    Du Qi drank another glass of wine and continued: "The fourth condition involves Duan Zhixuan and the more than 50,000 soldiers of the Tang Army captured by me. This group of troops must be returned to Datang, so Datang must ensure a condition,  That is the property of our Xia Kingdom in the Tang Dynasty, so we must not intentionally target it."

    "From last year to this year, my country's properties in Datang, whether it's restaurants, banks, or other properties, have either been suppressed or robbed."

    "From the beginning to the end, the Tang court never gave a statement. Instead, they joined hands to suppress Xia's industry. Such an approach really lost the mind of the Tang Dynasty."

    "Even treating this fairly, Datang can't do it, which makes people look down upon.

    Du Qi continued: "As long as Datang is willing to achieve these four points. Then, I will withdraw my troops and return to Xia Kingdom, and will not enter Guazhou again."

    After hearing this, Li Yuan was relieved.

    Du Qi's four conditions may seem a bit harsh, but in fact they are not very harsh.

    Li Yuandao: "Du Erlang, I agree to your fourth condition. But for specifics, I need to ask the emperor for instructions, and see how the emperor decides, and I will give you an answer in the end."

    Du Qidao: "No problem, I will wait for news from the Supreme Emperor."

    After this battle, Du Qi suffered a loss, but in the long run, he won't lose anything.  Moreover, most of the money and food in Guazhou City had been taken away when they evacuated yesterday. Although there were some left, there was not much left.  The most important thing is that this battle even recruited Su Dingfang and beheaded Hou Junji, which further demonstrated the strength of Xia Guo.

    On this basis, if Datang wants to go to war with Xia Guo in the future, he will have to weigh it carefully.  After all, the first time Li Shimin and Xia Guo went to war, Li Shimin retreated without a fight.  Now this time when Li Shimin and Xia Guo went to war, Hou Junji was damaged, and even Duan Zhixuan was taken down, which can be said to be a huge loss.

    Li Yuan stood up and left, heading down the mountain.  Not long after, Li Yuan came to the Tang Army's camp at the foot of the mountain.

    Li Shimin hurriedly said: "Father, how is the situation?"

    Li Yuan said: "Emperor, Du Qi agreed to withdraw the troops, and agreed to release Duan Zhixuan and the more than 50,000 captured Tang soldiers. However, Du Qi proposed four conditions."

    Li Shimin's cheeks twitched, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Du Qi really dares to ask for conditions! As soon as he opened his mouth, he put forward four conditions. Tell me, what conditions does he have."

    Li Yuan explained immediately.

    After the four conditions were finished, Li Shimin and Changsun Wuji looked a little dignified.  Because among the four conditions, it is not difficult to open Guazhou without collecting taxes, and not to target Du Qi's industry in Datang.

    Li Shimin's embarrassment was about how to deal with Hou Junji's family.  Now that Hou Junji is dead, and before Hou Junji died, he begged Li Shimin to take care of his family, but now Du Qi made a special request to exile Hou Junji's family to Lingnan.

    This is what Du Qi did on purpose.

    Just to embarrass Li Shimin.

    As for the first point, let Changsun Wuji go to apologize, this is not difficult for Li Shimin, it is Changsun Wuji who is embarrassed.  When he was at the border of Guazhou in the past, Du Qi put forward the condition for Changsun Wuji to kneel down and apologize.  Now that the Tang army was defeated this time, Du Qi proposed this condition again, the essence of which was to deliberately target Changsun Wuji and make Changsun Wuji feel a deep chill.

    horrible!

    Du Qi is too scary!

    Speaking of this time, was it his eldest grandson Wuji who took the initiative to pick things up?

    no!

    This time, it was Hou Junji who picked it up.  The ambush of Du Qi was also decided by Hou Junji, and had nothing to do with Changsun Wuji, so Du Qi still dealt with him.

    This is the fire at the gate of the city and the fish in the pond.

    Changsun Wuji's eyes fell on Li Shimin again.  Because the final decision depends on Li Shimin.  It's just that Changsun Wuji doesn't have much hope in his heart.  When it comes to Datang's safety and to Datang's face, he reckons that Li Shimin will eventually agree to Du Qi's conditions.

