Less than half an hour had passed. His Majesty the Emperor urgently summoned the Third Prince. It seemed that he had already made his own decision in his heart. Several ministers over there also saw that the Third Prince had already arrived in their tents.
We have entered His Majesty the Emperor's tent. Now the matter is very clear. His Majesty the Emperor is going to compromise with that side. He is reluctant to put his empire in any danger. Of course, the main thing is not to let his position go.
Whatever changes occur, this is the most important thing, otherwise he will order an attack now and fight to the death with the people of the Cao Family Trading Company.
"Father? But the matter has been decided?" The third prince said after coming in to greet His Majesty the Emperor. The meaning of these words was also guessing. He was not sure what the Emperor was thinking in his heart. It might be
There are some other variables.
"Well, I've thought about it. Now that there are only two of us, father and son, there is no need to say so many beautiful words. The current situation is like this, and it is very simple. We must first keep the rights in our hands. It seems that I still
It's so kind. Before I left the capital, I had already sorted out the people in the capital. Most of the royal family members were driven out of the capital by me, but the only ones I exposed were the old guys. Look.
I thought wrong. I thought that after the young ones left, these old guys would be at ease, but they didn't do what I thought. Just look at the joint letter from these ten princes. They are already interested in it.
I took my position, and your brothers and brothers in the capital helped me support it hard. This matter can be considered a good harvest. You brothers can still distinguish when to fight and when to unite. This is also
It's a blessing in misfortune. Let's not talk about it now. I want to ask you to sign an agreement with Li Cong on my behalf." His Majesty the Emperor said a little tiredly. There were many such things in history.
If you are not a little cautious, you may be able to praise yourself in all aspects. It is no good for someone who has been an emperor to be pulled down.
"Father, please tell me that my son will definitely handle this matter well." The third prince said solemnly. He had never seen his father like this. Something must have happened that he could not control.
If he could control it, he would definitely not show it in front of his son. Ever since the third prince was young, the emperor had given him the feeling that all the storms were shouldered by the emperor himself. Only at this time was he a
His father's. But now, he felt that his father was starting to panic. This was definitely not a good thing. In fact, he was a little scared in his heart.
"Twenty-five provinces are too few. It is absolutely impossible for us to mobilize so many troops to get just that little. Li Cong has to give up at least 50 provinces. As for his benefits, it will naturally not be possible.
Without him, some islands in the South China Sea can be given to him. Anyway, they are gone now. Give them to him, and you can give him the title of Duke, ostensibly letting him help me manage it.
In the southern sea area, tell him that it is just a name. We will not ask for any other taxes or anything. Open most areas of the empire to the Cao Family Trading Company, and he can come in to do all legal business. The ocean-going fleet is also handed over to
His condition is that we can end this dispute decently, and if he can give us some of those weapons, we can cooperate with him in some depth, for example, we can sell him some mining rights in the empire."
His Majesty the Emperor is indeed a great hero. No one else would have said such a thing. This was already bleeding himself. The third prince also felt the gap between himself and his father. If he were the emperor,
Otherwise, he would definitely not be able to make so many sacrifices. At this moment, he was a little scared, and even a little speechless. The emperor glanced at this kid and shook his head helplessly. He looked very shrewd from the outside.
Yes, why don’t you know the choice at this critical moment? I can’t bear to let go of my children to trap the wolf. I don’t understand this. How can I become a superior person? But considering that my son is still so young, there is no way he knows so much.
of.
"Boy, what's the matter? Time is running out. We don't have much time for you to stay here now. If he has any excessive ideas, just think about it and agree." The emperor thought for a while and said, this arbitrary decision was made at the last moment.
Emperor Quan had never given it before. What he said before was not as good as what he said now. The third prince looked at his father with some surprise. In his impression, although his father was older,
He is very conservative about rights. Neither his son nor his brother have too many rights, but now he is given such great rights.
"Haha, what kind of look is this? Now it's time for us to give in. If we still can't give in, we may be nothing in a few days. We must take advantage of the fact that the army is still in our possession.
In order to create such a false victory, you must first settle the internal affairs before fighting against the outside world. You must understand this truth. It doesn’t take a few years for the Cao Family Trading Company to infiltrate without making much progress. In these few years,
We have a lot of things to do, but if we can't end this war now, we will really be doomed." His Majesty the Emperor took a deep breath and said, feeling really uncomfortable in his heart. An emperor should never know how to do this.
