Alien King

Chapter 565 Unequal Treaties

Just as the emperor of the Barrow Empire was thinking about it, Tony, the head of the Ministry of Rites and Administration of the Barrow Empire, finally arrived in Dacheng County.And at this time, the seven legions under Ye Tian's command had already left Beiliu City, and rushed all the way towards Pajing City.

It was not easy to find Ye Tian's camp at the junction of Dacheng County and Pajing City.

After the dark elves' investigation and interrogation, it was confirmed that this elegant-looking man was the envoy sent by the emperor of the Barrow Empire, and several night elves led Tony to Ye Tian's tent.

Looking at this equally elegant man, Tony was thinking of a perfect rhetoric.In all fairness, as a Barrow man who had traveled in the Tiangong Empire for a long time, Tony had quite a few friends in Shangjing.Some of these old friends are now high-ranking officials, and they even work in popular departments such as the Ministry of Rites and Administration, the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and the Ministry of Works and Administration. understand.

However, in front of Ye Tian, ​​Tony hit a big nail.

Before Tony opened his mouth, Ye Tian sat on the chair and said directly: "The current emperor of the Barrow Empire abdicates and Baron ascends the throne. This is the condition of the peace talks. Don't need to say anything else, just take my words back. .”

Speaking of this, Ye Tian paused for a while, and continued: "Whether it is the main combat faction, the main peace faction, or the emperor himself, you tell them that if they don't agree to my conditions, the seven armies under my command will be destroyed." Directly invade the city of Patin. At that time, they will not have the qualifications to continue negotiating."

Ye Tian's words choked Tony hard. After thinking about it for a while, Tony still planned to fight for it. Just as he was about to speak, he saw Ye Tian staring at him.

A sad word came out of Ye Tian's mouth.

"If you want to say other nonsense, I'll silence your mouth."

Looking at Ye Tian's serious face, Tony felt that Ye Tian didn't mean to be joking.Swallowing hard, Tony swallowed what he wanted to say along the way.

Standing up and doing a gentlemanly courtesy to Ye Tian, ​​Tony said: "My lord, I will faithfully convey your thoughts to my majesty, please make a decision."

Ye Tian waved his hand and made a "no send" gesture.

Tony walked out of the tent in despair, came to the periphery of the entire military camp, found his own horse, turned on the horse's back, and galloped all the way towards Patin City.

At this time, Ye Tian's Seventh Legion was already at the junction of Dacheng County and Pajing City's jurisdiction, and two hundred miles to the south, the city wall of Pajing City could be seen.

Therefore, Ye Tian is completely confident.All he wanted was for Baron to be enthroned.Once Baron ascended the throne, the entire Barrow Empire would be under Ye Tian's indirect control from now on.

Because Ye Tian's army was already so close to Pajing City, after Tony left the camp, he quickly returned to Pajing City without any rest, and immediately reported Ye Tian's intentions to the emperor.

The current emperor abdicates and Barron ascends the throne.For the emperor, there is naturally nothing new.But for many ministers in the imperial court, it was no less than a bolt from the blue.

No matter whether it is the main combat faction or the main peace faction, no one thought that Ye Tian's condition was to allow Baron to be enthroned.

This Baron had been to the Tiangong Empire once before, but that time, it was to obtain the ninth-level divine beast, the Amethyst Phoenix, so that he could be successfully promoted to become a junior martial artist.

Everyone knew that the reason why Ba Lun failed was Ye Tian.

Ye Tian and Chu Yue prevented Ba Lun and Mo Luozi from ambushing Mu Le, making Ba Lun fall short.From this point of view, Ba Lun should have a great enmity with Ye Tian, ​​so how could he collude with Ye Tian.

Just when everyone couldn't figure it out, the emperor let out a long sigh and said: "Now our empire has nothing to use, and the original dragon army that could have galloped across the Eastern Continent has all been wiped out. Oh, There is nothing that can stop Ye Tian."

Speaking of this, the emperor paused for a moment, and then said in a hoarse voice: "Although Barron is not a descendant of the emperor, he is a member of the royal family and one of the best nobles in the Barrow Empire. It is also considered that Barron succeeds to the throne." The above is reasonable, gentlemen, what do you think?"

The ministers below looked at each other in blank dismay. Those who could sneak into the palace to discuss matters were not fools.Everyone is aware of the current situation in the Barrow Empire.

Ye Tian's words were also very straightforward. If he agreed to his conditions, all officials and ranks would not be adjusted. Everything would remain the same as before, except that the emperor had changed.

But if he didn't agree to his conditions, after the Seven Legions invaded Pajing City, the officials and royal family present would completely lose their qualifications to negotiate with Ye Tian.

Thinking of this, after a short silence, all the ministers began to squint one after another, looking at the emperor on the main stage.

In fairness, the ministers actually don't care who is the emperor.But the emperor himself asked if Ye Tian's conditions were met, and the ministers didn't agree explicitly.

After all, if the ministers recognized this, it would be disrespectful to the current emperor.What will happen to the emperor's heart? Have you, a minister, rebelled a long time ago?

No minister would want to offend His Majesty the Emperor in this way.

Therefore, the emperor asked three times, but none of the ministers below spoke.

The emperor also knew what they were thinking, so he sighed again, and continued: "Since no one has any objections, then let's settle this matter."

Speaking of this, the emperor looked at the Minister of Lizheng again, and then asked: "In the past few days, you can choose an auspicious day to abdicate and ascend the throne together."

