The military city was very noisy. The deputies of Tang Youzhi and Luo Huanzhang were arranging tens of thousands of troops. On the Tibetan Front Guard side, Wei Rui and other commanders were in charge. Whether it was camps or military supplies, the resettlement of 60,000 people always took a while. Fortunately, Everyone was very capable, and they were all elite soldiers and generals, so there was no trouble.

After Silent Cloud left the Commander's Mansion with Pei Yue, they walked all the way to the west city wall, followed closely by dozens of masters from Taishitai Pavilion.

Pei Yue looked calm, but his heart was already in turmoil.

He has always had very complicated feelings about the big man in front of him.

What cannot be denied is that Silent Cloud did help him solve the crisis several times. Although to outsiders, the purpose of the spy leader was not to help him, but only Pei Yue knew in his heart that Silent Cloud was just right every time he took action. This saves a lot of trouble. However, the relationship between Silent Cloud and the Pei family is too close. It can be said that without Pei Zhen, he would not be what he is now. In addition, Silent Cloud had shown a stance of favoring Pei Rong, which made Pei Yue unable to do so. Trust the other person completely.

The two of them walked all the way to the west city wall. A section of the Beijing Army was responsible for guarding the city. The soldiers stared at the west side honestly and did not panic because of the approach of this man, one old and one young, who was obviously a big shot.

The group of people walked more than a hundred feet, Silent Cloud stopped and turned to look at the empty battlefield to the west. It was full of corpses. In the distance, the continuous military camps of Xiwu could be seen. The Zhennan General Zhang Qingbai might also be observing at this time. Guping camp.

After watching for a moment, Silent Cloud asked softly: "Why do you want to kill Ning Zhong?"

Pei Yue didn't understand what he meant, frowned slightly and asked: "Can't kill?"

Silent Cloud suddenly changed the topic and said: "Before the war, you were training soldiers in Linqing, and you also saw Wang Jiuxuan and Mo'er there. With your intelligence and wit, you can naturally understand that Wang Jiuxuan's appearance means that His Majesty has begun to doubt Lu Min. Bei After winning the battle, you did not return to Linqing from Lingzhou to wait for the next command. Instead, you went south from the vicinity of Hucheng and took greater risks to deal with Zhang Qingbai. In addition to not wanting to be controlled by Lu Min, I can't think of a second reason."

Pei Yue did not speak, but listened quietly.

Silent Cloud continued: "Lu Min refused to save him, and you lost thousands of subordinates. I can understand your sad mood. But you must have laid an ambush at Tang You's place. As long as you can persuade the Longgong Commander, you can use it again." If he convinces Luo Huanzhang, and combined with Mo'er's identity and Wang Jiuxuan's secret decree, he can completely negate Lu Min's military power."

He turned to look at Pei Yue, with a heavy look of worry on his face, and said slowly: "But you didn't do this. After killing Ning Zhong, the situation will become out of control, and there is no chance that Lu Min will bow his head. If today I didn’t show up, what are you going to do? Bring the Tibetan Front Guards and merge with the city’s defense armies? Is this the result you want to see?”

By the end of the sentence, Silent Cloud's tone had become very stern, revealing a somewhat majestic aura befitting his status.

Pei Yue was unmoved and said calmly: "I didn't think about it that much."

Silent Cloud shook his head and said, "This is not your style."

"Style?" Pei Yue pulled out a sneer from the corner of his mouth, looked at Silent Cloud with cold eyes, and said slightly angrily: "I wanted to kill Ning Zhong a few months ago. Such a waste is not worthy of sitting as the head coach of Guping Camp. In terms of position, Jiming Village is the core of the military camp system on the southern front. My sworn brother is still there to support him, but if I hadn't persuaded Ning Zhong to send reinforcements, this military camp would have been lost long ago, and the entire South Line would have been lost. The line becomes the back garden of the Xiwu Iron Cavalry."