I had to admit defeat, but I have to admit defeat now.
"My son knows, let's go and have a good talk with that Li Cong. We will definitely be able to get the fifty provinces back to our empire for our father. This trip may take a long time, so don't worry too much, father."
, my son met Li Cong. Although his son is not very good at recognizing people, he can still feel confident that he also wants to negotiate. He is a businessman and will definitely abide by the business rules.
Yeah, it sounds nice to say that we are good friends with that guy Linghu. In fact, I think the price we offered didn’t reach that person’s bottom line. If it had, I guess he wouldn’t have any hesitation.
." Hearing his son say that, His Majesty the Emperor finally showed a smile on his face. He has been cultivating him for decades. Anyway, this boy really did not disappoint him. He can say such words.
It proves that this kid has really grown up and can analyze some news very well.
"Well, you have to be more careful when you go here. This can be regarded as a test given by your father. If the matter is completed, a county prince's hat will definitely be given to you. Among your brothers, except for the prince who currently has a title, the other
All the people have no titles. I hope you won’t disappoint me." After His Majesty finished speaking, he waved his hand and asked him to go out and do his business quickly.
After walking out of His Majesty the Emperor's tent, this guy's heart couldn't calm down for a long time. Such words have no weight when spoken by others, but the person speaking now is his father, the emperor of the Eastern Empire. These words are completely
It’s different. Prince of the county? Haha. My starting point is really much higher. According to the rules of the Eastern Empire, the prince will have his own title when he reaches the age of twenty. Move out of the palace, but you must
Only if he has some merit that he can get out of the house, if he doesn't have any merit, he will be an earl at most. After leaving the palace, earls can be said to be all over the streets. If his mother is very powerful, he will be regarded as an earl after leaving the palace.
No one dares to neglect it, but if your mother is not of such a high status, you may end up as an earl after you come out. The prince will be the county king at the beginning. This is definitely a great honor for the prince.
, how could he not do this well with all his heart.
Returning to his camp, the 500 personal guards of the third prince are already ready. The third prince himself is also an excellent sixth-level archer. There are many archers in this military camp, but he is so young.
But it is rare, and he has no shortage of gold, silver, jewelry and other things. Every prince is born with a family fortune of tens of millions of silver, so they can have nothing to worry about for their whole life, but
These high-quality magic arrows are not so easy to come by, and this thing is a consumable item. Once it is used up, it is gone. After using such good magic arrows, and then using those rubbish ones, I naturally feel sad.
Uncomfortable, the boy Li Cong gave as a gift was also very satisfied.
The third prince glanced at his personal guards, who were all composed of sixth-level warriors, and said nothing else. These people had been following him since he was ten years old, and they have been following him until now. Most of them followed him back then.
They are all third-level and fourth-level warriors, and now the lowest ones are all sixth-level warriors. In the past ten years, I have spent a lot of money on them. If there were not so many elixirs, they would not be able to use them.
Maybe they upgraded so quickly. In just ten years, it took others decades to go. They all knew clearly that all this was given to them by the third prince. In their eyes, they only had
This master and other people, including His Majesty the Emperor, cannot order them. Although on the surface they may obey His Majesty the Emperor's orders, in fact it is definitely not the same thing. They all have their own thoughts.
"Let's go." The third prince waved his hand and led his people out. The five hundred people were all riding tall horses. Each one of them knew very well what they were going to do this time. They also felt it when they went there last time.
It's very dangerous. It may be even more dangerous this time. Last time we met only people from the Cao family business, but this time there were people from the Linghu family. The reason was that Li Cong was afraid that there would be someone between him and Linghu.
If there was any problem, Linghu sent someone here. Of course, all the decision-making power was still in Li Cong's hands. The person who came was just to help Li Cong with his advice. It was said that the person who came was Master Linghu's.
As for his sister, his intention was very clear, that he wanted to get closer to Li Cong, but such things as marriage were not very useful in the face of specific interests.
The city gate was opened again. It was the second time in this day that the city gate was opened. The Eastern Empire's speed of doing things was also very fast. There was no bureaucratic thought at all. If this was like this before
Important things have to take several months to decide, but now we don’t need that much time at all, and we haven’t found anyone to discuss this matter. The emperor has made his own decision, but in fact, this matter is someone else’s.