    Li Shimin is still thinking at this moment.

    As an emperor, Li Shimin could only endure this if he simply proceeded from the overall situation of the Tang Dynasty.  Because if we continue to fight Du Qi now, on the one hand Li Shimin may not be able to win, on the other hand Du Qi has Duan Zhixuan and others.  If the fight continues, Li Shimin will suffer.

    Li Shimin's expression changed again and again, and after constant changes, finally Li Shimin said: "Father, you answer Du Qi, and I agree to his conditions. Please tell him, Father, so that he can do it himself."

    Li Yuan shook his head in his heart.

    Now it is Li Shimin who is better at doing things for himself.

    ?The matter of Hou Junji this time, although it was due to Hou Junji,But Li Shimin made a decision early.  Even ordering the disposal of Hou Junji early, in fact, it will not evolve to the present state.

    Li Yuan said: "Since I agree with Du Qi's conditions, one of the conditions involved now is the matter of Changsun Wuji. I must let Changsun Wuji climb the mountain immediately and apologize to Du Qi again."

    Li Shimin turned to look at Changsun Wuji. Before Li Shimin could speak, Changsun Wuji said: "Your Majesty, I am willing to go and apologize to Du Qi."

    Li Shimin nodded.

    Li Yuan and Changsun Wuji went to the top of Niulan Mountain.

    Li Shimin looked at the backs of the two leaving, clenched his fists, and there was a look of ferocity and anger on his face.  Although he agreed to Du Qi's conditions, under such conditions, Li Shimin was forced.  In particular, Changsun Wuji kowtowed to Du Qi to apologize in front of all the soldiers, which affected the morale of the army and made him lose face.

    On the other hand, Hou Junji died, but his family was about to be exiled.  This incident also affects the whole court, and will affect the main combat faction in the court.  After all, if the person who mainly targeted Du Qi was dealt with like this, who would dare to attack Du Qi again?

    This is the gain and loss of people's hearts, but Li Shimin has no choice but to agree to the conditions at the moment.  After returning to the court, I will slowly consider the issue of restoration and adjustment.

    Not long after, Li Yuan and Changsun Wuji had already climbed the mountain.  Li Yuan looked at Du Qi and said, "Du Erlang, the emperor has agreed to your request. Now that Changsun Wuji is here, it's up to you to fulfill the agreement."

    Du Qi shook his head and chuckled lightly, and said, "The Supreme Emperor, it is the elder grandson Wuji who should fulfill the agreement first."

    He looked at Changsun Wuji and said, "Duke Qi, I didn't expect us to meet again. What a coincidence! Last time, you went outside my camp and knelt down to apologize. This time, you came again.  Tell me, don't we have a special destiny?"

    After these words, Changsun Wuji looked embarrassed.

    Even more helpless.

    Du Qi continued: "Mr. Qi, this is the second time. In fact, I am looking forward to the third time. I hope that in the future, you will continue to be hostile to me. Once you encounter officials from the Tang Dynasty who want to use force against me, you will actively plan and take the initiative to fight against me."  Staff, make suggestions. Believe, we will meet again. So, I look forward to the third time."

    Speaking of this, Du Qi paused and said: "I don't know if there will be another war with Datang in the future. But what I can guarantee is that if there is another war, once I gain the upper hand again, I will raise conditions again  I will continue to let you come. It is a good thing to form a routine over and over again."

    Changsun Wuji's cheeks twitched, and he even said hysterically: "Du Qi, why do you always target me? Your conditions can completely not involve me, but you target me like this."

    Du Qidao: "No way, I hold grudges! Besides, your grandson Wuji has enough influence in front of the emperor. If you influence the emperor and persuade the emperor, maybe it won't be like this. In the future, you  Think twice before acting."

    Changsun Wuji felt extremely angry.

    Why?

    Why target him.

    Unfortunately, Changsun Wuji had no solution.  So at the moment, he could only suppress his anger towards Du Qi, and even faintly thought of not being an enemy of Du Qi.

    This is a subconscious reaction.

    It's just that Du Qi needs such a result to make Changsun Wuji afraid.  In the future, once it comes to the battle against Xia, Changsun Wuji will stand up and oppose it. This is what Du Qi wants to achieve.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
