    Chang'an, heavy rain.

    For the people in Guanzhong who have been suffering from a long drought, this heavy rain comes at just the right time.  Because Li Shimin ascended the throne for two years, the Guanzhong area has been experiencing a long drought without rain.

    It seems that there is going to be a change of dynasty.  Many old people sighed like this.

    One morning after it rained, news of the defeat in the Battle of Sanyuan had reached Chang'an.  Emperor Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty was killed in battle. As soon as the news came out, the whole of Chang'an was in turmoil.  The most touching thing was Li Tang's clan and the ministers who stayed behind.

    There was a chaos in the city, and they were arguing about whether to fight or to go, but before they could argue, Zhao Jun's cavalry had already arrived at the city.

    In the picture of a heavy rain at night, Li Tang's ministers and officials looked outside the city at the countless Zhao army cavalry who lit torches and wore raincoats. They all realized that they could no longer leave.

    During a dispute, Li Shentong and Li Xiaogong were elected to negotiate with Zhao Guo.  But the two of them made the same decision. At this moment, they had no choice but to invite the Supreme Emperor Li Yuan to come back to take charge of the overall situation.

    When the two came to Da'an Palace to meet Li Yuan.

    Li Yuan seemed to have known their purpose and said: "I knew this would happen. I was always worried, but now I am not afraid anymore."

    Li Shentong and Li Xiaogong shed tears when they heard this.  Li Shentong cried: "Your Majesty, the building is about to collapse, and you are the only one who can turn the tide."

    Li Yuan just shook his head and said: "Even when I raised troops in Taiyuan, I couldn't reverse the great move. What's more, now that Feng Zhu is in his twilight years, and the situation is over, it is better to surrender early to avoid killing. I can see that Li Chongjiu is a kind-hearted person."  Man, what¡¯s more, isn¡¯t Sanniang his noble concubine? She also gave birth to a prince for him, so he won¡¯t use ruthless means to eradicate those of us named Li. Don¡¯t worry!¡±

    "As for the rest of the things, go ahead and do it! I'm tired!" After saying that, Li Yuan took out a small bottle from his sleeve.

    Li Shentong shed tears and said: "Your Majesty"

    After hearing this, Li Yuan smiled bitterly and said: "I am already a very old man, can I still be like Liu Chan, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty? I have been stubborn all my life, and I don't want to look at others when I am old. The only regret I have now is  , I just can¡¯t see my Sanniang, Shiro, and my grandson, but I have no regrets about the rest, so please step back!¡±

    Li Shentong and Li Xiaogong were speechless. At this moment, someone outside reported: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty! King Qi is here!"

    Li Yuan suddenly stood up and said, "What?"

    "Father!"

    Someone outside the door shouted with great energy, then stepped through the door and threw himself in front of Li Yuan's knees.

    "Yuanji, it's really you!" Li Yuan was in tears at this moment.

    Li Yuanji also cried bitterly: "Father, you have suffered a lot in the past few years. Third sister, third sister originally wanted to bring your grandson to see you, but But Li Chongjiu refused. It is really unbecoming of a gentleman. Could it be that he  I was afraid that my father would harm his daughter. The third sister asked me to ask my father how he was doing in advance. The third sister said that he had already asked Li Chongjiu for help, and Li Chongjiu agreed.  The condition of the minister's survival is that not a single plant or tree in Chang'an city is destroyed. At the same time, within one month, the clan, ministers, Yang Duwei, and other Guanlong clan members must move to Luoyang and are not allowed to stay in Chang'an."

    "Right now, Zhao Jun's 300,000-strong army has arrived outside Chang'an City. It only takes one hour for them to break through the city. But Li Chongjiu can say this, which is enough to give Third Sister face."

    Li Yuan rolled his eyes, pondered for a while and asked: "Then Li Chongjiu is also willing to let your second brother's sons live?"

    Li Yuanji said anxiously: "Father, why are you worried about that person who has no father and no brother? It is not easy for Li Chongjiu to agree to these conditions for the third sister now"

    After hearing this, Li Yuan suddenly rolled his sleeves and said: "Although your second brother is unkind and unjust, his sons are also my flesh and blood, Li Yuan. Since you were a child, you have only cared about protecting yourself. When have you ever considered others?"

    "Father, I am!" Li Yuanji's face was filled with grievances. He did not expect this result.

