Li Shimin had already made up his mind to appease the grassland people at this time, and in order to create a gentle atmosphere, he decided to meet Yi Nan here.

Soon, Tang Fei led a tall steppe man in, he was Yi Nan.

Yi Nan is in his thirties, with a hooked nose and a red face, and his appearance is also handsome, but his eyes are cold and uncomfortable.

At this time, Li Shimin was playing happily with his two daughters, and the shuttlecock was flying in the air and could not fall for a long time.

Tang Fei and Yi Nanhou were on the side, enjoying the performance of Li Shimin and his daughters.

Li Leling and Li Li were wearing princess clothes, and when they kicked the shuttlecock, their posture swayed, showing their daughter's charm.

Yi Nan's eyes were staring at Li Leling, and his hungry wolf-like gaze swam on her body from time to time, especially the snow-white ravines exposed on Li Leling's bandeau chest attracted his attention even more.

At this moment, Li Shimin kicked straight with a big foot, and the shuttlecock flew high, over the top of Li Leling's head, and flew to Yi Nan's feet.

Li Leling giggled and came to pick it up, but was picked up by Yi Nan first and given to Li Leling.

Li Leling saw the grassland people in front of her staring at her, and she was a little dissatisfied, she glared at Yi Nan, grabbed the shuttlecock and left.

At this time, Li Shimin saw Yi Nan, and he said, "It's Yi Nan." ”

Yi Nan stepped forward and saluted and said, "Chen Yi Nan, I have seen Tian Khan." ”

Li Shimin took the sweat towel handed over by Wang De, wiped his sweat, and said to Yi Nan: "Yi Nan, you came to Chang'an this time, is there anything wrong?" ”

Yi Nan came to test Li Shimin's attitude this time, he originally wanted to ask Li Shimin for food, but at this moment, he had a new idea.

He pointed at Li Leling and said, "Your Majesty, Princess Xincheng is not in good health, and after giving birth to a daughter, she will not be able to have children." The minister asked His Majesty to marry this princess to the minister. ”

"What?" Li Shimin was immediately very angry.

Princess Xincheng is his half-sister of Li Shimin, Yi Nan married Princess Xincheng and then married his own children, isn't this a slap in the face of Li Shimin?

Li Shimin said very unhappily: "Let's talk about this matter later, let's stop here today, and I will summon you in a few days." ”

Yi Nan saluted and left.

Li Shimin looked at Yi Nan's back, and his eyes showed disgust.

Li Leling already had a sweetheart at this time, he was Wang Jingzhi, one of the four great ministers in the early Tang Dynasty in history, and Wang Gui, who is currently the Huangmen Shilang.

At this moment, she heard Yi Nan asking Li Shimin to marry him to this hateful grassland man, but Li Shimin did not refuse him on the spot.

Li Leling was suddenly frightened.

She knelt at Li Shimin's feet, hugged his legs and cried: "Father, the son is unwilling to marry that grassland man, please ask my father to reject him." ”

At this time, the war between Annam Province in the south and Tuyuhun in the west was unresolved, and if the steppe people in the north were added, it would be difficult for the Tang Dynasty to bear it.

Li Shimin did not make up his mind in his heart, this matter was very important, and he had to discuss it with the ministers.

He said to Li Leling: "Get up, crying, what do you look like?" After saying that, he brushed his sleeves and left.

Li Leling sat on the ground, crying heartbreakingly, but she suppressed it and didn't dare to cry.

Honglu Temple Guest House.

Bo Tie is the head of Yi Nan's royal court, 28 years old this year, with a sharp beak and monkey cheeks, he complimented Yi Nan: "Khan, you ask Li Shimin for marriage today, this trick is too powerful." ”

Yi Nan smiled: "Tell me, where is the power?" ”

The blog post said: "First, you can test Li Shimin's attitude.

The minister heard that the Tang Dynasty was going to implement the national policy of appeasing the people and calming them, and they wanted to avoid conflicts with neighboring countries as much as possible.

If you ask him for a kiss, and if he agrees, you will be able to test his attitude towards you, Khan, and you must try to avoid conflict with us. You can open your mouth and ask him for more benefits. For example, asking for food, salt and iron and other materials to accompany the marriage.

If he gives it to us, he will continue to ask him for things, and if he endures the first step, he will endure the second and third steps, otherwise, all his previous efforts will be in vain.

In this way, we can get as many benefits as possible.

Second, when the princess of the Tang Dynasty married into our grassland, there was one more hostage. Li Shimin, you are even more embarrassed by the Khan.

The Khan can seize this opportunity to instigate the steppe people who had previously moved into the interior of the Tang Dynasty to return to the grassland and strengthen our strength. ”

After the Tang Dynasty destroyed the Eastern Turks, it moved some of the Eastern Turks from the former Li Li Department to the Hetao Plain and other places.

Yi Nan smiled: "You are right. However, what if Li Shimin doesn't agree to marry the princess to me? ”

Bo Tie said: "That's just right, originally we had the intention of preparing to unite the Tiele Department and the Qibi Department and go south to fight the bone grass, doesn't this just give us an excuse?" ”

"Hahahaha", Yi Nan laughed proudly.

He said: "Very good, let's bully and bully him." ”

Early the next morning, Bo Tie took the notebook and handed it to Tang Fei, the secretary of Honglu Temple, and officially put forward a request to marry the princess of the Tang Dynasty.

Yi Nan really fell in love with Li Leling, and asked to marry her by name.

This incident caused a lot of discussion between the government and the opposition.

In these discussions, there are all kinds of opinions, but those who support peace account for the majority, after all, why not sacrifice other people's daughters in exchange for peace?!

In the past few days, Li Shimin has solicited the opinions of Fang Xuanling, the eldest grandson Wuji, Wei Zheng and many ministers, but because it was Li Shimin's daughter who went to kiss him, everyone did not express their opinions much.

However, their attitudes are very clear, they are all supportive and pro-friendly.

This can't be blamed on them entirely, after all, the current situation is too unfavorable for Datang.

Li Shimin specially convened a court meeting, and as a result, everyone's opinions were similar, basically supporting and pro-friendly.

At that time, the army that exhausted its strength once came to the city of Chang'an and forced the Tang Dynasty to sign the Weishui Alliance.

In 626 A.D., the Eastern Turkic Jieli Khan of the steppe sent more than 100,000 troops to Chang'an. The army was stationed in the north of Weishui Bridge outside the city, only forty miles away from Chang'an City, the capital was empty, Chang'an was under martial law, and the people were panicked.

Li Shimin was forced to empty the treasury, give Jieli gold and silk property, signed a peace agreement, the two sides beheaded the White Horse Alliance, and the Turks led the army to retreat. This is the famous "Weishui Alliance".

Everyone doesn't want to see hundreds of thousands of grassland iron horsemen, once again staged a scene of soldiers besieging Chang'an.

Li Shimin is wise and martial, and in the face of the cruel reality, he has to bow his noble head.

He really wanted to mobilize the whole army and teach Yi Nan, the hateful steppe wolf, a hard lesson, but the ministers did not support it, and he was helpless.

At this time, Li You only took a few guards such as Baihu and Wang San, changed horses without changing people, and went straight to Chang'an day and night.

On this day, in the woods behind Cheng'en Temple, Li Leling hugged his lover Wang Jingzhi and cried bitterly.

Wang Jingzhi was very sad, but helpless, he looked at the jade man in his arms, his heart was like a knife, and he was speechless.
