This time, Li Shimin was extremely well prepared for the Conference of All Nations.
Not only do we arrange a series of personnel early to greet envoys from various countries, but also help them prepare their rooms.
He even personally prepared various and different gifts for them.
When Li Chengqian walked into the Tai Chi Hall, he was also shocked by the sight in front of him.
At this moment, the gifts have been divided according to the names of the countries.
Gaochang is from Gaochang, Silla is from Silla, Baekje is from Baekje, and even Japan has it.
Li Chengqian walked up to the gift that Li Shimin wanted to give to Gao Changguo.
He randomly grabbed a small wooden box, opened it, and was stunned.
There was nothing inside the wooden box but a square gold seal made of pure gold.
"Good guy, my father is very generous this time."
Li Chengqian turned the gold seal over and over to look at it, and then said: "Even the gold seal was rewarded."
"Now envoys from various countries are coming to our Tang Dynasty."
"Your Majesty certainly wants to demonstrate the national and financial strength of the Tang Dynasty."
Eunuch Zhou said with a smile: "And this gold seal is not a rare thing, but it is precious because it was specially prepared by your Majesty for the Lord of Gaochang."
"yes."
"With this golden seal, Gaochang is a regime recognized by the Tang Dynasty."
"Even if others are concerned about them, they still have to look at the face of our Tang Dynasty."
Li Chengqian raised his eyebrows, and then put the gold seal back into the box.
Just by looking at this gold seal, Li Chengqian could basically guess what Li Shimin gave to other envoys.
It must be something that declares sovereignty.
To put it bluntly, just one sentence.
The gift-giving was done openly, and Li Shimin's declaration of sovereignty to everyone was genuine.
And just when Li Chengqian was about to ask Eunuch Zhou to move everything out, he suddenly noticed something was wrong.
He narrowed his eyes He opened his eyes and looked at one of the attendants brought in by Eunuch Zhou.
I saw that man, with a stooped figure, not only his face was frighteningly white, but his hair and beard were also white.
Seeing this, Li Chengqian tilted his head, waved his hand to Eunuch Zhou and said, "You go out first."
"ah?"
Hearing this, Eunuch Zhou was filled with confusion.
He was also a little confused about what Li Chengqian meant.
Didn’t you let yourself come in to help?
What does it mean to let yourself go out now?
But Li Chengqian didn't give him a chance to ask more questions.
After getting no answer from him, he said again: "Forget it, you guys move your things..."
After saying that, he pointed at the hunched guy and said, "Come here with me."
The man didn't hesitate, and without Eunuch Zhou's permission, he followed Li Chengqian and headed towards the harem.
Seeing this scene, Eunuch Zhou was also stunned.
Then, a stern look suddenly flashed in his eyes.
Obviously, he also realized something was wrong.
Almost subconsciously, he wanted to take steps to follow.
But just when he was about to take action, Li Chengqian suddenly looked back at him, his eyes full of different meanings.
Seeing this, Eunuch Zhou also stopped and asked Li Chengqian with his eyes: "Are you sure?"
Li Chengqian nodded and led the man forward without saying anything.
Wait until there is no one around.
Li Chengqian said without looking back: "How brave are you? How dare you come to the palace at this time?"
After hearing this, the man behind him also smiled, and then said: "Your Highness is so brave.
Not small."
"You have obviously guessed my identity, but you still dare to be alone with me."
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Li Chengqian looked up and laughed.
He said: "I dare to be alone with you because I am confident. At the same time, I also know that you are not capable of killing me."
"Your Highness, are you so sure?"
The man raised his eyebrows and looked at Li Chengqian.
"certainly."
Li Chengqian raised his head slightly and said without looking back: "Everyone knows that although Master Qi is well-versed in world affairs, he is not a person with superb martial arts skills."
Hearing this, the man behind him also shook his head and smiled. .??.
He said: "I didn't expect that His Highness would be so well-informed..."
What he said clearly confirmed Li Chengqian's conjecture.
This person is no one else, but the young master Qi who is known as the best in the world.
At this moment, he also looked at Li Chengqian and said: "But Your Highness, have you never thought about the reason why I dare to come here alone, do you have any other preparations?"
"Of course I've thought about it."
"But no matter how prepared you are, I still have the confidence to walk out alive."
Li Chengqian stopped, looked back at Young Master Qi and said, "At the same time, I also know that you won't do that."
"Is Your Highness so confident?"
The young masters all tilted their heads and looked at Li Chengqian with interest.
"certainly."
"After all, with your intelligence, if you wanted to kill me, you would never do it yourself."
Li Chengqian raised the corner of his mouth and said: "And the way you killed me was probably the same as before. You secretly found a group of people to do it secretly."
Hearing this, Young Master Qi laughed out loud again.
"Your Highness's reputation for intelligence is well-deserved."
Speaking of this, Young Master Qi suddenly After a pause, he said: "Then you might as well guess again, Your Highness, what am I here to do?"
"What else can be done?"
"It's nothing more than two words: peace talks."
Li Chengqian looked at the young master in front of him and said, "right?"
Hearing this, the young masters pursed their lips and then asked: "Your Highness, are you willing?"
"If I tell my conscience, I definitely don't want to."
"You made me lie in bed for almost a month."
"How could I let you go so easily?"
"If I let you go, I'm afraid everyone in the world will laugh at me, Li Chengqian, for my lack of talent."
"But..."
Li Chengqian took a deep breath and said, "You also know the current situation."
"I not only have to deal with matters in the Northern Desert, but I also have to be wary of Zhao Youlin in the Western Regions."
"At the same time, I still have to deal with things on the peninsula."
"To put it bluntly, I really don't have the time to seek revenge against you."
"I think it's because of this that you chose to come here to negotiate peace with me, right?"
Hearing this, the young masters all touched the backs of their hands, with ambiguous expressions on their faces.
After a moment of silence, Young Master Qi just spoke: "Your Highness is right, but it is also wrong."
"I came to His Highness for peace talks not because I saw that His Highness was busy and had no time to deal with me."
"I believe His Highness also knows my abilities and even more clearly my connections."
"If I want to continue to quarrel with His Highness, unless His Highness uses the army to eradicate all the Jianghu forces."
"Otherwise, I will have ten thousand ways to continue fighting with His Highness."
"It's just that the current situation doesn't allow me to do that..."
Young Master Qi raised his head and looked at Li Chengqian, raised the corners of his mouth and showed his white teeth: "And what is my purpose? Your Highness should be able to guess it, right?"
