The two people who were brought into the council hall smiled innocently: "Give your uncles a salute."

After greeting him, Duan Zhan knelt down as soon as his legs weakened: "Your Majesty, the Turks sent a messenger to beg for surrender, and now they are waiting at the city gate, and the last general will come to pay tribute."

"Begging? After snatching all the food we eat, we are now here to beg for surrender, how can there be such a good thing, no, I don't agree with this matter" The general who brought the two of them in burst out loud, scaring both of them.

Everyone in the audience looked at it, and they all saw a little joy in each other's eyes, and Li Shimin personally stopped the yellow-faced general: "Uncle Bao has worked hard, you were not here just now, we are discussing the matter of peace, the current situation, it is difficult to explain, you two boys have listened to it for a long time, each has ten boards, the prince is injured, write it down for you first, listen to state secrets, and the courage has fattened you."

The yellow-faced general is Qin Qiong Qin Shubao, the current general of Zuo Wuwei, and Cheng Yanjin, whose distance from Chang'an is also the closest, so after Cheng Yanjin guarded the bridge first, Qin Qiong, who arrived second, took on the task of exploring horses, and constantly sent elites to find out the news, until the Turks gathered together this morning, and then came to reply.

Li Chengyang and the two were carried out with a sad face, and it didn't take long for a little eunuch to catch up and tell Duan Zan to go after the torture was over, and the Turkic envoy called over, and then continued to garrison the city tower without delay.

Duan Zan was beaten here and didn't mention it first, just saying that the news brought by Duan Zan in the council hall set off a new round of enthusiasm.

"Your Majesty, since Najieli is the first to beg to surrender, then our conditions can still be mentioned above, Shubao just said that he has been captive a lot of people, just take this opportunity to bring them all back, can be replaced by one" The eldest grandson Wuji still opened his mouth first, don't look at him now, he doesn't have any real power now, but he still firmly occupies the first place in Li Shimin's henchman.

"Uncle Bao, how many people have been captured by Jieli's side, have you counted the spies you sent out" Li Shimin nodded, turned his head and asked Qin Qiong.

Qin Qiong clenched his fists, and his teeth kept clicking: "There are about 80,000, and the rest of the grain and cloth are countless, basically every horse is not empty, Your Majesty, the minister still asks for his life to fight with the Turks, and the last general is willing to be the vanguard, our people are really miserable."

Li Shimin patted his family's shoulder comfortingly, and bent down to help him up: "I know that you are uncomfortable in your heart, how can I be stable in my heart, they are all my people of the Tang Dynasty, and their suffering and disaster are my responsibility, but the overall situation is like this, I have to compromise and seek perfection, I promise, within five years, we will send troops to the grassland, completely wipe out Jieli, and then we will still take you as the vanguard."

Qin Qiong's face was still not angry, and she wanted to say something, but she was pulled over by her old brother Cheng Yanjin: "Big brother, come here, look, this is the ...... thing."

After Qin Qiong understood the things inside, he could be regarded as understanding Li Shimin's difficulties, not that he didn't fight, but he really couldn't fight, his eyes everywhere were staring at it, Li Shimin had been on the throne for two months, and some of the places in the courtyard had not even received the news that the throne had been replaced, and the foundation was shallow, and this situation really couldn't fight to the death with the Turks in peace.

comforted Qin Qiong, and everyone discussed together how to get the greatest benefits.

Before the arrival of the Turkic envoys, an agreement was finally reached, the center was the first to be the people, the second was a large number of cattle and horses, and the rest depended on Li Shimin's play.

The messenger came, and as soon as he handed the letter of descent, he began to explain the meaning of Jieli:

"I'm guilty, Datang is so kind to me, not only did I not form an alliance with Datang, but I even raised troops to invade, but this is not my khan's fault, I am not as smart as you Li Shimin, and I don't have your means of turning the clouds and rain, my people are used to it, I will definitely clean them up when I go back, now I have finally stabilized the situation, and I am almost about to withdraw, you see if you want to talk, I have taken the initiative to surrender, and you will go down if you give you a step, so it is good for everyone."

The Turkic language is different from the Chinese dialect, and the envoy muttered something roughly like this, it is not Jieli's idea to attack the Tang Dynasty, and you don't want the looted materials, even if you take advantage of it, you can take it when you see it.

Everyone in the field is a human spirit, so naturally they will not take such a simple provocation seriously, if they want to fight, they will fight a long time ago, and what kind of messenger will be sent, this is just a small means that Jieli is preparing to raise some chips for himself, and he can't enter the hall of elegance.

"When do you Khan plan to negotiate, have you ever explained the time" Li Shimin didn't read the surrender letter, and asked the envoy with a letter.

"Our Khan said that it is best to negotiate tonight, and the results can be negotiated tomorrow, so that it is convenient for both parties, Tang Huang, listen well, we grassland people have never been afraid of you, and if you can't fight, you will fight a dozen, and our Khan also plans to try it on you" The front is the meaning of Jieli, and the latter envoy seems to have added some of his own opinions.

Those who can be sent as envoys are naturally not afraid of death, and those who are not afraid of death also have a title, called Ertunzi.

The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were naturally too lazy to worry about a stunned man, and politely found someone to change the clothes of the envoy, and arranged for someone to send the envoy out of the city.

Li Shimin smiled with satisfaction, and wrote a letter, which is much simpler than Jieli's dense letters:

"Tomorrow at noon, in the middle of the bridge, you and I will negotiate in person from one generation to another, and we will not wait for the expiration."