He also dared not give his opinion. If such a thing is right, it may not bring much credit, but if it is wrong, it will be the death of the Nine Clans. Prince Shen does not dare to say anything about this matter. He can only let the emperor do it himself.
This happened. But it was obvious that he did it very quickly.
The Eastern Empire's army retreated ten miles. This was what was agreed upon at the beginning. Otherwise, if one side opened the city gate and the other side rushed over directly, this would not be easy to handle. The third prince took his five
Hundreds of people entered the city. Some people in the original city did not allow the third prince to bring so many people. Just like last time, a few dozen people were enough. However, Li Cong didn't have that many ideas. In fact, dozens of people were allowed.
Is there any difference between an individual and five hundred people? If there are five hundred eight-level warriors, it may not work. But five hundred six-level warriors are really nothing. If nothing else, I want to solve the few monsters I brought with me.
It's all very easy for them. If nothing works, then there's himself. Li Cong hasn't personally taken action for a long time. But he concluded that the people in the Eastern Empire will never be so stupid. Now is a time of life and death for them.
.
The third prince knew a little bit about this city. After entering the city, he walked along the main street towards the city lord's palace. It seemed as if this city had never experienced a war, and even some strategic materials on the market
There is no price increase. All this is caused by Li Cong. Not to mention that they haven't blocked this place yet. Even if it is blocked, they probably have their own ability to support it. Thinking of this, this guy can only be happy that they chose to cooperate.
, otherwise I don’t know how much loss I will suffer. I would not do such a thing.
Li Cong came out to greet him this time. We all have to cooperate with him, so naturally there is no need to put on such airs. Moreover, if he comes so quickly, he will lose some face, but he will definitely do it.
With practical benefits, it seems that I made the right decision to help the Linghu family guard the city this time. Someone from the Linghu family has indeed come, and this person is Linghu's sister.
Hu Jia, a beautiful girl from the Linghu family, although she is not the most beautiful in the huge Linghu family, she can definitely be ranked in the top three. In fact, this woman is not only amazing because of her appearance.
The most important thing is this woman's brain. His brain can be said to be very powerful. Li Cong can feel it after talking to her for a few words. This woman's calculation level is about the same as that of Master Linghu. Fortunately,
This is a woman. If this is a boy, it is hard to say what the Linghu family will look like now.
"Let me introduce you. In fact, we are not very familiar with you two, but now I can only reluctantly introduce you to each other. Maybe you have met each other in the imperial capital before.
, but now we meet on this new occasion, we are here to negotiate, the third prince of the Eastern Empire, Linghu Jia of the Linghu family." Li Cong said with a smile, the reason why he said this was because he thought he was
Like a middleman, the third prince felt very comfortable with Li Cong's words. However, although the Linghu family felt uncomfortable, they still didn't show it on their faces. They nodded to the third prince generously. They used to be in the capital.
We have met several times, but we are not very familiar with each other. The identities of both parties are basically the same, but there is no mutual interest between the two parties, so there is no need to talk.
"I have heard that the Linghu family has beautiful women, and today it seems that they are indeed well-deserved. Mr. Cao, I heard that Linghu is ready to hand over this beauty to you. I am really envious." The third prince whispered on the way.
He said to Li Cong, acting very intimately. Such an intimate gesture was a bit too much for their relationship, but Li Cong didn't say anything, just a slight smile on his face. For such an intimate gesture,
Roses with thorns, I have always stayed away from, otherwise I will be the one who gets hurt. Such a girl’s heart is more about rights, rather than living a good life. I have no feelings for such a woman.
I have no interest in it, but I also know that if I refuse this gift, I guess Linghu will not be able to sleep all night, especially during this negotiation.
The three of them called their entourage out, and started the most important negotiation in the former city lord's study. The court could not afford to delay, so the third prince spoke first. Regarding Li Cong,
They agreed to the proposal, but required that the land to be ceded should be increased. 25 provinces were absolutely not enough. He asked for 60 provinces, but in fact he only wanted 50. He just wanted to give himself
Just leave a certain amount of space. Li Cong also knew this very well, so he directly returned the price of 50. Of course, he also gave the court an extra step, that is, their troops would create
If there is a flaw and they run away, the Linghu family's army will lose millions of people. This kind of acting is still very good. Although Linghujia on the side wanted to speak several times, but thinking of what her brother said, she
She has endured it all, she has never valued others in her life. Her brother is considered a talent. The Li Cong in front of her is also considered a talent. Under such a disadvantage, he can still keep the city undefeated, and can even force
It really made her feel a little strange that the imperial court signed such an alliance under the city. She really didn't know how this guy did it.
