The scene fell into silence when he blocked Li Junxian.
Regarding Jieli Khan’s reputation, everyone present heard about it.
East Turkestan is a place that worships martial arts, and the more powerful a person is, the higher his status will be.
Jieli Khan stabilized the Eastern Turks not only because of his birth, but also because of his powerful force.
"Khan wants to take action?"
Li Junxian looked at Jieli Khan calmly and said calmly.
"No, I just want to tell the general that those are people from my Eastern Turkic royal family."
"If he does anything wrong, I will definitely hold the general accountable."
Jieli Khan said solemnly.
"Eastern Turkic royal family?"
"Didn't the Eastern Turks perish?"
Li Junxian smiled slightly and said softly.
After saying this, the ministers here in the Tang Dynasty were very proud.
In the past, Qin Huaiyu violently attacked the Eastern Turkic royal family, and in the later period, Li Junxian humiliated them.
Will they, the East Turkic royal family whose country was destroyed, dare to speak so arrogantly in the future?
"So brave!"
Jieli Khan immediately became angry.
His eyes were wide open and his eyes were about to burst, and he grabbed Li Junxian with both hands.
Li Junxian snorted coldly, and also took action, blocking Jieli Khan's hands with both hands.
With a bang, the two started to fight, but they had no choice but to help each other secretly.
Seeing that the two were about to fight, an old man walked into the palace and the Supreme Emperor Li Yuan came.
"Jie Li, we haven't seen each other for a few years, and you're already fooling around with the juniors? Have you regressed?"
Li Yuan slowly approached and said softly.
"Li Yuan, you are not much better off. You have already retreated to the throne of the Supreme Emperor."
Jieli Khan snorted and let go of Li Junxian's hand.
"Meet the Supreme Emperor!"
Tang officials all saluted Li Yuan.
"What's wrong with the Emperor?"
"It's better than being imprisoned, right?"
Li Yuan chuckled.
People came to Jieli Khan.
Although his height and physique are much worse than Jieli Khan's.
But standing together like this, I don’t think Li Yuan is inferior to Jieli Khan.
I even vaguely feel that Li Yuan is better than Jieli Khan in terms of temperament.
"Humph!"
"If the weather hadn't been bad, would you have won?"
Jieli Khan snorted coldly.
He looked very dissatisfied in his words.
If the weather hadn't been bad for years, he wouldn't have been defeated.
"Hahaha..."
"Heaven helps me Datang, what chance do you have of being undefeated?"
Li Yuan laughed loudly.
He waved his hand domineeringly and walked back to Datang.
Immediately, a eunuch moved to sit at the table and placed him at the front of the ministers.
As Li Yuan sat down, Fang Yuan and others also sat down one after another, looking at Jieli Khan with half a smile.
"Huh, victory depends on the timing of the weather, and the Tang Dynasty can't win without force!"
Jieli Khan snorted coldly.
Also return to your seat and sit down.
Other Eastern Turkic royal families also sat down one after another.
After Li Junxian saluted Li Yuan, he escorted the people away.
The side hall seemed to have returned to calm, with two people sitting and staring at each other.
However, with the arrival of Qin Huaiyu, Li Junxian, and Li Yuan, Datang became more powerful.
After all, it was just a defeated country. The officials of the Tang Dynasty looked down on the other party from the bottom of their hearts, even if the other party behaved arrogantly and domineeringly.
Not long after.
Li Shimin appeared with other ministers.
This time, in addition to Li Yuan, even Jieli Khan also stood up and saluted.
"No gift."
"Father, you are here."
Li Shimin smiled and waved.
Then he walked straight to Li Yuan and saluted Li Yuan.
Li Jing and others did the same, and they saluted Li Yuan with Li Shimin.
"Forget the common etiquette and get down to business."
Li Yuan waved his hand and said calmly.
He still didn't get up and accepted everyone's salutes calmly.
"Yes."
Li Shimin should be.
Looking back at Jieli Khan and others.
Jieli Khan's face froze and he felt a little uncomfortable.
The arrogance that I had when facing everyone just now is not visible at all now.
Some of them seem to be surrendering to Li Shimin?
"Jieli, do you accept the defeat?"
Li Shimin Langshengdao.
Tang Chen behind him suddenly became short of breath.
The Eastern Turks, once the overlord of the north, were now destroyed by the Tang Dynasty, and Li Shimin personally asked whether he would accept it.
This is the pride of the Tang Dynasty and the pride of the Tang people.
"Are you convinced?"
Changsun Chong and other juniors couldn't help but drink out.
The sound echoed again and again in the hall.
"Serve."
"I would like to call Emperor Tang the Khan of Heaven!"
"Khan for all us nomads!"
Jieli Khan struggled for a moment.
Finally, he knelt down on one knee and saluted Li Shimin.
"Greetings to the Khan!"
