Chapter 1717: Meeting between Wang Junlin and Li Shimin
Changsun Wuji was startled for a moment, with a puzzled look on his face.
However, Wang Junlin did not explain, and could not explain, because excluding his identity as a time traveler, it was indeed difficult to understand that he wanted to meet Li Shimin alone under such circumstances.
Wang Junlin said again: "Wuji, tell Li Shimin that at noon tomorrow, a tent will be erected five hundred steps outside Chang'an City. I will take only one person with me and wait for him there. If he dares to come out to meet me,
On the one hand, I can fulfill his wish. You tell him that I only give him one chance for Xuan Ba's sake, but after tomorrow, there will be no such chance again."
Changsun Wuji took a deep breath, and then he remembered the somewhat foolish man he had not thought of for a while.
At that time, he met the four brothers Li Shimin, Li Jiancheng, Li Yuanji and Li Xuanba. He thought that he could see through the four brothers at a glance and decided that Li Shimin was the destined emperor.
The villain.
As for Li Xuanba, he has never caught his eye, because he is a mentally retarded fool with extraordinary physical talents but mental problems.
But he didn't expect that Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji did not make mistakes, and he also made mistakes with Li Shimin and Li Xuanba.
And the reason why he misjudged these two people was related to Wang Junlin.
And he didn't expect that Li Xuanba was so important in Wang Junlin's eyes that he could spare Li Shimin's life just for Li Xuanba's sake.
Changsun Wuji believed that he was unparalleled in resourcefulness. Li Shimin, Wang Junlin, and Li Jing were the only three people in the world who could compare with him. Du Ruhui, Fang Xuanling, and others were all inferior to him, but he didn't know that he was wrong again.
But you can't blame him, because Wang Junlin is an anomaly, a person who should not appear in this world.
In fact, if it weren't for Wang Junlin's anomaly, he would actually have guessed very accurately that Li Shimin was indeed the destined emperor, and Li Xuanba was indeed a mentally retarded child with extraordinary physical gifts.

………
Changsun Wuji left Da'an Kingdom's camp alone and rode his horse a long way away. He turned back and took a look. He still had many doubts in his heart.
But now that he was alone, the disappointment on his face was completely revealed.
When he saw Wang Junlin just now, he tactfully expressed his intention to be loyal to him, but Wang Junlin never answered the question, let alone showed the slightest hint of joy or respect for his talents.
This was a huge blow to Sun Wuji, who thought he had the talents of a prime minister.
Sighing, Changsun Wuji, who was filled with disappointment, rode his horse slowly to the foot of Chang'an City. A very large bamboo basket fell from the top of the city. Changsun Wuji climbed up and allowed the soldiers on top of the city to slowly pull him away.
Go up.
He also left the city like this when he left the city before, but he sat cross-legged on the bamboo basket and paid great attention to his image as prime minister. But now he sat on the bamboo basket again, but he no longer cared about it.
For a proud person, an extremely proud person, the most uncomfortable thing for him is to be looked down upon by others, and he is the first person in the world to look down upon him.
Li Shimin did not wait in the palace inside the city, but waited in the attic at the top of the city. At this time, he saw Chang Sun Wuji looking a little lost, but he was also surprised.
For many years, he had never seen Changsun Wuji like this.
"Is it because Wang Junlin is unwilling to accept Changsun Wuji?" Li Shimin thought to himself, frowning tightly. Now he was only thinking about how to get Wang Junlin to let him live, and Changsun Wuji was the one who gave him to Wang Junlin.
One of Jun Lin's gifts, but if Wang Junlin didn't like this gift, what else could he exchange with Wang Junlin.
In the attic at the top of the city, Changsun Wuji suppressed the disappointment on his face and truthfully relayed Wang Junlin's meaning to Li Shimin.
"What?" A military general next to him was startled and said angrily: "Your Majesty, Wang Junlin is really uneasy and kind-hearted. He wants to trap and kill your Majesty. Your Majesty must not go out of the city alone to see him."
Li Shimin thought for a moment, then shook his head and said: "Wang Junlin mentioned my brother Xuanba in his words, and Wang Junlin has established an image of being a man of integrity to the world for many years. In the current situation, there is no need for him to deceive again."
thing."
"Your Majesty, how can we be sure of this? This is no small matter. Once you make a mistake in judgment, Your Majesty will fall into the hands of Wang Junlin." A military general said anxiously.