Both parties wanted to make peace with this negotiation. A basic treaty was formed half an hour later. The Linghu family promised not to establish another empire within ten years, nor to publicly announce rebellion. They could even
Some of the family's children were handed over to the court, and the court promised not to kill these people, but to lock them up. The remaining fifty provinces still belonged to the Linghu family, and the court promised not to take any initiative within ten years.
To attack them, the Linghu family will not mess around. If you act recklessly, then I'm sorry. The court also has its own limit of tolerance. Of course, Li Cong will naturally not forget his own interests and work on his own.
Of course you will have your own gains after a while.
In order to avoid possible problems between the two sides, such as friction and the like, all 36 counties and cities in the border areas between the two sides are regarded as neutral areas, and people from the Cao Family Trading Company are in charge of them. Of course, these officials are still
The people sent by the imperial court and the Linghu family are only responsible for the security of the city. Both sides understand that these dozens of cities may become like the dozen cities along the coast, but the imperial court does not
I believe in the Linghu family, and the Linghu family doesn't believe in the imperial court, so they can only let Li Cong's people defend them. However, each city can only station 50,000 troops, and let the Cao family business support these people through taxation.
, the two parties will come back to discuss the final solution to this matter ten years later.
On the surface, a certain proportion of the tax revenue in the areas occupied by the Linghu family should be given to the court. They did not object. In fact, everyone knew this. This was just to give His Majesty the Emperor a face. By then, billions would be paid every year.
Will they really give you the money? That would be a big mistake. It is absolutely impossible. The Linghu family wants two counties in the southern coastal area to serve as their outlet to the sea. The court does not want to agree to this.
However, thinking that Li Cong had already been promised that the Cao Family Trading Company could operate its own business in most areas, it would not make much sense to control the Linghu family. It would be better to be a good person, so I agreed.
They also know that this is an important channel for the people of the Linghu family to contact the Cao Family Trading Company, and some of the Cao Family Trading Company's things will be shipped here.
One problem is Li Cong himself. The imperial court gave him the title of Duke and built him a Duke's Palace in the capital. Now Li Cong has occupied more than a dozen cities on the southern coast and a large number of islands on the southern coast.
Yes, it is legally confirmed that these things belong to the Cao family business, but Li Cong will not be able to occupy other people's places from now on. Li Cong also agrees with this. In fact, he has eaten so much now.
It just so happens that I need some time to digest the territory. Anyway, the power is in my hands. It is very easy for me to tear up this agreement whenever I want. There will be absolutely no obstacles. Most people will follow me.
The way of doing things is the same.
Li Cong doesn't care much about dukes or anything like that. There are a lot of nobles in the Eastern Empire. There are as many as eighty or more dukes in the Eastern Empire. One more than him is not too much, and one less than him is not too much. In fact, Li Cong understands this.
It's a bit wrong. There are many nobles, but not many nobles who have their own fiefdoms. Moreover, the Duke of Li Cong can be hereditary and replaceable. The other nobles will have to do so when they reach their son's generation.
Downgraded one level, Li Cong still has a lot of benefits, but what he wants is the whole world, and the title of a duke naturally does not matter to him.
"We have basically discussed our matters. I wonder if Mr. Cao has time to talk to me alone. I have some things to discuss with Mr. Cao. Don't worry, there is absolutely nothing to do with the Linghu family.
The relationship is a matter between both of us. I wonder if Miss Linghu can avoid it? I know it is very rude to ask a lady to avoid it, but what we talk about next is of great importance. And it will definitely be with you.
It's okay." When the two sides finalized some details of the negotiation, the third prince said suddenly. Neither Li Cong nor Linghu Jia thought about what this guy wanted to do.
"Hmph, I don't want to know about your affairs yet. I know what your plans are. Mr. Cao, Xiaojia will go down first." Linghujia also understood that she could not continue to come here. If Li Cong was clear,
If he objected, he could be here, but now he has no objection. If he continues to be here without knowing how to flatter him, he may arouse the resentment of two people. He is not a fool, and he will never do such a thing.
To do it.
