While Zhang Xuanqing was burning horse corpses on the bridge and roasting horse meat, Xiao Yu was trying to persuade Li Shimin in the cave gate of Chang'an City.

"Your Majesty, you are the king of a country. You must not easily take risks!"

Another civil servant in his fifties next to him also said, "Your Majesty, you might as well think about it again. The old minister is really worried about letting Your Majesty not bring his troops there."

This person's name is Gao Shilian, and he was the uncle of Li Shimin's empress Changsun Wugui.

Li Shimin sat upright and waved his hand hard and said, "Don't worry, two beloved, I got up from the military formation at the age of sixteen. I have never encountered any kind of danger. Besides, I have ordered Maogong, Junji, Hongshen, Sichang, General Xue to command troops, and will go to support me later. There are also Shubao, Zhijie, Zhixuan and others to follow me, Jie Li, and once they become the leader of the foreign barbarians, I wish he would not dare to do anything to me in a short time!"

However, Li Shimin planned to not bring one army or another, but only Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin, Duan Zhixuan and others to the Wei River to confront Jie Li.

General Xue is Xue Wanche. Although there were misunderstandings before, Li Shimin still recruited him back as in history and entrusted him with important tasks. The other Maogong, Junji, Hongshen, and Sichang are Xu Maogong, who has now renamed Li Ji, as well as Hou Junji, Zhang Gongjin, and his brother-in-law Chai Shao and other generals.

It is not as rumored by the world. In the Wei River Alliance, Li Shimin only brought six cavalry to scare the Turks away. The empty city plan is not so easy to deal with, and no one will fall into the trap. In fact, the Tang Dynasty is now strong and does not have the power to fight, but fighting is not something that can be fought just by fighting. Not only is it wasteful people and money, it is easy to shake the foundation of the country. Li Shimin has just ascended the throne, so he dare not start a war easily, so he is determined to deduct the power of Zheng Wushu, go out, give the other party a warning, and then set out a large army so that the other party dare not act without action.

Gao Shilian and Xiao Yu continued to persuade, and this one said, "A gentleman should not stand under a dangerous wall." The other said, "It is better to wait until the army comes and go out together to ensure that everything is safe."

Fang Xuanling, who was standing beside him, said: "You two, don't worry. Your Majesty's move was also carefully planned. The reason why the Turks dared to come to the country and reach the outskirts of the capital was that our country was in trouble. Your Majesty had newly ascended the throne, and they said that Your Majesty could not resist. If Your Majesty showed him weakness and refused to defend, the Turks would inevitably indulge the large-scale looting of troops, making it difficult for us to curb. Now Your Majesty's light cavalry is alone, so that he will show his despise them and then let Duke Li Wei, General Hou, General Xue, General Duan and others The people led their troops out of the city to show them the lineup of our Tang army, and told them to let them know that our army would definitely go to war. His Majesty's movement was beyond the expectations of the Turks, and they wanted to make them lose their opinions. The Turks had already entered our territory and must be cautious. Therefore, if our army fought with them, they could win and communicate with them, and they could consolidate. Subduing the Turks and allowing our Tang people to recuperate, it depends on today's action. Don't persuade them again!"

"Haha, okay! Those who gave birth to me, those who knew me, Xuanling!" Li Shimin laughed loudly. What Fang Xuanling said was exactly the same as what he thought. Not only that, he also asked Changsun Wuji and Li Jing to ambush in Youzhou. If the two sides really fought, although the Turkic soldiers were numerous, the lineup was not neat. As long as the Turkic soldiers had a slight idea of ​​escaping, there were ambushing troops in front of them, and large troops followed and chased them behind them, and it was easy to destroy them. In comparison, Xiao Yu, who had already aroused his disgust before, made him feel a little disapproving.

Gao Shilian and Xiao Yu wanted to report a copy of Fang Xuanling, and denounce him to ignore the king's body and let the king take risks, but he didn't dare to say anything again when he saw this. He looked at each other and suddenly asked Li Shimin to order: "I am willing to follow Your Majesty!" At this time, in the door, in addition to Gao Shilian, Xiao Yu, Fang Xuanling, Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin, Duan Zhixuan, and Duan Zhixuan, seeing this, he also said in unison: "I am willing to follow Your Majesty!"

Cheng Yaojin's man had been impatient for a long time. He glared at his eyes and gestured at the civil officials with big hands: "You guys are so naughty. What's the use of your body? I'm afraid they will be beaten to death by the other party in just a few strokes. Humph! Don't worry, if you two are with me and the second brother Qin to protect His Majesty, the Turkic people will be honest. If you dare to make any trouble, I and the second brother will definitely be able to protect His Majesty!"

"Knowing the truth, don't talk nonsense!" Qin Qiong scolded him, fearing that his younger brother would hate the ministers and be plotted to death by them in the future.

Duan Zhixuan's eyes flashed from the side, and suddenly he yelled with his neck, "Cheng Xiaopian, what do you mean? You and Brother Shubao are just following His Majesty? Do you think I'm a decoration?"

After his interruption, Gao Shilian, Xiao Yu and other civil officials were slightly relieved by anger.

Cheng Yaojin chuckled and said, "Brother Duan, don't care!" Qin Shubao nodded to him to express his gratitude.

Fang Xuanling's expression never changed. At this time, he said, "Sir, don't be impatient. Although General Cheng's words are vulgar, they are not unreasonable. What's more, Your Majesty went here to show his contempt and should not bring too many people. According to the opinions of the ministers, it is better to bring the ministers, Keming, Gao Da Ren, Xiao, and General Qin, etc. to seven people."

Li Shimin nodded after hearing this, then shook his head and said, "Xiao Aiqing doesn't have to go. The army is dangerous. Although there will be no killings when going there, Lord Xiao is a Buddhist and should not go there. In this way, Xuanling, Keming, please follow me."

The entourage decided that Gao Shilian, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin and Duan Zhixuan. Xiao Yu looked slightly embarrassed, but no one cared about him at this time. The general opened the city gate, and Li Shimin took the lead and took three civil, three martial and six cavalry out of the city.

With the sound of hooves, a group of seven light cavalry came straight out and arrived at the south bank of the Weishui River. From a distance, the Turkic army camps opposite were covered with blacks, but they were extremely quiet. In front of the army, on the bridge, fires flashed and thick smoke rose. In front of the fireworks, there was a figure sitting vaguely, with its back facing them, as if it was a Taoist priest.

Cheng Yaojin's eyes were rounded and he was surprised: "This Taoist doesn't want to live anymore? Or is it the helper found by the Turks?"

Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui felt that the Taoist's back was very familiar. He looked at each other and exclaimed: "It's Zhang Xuanqing and Zhang Zhenren!"

"What, is it him?" The other four people also heard of Zhang Xuanqing's name, especially the Xuanwu Sect Incident that had just passed. This person seemed to play a key role in it. Otherwise, the current Majesty Li Shimin would not have made up his mind so quickly, and he couldn't help but want to see how graceful this Taoist man was.

He quickly rushed forward and rushed to the front. Zhang Xuanqing heard the sound of horse hooves, and knew who the person was. He didn't turn his head. He lowered his head and said, "Your Highness the King of Qin is wrong. Now it's time to say that Your Majesty is gone for many days. Is Your Majesty safe?"