Dried and wrapped the letter, handed it to the envoy who had just finished changing his clothes, and waved his hand to summon the Xuanjia just now to arrange for him to send the envoy out.

Jieli said that tonight's negotiations, of course Li Shimin understood what he meant, the Turks could no longer hold on, how early and as early as they could, if it weren't for the fear that the Turkic dogs would jump off the wall in a hurry, he really wanted to hang Jieli for ten days and eight days, and rub the spirit of cooperation.

When the envoy left, he began to discuss some details again, trying to get the most benefit.

The envoy was escorted all the way back to the city wall by the Xuanjia army, and Li Chengyang at this time had just brought Duan Zan back, and even if the ten plates were lightly beaten, they still caused some damage, and Duan Zan didn't want to jump around for the time being.

"Why do you say I'm so miserable, I just dodged dozens of boards a while ago, and I'll come back again, Your Highness, I said that you are not me, as long as I am with you, I will have no good fruit to eat" Duan Zan was lying on the city gate tower and complained, Li Chengyang looked at the direction of Weishui and replied without looking back:

"I'm just defeating you, you can't hide yet, what's the matter, you can still rebel, I will have a good life with you in the future, and I will never forget you in my life."

Duan Zhan wailed and stopped moving, and after a while, he pulled Li Chengyang:

"Hey, look, is it the Turkic Sun thief, why did he change his clothes, Your Majesty is really generous, and it's hard to clean him up for a while."

Li Chengyang looked back and was happy: "Don't think so, maybe this is a good thing, escorting envoys is such a thing, ordinary eunuchs will do it, don't you see that is Xuanjia, this must be sent by the father to bring the words, maybe it can make you have a good time."

Sure enough, when he arrived at the city tower, Xuanjia put down the envoy and came up:

"Your Highness, General Cheng ordered to teach this person a long lesson, just don't kill anyone", and then repeated what the envoy said in its original form.

"Bang" Duan Zan slapped the city wall hard, and really let Li Chengyang say it right, this time it can be enjoyable, and he immediately got ready to think about how to deal with the envoys.

Soon the envoy was brought up, Duan Zan looked at the cowering envoy and frowned violently, pulled Li Chengyang aside and muttered:

"Does this make the minister really so hard? I was scared to pee my pants, which is completely different from his performance in the main hall, could it be that this person is possessed by a ghost? ”。

"Where did you come from, what kind of god, ghost, there is no such thing in this world, I don't know if he is so hard, but I know that there is something he must be afraid of."

Fear of heights, this can be said to be innate, no matter how great a person's ability is, once he has a fear of heights, as long as he is in a high place, no matter how powerful the tiger is, it will become a sick cat, and it is already good if his legs can stand, Li Chengyang still remembers those glass plank roads in his previous life, and countless big men were frightened to the point of being unable to roar in place.

Now this envoy is the same, he is not afraid of the main hall, but as soon as he arrives at the city wall, he begins to weaken his legs, especially after seeing Xiao Duan, he is holding the wall with his eyes closed, and he has a heroic expression on his face, which is not what a fear of heights is.

He explained to Duan Zhan what the fear of heights was, and Xiao Duan suddenly realized, and then a very ingenious idea came out uncontrollably.

At the head of the six-meter-high Chang'an City, a two-meter-long rope hangs a person, swinging sharply from left to right.

Duan Zan and Li Chengyang cooperated, Duan Zan kept explaining at the head of the city, while Li Chengyang was pulling the rope in the back, and the Turkic envoys kept shaking like a pendulum clock when they were retracted and shrunk.

"Lord Envoy, our rope is stuck, it can't go up or down, you wait a little, it's okay right away, if you can't hold on, you can let go, this place is not high, rest assured, at most you will be crippled, there will be no danger to your life" Duan Zan stretched out his head and kept "pacifying" the envoy.

"Squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak, rely on you to dig a few times" The envoy's frightened native language came out, squeaking and screaming below.

Duan Zan scratched his head, put his hand behind him and motioned to Li Chengyang not to stop, but there were words on his lips: "What are you saying, Lord Envoy, I don't understand, please make it clear, our Datang is the most polite to the envoy, you can rest assured, I promise to send you down completely."

"Wo Shuo, first, put the nest first, spicy up" The envoy held back for a long time before he said a Chinese sentence.

"What? Pull you up? No, this is stuck, you can't pull it up, you are waiting, at most a stick of incense will be enough, insist on it" Duan Zan signaled to Li Chengyang and asked him to continue, working harder.

"It's almost, it's really scaring people for a while, and if you fall down, it will really kill you, just enjoy it" Li Chengyang came up at some point, looked at the situation below and said to Duan Zhan.

Duan Zan touched his chin and posed as a man in his clothes: "There really is such a person, this is the first time I've seen it, the iron-clad man is scared of this virtue, so I don't feel sorry at all, and even want to laugh a little" Duan Zan touched his chin and put on a tall look.

Li Chengyang took a closer look at the envoy's situation, loosened the rope easily, and put the person down: "Okay, see if he pees again, let's stop here today, sooner or later there will be a chance to toss in the future."

When the envoy reached the ground, he ran away, and he didn't even have time to call the envoy who had brought him.

Duan Zan looked at the envoy who was away thoughtfully, and touched Li Chengyang: "You say, where did he get so much urine."
