Chapter 44 The psychological shadow of the Tibetan messenger

Seeing that Pei Min was full of confidence, Li Longji was also inviting him to be infected by his confidence.

Pei Min has never disappointed him since his first meeting that day.

This time, he also chose to believe. Li Longji never lacked trust in his own people.

"In this regard, I believe that no one in the court's civil and military affairs is Pei Qing's opponent. You will be with me to receive the Tubo envoys from the Ministry of Rites. You will be responsible for discussing the matter of captives. I absolutely believe that you will not suffer any losses in this regard. But be careful, and you are not allowed to throw the envoys into the pigpen again!" He emphasized specifically, and said here, he laughed out loud.

The civil and military ministers couldn't help laughing with kindness.

Pei Min ignored the civil and military officials of the court and thought about how to cheat Tubo in this matter.

The civil and military officials dispersed, and Song Jing and Pei Min stayed.

Li Longji asked Song Jing: "What do Song Qing thinks when he was the prime minister to take over the affairs in the first place."

Song Jing is an old minister with a serious face, with phoenix eyes and lying silkworm eyebrows. His eyes are thin and small, giving people a serious and fierce feeling, and it looks difficult to get in touch.

"When you go back to your Majesty, all the civil and military officials seem to be reluctant to welcome me!" Song Jing said the truth, with a little helplessness, but more of it was fearless.

Like Pei Min, Song Jing was both young talents, knowledgeable and talented. He passed the high school Jinshi in his twenties, and was even younger than Pei Min. He became the top scholar at the age of 17. He was awarded the Yichang Order and was promoted to the Censor of the Supervisor, Fengge Household, and finally promoted to the Chief Censor of the Censor.

Song Jing's Fangzheng was undoubtedly revealed when he succeeded the Censor General.

Wu Zetian's favorite minister Zhang Changzong was known as the Lotus Liulang. He was deeply favored and monopolized the power of the government.

Song Jing ignored it and directly violated the palace rules for asking the ministers about their fortunes, and forced Wu Zetian to use the emperor's privileges to pardon Zhang Zongchang before he could save him.

Wu Zetian ordered Zhang Changzong and Zhang Yizhi to go to Song Jing's residence to apologize, but Song Jing refused to see each other.

This is just a small matter. What really made it famous was during the revival of Emperor Ruizong. After the revival of the Li Tang Dynasty, Emperor Ruizong Li Dan promoted Song Jing to prime minister, which was his precept. Facing the internal struggle between Li Longji and Princess Taiping, he did not give anyone face, and proposed the principle of "even if he was well-employed in the college entrance examination, those who were not talented will not be taken." Regardless of Princess Taiping who had great power at that time, Li Longji opposed and blocked him, and gave up more than a thousand foolish officials. In just one year, he almost offended all the civil and military officials in the court.

It is also conceivable that Song Jing could not rub any sand in his eyes.

Li Longji looked at Pei Min and said, "What do Pei Qing think?"

"The more you don't welcome it, the more necessary it is for Song Xiang to exist." Pei Min had a certain understanding of Song Jing's resume, so he knew why all officials did not welcome Song Jing. He bowed and said, "Your Majesty is indeed as wise as a torch. With Song Xiang in charge of the administration, he will definitely promote the spirit of diligence and integrity."

He just stood up and said without any pain in his back. He was far away in Taozhou, and Song Jing was in charge of the administration of the government and could not take care of him no matter what.

As for the officials in the capital, they are dead fellow Taoists who are not dead.

"I think so too!" Li Longji looked at Song Jing solemnly and said, "I hope that all civil and military officials can devote their thoughts to the construction and exhibition of the Tang Dynasty like Pei Qing, rather than to flatter each other. What I want is that famous officials and generals gather together, and a hundred flowers bloom, discuss with each other, and serve the glory of our Tang Dynasty, rather than giving in to the situation, talking to one person, and the ministers agree with each other."

"I understand!" Song Jing knew the profound meaning of Li Longji's words, but he was surprised in his heart. He had long heard that Pei Min was deeply trusted by Li Longji, but he could not have believed that he had trusted him so much. Thinking of Pei Min's actions, he was undoubtedly a rare pillar of the Tang Dynasty, and he had the idea of ​​making deep friendship with him.

Pei Min guessed that Li Longji wanted to use his influence in the Censorate to assist Song Jing, whose strength was far less than Yao Chong, so he understood it.

After Song Jing retreated, Pei Min told Li Longji about his intention.

"In recent years, our military strength in the Tang Dynasty has made great progress. The soldiers are highly morale and cannot be compared with each other. Before coming to Chang'an, I had a discussion on Tubo military affairs with Duke Guo Jie. We agreed that our cavalry was relatively weak and it was not the time to capture the Jiuqu of Hexi. We could take this opportunity to exchange some war horses with Tubo to enhance the strength of our cavalry. As long as we recover the Jiuqu of Hexi, the horse government will definitely be able to make progress and achieve the great achievements of Taizong, which is just around the corner."

"Haha!" Li Longji smiled and said, "I knew Jingyuan had other plans." He said, pondering: "Ma Zheng has been abandoned for many years, but now he only relies on the Weiyuan Military Horse Farm. The exhibition is really slow. Being able to recover the Hexi Jiuqu as soon as possible will be of great benefit to Ma Zheng. I will let you say. Let's go to Wude Hall and meet the Tubo envoys."

Pei Min accompanied Li Longji to the Wude Hall. He arranged for Gao Lishi to pass on the Ministry of Rites and summoned the envoy.

Before Li Longji summoned him, the Ministry of Rites was responsible for receiving the reception at the Sifang Pavilion to show the warmth and hospitality of the Celestial Kingdom.

The first person to enter the hall was Pei Min's elder brother, He Zhizhang, the Minister of Rites. The two brothers greeted each other with their eyes to show their friendship.

Pei Min looked behind He Zhizhang, wanting to see what kind of virtue his opponent is like this time.

At this moment, I couldn't help but grin and there was a familiar face.

Behind He Zhizhang is an old Tubo minister who is old and has white beards. He doesn't know the old Tubo minister, but the person behind the old minister is very familiar with it. It is Aishet who was locked in the pigpen for him.

Aishet already had a certain sense of fear of going to the Tang Dynasty. However, when it comes to classics and history talents, Tubo could not find a second person like him who could catch Confucian classics and history books and come at will. Even if he had a psychological shadow, he had to take the important task.

In order to calm his heart, the old woman in power in Tubo, Chimalun, comforted her: "This time, go to Chang'an, go from Tieben City to Shanzhou, bypass Taozhou, enter Chang'an, and do not contact Pei Min."

Iron Blade City is the Stone Castle City that Pei Min wanted to recover. It was just two countries, and the names were different.

Aishet reluctantly agreed. He really didn't dare to go to Taozhou to review that experience. He bypassed Taozhou from afar, but he didn't expect to see the demon in Chang'an hundreds of miles away from Taozhou.

"Uh..." Aishet saw Pei Min's friendly smile!

The internal organs suddenly rolled in the stomach and stirred up trouble. The sandalwood in the hall seemed to have turned into a drowning atmosphere in the pigpen because of Pei Min's existence, and the delicacies enjoyed at noon also seemed to have turned into water for feeding pigs.

Although Aishet knew that he could not lose Tubo's face, he still couldn't help but vomit with his stomach in his arms.
