Lin Xitang shook his head slightly in the face of these people's urging, and said, "I still want to talk about His Majesty the Emperor's attitude first."

When Li Junwei heard this, his face changed slightly. What he was most worried about was this. Although the emperor meant that he would not fight if he could, Li Junwei still wanted to do everything possible to preserve his nephew's throne and authority. There is one variable in it that he could not control, that is Li Zhaogui's attitude.

Lee Zhaogui did not necessarily insist on his throne. The decree left by Li Jundu back then was that Lee Zhaoyi was the emperor, but Lee Zhaoyi supported him. There was no evidence that this was arranged in advance. Lee Zhaogui has always been grateful for this.

On the other hand, Lee Zhaogui is a family politician who regards family affection above everything else. Now he is a slaughter. Will Lee Zhaogui surrender because of this?

Li Junwei also remembered one thing, that is, in the past two years, his correspondence and telegram exchanges with Li Zhaogui have been greatly hindered from domestic reforms and have never been effective. Li Zhaogui has expressed many feelings of loss between the lines, which will also affect his persistence in the throne.

"This doesn't seem to be very important, so let's talk about the conditions first." Li Junwei interrupted Lin Xitang.

But this time, Li Junhua did not let his younger brother do it, but said, "Mr. Lin, continue to say, I want to know what Zhaogui thinks."

Lin Xitang nodded and said, "His Majesty the Emperor also hopes that this matter can be resolved successfully. He does not want the Li family to be contaminated with the blood of his brothers and the same clan, nor does he want the two countries to fall into war. Before coming, the Auxiliary King took me to see His Majesty the Emperor and gave us two hourly conversations, absolutely private space. In that conversation, His Majesty the Emperor said that the resolution of this Agra incident should be based on peace between the two countries and harmony between the Li family, and he did not stick to his throne.

Moreover, His Majesty the Emperor also said that he could accept the regent to become the emperor of the empire, which was the last wish of the late emperor. He also said that he originally thought that when the reform was completed and all the difficult things were completed, he would follow His Majesty the Supreme Emperor and abdicate in his descendants. Among the descendants, no one was found with amazing talents, so... he also considered abdicate in the regent.

Also, the Hindustan Empire followed the empire and secretly established a crown prince. When the Auxiliary King controlled the palace and took out the imperial edict from the Fengxian Temple, it stated that the Auxiliary King was the successor. In fact, His Majesty the Emperor and the Auxiliary King had already made a decision a few years ago."

Lee Zhaogui was the emperor of the Hindustan Empire, but he had no sons, only three daughters. In his early years, he was mainly in a state of restlessness in the harem, and gave birth to four sons, all of whom were harmed by evil women. Later, because of a border conflict, Lee Zhaogui was injured in the lower yin and was unable to have children since then.

And these things are unknown to the imperial royal family, but they only know that Li Zhaogui has not yet made any statement because of emotional factors.

Li Junwei was shocked when he heard this news, because he always thought that his nephew Zhaogui had everything he knew about him. If he had known this, Li Junwei might have other choices, longer-term and more stable choices, such as choosing Li Zhaoyi's child to Shenjing to train, or raising another son to compete for the position of the Emperor of the Hindustan Empire.

No matter which one you choose, it will happen ten or even twenty years later, and it will definitely not cause the current situation.

Li Junwei felt incredible about this because he overestimated the importance of power in Li Zhaogui's heart. In fact, according to the research of Li Zhaogui by later historians, Li Zhaogui himself had no sense of belonging to the Hindustan Empire. He did not regard himself as an Indian throughout his life. In his personal letters, he showed more than once that he was just a passerby in India.

In order to better rule the Hindustan Empire, his father, Li Jundu, converted to the Tianfang Sect. Of course, in name only, his life was his life by gnawing garlic and fragrant pork ribs. But Li Zhaogui did not. He respected any religion, but did not convert to any religion.

During the reign of Li Jundu, Persian, which was popular in the upper layer of the northern subcontinent, once became the official language. Some Chinese second generations could not speak Chinese anymore, but under Li Zhaogui's insistence, Chinese once again occupied a dominant position. He could not be an official in the center.

After becoming emperor, Li Junduo began to build his tomb in Agra, but Li Zhaogui did not. He never thought that he would live in India from beginning to end.

In just ten years of rule, Li Zhaogui left the reputation of being the most benevolent in the history of later generations of India, but these later generations had to admit that the heart of this benevolent monarch never belonged to India.

If you look back, this is not difficult to understand. The most important thing in Li Zhaogui's life is from ten to eighteen years old. Prince Yu Li Junwei actually played the role of his father. Although his calmness and grandeur are very similar to Li Junhua, his temperament and values ​​are more like his third uncle.

He does not regard India as his private property, but as a career and does his best.

Lin Xitang even mentioned that Li Zhaogui was completely disappointed because of the failure of the reform. He thought about what attitude or way to return to the empire after he abdicated to Li Zhaoyi or a son of Li Zhaoyi. He even specially found a legal expert to ask whether returning to the empire with such an identity is in line with the law of the empire.

This was once a very important thing for Li Zhaogui. Li Zhaogui concluded that in order to avoid embarrassment in all aspects, the Supreme Emperor or the Imperial Emperor should be the decision to adopt himself to the lineage of King Yu, so that the royal family and the British lineage would not be embarrassing.