Li Cong nodded, and Linghu Jia went out. Of course Li Cong knew what the person in front of him was going to say. If it had nothing to do with the Linghu family, it would definitely have something to do with his weapons. If the war in front of him could
If it's over, I will naturally retire a large number of weapons, especially the serial crossbows. I can at least take out hundreds of thousands and give them to them when the time comes. However, the service life is stipulated, so you can't do it.
When the spring comes out, why don't you come with us to buy it? You will definitely not be cheap in terms of money.
"If your Highness the Third Prince has something to say, just tell him directly," Li Cong said.
"Haha, as for what I told you last time, Mr. Cao also has his own news system in our empire. We are unstable in the capital. My father's army lost a lot in this war, so we have to strengthen our
The combat effectiveness of the army has been improved. I wonder if you can sell us some of these weapons and so on. Just tell us the price. We will never bargain. We also know that these things are not cheap." This guy is also very good.
Directly, after having dealt with Li Cong for such a long time, I naturally knew exactly who this guy was.
Weapons and equipment? Li Cong knew that this guy would definitely talk to him about this matter, but he didn't expect to tell him about this situation so early. Isn't it a bit too early? Now the two parties have just signed a letter of intent.
After that, the emperor of the Eastern Empire would have to personally use the jade seal to complete it. Now that it came out, Li Cong was a little undecided, but Li Cong also understood that this could be regarded as a sincerity from the other party. If they didn't want to follow
Naturally, if Li Conghe talks, the purchase of weapons will not come up, and they will also show their weaknesses.
"Your Highness, to be honest, I don't have many weapons. You have seen the wars in the past few days. I have really consumed a lot of weapons here. If it is a small amount, it is okay, but if it is too much,
I guess I have some difficulties here." Before clarifying the specific matter, the important thing is that before seeing the price they gave him, why did Li Cong say this, and now Li Cong has also made certain decisions on the serial crossbow.
The modifications, even the crossbow arrows used, are not something that existed in this era. Li Cong set the crossbow arrows at a certain size. Only with the help of a tool used by the Cao family business can the crossbow arrows be made well.
It is not impossible to use the serial crossbow, but it is not impossible to use other manufactured ones, but I won’t say more about the accuracy. Such tools are also made by the Cao Family Trading Company from the earth, just like a mold, so
This arms sale is absolutely necessary. If it is done well, it can ensure that the Cao family business does not need to worry about its own safety for a long time. The major empires will not be stupid when they buy their own weapons.
If you do it yourself, of course, they may research it after many years, but by that time, the Cao Family Trading Company will have some new weapons, and this will be outdated.
"That's right, the war has just ended, and I'm a little impatient. I definitely don't need a large amount, and I don't need a small amount. I just need 5,000 serial crossbows. According to my observation, on the battlefield here,
There are at least hundreds of thousands of them, so there should be no problem in giving us 5,000, and the price is easy to negotiate. Mr. Cao can just set the price." The third prince didn't have anything to do with the cannonballs and grenades. He knew that Li Cong would definitely
They won't give that to him, that's for sure. If they take it, the explosives in it will be easily researched. If you get them out, although you won't be able to get out the shells, the explosives will still be there.
Bags and other things must have been found, so I won't leave this matter to you. At most, I will give you some serial crossbows. Of course, Li Cong will gradually tamper with the contents of the grenades.
Yes, adding some other chemicals will not affect its power, it will just make them more complicated. Sometimes it is good to complicate simple problems, but that is also a matter for the future. We cannot do that now. I leave it to
The Linghu family is completely helpless. Now they are about to be defeated. Naturally, they don't have so much thought to study this. If Li Cong had not dared to give it to them before, all the grenades would have to be used later.
Get them all back, otherwise you will be in trouble of your own.
5,000 serial crossbows? This number is not that much. They probably did that after seeing what happened to Young Master Linghu in the capital. They also thought so after seeing the results achieved by those 5,000 people.
.Otherwise they wouldn’t do that. Everyone will definitely have other ideas, and the price will definitely be very high.
"If there is only such a small quantity, this matter can be discussed. If my army here does not fight, I can give it to you, but the price is not low. I have to pay for each of these things.
For more than 600 taels of silver, the price of each bow and arrow is 500 wen." Li Cong thought for a while and said, opening his mouth very wide. Of course, this price is not for such a small batch, and it will definitely be in the future.
