Looking at Li Shimin's troops from Taiyuan, the enemies he defeated all the way, Guanzhong Sui Army, Liu Wuzhou, Du Fuwei, Wang Shichong, all have a number of enemy civil and military forces that fill the current Tiance Mansion, and there is no difference from the generals who followed Li Shimin from Taiyuan.

This has proved that Li Shimin has enough open-mindedness and bearing, and the bearded guest has decided to start negotiations on peaceful reunification with Li Shimin.

"General Luo Cheng, you go and inform Li Shimin, after I return to Wagang, I will immediately send someone to discuss with him about the merger of the two armies, I hope he will make preparations as soon as possible, and the most important thing is the distribution of official positions, not to seek preferential treatment, but to seek fairness.

After informing Li Shimin, you will stay with Li Shimin and contact in the center."

The bearded guest came to Guanzhong this time, and there were not many people with him, but all of them were good players, including Luo Cheng and Shan Xiongxin, as long as Li Shimin did not deliberately plot, there would be no problems with safety.

"Yes. Luo Chenglang agreed, patted his horse and left, and went straight to Tiance Mansion.

"I only hope that the negotiations can be successful as soon as possible, and the people will be peaceful, the world has been chaotic for long enough. ”

The bearded guest sighed, and took Shan Xiongxin and a group of people to move in the direction of Tongguan, preparing to go out of the pass and return to Wagang, just thirty miles away from Tongguan Maweipo, Shan Xiongxin suddenly reined in his horse, listened for a while, and said to the bearded guest: "Your Majesty, it's not good, there is a large force of cavalry approaching." ”

"Cavalry? If there is cavalry here, it can only be Li Tang's army. "The bearded man said.

"Could it be that Li Shimin is untrustworthy and wants to besiege His Majesty?"

The bearded man shook his head: "Impossible, if Li Shimin wants to besiege and kill me, we can do it when we enter the customs half a month ago." ”

A large number of cavalry rushed from the left and right directions, and the Wagang army and the others had not seen the other party's banner clearly, a round of arrow rain had already been shot, and the black and suppressed sharp arrows covered the sky and the sun, and Shan Xiongxin shouted urgently: "Protect Your Majesty." ”

……

"King Qin, the conditions of my emperor. Do you hear me?

In the palace of the king of Qin, Luo Cheng told Li Shimin about the request of the bearded guest, Li Shimin was overjoyed when he learned that the bearded guest was willing to negotiate peace, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed when he was very deep in the city, and laughed and said: "Emperor Qi thinks of the common people in the world." The willingness to start peace negotiations is really a blessing for the common people and a blessing for the Han people.

The requirements put forward are not any conditions, they are a matter of course, and after the peaceful reunification, all official positions above the fourth rank will be decided through consultation, and the fourth rank or less. Based on the local status quo, if there is any objection, join the second round of negotiations to enter the city.

General Luo Cheng, do you think so?"

"That's very good. Luo Cheng replied, Li Shimin's answer was exactly what the bearded guest wanted.

Li Shimin nodded: "In this way, General Luo Cheng will be a guest in the Qin Palace, and this king will enter the palace to report to his father...... Come. Entertain General Luo Cheng well, and there must be no slackness. The Qin Wangfu let General Luo walk out and enter, and there must be no obstruction. ”

"Yes. The two soldiers agreed, and Li Shimin strode out.

……

When Li Shimin entered the main hall, Li Yuan was instructing the two ministers, and when he saw Li Shimin coming, a smile immediately appeared on his face. He said to the two ministers, "Go ahead and do it at once." ”

"Yes. ”

After the two ministers stepped back, Li Shimin saluted Li Yuan and asked Li Yuan with a smile: "Father, why are you so happy?"

"Shimin, you did a good job this time. If I win the world in the Tang Dynasty, you will be the first to do it. Li Yuan walked down the steps, supported Li Shimin affectionately, looked up and down, and was very proud of having such a capable son.

Li Shimin looked at Li Yuan in surprise: "My father already knows, my son is about to report this matter to my father, Qi has promised to negotiate with us, we should now convene the ministers, immediately draw up a negotiation charter, contact the Qi country, and arrange negotiations." ”

Li Yuan laughed, waved his hand proudly and said, "No need to negotiate, I have already sent your eldest brother to lead troops to arrest Zhang Zhongjian, and now the Emperor of Qi is already a prisoner of my Tang Dynasty." ”

Li Shimin's smile froze on his face, he was stunned for a long time, and suddenly said loudly: "Father, what did you say? You arrested Emperor Qi?"

"What Emperor Qi, just a pseudo-emperor, I am the co-master of the world. Li Yuan snorted coldly and patted Li Shimin on the shoulder: "Don't worry about the emperor, Zhang Zhongjian is in our hands, Shen Luoyan doesn't take out a million gold and ten states of land, don't want to redeem this emperor." ”

"Father, how can you do this? Emperor Qi was invited to Guanzhong by the emperor, how can you send someone to arrest him? Then where does the prestige of our Datang remain?

What's more, Emperor Qi has already promised to negotiate peacefully for the sake of the people, and now that his father is doing this, he is not afraid that people will regret it, and peace negotiations will become a mirror again?"

Li Shimin was furious, and tried hard to suppress it so that it did not break out, his fists were clenched, and his muscles were exposed. Originally, Li Shimin did not dare to have much hope for the peace talks, and he never thought that the bearded guest would be so generous and righteous, which was a great surprise to Li Shimin.

If because of Li Yuan's actions, the negotiations broke down before they even started, Li Shimin really didn't know how to face that situation.

"Shimin, I still wonder why you deceived Zhang Zhongjian into Guanzhong, why didn't you inform me and your imperial brother? Although you are a general of Tiance, but now that the Tang Dynasty has established a country, unlike when Taiyuan raised troops, your eldest brother was the crown prince and I was the emperor, so you can't be without dignity.

As for the negotiations, there is no need at all, Wagang is a reckless regime established by a group of mud legs, all of them are selfish and greedy, and if there is no emperor as soon as the regime is established, there will be chaos.

Moreover, the economic situation of Wagang is not as good as that of my Guanzhong, relying on the treasures stolen by Yang Dong's little mongrel from Yang Gong's treasury to raise troops, if he takes out a million gold and ten states of land in exchange for Zhang Zhongjian, I don't think Wagang will be able to support it for long.

Our Li Tang strength is not as good as that of Pseudo-Qi, but Zhang Zhong is too stupid to send it to the door, my Datang will dominate the world just around the corner, and what else can I negotiate with that group of mud legs. ”

"Father. Li Shimin exhaled loudly and said angrily: "Is this the reason why you must do this? Father, have you ever thought that even if Wagang loses a million gold, what will happen to the land of the ten states?

I don't know how many years it will take, and how many people will die in the war?"

"If you want to create a great cause, you can't do it without sacrifice. Li Yuan saw that Li Shimin had been contradicting him, and he was also angry, and his tone began to worsen.

"There must be sacrifice, but it is not a senseless sacrifice, we have arrested Zhang Zhongjian, there is no faith, and the hearts of the people will not be attached to it in the future, no matter how much treasure and land there is, what is the use?

What's more, I don't think Wagang will exchange the treasure land for Emperor Qi, since Emperor Qi has come to Guanzhong, with Shen Luoyan's wisdom, he will not think of the current situation.

If Wagang had already planned to re-establish a new king, what would we do? Will we lose our faith and fight hard against Wagang? Are we opponents?" )
