Eight hundred and twentieth chapters from the Sui's discussion
"King Li is so polite! King Li welcomes you personally, I am flattered!"
Seeing that Li Wang Wuxin actually welcomed him out of the house with such enthusiasm, humility and closeness, Yang Lin and others were quite surprised. They were stunned for a moment. Yang Lin sighed secretly and quickly bowed in response.
To put it bluntly, they came here this time to seek peace and were defeated.
If King Li does not agree, then he will negotiate for surrender, and he thinks he will be humiliated by everyone in Li Kingdom.
"The public belongs to the public, and the private belongs to the private. However, no matter when and where, Gu's respect, admiration and gratitude for the old prince will never change!"
Wu Xin responded solemnly and invited Yang Lin and other Sui envoys into the military tent.
This is an outdoor military camp, using a military tent, so naturally everything is kept simple. After everyone is seated, a cup of hot tea is enough!
Perhaps because of Li Wang Wuxin's unexpected courtesy, Yang Lin and others didn't know how to speak, and the atmosphere couldn't help but feel strangely silent.
"How is the old prince doing lately?" Wu Xin asked first, somewhat at a loss for words.
Yang Lin, who was holding a tea cup and trying to figure out what to say, put down the tea cup in his hand, shook his head and said with a wry smile:
"We are defeated one after another, surrounded by powerful enemies outside, and the people are panic-stricken inside, making it hard for them to sleep or eat well!"
Yang Lin and others thought that this was King Li's test. After careful consideration, Yang Lin decided to speak frankly. Anyway, there must be spies from Li Kingdom in the Western Capital, so there was no need to hide them.
"..."
Yang Lin agreed frankly, but Wu Xin didn't know how to answer the question and was a little embarrassed.
Still too soft-hearted!
After all, Yang Lin's "hard time sleeping and eating" now is because he left the army, and Wu Xin has always been grateful and respectful to Yang Lin.
"Actually, the general trend is now, and it is useless to persist. If it were not for the kindness of my king, who would not want to cause more killings, he would order a peaceful settlement without attacking! Our army can attack by force, so why wait?"
Seeing that Wu Xin was silent and a little embarrassed, Changsun Wuji took the initiative to shake his head and take over the topic.
"..."
The corners of Yang Lin's mouth twitched and he opened his mouth speechlessly. Is this also called "peaceful settlement"? It's basically killing people with soft knives and making life worse than death!
However, Yang Lin also knew that King Li and the ministers of Li Kingdom treated him and Sui Dynasty quite politely, which was more or less a reminder of their old friendship!
After thinking about it, Yang Lin simply looked at Wu Xin and asked clearly: "I don't know what King Li means? Can you speak frankly?"
"The world has returned, and the general trend is the general trend. Now only Guanzhong is left. If there is no peace in Guanzhong, even the grand ceremony of the Jin Kingdom cannot be held!"
Wu Xin thought for a while, then looked at Yang Lin calmly and responded. After a pause, he continued thoughtfully:
"This time the whole country sends troops, we will definitely not give up halfway, nor will we accept peace talks, nor will we allow a country within a country. However, Gu is an old official of the Sui Dynasty after all, and he will treat the Sui emperor and the ministers well. The old prince can
Submit the relevant list and we will take appropriate care of it as much as possible..."
"As expected..."
Yang Lin felt quite tired and lonely and sighed to himself.
Originally, Yang Lin was ordered to come to negotiate peace, but given the current situation, the possibility of King Li agreeing to negotiate was too low. No matter what price the Sui Empire paid, it would be useless.
The Sui Empire had already anticipated this. Yang Lin had been in contact with Wu Xin for a long time, so he had already guessed it.
Wu Xin was silent. Considering the situation in front of him, it was normal for Yang Lin and others to guess. Those who didn't guess were the fools who couldn't see the situation clearly.
"The matter has come to this. I just don't want to see the Emperor's lineage in trouble. I have nothing else to ask for. I wonder how King Li wants to settle it?"
