Li Tai smiled and said: "He is a hero of the Tang Dynasty. How can my father be willing to let him go on an expedition? If you want to see what he is capable of, I can give you a feast for your eyes."
After saying that, he used a move and shouted: "This is a series of moves immediately, how about it? Do you think it is true?"
The emperor immediately showed a humble look and said: "Yes, it was because of this mace that I became his defeated general. King Wei was so young, but this mace made him so proficient and talented that it was amazing.
."
Li Tai said disdainfully: "Excuse me. Your Majesty, tomorrow our army will send someone to declare a challenge. Then we will be one-on-one and let me have a taste of what I can do."
After saying that, he turned around and left.
Cheng Wenjun came out from among the officials and shouted: "King Wei, please stay."
Li Tai stopped and asked, "What? Are you taking me as a hostage? It's okay to stay. I just want to enjoy the beautiful scenery here and replenish my body with beef and mutton."
Cheng Wenjun said with a smile: "King Wei has misunderstood. My lord has no intention of doing anything to you. On the contrary, we have already prepared the document of surrender."
When Li Tai heard this, he thought this was a great thing. How could it be possible? The Luojia Kingdom was recovered without even a single soldier?
Then he turned around and asked doubtfully, "Is this true?"
The emperor of Naluojia said: "How can the emperor be joking? The king of Wei does not know that General Qin Qiong is kind to me. For the sake of General Qin, I will not embarrass you. Now that the Tang Dynasty is strong, all small countries have
I am not a fool, so how can I insist on going my own way? Since you are here, I don't have to go through so much trouble. Someone comes and presents our annual tribute gift list to the King of Wei."
The eunuch who delivered the order immediately took out a gift book and handed it over. Li Tai took it and took a look at it. The tributes were very rich, and the gift book was clearly stamped with the emperor's seal. He beamed with joy.
"Those who know the current affairs are heroes. Your Majesty understands the righteousness so well. When I return to the court, I will speak kind words to my father and reduce your annual tribute by more than half."
"Okay, I have already set up a banquet to welcome King Wei."
Li Tai thought, if things are done well, what kind of food will they eat? If something unexpected happens and there is no return, it will be troublesome. Besides, Feng Li and the others don't know how to worry about him.
So he said: "There is no need to take the wind. I have to go back and tell the soldiers this great news."
"Okay, in that case, King Wei will do as he pleases, and Cheng Aiqing will send you off."
Li Tai quickly refused: "No need. I, Li Tai, came back the same way I came here. Your Majesty, you don't have to be polite."
After leaving Luojia Kingdom's palace, Li Tai touched his wet hair.
He usually doesn't sweat much, but this time it's different. He just learned a trick from Qin Qiong. He doesn't know if it's the authentic Qin family's trick, it's just pretending. After all, this is the first time he has experienced something like this.
Could he not be nervous about the scene?
Wang Xiaoyang was so excited that tears filled his eyes when he saw him.
Li Tai said: "It's worthless." After saying this, he also cried.
He was carrying his life in his hands, and it was a surprise that he came back safely.
"The Emperor of Luojia Kingdom is a coward. I thought we would be separated from each other this time. Master, what are you holding in your hand?"
Li Tai then remembered Luo Jia's surrender and said with a smile: "Send the letter."
"Bragging, you surrendered without fighting a single battle?"
Li Tai said: "Don't talk nonsense. It's not that surrendering a letter is the same as surrendering a letter. Look, there is a group of people coming over there. They seem to be our people."
Wang Xiaoyang took one look and shouted: "Isn't that the Emperor? Why is he here?"
Li Tai didn't believe his eyes, so he rubbed his eyes and looked, who was it if it wasn't Li Shimin?
Why is he here? Is he worried about himself?
Li Tai hurriedly ran a few steps to meet him. Li Shimin turned over and dismounted, hugged him and cried: "I scared my father to death, are you okay?"
In full view of everyone, Li Shimin behaved so intimately that he was at a loss.
He pushed him away and asked: "Isn't today the prince's happy day? Why are you here?"
Li Shimin said: "I'm afraid I'll never see you again? Tai'er, let father take a look, are you okay?"
It turned out that he was worried about him.
"What can I do? Aren't I good? Father, I was about to write a book to tell you the good news, but I didn't expect you to be here."
Yuchi Jingde said with a smile: "His Royal Highness, King of Wei, is fine. Please hurry up and get us some food and drink. We have killed several horses while traveling all night."
"Why did you come here at starry night?"
Li Shimin took out the letter written by Feng Li and said: "Didn't you see this? Son, you are not afraid of tigers when you are a newborn calf. If they become murderous, will you and I still have a chance to meet? By the way, your two deputies
How handsome is he?"
It turned out that Feng Li and Xie Shufang had deceived him.
Li Tai felt unhappy, and then thought that they were doing it for his own good, so he hurriedly presented the tribute list from Luojia Kingdom and said: "Luojia Kingdom does not want to fight, so it will become a vassal directly."
Li Shimin's voice rose several times and asked: "Really? No way? Are the rumors false?"
"It's written in black and white, how can it be false? They said they would send the tribute to Chang'an soon."
"It's strange how their ideas change so quickly? It seems that one moment they are at the end of their rope, and the next moment they surrender. How is this emperor? Is he very old?"
"Father, he is not much older than you. This man is really not that good. I used General Qin's trick in front of him and frightened him. The emperor of Luojia Kingdom said that he was the defeated general of General Qin Qiong.
, it was for his sake that I decided to surrender."
"This is great. You have made great achievements this time. You will be rewarded heavily when you return."
Li Tai thought, there is no need for a reward, it would be best if you made me the crown prince.
"I don't want rewards. It is my duty as a prince to contribute to the country. Let's go and rest in the camp. I will give you a massage later."
Yuchi Gong shouted: "What about me? I'm so tired that I'm about to fall down."
"Master, as long as you teach me your Yuchi family's whipping technique, I will be willing to give you a massage every day."
"Okay, it's a deal. Hurry up, we're all starving."
This Yuchi Gong was so ignorant in front of Li Shimin that Li Shimin didn't even say "hungry", but he kept saying the word "hungry".
"Okay, let the chief of staff arrange a meal for you right away."
As he spoke, Li Tai took Li Shimin's hand and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, please mount your horse."
Li Shimin said happily: "It's better to be Tai'er. Being versatile is a talent."
When the group arrived at the camp, Feng Li and Uncle Xie were as anxious as ants on a hot pot. Seeing that the emperor had arrived in person, they were even more shocked and didn't know why.
Li Tai said to them: "Go down quickly and prepare food and wine for the emperor to welcome the emperor."
Wang Xiaoyang agreed and immediately got into the kitchen.
