The first thousand two hundred and eighty-four chapters have already thought of a way
"Father, everyone knows that we can't blame you for what happened on the front line."
"Then Hou Junji defected, and he knows our generals very well."
"That's why we have been suppressing our army."
"If it were other people, they might not be as good as my father."
At the British palace, Xu Zhen and his father persuaded him.
Xu Shiji was lying on the bed, his eyes still dull.
Xu Zhen was a little anxious.
His father had been like this all day and night without saying a word.
Xu Zhen didn't even know what his father was thinking.
And he didn't dare to take a rest.
I'm afraid that if I leave, something will happen to my father!
"Father, if you think about it again, even if it is the emperor himself, wouldn't he be defeated repeatedly in front of Yeon Gaesumun?"
"It's his own life..."
"Shut up!" Xu Shiji suddenly shouted loudly.
Xu Zhen was startled. When he looked at his father, Xu Shiji returned to his previous appearance.
"As a minister, failing to do your own thing well is a capital crime." Xu Shiji's voice sounded slowly.
When Xu Zhen heard this, he became even more angry.
He didn't expect why his father would be so stubborn.
He, Xu Shiji, missed the emperor, but the emperor showed no mercy to him.
In the Taiji Hall, in front of hundreds of officials and the Goguryeo envoys, he scolded Xu Shiji like that.
The cruelty of war often makes it difficult to defeat a veteran who has fought many battles, but accusations from one's own people can easily do so.
Xu Shiji, that's it.
Today, Xu Shiji has taken all the responsibility for the consecutive defeats on the front line on himself.
Even including Qin Qiong's death in battle.
When Xu Zhen saw his father acting like this, he didn't know how to persuade him.
I could only sit next to him and sigh secretly in my heart.
"Father, His Highness the King of Han will come to visit you today." Xu Zhen said to Xu Shiji.
Xu Shiji's eyes flashed.
Xu Shiji admired Zhao Chen from the bottom of his heart.
If it weren't for Zhao Chen, they might have died by the swords of Yeon Gaesumun's army.
But after all, Zhao Chen was just a minister and could not influence the emperor's thoughts.
"Young Master, the Queen, His Royal Highness the King of Han, and Divine Doctor Sun are all here." The butler's voice suddenly came from outside the door.
A rare look of joy appeared on Xu Zhen's face.
After tidying up my clothes, I hurriedly opened the door.
I saw several people standing outside.
"Greetings to the Queen, Your Highness the King of Han."
"I've seen Divine Doctor Sun." Xu Zhen saluted the three of them.
Sun Simiao also brought a student, carrying a medicine basket, to salute Xu Zhen.
"How is the British Duke?" Queen Changsun asked.
"It's still the same." Xu Zhen shook his head.
"Aunt, let's go in and take a look." Zhao Chen said to Queen Changsun.
We've all arrived at the door, so we have to go in and take a look.
"Guys, please come in quickly."
"Butler, bring tea." Xu Zhen quickly invited a few people in and ordered the butler to bring tea.
Several people entered the room and saw Xu Shiji lying on the bed, staring blankly at the curtain above.
"Father, the Queen, the King of Han, and Dr. Sun are all here." Xu Zhen walked to the bed and whispered to Xu Shiji.
Xu Shiji's eyes moved.
After looking at a few people, his eyes returned to their previous appearance.
Sun Simiao was stunned for a moment. He had only seen this look on dying people.
"Divine Doctor Zhao, it's more troublesome."
"The British Lord is about to lose his life." Sun Simiao whispered to Zhao Chen.
Zhao Chen nodded and said to Xu Zhen: "Mr. Xu, there is medicine here. You can fry it yourself."
"Aunt, you must be tired after walking for so long. Please sit in the yard and rest for a while."
Sun Simiao's boy handed the medicine to Xu Zhen.
Xu Zhen knew that Zhao Chen wanted to get away from him, so he took the medicine and said, "I'll be there right away."
Queen Changsun nodded and exited the room.
There were only three people left in the room, Zhao Chen, Sun Simiao and his boy.
Plus an almost lifeless Xu Shiji.
"Commander Xu, yesterday Goguryeo's envoy Tie Qingwen left Chang'an and returned to Goguryeo to resume his duties."
"If there are no accidents, Shacheng will belong to Datang in half a year."
"I also got some information about Yeon Gae So-moon's sudden peace talks."
"There are problems within Goguryeo. There are a group of people who want Yeon Gaesomun to step down. During this time, Yeongaesomun needs to resolve their internal affairs."
"That's why we negotiated peace."
"According to my estimation, it will take about a year at most before Yeon Gaesooun will completely control Goguryeo."
"By then, Shacheng will definitely be back in the hands of Yeon Gaesowun again."
"The border city of the Tang Dynasty is four hundred miles away from Shacheng. I am afraid that none of the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty who will be responsible for defending Shacheng will be able to come back."
Zhao Chen spoke slowly, as if he was just talking about an ordinary thing.
Xu Shiji's eyes flickered twice.
Then it dimmed again.
He thought that now that he was like this, how could he care about the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty on the border?
Zhao Chen frowned. He obviously didn't expect that Xu Shiji was now in a state of despair.
Sun Simiao also frowned.
What Zhao Chen just said obviously stimulated Xu Shiji.
But Xu Shiji soon regained his composure.
"If Shacheng is returned to our territory of the Tang Dynasty, our army of the Tang Dynasty that is currently on the front line will definitely be ordered to guard it."
"That guy Qin Huaiyu is on the front line now. I'm particularly worried about his situation now."
"Tell me, if Qin Huaiyu also dies, will Uncle Qin's family not even have any descendants in the future?" Zhao Chen's voice sounded again.
Xu Shiji closed his eyes and glanced inside the bed.
"This..." Sun Simiao was a little confused.
He even wondered whether Xu Shiji was really hopeless.
"Commander Xu, please have a good rest." Zhao Chen said, asking Xu Shiji to have a good rest.
Then he winked with Sun Simiao.
Sun Simiao followed him out in confusion, the door closed, and Queen Changsun came over immediately.
"How's it going?" Queen Changsun asked.
Sun Simiao didn't know how to speak. In his opinion, Zhao Chen's so-called treatment was of no use at all.
"The effect is good, I have already thought of a way." Zhao Chen nodded and said with a smile.
"Does Divine Doctor Zhao have a solution?"
"There was obviously no movement from the British public just now!" Sun Simiao looked at Zhao Chen with some confusion.
Zhao Chen and Xu Shiji talked so much, but Xu Shiji turned his head to the side.
He clearly didn't want to listen to what Zhao Chen had to say.
How could there be a way to do this?
Queen Changsun also looked at Zhao Chen, waiting for Zhao Chen's explanation.
"Commander Xu is still concerned about the situation of the soldiers on the front line."
"After all, he has lived and died with the frontline soldiers for so long."
"Commander Xu doesn't want to see them die in Shacheng in vain."
"This is why Commander Xu's eyes reacted when I mentioned Shacheng." Zhao Chen explained to the two of them.
Sun Simiao nodded.
Xu Shiji did have some movement at that time, but didn't it disappear again later?
Furthermore, Zhao Chen could not change the fact that the two countries had negotiated peace.
