A few months ago, Li Shimin finally agreed to marry the Xinxing princess to the true pearl Khan Yi Nan of Xue Yantuo's department, which made Yi Nan very happy.

But he couldn't wait to give the dowry, and only after the dowry could his heart be steady.

However, Xue Yantuo has always raised sheep, horses, and cattle for a living, and he really didn't know what to give to Datang as a dowry gift, so he really didn't have anything to offer.

And it has always been necessary for the man to discuss before giving the woman a dowry, and the woman can put forward various conditions and ask the man to give the woman the specified dowry, but the dowry required by the man must not be too much. At least the man has to have something to offer.

In Li Shimin's heart, he actually looked down on Zhenzhu Khan Yinan, and originally didn't want to agree to the other party's marriage proposal, so for the first time, Zhenzhu Khan Yinan sent his third uncle to apologize with 3,000 good horses, and when he asked for marriage, Li Shimin sternly rejected the other party and scolded the other party.

When Zhenzhu Khan Yinan sent someone to ask for marriage for the second time, he also brought thousands of horses and camels, Li Shimin originally insisted on disagreeing, and made peace with Zhenzhu Khan Yinan of Xue Yantuo's department, and even wanted to send 100,000 soldiers and horses to Mobei to destroy Xue Yantuo's department.

However, Shangshu's right servant shot Fang Xuanling, Chu Suiliang and other ministers, and repeatedly persuaded him that the imperial court urgently needed to recuperate with the people, and the financial resources were also very limited, so it was difficult to support the war, and harmony was the best choice.

Li Shimin thought about it again and again, and felt that what Fang Xuanling and other ministers said was also very reasonable, so he reluctantly agreed to this marriage, and decided to let Princess Xinxing marry and give Xue Yantuo's Zhenzhu Khan Yi Nan.

However, a condition was also put forward, that is, He Li must be sent back to Datang first.

What kind of people is Qibi? He was born into the family of Tiele Khan, and was the grandson of Moga Khan and the son of Mohe Lutle.

Tiele was a nomadic people from the north, and because of frequent conflicts with Tuyuhun, they moved to live in the Atami area.

His father died when he was nine years old, and he succeeded him as Khan, demoting him to the rank of Great Khan.

If ordinary people inherit the throne of Khan, they will not be able to eat, drink, and enjoy life.

But he didn't, and gave up the position of khan.

In the fourth year of Zhenguan, after the Tang Dynasty eliminated the Eastern Turks, the states in the Western Regions were shaken, and the power of Tiele gradually became stronger.

On the second day of the first month of November in the sixth year of Zhenguan, because of the strength of the Tang Dynasty, Qibi He Li and his mother led more than 1,000 tribes to Shazhou to surrender to the Tang Dynasty.

Li Shimin, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, issued an edict to place them between Gansu and Liangzhou, appointed Qibi He Li as the general of the left leading army, and named his mother as Mrs. Guzang, and his younger brother Qibi Shamen as the governor of Helanzhou.

This is definitely not an ordinary courtesy, and he was awarded such a high official position as soon as he surrendered, and the mind of the Khan on this day is not comparable to that of ordinary emperors.

In terms of the means of subjugating various ethnic minorities, Li Shimin's methods are very remarkable, and the use of carrots and sticks is perfect, and all ethnic groups are convinced by Li Shimin, so he has become a well-deserved Khan.

He Li was also impressed by Li Shimin, moved to tears, was very excited, and made a vow never to rebel against Tang.

In the eighth year of Zhenguan, that is, the third year of the surrender of Qibi He Li, Li Shimin was determined to conquer Tuyuhun.

He appointed Li Jing as the presidential leader and led Hou Junji, Li Daozong, Li Daliang, Xue Wanjun, Xue Wanche and others to take the oath to go on the expedition.

At this moment, the most excited thing was Qi Bi He Li, because Qi Mo He Li could finally take revenge, so he took his own clan soldiers to join the team of the Western Expedition.

In this war, Qi Bi He Li not only saved the two brothers Xue Wanjun and Xue Wanche, but also made many exploits in the war.

A year after the start of the war, he led a team of more than 1,000 people to enter the king tent of Tuyuhun, and in addition to capturing 1,000 people, including the queen, he also brought back more than 200,000 camels, horses, cattle, and sheep.

