Du Qi heard Li Yuan’s words and said: “The Retired Emperor is now saying good things for the emperor. Is it that the Retired Emperor no longer hates the emperor’s actions? He has forgotten Xuanwu in the past. The killing of the Gate.”

Li Yuan said: “The past follows the wind, where can I always remember it, after all, it is not appropriate to always indulge in the past. Moreover, as time goes by, it gradually wears away the past. Memory. Furthermore, you also persuaded me at the beginning to truly develop to the point where the Emperor Artifact has become the Emperor Artifact. I have an inescapable responsibility. If I did not want to take care of both sides, I would not develop to the same level as before.”

Du Qi said: “It’s great that the Retired Emperor can look away. Speaking of which, I really don’t blame His Majesty. The reason is simple. When he was the Prince of Qin, he was regarded as my elder. It’s just that he was successful. After the emperor, he is just the emperor and is no longer my elder.”

“Because the starting point the emperor considers is always the overall situation of the Imperial Court.”

“The Emperor , Is lonely.”

“Lonely family is not unreasonable. So the emperor dealt with things, impossible because of his personal emotions, thus changing his own decision, impossible because of private and abolished public. This point is Retired. The difference between Emperor His Majesty and Emperor His Majesty. You are a softer-hearted and more energetic person.”

Du Qi said: “You are not a qualified emperor, but an elder I will always respect.”

“hahaha……”

When Li Yuan heard this, he burst into laughter.

The laughter was quite cheerful.

It’s not bad for him to treat Du Qi like this.

It’s worth it!

After Li Yuan smiled, he smiled and said: “I heard your this remark, and I don’t know if you are detrimental or complimenting me. Du Erlang, your mouth, even if the time has passed, it has been There is no change.”

Du Qi said: “Retired Emperor is overpraised.”

For Li Yuan, Du Qi admires Li Yuan, so Du Qi is happy with Li Yuan, Talk about the past and reminisce about the past. The two were drinking and talking, and this scene fell in the eyes of Li Shimin and the others at the foot of the mountain, each of them was very nervous, worried about what the final situation would be.

Zhangsun Wuji suddenly said: “His Majesty, do you say that Du Qi will directly detain the Retired Emperor!”

Li Shimin said: “Fuji, Du Qi is now My enemy. But I also know Du Qi, he will not do such a stale thing. The most important thing is that Du Qi respects the Father Emperor very much, and their relationship is very good. You are worried about it, just watch it quietly.”

Zhangsun Wuji chuckled.

He is actually Du Qi Hulai, because once Du Qi really seizes Li Yuan, then the situation on both sides cannot be eased. At that time, perhaps Great Tang will be desperate and try his best to destroy Du Qi’s Xia Country.

Zhangsun Wuji believes that as long as Great Tang makes up his mind to fight, recklessly fights and draws all his forces, even if Du Qi’s battle strength is strong, he may not be able to resist it.

Even if a war of attrition is fought, Du Qi will die.

However, Zhangsun Wuji just thinks about this idea. He looked around and saw Wei Zheng, Li Jing and the others. These people were calm, not at all nervous.

In the expectation of everyone, the conversation between Li Yuan and Du Qi on the mountain continues. After recounting the old words, Li Yuan finally put aside the wine bottle in his hand, and said: “Drink the wine, and say it, let’s get back to business, it’s time to get the business done.”

Du Qi said:” Please tell me Retired Emperor.”

Li Yuan said: “Du Erlang, this time the battle of Guazhou has developed to the point where it is today. You give me a bottom line, how do you think about it? To take down Guazhou and bite off a piece of meat from Great Tang is still just for revenge and for justice.”

Du Qi said: “Retired Emperor, I once told the emperor His Majesty, I said if others didn’t offend me i will not offend others. This sentence, I still tell you, because I have my own feelings for Great Tang, I don’t want to attack Great Tang. So this time I entered Guazhou, It’s just for Great Tang to give me an explanation, nothing more.”

Paused, Du Qi continued: “I have never dealt with Great Tang from start to finish. But Hou Junji sent troops to attack me for the first time. He sent someone to assassinate me the second time. Could it be that Great Tang thinks I am good to bully?”

Li Yuan felt calm after hearing this.

Du Qi is just to ask for justice. There is room for relaxation and room for negotiation. What Li Yuan this time has to do is to preserve Guazhou, so that Guazhou can return to Great Tang’s rule.

