Wang Zi'an hated him and poked Li Shimin on the forehead.
The poke made Li Shimin raise his head repeatedly and almost fell over from the stool.
Fortunately, Wang Zi'an poked his hand twice and stopped. Then he sat upright in embarrassment, bared his teeth and rubbed his forehead with his hands.
This guy's tricks are really shady, I hope he doesn't steal the bag.
"Besides, what's the point of sending troops this year? Just because Xue Yantuo came to ask for help? Just because Mobei suffered from severe cold and snow?"
Wang Zi'an was drunk, so he simply let down his bun, held the wine glass, walked to the door, and looked at the sky where snowflakes started to scatter sporadically again.
"I asked you to kill Lao Cheng at the cost of an arm and a thigh. Do you want to do it? Injure the enemy a thousand times and damage yourself eight hundred. Only fools like Li Er and Du Ruhui would do this... Uh - —”
Being blown by the cool breeze, I felt so drunk that I couldn't help but vomit all over the floor.
What about Xue Yantuo asking for help, what about Du Ruhui Silly Que...
Li Shimin and Cheng Yaojing wanted to ask further, but saw that this guy was already extremely drunk. He could only smile bitterly, step forward and help him back to the bed.
In a daze, Wang Zi'an felt like he was being lifted onto the bed by two people. He waved his hand weakly.
"I'm drunk and sleepy, please go away. I want to bring Qin to you tomorrow..."
Then the snoring started.
"You are so drunk that you can still compose your poems. This poetry talent is truly unparalleled!"
Looking at Wang Zi'an who was as drunk as mud, Li Shimin couldn't help but sigh and shook his head.
"I'm drunk and want to sleep, please go away. I want to bring you Qin tomorrow morning. The poem is a good poem. It floats out of the dust, leisurely and has the style of celebrities from the Wei and Jin Dynasties. It's a pity -"
"What's a pity? Didn't you say this poem is quite good?"
Cheng Yaojin scratched his head in confusion and looked at Li Shimin with a regretful look on his face.
"It's a pity that he came out of the dust - he uttered the truth after drinking. It seems that he doesn't want to be an official from the bottom of his heart. I'm still thinking that I will find a suitable opportunity to show off my cards with him in the next few days and ask him to help me." I, it seems..."
We still have to think about it in the long term!
Li Shimin shook his head with a complicated expression, sighed, leaned down, and carefully tucked the prince into bed. Seeing that he was sleeping peacefully, Li Shimin straightened up and let out a sigh of relief.
When he looked up, he found that Cheng Yaojin was still staring blankly at his forehead. Suddenly his heart became angry, and he subconsciously raised his hand to touch his aching forehead and kicked it.
"You old man, why don't you clear the table? Why don't you let me clean it myself?"
"Speak as if you have never done it."
Cheng Yaojin curled his lips, muttered and went to clean up.
Li Shimin looked at Wang Zi'an who was sleeping soundly. Thinking of what Wang Zi'an said, his eyes darkened unconsciously.
Will Xue Yantuo come to ask for help?
Walking out of the gate of Wang Zi'an's house, Li Shimin looked at the snowflakes that had gradually grown bigger, and suddenly said something.
"Zhijie, what can you do about money?"
Cheng Yaojin narrowed his eyes, put his hands behind his back, and kept walking.
"Did you know that in Wagang, what would we do if we encountered a big deal that one person couldn't handle?"
"what to do?"
Li Shimin asked subconsciously.
"Of course we all do it together. If we make a big bowl and drink together, if we don't do it well, we will lose our heads together. Eighteen years later, we will be a good man again..."
Li Shimin looked at the sky speechlessly.
This old man has a gangster streak that is hard to get rid of!
…
Meeting on the second day.
"Dear dear friends, if there is something going on, you will come to court, but if there is nothing, you will retreat."
Li Shimin was sitting in the Golden Palace, looking majestically at the civil and military officials in the palace. His voice was calm and there was no hint of happiness or anger.
"Your Majesty, Du Ruhui, has this report. In the early hours of this morning, an envoy from Xue Yantuo came to the capital overnight to pray for an audience with His Majesty, saying that he had something important to report -"
"Xue Yantuo really has an envoy asking to see you?!"
Li Shimin leaned forward suddenly and looked at Du Ruhui without blinking.
Du Ruhui was a little confused when he was asked, could he joke about this important military matter?
What he didn't know was that Li Shimin was even more shocked at this time.
What that bastard said is true, it's all true, Xue Yantuo really has an envoy asking to see him!
So Mobei suffered severe cold?
Thinking of this, Li Shimin couldn't help but take a deep breath of air.
According to the spy's report, the prince sat at home and never left Chang'an. How did he know?
Could it be that there are really unpredictable ghosts and gods?
"Your Majesty, this is absolutely true. At this time, the envoy from Xue Yantuo's tribe is waiting outside the palace, waiting for your Majesty's call——"
Du Ruhui suppressed the doubts in his heart and replied in a deep voice.
"It is reported that Xue Yantuo's envoy has paid an audience——"
Li Shimin came to his senses immediately, waved his hand and gave the order directly.
Looking at the envoy Xue Yantuo who was prostrate on the ground and prostrated, Li Shimin raised his hand and said in harmony.
"Your envoy has come a long way and has worked hard all the way, so please forgive me——"
"Thank you, His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty——"
When Xue Yantuo's envoy heard this, he lay down on the ground and kowtowed a few times, and then got up from the ground.
"The envoy of Xue Yantuo, my subordinate, came to see the Great Tang Heavenly Khan on the order of the leader. I specially offer a hundred horses, a hundred cattle and sheep, and a thousand furs -"
This is very comfortable!
It’s not about the size of the gift!
Li Shimin straightened his back unconsciously, with an enigmatic smile on his face.
"You came here this time, but because our tribe encountered a heavy snowfall that has never happened in a century, the cattle and sheep froze to death?"
"How did your Majesty know?"
The Huns envoy could not help but be shocked and dumbfounded. Unexpectedly, this news has reached the ears of the Emperor of Tang Dynasty!
Seeing the reaction of the Huns envoy, the ministers in the court couldn't help but stare.
It really is!
Your Majesty, you all know when you can master pinching!
Seeing the shocked and incomprehensible expressions of the civil and military officials in the palace, Li Shimin felt as if he had drank ice-cold sour plum soup in the summer, and his heart was filled with tears.
"But that Jieli Khan begged his neighbor, passed on the crisis, and extorted money from you. You couldn't bear it and wanted to rise up with the Huihe, Bayegu, and Tongluo tribes to resist?"
Messenger Xue Yantuo opened his mouth so wide that he could fit a fist into it.
This, this, this is also known!
This matter is the highest secret in our tribe. Except for the tribal leader, it is impossible for outsiders to know.
The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty was thousands of miles away, but he actually knew everything. Could it be that there was help from the gods?
Thinking of this, his legs softened and he fell to his knees with a thud, his face on the ground.
"The Heavenly Khan is as wise as the sea, and he has no plans left. He is a true god and man! Nothing in the world can be hidden from the eyes of the Heavenly Khan, who sees everything——"
Li Shimin couldn't help but turn up the corners of his mouth slightly, and glanced at the ministers in the hall pretending to be reserved. I had only been criticized by them before, but it was rare to receive so many looks of shock and admiration.
"It's actually true..."
"It's incredible..."
"Your Majesty's methods are becoming more and more unpredictable..."
…
