Chapter 669 Negotiation

So Qi Ling and Bibi Dong rushed to the Tiandou City Palace. When the people in the palace saw the return of Prince Protector Qi Ling, their faces were filled with unconcealed joy, and someone hurried to inform Xueke.

Everyone in the Heaven Dou Empire knew that the difficulties the empire had encountered recently had threatened the very foundation of the existence of the Heaven Dou Empire. Once the five principalities were torn apart from the Heaven Dou Empire, the Heaven Dou Empire would face the danger of splitting at any time.

At the same time, everyone is more aware of the fact that the one who can solve this problem is not the current Queen Xueke, but the Prince Protector, Qi Ling!

So now after seeing Qi Ling, everyone just thinks that this country is finally saved, and they don't need to worry about it day and night. For a time, everyone even thinks that the crisis has been lifted.

Looking at this situation, Bibi Dong couldn't help shaking her head helplessly. Even though Qi Ling had not appeared for half a year, the situation had not changed at all. Not only did Qi Ling's prestige and status not weaken at all, on the contrary, it became more and more tall.

If this happened in any other country, it would definitely be a disaster, and if the merit is high, the ruler and ministers will turn against each other, and life will be devastated.

But in the Heaven Dou Empire, there is no such disaster at all. Xue Ke has complete trust in Qi Ling, and even if Qi Ling has this intention, she can completely give up the throne to Qi Ling, as long as she can stay with him beside you.

But now that she is the queen of the Heaven Dou Empire, she can't live up to the expectations of the teacher or the people. The Heaven Dou Empire is already lucky enough to be in the hands of Xue Ke.

Seeing Qi Ling again, Xue Ke was naturally very happy. She couldn't help but act like a spoiled brat to Qi Ling. Qi Ling was also very helpless. If anyone saw Xue Ke's appearance, they would not believe that she actually She is the queen who is aloof.

Later, when Xue Ke calmed down, Qi Ling asked her to tell her about the five major duchies. At least she had to know the details of the matter before she could deal with them.

After Xue Ke's narration, Qi Ling knows the ins and outs of the matter, which is basically the same as what Bibi Dong said, and the appetite of these principalities is indeed not small. Before this, they have sent their own messengers to find Xue Ke negotiated.

Their request is that they want more autonomy, and they want the empire to recognize their independent status, and they will still call themselves vassal states in the future, but the connection with the Heaven Dou Empire is naturally almost impossible. .

Xue Ke naturally couldn't accept such a practice, otherwise she would be the sinner who caused the division of the Heaven Dou Empire, and the five major duchies insisted on their own words and did not intend to let go, so this matter has been held down, knowing this the holding of a negotiating meeting.

"Teacher, this is the situation, you say, is it because I am not capable enough to solve this matter?" Xue Ke said sadly.

In front of outsiders, she is a respected queen, and naturally she can't easily show weakness, but in front of Qi Ling, she can be without any scruples, because this is her own teacher.

Qi Ling touched Xue Ke's head and said with a smile: "You have done a good job, but these people are just greedy. Such people always have to pay the price!"

"Leave the rest to me, Xue Ke. When the negotiation comes, my sister and I will accompany you."

With Qi Ling's guarantee, Xue Ke finally felt relieved. After all, no matter how difficult it was, as long as her teacher said there was a way to solve it, it would definitely be solved.

In this way, the date of the negotiation meeting is coming soon, and the place of negotiation is in a city that does not belong to Heaven Dou City and the five major duchies. From a geographical point of view, it can basically be regarded as among all the people.

Qi Ling knew that the reason why these duchies demanded this was because they wanted to create an atmosphere, that is, between them and the Tiandou Empire, there was an equal and evenly matched relationship, not a relationship between subordinate countries.

Qi Ling didn't say anything about this. Together with Xueke and Bibi Dong, they arrived at the meeting site on time, leaving the imperial guards outside, and a few people walked in together.

After walking into the venue, Qi Ling immediately saw that none of the people from the five major duchies came. It was already time for the meeting, but they did not appear. They were undoubtedly trying to disarm Qi Ling and others.

"Damn! These people are going too far! Who do they think they are!" The captain of the Imperial Guard said angrily. For him, the humiliation of the queen and the protector of the country was an insult to himself.

Qi Ling sat on the seat and said slowly: "Don't worry, we are just waiting here to see what these people want to do."

After half an hour, the talents of the five principalities rushed to the scene, and the five principalities arrived together. It was such a coincidence that everyone knew that they did it on purpose.

The Queen of the Heaven Dou Empire, Xueke, was here in person, so naturally the kings of the five major duchies had to be there in person, otherwise, there would be no need for this negotiation to go on.

As soon as the five kings walked in, they immediately apologized to Qi Ling and Xue Ke, saying that they were late because they encountered some trouble on the road, or because they forgot the time and remembered the wrong place, and it was definitely not intentional.

Qi Ling, on the other hand, just slowed down and said to everyone, "You don't need to be too polite, it's human nature. It's understandable, so please sit down first."

Seeing Qi Ling's expression of joy and anger, the five kings couldn't help but sank in their hearts. Sure enough, the person who could decide the fate of the Heaven Dou Empire was this man!

So since he wasn't trying to hide it, as soon as he sat down, he immediately expressed his intentions, and put forward the previous conditions again to completely separate from the Heaven Dou Empire.

Xue Ke couldn't help saying at this time: "This is not good, we can't agree! Don't forget, everyone, you are all from the Heaven Dou Empire. For your own selfish desires, you split your motherland. How can you bear it!"

Among the five kings, a king named Otto said: "Your Majesty, the times have changed. Although we are members of the Heaven Dou Empire, the Heaven Dou Empire can no longer meet our needs!"

"Yes, that's it!" "Our needs are not to continue like this, but to change!" The other kings also echoed.

Naturally, Xue Ke could not agree with such a statement, so she debated with several kings, but no matter what they said, they refused to change their demands.

Even in the end, Otto said with a rogue look: "If this is the case, then let's temporarily stop the negotiation, so that we can have more and more sufficient preparation time!"
