We have fought to the Arctic Circle, and you want me to inherit the throne?

Wen Zaiyin was stunned by what Li Che said, but he quickly adjusted himself.

He raised his head and looked at Li Che carefully, thinking secretly in his heart.

This Prince Feng was even younger than he had imagined, with a handsome face and an indescribable noble temperament.

Judging from the way he speaks and acts, although he is domineering, he also has a kind of majesty that looks down on the world.

After all, he is the prince of Daqing, and his power is even greater than that of Your Majesty.

Wen Zaiyin made a decision quickly with his years of experience and ability to judge people.

People like Li Che will definitely respond to soft tactics and not hard ones.

Simply using legal means to condemn will only have a counterproductive effect. It is better to seek peace in an open and honest manner.

After Wen Zaiyin figured it out, he bowed deeply and said softly:

"Your Highness, please allow me to report that although Feng State and Goryeo are neighbors, there are no major disputes."

"Although there was conflict at the beginning of the year, it has been properly resolved. My king even sent you a generous gift."

"The Feng Kingdom's expedition is truly unwarranted. It would be better for the two countries to cease fighting and make peace. My king is willing to cede the land occupied by the Feng Kingdom as a gesture of friendship."

Hearing this, Li Che looked up at Wen Zaiyin in surprise.

This old man is in his fifties or sixties, but he is quite flexible.

As the prime minister of a country, he should not have to undertake such a dangerous diplomatic mission.

Even if he took Liujing, he would have to appease the people and nobles of Goryeo and would not make things too difficult for him. At least he would have no problem living out his days in peace.

But he was still able to do so much for the country, even at the cost of bowing down, and Li Che still admired him a little.

Even a small country like yours has its own unparalleled heroes.

Li Che has always respected those who sacrificed their lives for justice, and his tone couldn't help but soften:

"Lord Wen, it's not that I'm unreasonable. My envoy from Fengguo died in your Goryeo."

Wen Zaiyin looked bitter. Don’t you know how the envoy died?

He didn't come here on a diplomatic mission, he came here to seek death!

"Your Highness is quite right. This is Goryeo's fault."

Li Che nodded and continued, "As for occupying your land, it was won by the soldiers of the Fengtian Army who sacrificed their lives and shed their blood. It is my land."

"You're taking my own things as an apology to me. Isn't that a bit unreasonable?"

Wen Zaiyin slowly closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

He had heard that the Central Plains dynasty was a country of etiquette and that everything was based on reason.

But I never expected that this young prince from Daqing was even more unreasonable than the barbarians!

"Your Highness, what exactly do you want us to do in exchange for your troops to withdraw?" Wen Zaiyin asked.

Li Che grinned and said, "It's simple. Let Li Weiyou surrender and the Fengtian Army take over the defense of Liujing City. We can avoid a war today."

"Then I will issue a decree to the entire nation that Goryeo will become part of Feng State and be under the control of Feng Palace."

"Goryeo cannot retain its troops. The Fengtian Army will ensure the safety of the people of Goryeo!"

"Ministers from Goryeo may serve in Fengguo. At the same time, I will also send officials to take over Goryeo's political affairs. All laws and policies must be based on Fengguo's."

Wen Zaiyin's face changed drastically when he heard this: "If that's the case, is there still a country called Goryeo in this world? Your Highness, are you going to destroy my ancestral temple and take away my breakfast?!"

Li Che nodded: "That's right, otherwise what do you think I am here for!"

Wen Zaiyin slowly closed his eyes, feeling sad.

Jackal! This King Feng is an insatiable jackal!

He didn't care about the magnanimity of a great country at all, and his mind was only thinking about wiping out Goryeo.

If such a hero were born in Goryeo, he would surely be a great ruler.

But being born in Daqing became a danger to Goryeo.

"Since Your Highness has no intention of peace, I will not say much and will take my leave." Wen Zaiyin bowed and was about to turn around and leave.

"Wait!" Li Che suddenly spoke.

Wen Zaiyin paused and said calmly, "Does the King want to kill me?"

Li Che shook his head: "Fengguo is not your small country of Goryeo, ignorant of etiquette. The principle of not killing envoys when the two armies are fighting is still understood by the king."

Wen Zai Yin snorted coldly: "Then why did you call for the foreign minister?"

Li Che looked at the stubborn old man with admiration on his face:

"From my observations, you are a loyal and hardworking minister. Goryeo will be destroyed in an instant. Why don't you join my kingdom? I will treat you with high office and generous salary."

Wen Zaiyin looked surprised and asked, "Is the King willing to employ a vassal minister?"

Li Che said, "What are you talking about? There are over a dozen vassal generals from the Mohe and Khitan tribes in our Fengtian army. They all hold military power. Why can't you serve in the Fengtian court?"

When Wen Zaiyin heard this, he looked at Li Che with a more complicated look.

He has means, abilities, ambition, and even the ability to tolerate others.

Why was such a wise ruler born in Daqing?

He shook his head and said, "Thank you, Prince Feng, for your kindness. However, I am a minister of Goryeo. How could I betray my master and surrender?"

"This is absolutely unacceptable. If Your Highness is still angry, you can take Wen's head."

Hearing Wen Zaiyin's reply, Li Che's smile grew wider.

I was too anxious. If Wen Zaiyin really bowed down to me, I wouldn't be so optimistic about him.

"Forget it. I won't force you. Please go, Mr. Wen."

Li Che waved his hand, his expression becoming serious. "When you leave, tell Li Weiyou to wash his neck clean. I will go get it myself tomorrow morning."

Wen Zaiyin paused, bowed again, and turned away.

Looking at Wen Zaiyin's thin back, Li Che whispered, "Qiu Bai."

"My subordinate is here."

"Notify the entire army, light a fire and cook, and when the sun sets, the entire army will begin the siege."

Qiu Bai was surprised and asked, "Didn't you just say that we would attack the city tomorrow morning?"

"You're so stupid!" Li Che patted his head. "If you tell the truth about something like this, won't the other party be prepared?"
