Also on this night, Pei Shiju, who was sitting silently in the study, was also a little absent-minded. He waited for a long, long time until the news came, and then he let out a vague sigh.
Ordnance Supervisor Li Sicheng wrote a letter to impeach the prince, which should have been written by the East Palace. It was probably the prince's attempt to confirm whether His Majesty would take action against the Changlin Army soon, but Li Sicheng himself was probably not from the East Palace.
Pei Shiju thought to himself that although the prince was a bit stupid, after sitting in the East Palace for nearly ten years, even a pig could cultivate some power. This was the main reason why His Majesty did not rush to save money after the battle at Tiantai Mountain last year.
The prince was still thinking about how to choose the right time... Pei Shiju snorted coldly. In fact, as far as the current situation is concerned, it has reached a dead end. If King Qin joins the army, he is sure of victory. When he returns to Beijing one day, he will definitely return with a large army. , is there still an opportunity for the prince to take advantage of?
Li Huairen had the means and strategy, and actually sent the King of Qin into the army, leaving him with nothing to do. But Pei Shiju had been preparing for it for several years, how could he not have any backup plan?
There are not just one or two chess pieces that have been selected long ago. Depending on the changes in the situation, Pei Shiju will choose to use them. Although the risk is high, it is also a helpless move. At this point, no one can give up and no one can stop. Footsteps.
Of course, Pei Shiju knew in his heart that things would soon change on Longyou Road, but the prince didn't know about it. Thinking of this, Pei Shiju couldn't help but think of the Wei Siwang again.
Maybe only Li Huairen was very sure that Longyou Road would definitely change... Pei Shiju still didn't know how the other party suspected Longyou Road. Even if the war situation in Hedong took a turn for the worse, the young man did not change his mind.
By now, Pei Shiju was not sure whether he had to fight to the death with the other party, whether it was because both sides didn't trust the other and both wanted to seize the initiative, or because of his envy and jealousy of the young man.
Li Huairen was abandoned by his father, and he himself lost his father when he was young. He was not much better. He became famous at a young age, wrote gorgeous articles, was famous for his scheming, and became famous all over the world for splitting the Hu tribe.
But his life experience was even more bumpy, and Li Huairen was destined to go down in history in his 20s. Pei Shiju was jealous in his heart. The younger he was, the more famous he was, the more jealous he was. If I were born a few decades later, I would be no weaker than you, Li Huairen!
Suddenly there was the sound of slight footsteps outside. Pei Shiju frowned slightly and looked sideways. At this time, there was only one person who was not passing through.
After a while, the thin-looking Pei Shuying fell on Pei Shiju's knees and said, "Father."
After a long silence, Pei Shiju sighed softly, "Don't you want to leave?"
Pei Shuying still had clear tears on her cheeks, "Is it about to start?"
His father suddenly decided to send him away. Now there is a war in Hedong, and his father is preparing to send him to Hanzhong... Obviously, big changes are coming.
There was only a long silence in response. Pei Shuying straightened up and said, "My daughter will not leave."
"Nowadays in Chang'an, the people under King Wei Si are compared with the Tiance Mansion. Li Huairen has many outstanding men and women under his command. With the current situation, how is it possible that no one is investigating the Pei Mansion?"
"My daughter lives deep inside the house, making it difficult for outsiders to investigate, but if she leaves, she will be noticed...Father won't forget about the fire in the kitchen last year, right?"
"Once the daughter's departure is discovered, with Li Huairen's ability...do the prince and his father really have a chance of winning?"
Pei Shiju didn't expect his daughter to think so much. After hesitating for a long time, he still said nothing. Coming from a wealthy family, he always puts inheritance first, but that doesn't mean he doesn't care about treason... If everything goes well, Turkic Drink Ma Weihe might be able to capture Chang'an. It doesn't matter to him then, he is already eighty years old, but what about his daughter?
Yes, Pei Shiju never expected that the Changlin Army or the hundreds of Tianjie Army elites hidden in Yunyang County could break through the Sun Moon Lake. First of all, the prince could not agree that the limited troops could not be used in such a place.
Secondly, it may not be possible to break through. After the battles between Tiantai Mountain and Renzhi Palace, Wei Siwang's personal guards were faintly comparable to the Xuanjia soldiers of Tiance Mansion. It took a long time. Maybe Li Huairen could turn defeat into victory, and Sun Moon Lake is already in a storm. It's not clear, Li Huairen should be prepared.
Pei Shiju made two preparations. First, when the East Palace launched the attack, he summoned Li Huairen to the palace for an audience, and introduced him to the Taiji Hall to ambush him. After all, personal guards like Wang Junhao could not enter the imperial city and could only wait outside the Suzaku Gate. Although Li Shimin sent Qu Shiro stuffed himself into the Beiya Imperial Guards, but the Crown Prince already had the means to check and balance the Imperial Guards... But he didn't know the details, and it seemed that the Crown Prince was very confident.
Next is the Turks. Pei Shiju is counting on Ashina Sheer who hates Li Huairen to his core.
If Li Shan cannot be successfully ambushed, it is difficult to say whether the prince will succeed or fail in the end. However, given the current situation of the Hedong war and the current situation of only a few thousand troops in Jingzhao, as long as the Turks can defeat Huai'an King Li Shentong, There is a high possibility of entering Jingzhao. No matter how Li Mengchang can fight, he does not have enough troops after all.
Similarly, no matter how good you are at fighting, Li Huairen, you can't summon a large army, right?
When the time comes when you are captured alive by the Turks, Ashina She'er will either cut you into pieces or divide you into five pieces!
"Father, although Li Huairen must retaliate, he will not kill wantonly." Pei Shuying still persuaded her sincerely: "He may be looking at the prince, his father, or Li Dewu, and he may even eradicate the roots, but no I will do something to my daughter."
Pei Shiju felt his chest tightening at his daughter's words. He would never say that I was treasonous or that I had led a wolf into the house. I was hoping that the Turks would conquer Chang'an, so I sent you away... At such an old age, such shameless words are really too much to say. Don’t export it.
In the end, Pei Shiju could only nod helplessly and agreed to his daughter's plea. Things may not have come to that point. If he could successfully ambush Li Shan, get rid of the King of Qin, and urgently mobilize Li Yaoshi to lead his army south in the name of His Majesty, maybe he could Can it stop the Turks?
No matter what happens, if Li Shan's head is given as a gift, and then land, property, and food are given, the Turks may not necessarily have to conquer Chang'an... Anyway, the Tang Dynasty has already bowed its head.
Even if nothing can be done, the capital can be moved to Hanzhong. Even if he can't escape, Pei Ji is only in his early fifties and can still ride a horse and gallop. If he takes Pei Shuying with him, the chance of survival is not small.
Pei Shiju felt cruel in his heart, it would be best if he could ambush and kill Li Shan!
I have been preparing for such a long time, I have arranged everything, and the prince has also done some tricks. I don't believe that Li Shan can still be like before, still able to survive a desperate situation, and still survive in death!
