    After hearing this, Li Shimin was silent for a while, then a gleam flashed in his eyes, and he said seriously: "Even if I want to deal with Du Qi in the future, I will deal with it in an upright manner, and I will not use any tricks."

    "Du Qi is doing business in an upright manner, and has never disturbed the situation, so naturally I will not take care of it."

    "Things that benefit the country and the people cannot be dealt with."

    "It's a fool's thing to harm others and benefit oneself. When the Tang Dynasty really stabilizes, even if Tubo threatens, I will not be afraid. What's more, Tubo dares to swallow troops on the border, and I will remember this matter."

    After a pause, Li Shimin continued: "As for Du Qi's money-making development, my Datang is also developing rapidly. Compared with Du Qi's development, Datang has a vast land and abundant resources, so it must develop faster. In short, this time I lost money.  Swallowed it. But in another year, let's compete with Du Qi again and try arm wrestling with him."

    Li Jing said solemnly: "Your Majesty is wise!"

    Li Jing supported Li Shimin's decision 100%.  Moreover, Li Jing also admired Li Shimin's decision. The emperor is the most face-saving creature. Li Shimin can restrain his own thoughts, stop fighting, and not take personal honor and disgrace to heart, but consider the overall situation of the Tang Dynasty. For the entire Tang Dynasty  is extremely important.

    Li Shimin said: "Mr. Wei, you observe the world with a cold eye, and a pair of wise eyes can penetrate the truth. This time, it is thanks to the reminder of Mr. Wei."

    Li Jing shook his head and said: "Your Majesty praises me. I failed to solve Du Qi for Your Majesty. It is already a dereliction of duty. I should not be praised by Your Majesty."

    Li Shimin said: "Duke Wei is humble."

    Changsun Wuji continued: "Your Majesty, since we are preparing to withdraw our troops now, what about Hou Junji and the tens of thousands of troops?"

    Li Shimin said: "Of course I have to change it back."

    Changsun Wuji said: "Will Du Qi be willing?"

    Li Shimin said: "Just negotiate with Du Qi again."

    Speaking of this, Li Shimin looked at Li Jing again, and ordered: "Mr. Wei, you can arrange for the army to retreat as usual. Next, I will lead the army to Du Qi's camp again, and talk to Du Qi again.  some."

    "yes!"

    Li Jing responded immediately.

    When Li Shimin said these words, he glanced at Changsun Wuji and sighed in his heart.

    He knew Du Qi's conditions clearly.

    It is to make him apologize.

    And let Changsun Wuji's son go to the Western Regions as a hostage in exchange for Hou Junji and others.  But right now, Li Shimin couldn't say it directly, so he went to talk to Du Qi again and negotiate again.

    I will tell Changsun Wuji when the time comes, I think Changsun Wuji will feel better.

    Most importantly, Li Shimin had to negotiate an apology, and he was not willing to apologize.  Negotiations are a tug-of-war between the two, so Li Shimin is not in a hurry.  After Li Jing made arrangements, Li Shimin led more than a thousand Xuanjia elite riders to the outside of Du Qi's camp.

    Xuanjia Jingqi is Li Shimin's personal guard, responsible for protecting Li Shimin's safety.  As soon as Li Shimin arrived outside Du Qi's camp, he immediately arranged for someone to come forward and inform Du Qi to come out and see him.

    Du Qi will come out soon.

    The two of them were again arranged in the previous conversation, sitting on both sides of the desk, with a canopy to block the sun.

    Du Qi said with a smile: "Your Majesty went down and came back, and now he has only a few personal guards with him. It seems that His Majesty has already decided to make peace."

    Li Shimin said: "Du Qi, you have won this time."

    Du Qidao: "Your Majesty's praise."

    Du Qi actually expected that this battle would not be fought.  But even if there is a real war, Du Qi is not afraid, he has enough confidence to deal with it.