This victory made Tang Jun very excited, and Li Shimin was overjoyed, and he trusted He Li even more. Soon he ordered Qibi He Li to serve as the guard officer of the Xuanwu Gate, inspect the affairs of the cantonment camp, and marry the daughter of the clan, the county lord of Lintao, to him.

In the sixteenth year of Zhenguan, when Qibi He Li returned to Liangzhou Province, many people in the tribe wanted to belong to their fellow tribe Xue Yantuo, and the Xue Yantuo tribe was already strong at this time, so they took him and his mother and younger brother to Xue Yantuo.

When the news reached Chang'an, there was an uproar in the court. Most people think that Qi Bi He Li will definitely betray the Tang Dynasty, because the concept that non-my race will have a different heart is still deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

But Li Shimin disagreed, he said: "What strength is like iron and stone, he will not carry me." ”

Li Shimin has an inexplicable trust in Qi Bi He Li, he believes that Qi Bi He Li sincerely wants to return to the Tang Dynasty, and it is impossible to betray him.

In fact, after Khibi He Li arrived at the big tent of Xue Yantuo Khan, instead of cooperating, he scolded him. He drew his sword and shouted to the east: "How can there be a martyr of the Tang Dynasty who is humiliated by the court?" ”

Then cut off his left ear and swore that he would never betray Tang.

This sudden appearance made everyone present stunned, and even made Xue Yantuo Zhenzhu Khan Yinan, who wanted to kill Qi Bi He Li for a while, but was dissuaded by his own concubine.

On the other hand, after Li Shimin learned of the performance of Qi Bi He Li, it happened that the Zhenzhu Khan Yinan of the Xue Yantuo Department sent someone to Chang'an to ask for marriage again, Li Shimin thought about it again and again, and agreed to marry the Xinxing princess to the Zhenzhu Khan Yinan of the Xue Yantuo Department, but at the same time, he also asked the other party to send the Qi He Li back.

This time, the Zhenzhu Khan Yinan of the Xue Yantuo Department specially sent an envoy to send He Li back to the Tang Dynasty, and by the way, asked about the matter of hiring a marriage.

For his own sake, the emperor did not hesitate to give his daughter to the true pearl Khan Yinan of Xue Yantuo's department, which really moved Qi Bi He Li, and he couldn't wait to die for the emperor immediately.

As soon as he saw Li Shimin, he knelt on the ground and cried bitterly: "The minister is sorry for Your Majesty, you have not restrained your own people, and you have not even restrained your relatives, and I ask Your Majesty to let the minister apologize for his sins with death." ”

"Manly man, what are you crying about? Hurry up and speak.

It's not your fault that it's going to rain and my mother is going to get married, I only know that you are my courtier, loyal to me, never double-minded, and never thought of betraying me, these are enough. Li Shimin said generously.

"However, one of them is the minister's mother, and the other is the minister's younger brother, and they are deeply favored by the emperor but do not want to serve His Majesty, and the minister cannot escape the blame!" Qi Qi He Li said very guiltily.

His younger brother and mother, as well as his clansmen, all stayed in the Xue Yantuo Department and did not return to the Tang Dynasty with Qibi He Li.

"They are used to living on the grassland, that's their business, I don't blame you, I don't blame you, I won't mention this matter in the future."

The two chatted for a while, and the matter of Qibi He Li after Xue Yantuo talked about this marriage again.

"Your Majesty! Don't marry Xue Yantuo's True Pearl Khan Yinan, that will only promote the rapid development of Xue Yantuo's department, speed up Xue Yantuo's unification of all tribes in the grassland, and sooner or later he will become the second Eastern Turkic Jieli Khan, threatening the security of the Tang Dynasty. Qi Bi He Li hurriedly dissuaded and said.

"But I have already agreed to the other party, and I have told the world, how can I go back on my word, wouldn't that make the world laugh at me, laugh at the Tang Dynasty, and don't have the bearing of a great country." Li Shimin shook his head and said.

Although Li Shimin didn't want to continue and marry Xue Yantuo, as the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, how could he not believe what he had already said.

"Of course it's not good to refuse directly, but Your Majesty can make things difficult for the other party in the matter of the dowry, if the other party can't do it, or if it makes Your Majesty dissatisfied, Your Majesty regrets this marriage again, and the people of the world will have nothing to say."
