    Going all the way east, the carriage is faster.  After entering June, Li Hongzhong had already left Hulao Pass and continued southward.  However, Li Hongzhong had not gone far, about thirty miles from Hulao Pass, when he encountered the army led by Wang Qi.

    Wang Qi¡¯s army has moved north, not far from Hulao Pass.

    Li Hongzhong brought Li Yannian forward to report that Li Yannian was left behind, while Li Hongzhong was brought to Wang Qi.  He looked at Wang Qi who was sitting on the horse, bowed and said: "Li Hongzhong, the envoy of the Great Zhou Dynasty, pays homage to the King of Qi."

    Wang Qixiao said: "Shang Shuling, last time the emperor sent Jiang Jiuge to mediate, hoping to make me stop the war. Unfortunately, he was disabled by me. Now I am sending you here, could it be that you are here to mediate and stop the war?  . When the minister comes, aren¡¯t you afraid that I will kill you?¡±

    Li Hongzhong is an old man after all.

    He has experienced several emperors in his life and has seen great storms.  What Wang Qi said just now had no impact on Li Hongzhong at all.

    Li Hongzhong looked calm and said slowly: "King Qi, I am here this time on your majesty's order to ask for peace from the king of Qi. As long as the king of Qi ceases the war, the Great Zhou Dynasty will recognize the status of Qi and allow the king of Qi to proclaim himself emperor."  The territories of Wei and Chu occupied by Qi State were also included in Qi State. From then on, the two countries coexisted peacefully and did not invade each other."

    Wang Qi said: "Shang Shuling, are you trying to entertain me? Zhao Qian just wants to coexist peacefully with his mouth."

    Li Hongzhong said: "I, the Zhou Dynasty, can send the princess to get married."

    Wang Qi said: "I don't care about this. What can the so-called marriage bring to me? Shangshu Ling, do you think I am in need of women? If it is true that I am in need of women, Qi State has many."

    Li Hongzhong felt helpless.

    Are marriage and lack of women equivalent?

    Li Hongzhong knew that Wang Qi had done this deliberately, and he patiently said: "King Qi, there is a difference in making a marriage. I, Da Zhou, are willing to make a marriage, which means that Da Zhou respects the state of Qi and allows the state of Qi to take the dominant position."

    Wang Qidao: "I don't care about calling myself a minister, it has no substantive meaning."

    Li Hongzhong said: "King Qi, it has been hundreds of years since the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and it still has considerable influence among the people of the world. On this occasion, if King Qi really destroys the Great Zhou Dynasty, there will be countless scholars in the world.  Will boycott Qi."

    "This is not good for the country."

    "Comparatively speaking, it would be better for Qi to keep Dazhou. In the long run, the King of Qi will temporarily keep Dazhou, and slowly and subtly change the people, so that they will recognize Qi."

    "It is actually a better decision to win the big week in the future."

    Li Hongzhong looked as usual and said: "King Qi, this is an old man's opinion. I wonder what King Qi thinks?"

    Wang Qi shook his head and said: "Shang Shuling's words are nothing more than to keep Da Zhou alive. The problem is that keeping Da Zhou will only cause more trouble for me. If Da Zhou is destroyed, as you said, there will be  some problems."

    "But compared to these small problems, I think it is most appropriate to destroy Dazhou once and for all. The long-term pain is not as good as the short-term pain. After Dazhou is destroyed, even if there are problems, it is not something to be afraid of."

    "If there are problems to be solved, then who in the world will remember the Great Zhou in five, ten, or twenty years? What's more, the people of the world have been suffering from the Great Zhou for a long time. If not, the people under this king will be like this  Support this king?"

    "Shang Shuling, you are an old minister of the Great Zhou Dynasty, you should see it clearly. In my opinion, it is a pity for you to stay in the Great Zhou Dynasty. It is better for Shangshu Ling to join our Qi Kingdom and serve my king."

    Wang Qi smiled and said: "What does the minister's decree mean?"