On this basis, Li Yuan is advancing in this direction. Li Yuan said solemnly: “Du Erlang, you mean you can retreat. But Great Tang will give you an explanation, right.”

Du Qi said with a smile: “The Retired Emperor will come out in person, I How can I not retreat.”

Li Yuan stroked his beard under his jaw and said, “Let’s talk about it, what are the conditions for your youngster to retreat?”

Du Qi said:” Retired Emperor, I have four conditions here.”

Li Yuan said: “Speak and listen.”

It’s just Li Yuan’s heart, but it’s drumming. When Du Qi opens his mouth, there are four conditions, which are a bit unbearable, especially Li Yuan is also worried about Du Qi lion’s big mouth.

Du Qi said: “This time, I don’t impose harsh conditions like the last time. After all, the Retired Emperor personally interceded. Last time, I asked the Emperor His Majesty to issue an apology personally. Harsh.”

“This time, I don’t go in circles.”

“The first condition, Zhangsun Wuji once again climbed Niulan Mountain and knelt in front of me to apologize. I had previously I once said that if Great Tang goes to war with my Xia Country again, I will not let Zhangsun Wuji get better.”

“This is the first condition.”

Du Qi looked Towards Li Yuan, said: “Retired Emperor, can this condition be agreed?”

Li Yuan narrowed his eyes and said solemnly: “Your first condition, I promised it on behalf of the emperor.”

Li Yuan doesn’t have a good impression of Zhangsun Wuji. Anyway, he made Zhangsun Wuji kneel and apologize. In particular, Zhangsun Wuji brought up many things the emperor dealt with Du Qi. As Li Shimin’s number one conspirator, Zhangsun Wuji could not dissuade the emperor, and that was Zhangsun Wuji’s fault.

Li Yuan said: “What about the second condition?”

Du Qi continued: “The second condition is to open Guazhou and let my Xia Country merchants enter and exit. Commodities in Xia Country must not be blocked. After the war between Xia Country and Great Tang, Guazhou often seized goods to block the entry and exit of goods. Nowadays, Guazhou has opened a market as a border location, and the two sides exchanged markets. And I Xia Country’s commercial products do not pay taxes in Guazhou, and let my Xia Country’s goods go in and out.”

Li Yuan wrinkled and frowned after hearing this: “Du Erlang, I am afraid this condition is a bit overwhelming. What I can ensure is that Great Tang can open Guazhou, allowing Xia Country merchants to enter and exit, and Great Tang merchants to enter and exit, and will not prevent merchants from both parties from doing business. However, the taxation of Xia Country merchants must be completely exempted. It is definitely impossible. This is equivalent to losing power and insulting the country. “

paused, Li Yuan continued: “Du Erlang, your conditions must not be too harsh. Otherwise, it is difficult to talk about this matter, I hope you can understand.”

Du Qi looked at Li Yuan’s serious expression. To tell the truth, Li Yuan is no official and lighthearted. After he is not an emperor, even if he is older, Li Yuan is more wise and smart.

Du Qi shook the head and said: “Retired Emperor, I took the initiative to withdraw from Guazhou. I have never captured Guazhou. Great Tang’s face has been preserved. It is just an open market and exemption of Xia Country merchants from taxes. , Not at all. On the contrary, it can also promote business development.”

Li Yuan frowned, but soon after said: “Yes, I am approved.”

paused , Li Yuan continued: “Du Erlang, what is your third condition?”

Du Qi said: “My third condition is the last time Hou Junji sent troops to attack me. This time Hou Junji again sent soldiers to ambush me and assassinate me. Although Hou Junji is dead, things can’t be settled like that. Hou Junji’s family, I don’t ask the emperor to punish me, but I want to exile Lingnan and never return to Cháng’ān.”

His!

Li Yuan complexion slightly changed.

This condition is a bit cruel, even a bit murderous. However, Li Yuan knows that this is exactly in line with Du Qi’s temperament, Du Qi has always been like this, A Tooth For A Tooth Blood For Blood, a master who never takes revenge.

Du Qi is not surprised at Hou Junji for Li Yuan.

But when it comes to this matter, Li Yuan cannot agree to Li Shimin, so Li Yuan said: “This condition, I want to tell the emperor, ask the emperor to make a decision.”

Du Qi said: “No problem.”

Li Yuan said: “What about your fourth condition?”