    Li Shimin didn't go around in circles, and cut straight to the point: "Du Qi, for your conditions, I only agree to exchange Changsun Wuji's son, Changsun Chong, for Hou Junji, and at the same time you release all the prisoners. Correspondingly, I will choose to withdraw. As for the rest  , I don¡¯t agree. If you agree, this battle will be eliminated. If you don¡¯t agree, even if I go all out, I will fight you.¡±

    Du Qi said with a smile: "Your Majesty is threatening me!"

    Li Shimin said: "You, Du Qi, have always been immune to threats. How dare I threaten you. It's just that I have proposed a relatively suitable plan, which can be accepted by both parties. It depends on your decision."

    Du Qi thought for a while, and said: "Your Majesty's words have already been said for this purpose, what else can I say? I naturally agree. Right now I can release all the captured soldiers of the Tang Army, while Hou Junji will continue to detain them."  Wait. When the eldest grandson rushes to the Western Regions, I will naturally release Hou Junji. Of course, it doesn¡¯t matter if the eldest grandson rushes, Hou Junji willJust stay with me.  But even though I agreed, there is one small condition other than the eldest grandson Chong coming to the Western Regions.  "

    Li Shimin frowned and said, "What conditions?"

    Du Qidao: "The reason why Your Majesty sent troops to the Western Regions and targeted me was caused by Changsun Wuji. Let him come to me in person and kneel in front of me to apologize to me. Your Majesty, I never asked you to apologize. I just let you  Changsun Wuji apologized, but let Changsun Chong come as a hostage, this is my last line. If His Majesty disagrees, then that's all, let's go to war."

    Li Shimin said: "Changsun Chong will come, and so will Changsun Wuji."

    Du Qidao: "Your Majesty said he would come, so I believe it. But Your Majesty, I have to remind you. Now my strength is not strong enough, so I have more than enough self-preservation and not enough aggressiveness."

    "When my strength develops in the future, if His Majesty comes to provoke again at that time, it will not be the case. At that time, at least the land will be ceded to pay compensation, and I will even invade Datang."

    "In short, I will not take the initiative to provoke and cause trouble, but I will never be afraid of trouble."

    Du Qi said: "I, Du Qi, have a heart of gratitude to Your Majesty. But this kind of gratitude also depends on what His Majesty will do. If His Majesty wants to send troops, then the next time, he must fight a tough battle.  .¡±

    After all, Du Ruhui is in Chang'an.

    Du Qi had concerns.

    And Du Qi still has some feelings for Datang.  He doesn't want to do things like infighting, he is willing to expand westward.  But if Datang wants to target him and the emperor wants to send troops, Du Qi is not afraid of a battle.

    This is Du Qi's attitude.

    Li Shimin snorted and said, "Du Qi, I hope you can take care of yourself."

    Du Qidao: "Your Majesty, I only have eight characters. You will not fail me, and I will not fail you."

    Li Shimin stood up and said, "Farewell!"

    Du Qidao: "Congratulations, Your Majesty!"

    Li Shimin flicked his sleeves and strode away.  Xuanjia Jingqi escorted Li Shimin, and quickly disappeared from Du Qi's sight.  Du Qi looked at the departing Li Shimin, he knew the friendship between himself and Li Shimin, even if there was only a little left, but now, there is no personal friendship, only the hostility between countries.

    Du Qi didn't feel anything.

    This is the price of being independent.

    Of course Du Qi knows Li Shimin better, he is a promising master.  Maybe Li Shimin has suffered a dark loss right now, so that's all.  But after that, Li Shimin's strength became stronger, and he and Datang may have a real head-to-head contest after all.

    After Li Shimin left, he thought about Du Qi's words in his heart.

    Judging from the meaning in the words, Li Shimin was actually quite relieved, because Du Qi had expressed his attitude.  If Datang does not deal with Du Qi, then Du Qi will never turn against Tang, and must be loyal to Datang.

    Du Qi's words were too arrogant, and the tone of his speech made Li Shimin unhappy.

    Anyway, Li Shimin is the emperor.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