They will also ask for it in large quantities, and the price is more than a hundred times higher. What kind of things can make money like this? This transaction is naturally trivial, but in the future, there will definitely be a large number of purchases in the Eastern Empire. Really
We don't have to be afraid when we get to the battlefield. Your crossbows can't shoot as far as ours, but they're rigged, and your endurance isn't as strong as ours. You'll know when the time comes.
"The price is not a problem, it's just that we want 5,000 in the first phase, and next time we hope to get 500,000. I wonder if Mr. Cao can satisfy us with this amount? Of course, in addition to these monetary transactions,
We have other good things that are cheaper for Mr. Cao. We know that Mr. Cao’s navy is very powerful at sea. Our southeastern coastal areas from east to west are very rich areas. I think the navy from the past will also come.
After that, how about a coastal province as our thank you gift? As long as Lord Cao's army can attack here, then this province will be Lord Cao's fiefdom from now on, and the imperial court will not ask for anything here every year.
"This guy actually said such a thing and asked an outsider to attack his territory. Even Li Cong didn't quite understand this matter. He intuitively told himself that the matter was not that simple.
500,000 serial crossbows are easy to talk about. We have a lot of this here, which is a matter of hundreds of millions of silver. I just didn’t expect that this guy would give me such a condition. I must not lose my mind in the face of temptation. If I really
If you lose your mind, you will be no different from a fool. Maybe this is a trap. Now anything can happen. The person in front of you is not even your friend. A day ago, the two of them were still friends.
Working hard.
"Haha, do you need to explain this matter more clearly? I think it doesn't make sense. Why would you people in the Eastern Empire want an outsider like me to attack your territory? Isn't it right to say this?
It's very unbelievable. I don't understand this matter. Generally speaking, I won't attack decisively on things I don't understand." Li Cong thought for a while and said, his words also made the third prince think highly of Li Cong again.
At first glance, he could refuse such a big temptation from a coastal province. Such a person is indeed very remarkable. It is also very good for such a person to be his supporter.
"Of course, to make it clear, the royal family in our empire is the most powerful. In the past, apart from my father, it was the Linghu family. Now the Linghu family is gone. The next one is my third uncle.
My third uncle can be said to be a strange person in the entire empire. He doesn't care about the affairs of the court at all. Of course, it can now be proved that the reason why he doesn't care is because this guy is dormant. He actually cares about these things.
, now that the empire is in danger, he has stepped forward. Of course, he is not standing up to solve the problem for my father, but this guy wants to replace my father. He doesn't know that we have become friends with Mr. Cao.
My father is going to give this guy a hard blow. The province on the coast is his biggest source of financial revenue and his main camp. It is all yours now. It is conservatively estimated that the wealth there is a lot. My third uncle is in the country.
His reputation is that he is as rich as the country. I wonder if Mr. Cao is satisfied with this explanation?" The third prince felt a little uncomfortable when he thought of his fat third uncle. This guy usually hides very well.
Now that something has happened to the empire, they immediately jumped out and wanted to be at odds with the emperor. It is said that they have already started recruiting troops in the capital.
If this war continues, it may be a luxury for them to go back. His third uncle will definitely control the capital in a short time, and then use the defeat of His Majesty to attack His Majesty the Emperor.
There will also be a large number of rebels. At that time, the Eastern Empire will really change hands. No one can bear such a thing. If he hadn't jumped too hard, the emperor of the Eastern Empire would not be willing to let such a thing happen.
A piece of fat meat was given to Li Cong. It is said that this guy's family fortune is more than trillions of silver. There are so many greedy people. This time, Li Cong really got an advantage.
"Haha, there is no problem with this explanation. It's just that Mr. Cao ate too much with so many things. This is good. An airship will be used by your royal family for two years. 500,000 serial crossbows, each equipped with 300 crossbow arrows. When I
It's a gift to you, no, I paid tribute to His Majesty the Emperor." Li Cong said with a smile, he got benefits, he just said one or two good words, and there was nothing to say about the rest.
The third prince was also happy that Li Cong was so sensible. What the court wanted was face, and what Li Cong wanted was benefits, and he was able to remove the prince's foundation. It can be said that both parties got what they wanted.
The East Empire really can't stand the trouble now, and it must take a good rest for a while. It is estimated that it will be the ten years mentioned in the contract. Ten years later, it is estimated that it will not be what it is now, at least the East Empire
The emperor would not swallow this breath at that time. If there was no adaptation, neither the Linghu family nor Li Cong would have an easy life. At that time, Li Cong would have to worry. He only had ten years of time.
