Summoning the Peak of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 2263 The Conspiracy of Li Si, Deputy Commander of the Bad Person

Chapter 2259: Li Sizhi's conspiracy

This time Li Tang's top management was very united, and they jointly opposed it.

Of course, they were not opposed to peace negotiations, nor were they opposed to ceding land for compensation, but they were opposed to Li Shimin's resignation from the throne and his surrender to Qin.

If Li Shimin really resigned from the throne and proclaimed himself a vassal to the Qin State, then the Tang State would change from an independent kingdom to a subsidiary principality of Qin State, or even a Hou State.

Even if the Tang State still retains the right of autonomy, it is still a great shame and humiliation if it is only a nominal vassal state, and it will undoubtedly be a fatal blow to the morale of the Tang State's army and people.

This is no longer asking for peace, but begging for peace. Even if the country is really spared temporarily, it is nothing more than drinking poison to quench its thirst, and the final situation may be even worse.

Of course, Li Shimin knew about this, but he had no choice. Although drinking poison to quench his thirst would make him thirstier, it was better than dying of thirst immediately.

It wasn't until this moment that Li Shimin really understood what Jiang Shang meant by "an unbearable price".

Regret, regret, regret.

Li Shimin's intestines were almost remorseful, but he still paid the price for his arrogance.

It is useless for all officials to object, after all, they can't come up with a better plan, they just oppose it for the sake of opposition.

After the meeting adjourned, Li Shimin left behind Li Kui and other confidants, and continued to discuss what to do next, but he did not think that Li Kui was also an opponent.

"If you don't relinquish the throne and surrender to the Qin State, it is absolutely impossible for the Qin State to withdraw its troops." Li Shimin said bitterly.

"But even so, Qin Jun may not give up." Li Kui said in a deep voice.

Li Shimin was speechless, but at this moment, a voice came from below.

"My humble minister Li Si has a plan. If it complements the master's plan, he may temporarily cease fighting with the Qin army and gain some breathing space for our Tang Dynasty."

After hearing the words, everyone's eyes shifted subconsciously, focusing on the young scholar of the last people, and his name was Li Si.

That's right, it was Li Si, Prime Minister of Qin.

Li Si was one of Qin Shihuang's carrying figures, and was implanted into the Li family after he was born, but he still had the identity of a legalist disciple.

The Legalists were staunch supporters of the Qin State. Whether it was the leader Hu Zhao or the disciples, most of them supported and served in the Qin State.

In fact, Li Si was more optimistic about the Qin State. Whether it was the system or the law, the Qin State was simply his ideal country, but his status as a child of the Li family meant that he was destined not to be an official in the Qin State.

After Li Si completed his studies, he left Legalism and returned to Tang.

For his own family, Li Shimin was never stingy, so naturally he boldly reused Li Si.

At that time, when the bad guys were first established, Li Xiuning was isolated and in desperate need of help, so Li Shimin transferred Li Si to serve as Li Xiuning's deputy, that is, the post of deputy commander of the bad guys.

Li Shimin dared to let him be the deputy commander-in-chief of a bad person, just a newcomer who had just started to become an official, which showed how bold he was in employing people, but Li Shimin's decision this time was obviously wrong.

Letting Li Si, who is at the golden political level, handle the intelligence is simply killing chickens with a sledgehammer, but it is also with Li Si's assistance that the bad people under Li Xiuning's leadership can develop so quickly, but the opponent is too strong.

Under the leadership of Jia Xu, the overall strength of the black ice platform is much stronger than that of bad guys, but they are basically at a disadvantage in any fight, which seriously affects Li Si's promotion.

Without enough credit, even Li Shimin couldn't directly promote Li Si, so that after so many years, Li Si still stayed in the position of deputy commander of the bad guy.

Afterwards, Li Xiuning voluntarily resigned from the position of bad guy because of his incompetence, which caused the bad guy to lose his vitality.

After Li Xiuning resigned, Li Siben thought that he would be the second bad handsome man, but he didn't expect Li Shimin to directly hand over the bad handsome position to this great master in order to win over Yuan Tiangang.

Li Si missed a big opportunity, so he could only lurk and wait patiently. Now he finally got this opportunity.

"Li Si, I just know what you are talking about? Military and national affairs are not trivial." Li Shimin said with a blank face, but in his heart he was extremely expecting that Li Si would bring him a surprise.

Li Tang now lacks talents, especially the talent for strategy.

Li Shimin didn't listen to Jiang Shang's strategy, so that at this point, he was basically insulated from Jiang Shang, a great talent, so he urgently hoped to get the assistance of other resourceful people to save this place that is in ruins. Tang country on the edge.

Will you be that person?leece.Li Shimin thought to himself.

"My lord, just relinquishing the throne, becoming a minister, or even ceding land and paying compensation is not enough to impress the Qin State and let me keep Chang'an, because after taking Chang'an, Qin State will get more." Li Si took it easy. road.

"Then what price do you have to pay to get Qin to allow me to keep Chang'an in Tang Dynasty?" Li Shimin asked.

"It's very simple, get married." Li Jing said lightly.

As soon as the voice fell, it aroused everyone's excitement.

"Marriage? Li Si, I thought you were paying attention, but it turned out to be a foolish trick after a long time. I think you've lost your head."

"Yeah, it's not even possible to become a king and become a minister, so how can marriage be possible?"

"Qin Wang Yinghao is not the kind of man who would put his career aside for the sake of lack of color. Beauty tricks are useless to him."

"Indeed, and I've heard that King Qin's wives and concubines are all stunning, and my Tang Dynasty may not have comparable beauties, and Ying Hao may not be willing to marry my Great Tang."

"That's right..."

Everyone said one sentence to another, accusing Li Si of such a bad idea, and even Li Shimin showed disappointment.

Li Si didn't care about everyone's accusations, and said neither humble nor overbearing: "The marriage that I mentioned below is not about the marriage."

"Then what's the point?" Li Shimin frowned.

"It's about the marriage partner. If this person is chosen as the marriage partner, Ying Hao will definitely agree to marry him."

Hearing this, Li Shimin frowned even tighter. Did he already guess who Li Si was talking about, but he didn't think that Ying Hao would give up Chang'an for a woman.

Li Shimin guessed the candidate, but the others didn't, so they all asked, "Who will it be?"

"Princess Xiuning."

Hearing Li Si's words, everyone showed disbelief. They obviously didn't think Li Xiuning had such a great charm.

Li Si didn't have any intention to explain, and said to himself: "Princess Xiuning actually has two identities. If I go to Qin to make a marriage in my capacity as Princess Datang, it is naturally impossible to play such a big role." .

But if it's another identity, that's not necessarily the case. "

"Oh? Why doesn't this king know that apart from being the Princess of the Tang Dynasty, what other identities does Xiu Ning have?"

Li Shimin said with a blank face, he was actually a little angry, and felt that Li Si was playing tricks.

Li Si was smiling lightly, his lips and teeth moved lightly, but he didn't make a sound, and the message he wanted to express was conveyed silently.

Li Shimin understood lip language, and his face changed drastically when he saw it. He couldn't believe it at first, then got up with a livid face, and walked out without saying a word.

Li Shimin's reaction like this also made everyone a little puzzled. They didn't understand why the always calm lord lost his composure.

Li Kui approached Li Si and asked, "Li Si, what did you say to the lord?"

Li Si sighed, "It's a matter of the bottom line that the lord can't accept."
