Inside the Tai Chi Hall.

Seeing the big man headed by the Turks, not only Li Er had a strange look on his face, but also many people in the hall bowed their heads and talked about it.

"My minister Ashina Simo sees your majesty~!"

The big Han headed by the Turkic embassy bowed to Li Er and saluted.

The two Turks behind him raised their fists to their chests and bowed to the big man, but they didn't speak, and they probably didn't speak Chinese!

"minister?"

Li Zexuan's heart moved. When Ashina Simo walked into the main hall, he discovered the abnormality of the surrounding officials. At this moment, when Ashina Simo called himself a "minister" to Li Er, his doubts deepened. ! After all, Ashina Simo is a foreigner, how can he call himself a minister to the emperor of the Tang Dynasty?

Since he is now in the civilian camp, most of the people around him are unfamiliar. Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, and Zhangsun Wuji are familiar to him, but these three have already stood at the front and are talking to Li Er!

So he could only suppress the doubts in his heart and quietly watch the development beside him.

"Haha! You don't need to be too polite! Hurry up and calm down!"

Li Er on the dragon chair said kindly.

In terms of attitude, it was obviously different from the envoys from the Tuli and Khitan tribes who had received them before.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Ashina Simo stood up straight, and Li Er asked at this time, "General Simo, do you have something important to ask me to see today?"

"Go back to your majesty, a few days ago, the Great Khan discovered that the chief of the Khitan department was reckless and dared to lead his troops to defect to the Turks and defected to the Tang Dynasty. He specially ordered Ashina Simo to come to Chang'an and ask His Majesty for the chief of the Khitan department!"

Ashina Simo bowed and replied.

Li Er's eyes narrowed, and his voice immediately became a little cold. He said lightly, "The Khitan Department has always been under the jurisdiction of Jieli. I have never seen him, so how can I give it to you?"

Ashina Simo said solemnly: "Your Majesty, the messenger who was at the palace gate just now is the Khitan tribe, the Khitan chief and his tribe, and they are definitely coming to Chang'an City at this moment, and His Majesty only needs to send someone. Catch it and hand it over to Simo! The Great Khan will be grateful when he arrives!"

Li Er's face sank, and his tone was not good: "Presumptuous! Ashina Simo, are you ordering me?"

"I dare not!"

Ashina Simo hurriedly bowed and said: "Your Majesty, this trip is only to bring back the Khitan Department, and I don't mean to offend! But Your Majesty seems to have the intention of covering up the Khitan Department. I hereby remind Your Majesty, don't forget it. In the old covenant, there was a friendly covenant between the Turks and the Tang Dynasty not to attack each other. Now that the Khitan Department has defected, if His Majesty can hand it over to his ministers and bring it back, the friendship between the Tang Dynasty and the Turks will last forever. , the Great Khan will also be grateful for His Majesty's kindness and righteousness, and give them generous gifts!"

"Bold~!"

As soon as Ashina Simo's voice fell, Cheng Yaojin suddenly lost his calm, the old guy jumped out from behind, pointed at Ashna Simo's nose and cursed:

"You bastard, you dare to accuse Your Majesty? Your Majesty treats you with courtesy today, but it is only because of the importance of the Emperor Taishang to you and the affection in the past. You don't know what's good or bad, and you have committed the following crimes and made a statement to His Majesty. Threats? Humph! Come out and have a good fight with my old Cheng if you are brave enough!"

Ashina Simo frowned and said, "Guo Gong Lu, Ashina Simo did not threaten His Majesty, but just wanted to complete the task given by the Great Khan and promote the friendship between the Turks and the Tang Dynasty! I am sorry for the offense. Your Majesty and Lu Guogong forgive me!"

Cheng Yaojin stared at the bull's eye and said angrily: "Humph! Don't use Jieli Khan to oppress this old man! My old Cheng is not afraid of him..."

"Okay! Know the festival! Go down! Above the court, there is a lot of noise, what a formality!"

Li Er, who was sitting high on the head, frowned and scolded lightly.

"...Hey~!"

Cheng Yaojin stopped here unwillingly, and then backed away!

Li Er looked at Ashina Simo and said solemnly: "I do have an alliance with Jie Li not to attack each other, the Khitan Ministry is in the Turks, I can't control it, but now I have surrendered to the Tang Dynasty, that is my son People, I will not hand over my own people to other countries, let alone Jie Li! So Ashina Simo, you should go back~!"

Ashina Simo Pian still reluctantly handed over his hands and said: "Your Majesty, if you can hand over all the members of the Khitan tribe to your ministers and bring them back, the Great Khan is willing to take Liang Shidu in exchange! Please think twice, Your Majesty, there is only one Khitan tribe, How can it be compared with the eternal friendship between the Turks and the Tang Dynasty?"

Liang Shidu! !

