The State of Wei, Anyi, and the palaces of the State of Wei.

In the main hall, a group of Wei courtiers were sitting there wearing Wei official uniforms, silently waiting for the arrival of Wei Hou Wei?

"Your Majesty is here."

Following the call from the etiquette officer, the expressions on the faces of everyone present were solemn, and all eyes focused on the door of the main hall.

Not long after, Wei Hou, wearing a red robe, slowly walked into the hall in front of everyone's gaze.

Slowly walking through the central aisle and walking up the stairs, Wei? finally stood on the platform in front of the hall.

"I will pay my respects to you, Your Majesty."

"Everyone is safe."

His eyes quickly passed over the faces of the courtiers in front, and after taking in everyone's expressions, a bright smile appeared on Wei?'s face.

When this smile came into view of the courtiers below, everyone present looked at each other, and some doubts arose in their hearts.

Just as these Wei courtiers were calculating in their minds, a figure walked out of the queue and slowly came to Wei?

He bowed to Wei Wei who was above him, but heard this man say in a deep voice: "I'm wrong, I'd like to pay my respects to you. I see that there seems to be a sense of joy between your eyebrows. I wonder if there is something happy for you?"

Wang Cuo had just finished asking this question when Wei Xi's hearty laughter rang out in the hall.

After a few breaths, when the laughter gradually subsided, Wei Wei affirmed to everyone: "There is a happy event. This event is not only a happy event for me, but also a happy event for all the ministers in the palace and even the entire Wei State."

After saying this, he paused for a moment, took a breath in his chest, and then loudly announced the good news to the Wei courtiers below.

"Not long ago, I received good news from the front line. Sima led 40,000 troops and 60,000 Korean troops in a fierce battle at Maling, east of Xinzheng."

"Our army won a great victory in this battle. Except for a few of the 60,000 Korean troops, they were able to escape. The rest were either killed or captured by our Wei army."

When Wei Wei finished speaking, the hall was quiet for a moment, and then started to boil.

The Wei courtiers present looked around, and everything they saw was filled with joy and excitement.

Then an unknown person raised his head, and all the courtiers below faced forward and bowed to Wei?

"I would like to congratulate you, Your Majesty, and I would like to congratulate the State of Wei!"

"I would like to congratulate you, Your Majesty, and I would like to congratulate the State of Wei!"

"I would like to congratulate you, Your Majesty, and I would like to congratulate the State of Wei!"

…

Listening to the louder and louder congratulations in his ears, the expression on Wei?'s face suddenly became serious, "I would like to congratulate the state of Wei!"

When Wei?'s words rang out, the warm atmosphere in the hall suddenly reached its peak.

After a while, when the atmosphere gradually subsided, the Wei monarchs and ministers, who were still unfinished, returned to their respective seats.

After experiencing the excitement just now, the joy in everyone's hearts has been fully expressed, and now it is time for them to focus on how to proceed to the next step.

Looking at the entire battle on the southern front, all the Wei courtiers present knew very well that the balance of victory was almost entirely in their favor.

Sima Gongsun Qi and his army had already taken the initiative in this southern battlefield after winning the Battle of Huangchi, the Battle of Shouyuan, and the most important Battle of Maling.

The next step, what the Wei army has to do is to march to Xinzheng City and force South Korea to bow to Wei or even surrender.

It was precisely because he understood this that Wang Cuo, a senior official, stood up from his seat again and walked slowly to Wei Wei.

After bowing slightly, Wang Cuo turned to Wei and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, I believe that after the Battle of Maling, South Korea has lost the ability to counterattack our country Wei on the southern front."

"Although the 60,000-strong army led by Xiang Guo has been confronting the 80,000-strong Korean and Zhao coalition forces at the Huishui River for a long time, the situation on the entire battlefield is undoubtedly tilting towards our side."

"At this time, I thought that Wei State should send envoys to Xinzheng to persuade South Korea to surrender to Wei State."

In response to Wang Cuo's words, Wei Wei nodded gently after thinking for a moment.

"What the doctor said makes sense. If South Korea can be persuaded to surrender to our Wei State this time, the casualties of our Wei army can also be reduced, which would be a good thing."

Hearing the attitude expressed in Wei Xi's words, Wang Cuo felt happy and immediately recommended himself as the candidate to go to Xinzheng this time.

However, Wei?, who was above, suddenly changed the subject and said in a deep voice: "I think that South Korea's surrender to our Wei State must not be just a verbal admission of defeat. South Korea must agree to our Wei State's three conditions."

Hearing Wei Wei give the specific conditions, Wang Cuo's heart tightened, and then he heard Wei Wei slowly spit out his conditions.

"First, the Korean territory occupied by our Wei State during this battle should all be included in our Wei State's territory after the war."

"Secondly, South Korea must bear part of the money spent by Wei State in sending troops to South Korea in this war."

"Third, the Marquis of Han must come to Anyi, the capital of Wei State, to pay homage to me."

After listening to the three conditions put forward by Wei?, a slightly embarrassed look slowly appeared on Wang Cuo's face.

In Wang Cuo's view, South Korea may agree to the first and second conditions. After all, South Korea is at a disadvantage on the battlefield at the moment, and it is not difficult to accept that it is not difficult to accept the surrender of wealth or even cession of territory in order to call for a truce.

But Wei?’s third condition is to allow the king of one country to go to the capital of another country to meet the other country’s monarch. This is undoubtedly a severe trampling on the dignity of the Marquis of Han and even South Korea.

This is obviously a very excessive thing. If it were not irreversible, South Korea would never agree to this condition.

Just when Wang Cuo was thinking about the three conditions proposed by Wei?, Wei?'s eyes had already fallen on Wang Cuo.

"Since this matter was raised by the superior doctor, I will not bother the two masters, so I will go to Xinzheng as envoy of the superior doctor."

"Your Majesty, my Lord..."

Originally, Wang Cuo wanted to show his talents in front of Wei?, but he did not expect that this difficult matter would fall into his own hands.

With a bit of anxiety on his face, Wang Cuo asked Wei in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, I think South Korea may still accept the first and second conditions, but is the third condition too much?"

"There is no need to say anything, doctor. Everyone knows this matter well." After interrupting Wang Cuo's inquiry with unquestionable words, Wei? The look on his face became a bit kinder, "This time, Xinzheng and his party, doctor, will do their best."

And the reason is, if it succeeds, it will be a good thing, but if it fails..."

As he spoke, a coldness slowly emerged in Wei?'s eyes, and the murderous intent hidden in it made people shudder.

The so-called etiquette first, then attack. If the goal cannot be achieved by using etiquette, then you have to rely on your true strength.

Wei Wei had already said this. How could Wang Cuo not know what he was thinking? All he could do was agree.

"I will obey your Majesty's orders."

After this court meeting, the Marquis of Wei Wei decided to send an envoy to Xinzheng. Shortly after the court meeting, a carriage left Anyi and headed southeast.