Members of the Eastern Turkic royal family knelt down and saluted Li Shimin respectfully.
"Khan of Heaven?"
"Hahaha... I like this title, get up!"
Li Shimin murmured, then laughed loudly.
It’s best if Jieli Khan accepts it. If you don’t accept it, it will be difficult to rule the subsequent Eastern Turkic territories.
Although the Eastern Turks were destroyed by the Tang Dynasty, they were a huge nomadic nation with many tribes.
If Jieli Khan refuses to accept it, Datang will have to spend a lot of time and energy dealing with follow-up issues, which is not what Datang wants.
All the officials of the Tang Dynasty looked sideways and expressed their pride that Jieli Khan addressed the emperor as Tian Khan.
"Thank God Khan."
Jieli Khan responded respectfully and stood up.
"Father, how about a banquet?"
Li Shimin smiled broadly and looked back at Li Yuan.
He was very satisfied with Jieli Khan's surrender, and decided to discuss the prepared punishment conditions later.
"Then let's move."
Li Yuan finally stood up.
Under the leadership of Li Shimin, everyone moved their positions.
Today, Li Jing's army and others returned triumphantly and captured the Eastern Turkic royal family.
This is the most worthy of celebration. The palace has prepared a banquet to entertain Li Jing and the Eastern Turkic royal family.
As everyone moves around, the ranks of ministers are no longer as distinct as where they were sitting just now, and they can move around as they please.
Changsun Chong, Qin Huaiyu and others slowly gathered together, and finally approached Fang Yuan, following the large group together.
"The Eastern Turkic royal family is so arrogant, they don't even look like a defeated country."
Cheng Chumo complained softly.
"Indeed!"
"They should not admit defeat!"
Changsun Chong nodded heavily.
"They probably won't obey General Li, but they seem to be very surrendered to His Majesty."
Qin Huaiyu interjected.
Everyone saw what Jieli Khan did just now.
Even when the Supreme Emperor arrives, the other party is not very considerate.
But as soon as the emperor arrived, he immediately changed his appearance and knelt down on one knee.
"Fang Yuan, what do you think?"
Yuchi Baolin pushed Fang Yuan who was silent and asked.
After he spoke, they followed the team and looked at Fang Yuan.
"How else can you see it? It's just like what you see."
"But Jieli Khan should be able to see that His Majesty needs him, so he was so arrogant when he faced us before."
Fang Yuan thought for a while and said.
"For example?"
Changsun Chong and the others looked at Fang Yuan in confusion.
"The Eastern Turks are a nomadic people, composed of many tribes."
"Although the Tang Dynasty destroyed the Eastern Turks, it did not destroy all the tribes."
"When we rule the Eastern Turkic territories, we still need the help of Jieli Khan."
"Perhaps Jieli Khan saw this and dared to be so arrogant just now."
Fang Yuan explained.
This is a conclusion based on the last conversation with Li Shimin in the study.
The Tang Dynasty conquered the territory of the Eastern Turks. If you want to manage it well, it is very important to have the support of the original owner.
As the leader of a country, Jieli Khan should have such a mind even though he is a nomad, judging from what he just showed.
"It's very possible."
Changsun Chong and Qin Huaiyu looked at each other and nodded solemnly.
The two of them paid attention to Fang Yuan again, sighing that Fang Yuan was indeed better than them, and they couldn't refuse to accept it.
Not long after, everyone moved to the banquet.
The banquet this time was even grander than the last one.
When everyone arrived, some royal relatives had been waiting here for a long time.
After seeing Li Shimin and Li Yuan walking in the front, the royal family and relatives stood up and saluted them one after another.
Soon, a ceremonial eunuch came over to arrange the seats, and Li Shimin, Li Yuan and Jieli Khan walked to the front.
This time, at the request of Changsun Chong, Qin Huaiyu and others, several people sat very close to Fang Yuan, and their actions did not strictly follow their official positions.
As soon as Fang Yuan and others sat down, Princess Xiangcheng came over, along with Princess Changle.
"Meet the two princesses."
Fang Yuan, Changsun Chong and the people nearby all stood up and saluted.
This is the royal palace, and in full view of the public, people cannot act as casually as usual.
"No gift."
Princess Xiangcheng said with great demeanor.
Princess Changle is small, but she looks noble and elegant.
"Changle, you look very nice tonight. Are you here to see your cousin?"
Changsun Chong smiled at Princess Changle and said.
"Tch, I'm not here to see you, I'm here to see Uncle Fang."
Princess Changle rolled her eyes at Changsun Chong and said.
"Ah?"
"What's so good about him?"
Changsun Chong frowned and complained.
"Uncle Fang saved me."
"I'm here to bless Uncle Fang."
"Uncle Fang, I wish you and Sister Miaoyan a happy wedding."
Princess Changle saluted Fang Yuan.
"Princess Changle, why don't you call me brother Fang Yuan."
