Li Longji never thought that Pei Min would just say a few words and directly let the withdrawal of troops and accept Tubo's surrender, Wang Ju, turn against each other.

Not only Wang Ju, but also those civil officials who had previously been determined to withdraw their troops, changed their words and helped them speak.

Civil and military opposition again.

Li Longji had to accept this ability to reverse the world.

Pei Min also laughed at the civil officials who turned against each other.

The reaction of this civil official was as expected by him.

What civil officials think about is nothing more than economic development and people's peace of mind.

They believed that garrisoning troops in Moliyi was not very meaningful, and there was no other benefit except to increase the economic burden of the court.

Pei Min's words made them realize in an instant that the value of Mo Liyi and the inexhaustible salt resources can bring unimaginable economic effects to the court and make up for the tightness of the national treasury.

If there is such a good thing, there is no need to care about the face. It will change the flag without saying a word.

Literary!

That is a group of wolves in sheep's clothing, who are usually gentle and friendly, but once they touch their interests, their exposed fangs are even more terrifying than tigers.

What can you do if you are so desperate to force the palace?

After a few words, Ge Fushun was so mocked that he almost wanted to dig a piece of land into it.

Seeing that his family was in trouble, Wang Maozhong behind the scenes had to stand up and said: "General Ge also thought about the overall situation to avoid meaningless disputes. Especially when Fang Gang recovered the Jiuqu land of Hexi, he needed to recuperate well, and there was inexplicably a gap with Tubo, which was not conducive to long-term development."

In fact, he just wanted to be the governor of Longyou, but he knew his weight and relied on Li Longji's power in Chang'an to show off his power. If he really wanted to go to the front line to fight against Tubo, Turks, etc., it would be no different from seeking death.

The main task of the Longyou Jiedushi was to resist Tubo. The Tang army withdrew from Moliyi and could avoid direct contact with Tubo.

In just three or five years, there would be no peace between the Tang and the Tibet, and he would have the merit of defending the territory. At that time, he would be promoted to the Minister of War, which would be sure to be promoted to the Minister of War.

Wang Maozhong is arrogant and domineering, and everyone knows it!

But what civil officials are most afraid of is arrogant and domineering. Compared to arrogant, who can compare with them? It’s just that they do not call their own behavior arrogant but are arrogant and honest and straightforward advice.

"General Wang is such a bad thing! How can it be meaningless to defend the territory of our Tang Dynasty? Moliyi was exchanged for my Tang Dynasty soldiers with their flesh and blood. It has the passion of loyal and righteous martyrs on it. How can I say it is meaningless to protect their sacrifices!" The Minister of Personnel also stood up and said passionately, with awesome righteousness.

"Enough!" Li Longji stopped the quarrel between civil and military officials and said, "What kind of quarrels in this hall is quarrel!" Seeing that civil and military officials calmed down, he looked at Pei Min, who was watching the show by the initiator, and said, "I think everything you say makes sense. What does Pei Qing think?"

Pei Min smiled and said, "If Tubo comes from the whole country, I will reject it for Your Majesty. If Tubo comes from a side army, I will annihilate it for Your Majesty. If Tubo really dares to tear up the alliance, I will dare to disrupt him. Qinghai Lake will turn the world upside down! Why are you afraid of them turning against each other?"

Wang Ju exclaimed: "Only the Duke dares to fight and fight, he will set an example in the Tang army!"

"Okay!" Li Longji said with certainty: "I also think what Pei Qing and Wang Qing said is reasonable. The Tubo envoy once said that the meat that was eaten into his mouth would be spit out. Moliyi is now the territory of my Tang Dynasty, and I do not trade the land. After the Ministry of Rites and the Minister of Rites, I expressed my attitude with the Tubo envoy. Moliyi did not give up any land, and urged the uncle and nephew to have an alliance with uncles and nephews, and asked them to know. Not only will we not let Moliyi, we also want to develop nearby salt ponds. They really want to get along with my Tang Dynasty and re-establish the alliance. I can give in to the redemption of the people and let them spend less money. As for the others, I will not give in at all."

The Minister of Rites received the order and accepted the promise.

Wang Maozhong looked a little indignant. Thinking of Pei Min's words, he couldn't help but feel shocked. He instantly realized that he was going to compete with him for the position of Longyou Jiedushi! Thinking of his record and Li Long's favor, he instantly regarded him as his number one competitor.

The court meeting ends!

Li Longji invited Pei Min to have lunch together!

The Sanlang of Li Jia laughed and said, "The rare civil and military unity in this matter is united and unanimous to the outside world. I really sweated coldly for you. I thought you would be as angry as the last time, blushing and speechless as I said. But I didn't expect that I could instigate the civil servants in just a few words. It was really amazing and seemed much more clever."

Pei Min smiled and said, "It's not that the ministers are so great, but they actually scratched the itchy part of Shangshu Wang."

Li Longji nodded and said, "That's true. Wang Qing is loyal to me, the Tang Dynasty, and what he thinks and seeks is nothing more than peace in the world and the health of the people. I am particularly pleased if you can care about this."

Pei Min said: "The lonely yin does not grow, and the alone yang does not grow. The so-called different paths of civil and military affairs actually means different views, just like an eagle and a dove, which have different plans. I have never rejected civil officials, but just looked down on those guys who are full of benevolence, righteousness and morality and misinterpreted the meaning of a saint."

Li Longji's eyes lit up and said, "Eagle, pigeon? This metaphor is appropriate. Jingyuan, do you think you are an eagle or a pigeon?"

Pei Min said without hesitation: "My nature is radical and war-oriented. As a soldier, he is naturally a hawk. But as I said before, I never reject the doves. Hawks have hawks' ideas, and doves have their own doves' routines."

Li Longji didn't care about eating anymore and smiled and said, "Do you think the hawks are important or the doves are important?"

Pei Min corresponded: "The hawks are for the country's strength, while the dowks are for the people to live and work in peace and happiness, all for the good of the country and the good of the Tang Dynasty, and all the right path. It should be no distinction between the superiority and inferiority. The blind hawks will be like Emperor Wu of Han and Yang Guang. Emperor Wu of Han has made great achievements throughout the ages and has few emperors who can compare, but behind the glory is the waste of the country and the population is reduced by half. As for Yang Guang, he will directly defeat the great country. The dowks are like the Jin Dynasty that has traveled south, and they will have a destruction in the end."

In fact, the best metaphor is the Southern Song Dynasty...

The wealth of officials and the peace of the people in the Southern Song Dynasty was difficult to compare with in all dynasties, but so what? The country lost for hundreds of years until it perished, leaving only the hatred of Yashan Mountain.

However, in this era, Zhao Kuangyin's grandfather was not born, so he could only replace him with the Jin Dynasty.

Li Longji listened with interest.

Pei Min continued: "The strongest Han Dynasty was not the period of Emperor Wu, but was the period of Emperor Xuan. Emperor Xuan governed with the principles of kings and hegemony, and the politics was clear and the four barbarians were submissive. The strongest in the Tang Dynasty was in the period of Emperor Taizong. Emperor Taizong was able to attack from all sides and take into account the livelihood of the people. History can be seen, hawks and doves coexist and restrain each other, and they do not blindly rush to fight the military and militant, nor can one avoid and retreat. Those who can be strong will be strong, and those who cannot be strong will be given up, which is the king's way."

He also had a warning to say this.
