Ximen Lingmei continued: "During the time when the prisoners of war were captured, our Yanhuang tribe was able to provide good wine and meat every day, the daily food was better than our soldiers, and the living place was also very good. As soon as this sentence came out, it almost didn't make those deputies angry, how many materials did the Yanhuang clan seize, what did it matter if the captives were allowed to eat, wouldn't it be that they even had to count the money for this little thing?

Casa St. Goucarus said coldly: "Don't you think this is too much? "Mr. Casa, I think you are mistaken, what we captured belongs to us, that is, those materials already belong to us, so even if we use those materials for the use of prisoners of war, but it must also need to be counted, we didn't calculate too much, more than 200 million people, even if we are 200 million gold coins a day, a total of 53 days have passed since we caught them, we are generous, even if it is 50 days, a total of 10 billion gold coins. ”

All the representatives were speechless, they knew that this 10 billion gold coins really had to be given, if they didn't give it, the Yanhuang clan would not let them go, and now the Yanhuang clan is still raising these prisoners of war, the longer the time passes, it is 200 million gold coins a day, but I am afraid that after a year or two, this number will become more and more unbearable, alas, they are known to the Yanhuang clan, it is simply a vampire-like existence.

After more than half a day of bargaining, the last day, the Temple of Light ransomed all the captured troops at the price of 70 billion gold coins, as for those captured materials, don't think about it, it can be said that the Yanhuang clan has made a fortune this time.

The first day passed like this, and after the two sides publicly announced that the first agreement had been reached, at least, the families of the captured fighters were very happy, and it was an encouragement for both sides to reach the first agreement, which was a good start after all.

The next day, the meeting resumed. Zhang Tieyi said: " Today's topic is about the positioning of the Tianguang Empire, we believe that the Tianguang Empire has become a subject country of my Yanhuang clan, and the Tianguang Empire will no longer obey any orders from the Temple of Light in the future, and at the same time, the Temple of Light must be approved by the Tianguang Empire to preach in the Tianguang Empire, and the existing personnel of the Temple of Light must be sealed by the Tianguang Empire in the shortest possible time, and in the future, the personnel of the Temple of Light will enter the territory of the Tianguang Empire to preach, it depends on whether the Tianguang Empire welcomes it or not。 ”

Xue Lufei * St. Kate said: "Your Excellency Governor Zhang, I think you are mistaken, the Tianguang Empire has always been a subordinate of my Light Temple, and you rashly accepted the betrayal of the Tianguang Empire, this is the break of the contract you said to your patriarch about the thousand-year period, are you still embarrassed to say it?" "Yes, Ms. Kate, I think, you are mistaken, you say that the Tianguang Empire is a subordinate of your Light Temple, so what legal provision do you have that says that the Tianguang Empire is your subordinate?" Zhang Tieyi counterattacked.

Xue Lufei * St. Kate almost didn't get angry to death, yes, although the Temple of Light rules the Nine Empires, however, there has never been any legal provision that stipulates that the Nine Empires are subordinates of the Temple of Light, but it has always been that the coronation of any emperor must go through the Pope of Light, and the Temple of Light controls the beliefs of the white race, which is not the turn of the major empires, but it is indeed a fact that there is no legal provision.

"Your Excellency, although there is no letter of the law, it is a well-known fact on the Western Continent, and you cannot quibble. "I'm sorry, Ms. Kate, I will only believe in the law, the law is just, and I don't care what your conventions and so on, even if your conventions exist, we also admit this, but, legally, the major empires still have their own sovereignty, as a sovereign country, what his monarch wants to do and what he doesn't want to do, it can't tolerate opposition from others, not to mention that you are foreigners, and you have no right to interfere in the internal affairs of other countries. ”

Sheruffy St. Kate sneered: "Yes, Your Excellency the Governor, we are interfering in the internal affairs of other countries, and our subordinates have surrendered to others, so we are also interfering in the internal affairs of other countries? Ms. Kate, don't forget, my father only said that he would not take the initiative to meddle in the affairs of your Western Continent, but now that the Tianguang Empire has abandoned the darkness and turned to the light, and our Yanhuang clan is out of the humanitarian spirit to help the Tianguang Empire get rid of your slavery, is this also a interference in the affairs of your Western Continent? Besides, you should also know that we are passive in this matter, the royal family of the Tianguang Empire is our friend, and we help our friends a favor, which is nothing. ”

She didn't want to dwell on this matter any longer, it was something that was not clear at all, she changed the subject and said: "Your Excellency the Governor, we can admit that the Skylight Empire is a vassal state of the nobles, but is it too much for you to expel the priests of our Temple of Light?" "Admitting that the Tianguang Empire is a subject country of the Yanhuang Clan, they originally just wanted to fight, and if they can fight or not, they also know in their hearts, the fat that was swallowed into the mouth by the Yanhuang Clan was so easy to spit out. They are fighting for the missionary rights of the Temple of Light.