"How much worse can the current situation get?" Li Shimin sighed. Seeing the anxiety and worry of all the generals, he was also a little relieved. In this case, including Changsun Wuji, his most trusted right-hand man
All the civil servants including him are already thinking about their next family and how to survive, but the generals he has trained over the years are still loyal to him, well! Except maybe Chai Shao... As for the national masters, the relationship is originally one of mutual use.
.
Chai Shao remained silent from beginning to end. At this moment, he felt Li Shimin's seemingly casual glance. His heart trembled, and he bowed and said: "Your Majesty, Wang Junlin will never do such a villainous thing, but
Your Majesty might as well send someone to set up the meeting tent outside the city to prevent Wang Junlin from having anyone tamper with the tent."
Li Shimin thought for a moment, nodded slightly, and said: "The general's words make sense. The tent where I will meet Wang Junlin will be set up by the general."
Chai Shao bowed and accepted the order and left.
Li Shimin dismissed everyone again, leaving only Li Changfeng, the chief officer of the Dark Eagle Guard, and asked in a low voice: "Have you found the Imperial Master?"
Li Changfeng hurriedly whispered: "Your Majesty, all the people in the city have been investigated, and none of them have found the Imperial Advisor. I thought that the Imperial Advisor had dressed up as a soldier and was hiding in a large building in the city.
The camp may be on top of a city somewhere.”
"Alas! I was still thinking about whether the Imperial Master could help me escape from death, but I didn't want the Imperial Master to abandon me." When Li Shimin said this, his voice was deliberately louder.
Because he knew that Puppet No. 1 had great supernatural powers, Li Shimin never told anyone that he could really get a way out of Wang Junlin with two gifts, Changsun Wuji was one, and the Imperial Master was the more important one.
After all, this kind of thing has been done once, and that time it gave him three years of buffer time in the Tang Dynasty, otherwise he might have been destroyed by Wang Junlin three years ago.
But No. 1 was besieged and killed once by Li Shimin's army, so how could he be so foolish as to be fooled a second time without taking precautions.
Therefore, since the defeat in the field battle outside the city yesterday, Puppet No. 1 has not appeared again.
But thinking about the current situation, it is impossible for the Imperial Preceptor to escape, but I don't know where the Imperial Preceptor is hiding.
………
………
The gate of Chang'an City opened, and a group of Tang troops walked out of the city, pulling five large trucks. They very carefully and accurately measured the distance of 500 steps outside Chang'an City, found a piece of flat land, and built a lonely yellow imperial tent.
After the spacious tent was set up, the soldiers responsible for setting up the tent left one by one with the empty carts.
In the distance, Shen Guoer personally stared at this side with a telescope, but she was a little worried, and asked the subordinates with the best eyes around her: "Have you seen it clearly? Have the Tang people laid an ambush in the tent? "
Several subordinates shook their heads and said: "Sir, there were a total of sixty Tang soldiers setting up the tent. After the tent was built, the sixty Tang soldiers had gone back and there was no one in the tent."
Shen Guo'er nodded, thinking that Nie Xiaoyu would follow His Majesty. Even if the Tang State's National Preceptor, whom Your Majesty called No. 1, showed up, Your Majesty should be fine.
…………
…………
The army camp of the Da'an Kingdom opened wide, and two cavalrymen came out leisurely. The first man, with a wide white dragon robe and a leisurely attitude, was Wang Junlin. Behind him, Nie Xiaoyu followed silently, and the two of them went straight to the place outside Chang'an City. A big yellow tent.
At the same time, the south gate of Chang'an City also opened, and two riders walked out, looking at Wang Junlin and his party from a distance, and slowly walked towards the tent.
Contrary to Wang Junlin's expectation, the person behind Li Shimin was also a woman, and she looked to be a young woman in her twenties or seventeen years old. She was good-looking, and most importantly, she looked elegant. She clearly came from a wealthy family. Home.
"This woman looks a bit like Li Shimin. Could she be Li Shimin's sister or Li Yuan's daughter?"
Wang Junlin thought to himself, but then his expression suddenly dawned.
"Yes! Although I don't know which one of Li Yuan's daughters she is, I think this girl had a good relationship with Li Xuanba back then, and she even took good care of Xuanba back then."
