I’m Marquis in Great Tang

Li Shimin’s eyes gradually became deep and cold, and said: “Du Qi, you have to know that it is not a good thing to use Tibetan power. If it is because of you, it will cause countless Great Tang The people were slaughtered by Tibetans, how can you bear it?”

Du Qi shook his head after hearing this: “His Majesty, I have heard someone say something like this. If anyone, I’m here to persuade you to be generous without knowing the cause of the matter. Then, you must stay away from such a person, because it is easy to accidentally injure you during lightning strikes. To put this in another way, I’ll replace generosity with worrying about the country and the people. Whenever I meet people who say they are worried about the country and the people, and when they come up with nothing else, they say they are worried about the country and the people, considering the lives and deaths of the people. Such people are terrifying, and you have to stay away from them. If you are next to such people, they are easily struck by lightning.”

Li Shimin said solemnly: “Du Qi, you are presumptuous.”

He no longer calls Du Qi or 杜Erlang at this time. What Du Qi said just now refers to Sang Shuhuai. He, it was Li Shimin who persuaded Du Qi, saying that Tibetan killed the people, how could he bear it?

Du Qi shrugged, continued: “I have been at war with His Majesty now, what can be more presumptuous? Speaking of which, His Majesty is now trying to conquer me and hesitate to conquer me and attack me. , Doesn’t this cause casualties, and will not cause hundreds of people’s families to be destroyed?”

Paused, Du Qi continued: “If His Majesty has a benevolent heart, and now just retreat, Tibet also retreats, everything is in peace. Isn’t it better? The source of the matter is not what I want to do, Du Qi, I did not invade Great Tang, did not attack Great Tang, the cause of the matter was His Majesty, it was you who wanted to attack me.”

“As for Tibet, my consistent opinion is that people who are not my race must have different opinions.”

“Of course I know that Tibetan troops stationed on the border and invaded Great Tang easily hurt the people. But Tibet is I will enter troops. It does not depend on what I want, but on what decision His Majesty makes.”

Du Qi continued: “If His Majesty really wants to go to war, Tibet will naturally attack. His Majesty and his Blaming me, it’s better to withdraw your troops. This is the most fundamental thing.”

Li Shimin said: “Du Erlang, what a sharp mouth! Back then, you had a bright tongue and flowers, and even Retired Emperor. I’m confused, and I still don’t change anything.”

Du Qi said: “His Majesty, I always deny the fact that my mouth is so powerful. I don’t play with my mouth. I always state the facts and explain the most basic truth. Take Tibetean as an example, because it started with His Majesty, not what I ordered Tibet to do.”

Li Shimin stared at Du Qi, his eyes sharper than ever.

Du Qi responded with a chuckle, he now has enough cards to fight Li Shimin. Because Li Shimin and Du Qi are different. Li Shimin has a big family, but he dare not stake all on one throw.

It’s Yang Guang. Perhaps once he encounters a challenge, Yang Guang can leave it alone and do it first.

Li Shimin is different. Li Shimin is a very promising monarch and thinks more about it. Especially when Du Qi is not weak, Li Shimin is even more impossible to start the war at will.

After a long time, Li Shimin opened the mouth and said: “Du Qi, I really underestimated you.”

Du Qi slightly smiled and said: “His Majesty underestimated me, However, I dare not look down upon you. You count it, the former emperor is now the Retired Emperor, who looked down upon you so much that he stays in the deep palace all day and has nothing to do.”

” Crown Prince Li Jiancheng, because I look down on you, the grass at the head of the tomb is probably zhang high now; the Turkic used to look down on you, but it was destroyed by you. In short, look down on His Majesty, that is self-defeating.”

Du Qi said: “I never dare to underestimate His Majesty, only spare no effort. So His Majesty really wants to go to war. Perhaps he told Great Tang that the situation is the beginning of another large-scale war.”

Li Shimin said resolutely: “You are threatening me.”

