"General, take him back to the Kingdom of Wu." Another lieutenant general said with a grin: "I believe King Wu Hui will like to drink tea with him, play chess, and play with women together if nothing happens."
Guo Yi understood the thoughts of several lieutenants, which was to put King Zhao under house arrest in the Kingdom of Wu.
From then on, Zhao State will obey Wu State's orders. In this way, the threat from Zhao State in the north will be gone.
Guo Nian didn't know what to do. He looked at Guo Yi: "Father, what do you think...how should we deal with it?"
"Let him go." Guo Yi replied.
"Why?" Guo Nian asked in surprise.
Guo Nian did not expect that his father would so readily agree to let King Zhao go. Although there is no precedent for imprisoning a king in history, whenever a king is captured, which one will not break the country's bones and suck its marrow?
A king is worth millions of gold, isn’t it an exaggeration?
What a God-given opportunity. The Wu State has a small land area, so it has few domestic resources, a small population, and its annual tax revenue is not much. It is less than one-third of the Zhao State. If we can use the King of Zhao as an opportunity, we can ruthlessly start from the Zhao State.
A ruthless plunder, why not?
"Let the world know that Wu Guo is not a young person." Guo Yi smiled lightly and said: "Let the world know that we can let him go, and we can also arrest him at any time."
"Yes!" Guo Nian nodded.
Several people unanimously decided to let King Zhao go.
It was Guo Yi who captured the person, and it was natural for him to let him go.
"You...you really let me go?" King Zhao asked.
"Yes!" Guo Yi nodded and said, "However, I hope to ask King Zhao to sign an agreement."
"What agreement?" King Zhao trembled and thought to himself, knowing that it would not be easy to let him go. He must want to plunder the country of Zhao.
However, the matter has come to this, no matter what conditions the other party proposes, I can only agree to it.
"Peace agreement." Guo Yi smiled calmly.
"Are you...are you sure it's just a peace agreement and there are no other forced conditions?" King Zhao asked.
"Don't you realize it all these years?" Guo Yi sat in front of King Zhao and said: "The world rises and falls, and the people suffer. War brings huge harm and pain to the common people. In this case, why can't we develop peacefully?
, Why must we fight? In the past few decades, you have seen the strength of Wu State. Zhao State’s desire to annex Wu State is absolutely a fool’s dream.”
King Zhao lowered his head and said nothing.
Guo Yi continued: "Of course, it doesn't matter if King Zhao doesn't want to sign a peace agreement. I will let you go back unconditionally. However, if you fall into my hands next time, I will never ask for anything, nor will you cede land and pay compensation.
"
"What about you?" King Zhao was stunned.
"Kill!" Guo Yi made a gesture.
King Zhao was so frightened that he hurriedly said: "I...I will sign."
The peace agreement first determined the demarcation of land boundaries.
From then on, the Thirteen Cities of Youzhou were placed under the ownership of the Wu State, and for thousands of years from now on, the Zhao State and the Wu State had reconciled and became an alliance. There would never be a war, and the terms were clearly written. If anything happens,
If you take the initiative to provoke a war, you must declare war on the whole world.
With this clause, it is estimated that King Zhao would not dare to break the contract even if he wanted to go back.
After all, who can be the enemy of all the countries in the world?
Using the power of one country to make enemies of the whole world? Wouldn’t that be courting death?
After signing the agreement, Guo Yi helped King Zhao heal the wound on his arm. He then ordered people to send King Zhao back to the Kingdom of Zhao.
After King Zhao left.
Everyone cheered, and from then on, there was no more war in Wu State. Because this war had lasted for decades. For Wu State, it was true that it did not become poor because of the war. It was thought that through plunder, Wu State
Become stronger.
The State of Zhao lost more than half of the land of the State of Chen. This land was not originally owned by the State of Zhao. Now it is assigned to the State of Wu. Although it is a bit of a loss, it seems to be okay. After all, only thirteen cities of Youzhou were exchanged for King Zhao.
The other party did not ask for millions or even tens of millions of gold for his life.
If the opponent's lion opens his mouth, the Zhao people can only agree.
However, no matter how hard they got there, Wu State did not open his mouth to the lion. Instead, they let him go after signing a peace agreement.
The signing of the peace agreement was definitely a great event for the people of Zhao and Wu.
Because since then, the people of the two countries have begun to live peacefully.
Moreover, according to the agreement, the two countries established a trade zone. The trade zone is located in one of the thirteen cities in Youzhou. This city has no restrictions on the exchanges between the people of the two countries. Therefore, it immediately attracted countless businessmen to enter this city.
Carry out business dealings.
In the following ten or twenty years, this city quickly developed into a large city with a population of over half a million, and attracted countless people to settle in this city.
Time flies, time flies.
Unknowingly, twenty years passed by in a flash.
After the regent was in power for several decades, Youzhou City became the second capital of Wu State.
Although the former capital was prosperous, it was still a city with a long history. Young people yearned for new places and liked opportunities and challenges. Therefore, many young people went to Youzhou City to seek opportunities.
Guo's courtyard.
Guo Yi has silver hair, and Zi Xing is also looking older.
After all, Purple Star's longevity is gradually approaching its limit, and the old look on his face is gradually showing.
Of course, her old age is not reflected in her body, but in her eyes.
Zixing's eyes gradually became hollow, as if she wanted to see through the sky and see the earth. In appearance, she was still a mature and charming young woman, and the aura she exuded in every word and deed was...
With a kind of charm.
"Husband, you are getting old." Zixing combed Guo Yi's long hair and said with a smile: "I feel it too, I am getting old too."
"Madam, you are still very young." Guo Yi smiled faintly.
"Why am I so young?" Zixing shook his head and said, "I am already over one hundred and sixty years old. The fox demon clan can reach Biduo who is two hundred years old. At my age, I can be considered to have lived a long life."
"Madam, do you regret not cultivating immortality with Li Rouyue and the others now?" Guo Yi asked.
"No regrets!" Zi Xing shook her head firmly.
"If you become an immortal, your lifespan may be five hundred, one thousand, or even tens of thousands of years." Guo Yi replied.
"No matter how long you practice, if you can't be with your husband, everything will be in vain." Zixing smiled softly. She combed Guo Yi's white hair carefully and said, "I can live with my husband in this world for fifty years."
, my life is already considered complete.”
"Madam, but I still want to be with you." Guo Yi gently held Zi Xing's hand.