    Li Hongzhong said: "I have always been a minister of Zhou Dynasty, how can I betray Zhou Dynasty?"

    After a pause, Li Hongzhong continued: "King Qi, what conditions do you need before you are willing to divide the territory and temporarily withdraw your troops?"

    Wang Qi said flatly: "It is impossible to withdraw the troops. In this battle, it is better to use the remaining brave men to pursue the poor bandits, rush to Chang'an in one go, and completely destroy the Zhou Dynasty. The world will be unified from now on!"

    There is a strong sense of confidence in Wang Qi¡¯s words.  He has gained an absolute advantage. Now that Zixia Mountain has surrendered, Da Zhou has no power left.

    Under this premise, it is impossible for him to withdraw his troops.

    Withdrawing troops is something only a fool would do.

    Li Hongzhong suddenly had no choice. Wang Qi's attitude was so firm that he did not give any room for relaxation.  So much so that he was completely unable to persuade.  If Wang Qi is greedy for profit and is willing to give Da Zhou a chance, Li Hongzhong still has the opportunity to persuade him.

    Nowadays, it is impossible to do it.

    Li Hongzhong ShenAfter a while, seeing that Wang Qi had no longer thought about peace talks, he cupped his hands and said: "Now that King Qi has made up his mind, I will return to Chang'an immediately and report to His Majesty."

    Wang Qi said: "Shang Shuling, it's time for you to make a choice. Because of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the building will collapse."

    Li Hongzhong said: "Thank you, King Qi, for reminding me."

    He didn¡¯t stay any longer, got up and left.  Li Hongzhong returned to the front of the team. When Li Yannian saw Li Hongzhong back, he quickly said: "Grandpa, how is the situation?"

    Li Hongzhong said: "Wang Qi does not accept the peace proposal."

    Li Yannian's eyes flashed and he said: "Grandpa, if you leave this matter to your grandson, your grandson will not accept peace. Qi has destroyed Chu and Wei, and the situation is complete, how can he accept peace?  ?No one wants this!"

    Li Hongzhong said: "Let's go back to Chang'an."

    Li Yannian said: "My grandson will not go back."

    Li Hongzhong said: "What, are you planning to establish a relationship with Wang Qi in advance?"

    Li Yannian said: "No."

    Li Hongzhong said: "What are you going to do?"

    Li Yannian said: "My grandfather failed to seek peace this time, and maybe the little emperor will be angry with you. So now, my grandson wants to make up for it, and further implement what his grandfather said. Now, we are going all out to run for the Great Zhou Dynasty and be a great leader."  Be a loyal minister and establish the reputation of the Li family.¡±

    "This time, my grandson went directly to see Zhenbei Hou Wang Zongxi. The soldiers and horses on this road were in Yanzhou and were also heading to the Sili area. Once my grandson saw Zhenbei Hou Wang Zongxi, he lobbied Zhenbei Hou to persuade the king.  strange."

    "Of course, my grandson thinks this is actually very difficult, even impossible."

    "After all, according to the information obtained, Zhenbeihou obeyed Wang Qi's words. However, with this step, my grandfather can return to the court and have business affairs."

    Li Yannian said: "Unless the emperor asks, he has no hope at all."

    Li Hongzhong's eyes lit up and he said: "This is a good suggestion. If you are young and have good physical strength, go and come back quickly."

    "yes!"

    Li Yannian got on his horse and left quickly.

    Li Hongzhong took a carriage and ordered to return. After all, Zhou Dynasty could no longer stop Wang Qi's troops.  The fall of the Great Zhou Dynasty was already an established fact. Even he could predict that once he returned to the court and the news of Wang Qi's rejection of the Great Zhou Dynasty's peace proposal came out, countless people in the whole court and the public would be panicked and start to contact each other privately.  Wang Qi.

    This is human nature.

    Li Hongzhong can't control so much. When a disaster comes, he can only sweep the snow away from home.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
