"Zhou Yi, although our army is trapped in a lonely city, it is not easy to bully! If you plan to persuade us to surrender, I advise you to put away that little bit of caution, and we will defend the empire to the death! What can the dark army do, it's a big deal to fight to the death, I'd rather be broken than broken!" Jia Nan saw that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince bowed his head and was silent, and his heart suddenly became anxious, for fear that she would be weak for a while, and agreed to Zhou Yi's unreasonable demand, so he drew his big sword and roared angrily at Zhou Yi.

I didn't pay you a military salary, did I! Why did you still help me! Zhou Yi listened to Jia Nan's roar, and almost didn't laugh.

Originally, Yu Wu was swayed by her own words, and if you talk about the Dark Army again, didn't you remind her again!

If she reminds herself, it may instead arouse Yu Wu's rebellious thoughts, making her have no face to agree. Now that they have reminded them of it, she will not be wary, worried that the person who speaks has ulterior motives, and she will not get tired of this matter in her heart. And she could just get off the donkey, and the exit agreed to come down. In this way, the royal family is much greater, and there is no need to bear the infamy of surrendering on the knee and losing the country cowardly.

The royal family is not only concerned about its own power, but out of fear that the people of the empire will continue to fight with the Qinling Empire because of the face of the royal family, and lead the country to be wiped out when facing the dark army!

Sure enough, just as Jia Nan was about to teach Zhou Yi a lesson, Yu Wu raised his head, first scolded him, and then looked at Zhou Yi and said, "What does King Wucheng plan to do with the elven clansmen? As you just said, I can't accept it!"

When this sentence came out, everyone below was suddenly stunned, and a decadent feeling suddenly rose.

Everyone can hear that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is planning to accept Zhou Yi's persuasion and prepare to go to the country to cut the emperor's title.

However, Her Majesty the Empress has not yet arrived, how can she, the crown prince, decide such a big event!

"Your Highness, this matter is not possible, you must wait for Her Majesty the Empress Xià to decide!" Although Jia Nan accepted the command of Prince Hicks, and was arranged by Prince Hicks to obey the orders of the crown prince. But he also has an identity, he is one of the heads of the Royal Knights, and in his duties, the object of his allegiance is still the Empress Xià. Therefore, when she heard that she rashly agreed to such a serious matter, she couldn't help it anymore, and retorted bluntly, no longer caring about the identity of Yu Wu.

"Grand Knight, this matter will be revealed to your Majesty, you don't have to worry about it! With the kindness of Her Majesty the Empress, she will never exchange the safety of the people of the empire for the throne. A hint of displeasure flashed in Yu Wu's eyes, although she is not the empress, but she is also the crown prince, but the next empress, of course, if this matter is implemented, she will be the next queen. Moreover, he is still the supreme commander of the current landing army. was bumped into by her subordinates, it's no wonder she can be happy.

Fortunately, the starting point of Jia Nan is to maintain the dignity and interests of the royal family, so she did not criticize Jia Nan too much.

"Okay! I have long heard that Her Majesty the Empress of the Kunya Elf Empire cherishes the people of the empire very much, and Her Royal Highness the Crown Prince has the legacy of Her Majesty the Empress! As long as you promise to remove the emperor's position and remove the imperial title, everything else is easy to say! If Your Highness has any conditions, even if it is proposed, as long as the king can make the decision to agree, he can promise at this time. "When it comes to this, basically the overall situation has been decided, Zhou Yi's heart has fallen to the ground, and he has retreated a lot between his words, and he is no longer aggressive.

"Well, the Kunya Elven Empire can remove the imperial title, the empress can become a queen, and we can even reduce the army! However, I also have a few conditions. Yu Wu nodded, now that she had made a decision, she would no longer think about useless things, nor would she challenge the bottom limit of the Qinling Empire. She was born in a royal family, and she was trained as a crown prince since she was a child, and she was clear about political affairs. Thinking about it from another perspective, if it were in the Kunya Empire, it would not allow another empire to appear on the land of the empire. There are no two days in the sky, there are no two monarchs in the country, how can Emperor Qinling endure another emperor on the territory of the empire.

Therefore, what she has to pay attention to and fight for now is the vital interests of the elven clan after the empire is annexed to the Qinling Empire.

Zhou Yi raised his hand and motioned for her to continue.

"First, the Qinling Empire must treat the elves equally, and all the rights enjoyed by the Qinling human Chinese must also be enjoyed by our elven race. For example, King Wucheng just said that he entered the cultural relics academy to study, and after graduation, he entered the imperial court as an official. Of course, there are also restrictions on enlistment in the army and promotion in the army;

Second, the elven royal family did not enter Luojing City, and was placed in Nanyue City to establish a royal palace, and its status must be higher than that of other foreign kings in the empire. The elven army can be abolished, but the establishment of the Royal Knights must be retained, and the military expenses are borne by the Qinling Empire. Baiyue County and Vientiane County were given to the elves to settle down, and naturally the government affairs of the two counties were handed over to the elven royal family, and the local officials were appointed and dismissed by the elven royal family;

Third, the imperial court needs to reward the elf royal family with 20 million gold coins every year to provide the royal family's expenses, and the titles of the elf empire are reserved except for the royal title, and the imperial court needs to recognize these titles and give the elf nobles corresponding treatment according to the imperial aristocratic standards;

Fourth, the elves have freedom of belief, and the imperial court must recognize the transcendent status of the temple of the goddess of life, and the imperial court will fund the construction of the temple of the goddess in each city of Baiyue County and Vientiane County, and the priests of the temple, the knights of the cathar, and the magician group will be retained as the defense force of the temple of the goddess;

Fifth, officers at all levels of the elven army must be properly arranged by the Qinling Empire, and if they intend to continue to serve in the army, they must be placed in the active army of the empire by the Qinling Empire and awarded a military position that matches their original position;

Sixth, due to the forced relocation of the elves and heavy losses, the imperial court must allocate sufficient supplies to ensure that the elves can resume their normal lives, and at the same time exempt the elven civilians from taxes for ten years;

............”