After speaking, the emperor suddenly aged a little, stood up silently, and walked towards the side hall.

On the first day of October in the year [-] of Tianyuan, Ye Tian's seven armies successively stationed at the city of Patin.

The officials at all levels in the city, after being reconfirmed with Ye Tian, ​​held a grand enthronement ceremony for Baron.

Compared with Yeka's ascension to the throne in Yeburg, the Barrow Empire's grand ceremony was obviously much simpler, only a few flowers and carpets were arranged slightly, and not even the imperial flag was placed much.

All of this was naturally Barron's own intention.This enthronement, on the whole, was forced by the invaders to change the dynasty, and was not facilitated by the spontaneous support of the nobles and people of the Barrow Empire.This is completely different from Yeka's accession to the throne in Yeburg.

Yeka's ascension to the throne was the result of collective negotiations and negotiations between the nobles and commoners of the entire Eka Empire and Ye Tian.But Barron's accession to the throne, the nobles and commoners of the Barrow Empire saw it in their eyes, but they were not very convinced in their hearts.

Therefore, through the transmission of ideas, Ba Lun also faithfully carried out Ye Tian's ideas.

Low-key, as low-key as possible.

Even, let this enthronement ceremony be filled with an atmosphere of sadness.

The enthronement ceremony and the entry ceremony of the seven armies under Ye Tian's command were basically held at the same time.

Following the phalanx of Shenwu Infantry, Night Elf Corps, Guangwu Corps, Silver Dragon Corps, Angel Corps, Dark Knights and Bright Knights, one by one, they walked into the city of Patin, and the nobles and common people in the city watched with their own eyes. The most powerful armies on the continent are completely presented in front of them, and the shock in their hearts is naturally hard to add.

Especially the ministers of the military and political departments, after seeing the neat and orderly phalanx of the seven armies, their hearts became heavier and heavier.

Regardless of whether it is the peace camp or the war camp, in the hearts of many ministers, they still want to win something more in the negotiations.But looking at the ultra-luxury fantasy lineup of the Seven Legions at this moment, all the ministers realized one thing, this is not a negotiation at all, they came to Patin City to accept the entire Barrow Empire.

If there is no accident, the Barrow Empire has already perished.The next one can only be a Barrow province that is a vassal of the behemoth Tiangong Empire.

Perhaps Ye Tian was magnanimous and allowed Barrow Province to become a vassal state of the Tiangong Empire. If so, Barron might still be named a king.

Becoming an emperor and being able to become a king is still a not-so-satisfactory result.

At this time, many ministers also realized one thing, that is, even if the previous emperor did not abdicate, after Ye Tian entered the city, he would be reduced to the governor of a province.Now that the emperor has abdicated, whether it is face or righteousness, he has saved some.Next, it was Barron who was going to bear this huge humiliation.

After the ceremony, the work of peace talks started immediately.

In a large side hall of the Paro Palace, beside the long negotiating table, Barron sat in turn with senior officials and ministers from both the military and government ministries.

On the other side were Ye Tian, ​​Qing Yun, Man Lei, Suo Ya, Ye Xing and Jin Lie.

After everyone sat down, Ye Tian said directly: "I don't want to talk nonsense anymore. The Barrow Empire directly became a subsidiary state of the Tiangong Empire, and Barron was given the title of King Barrow. From now on, he can no longer be an emperor, but It is the identity of the king."

Speaking of this, Ye Tian paused for a while, and then continued: "I don't want to occupy an inch of Baro's land, and I don't want any of Baro's wealth. Officials at all levels will not make adjustments. It's just that, as a subject country, we must do our best It is an obligation to pay tribute to the capital at the end of each year. I believe it will not be difficult for you to do this."

Hearing Ye Tian's words, many ministers were also deeply moved.This Ye Tian really didn't beat around the bush at all, every sentence, every word, went straight to the point.

Now that everyone has said it all, what else is there to talk about.And since the territory is completed, the wealth is not lost, and the officials have not been dismissed, it is fair to say that the interests of the people are hardly affected in this way. As a minister, what else can we say.

However, the only person who was wronged seemed to be the abdicated emperor.But people can't care too much. After all, almost all the family members of the ministers are in Patin City, and no one wants to put all their eggs in one basket to stand up for the emperor for their own personal interests.

Therefore, after being silent for a long time, all the ministers nodded silently, as they recognized Ye Tian's conditions.Immediately afterwards, Ye Tian waved his hand.

Jin Lie beside him took out two pages of magic paper and spread them out in front of Ye Tian and Ba Lun respectively.

The biggest function of this kind of magic paper is to prevent moisture, dust and corrosion. As long as it is not destroyed by more advanced magic, it is almost impossible to be damaged.

This is the peace agreement between the two countries.

Barron picked up the pen and quickly signed his name on it.Then he handed the pages to the ministers beside him.

The ministers hesitated for a moment, and signed their names one by one.But when some ministers signed their names, they were actually humiliated in their hearts.

This is completely an unequal treaty that humiliates the country. The ministers of the Barrow Empire who signed this unequal treaty will be forever reviled in the long river of history.

After Ye Tian signed his own, he handed it over to Ba Lun to continue signing.After seeing all the ministers signed their names, Ye Tian secretly smiled in his heart, and said in his heart that if you sign this contract of sale, the peace agreement will be formally legally binding.

No matter 100 years or 1000 years, the Barrow Empire can no longer be relied upon.

Without hesitation, unless there is great luck, it is absolutely difficult for the Barrow Empire to stand up under the oppression of the Tiangong Empire.