He paused, and his tone became colder and harsher: "Master Shen, do you know how I persuaded him? Daokou Village fell, I collected nearly a thousand defeated troops, and then Gu Chongshan, the defender of Xishui Village, handed over all the cavalry to me. Relying on the old soldiers of Nanying and these mixed soldiers, I defeated the Xiwu infantry in Jiming Village and relieved the crisis. Ning Zhong, that loser, actually wanted to snatch the military merits that the soldiers had worked so hard to obtain in exchange for this. Only then are we willing to send reinforcements to Jiming Village."

At this moment, the expression on Pei Yue's face was so murderous that the crows next to him were frightened and subconsciously wanted to get closer.

Silent Cloud waved his hand and said calmly: "These are not enough reasons for you to kill him yourself."

Pei Yue sneered and said: "I know that he is a third-class prince and the commander of the border camp. If I chop off his head with a knife, there will be endless troubles. But if he doesn't die, Lu Min will not go crazy, and the situation in the Western Region is still precarious. , who delayed Mr. Shen on the road for a long time? If you had come two days earlier, everything would have been different, at least my soldiers would not have sacrificed in vain."

Silent Cloud didn't pay attention to the anger and ridicule in his words, and sighed softly: "I guess what you are thinking, and I don't believe that you are a person who will be carried away by anger. Although you are still very young, you can see that Following you along the way, I have known for a long time that you are not a shallow junior. There is no doubt that you are a very smart person, but your methods are too sharp. Have you ever thought about what His Majesty will think of you? "

Pei Yue was stunned, with a bit of shock in his eyes.

Silent Cloud motioned the crows to stay further away with his eyes, and then lowered his voice and said: "His Majesty has guessed your identity and thought you were Chen Qingchen's son, that's why he used you so highly."

Pei Yue was momentarily speechless.

Silent Cloud shook his head slightly and said: "Our Majesty has the whole world in his heart, and his vision is so high that no one in the world can match it. Do you really think that he will believe that Pei Rong, a drunkard and a womanizer, is providing shelter to the descendants of the Chen family? Do you really think that he will Have you never doubted Cheng Anhou from the beginning to the end?"

Pei Yue felt extremely ridiculous at this moment and almost collapsed and said: "Since he knows, why did he let Lu Min come to the West?"

Silent Cloud looked up at the horizon, chuckled and said, "Because he wants to be the Holy Emperor, how can he be executed without teaching?"

Pei Yue felt as if his heart had fallen into an ice cave, and his hands were trembling slightly involuntarily.

Silent Cloud continued: "Lu Min also waited for your husband and I to appear before he figured out this truth, so he would rather die than return to Kyoto, even if he could live for a while longer. Your Majesty will never trust anyone, he will Use this matter to understand clearly the hearts of the courtiers below. Why did he allow me to let Mo'er temporarily handle military affairs in the Western Region? Why did he let Wang Pingzhang's most respected eldest grandson come here with a secret order? Why did he let you, a young junior, take charge of the Tibetan Front Guard? , suddenly became a new member of the military?"

He looked at Pei Yue's distracted face and sighed: "Your Majesty not only wants to see Lu Min's details, but also wants to see the thoughts of me, Wang Pingzhang and Gu Liang. The Beijing army only sent the weakest Beida Battalion to support the western border, and the southern border The army has not moved at all, and even the Dingxi Camp, which has the largest number of troops among the Western Army, is still sitting firmly on the bank of Cangwu Mountain. This is because no matter how badly the Guping Camp is beaten, even half of Lingzhou may fall to the iron cavalry of Xiwu. , he has the ability to turn the entire situation around."

Silent Cloud suddenly felt a little lonely, shook his head and said: "Our Majesty, it is never a certain person who plots, but everyone is just a chess piece on the chessboard in front of him."

Pei Yue felt as if his head was about to explode. The pain was excruciating for a moment, but the real anger surged from the bottom of his heart.

He suddenly punched the wall next to him and spat out two words.