Seeing Wu Xin's silence, Yang Lin spoke sincerely again, and reminded: "Of course, the most important resistance in the imperial court now is the Dugu family, the major wealthy families and forces... I can only represent the imperial lineage."
"What do you think of the old prince? We are all our own people, so there is no harm in speaking out!"
Wu Xin asked in a rather friendly manner, paused, and then continued with a cold look in his eyes: "As for the Dugu family and other wealthy families and forces, the old prince actually does not need to worry too much. As long as the old prince nods, it will not be difficult for our army to enter the city. When the time comes...
"
Before he finished speaking, Wu Xin's murderous intention was obvious.
Everyone knows that although King Li Wuxin comes from an ancient aristocratic family, he does not attach importance to or rely on the wealthy aristocratic families. Instead, he always has the intention of suppressing them.
Of all the wealthy families in the world, Guanzhong has the most, and Daxing, the Western Capital of the Sui Empire, is the most important.
Yang Lin was very doubtful that in order to eradicate the cancer of the family as much as possible, Li Wang Wuxin would massacre the Western Capital and end it all at once. Anyway, the domestic situation in Li State has stabilized and the people's hearts have basically returned. Even if they wipe out the Western Capital forcefully, they will not be able to bring down the problem.
Da Langhua, after all, is the enemy, and it is not difficult to prevaricate the army.
"The direct lineage of the emperor and the Dugu family are one hereditary prince; the side branches of the emperor's line each have the position of hereditary prince?"
Yang Lin looked at Wu Xin hopefully, and responded quickly and hesitantly, obviously he had something in mind.
"The old prince wants the lion to open his mouth... Gu Ke doesn't have the ability to make a king. It's useless even if he does. Does the old prince think they will want it?"
Wu Xin was shuddered, but he shrugged his shoulders and responded with a grin.
Yang Lin nodded to express understanding and quickly responded: "Of course, the Great Sui Dynasty once conducted in-depth investigation and study of the Kingdom of Heaven. Although it is definitely not as deep as Liguo, it is somewhat known. Now Liguo is just a kingdom, so naturally it cannot be crowned king. I
From now on, as long as Guanzhong is leveled, King Li can be crowned king, or even emperor, right?"
"Difficult! I believe that the old prince knows a lot about the outside world. It is too difficult for Gu to advance in this world...it is basically impossible. Otherwise, why would Gu suddenly change his mind and give up on the Jin State Ceremony?"
Wu Xin's face straightened, he looked at Yang Lin seriously, and then continued: "Does the old prince really think that Guanzhong is so important? It's just that he knows that this world is a place abandoned by heaven. It lacks spiritual energy and cannot support the destiny emperor.
The birth of the Jin State had to give up the grand ceremony of the Jin State. Obviously, if the Western Expedition is launched after the Jin State Grand Ceremony, our army's combat strength will be improved to a higher level. Not only..."
"Really not possible?" Yang Lin's expression changed and he stared at Wu Xin with sharp eyes and asked.
Wu Xin shook his head without hesitation and replied: "No! Gu has been looking for and excavating the spirit stone veins before, and collected them extensively. With the intelligence capabilities of Sui Dynasty and the old prince, he must be able to get a clearer picture! Unfortunately, it is not enough, not enough! Gu
The success of creating the kingdom of heaven depends not on this world, but on the treasures of foreign forces..."
"Is this world really so barren and lacking..."
Yang Lin murmured in a daze.
"Logically speaking, Da Sui and the old prince should know better than Gu about the situation."
Wu Xin responded with a frown, then continued:
"Yigu guesses that the so-called Lord of Kaiyuan (Emperor Wu of Jin) who first arrived here must have been a loser in the struggle for hegemony outside the territory. He fled here to survive in this barren and barren land that has no interest from outside the territory.
So...how much hope can we have for this world?"
Speaking of this, Wu Xin sighed and changed his tone:
"Of course, if the old prince wants to go out and have a look, Gu can promise to take the old prince out, and even any great monk can go out if he wants. But... everyone, life and death, has their own destiny, and they are responsible for the consequences, including Gu!
