"Your Majesty, according to the report from the scouts, the Turks have already pulled out of camp and are ready to retreat." A middle-level military attache said excitedly.

Li Shimin also breathed a sigh of relief, the Turks were loyal to retreat. And Li Shimin didn't know how Tang Jian and Li Junxian negotiated and how much wealth they paid to the Turks. And Li Shimin will not care, because as long as he can spend money to get peace and exchange the opportunity for peaceful development, then it will be fine. As for those floating wealth, it is not something that Li Shimin can care about. Now Li Shimin just wants to reward Tang Jian and Li Junxian, especially Li Junxian, who not only repelled the Turks, but also participated in the negotiations, which is the first merit of this war.

"Your Majesty, Chen Tang Jian is back!" Tang Jian said.

"Tang Jian? You're back? You persuaded Jieli to retire, but you have made a great contribution! Also, what about Junxian? Li Shimin asked.

"What! The minister was knocked unconscious by Li Junxian's guy, and he didn't negotiate at all! Tang Jian said.

"What? You didn't go to the negotiations? Then how did the Turks retreat? Li Shimin was very surprised.

And at this time, a Turkic ran over and went to the bottom of the tower of Chang'an City.

"Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, our Khan asked me to give you this thing!" The Turkic soldier shouted.

"Whoosh-" With a sharp sound, an arrow shot up the tower of Chang'an City and nailed it to the wooden pillar on the tower.

Everyone saw a piece of cloth on the arrow, and immediately went over and took it down. Li Shimin opened the piece of cloth and looked at it, and after a while, he actually showed a complicated gaze. And Li Shimin handed over this piece of cloth to Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, and some senior civil servants and military generals took a look, and those guys showed surprised eyes.

Then, it was the turn of those low-level civil and military attachés, and those guys showed their righteous indignation.

"Your Majesty, this Li Junxian is really a big rebellion." "Your Majesty, Li Junxian is my first rebel minister in the Tang Dynasty." "Your Majesty, you can't let Li Junxian go like this!" "Li Junxian is the first rebel in my Tang Dynasty!" ……

Those low-level civil officials and military generals all began to scold Li Junxian, as if not scolding Li Junxian was disloyal to the emperor. And Li Shimin's eyes showed a complicated look, he didn't know what to do with this Li Junxian.

At this time, Li Jing said: "Your Majesty, let's wait for Li Junxian to come back!" If Li Junxian comes back, we will question him together to see if he has any explanation. If he doesn't come back, then issue a sea fishing document and want Li Junxian in Datang for this rebellion! ”

"Okay, just do it, I want to see, does Li Junxian have any explanation? Maybe this is also Jieli's strategy to kill people with a knife! Li Shimin said with a smile.

Li Junxian slowly returned to the city tower of Chang'an City, but he was immediately invited to the city tower, and Li Shimin, who was present, as well as all the civil and military generals, and even low-level civil and military attachés were present, and they all looked at Li Junxian with questioning eyes.

"Li Junxian, when you were negotiating with Jieli, did you say anything rebellious?" A civil official said angrily.

"Did!" Li Junxian replied calmly.

Everyone glanced at each other, not knowing what was going on with Li Junxian, but he actually took the initiative to confess. Anyway, Li Junxian also knew that he had said a lot of things that were against the feudal emperor in the Turkic camp, and it was useless to deny it. If you knock out Tang Jian, you will be suspected, so it is better to admit it frankly.

"Why do you say that? Also, did the Turks frame you for anything above? ”

The civil official took out the white cloth and handed it to Li Junxian. Li Junxian looked at the white cloth, which said that it was the conversation between Li Junxian and Jieli just now, as well as the conversation between Zhao Deyan, and not a word was missed.

"That's right, there's nothing wrong with that!" Li Junxian admitted it very normally.

The Wenchen generals present were even more wide-eyed, and they didn't know why Li Junxian said this.

"Why do you say that? Is it for negotiation needs? You didn't have a penny for phone calls this time, so you let the Turks retreat. Li Jing asked.

Li Jing said this at a high level, that is, Li Junxian did this in order to let the Turks withdraw without spending a penny. And Li Jing first said that it was Li Junxian who needed to negotiate, and then named again to let the Turks withdraw without spending a penny. In this way, Li Junxian's so-called guilt can be reduced.

"I said this to protect my dignity in China. No matter what, I will not allow me to spend money to buy peace! This is my shame as a Chinese! If I need to spend money in Huaxia to buy peace, and my Datang can't protect the people of the world, then is there still a need for my Datang to exist? Li Junxian replied lightly.

Li Shimin's eyes were even wider, he didn't expect Li Junxian to say this, Li Junxian actually regarded the dignity of the Chinese nation and the interests of the people as more important than the Tang Dynasty, which was very surprising to Li Shimin. In ancient times, this theory was almost a great rebellion, a rebellious statement.

"Jun Xian, I just want to ask you, are you loyal to me, or something else." Li Shimin also asked lightly.

"Your Majesty, the minister is only loyal to the hundreds of millions of people in my Chinese land, and the minister will never allow any court to betray the national interests of my China. I'm talking about any court. ”

Li Shimin forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, he didn't expect Li Junxian to answer like this. In ancient times, they all paid attention to loyalty to the emperor or to the royal family, but Li Junxian actually said that he was loyal to hundreds of millions of people in China, which is not in line with the mainstream in ancient times. In ancient times, there was no national consciousness, in their eyes, the political axe was the country, that is, the nation, so loyalty to the emperor was loyalty to the country. But Li Junxian split this concept, the country and the nation and the political axe emperor Yanjing, which made everyone a little surprised, there is still such a statement.

"Jun Xian, aren't you afraid that I will kill you?" Li Shimin asked again.

"Your Majesty, the ministers have the belief of the ministers, this is the belief that the ministers will die without regret." Li Junxian replied again.

Li Shimin thought for a while, and did not order Li Junxian to be killed on the spot, but said: "Order Li Junxian to go home and think about it behind closed doors, not to go out, and wait for disposal." ”

Li Junxian returned home lightly, and countless civil and military generals were looking at his back, as if they were surprised that this Li Junxian would be so different. Li Junxian actually dared to say in front of Li Shimin that he was not loyal to the emperor, but to hundreds of millions of people in China. If it really is his belief, then what he is saying to Jieli is true.

Everyone is paying attention to see what the ending will be for Li Junxian. Li Junxian's idea of loyalty to the nation was not a big market in ancient times, so they were all concerned about what Li Shimin would do with this Li Junxian.
