Chapter 10 The determination has been made
Seeing Pei Min revealing her steadiness as she was far away from her age, Guo Yuanzhen also understood in his heart why Xue Na admired him so much. It was indeed extraordinary to know how to advance and retreat.
Pei Min did not mention Lu Zangyong, Chang Yuankai's affairs changed the topic and said with some congratulations: "I often heard Taigong talk about Shangshu Guo, saying that you were very strategic, and you were very good at Sima Rangju in the Spring and Autumn Period. The laws were solemn and the military disciplines were strict. He was also good at pacifying and ruling the people. Especially the plan to kill Lun Qinling, govern Liang in five years, and the feat of four years of management of the Western Regions. The Tang Dynasty's strong enemy Tubo was limited to civil strife and killed his own arms. He defeated Liangzhou, which did not obey the king's king's cattle and sheep in the fields, and did not pick up the remains on the road, which made the people of the Western Regions want. I also heard that when Shangshu Guo was transferred from the Western Regions, the chiefs of the tribes of Anxi cried and sent him away, and he was reluctant to leave Shangshu. The people of Liangzhou heard that you were going to pass Liangzhou and gathered at Yumen Pass 800 miles away in Liangzhou to prepare a pot of pulp.
.Shangshu has been abroad for ten years and has won the hearts of Liangzhou and the people of the Western Regions. He is really a model for us. I have been quite interested in Liangzhou and the Western Regions recently. I have read the Great Tang Dynasty Records written by Master Xuanzang for more than five times, and I have read a lot of unofficial history and essays about the Lianglong Western Regions. I also know that these are not worthy of skin, and they are definitely not as knowledgeable as you. If you have free time, I hope you will give me some advice." As he said, the serious worship, Pei Min has basically integrated into this society and is used to the worship of mutual worship with friends and elders. After this habit, not only does not have the trouble at the beginning, but he feels very humane. People worship each other can enhance friendship and further reflect each other's respect.
Guo Yuanzhen made Pei Min a little fluttering. The three most proud things in his life made Pei Min say in a respectful tone. He was very proud, but after hearing what he asked in the end, he could not know what he was thinking. Looking at Pei Min's eyes, he muttered: "Don't just want the surname Pei, change the surname Xue, and have a virtue with your grandfather."
The reason for saying this is because they drank with Xue Ne last night. At first they were talking about Pei Min. Later, Xue Ne began to look for the roots around Longyou, Liangzhou, and the Western Regions. Of course, Tubo, Turks, and Turkic cavalry were indispensable, and these three countries that threatened the Tang Dynasty. Guo Yuanzhen saw through Xue Ne's intentions. Although he was envious, he still told Xue Ne what he knew to him, so that Xue Ne had an understanding of the situation in the West so that when the war began, he would not be able to do anything about a brand new situation.
Just as I was satisfied with the old Xue Ne, the young one actually followed him.
Pei Min was puzzled at first, but remembered that Xue Na and Guo Yuanzhen had chatted with each other last night, and suddenly realized in his heart, and said with a smile: "I think Taigong is thinking of me."
Guo Yuanzhen replied: "Okay, come back and visit me at my house. I will tell you about the situation in the West."
Pei Min was overjoyed and bowed: "Thank you Mr. Guo to give advice." Knowing yourself and your enemy will never be defeated in a hundred battles, which is suitable for any time. He also hits a snake stick and changes his name to Guo Yuanzhen.
It is now office hours, and Guo Yuanzhen did not have a detailed conversation with Pei Min, asking Pei Min to greet several other Warlords and told him to do it well. Pei Min naturally promised that even if he came to gilded, he would have to coat him with a layer of platinum instead of brass.
Pei Min then visited the Minister of the Secretariat, Yuanwailang and other superiors respectively.
It is worth mentioning that Dou Chen, the Ministry of War, and Guo Yuanzhen, managed the Ministry of War by managing the military, and did not tolerate Dou Chen as a person who was stingy outsiders. Today, I learned about the situation and directly asked Dou Chen to go home. In less than a quarter of an hour, the memorial to impeach Dou Chen had been delivered to the Shangshu Province. After review by Li Longji, it was officially removed.
Dou Chen's position.
Pei Min had met his colleagues from the Ministry of War and was not in a hurry to go back. Instead, he watched in the Treasury Department how the elderly handled things and worked, and understood the process in advance to lay a foundation for tomorrow.
After handling the military affairs of the Ministry of War, Guo Yuanzhen went to Wude Hall to pay homage to Li Longji.
Wude Hall is located on the right side of Tai Chi Palace, adjacent to the East Palace.
Li Longji has succeeded to be the emperor because he was in charge of the Tai Chi Palace, but Li Dan did not delegate power. The owners of the Tai Chi Palace were Li Dan, and Li Longji could only listen to the affairs in the Wude Hall.
When Guo Yuanzhen arrived at Wude Hall, Li Longji was discussing the details of the mutiny with Cui Riyong. Guo Yuanzhen's plan was desperate and he was seeking victory in a dangerous situation. If Li Longji had not been very courageous, how could ordinary people dare to adopt such a strategy? Hearing Guo Yuanzhen's request for a meeting, Li Longji invited him into the hall without hesitation.
"Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty!" Guo Yuanzhen visited the court with ecstasy and told Li Longji about Pei Min's agreement to join his camp.
Li Longji was not as happy as expected, but looked at Cui Ri strangely.
Cui Riyong asked anxiously: "Shangshu Guo didn't tell Pei Min about our plan, right?"
Guo Yuanzhen said: "This matter is of great importance. How can I make the decision? I will always follow Your Majesty's arrangements."
"That's good, that's good!" Cui Ri breathed a sigh of relief and wiped away the sweat from the forehead and said, "Shangshu doesn't know. Today I saw Pei Min get on Princess Taiping's carriage with my own eyes. Their relationship is definitely not like that. It should be chosen for another person. It is too risky to use Pei Min, and it is unreliable."
Guo Yuanzhen said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, the old minister has known this for a long time, and he has a knot in his heart. But today he talked with him, and he has a quick mind, ambitions and a strong opinion. He knows the situation in our Tang Dynasty, which makes the old minister look down on him. He told me that Princess Taiping is narrow-minded and cannot bear the great responsibility. On the other hand, Your Highness is brave and brave and wise. The old minister believes that Pei Min is truly willing to help Your Majesty achieve great things."
Li Longji looked at Cui Riyong, and Guo Yuanzhen didn't know how to judge time. Now Princess Taiping is getting tighter and tighter, and she is thinking about life and death. Even if he acts decisively and takes the determination to break the jade rather than be full, he is a little hesitant at this moment, paused and asked, "What did Mr. Xue say?"
Guo Yuanzhen said: "Mr. Xue has a high evaluation of Pei Min's ability. As for his character, he only uses the four words of a good man. Your Majesty, it is indeed risky to use Pei Min, but there is no risk to change someone? Princess Taiping's infiltration into the world is far better than you and me. Who can be sure of the good guy you have found and be close to Your Majesty? Is it not a detailed work specially arranged by Princess Taiping? There are risks on both sides. I think that using Pei Min will be less risky. It is just because Pei Min has great ambitions. As long as Your Majesty promises to follow the dragon, how dare he not serve Your Majesty."
Li Longji's mutiny was a desperate bet for Princess Taiping. Hearing Guo Yuanzhen's words, his hesitant gaze turned firmly: "Pei Min is willing to serve me, and I do not doubt his loyalty. So, according to Mr. Guo's plan, use Pei Min as a blade, and first determine the Northern Army!"