Du Qi’s eyes were a little more determined, and he said: “His Majesty can be understood as a threat or I can be understood as a speak frankly .Because in the current situation, His Majesty has no choice at all.”

“His Majesty, actually think about it carefully, what is the conflict between you and me?”

>

“not at all.”

“I have always been grateful for His Majesty’s kindness and regarded Great Tang as the Sect Master country. So I have been expanding westward, wanting to play Western Regions, wanting Go to India, I want to go farther to Persia. Even more how, in Great Tang, and my family, and my parents, brother, how could I attack Great Tang?”

“That is impossible!”

Du Qi said: “What I can guarantee is that if His Majesty does not take the initiative to attack me, then at least His Majesty’s lifetime, I shouldn’t be attacking Great Tang , The two sides will be in peace.”

“In addition, although His Majesty is in charge of Great Tang, there are actually too many things to conquer around His Majesty. For example, Tibet, such as the Nanzhao Kingdom in the south, Goguryeo in the north, and even the Wa Kingdom in the southeast, were all conquered by His Majesty. “

“It’s not that I said, His Majesty can take all the conquests of these countries, and then complete the development of Lingnan, it is already a great achievement. So between me and His Majesty, in fact, not at all real conflicts and contradictions. “

Du Qi said: “It’s a pity that His Majesty listened to the slander and sent troops to attack me. This is what happened today. “

Li Shimin’s eyes narrowed, with a stern expression, and suddenly he laughed again.

“Good Du Qi, what a sharp mouth. “

Li Shimin speaks.

At this time, Li Shimin has a smile on his face. However, Li Shimin looked solemn and continued: “Du Qi, you dare to swear, For the rest of your life, won’t you invade Great Tang? “

Du Qi laughed and said: “His Majesty, the oath I can make is that I will not take the initiative to attack Great Tang throughout my life. if others didn’t offend me i will not offend others, if Great Tang wants to attack me, just like now, I am in the Western Regions, but His Majesty is here to pick peaches and intends to deal with me, then I can’t just sit and wait . His Majesty, you said no. “

Li Shimin said: “Du Qi, you are really not simple. I regret it now, I regret that I let you come to Western Regions. I didn’t expect this to come to Western Regions, but the tiger returned to the mountains. “

Du Qi said: “Even if His Majesty didn’t agree at the beginning, I still have other ways to come to Western Regions.” It can only be said that when His Majesty listened to Zhangsun Wuji, he released the beast in my heart. If it weren’t for His Majesty who had heard Zhangsun Wuji and didn’t target my Du family, there wouldn’t be me going to Western Regions to run a business. “

paused, Du Qi continued: “His Majesty and Zhangsun Wuji are good, but they lack the heart and mind of Chancellor Fang, and they don’t have the paternal pattern and loyalty. For people like Zhangsun Wuji, family and personal interests come first. “

Li Shimin said: “You don’t have to say anything about Zhangsun Wuji, I have my own plans. Paused, Li Shimin said: “Du Qi, I can not attack Western Regions, but I have the conditions. “

“impossible! “

Du Qi didn’t want to refuse directly.

Li Shimin said: “I haven’t put forward my conditions. You now refuse directly. Du Qi, you refused too quickly. “

Du Qi said: “His Majesty’s conditions, needless to say, I can roughly guess one or two. “

Li Shimin said: “Let’s listen. “

Du Qi said with a smile at the corner of his mouth, “The first condition is to ask for weapons, that is, the three weapons mines in my hand, grenade and Gunpowder, right? “

Li Shimin murmured the names of mines, grenades and Gunpowder, and said: “Du Qi, you guessed it well, as long as you hand over these three weapons, Great Tang can also develop them. I can retreat. “

Du Qi said: “Definitely impossible. “

For Du Qi, today’s landmines, grenades and other weapons are equivalent to later generations of nuclear weapons. In this era of cold weapons, gunpowders, grenades and landmines have tremendous lethality and usefulness. Du Qi impossible is directly handed over to Li Shimin.

Hand over, that is the enemy.

It is self-destruction.
