And where is the biggest crisis right now? It's not the Turks, with the strength of Chang'an alone, although it is impossible to defeat the Turks outside the city, it is still no problem to hold Chang'an.

They must reach an agreement with Li Yuanji, the king of Qi, before the Turks arrive in Chang'an, although the king of Qi has lost power, but the world belongs to the king of Qi and Li Jiancheng, and Li Yuan's forces are not in the minority, Hebei and Bingzhou are Li Yuanji's base, as long as Li Yuanji is persuaded to go out of the mountain, the worries of the two states can be solved in an instant, and the other states in the world will not dare to disobey the yang and the yin, and the forces of the imperial court can be liberated, as short as a few days, as long as more than a month, the imperial court can mobilize at least 200,000 troops to fight to the death with the Turks in Chang'an.

As for why Li Yuanji, not Emperor Li Yuan? The question is simpler.

There is no need to even make a delicate analysis, almost all Li Shimin groups will choose to let Li Yuanji come forward, first, the effect is better, and second, the threat is smaller.

The change of Xuanwu Gate Li Yuan passively handed over the power to Li Shimin, but Li Yuan, who can conquer the Tang Dynasty, how can he be the kind of mediocre and unscrupulous master? A monarch who does not have a high level of imperial skill cannot achieve final success.

Li Shimin has indeed made great contributions in previous wars, but no matter how great Li Shimin's merits are, they can't compare to Li Yuan, and Li Yuan still has a large number of generals and officials loyal to him around him, so Li Shimin didn't dare to touch Li Yuan, for fear that if something happened to Li Yuan, his subordinates would immediately fight back.

And Li Yuan, as the emperor, as long as he gains freedom and announces that it is not what Li Shimin wants, then the result is very clear, and Li Shimin will definitely be defeated.

Li Shimin's group is very strong, but he is still not stronger than Li Yuan, Li Jiancheng, Li Yuanji, and the sum of the four factions of the neutral faction.

If Li Yuan is asked to come forward to solve this problem, simply passing the edict will not work, because everyone knows that Li Yuan is imprisoned in the Taiji Palace, and the only way to let Li Yuan come out is to let people know that this is the order he ordered.

But who knows, after solving the disaster of the Turks going south, will Li Yuan give them a pot?

Coupled with the unexpected situation that happened to Li Shimin this time, the final result is unknown for the time being, once Li Yuan's power is caught, Li Shimin, including all the generals under Li Shimin's command, whether it is a confidant or an ordinary subordinate, no one will be able to live at that time.

Compared with Li Yuan, Li Yuanji's threat is not so great.

First of all, Li Yuanji's freedom of movement has not been restricted, at least on the surface, it can be seen that the brothers are in harmony.

Bingzhou is Li Yuanji's old nest, where he has worked hard for many years, although it is deserted. Lewd. There is no way, but Li Yuanji is still very good to his generals, so until now, Li Shimin has never been able to enter the state.

Hebei has been divided by Li Shimin, but the effect is not obvious, a lot of direct or indirect evidence shows that they are just superficial refuge, and some people secretly continue to be loyal to Li Yuanji or Li Jiancheng.

There are also threats, but Li Yuanji's sphere of influence is limited to these two places, but these two places are also very important, which can liberate tens of thousands of troops, and can even indirectly solve the problems in the surrounding areas.

What's more, as long as it is properly controlled, Wei Chi Jingde can kill Li Yuanji, the king of Qi, at any time, and solve all possible hidden dangers at any time.

"If you are not in your position, you will not seek your own government!" After considering many issues, Li Yuanji finally decided to stay put.

It's not that he doesn't care about Datang's future, compared with Datang's future, he cares more about his own life.

Although it was Wei Chi Jingde who personally asked him to go out of the mountain this time, if he really went out of the mountain like this, it would inevitably give Li Er a reason to move himself.

Unloading the mill and killing the donkey, this kind of thing is not at all for an emperor, they don't have any worries about doing it, they care more about their own status.