Zhang Tieyi said: "This one is already the third question, then you just think that there is no objection to the second question." "Is it useful to have objections? It is no longer possible for the Yanhuang Clan to retreat from the Tianguang Empire, besides, the Yanhuang Clan's embrace is comfortable and warm, and the Tianguang Empire does not want to break away from the embrace of the Yanhuang Clan, so the second question can only be ignored, just mention it. "Okay, since you have no objections, let's move on to the third topic, about the mission of the Temple of Light in the Skylight Empire. Do you have any comments? "Well, Your Excellency, you don't think you want to oppose our mission. Snowback asked.

Zhang Tieyi said: "Of course I won't object, but since you admit that the Tianguang Empire is already a subject country of my Yanhuang clan, then everything within my Yanhuang clan's subject country must be done in accordance with the rules of my Yanhuang clan, and you should admit this." "There's nothing to say about this, this is someone else's territory, of course someone else has the final say. Xue Lufei *St. Cayage nodded and said, "Okay, let's listen to your rules, but the rules are set by people, and you can't be too domineering." ”

Zhang Tieyi said: "The spread of religion has never been forbidden among our Yanhuang clan, and in addition to cults, of course we also believe that the Temple of Light is not a cult, so of course the Temple of Light has the right to preach. However, our Yanhuang clan has its own rules for managing religion, that is, no religion can be above secular power, and all religions must be under the jurisdiction of the government, which is our bottom line. ”

"What does your Excellency the Governor mean by this?" "I mean, we allow the Temple of Light to preach, and we also allow all people to believe in the God of Light and worship the God of Light as the highest god, I have no opinion on this, but all religious personnel in the Celestial Light Empire must abide by the laws of the Celestial Empire, without exception, and if there are believers who violate the law, they must be punished by the laws of the Celestial Empire, which is the first point. ”

All the representatives of the Temple of Light frowned, there was no legal privilege, which was very deadly, and this kind of preaching would definitely not be as strong as it was then. "What about the second point?" "The second point, the branch of the Temple of Light within the Celestial Light Empire does not accept any orders from the Temple of Light that are unfavorable to the Celestial Empire. This is our bottom line, and there is no room for negotiation. "It's relatively easy for everyone to understand this, and besides, even if there is an unfavorable order, it won't let the Celestial Light Empire know the way, right? So, the Temple of Light accepts this point.

Zhang Tieyi said: "The third point is that all the personnel orders of the branch of the Temple of Light in the Tianguang Empire can only be appointed by the government of the Tianguang Empire, and the Temple of Light has no right to interfere. "No, we will never agree to such conditions, Your Excellency the Governor, how will we operate without personnel orders?" "This is your business, but there is no room for negotiation in this article, for any religion, we are managed in this way, including the religion that my Yanhuang tribe will begin to spread must also abide by such regulations, my Yanhuang tribe does not oppose religion, but no one is allowed to carry out anti-government actions in the name of religion, and all power must be vested in the government. "This one is really too deadly, in this way, the Celestial Light Empire will be able to reduce the influence of the Temple of Light to a minimum, so to speak, in a few decades, will anyone still remember the Temple of Light?

"Well, I'll step back, we don't appoint low-ranking priests, but we must appoint bishops in every province or above," said St. Kate. "Absolutely impossible, not one, religious affairs within the Skylight Empire are not subject to any external influence. Zhang Tieyi said categorically that there is absolutely no room for negotiation on this issue. "Then we don't have to talk about it anymore. "Shelufe St. Kate is also very tough. "Okay, then it's up to you to fight or make peace, and we will accompany you to the end. "Zhang Tieyi is not afraid of threats at all, if you want to fight, just fight.

Since the two sides could no longer talk about this, Sheruffy St. Kate was the first to stand up and say: "Since you are not sincere in talking, then we don't need to talk anymore, let's rest for two days before talking, and I hope that you will be able to make some concessions at that time." "That's fine, but I can reiterate once again that we will never make concessions, and I hope that you will be able to recognize the situation and make concessions that satisfy us." Zhang Tieyi also said-for-tat.

The second day's agenda was over, the third and fourth days were adjourned, and the fifth day was reconvened, this time, the Temple of Light gave in, accepted the third article proposed by Zhang Tieyi, and renounced the appointment of all priests and bishops in the Tianguang Empire. They can't help it. Obviously, it was the representatives of them who had been able to contact the Bright Sacred Mountain through the contact system, and the Bright Temple had also come to the conclusion after a meeting and discussion, in fact, they also knew that the Yanhuang Clan would not make concessions on such a sensitive issue, since the Yanhuang Clan would not let it, then only they would let it, who would make the situation stronger than people?
