    A large amount of cold sweat began to appear on Master Li's face. He wiped the sweat on his head and calmed down his emotions. Li Shimin's firm and majestic look just now completely calmed him down.  My mind went blank for a while, and I was able to recover somewhat with the action of wiping my sweat.  Master Li looked at Li Shimin, his tone softened, or softened a lot, and said: "His Royal Highness, King Qin, for the sake of peace and friendship between the two countries, I advise you to consider this issue again. Besides, you are the Taoist University of Shaanxi Province.  Manager, I am not your father. It is not good to say it to death like this." Li Shimin said coldly: "When my father sent me to go to war, he gave me the right to do things on my own, and I took him in.  General Li used this power because we, the Tang Dynasty, formally negotiated with your Xia State, asking you to release him, but you refused to let him go. General Li ran back on his own. It was too late for us to welcome him, so how could we possibly return him?  Give it to you? General Li is trapped in the enemy camp. He is unyielding and loyal to our Tang Dynasty. How can we hand him over and chill the hearts of the soldiers? " Master Li sighed: "It seems,  This envoy can only make this request when he directly meets the Emperor of Tang Dynasty. Your Highness, King Qin, I would like to remind you one last thing. Li Shiji is a traitor general of the Xia Kingdom and a murderer who attempted to murder the King of Xia. Please take in the rebel.  He just affects the friendly relations between the two countries. I'm afraid this responsibility is not something you can afford." Li Shimin said coldly: "Ambassador Li, please pay attention to your words. You are in my military tent now.  Among them, you want to take away our general of the Tang Dynasty. Who gave you the power and the courage to threaten our general of the Tang Dynasty? Don't mention this matter again. Otherwise, I, Li Shimin,  I know you, my subordinates may not have such good patience and temper." Master Li's face changed, and he saw many Tang generals on the right side of the tent, all glaring at him with beards and eyes.  , some people's hands have already been pressed on the hilt of the sword, and the air is filled with an invisible murderous aura, making Master Li almost suffocated.  Master Li's legs were shaking slightly. He was originally an internal historian of the Sui Dynasty. He was so frightened that he almost peed his pants during the Jiangdu mutiny. Later, he followed the Xiaoguo Army northward and followed the civil and military officials of the Sui Dynasty.  Together with the officials, he took refuge with Dou Xia. This time he was promoted to the rank of Minister of Rites and went on a mission to Tangying. However, meeting so many majestic and murderous soldiers still made his heart beat faster and his breathing became rapid.  .  Seeing this, Li Shimin smiled slightly and waved his hand: "Okay, okay, don't be like this. We are guests from afar. Besides, our Tang Dynasty also has a peaceful and friendly relationship with the Xia Kingdom. Don't make it so tense, but Ambassador Li,  I would like to remind you that this is the Tang Army camp. As I said just now, if you have anything to say, I will reply to you if I can answer it. If I can't answer it, you can go see your father and discuss it again. Here,  My brothers have bad tempers and straightforward tempers. If something unpleasant happens, it will affect the overall situation of the two countries." Master Li gritted his teeth and said seriously: "Then,  Your Highness, King Qin, are you unwilling to handle this matter according to the wishes of King Xia?" Li Shimin nodded expressionlessly: "There is no room for negotiation on this matter, Ambassador Li, please don't mention it again, just say it directly.  , what is the second thing you want to negotiate?" Master Li curled his lips and said seriously: "The second thing is that King Xia asked me to convey the request of King Qin to the east capital.  Encircle, withdraw the troops back to Guanzhong, and stop fighting with Hua Qiangguo." As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the tent, with voices of doubt and curses. Li Shimin's expression remained unchanged, and he waved his hand to stop the generals' commotion.  He said calmly: "Ambassador Li, why does King Xia want us to stop our troops and return to Guanzhong now? What does the war between us Tang and Huaqiang have to do with him?" Master Li smiled slightly and said: "King Xia said,  The Sui Emperor lost his way, and all the heroes in the world came together and worked together to overthrow the three kingdoms of Sui, Tang, Daxia, and Huaqiang. The monarchs were all former subjects of the Sui Dynasty. They only stood up and established their own foundations after suffering from tyranny. Now the world  The war has finally subsided, and the people who have been tortured by the war can finally take a breath. At this time, we should recuperate and stop attacking, so that this troubled world can end. Since Wang Shichong replaced the Sui Dynasty, Huaqiang Kingdom has not had any problems.  They abused the people and did not take the initiative to send troops to attack the Tang Dynasty. It was unbenevolent and righteous for the Tang Dynasty to send troops to attack for no reason. " "And if the war breaks out in the world, the people of the country will be in trouble again, and the people of the Central Plains will suffer from military disasters.  He said that the people of Guanzhong in the Tang Dynasty would also be harmed by the heavy burden of the war. Therefore, my King Xia proposed that the two families should stop fighting and repair each other and return to their old territories, which would be a favor to the King of Xia. " Li Shimin smiled and shook his head.  He shook his head and said, "Then if King XiaIf you love peace so much, why do you want to gather a large army and prepare to attack Luo Yi in the north?  You yourself can't stop fighting with force, so how can you let others do such a thing?  " Master Li's face turned slightly red and said: "That's different. Luo Yi has repeatedly provoked and harassed our border, killed my border residents, and plundered my property. He had new and old grudges in the past, and he had to avenge them.  This was made clear when our two countries negotiated peace. Luo Yi was not included in the conditions for peace.  " Li Shimin's eyes flashed coldly: "That is to say, your Xia Kingdom can attack Luo Yi and our Tang vassal, King Yan Luo Yi, but our Tang Dynasty cannot attack Wang Shichong?  Is that what you mean?  Master Li probably felt that this was unreasonable. He curled up his lips and said, "What King Xia means is that Luoyang City is high and deep and well-defended. The Tang Army may be able to win in the field, but if they attack the Eastern Capital, I'm afraid  It is difficult to conquer. When the war lasts for a long time and the troops are in trouble, the people of both countries will suffer in dire straits. It is better to stop the army. If the Tang Dynasty attacks the prefectures and counties it occupied this time, my lord is also willing to mediate.  Wang Shichong asked Wang Shichong to cut off a part to the Tang Dynasty as a thank you gift for retreating troops. What did His Highness King Qin think?  " Li Shimin smiled and waved his hand: "King Xia is really powerful. He can also make the decision for Wang Shichong, a self-proclaimed emperor, and cede states and counties for him.  But this time, why should I return these prefectures and counties that I have conquered to Wang Shichong?  If you, Ambassador Li, were in my position, would you agree to such a request?  "Master Li's tongue seemed to be tied up in a knot, and he was mumbling and unable to speak. Li Shimin's eyes flashed coldly, and he stood up and said, "Ambassador Li, I don't agree to this request, but please come back now.  What a coincidence. Tomorrow I will fully attack Luoyang City. This time, I will let you see with your own eyes how vulnerable the so-called Luoyang City is to the elite soldiers and generals of the Tang Dynasty.  Hit!  "