Although I heard that she was willing to belong, I was happy, so letting her put forward the conditions first did not mean that she was unprincipled and let her ask for a price. Therefore, the more he listened to her conditions, the smile on Zhou Yi's face became more and more restrained, and even when he heard the end, his face was already so cold that he was dripping.

The elven generals and nobles present below began to have smiles on their faces, except for Jia Nan, who was still dissatisfied, and everyone else couldn't hold back the joy in their hearts.

After His Royal Highness the Crown Prince finished saying this, they already had a sudden realization in their hearts. If the Qinling Empire agreed to these conditions, the Elven Empire would be equivalent to just taking out the false name of the empire and the emperor on the surface in exchange for tangible benefits.

Although the title of empire and emperor is gone, in fact, the elven empire is still an independent country when it becomes the elven kingdom, the royal family is still supreme, the nobility is still noble, the temple is still the temple, and almost all the people of the empire will benefit from it. On the other hand, the people of Qinling, because of these two false names, want to support the entire elven empire.

If that's the case, why don't you agree to join it! Those who don't agree are fools! They don't have to fight, but they can safely take the land of the two counties of the Qinling Empire and countless materials and money, and this kind of business is definitely done! Only a fool like Jia Nan stubbornly maintains that kind of false name, and at this time, they look at Jia Nan's eyes with a little disdain!

Oh, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince really deserves to be the successor of the Empress!

Finally endured and didn't get angry, quietly waiting for Yu Wu to finish the conditions, Zhou Yi took a deep breath, tried to make his tone appear softer, and said: "Your Highness's appetite is too great, the Qinling Empire will never accept such conditions from you!"

Article 1: Without His Royal Highness to say more, this king can promise that since the beginning of the king's reign, all races and nationalities in the empire will be treated equally, whether it is your elf race, or half-elf, half-orc, they are all subjects of the empire, and they are all equal when they join the army, enter school, and become officials.

Article 2 It is impossible for the king to agree that Baiyue County and Vientiane County can be used as the main settlement areas of the elf clan, and local officials can also be elves, but these officials must go to the Wenwu Academy for training, and then be appointed by the imperial court. The elven royal family can be placed in Nanyue City without entering Luojing City, but the Royal Knights are only allowed to keep 3,000 people, and the military expenses are borne by the elven queen herself.

The third change is that the imperial court will take out five million gold coins at one time as a reward for the elven royal family, which will be used to purchase the royal palace and settle in Nanyue City. Here, this king can build His Royal Highness to buy more land, or do business! From today onwards, the nobles who have been canonized before today can be recognized by the imperial court and given corresponding treatment.

Fourth, we can respect your freedom of belief, but no force can transcend the outside world and override the empire, so it is better to advise the Goddess Temple to obey the law. As for the Knights Cathar and the Wizard Order, they must be abolished, and the existing forces will be reorganized by the Imperial Court.

Article 5 is the same, the elven army is uniformly dismantled and reorganized by the imperial court, officers at all levels are selected and appointed, and the dismissed personnel are paid severance pay and resettlement pay by the empire.

Sixth, let the king say so! The elves came across the sea, and it was indeed difficult, and the imperial court would send commissioners to register the elves and provide basic production and living materials according to actual needs. As for tax exemption, it's just one year!

......”

One refutation after another, one amendment after another, all the entries that are the lion's big mouth are directly rejected. I came here to quell the war between the two countries, to buy time to deal with the invasion of the Dark Legion, so as to fully mobilize the various forces within the empire, but I didn't come to be a nurse for the elves.

If it is carried out according to the conditions of the feather dance, it is better to be more simply and directly kill the elves. This is simply to let the Qinling Empire support his elven clan with the strength of the whole country, or to raise a country within a country! He is not a fool, and the elves are not his own illegitimate children, why!

"King Wucheng, such a change, I'm afraid the people of the empire won't accept it!" Yu Wu had already accepted the matter of belonging in his heart, so there was no threat in his words, just a pitiful pleading.

Looking at her pretty face, Zhou Yi's heart moved, and an idea suddenly came to him, but in order not to be too deliberate, he changed his mind and said: "If this king agrees to your conditions, it will really harm your elf clan! Your Highness thinks about it yourself, is your condition too much! If the imperial court agrees to it because of the matter of the dark legion, how will the Chinese gentry and people below, officials and generals at all levels, and even the Holy Academy, the martial arts sect, and other clans that belong to the empire think of the elf clan!" In that case, will you still be able to gain a foothold in the Eastern Continent?"

Yu Wu thought about it, and it was really as he said, if he was forced to really agree, the elven clan would only be greedy for a while, and it would be difficult for him to be hostile to various forces in the Eastern Continent Empire in the future! However, Zhou Yi's revised conditions are a bit harsh. After all, the huge empire is attached, so you have to give some benefits!

Look at everyone here, when you hear Zhou Yi's words, your face is already dripping with yellow water!

"But, in fact, this king also has a Jianyì, if His Royal Highness agrees and gives special treatment to the elf clan, it will be reasonable to go up and down the empire!" Seeing that she was already embarrassed, Zhou Yi directly threw out the bait and waited for her to bite the hook.
