Chapter 293: To be a grandfather

While Shaluo Khan was anxious to make peace, Li Guanqi was also thinking about peace, and the others in Guan could only see a piece of light in front of him, but as an emperor, he couldn't help but think long-term.

Although at present, the big cadres and armies occupy the dominant situation, and if they continue to fight, the Turks will not be able to take advantage of anything, but this is all based on the fact that the Turks continue to fight. In fact, the Turks could have temporarily withdrawn from the army and recuperated and then made a comeback, while the Turks, as nomadic peoples, recuperated very quickly. The frontier of Daqian is so long, there are always weak links, and the Turks will certainly find a suitable place to break through the barriers, and then the common people of Daqian will have to suffer again. When the time comes, the situation will not be as good as it is today.

Throughout human history, except for the purpose of exterminating the other side, all wars have been fought to promote peace and seek economic benefits. Now the Turks are aiming for this purpose, and so is Li Guanqi. In the final analysis, at this stage, neither the Western Turks nor the Great Cadres can help anyone, and in this case, they will either live in peace, or they will fight and blackmail something. In the past, the Turks had always done this, and now Li Guanqi also wanted to govern others in his own way.

However, although Li Guanqi wanted to make peace, he was not in a hurry, at least he was not in a hurry now, the current situation was favorable to the cadres, and the longer it dragged on, the more he could get at the negotiation table, so Li Guanqi would avoid the Turkic envoys. Of course, it can't be dragged on forever, otherwise the Turks will directly withdraw their troops, but the bamboo basket will be empty.

Now that the Turks have sent their own prince, they have already shown great sincerity. Li Guanqi naturally will not continue to be "unreasonable", and it is time to negotiate seriously with the other party.

However, Li Guanqi still did not come forward in person, and he still had to continue to tense the other party's nerves. Originally, Li Guanqi didn't come forward, and it was really difficult for Guan Li to find a suitable candidate to negotiate with Qiluo. Because Li Guanqi doesn't have his own prince, in terms of identity. Queen He Bijun is a suitable candidate, but when it is said that He Bijun will negotiate, it is estimated that even He Bijun himself does not believe it.

However, just the day before, this problem had been resolved, and the ministers in the capital were not worried about their emperor and sent people to work the army. The leaders are Lin Bai, the imperial historian of the left capital, and Yang Bozheng, who is already at home.

Li Guanqi originally planned to let Lin Bai negotiate with Qiluo on his behalf. But when I talked to everyone about it, there was a big accident.

Originally, Li Guanqi thought that he would just report this matter and let everyone know. Unexpectedly, Yang Bozheng began an emotional speech: "The minister disagrees. ”

Everyone in the gate was already accustomed to listening to Li Guanqi's arrangement, but they didn't expect that the situation would change suddenly today, and someone wanted to sing against the emperor, so they all came to their senses and unconsciously straightened their bodies, wanting to listen to what Yang Bozheng had to say. They didn't know that this old man had quarreled with Li Guanqi before. So I think it's fresh.

Li Guanqi was also stunned, and asked suspiciously: "Does Haoduan agree with Lin Bai to come forward to negotiate peace?" ”

"It's not." Yang Bozheng stiffened his neck and said, "The minister does not agree to negotiate peace. ”

"yes. At this time, it was too cheap for the Turks to negotiate peace. The crowd unconsciously echoed.

Yang Bozheng seemed to be encouraged, and his voice was raised a little again: "Since ancient times, the alliance under the city, the loss of power and humiliation of the country, my generation's head can be broken, blood can be shed, this alliance under the city, must not be signed!" Your Majesty, please think again. ”

Li Guanqi didn't expect a simple thing. was actually raised to such a height by Yang Bozheng, and he couldn't help but be angry. "Who told you that the alliance under the city must lose power and humiliate the country? I asked you to negotiate peace, not to surrender. ”

"Huh?" Yang Bozheng was stunned, "Your Majesty means ......"

"I mean it's simple." Li Guanqi said angrily, "You go and tell them, let them compensate me for 10 million taels." In the future, we will attack our cadres by 3 million taels every year. What do you think? Can you take this errand? ”

"This ......" Yang Bozheng still didn't react a little. In fact, I can't complain about this old brother. The Great Qian Dynasty has been fighting with the Turks for a hundred years, and they have discussed peace I don't know how many times, and they have always compensated others, when did the Turks ever pay for themselves? So, under inertial thinking. Yang Bozheng subconsciously thought that this meeting was the same as before.

"What is this?" Li Guanqi said with a smile, "I won't let Lin Bai go, you can do this." If you can't do it, I'm going to punish you. ”

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, the minister will not fail in his mission." Yang Bozheng's attitude immediately changed 180 degrees. There is no way, intellectuals are the problem, they always think about things in an idealized way, and regard integrity as life.

After Yang Bozheng left, Lin Bai frowned and said, "Your Majesty." It's a little inappropriate to let Old Master Yang go, right? ”

"What's wrong?" Li Guanqi picked up the teacup on the case, took a sip, and asked noncommittally.

"The Turks have made their prince an envoy, and our dynasty should pay attention to it." Lin Bai pondered and said, "Although Old Master Yang is a leader in the literary world and has also been a scholar of the Central University, he has already become a scholar after all...... In case of...... If you offend the Turkic envoys, it will be unfavorable to discuss peace! ”

Li Guanqi smiled slightly and said, "It's to fight for the greatest interests, that's why I let Yang Bozheng go." Don't worry, this business can't be yellow. ”

"Oh?" Lin Bai became interested, "Your Majesty is far-sighted, can you say it to the minister?" ”

"It's not a visionary!" Li Guanqi said with a smile, "I just don't like the Turks." For so many years, they have been running to our land to be powerful, treating our people as cows, horses and grandchildren. Today they came to beg us, how could I let go of this opportunity for them to call grandpa? ”

"Your Majesty!" Lin Bai said hurriedly, "The major affairs of the country are not child's play!" ”

"I don't have any child's play!" Li Guanqi said seriously, "The Turks look very arrogant on the surface, but in fact, they are inferior in their bones. For people like them, the more you give them a good face, the more they kick their noses in the face, and if you put on a posture of ignoring them, they will obediently come to us. ”

"This ...... Is this true? Lin Bai asked with a disbelieving expression. Although he believes in Li Guanqi, he always feels a little unreliable about this theory.

Li Guanqi laughed and said, "Lin Aiqing! Rest assured. I'm not going to joke about something that big. ”

"Why does the minister think that His Majesty is joking?" Lin Bai said with a wry smile. (To be continued......)