Everyone in the courtroom was stunned for a moment, and then there was an uproar!

Many civil servants and generals have flashes of emotion on their faces!

Li Zexuan was also moved because he had heard of Liang Shidu!

Liang Shidu was originally a general of Yingyang's house in the Sui Dynasty. At the end of the Sui Dynasty, he was dismissed and returned to his hometown. Later, he took advantage of the chaos in the world to rebel and control Shuofang. Later, Liang Shidu officially declared himself emperor and became a minister to the Turks.

After that, with the support of the Turks, Liang Shidu attacked the Tang Dynasty several times, but all of them were defeated by the Tang army, and the power was declining day by day. Especially after the Tang Dynasty eliminated other separatist forces, Liang Shidu was even more at risk. So Liang Shidu gave up his allegiance to the Turks, relying on the Turks to survive.

Because the Eastern Turks were powerful in the early years of the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty decided to recuperate and restore the national strength after quelling most of the separatist forces at that time, and then resolve Liang Shidu when they were able to defeat the Eastern Turks.

Therefore, Liang Shi is in East Turkistan

It has been maintained for more than ten years under the protection of Jue, and it is the longest-lasting separatist force at the end of the Sui Dynasty.

Now, in order to capture the defected Khitan tribe, Jie Li was willing to exchange Liang Shidu. Hearing this, Li Zexuan's eyes flashed, and he suddenly had a plan.

Li Er, who was sitting on the head, was obviously also shocked by Ashina Simo's words, but he quickly reacted, and then directly refused:

"Impossible! No matter what conditions Jie Li offers, I will never hand over the people who surrendered to my Tang Dynasty! The Tang Dynasty is a country of gentlemen, and I will never do such a villain's behavior! Therefore, Ashina Simo, you should die as soon as possible!"

Li Er is not stupid. Although he also thinks that he can solve Liang Shidu, he will not take out the Khitan Department in exchange. Otherwise, who would dare to surrender to the Tang Dynasty? This kind of thing that damages the prestige of the country, Li Er is absolutely not allowed to do it!

When all the ministers in the hall heard the words, they all breathed a sigh of relief. Obviously, everyone can see the current situation very clearly!

Ashina Simo's eyes sank slightly, and after a moment's pause, he cupped his hands unhappily and said, "If that's the case, then I will say goodbye! After I go back, I will tell the Great Khan truthfully, and I hope Your Majesty will not regret today's decision!"

"Humph! I have never regretted it! Someone! Send Ashina Simo out of the palace!"

Li Er hummed angrily and said.

If it wasn't for the war between the two countries, he would definitely have someone punish this rude fellow.

Ashina Simo glanced at Li Er, then took his entourage, turned his head and left the hall!

Inside the hall, silence fell again!

Because the current situation is getting more and more complicated, Li Er rejected Ashina Simo's request. After returning, Jieli Khan will definitely be furious. Everyone can have a hunch that the comprehensive relationship between Tang and Turk War is coming soon!

"Your Majesty, if Jie Liti's request is rejected, he will be very angry. The old minister estimates that when he finishes cleaning up the Tuli Khan, he will purge the army to avenge today's revenge! Therefore, even if we do not take the initiative to send troops, we will still You need to take precautions as soon as possible, otherwise it will be difficult to resist the wolf riding of the Turks!"

Li Jing, the military god of the Tang Dynasty, stood up at this time and bowed to Li Er.

"This minister agrees with the words of the pharmacist! Since His Majesty rejected Jie Li today, we must take precautions early! Whether it is offensive or defensive, please make an early decision~!"

The former Xu Maogong, and the current Li Ji, also stepped forward and bowed.

"Chen wait for second opinion, please make your decision early!"

Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and other ministers bowed and said.

Li Er nodded, and then he said: "What you Aiqing said is very true, although there is a covenant between the Tang Dynasty and the Turks, but the Turkic wolf's ambition is well known, they tear up the covenant, it will be a matter of time! But! I, the Tang Dynasty, as the upper country of the Celestial Dynasty and the state of the gentleman, absolutely cannot do such acts of treachery, so I decided to suspend the dispatch of troops.

However, the battalions of the sixteen guards in the capital, starting today, need to urge the soldiers to prepare for battle and strengthen training. The generals will serve as supervisors, households, and industrial departments. They must prepare weapons, armor, war horses, and food in advance! Once the Turks violate the covenant, we will immediately send the Turks and capture Jie Li! In the face of national disasters, all ministers must do their best and do their due diligence, and must not intrigue and affect preparations for war! "

"I will obey the order~!"

Civil servants and generals, all bowed to take orders.

Li Er nodded, and was about to say, "I have something to play, and I have nothing to go back to the court." Who knows, Li Zexuan came up at this time.

"Your Majesty, I have a plan for the Turks!"

