into two factions. One accepts Tubo's favor and agrees to form an alliance. The other faction is naturally opposed and argues with each other, and each has its own reasons. Your Majesty thinks that Tubo has expressed his request for peace this time and intends to form an alliance. It is the credit of the Duke and I want to hear your suggestions and opinions."
Pei Minhan expressed his understanding and was about to go to the court with Gao Lishi.
Gao Lishi hurriedly said, "Duke should wash up, don't worry, you are so drunk that you may be too indecent when you arrive in the court."
Pei Min suddenly woke up, patted his forehead and said, "I'm so angry that I'm confused. The eunuch waits for a while and I'll go."
With his alcohol content, this little wine is not a big deal, but the smell of alcohol on his body cannot be eliminated. If he really goes to court, he will be impeached for his image.
After changing his clothes, taking a shower at will, and following Gao Lishi to the temple.
Pei Min was still waiting for the communication at the entrance of Tai Chi side hall, and then heard a rumor sound coming from the Tai Chi side hall.
"Your Majesty, our country of heaven should have the elegance of the country of heaven. How can we be very concerned about the country of barbarians? Now we have achieved great victory, which has severely defeated the spirit of Tubo and promoted the reputation of our Tang Dynasty. Now the Tubo envoys come here sincerely, and should stop when they see it." A soft and pleasant voice said something that made Pei Min outside frown.
"Is there no food in the court?" Pei Min muttered in his heart. He was outside the hall and could not see the situation inside the hall.
However, before he was transferred to Chang'an, he was also one of the regular officials. He still had a certain understanding of the elderly in the court and heard the identity of the speaker.
His name is Lu Huaishen. He was one of the five prime ministers of the dynasty and the highest level of soybeans among the prime ministers. Because he was reluctant to do so, he buried his head in eating when the prime minister was discussing affairs and laughed as the "prime minister".
Pei Min didn't expect that Lu Huaishen wouldn't watch the show at this critical moment.
However, Yao Chong lost power. The prime minister who only knows how to eat will not eat and eat straw instead?
Pei Min complained in her heart.
Li Longji in the hall was making the civil and military officials in the court dizzy.
Although he has ambitions, he is somewhat emotional and has a little indecisive. Those who agree to form an alliance have their own reasons, and those who disagree to form an alliance have their own reasons. Just like parents-in-law quarreling, the parents-in-law speak their right words, and the women-in-law speak their right words, but they cannot find a unified answer.
When Li Longji learned that Pei Min was coming, he immediately asked him to come in and talk.
The reason why Tubo surrendered was because Pei Min won consecutive victories against Tubo...
First, he defended Jincheng and gained enough time for Xue Ne to break the enemy; he lured the enemy into depth, annihilated 20,000 Tubo soldiers, seized Guangen Town, and cut the nail into the heart of Jiuqudi, Hexi; finally he designed to lure the veteran Tubo general Di Dayan to attack, and captured 40,000 Tubo elites in one fell swoop. Even the old Tubo woman intended to plan the encirclement of the Tang Dynasty, which was skillfully destroyed by Pei Min.
It can be said that Pei Min is the most important thing in the Tang Dynasty, and his opinions are crucial.
Pei Min strode into the hall.
The eyes of more than ten officials in the hall fell on Pei Min, some were relieved and happy, while others were envious and complicated.
Pei Min is still so young, but many people can't beat his achievements and his political achievements.
A long time ago, Li Longji said that Pei Min was his Huo Qubing. Everyone thought it was a bit exaggerated, but today it seems that it is not much different.
"Pei Qing, it's just right! I've seen Tubo seek peace from my Tang Dynasty today. Your achievements are unparalleled. Tell me about your opinions and opinions? Let the ministers refer to them..." Li Longji said with great interest.
