Chapter 1291: Ancient Clan
The last time I saw Liu Xie, Ling Ying was shocked by Liu Xie's might, and this time I came and was suddenly guessed by Liu Xie's intention, Ling Ying couldn't help but feel even more apprehensive in her heart, but she had no choice but to come to be Gu Yuan's order, so she could only relayed Gu Yuan's conditions to Liu Xie.
Gu Yuan's appetite is very big, he proposed to Liu Xie on the condition that the Han allow him a quarter of the territory of Zhongzhou and the autonomy of the Gu clan in the territory, Gu Yuan said that as long as Liu Xie can meet these requirements, he can let the Gu clan pay tribute to the Han Dynasty, and at the same time agreed to marry Xun'er to Liu Xie as a concubine, Gu Yuan also said that when the Han and the Soul Hall fight, the Gu clan is willing to help.
"Just to form a marriage alliance with me and claim to the Han Dynasty, I want a quarter of Zhongzhou's land and autonomy, and the ancient patriarch's calculation is really loud!" Liu Xie snorted coldly after hearing the conditions of the ancient lion's big mouth.
Ling Ying was even more frightened when she saw the displeasure on Liu Xie's face, and said hesitantly: "My family patriarch said that the Xiao family has also obtained the land and autonomy of the Gama Empire, and the power of my ancient clan is dozens of times stronger than the Xiao family, and it deserves more privileges. ”
After relaying Gu Yuan's words, looking at Liu Xie's face that was worse than before, Ling Ying hurriedly knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, saying that this was the meaning of the upper echelons of the Gu clan, and he was just paraphrasing.
"Hmph!" Liu Xie slapped down the table beside him and broke into several pieces at once, "This Xiao family took the initiative to join the clan when I first arrived in the Douqi Continent, and Xiao Yan was the first courtier I accepted in the Douqi Continent, and I gave the Xiao family such great grace because I thought of this." ”
"Besides, regardless of the richness and barrenness of the territory, how can this quarter of the map of Zhongzhou be on par with the land of the Gama Empire!
After a few words, Ling Ying, who was kneeling in front of Liu Xie, trembled like chaff, the anger of the Son of Heaven of the Great Han Dynasty was indeed not something that ordinary people could bear.
But in fact, Liu Xie was only angry on his face, and his heart was not really angered by the lion of the ancient clan.
Liu Xie understands very well that now his negotiations with Gu Yuan are like doing business with the same market, whether it is a buyer or a seller, they will not explain their true reserve price to each other at the beginning, since Gu Yuan's lion is wide open, Liu Xie will naturally raise the kitchen knife of bargaining.
Looking at Ling Ying who was trembling in front of him, Liu Xie knew that his feigned anger just now had an effect, "You get up first, my anger is not aimed at you, it is really your patriarch who is a little insatiable, you can rest assured, I will never anger others." ”
Hearing Liu Xie's words, Ling Ying knew that her life was worry-free, so she finally breathed a sigh of relief, propping up her somewhat soft body, Ling Ying stood up and listened to Liu Xie's conditions.
"You go back and tell your patriarch that my Han territory will never allow the existence of a country within a country, and it is absolutely impossible for the Gu clan to occupy a quarter of the land in Zhongzhou, but if he really intends to submit, I can grant you the authority to exempt the ancient clan from paying taxes to the court for a thousand years. ”
"And, I have a word of caution. ”
"Your Gu clan had better not think that my Han can't defeat the Soul Hall without the Gu family, I know that the Soul Clan is also wooing the Gu Clan, and the Gu Patriarch is now really waiting for a price between the Han and the Soul Palace, and I also know that the conditions for the so-called one-quarter of the land and autonomy of Zhongzhou are actually derived from the conditions that the Soul Clan promised you to equally share the land of Zhongzhou with the other three clans. ”
"Go back and tell your patriarch that I persuade him not to be an enemy of my Great Han, I hope he can understand that with or without the assistance of the Ancient Clan, there will only be one result in the decisive battle between my Great Han and the Soul Palace, and that is the victory of the Great Han!"
Liu Xie stepped forward and patted Ling Ying on the shoulder and continued, "Don't think that it is vain for me to grant a thousand years of exemption from tribute, if your ancient clan is on the wrong side, after the decisive battle, not only will you not be able to get one-eighth of the Zhongzhou territory, but your entire ancient clan will face the disaster of extermination!"
"I think the thunder methods of my Great Han in the northwest of the Douqi Continent and Zhongzhou must also be known to the elders of your ancient clan, I will always be that sentence, if you dare to be the enemy of my Great Han, there is only one way to die!"
Liu Xie's statement scared Ling Ying into sweat, he didn't expect that Liu Xie could even know about the transaction between the ancient clan and the Soul Palace, this big man's intelligence network was really terrifying.
"Have you memorized everything I said?" Liu Xie stood with his back to Ling Ying and turned his head to Ling Ying to ask.
"Write it down, write it down, the villain must relay what the emperor said to my family patriarch word for word!"
"In that case, you can go back. ”
Wiping the sweat from his forehead, after Ling Ying said goodbye to Liu Xie, he was stopped by Liu Xie after just two steps.
"By the way, there is another thing, remember to tell your family patriarch in my personal name, the matter between the Han and the ancient clan is a state affair, and the state affair should not be mixed with personal feelings, and then it is best not to involve Xun'er when bargaining with me, whether Xun'er wants to marry me is a matter between me and her, and it has nothing to do with what we are planning today, and I don't want to use my relationship with Xun'er as a bargaining chip!"
"The small one has written it down, I don't know what else the emperor has to say, and the small one is good to convey it to the patriarch!"
"It's really okay this time, you can go. ”
Bowing to Liu Xie again, Ling Ying was afraid that Liu Xie would have something to explain, so he had to take small steps and walk backwards towards the gate of Liu Xie's bedroom, except for the gate of Liu Xie's bedroom, he breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the sweat beads on his forehead, and turned to leave.
"Xun'er, I know you're outside, come in and don't hide, it's cold and dewy, and it's not good to freeze your body. ”
After making sure that Ling Ying was leaving, Liu Xie looked out the window and let Xun'er, who had been eavesdropping outside the window before, come in.
"I didn't want to hide, it's just that Ling Lao is inside, after all, I am a member of the ancient clan, and I always feel that I should avoid it-" Xiao Xun'er saw that Liu Xie found out that she had to squirm into the house from the window, and explained to Liu Xie.
"Okay, I don't blame you, come and sit. Liu Xie asked someone to take the pieces of the table away, and at the same time, he asked someone to move a chair for Xun'er and let him sit down in front of him.
"Emperor, if our Gu family really takes refuge in the Soul Palace, will you really wipe out my Gu clan?" Xun'er asked Liu Xie with a sad face.
"Don't worry, the ancient patriarch is not such a stupid person, since he didn't agree to the soul hall's alliance request at the first time, but sent someone to find me, it means that he knows that the soul hall is not my Han's opponent, and the reason why he opened his mouth to my lion today is just to get a little more benefits for the ancient clan, I can understand. ”
