Traveling through the infinite wasteland

? "I agreed to the third and fifth items; however, regarding the fifth item, I have said something to the concubines in the harem before. Whoever gives birth to an heir first will be the master of the harem! Princess Zhou has nothing to do at present. This condition I'm sorry to obey, but of course, since you have spoken, I can give her the title of imperial concubine! What do you think?"

"Your Majesty, your conditions seem to be a little harsh!" Zhou Mengde said with some displeasure, "According to what you said, our race has paid so much price, and the final reward is not as good as that of the Queen Mother of Shuofeng Empire. For the Qi family!"

"If this is the case, it will be difficult for the old man to give advice to the Venerable Council of our race!"

At that moment, the two started a heated debate over the specific treatment of the Qi family after the war!

In fact, Articles 1, 3, and 4 are all fine, but Articles 2 and 5 mainly involve too many interests! Why didn't Ye Qingyuan give in, and Zhou Mengde didn't want to let it go easily? So I froze!

When the eight great families founded the country, each of them obtained fiefdoms in ten cosmic regions, which together accounted for half of the entire empire's territory at that time! Later, with the expansion of the empire's territory, each family's fiefdom gradually expanded to twenty universe areas! And continues to the present!

These twenty cosmic areas are the fundamental places of our race. After thousands of years of management, they have become extremely wealthy and blessed places! A considerable part of the family's wealth is hidden here!

It is impossible for outsiders to estimate how rich the entire wealth accumulated by a superb family will be. However, with the help of the information provided by the Clone Commando Organization, Ye Qingyuan already knows what an astonishing number it is. ! Why might it be easy to agree to the Qi family? And it’s all the property of two aristocratic families!

What's more, he still hopes that after taking over the empire and wiping out the power of the family, he will use their family wealth as capital to compete for the hegemony of the Star Sea!

However, regarding the fifth item, since I had spoken up beforehand, if something unexpected happened, this position should be Chen Yan’s! Unless the other women also give birth to children, they are not qualified to compete!

Finally, Zhou Mengde said: "Your Majesty! How about this? I'll let go of the properties of those aristocratic families! However, the area of ​​the universe granted by Your Majesty must be increased to 80, and it must be a prosperous and prosperous place; however, there are Regarding the queen’s place, just agree to it!”

"Su Lili is a direct daughter of her family's race, but if anything unexpected happens, the marriage partner should be the royal family! Because of this, she has been trained as a royal concubine since she was a child. Being your queen, she will not lose the glory of the empire! However, Regarding the issue of heirs, this is not difficult!"

Having said this, he took out a stack of documents and handed them to Ye Qingyuan and said: "This is the information on the unmarried direct line women of the family race. There are more than ten women in total, from five different direct lineages! They are all selected for their talent, character and appearance. As long as you marry them all, get close to them more from now on, sow widely and reap little, and they will naturally blossom and bear fruit!"

Ye Qingyuan was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses and said in disbelief: "Is this your solution? For this reason, you want to give me more than ten women at once? This...don't you think this idea is too ridiculous? ?”

"It's not absurd at all!" He said sternly, "Your Majesty! Your cultivation has reached this level. It is estimated that it will be extremely difficult to give birth to an heir! But your harem is sparsely populated! If this continues, The influence of the political power is fatal! Don’t you know better?”

"Besides, as long as you accept these women, the power of the family race behind them will be used by you. At the high-level meeting of the family race, the voices favoring you will become louder! Isn't it so bad?"

Ye Qingyuan was silent. He really couldn't stand the other side's practice of using women of his own race as bargaining chips to bargain at the negotiation table! Even though you know that this is a common behavior among the upper class!

Of course, he also knew that his point of view would not be recognized by the other party, so he simply didn't bother to argue and just said: "Can you let me think about it for a few days and I will give you an answer then?"

"No problem, Your Majesty!" Zhou Mengde said very understandingly, "You can be cautious and think that I will be waiting for a reply at any time! I hope that the friendship between our race and Your Majesty can continue for a long time!"

With that said, he stood up, bowed, and took his leave. Ye Qingyuan personally sent him out.

Leng Zhuo appeared from behind the screen lightly. Seeing the depressed expression on his face, he smiled softly and said, "My lord, people just discovered today that you are really not suitable for negotiating such a situation!"