    Seeing Li Yuanji's anxious look, Li Yuan sighed and said: "You are so confused. Now your second brother's eldest son Cheng Qian and his mother's eldest grandson have fled to Shu. General Li Jing has led an army to Shu to protect him. With Li Chongjiu  Although it is not difficult for the current forces to defeat Shu, the mountains and rivers of Sichuan and Shu are steep and there is a famous general like Li Jing to guard it. It will always take a year or two to work. You can offer Li Chongjiu in exchange for Sichuan on the condition of keeping their independence.  The return of Shu to Zhao is the best of both worlds. This not only fulfills the name of benevolence and filial piety for you, but also contributes to Li Chongjiu. With this in mind, Li Chongjiu will never embarrass you in the future, do you understand?"

    After hearing what Li Yuan said, Li Yuanji suddenly realized and said happily: "Father, that's it."

    Li Yuanji finally understood Li Yuan¡¯s painstaking efforts. Although Li ChongjiuIt seems that even his archenemy Dou Jiande can be tolerant and generous, but this is just to win people's hearts before he conquers the world.  But after winning the world, will there be another Liu Bang?

    "But Li Chongjiu is really Liu Bang, and it is useless no matter how much credit Li Yuanji makes.

    Outside Chang'an City, inside Zhao Jun's tent.

    A blond woman with blue eyes is standing in the middle, looking very charming.  The generals of Zhao State also looked at this woman with a sense of freshness.

    This woman is the Ketun Eudocia Epiphania of the Western Turkic leader Yehu Khan. She is also the daughter of Heraclius, the emperor of the Eastern Roman Empire.  It was the tool used by Heraclius in the Eastern Roman Empire's plan to jointly attack Persia in order to conclude a alliance with the Western Turks.

    After the Battle of Sanyuan, Wang Junkuo arrived at the battlefield a step late, but the victory was already decided.  Li Chongjiu then ordered Wang Junkuo to pursue the Western Turkic Khan Tong Yehu who had fled from the Sanyuan battlefield.  Wang Junkuo fulfilled his mission. After pursuing for hundreds of miles, he finally defeated the main force of the Western Turks and captured more than 20,000 of their riders. Not only did he capture Tongyehu Khan, but also this peerless beauty.

    Tong Yehu Khan was captured, but the Eastern Roman princess showed no fear at all. Instead, she looked at the place curiously, then performed a Western ceremony and said in half-baked Turkic dialect: "I am the princess of the Eastern Roman Empire.  , please give me the treatment I deserve."

    "But seeing the princess's calm look, several generals of the Zhao army smiled maliciously.  Several generals who had made great contributions in the battle of Sanyuan, such as Wang Mahan, etc., were all making up their mind whether to ask Li Chongjiu to take this Hu Ji as his concubine.

    The reason why they didn¡¯t say anything was because they thought it would be difficult for them to speak if Li Chongjiu took a fancy to him first.

    Li Chongjiu said in Turkic dialect: "In the Eastern Roman Empire, I have heard that your father, Heraclius, was a great emperor! And your new Rome, Constantinople, is also a great city!"

    After hearing what Li Chongjiu said, the Princess of Eastern Rome couldn't help but become happy and said: "You know Constantinople? That's great. I really hope you have the opportunity to go to Constantinople to see it! Of course you are not going to attack us."

    Li Chongjiu laughed and said: "Why should I attack you? We Han people are not fond of killing. But I will definitely go to Constantinople to see it if I have the chance. Even if I don't have the chance, my descendants will go in my place."  , of course with our peace and goodwill, and from sea, not land.¡±

    After hearing this, the Princess of Eastern Rome jumped up like a little girl and said, "Great, you are indeed the greatest king in the East!"

    "The greatest king in the East? Why do you say that?" Li Chongjiu asked with a smile.

    The Princess of Eastern Rome said: "You defeated the Tang, Eastern and Western Turks. Now there is no one in the entire East who can be your opponent. Shouldn't you be called the greatest king in the East!"

    The East Roman princess said so. In the tent, Xu Shiji, Xue Wanche, Wang Mahan, Yuchi Gong, Ji Chuan, Zhang Xuansu, Yu Shinan, Wang Junkuo, Yinghefu, Etuo and other generals laughed loudly.

    Happy laughter came from the tent, Li Chongjiu smiled faintly, and then said: "The greatest king in the East! I don't like this title, because it makes people proud, but I still thank you for the compliment."