As for completely reassuring Li Shimin and making sure that he really has no intention of rebellion, there is only one possibility, that is, to live to old age and die in front of Li Shimin, and he did not make any rebellion until he died, nor did he make any preparations for rebellion, only at that time will Li Shimin really believe in himself.

But the feeling of putting one's fate in the hands of others is very unpleasant, I have already experienced it once, and now, I will never do such a stupid thing again.

"Your Highness, are you really willing to watch the Tang Dynasty being humiliated by the Turkic soldiers? Don't you really care? Wei Chi Jingde almost cried, he knew that this matter was not so easy, but what he didn't expect, King Qi did not refuse for the grievances he had suffered during this time, the reason for his refusal was just to not give people a reason not to kill him.

Wei Chi Jingde was very helpless, regretful, and annoyed.

But at this time, there is no other way, Li Shimin is unconscious, Li Yuan is impossible to be released, the other princes are not successful, Li Shimin's eldest son Li Chengqian is only eight years old, except for Li Yuanji, there is no suitable person in the Tang royal family at this moment to stand up.

Originally, they could get rid of Li Yuanji as well, so that there was no one in this world who could threaten Li Shimin's status, but now there was no one available, and they didn't know whether they should be happy or sad?

"I care more about the Tang Dynasty than anyone else, but what's the use of caring? For a man who thinks about how he will die every day, don't you think it's too cruel to let him pick up this beam alone? The corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a self-deprecating smile.

"Your Highness......"

Li Yuanji waved his hand, interrupting what Wei Chi Jingde was about to say next, Li Yuanji didn't want to do anything until he was safe.

Coming forward to solve the Turkic southward matter is both a crisis and an opportunity, but this is also putting fate in the hands of others, and Li Yuanji will not promise anyone anything before he meets Li Shimin, and before Li Shimin personally proposes to let him solve this trouble.

This opportunity for a crisis and an opportunity to be half apart, would you rather not, because it is a crisis? or opportunities, all in Li Shimin's thoughts.

"I will not issue orders to anyone, nor will I move any thoughts, until this matter is resolved, I will stay in this palace and never leave an inch." Even if you don't agree, you should make your position clear and do nothing, which is your biggest concession.

Of course, staying in the palace is actually to facilitate escape, once the situation is not right, you can immediately escape through the secret passage, and then leave quietly alone, and then wait for the opportunity to take revenge.

Regarding the rebellion, Li Yuanji felt that he did not have this ability, although there were people who supported him, but doing so would only make more people die.

But not rebelling does not mean that you have to endure it all the time, once you really force yourself to that step, even if it is to destroy the entire Tang Dynasty, you will assassinate all the important ministers around Li Shimin, including Li Shimin.

But that's just the last resort.

Wei Chi Jingde left the Qi Palace's mansion with a sad expression, and in a small area, the high-level of Datang can be said to be panicked at the moment, and for the first time they experienced the feeling of losing their backbone, all kinds of rules and regulations bound them, but when the crisis came, they had no choice.

That kind of helpless loneliness, Wei Chi Jingde seemed to have experienced Li Yuanji's mood during this time, depressed, and he felt that he couldn't bear it even for a day.

"Why shouldn't Your Highness allow it to come down? This matter can solve the danger of His Royal Highness, and it can also solve the danger of Datang, so that the people of Datang can avoid the flames of war. Ma Zhou, who had been lost for nearly a few hours, suddenly spoke.

Previously, Wei Chi Jingde didn't avoid anyone at all, but he didn't mean it, but the situation was so urgent that he really forgot to avoid others, but fortunately, there were only Li Yuanji and Ma Zhou in the courtyard, and there was not even a subordinate, otherwise this matter might not be possible.

"At the right time, make the right choice, and do the right thing!" Thoughts were flying, but he also made an explanation, although he didn't say it explicitly, he also vaguely told Ma Zhou that now is not the time.

Ma Zhou fell silent, thinking seriously about Li Yuanji's words in his heart, is this really the case? What if it's a life-threatening situation?

"Why did Jingde come back again?" Wei Chi Jingde, who had been away for less than two minutes before, appeared at the door again, and Li Yuanji was even more puzzled, could it really be a repetition of the old trick?