Li Zexuan, dressed in a purple robe, stood in the hall, proud and independent, with a confident appearance, he was really personable and excellent in temperament!

Many ministers saw it and praised it in their hearts.

Mainly because this product has a good leather bag!

"Oh? Yonganhou, what's your plan? Tell me quickly!"

Li Er's eyes lit up and asked with some anticipation.

He asked Li Zexuan to come to the early court today, mainly to let Li Zexuan participate in the affairs of the Tang Dynasty and the Turks. After all, he wanted Li Zexuan to contribute his strength to attack the Turks in the future!

He didn't expect that Li Zexuan would still have his own opinion on the current situation of the Tang Dynasty and the Turks!

When Ashina Simo left the hall, Li Zexuan had already brewed a plan in his heart. At this moment, he had already made up his mind. Hearing the words, he handed over and said:

"Your Majesty, I suggest to send troops to Shuofang immediately to attack Liang Shidu and solve this last obstacle in my Tang Dynasty!"

After listening to Li Er, he was slightly disappointed, and said, "The army sent Liang Shidu? What does this have to do with the Turks?"

Li Zexuan said solemnly: "Your Majesty, this time the Turkic messengers want to use Liang Shidu to exchange the Khitan tribe, it is enough to see that the current Turkic state is in chaos, and it is no longer able to protect Liang Shidu, why don't we take this opportunity to take it down in one fell swoop?

At that time, Master Liang gathered troops to occupy Shuofang and founded the country privately, making the land of Shuofang a natural barrier between the Tang Dynasty and the Turks. Jie Li asked for help, but Jie Li couldn't bear to lose this barrier, so he would definitely send troops to help!

Once Jie Li sent troops to assist Liang Shidu and fight against the Tang army, he would have violated the covenant of the year, which is undoubtedly the reason for your Majesty to send troops to the Turks. Since he violated the covenant first, why can't we take the initiative to attack the Turks ?

Therefore, the symbolic significance of this battle is far greater than the practical significance, and it is far from being as simple as acquiring a territory, because during this battle, once the Eastern Turks rescued Liang Shidu, they directly gave me the reason for the Tang Dynasty to attack the Turks!

If Jie Li sees through our plan and does not save

Aid Liang Shidu, that's okay, being able to get rid of the separatist forces that have been entrenched in Shuofang for many years will also be of great benefit to maintaining the stability of the rear of our Tang Dynasty.

Therefore, once this plan comes out, no matter what Jie Li does, we will be invincible! "

Above the main hall, Li Zexuan talked eloquently. A perfect plan for Jieli Khan was told from his mouth. The more civil and military officials listened to each other, the brighter their eyes became. Li Er also heard it. Surprised, nodding frequently!

When Li Zexuan finished speaking, Li Er couldn't help but slapped the table: "Okay! Good! Good strategy! Do you think the Marquis of Yongan's strategy is feasible?"

Cheng Yaojin stepped forward immediately, and said with a beaming expression, "Hey! Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that the plan of the Marquis of Yongan is very feasible! The little old man Liang Shidu has been occupying Shuofang for so many years, he should have gotten out of my Tang Dynasty long ago! If your Majesty is at war, Cheng Zhijie is willing to lead troops to take Liang Shidu's head!"

It is said that as long as there is a battle, this old guy will be enthusiastic. He didn't have enough fun in Guancheng County a while ago, and now he is going to fight Liang Shidu, and he is even more enthusiastic!

What's more, he also thinks that this strategy proposed by Li Zexuan is very reliable!

Qin Qiong also stepped forward, clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that the Marquis of Yongan's plan is feasible! Even if we can't force the reinforcements of the Turks, we can recover Shuofang and completely unify the Central Plains!"

Li Jing also said at this time: "Your Majesty, the Marquis of Yongan's plan is very good. For us, it can be attacked and defended, but for Jie Li, it is a dilemma! The minister also thinks this plan is feasible!"

"The minister waits for the second opinion!"

Li Zexuan's strategy will not allow Datang to bear the infamy of treachery, and it will allow Datang to turn passive into active in the confrontation with the Turks. Who would dare to disagree with the demands of civil and military officials? Those who do not agree can only be the spies who are fornicating with the Turks!

Therefore, as soon as the military god of the Tang Dynasty made a statement, it immediately played a decisive role, and all the civil and military officials agreed.

Li Erlong Yan was very happy and said: "Okay! If that's the case, then it's settled! Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Zhangsun Wuji, Xiao Yu, Yan Lide, Li Jing, Li Ji, Cheng Zhijie, Qin Qiong, Yuchi Jingde, Niu Jinda, Duan Zhixuan, Chai Shao and Xue Wanjun, stay and discuss with me about dispatching troops, and the rest of the ministers and workers, if you have something to report, leave the court without anything~!"