"Li Shimin wanted to play the emotional card. He tried every means possible just so that I could let him live."
"But he didn't know. I never thought about killing him."
With slightly emotional expressions on their faces, Wang Junlin and Nie Xiaoyu had already arrived at the big yellow tent, and they opened the tent and entered without hesitation.
Naturally, the tent cannot be empty. There are plenty of tables, fruits, tea, and fine wines, and there are even luxurious woolen blankets on the ground. The Tang army from before pushed three carts out of the city to set up tents. Obviously, they were not just pulling tents. .
Not long after, Li Shimin and his sister opened the curtain and entered. Wang Junlin and Nie Xiaoyu were already sitting cross-legged behind the carpeted table, tasting the fruits on the table.
Seeing the brother and sister Li Shimin come in, Wang Junlin raised his head and glanced at the two of them, and said with a smile: "Shimin, it's not been more than ten years since I arrived. You're all right."
Li Shimin was secretly relieved when he saw Wang Junlin's expression and demeanor.
"I've met brother Jun Lin." Li Shimin suppressed the fluctuation in his heart, kept his face calm, and gave Wang Junlin a slight fist hug, but the woman behind him knelt down to salute Wang Junlin and Nie Xiaoyu, saying: "I am Li Xiuning Pay homage to His Majesty."
Wang Junlin waved his hand to signal her to stand up, and said with a smile: "It turns out she is Princess Xiuning, but she is the wife of General Chai."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Li Xiuning stood up, stood obediently behind Li Shimin, and said, "My husband is Chai Shao."
While talking, Li Xiuning picked up the teapot behind the table and started making tea for Wang Junlin and Li Shimin.
Li Shimin was already sitting opposite Wang Junlin, but in the process he looked at Nie Xiaoyu carefully, secretly judging the relationship between the two from the position between Nie Xiaoyu and Wang Junlin, and thus judging that he was Nie Xiaoyu's apprentice. Li Xuanba's status in Wang Junlin's heart.
This was not the first time he met Nie Xiaoyu. Back then, Nie Xiaoyu followed Wang Junlin and went to see Li Yuan. At that time, he abducted Li Xuanba and cured Li Xuanba's illness, which made Li Xuanba, who had died of illness early, become pregnant.
Earth-shaking changes.
Seeing that Wang Junlin remained silent and just looked at Li Xiuning playfully, knowing that Wang Junlin had seen through his plans, Li Shimin sighed secretly in his heart, thinking that he was here to ask for help after all, even if he was a prisoner of the other side.
It's not an exaggeration, I can't hold it any longer.
Therefore, he took the initiative and sighed quietly, saying: "Brother Jun Lin should know that among our brothers, Xuanba had the best relationship with me back then, and Xiuning took great care of Xuanba's daily life back then."
Wang Junlin smiled and said: "Actually, you don't need to say this, and there is no need for Princess Xiuning to go out of the city to see me today. I have promised Xuanba a long time ago that I will let you live."
Listening to Wang Junlin say this in such an understatement,
In short, Li Shimin was so happy that he almost suspected that he was dreaming.
At this moment, Li Shimin could no longer maintain his imperial airs. He stood up and bowed deeply to Wang Junlin, saying: "Thank you for your kindness in sparing your life. I swear to God that I will never step into Da'an Kingdom again in my lifetime."
Li Xiuning also quickly followed her brother and paid another courtesy to Wang Junlin.
Seeing Li Shimin salute him, Wang Junlin still felt a little strangely happy in his heart. He waved his hand and said with a smile, "You two don't need to thank me. This is just what I promised Xuan Ba."
Naturally, Li Shimin would not be so naive, so after he stood up, he asked again: "If your Majesty has any request, please tell me."
It's easy to talk to the most intelligent people in the world. Wang Junlin said: "Two things."
Li Shimin looked solemn, but said nothing, waiting for Wang Junlin to continue.
"Pack up your national master of the Tang Dynasty and send it to me again." When Wang Junlin said this, a shocking killing intent flashed in his eyes, which made Li Shimin, brother and sister, couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts.
But Li Shimin smiled bitterly and said: "Your Majesty, the people dare not hide it. That person has disappeared since the end of the battle outside the city yesterday. The news I got is that he may be hidden among the defenders in the city, but I won't know for a while.
