Ashnasimo and Dierosch and other officers whipped up the person lying on the snow with a whip, and scolded loudly, if you lie down for a long time, you will get sick, and if you are sick at this time, it basically means that you have said goodbye to the world.

"How long will it take to get to Iron Mountain?" Jieli took the cup that came over thoughtlessly, took a sip of milk tea, frowned and asked, "Why hasn't Mrs. sent someone to answer it?" ”

"Great Khan, now covered in snow and ice, I can't see it, and if you count the time, it will be three days away. Madame should have just received the news, and it will take time to come. Obsessiveness replied.

"Wait until you reach the Iron Mountain, Ashina Simo."

"Here, what does the Great Khan command?"

"As soon as you arrive at Iron Mountain, you will pass on my general order in the grassland, and gather in the king's tent in the spring, and we will pour all the tribes of the grassland southward to avenge today's revenge. Tell the tribes that I will give them all the seizures, and I will not give them a penny. I will definitely set foot in Chang'an, and I will watch Li Shimin kneel in front of me and beg for mercy. Jieli said fiercely with the cup in his hand.

"The Great Khan is wise, when we arrive at Tieshan, Li Jing will not dare to go deep alone, and when the time comes, we will gather the warriors on the grassland and fight again." Obsessed with the power of thought.

"Obey the Great Khan's commands." Ashina Simo also answered: "When the time comes, we will mobilize the tribes of Payegu, Khitan, Huifu, Yantuo and other tribes that are dependent on our Turks to kill back to Chang'an. Capture Li Shimin alive. ”

After another two days, Jieli, who was finally frightened, saw the Turkic team that had come to greet him, and all the wolf-fleeing horsemen wept loudly, sighing in their hearts: they had finally run home.

One by one, the flags parted to both sides, and an old woman wearing a fur hat came out of the procession, her face was full of wrinkles, and she looked at Jieli and said: "Welcome the Great Khan back to the king's tent, now the people of the steppe have the backbone." ”

Jieli was full of shame, he was able to become a khan because of Princess Yicheng, Princess Yicheng was originally his sister-in-law, after the death of Luo Khan, Princess Yicheng looked down on his son Yu She, and set up Ashina as the khan, which is Jieli. Jieli is respectful and afraid of his wife, and he is really embarrassed to return from a big defeat in Dingxiang: "Madam, I am this time... ”

Princess Yicheng said: "There is no need to feel guilty about the Great Khan, all the heroes in the world have not experienced hardships, only win or lose by results, we will rest here in the king's tent, and wait until next year to recover, and then raise an army to take revenge." ”

Jieli was very moved: "Thank you Madame for comforting, after I experienced this incident, I must learn from the pain and never take such risks in the future." After speaking, he turned his head and said to Zhi Zhizhi: "Zhao Deyan and Kang Sumi surrendered to the Tang Army, now only you can speak well, and you have been to Chang'an, and when you arrive at Tieshan, you take my letter and honor guard to Chang'an, and meet Li Shimin, just say that I Eastern Turks have offended the Tang Dynasty before, and now I know that I am wrong, and I want to attach myself to the Tang Dynasty and be the watchdog of the empire in the desert." ”

After saying this, the people around him were stunned, and the watchdog said it, what a determination the Great Khan had. I didn't want to go to Chang'an, I went to Chang'an last time when I was in the Weishui Alliance, and I was almost cut down by Li Shimin, and finally as a hostage, I was released back after Jieli retreated, and now I have to take a risk, and I want to say that the concubine can't do it. But the reality is not TV, the Great Khan called his name, and he only bowed forward: "Yes, I will definitely fulfill the Great Khan's instructions." ”

After Jieli finished speaking, he said to Ashina Simo: "What I told you on the way, you wait until you get to the Iron Mountain to rest for a few days before you set off, you must spread my words on the grassland, as long as you don't come to the king's tent, it is our Turkic enemy, and when the Tang army comes back, we will destroy their tribe." I am a friend of the Turks, and I don't want a penny for all the seizures, as long as I can breathe a sigh. ”

Princess Yicheng smiled, and the skin on her face wrinkled: "This is the Turkic leader I value, domineering and thoughtful. The rich life used to wear away your sharpness, and now life has given it back to you. ”

"Thank you Madame for your encouragement, in the future, I will be like Madame, the bedroom you told me... Crouch.. Lying on the salary and tasting the guts, first bow your head and trim it, and then go to clean up the Tang Army. ”

In the main hall, Li Shimin sat on the dragon chair with a smile on his face, and raised the battle report sent by Li Jing from eight hundred miles in front of him, and smiled: "Ladies and gentlemen, since I received the good news from the pharmacist, I am in a happy mood." ”

Fang Xuanling came out and said: "Your Majesty, the minister heard that Jieli fled north to Tieshan and sent someone to Chang'an to ask me for peace?" ”

Li Shimin laughed: "This Jieli Khan is ready to surrender, at this time, his envoy has already set off to Chang'an, and the pharmacist does not dare to deal with it, I don't know what you Aiqing thinks?" ”

Suddenly, there were bursts of whispers in the crowd, only to hear some agreeing to surrender and saying that it was to show the prestige of my Tang Dynasty, while others said that they wanted to cut the grass and eradicate the roots to avoid long nights and dreams.

"The minister thinks that the fight should be continued." Fang Xuanling said. "The Turkic wolf is ambitious, this surrender is just to paralyze my Tang Dynasty, and after he recuperates and recovers, he will definitely continue to go south, and there are countless cases recorded in the history books."

As soon as Fang Xuanling's words fell, someone immediately stood up: "Your Majesty, this move is not allowed, it will damage the prestige of my Tang Dynasty, my Tang Dynasty is a ceremonial state, and there is a way that the kingdom should be subdued by virtue, how can it be so killed?" ”

Fang Xuanling, as the prime minister, naturally disdains such a rotten Confucian. But Li Shimin couldn't ignore it, so he had to speak: "Tang Jian, what you said makes sense. ”

Tang Jian's face was white and beardless, and he looked a little old and white: "Your Majesty, in ancient times, my Central Plains was a foreign king and an internal saint, they violated us, as long as we taught us a lesson, and then we had to use "benevolence" to them, so that the barbarians would also be moved by us, as the so-called... ”

"The so-called fart, you go to reason with the barbarians, and people give you a knife, talk about a fart. Confucianism. I don't know who can't listen to it anymore, so I snorted below.

"It's really insulting, the emperor, please let the imperial history teach this kind of arrogant people above the main hall a lesson." Tang Jianqi's seven-trick smoke was ridiculed so much.

Then the main peace faction and the main battle faction quarreled again. Li Shimin listened to it for a while, and his mind was swollen, and he made a decision directly: "Okay, don't quarrel, since Jieli has sent someone to talk, let's go and listen to what they have to say, I don't know who is willing to be this peace envoy?" ”

There was silence in the main hall. This is too dangerous, it's cold to go to the desert, and to the Turkic king's tent, if you don't come back, you will become Su Wu. At this time, Tang Jian came out and said: "The minister is willing to go and negotiate peace with the Turks for His Majesty." ”

Li Shimin pondered for a moment before he slowly spoke: "Tang Aiqing, as a Hongluqing, is qualified enough to be a member of the third grade. I will give you the honor guard of the Son of Heaven again, and strengthen you to fight. General An Xiuren escorted you to the Turks"

"Thank you, Your Majesty."