    While he was talking, Shan Xiongxin walked into the tent and said to Li Chongjiu with an excited expression: "Your Majesty, the whole country of Li Tang has surrendered!"

    Hearing this, Li Chongjiu was as calm as Li Chongjiu at the moment, and could not suppress his emotions. The generals in the room were filled with joy, excitement, and tears of excitement. They all knelt down and said: "Congratulations to your majesty on your domination of the world!"

    "Unify the world!" Li Chongjiu said softly.

    Chang'an City, Da'an Palace.

    Five hundred Zhao Junting guards were standing outside the palace. In the side room of the palace, Li Zhiwan was holding her infant son uneasy. Li Yuanji, Li Xiaogong, and Li Shentong were also uneasy.

    In the main hall, only a box of sandalwood was lit.

    Li Chongjiu and Li Yuan sat opposite each other.

    Before Li Yuan could speak, Li Chongjiu bowed his hands and said, "I want to express my gratitude to you first."

    Li Yuan smiled bitterly and said: "Thank you for what, thank me for giving you this Chang'an city and this family property? No need, you won these by yourself."

    Li Chongjiu shook his head and said: "No, because of this, I heard that you had death intentions before. If you are really like this, then no matter how tolerant and considerate Zhiwan is, she will blame me for the rest of her life."

    "Sanniang, she, haha!" Li Yuan said with a gentle smile on his face, "There is something that I have never understood. It has been hanging in my heart for almost ten years. Today, I hope you can give me this little time.  An answer.¡±

    "Tang Gong, feel free to ask."

    Li Yuan nodded.??: "I was thinking, if I really had to betroth Sanniang to you back then, would you still raise an army to rebel against me?"

    Li Chongjiu said: "I am fighting for this world, not for Sanniang, but for myself. But after doing it for myself, I also think that everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world. I want to do my best to do useful things for the common people in this world."  .¡±

    "Every man is responsible for the rise and fall of the world. This is a shocking statement!"

    Li Yuan was silent for a while, and then said: "I heard that when I entered Chang'an City today, Xu Jingzong and Chu Suiliang gave you a record of martial virtue!"

    Li Chongjiu nodded and said: "I have seen it, and to be fair, your son is also a hero, but he has lost his magnanimity in tampering with the history books."

    Li Yuan heard this and sneered: "It's easy to say, but this is the fault of thousands of people. Who can not be afraid of the infamy behind his back?"

    "maybe!"

    "What happened to Erlang in the end?" At this point, Li Yuan shed a tear in his eyes.

    Li Chongjiu said: "He did not insult the dignity of the emperor. I have ordered people to collect his body and bury it with the honor of an emperor in the future."

    Li Yuan nodded and said, "It shows your kindness that you can do this."

    Li Chongjiu laughed at himself and said: "But some people say that I am trying to win people's hearts, but let others say it. No matter what, we were good friends during your lifetime. I still remember the time when we faced the Turks at Yanmen Gate more than ten years ago."  There are hundreds of thousands of troops. My son told me at that time that when you are fifty, you know your destiny. He is twenty years old this year. If he can live to be fifty, he will pacify the world in ten years, give birth to the people in ten years, and rule the world in ten years. In this way,  This is his life¡¯s ambition!¡±

    When Li Yuan heard Li Chongjiu say this, he covered his face and cried uncontrollably.  Li Chongjiu also shed tears.

    Li Yuan cried for a while, wiped away his tears and said: "My son has been wronged by Confucian scholars in this life, otherwise how could he have reached this point."

    Li Chongjiu also said: "I have been using these words of your master to spur me on today. It is easy to pacify the world, it is easy to give birth to the people, but it is difficult to govern the world!"

    Li Yuan nodded and said: "I am very pleased that you can say that. That's all. I believe this is the last time we talk. I have nothing to say as a subjugated king, but I hope you will treat the people well and don't forget to  Please treat Sanniang well!"

    "Thank you Taishan for your words!"

    After saying this, Li Chongjiu bowed his head and left the palace.  On the side, Li Zhiwan, Li Yuanji, Li Xiaogong, Li Shentong and others heard the commotion and rushed out together.

    Li Chongjiu smiled and nodded to Li Zhiwan, and Li Zhiwan suddenly burst into laughter.

    "But under the night, the beauty is extremely beautiful.
