Datang: Ten Years of Proton, Leading an Army of Millions to Return

Chapter 16: Li Shimin asks himself, I am not afraid of them!
Li Shimin sighed: "So, for the sake of the overall situation of the Tang Dynasty, I can only commit myself to you and go to the Turks."

"As for your roots in Datang, Su Dingfang and the others, I will take good care of them for you."

Li Kuan ate his food and said, "So, for Li Chengqian, you gave up on me."

"Are you ashamed? You used your own son to exchange for peace in the Tang Dynasty."

When Li Shimin heard this, there was no remorse or self-blame on his brows, and he said without hesitation: "Chang'an City today is facing internal and external troubles, and my father and I are absolutely not sure of defeating Xieli."

"Even for the Weishui Covenant, the emperor worked hard to get Xieli's consent. For the future of the Tang Dynasty, this must be done."

Li Kuan smiled calmly: "Today you send your son and supplies because you are afraid! You are cowardly! You can't wait to send me, Li Kuan, and then respectfully ask Turk to leave, because you are afraid that Turk will drive you down. I'm also afraid that if I, Li Kuan, stay in Datang, it will affect your favorite prince's succession to Datong."

"You're afraid! You're afraid of everything!"

"As the saying goes, if there is one, there is another. Today you send so many good things to Turks. Tomorrow, you may send technology, supplies, and princesses to Tubo, and to other small countries. Thousands of craftsmen in the Tang Dynasty worked hard to research it of hard work."

"Help them deal with Datang, father, this is your character."

Li Kuan spoke calmly, but in his heart he was disdainful.

Li Shimin is so kind to those foreigners around him!Not only Turks, but also Tubo!

Give people a lot of materials and technology, just for a symbolic visit.

This is the so-called coming of all nations to Korea.

very scary!
If it hadn't been for him, Datang would have been even more glorious!

Because of him, Tubo and other foreign tribes rose rapidly, and it would not take long before they would pose an endless threat to the Tang Dynasty.

even!Later, Tubo also attacked Chang'an, and the people of Tang Dynasty suffered countless losses and were bullied by others!
The Xuanwumen incident also had a bad start.

As a result, during the 280-[-]-year history of the Tang Dynasty, the royal family of the Li and Tang Dynasties continued to fight against each other. The more famous Li Longji spent his whole life guarding against the crown prince.

"you!!"

Li Shimin was so angry that he couldn't help but point at Li Kuan.

But calm down quickly.

As a concubine, I will go to Turkic tomorrow, and he decided to send it off, so it's normal to feel a little resentful towards myself.

Li Shimin took a deep breath, calmed down and said: "Kuan'er, governing the country is not that simple! You don't just beat others if you have grievances. Jieli's troops came to the city. If you are not careful, the people of Chang'an will be affected, and the mountains and rivers will be shattered. Among the many methods, only an alliance is the most suitable at the moment! "

"Father, this is for the sake of the Great Tang, and also for the people of the world!!"

Li Shimin's voice became much higher, and even turned into annoyance.

He was telling Li Kuan that he was right, and he was also telling himself that his decision was not wrong! !
Signing the covenant can save the people and the court from disaster, just sending supplies and Li Kuan.

You are right!

Not afraid! !

Seeing that Li Kuan was not intimidated by his aura, Li Shimin's eyes flickered, and he secretly thought that he was indeed the king of Chu. If it was Li Chengqian and Li Tai, they would be so afraid that they would just want to dig a hole after being coaxed by him.

Li Shimin took a deep breath again and said seriously: "Kuan'er, your sacrifice is indeed great. Everyone can see it. My father will remember your sacrifice, so will the court, and even more so all the people of the Tang Dynasty! This will be This is the first step for our Tang Dynasty to enter the prosperous age!"

Li Kuan was now willing to speak. He looked out at the stars in the sky and sighed: "The prosperous times. The prosperous times of the feudal dynasties in the past are the prosperous times of the people. They are just the prosperous times of the noble families and high-ranking people."

Li Shimin was stunned by these words. After a while, he laughed, picked up a piece of meat and put it into Li Kuan's bowl.

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about that."

"Come on, Kuan'er, this is your favorite fish fillet when you were young, please taste it quickly."

"And this, Hu Biscuit, haha! When you were a child, you pestered your father to buy it for you."

Li Kuan looked at the meat and Li Shimin breaking the cake, shook his head and said: "Father, how long has it been since you understood my life."

Li Shimin stopped breaking the cake.

His eyes were stunned.

Li Kuan continued: "You said it all, this is what I liked to eat when I was young, but now, after so many years, do you think people will still be the same as before?"

"People's desires will gradually change with age. I, Li Kuan, have long disliked these foods."

Of course he doesn't like it.

He is not the sick Li Kuan from before!

It's the brand new and unique King of Chu, Li Kuan! !

Li Shimin didn't know how to speak when he heard the words.

indeed.

He pays little attention to the life of this concubine. After all, human energy is limited. Over the years, he has been fighting in the north and south. Even Li Chengqian and Li Tai paid little attention to it, let alone the concubine Li Kuan.

Li Kuan glanced at him and said slowly: "Father, stop being so pretentious. It's really disgusting."

"After I leave, if you have time, you should pay more attention to the prince."

"Some people, once they are not caught strictly, the road will go astray."

"Okay, I, Li Kuan, have eaten enough. Father, please continue eating."

Li Kuan left his seat and returned to his original position to read the art of war.

Li Shimin was stunned by what he said, and only felt that there was an unknown anger in his heart that he wanted to release, but!He still held back!
He looked back at Li Kuan with an incomprehensible look in his eyes. He didn't know what he was thinking, and finally turned into a long sigh.

"Your elder brother, Father will watch."

"After all, it was you who exchanged for his stability. The Tang Dynasty in his hands must be strong! It is worthy of your sacrifice today!"

Li Shimin will take this matter at ease, and he will supervise Li Chengqian's every move to avoid going astray.

After dinner.

After asking the maid to take away the things, Li Shimin began to deal with government affairs again.

He didn't stop until it was time to fall asleep.

"Kuan'er, it's getting late. Let's just sleep here today."

"Father, I will also accompany you."

"Tomorrow, remember to bring more warm clothes. The weather in the Turks is not as good as that in the Tang Dynasty. You should take precautions."

Li Shimin gave suggestions.

He looked worried about his son's long journey.

Li Kuan saw it and smiled: "Okay, I will do it."

Not much to say.

Lights out, sleep.

Waiting for delivery tomorrow.

And this night is very meaningful.

It was the first time Li Shimin slept in the Taiji Palace, and it was also the first time he slept in the same room as Li Kuan. Before when the children were young, even if they had time, they always slept with the children of Empress Changsun.

As for Li Kuan….
I haven't hurt him since I was a child.

perhaps…….
It was the farewell to Li Kuan tomorrow that awakened the little bit of fatherly love in Li Shimin's heart.
.
………………………….
vertical day.

The gates from the Imperial City to the outside of Chang'an City were all wide open, and there were Jinwu Guards standing neatly on both sides, leaving a road in the middle for carriages to pass.

On both sides of the road, there were many people who had been waiting for a long time. Seeing the seriousness of the Jinwu Guard, they all knew that the announcement yesterday was not fake, and that the King of Chu was really going to be sent to Turkic to usher in peace.