"What means do you have?" Ye Qingyuan perked up and asked quickly.

"In my opinion, you gave that old guy a lot!" Leng Zhuo said,

"The titles in the Shuo Feng Empire are not as valuable as those in our Dao Mang Empire! Giving him a duke is enough! However, regarding those items, you agreed too simply, so as to push him further! Isn't it true? Do you understand the principle of paying back the money on the spot if you ask for a high price?"

"Next time, let me come and talk to him! I promise that Your Majesty will not suffer any loss!"

"That's good!" he said happily, "With your help, then I don't have to worry about anything!"

"However!" She looked at the stack of documents on the table, took them over and flipped them over, and said with a sweet smile:

"These girls from the Qi family are pretty good! Since that guy sent it to you, just accept it!"

"What are you talking about!" He hugged her and began to move his hands up and down, and said at the same time: "For these women, I have to sacrifice a lot of empire interests to please the family. Do you think I was kicked in the head by a donkey?"

"Hmph! It's good that you know!"

Almost a day later, the special envoy of the Yun Family's Supreme Venerable Association also arrived, Yun Linjie, whom Ye Qingyuan had met before.

The other side's purpose is the same as Qi's! The requirements are pretty much the same!

"The family is willing to use all resources to help His Majesty plan for the Shuofeng Empire!" She said, "However, the specific conditions are as follows:"

"First, except for Cheng Guiyun's lineage, which can be handed over to His Majesty's disposal, no other direct descendants of the family can be held accountable for their crimes; secondly, the Yun family's people will become the legal royal race of the Daomang Empire and enjoy the rights that members of the royal family deserve. All treatment! Thirdly, make Yun Xun'er the queen. When she gives birth to an heir, she will be the next generation emperor of the empire!"

"Fifth, the imperial race's fiefdom should be expanded three times, and at least three royal dukes should be enthroned. The quotas will be allocated by the Honorable Council! Fifth, an absolute number of vacancies must be reserved for the imperial race in the imperial regiment, cabinet, and parliament. Position……"

There were still a lot of clauses to follow, and Ye Qingyuan was no longer in the mood to listen.

After seeing off the special envoy, he, who had been trying to keep calm, finally broke out: "These self-righteous guys, do they really think that without their help, I can't do anything?"

"I want to see if the empire's legions alone can take care of those bastards!"

Hell Soul Star Sea, Bart Novita Alliance.

In the alliance headquarters located in the Zhongyu Universe area of ​​the alliance capital, in a secret meeting room, the leaders of the five major alliances gathered together again to exchange views on the future of the alliance.

The five bosses sat in silence with gloomy expressions on their faces, and no one had any intention of speaking first! Even Xia Qiying, who has always been resourceful, was speechless!

Just fifteen days ago, the Tiroan Empire's army broke through the Scandon Star Abyss. After that, countless warships of all kinds poured in from the passage. Although the Alliance tried to intercept it at all costs and wanted to block it. Notch, but ultimately failed!

After paying a huge price, the imperial army finally stabilized its position, and the large fleet began to attack the hinterland of the alliance! The coalition forces are retreating steadily, and so far they have lost more than forty areas of the universe!

Moreover, using these days, the empire opened a second safe passage on the Scandon Star Abyss, and more troops were quickly mobilized! The pressure on the coalition forces is increasing!

Emperor Philosis has made a wild statement: Completely destroy the five major power alliances within three months! Kill all the alliance's top leaders if they don't surrender as soon as possible!

The situation facing the alliance is already extremely unfavorable!

Wibert looked at the silent people and sighed bitterly: "Everyone, is it irreversible? Is the inheritance passed down from our ancestors really ruined in our hands alone?"

Devrai coughed and said in a low voice: "Our current troops are not less than them, and even more than them, but just because the guys below are not working together, we are passively controlled everywhere! In this way, we suffer losses all the way. , Losing troops and generals!"

"This battle was so frustrating!"

Baudelaire interjected: "If this continues, the situation in the alliance is really not optimistic! Maybe it's time for us to change some of our past practices and seek foreign aid in an eclectic way!"

"Foreign aid? Who are you planning to find?" Xia Qiying snorted coldly, "Nowadays, the surrounding big countries are having a lively fight! Who has the time to care about our affairs? Even if you are willing to cede territory as a condition, I can’t get any help from them!”

