Chapter 1335 Spirit King Surrenders
There are countless Qin troops outside.
The imperial guards in the palace gate still looked like they were facing a great enemy, and their faces were ugly ones.
Just when they were at a loss, a male voice finally came from behind: "Get out of the way."
The sound is very dull and a little old.
The imperial guards all looked sideways, and saw that it was the Spirit King, and they all retreated one after another, bowed and bowed their heads.
The Ling King was also dressed in casual clothes today. After leaving the palace gate, he ignored the Qin army around him and walked directly towards Xiao Yuan.
He was followed by Murong Hongye and others. Seeing this, the Qin army was about to take action, but Xiao Yuan raised his hand to stop him.
When the two sides met, the Ling King said concisely: "Brother Qin, can you speak with one step?"
"Of course." Xiao Yuan nodded and stretched out his hand slightly: "Brother Ling Wang, please."
The two began to walk outside the palace walls.
Due to concerns about the safety of the monarch, he followed the masters of the two countries not far behind him, maintaining a certain distance.
This has a very illusion that old friends meet and walk together.
During the walk, the Ling King took the lead and said, "Now, the Ling Kingdom has been defeated, and the success and the king have been defeated. Here, I have nothing to say. Tomorrow, I can announce the world, withdraw from the throne, and announce the surrender of the Ling Kingdom."
Ling Kingdom has now fallen into most territory, but behind the capital, there are still many counties, officials, politics, and gentry systems. More importantly, there are 100,000 border troops. If they receive internal support, it will be a very big hidden danger.
He said this, and Xiao Yuan did not talk too much nonsense and said bluntly: "Brother Ling, please tell me the conditions."
The Ling King also made a clear head: "If the Ling Kingdom surrenders, the Qin King's brother should not kill prisoners, especially the Ling Kingdom royal family clan, their safety should be absolutely guaranteed."
This is a very complicated question. Xiao Yuan avoided the important and said lightly: "If Brother Ling is willing to exchange for peace and stability, it will undoubtedly be a blessing for the people. Qin will naturally not treat you badly, and I will also recognize your identity as King Lingwei."
The Ling King smiled bitterly: "I am old and it doesn't matter if I have a title or a title. However, I still hope that the Qin King can be appointed as the Duke of Lingyang in the form of a royal edict, and will not be replaced by hereditary."
This condition can be too much or too much.
King Ling took the last border army, politics, and gentry as conditions, and surrendered the whole country, which was equivalent to solving all the war problems in the later period. Generally speaking, he should be treated with a certain amount of favor.
If things are accomplished, many problems can be avoided. The highest political system of Lingguo has been surrendered, which means that Lingguo has completely disappeared in the long river of history. Then the people below, whether they are aristocratic officials or other counties that have not been recovered, will become easy.
The excessive thing about it is that he wants a duke when he opens his mouth, and it is hereditary and unsuccessful, that is, he will not replace or abolish it. After Lingyang's death, his eldest son will remain the duke.
The two of them did not stop walking.
Seeing that Xiao Yuan did not speak, Ling Wang said: "The current situation, both Qin and I know that the Ling Kingdom does not have any room for maneuver. However, if the Wang brother wants the world to be stable, it will take a long time, and it will have a great impact on politics, economy, people's livelihood, and even soldiers, horses, money and food. Once this meeting is reached, these problems will no longer exist."
Xiao Yuan smiled and said with a smile: "The war has been fought for so many years. Brother Ling believes that I still care about fighting for this more than one year."
"You and I are both monarchs. For the country, the king knows which one is more important. Besides, this is not an excessive condition, right?" Ling Wang said: "And you and I understand that the duke of Lingyang is just giving some wealth and spending the rest of his life."
"Will Brother Ling think that Chang Zhen and the 100,000 border troops stationed in the East have put down their troops and surrendered to the Qin Dynasty because of the surrender of Ling Kingdom?" Xiao Yuan asked back.
The Spirit King said with confidence: "General Chang Zhen is just waiting for me to have a letter."
Xiao Yuanan frowned.
He was not sure whether Chang Zhen was loyal to the Ling King, but what was certain was that once the Ling Kingdom surrendered, the Eastern Army would lose all supplies and aid, whether it was food, grass, weapons, or political power.
If the Ling Kingdom does not surrender, Xiao Yuan can now pacify the Ling Palace, but he will inevitably face the internal and external troubles of the Ling Realm.
If a short title without any real power is exchanged for peace and stability, if you blindly resort to force and do not seek peace for the Ling King, things will change, which is worth considering for a monarch.
After a little silence, he said, "Marquis."
The three simple words also made the Ling King think for a long time. After a moment, he nodded and agreed: "Okay, just as Brother Wang said. In addition, He Miao, Cheng Ping and others hope that Brother Wang can treat him well, and even if he does not use them, he can still enjoy his old age."
As he said that, he sighed slightly, "These people are all loyal ministers."
He Miao is Ling Xiang. Xiao Yuan did not think too much about these people and said in a plain voice: "Don't worry, Brother Ling, I will carefully consider the gentry of the Ling Kingdom."
"Also, Sili Camp." The Ling King continued to open the conditions.
However, Xiao Yuan raised his hand slightly and interrupted him, saying with a smile: "Brother Ling, you have too many conditions. The Sili Camp belongs to you and you must get the due liquidation in the future. There is no room for negotiation for this."
In essence, Qin has actually wiped out the nations, and this final meeting is more like a political contact.
Xiao Yuan could agree to some conditions for the Spirit King, but it was unquestionable that some issues involved. The Sili Camp department could not exist anymore. Just like the extinction of some powers and the cleaning of power, there was no condition to change.
The Spirit King actually understands this truth, but it is inevitable to mention it.
He sighed, and subconsciously looked back at Murong Hongye not far away, but he did not continue to persevere.
After changing the topic, he continued to walk with Xiao Yuan and talked about other issues.
This meeting is equivalent to determining the demise of the Ling Kingdom.
When Xiao Yuan came back, Shangguan Wenruo and others quickly met and asked respectfully: "Master, I don't know what's going on."
Several strategists couldn't wait.
Xiao Yuan glanced at them, "The King of Ling is preparing to announce his surrender and will order the other counties and officials and gentry, but he has given a primary condition to allow the king to be granted the title of marquis of Lingyang and be replaced by hereditary."
Upon hearing this, Shangguan Wenruo hurriedly said, "This is completely acceptable, the king should agree to a marquis in exchange for peace and stability."
Jia You followed and said, "Yes, king, as long as the Eastern Army is solved and the troubles of the Ling Kingdom are handled well, these will not be a problem in the future."
Xiao Yuan glanced at him.