"You call me uncle, and you call me sister Miaoyan. It's all messed up."
Fang Yuan smiled bitterly.
Speechless, it’s another day of being called uncle.
Fang Yuan feels that he is quite young and has not yet become an uncle.
"Fang Yuan, don't try to take advantage of Chang Le."
Before Princess Changle could speak, Changsun Chong said with a vigilant tone.
Everyone who knows knows that the relationship between Changsun Chong and Princess Changle is not as simple as cousins.
The emperor and Changsun Wuji seem to be interested in bringing the two of them together, and Princess Changle is likely to marry Changsun Chong in the future.
This is one of the reasons why Changsun Chong has been single even though he is old enough to get married.
"Call me uncle to take advantage, right?"
Fang Yuan said speechlessly.
"I don't care, I can't call you brother!"
"Chang Le, why don't you just call Fang Yuan from now on."
Changsun Chong thought about it and felt that it was indeed the case.
But it is absolutely impossible to call me brother, I don’t like it very much.
After thinking about it, it seems that it would be better to call her by her name. Anyway, Princess Changle’s identity lies there.
"Isn't it good?"
Princess Changle tilted her head and rolled her eyes.
She seems to have her own ideas, but her ideas seem immature.
"Okay, let's talk about the title later."
"Fang Yuan, congratulations, remember to send me an invitation!"
Princess Xiangcheng interrupted everyone's discussion, looked at Fang Yuan and congratulated.
"Thank you, I will send invitations to all of you."
Fang Yuan responded sincerely.
Everyone started to congratulate Fang Yuan.
The entire city of Chang'an knew about their wedding.
But the invitations haven't been sent out yet, and many people are curious about who will be invited.
Not long ago, the second most beautiful woman in Chang'an City got married, and most of Chang'an City was shocked.
Now the most beautiful woman is getting married. Although she is not a relative of the emperor, she is also the biological daughter of Prime Minister Du.
The size of the wedding shouldn’t be too shabby, right?
Princess Xiangcheng also wants to say something else.
But at this moment, the banquet was announced to begin.
Everyone had no choice but to return to their seats.
When she returned, Princess Xiangcheng looked at Fang Yuan with a somewhat sad expression.
Soon, the banquet was served, music and dancing were played, and it seemed not much different from the last banquet.
"That's what palace banquets are all about."
"People who haven't seen it think it's high-end, but people who have seen it think it's that way. If you participate a few times, it won't be anything new anymore."
Changsun Chong and Qin Huaiyu seemed to understand what Fang Yuan was thinking and chatted quietly on the side.
For those who often attend palace banquets, they already have no idea about palace banquets.
Therefore, when they could sit anywhere, they all asked to sit together, and sat down with Fang Yuan by the way, just to relieve their boredom and chat.
The banquet is relatively noisy. If it is not very loud, it will not affect other people and no one will say anything. This is already an unspoken rule.
When the banquet was progressing and the palace maids were dancing, Li Yuan stood up drunk.
As the Supreme Emperor, after he stood up, everyone looked at him in unison.
Even the emperor Li Shimin is no exception.
"I'm happy today, but I've seen enough of the palace dancing."
"Jieli, I heard that your Eastern Turks have a dance that can both entertain you and improve your morale."
"Everyone is happy now, how about you come and dance to cheer up the fun?"
Li Yuan said loudly.
After the words fell, the scene was silent.
After a while, everyone was in an uproar.
"Okay!"
"Support!"
Pei Ji was the first to speak and shouted in support.
“I think it’s feasible!”
Many people spoke out one after another.
Soon, everyone came to their senses and shouted support, and the atmosphere instantly became high.
"Don't even think about it!"
Jieli Khan's expression changed instantly.
His face turned red with anger, and his beard trembled.
The other Eastern Turkic royal families were also very angry, but they were more afraid.
Facing the booing from the ministers of the Tang Dynasty, they were still scared in the palace of the Tang Dynasty.
"What?"
"My old face doesn't even have this bit of face anymore?"
Li Yuan's face darkened and he sneered.
The smiles of the ministers slowly faded, and many of their eyes were fixed on Jieli Khan.
Jieli Khan looked even more ugly and wanted to refuse, but faced with the hostility of so many Tang officials, he did not dare.
"Jie Li, I thought you should help the fun."
Li Shimin suddenly said loudly.
His voice broke the heavy atmosphere.
The ministers were also much less hostile to Jieli Khan.
Some of the more sensitive ministers realized that their statement just now was not good and lowered their heads.
"Tian Khan, do you really want to do this?"
Jieli Khan held back his anger and said in a deep voice.
"My father wants to see it, my ministers want to see it, and I want to see it too."
Li Shimin chuckled.
The ministers also smiled and looked at Jieli Khan.
Jieli Khan gritted his teeth, pondered for a moment, and finally stood up and walked out of the banquet.
