Chapter 17 Negotiations in the Account

As soon as Du Ruhui entered Li Shimin's tent, Li Shimin, with a decadent face, quickly stood up to meet him. His decadent face showed a dark look of hope. He quickly asked Du Ruhui, "Mr. Keming, did Li Haochen agree? Is he willing to withdraw his troops?"

At this moment, Li Shimin's behavior was like an ant on a hot pan, and he was speechless, which made Du Ruhui shake his head secretly, and for the first time he felt like he was entrusted with something inhumane. However, this emotion just flashed by. Du Ruhui knew that he had no way out. He took a deep breath and told Li Shimin that Li Haochen agreed to withdraw and at the same time said three conditions for Li Haochen.

Li Shimin first listened to Du Ruhui's words that Li Haochen was willing to withdraw his troops, and was excited to dance in the wreath on the spot. Later, he was angry when he heard Li Haochen's three conditions, and slapped the table and said angrily, "Li Haochen is too bullying people, I'll fix the troops and fight with him now!"

As Li Shimin said, he called in the messenger, anxious that the generals of the army would prepare for a while to discuss the battle. Du Ruhui looked at Li Shimin who had lost his mind and sighed secretly in his heart. However, Li Shimin's decision affected the life and death of all his soldiers, including him. Du Ruhui could not see Li Shimin making such a wrong decision. He once again stopped Li Shimin from saying, "The King of Qin thought that we would go to war with Li Haochen now, what is the chance of victory?"

Since Fang Xuanling left him, Li Shimin relied on Du Ruhui's words very much. He thought about Du Ruhui's questions very seriously. When he began to think about Du Ruhui's words seriously, his irritability disappeared bit by bit. When he figured out the form of both the enemy and us, he regained a decadent expression on his face and said to Du Ruhui weakly, "I'm afraid there is no chance!" After saying this, Li Shimin seemed to have all his strength taken away, and fell into his commanding position with a look of indifference on his face.

Looking at Li Shimin who was already in vain, Du Ruhui sighed secretly again. For the lives of thousands of soldiers on his side, he had to say to Li Shimin again, "Since your highness already knows that there is no chance of winning the confrontation, why not agree to Li Haochen's conditions, preserve his strength, and leave a glimmer of life for the future. I wonder what Your Highness thinks?"

As soon as Du Ruhui finished speaking, Li Shimin's eyes, which had just been unsightly, suddenly widened, and a creepy light shot out from his eyes, staring at Du Ruhui fiercely, making Du Ruhui feel that if his eyes could kill people, he would have been wiped out at this moment.

After a while, Li Shimin sneered at Du Ruhui and said, "Du Ruhui, I know you must have reached an ulterior motive with Li Haochen. Do you want to use my head to protect your future glory and wealth? You asked me to agree to Li Haochen's conditions and disband the army. Isn't it just to let me give up resistance and stick my head out and chop it for Li Haochen? How sinister your intentions are! I didn't expect that I have always trusted you so much, and you actually want to learn from Fang Xuanling, who is like a traitor, betray me! Come on! Take this traitor down!"

As Li Shimin's order had just fallen, a group of soldiers rushed in from the big tent and stepped forward directly, tied up Du Ruhui up in a few seconds.

Li Shimin was suspicious. Hearing that Du Ruhui asked him to agree with Li Haochen's conditions and gave up resistance, he naturally thought that Du Ruhui and Li Haochen had reached some unspeakable deal, so he became furious. However, when the soldiers tied Du Ruhui up, he couldn't help but regret it because he knew that Du Ruhui would not betray him.

Du Ruhui's nephew Du Zhong failed to assassinate Li Haochen and unfortunately died. Du Ruhui almost fainted after learning the news and was very sad. He swore in front of him that his life was incompatible with Li Haochen. Li Shimin actually knew that Du Zhong was not Du Ruhui's nephew, but his biological son. When Du Ruhui was placed in Chang'an, Du Ruhui called him his nephew in order to cover up his eyes. Only he and Du Ruhui knew about this. The hatred of killing his son was irreconcilable. Thinking of such a great hatred with Li Haochen, he would definitely not fall to Li Haochen's side.

Although Li Shimin regretted it, he had no choice at this moment. After all, he knew how to lead troops and knew that the most taboo thing was to change the orders every day, which would make the commander's majesty disappear. The soldiers tied up Du Ruhui and did not go out. Instead, they waited for Li Shimin to further. Li Shimin had already thought it through and waved his hand to the soldiers powerlessly and said, "Take it down!" Although Du Ruhui felt aggrieved, he didn't say anything. He knew in his heart that Li Shimin had no trust in him and it was meaningless to say anything. Du Ruhui, who had followed Li Shimin for so long, had a confused feeling about the future for the first time.

Just as the soldiers took away Du Ruhui, another messenger came in and said to Li Shimin, "Your Highness, Mr. Chunfeng is looking for a meeting outside!"

Li Shimin listened to the person who came, and said excitedly, "Come in quickly!" It was no one else who asked to see Li Shimin. It was Li Chunfeng, director of the Intelligence Bureau of the Datang Hedong Road in his camp. Li Shimin thought that Li Chunfeng must have pleaded for Du Ruhui at this moment, so that he could also take advantage of the situation and have an excuse to let Du Ruhui go, so he was so excited at this moment.

Li Chunfeng entered the tent and bowed to Li Shimin and said, "My subordinate Li Chunfeng has met His Highness the King of Qin!"

After seeing Li Chunfeng, Li Shimin, who was depressed, had a smile on his face and said, "Mr. Chunfeng, don't be too polite! What's the matter with me?" In fact, Li Shimin has already determined that Li Chunfeng is here to plead for Du Ruhui at this moment, but as a superior, he still has to grasp the attitude he should take.

Li Chunfeng once again bowed respectfully to Li Shimin and said, "Subordinate, I will observe the celestial phenomena tonight and find that the light of the Greedy Wolf Star is so bright that your Highness is dim. You should avoid its light to harm your Highness's luck!"

Li Shimin did not expect that Li Chunfeng did not plead for Du Ruhui, but suddenly said this misty word came. However, people in this era still believed in Feng Shui and numerology, so Li Shimin temporarily put Du Ruhui's affairs behind his mind and asked, "Mr. Chunfeng, what does this mean? I am not very clear about it, so please let me know it!"

Li Chunfeng said with a slight hint of his jaw, "Your Highness, this Greedy Wolf Star is the enemy's commander Li Haochen. Now his luck has surpassed you. Now he can only withdraw his troops and avoid his light temporarily to avoid hurting His Highness's emperor's luck!"
