Chapter 115: Blatant cheating
Tai'an City, which was once the imperial capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty, has witnessed the inheritance of the Great Zhou Dynasty for thousands of years, witnessed the rise and decline of this ancient empire until its destruction, and now, it will witness the advent of a new era, which belongs to the Great Qin Empire and belongs to the Qin Emperor Haotian.
After Haotian entered Tai'an City, in addition to the key position of the arrangement of confidants, the rest of the departments still appointed the old ministers of the Great Zhou, and at the same time treated the Great Zhou royal family well, gave Ji Yong the king of Zhou, and took the land of a county in Yunzhou in the south as its fief, and ordered it to immediately lead the Ji family to the fiefdom to serve, and now most of the Central Plains has been occupied by the Great Qin army, and the remaining part is occupied by the Great Chu, only a very small part of the territory is still under the control of the old ministers of the Great Zhou, but with the return of Ji Yong to the Great Qin, these cities also quickly changed their flags and became the territory of the Great Qin.
Zhongzhou, also known as the Central Plains, is the core of Kyushu, throughout the ages, but all those who can occupy the Central Plains, all of them have become a generation of overlords, dominating the Central Plains, there is the foundation of swallowing the world, because the Central Plains is vast and rich, fertile for thousands of miles, densely populated, talented, a Central Plains land, comparable to three Yunzhou.
In ancient times, almost all the powerful empires that could unify the six states of the Southern Continent occupied the Central Plains first, and then conquered the remaining five states step by step, but the Great Qin went the opposite way, going all the way north from Yunzhou, and forcibly destroyed the Great Yin and the Great Zhou one after another, and established the position of the overlord of Kyushu in one fell swoop.
Now that it has occupied Zhongzhou, of course, it is no longer necessary to take Yunzhou as the core, Haotian intends to change Tai'an City to Chang'an, take the meaning of Changping Jiuan, and then move the capital to Chang'an, on the one hand, it is convenient to govern the world, on the other hand, it is also to guard against the northern Aurora Dynasty, before which the Aurora Dynasty has secretly supported the Jin State to make trouble, obviously intending to infect the six states of Lu, so it is necessary to strengthen vigilance.
Of course, moving the capital is not a child's play, the matter is big, and it needs to be considered in the long run, now what Haotian needs to do is to completely stabilize the situation in the Central Plains first, and wait for Gong Li to fulfill his promise, as long as Da Chu retreats, then Da Qin is estimated to have a long period of peace, if Da Chu is unwilling to retreat, then the war between Da Qin and Da Chu may break out soon.
Gong Li did not let Haotian wait too long, he only entered Tai'an City for three days, Gong Li came to the door, and the two met in Tai'an City, which is the highest place in the entire Tai'an City, overlooking the entire city, just like the Feixiantai in Xishu, surrounded by a sea of clouds all year round, magnificent.
The first thing Haotian did when he saw Gong Li was to hand her the letter left by Nangong Ci, he knew that Gong Li trusted Nangong Ci very much, so Nangong Ci's defection was a big blow to her, perhaps from Nangong Ci's point of view, he himself was a person from Daqin, and it was not wrong to do so, but people are not grass and trees, how can they be ruthless? Staying in Da Chu for so many years, it was Gong Li who helped him survive the catastrophe and made him completely turn into a human form, and it was also Gong Li who gave him enough trust to give him the opportunity to become the military god above 10,000 people under Da Chu alone, how could he easily forget this kindness? Not to mention that deep down in his heart, he has always had a trace of affection for Gong Li, and now he betrayed Da Chu and betrayed Gong Li, the guilt in his heart is self-evident, and he doesn't even dare to see Gong Li again, because he knows very well that Gong Li's betrayal of him may never be forgiven.
"Mr. Silver Fox was very guilty, he said that he had no shame to see Emperor Chu again, and he did not want to return to Daqin as an official, so he left Kyushu and went to the boundless sea, and he was afraid that he would not have a chance to see him again in this life. Haotian saw that Gong Li had been silent after reading the letter left by Nangong Ci, so he took the initiative to say that he could understand Gong Li's thoughts at this time, after all, Da Chu was up and down, and Nangong Ci was the person she trusted the most.
Hearing Haotian's words, Gong Li smiled indifferently and said:
"Each is his own master, there is no betrayal, he has done nothing wrong, he has not been sorry for me, I lost this game of chess, I lost completely, and I have nothing to say. ”
Haotian sighed secretly, the more Gong Li behaved so indifferently, the more it showed that she took it very seriously, Nangong Ci's betrayal seemed to hurt her deeply, she was an extremely arrogant person, and the same is true for Haotian, they can't tolerate anyone's betrayal, for example, if Haotian betrayed him between Xiao Pojun and Mr. Mobai, I'm afraid he would never laugh at it.
"According to the covenant between us, my Great Qin is the first to enter the Imperial City of the Great Zhou, the Emperor of Chu should join my Great Qin as a minister, and the Great Chu army should also withdraw from the Central Plains, I don't know if it counts?" Although Haotian knew that saying this at this time was tantamount to sprinkling salt on Gong Li's wounds, but the current situation must be decided by Gong Li, otherwise some of the cities occupied by Great Chu in the Central Plains may change.
"My Great Chu army will withdraw from the Central Plains. After Gong Li took a deep breath, he opened his mouth lightly, this sentence made Haotian breathe a sigh of relief, which seemed to mean that Da Qin would not start a war with Da Chu immediately, at least there would be a long period of peace and quiet, however, Gong Li's next sentence made him a little stunned, and he only heard Gong Li say:
"It's okay to withdraw from the army, but I won't join Great Qin as a minister, and Great Chu won't become a vassal of Great Qin. ”
Haotian didn't expect Gong Li to blatantly break the contract, which was really a bit unexpected for him, and he was silent for a long time before he said:
"A gentleman is hard to chase after a horse, and he swore that day by flying to Xiantai with a high-five, did Emperor Chu forget?"
"Gentleman, I'm not a gentleman, I'm just a little woman, and don't forget your majesty Emperor Qin. Gong Li snorted lightly and said lightly.
This sentence made Haotian speechless for a moment, where did this seem to be said by the Empress of Great Chu, it was clearly like what a girl who was angry said, but Haotian had no way to refute it, and he didn't know how to deal with it for a while, so he could only say helplessly:
"Then, according to Emperor Chu's opinion, could it be that he wants to start a war with my Great Qin?"
At this time, the war with Da Chu is the last thing Haotian wants to see, on the one hand, he and Gong Li can be regarded as friends, on the other hand, they are now the only two empires left in the six states of the Southern Continent, almost integrating all the strength of other empires, once the war starts, it will inevitably be a disaster, and the number of dead and wounded soldiers at that time is probably more than the wars in the previous years combined.
After Gong Li was silent for a moment, she looked up at Haotian and said:
"Three days later, on Feixiantai, you and I will fight, I will tell the world in advance, if I lose, Da Chu will be owned by Da Qin, and there will be no Da Chu in Kyushu from now on, if you lose, Da Chu will live alone in Hanzhou, and Da Qin will not use troops against my Da Chu within a hundred years, so like this, can you agree?"
Haotian didn't expect Gong Li to make such a request, if he won, Daqin would be able to unify Hanzhou without blood, and if he lost, it would be nothing more than letting Dachu exist independently, and it seemed that there was no loss to Daqin, and he had no reason to refuse at all, so after thinking about it carefully, he smiled bitterly:
"I hope that Emperor Chu will stop playing tricks when the time comes. ”
"Hmph!" In response to Haotian, it was Emperor Chu's arrogant cold snort, and then she had already gone into the sky.