I'm afraid I can't find it, after all, there are more than 700,000 people in Chang'an City including the common people."
When he said these words, Li Shimin felt a little uneasy.
Wang Junlin frowned, but thinking about No. 1's urine and ability, this was something that was expected. What's more, Li Shimin had already sent him away once with a large army, how could he be unprepared this second time.
Therefore, Wang Junlin thought for a moment and then said: "The second thing is, you can continue to lead the 100,000 troops under your command to leave Chang'an City, but you must go to the predetermined route and place."
Li Shimin was startled for a moment, and felt ecstatic again. He thought that Wang Junlin would only let him leave alone, and letting him take at most a few hundred close soldiers was the limit. He didn't want to let him leave directly with the 100,000 troops in the city.
.
As his thoughts were spinning, Li Shimin's breathing was slightly rapid, and the light in his eyes flashed away, and he said: "Your Majesty wants me to go to the Western Regions and the Western Turks to conquer the Kingdom of Zhaowu. Your Majesty, don't worry, no matter how big I conquer in the Western Regions."
The territory of the country will be regarded as the suzerain state of Da'an from generation to generation."
Wang Junlin shook his head and said: "I have my own arrangements in the Western Region, and the people of the world have other places to conquer the country."
Li Shimin was stunned again, thought for a moment, and said: "Could it be that your Majesty wants me to go to Tianzhu area?"
Wang Junlin still shook his head and said: "No, I want you to go overseas."
"Overseas?" Li Shimin was a little disappointed. He thought Wang Junlin wanted him to become a pirate. Although there were many islands in the sea, how could they compare with the huge land.
"Your Majesty, don't worry. I will definitely open up territory for your Majesty on the sea and make all the islands on the sea belong to the Da'an Kingdom." Although he was a little disappointed in his heart, Li Shimin did not dare to show it on his face.
Of course Wang Junlin would not believe what Li Shimin said that no matter what country he conquered, it belonged to the Da'an Kingdom. He even knew that as long as something happened to the Da'an Kingdom, Li Shimin would definitely make a comeback if he had the chance.
"It's not the overseas islands, but there is a continent on the other side of the sea that is no smaller than my country of Da'an, the lands in the Western Regions, and even the countries in the south such as Tianzhu combined." Wang Junlin finally said where he wanted to exile Li Shimin.
.
Li Shimin was taken aback this time, but after all, he was Li Shimin. He quickly regained his composure and said, "Don't worry, your majesty. The people of the world will not let you down. On the other side of the sea, we will conquer the country for your majesty, no matter what country we establish."
, they will all be His Majesty’s vassals.”
But Wang Junlin smiled and said: "You can't prove it with your words, why not sign it and stamp it with a seal."
As Wang Junlin spoke, he took the contract that had been prepared long ago from Nie Xiaoyu.
Li Shimin was surprised again, and he was even more puzzled. He took the contract and looked at it, and saw that it was very detailed. The general meaning was that as long as he and his descendants established the territory on the other side of the sea, they would be able to establish
All countries must respect China as the country of the suzerain from generation to generation.
Of course Li Shimin did not dare to refuse, so he signed and stamped his signature obediently, and stamped his own seal.
Of course Wang Junlin knew that this contract had limited effect, but with this contract, future generations would have a lot to do in South America and North America.
As for the Western Turks and Zhaowu Kingdom in the Western Regions, the Tubo Kingdom on the plateau, the Nanyue Kingdom in the south, and the Japanese Kingdom on the sea, his group of tiger generals with a strong desire for war will conquer them one by one.
…………
…………
This meeting between the two emperors started at noon and lasted only an hour before ending. However, during this period, the soldiers on both sides who were waiting in formation not far away became restless because they could not see anything even with telescopes.
If the Tang army in Chang'an City was not suppressed by Chai Shao and Li Jing outside the city, some of the generals on both sides would have lost their temper and acted differently.
About an hour later, the tent door finally opened, and Wang Junlin and Li Shimin walked out one after another with calm expressions, but no unnecessary information could be seen on their faces.
Both sides mounted their horses and galloped away. The big tent still existed alone outside Chang'an City. No one knew that the meeting between two people there had already determined the life and death of the 100,000 defenders in the city, as well as the fate of the 100,000 defenders in the city.
The two continents on the other side of the sea and the fate of some people on them.