Baudelaire spread his hands helplessly: "Then you have to give it a try! If you feel that it is really not feasible, we will have no choice but to think of a way out!"

If nothing can be done, take your family, collect some property, change your appearance and go to a safe place. From now on, you can remain anonymous and live a low-key life, and you can still maintain peace and prosperity for the rest of your life!

Such a strategy was almost feasible in the past. However, currently, the situation in Xinghai is chaotic, with wars raging almost everywhere! Where is there any safe place?

Xia Qiying said: "Relying on the existing strength, we can temporarily conquer some territories in a planned manner and gradually weaken their fierce fighting power. We can still hold on for almost three months!"

"After three months?" Difolia asked.

"The entire Bad Novita Alliance will fall, and the leaders of the second-rate forces whose psychological bottom line has collapsed will rush to escape from the battlefield or defect to the enemy! And these forces like us, even if they still have the strength to fight, will Killed by those traitorous guys!" She said expressionlessly.

Everyone fell silent again.

Perhaps, the only way out is to think of a way out!

The heavy door slid open to both sides silently, and a maid walked in gently. Feeling the heavy and oppressive atmosphere there, her face paled slightly and she said timidly:

"Dear Lord Wibert, a group of merchant ships has entered the capital planet. Their leader claims to be the special envoy of the Daomang Empire. He wants to meet with you and says he has important matters to discuss!"

"What?" Everyone was horrified.

Of course they know about that young man's recent outstanding performance! Successfully captured the entire Shangyu Galaxy, and the kingdom was upgraded to an empire, with territory covering more than 700 universe areas! For such an achievement, for thousands of years, there are only a handful of people who can compare with it!

However, I heard that not long ago, he had faced off against the coalition forces of the eight major families of the Shuofeng Empire. The two sides were fighting fiercely. How could he still have the time to send someone to visit them?

Wilbur composed himself and ordered: "Invite him in! I will see him alone!"

In any case, it’s not too late to make a decision after hearing what the young emperor has planned!

Not long after, a young man with brown hair and blue eyes was taken to the living room by the maid.

Wibert looked at the other side through the monitoring photon computer for a while, then opened the door and left for a while.

Randall sat calmly in the living room, casually admiring the gorgeous furnishings around him.

A well-built white man came to the door unhurriedly. After looking at him, he took a few steps and extended his hand, with a just-right smile on his face: "Dear envoy, welcome. Come to the Alliance as a guest!”

Randall put down the latte in his hand, stood up and responded politely: "Dear Lord Wibert, I, Randall Patrick, have come to visit you on the order of my Emperor, and would like to discuss some trade matters. Let’s discuss cooperation matters in detail!”

"Is that so? It's easy to say! The Alliance is open to all friends and guests without any problem!" Wibert responded in a formulaic manner.

After shaking hands and greetings, the two sat down again and started talking.

Randall didn't waste any time. After a few words, he got straight to the point: "Dear sir, the recent situation in the alliance should be very pessimistic, right? I don't know what your plans are for the future?"

The smile on Wibert's face faltered, and the atmosphere suddenly turned cold.

"I don't know what your Majesty is guessing? Or, find Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan.com to find out what His Majesty, the Emperor of your country, is guessing." After calming down, Wibert asked calmly.

Randall said straightforwardly: "My Majesty is deeply concerned about the difficulties you have faced recently. That is why he has sent me here to discuss cooperation with you, and is willing to provide you with the help we can!"

Wibert's face changed slightly, and he continued: "Help? I don't know how His Majesty the Emperor plans to help? What kind of rewards do you hope to get from this?"

At this time, he didn't expect that the other party would be willing to help him? Regardless of whether it is true or not, it is almost true, and it is definitely not a free lunch! You must give enough benefits in exchange!

Could it be that the other side still wants some cosmic areas? If that's all, it doesn't seem to matter. The Hell Soul Xinghai territory is large enough, and he will just leave several unruly forces to him!

"Sir, I can understand your mood!" Randall said calmly, "Please take a look at this list first. I believe that after reading it, you will have a new understanding of my Majesty's sincerity!"

As he spoke, he took out a document and handed it to him. (To be continued.)