The one who is most satisfied with Lee Zhaogui's indifferent attitude is undoubtedly Li Junhua. He has always had a headache about how to convince his younger brother Lee Junwei. Now the best reason has come. Lee Zhaogui himself doesn't stick to the throne, so why should you persist?

"What are the conditions for Li Zhaoyi?" After understanding Li Zhaogui's attitude, Li Junwei asked on his own initiative.

Lin Xitang said: "The Auxiliary Emperor hopes that His Majesty the Emperor will abdicate and become the Supreme Emperor of the Hindustan Empire, and will no longer participate in the government affairs. The Auxiliary Emperor guarantees the safety and wealth of His Majesty and his family. In addition, it is to maintain the friendly relations and economic and trade exchanges between the two countries as advocated by His Majesty.

From then on, the empire did not interfere in the politics of the Hindustan Empire in any name. His Highness Yu planned to take the regent. The regent is the blood of King Yu, and the coup incident was all considered as never to have happened."

"Hmph, what a big tone. Did he think that if the empire took Zhaogui and let him offer it? I would not consider the conditions that he had no sincerity." Li Junwei immediately expressed his attitude.

The emperor and King Cheng looked at each other, and King Cheng Lin Junhong asked: "Does His Majesty the Indian Emperor know these conditions?"

"Yes, Your Majesty knows it." Lin Xitang said.

Li Junhua coughed lightly and asked coldly: "Mr. Lin won't tell me, Zhao Gui agrees to these conditions."

"No, His Majesty the Emperor does not fully agree. He hopes that the world does not know what happened, hopes to maintain peace and friendship between the two countries, and is willing to abdicate to the auxiliary ruler, but he insists on freedom. In our secret talks, His Majesty the Emperor hopes that the empire will fight for freedom for him."

"Freedom? What is freedom? What is freedom that Zhao Gui talks about?" Lee Mingxun spoke.

Lin Xitang said: "His Majesty the Emperor said that at least leave India, it is best to return to Shenjing."

"Your Majesty, what do you say?" Li Junwei looked at the emperor and his attitude became much tougher.

This is a great disrespect, but Li Junhua doesn't care. In his opinion, at this time, King Yu was willing to hand over the decision-making power to himself instead of letting his father make the decision. This is the greatest respect, respect for his brother and respect for the emperor.

Li Junhua said: "I feel that Zhaogui's request is legitimate. He is willing to give up the throne for peace and sacrifice enough. If we cannot even win the most basic security and freedom for him, then this negotiation will be meaningless.

If Li Zhaoyi was unwilling to give freedom, but forced his brother and mother who were extremely tolerant of him as bargaining chips, such a ruthless and unrighteous person must be attacked.

Therefore, freedom is the most basic condition, and Li Zhaoyi must meet it. If it is not satisfied, it is war.”

"Freedom, or war." Lin Xitang asked.

After gaining common recognition from the Supreme Emperor and the Emperor, Lin Xitang said: "Okay, that is the empress' attitude to the auxiliary king truthfully."

"Okay, then thank you Lord Lin, I will arrange someone to contact him as soon as possible." Although Lin Xitang is someone who Li Mingxun believes in, his current identity has nothing to do with the empire, and Li Junhua cannot believe Lin Xitang's position.

Lin Xitang was not surprised. After kowtowing to Li Mingxun, he chose to retreat.

After only the clan relatives were left, Lee Myung-hoon asked: "Do you think Zhao Yi would agree to give Zhao Kyu freedom?"

"The relationship between Zhaogui and Zhaoyi brothers is quite good. Zhaogui has always taken good care of him. Third brother, this time it's your time." Li Hai, who has been silent, said.

Li Junwei had no intention of clearing his responsibilities. He generously admitted it and said, "Whether Zhao Gui is given freedom cannot be decided by Zhao Yi. This is our basic condition."

"Yes, prepare for the war. Perhaps only the sound of cannons can make Zhao Yi wake up. I am going to mobilize the Western and Far Krainian regions and send additional marines to the South Ocean. Junhong led his army to resist the Mughal dynasty in Goa that year. If the war begins this time, Junhong will come to preside over the military affairs." Li Junhua said.

Lin Junhong nodded. He knew what the emperor meant, and he could never let King Yu take charge of this matter.

But Li Junwei said: "Slow down, slow down, this matter needs to be discussed again."

Lin Junhong smiled and said, "Third brother, you won't believe me, right?"

Li Junwei waved his hand: "No, I won't preside over this matter, I want to avoid suspicion. However, I think it's not yet enough to start a war. We still have bargaining chips, that is Zhao Yi's bloodline."

"How to say it?" Li Junhua, who had always advocated not to start a war, became interested.

Li Junwei said: "Zhao Gui has no son, but his eldest brother is not only Zhao Gui and Zhao Huo, but he has a total of six sons, including Zhao Yi. The other three, although not as powerful as Zhao Yi, have also been granted the title of king and serve as the head of ten thousand households of 70,000 households, and are also a political force."

Li Zhaogui still takes good care of his brothers. He raised his younger brothers and rewarded his adult brothers. He did a good job, but an unsuccessful reform offended all these brothers and made them all stand on Li Zhaoyi's side.

But the problem is that these people stand on Li Zhaoyi's side because Li Zhaoyi is in charge of military power and is the son of the late emperor. Except for Li Zhaoyi, no one can confront Emperor Li Zhaogui. But the problem is that if there is a problem with Li Zhaoyi's bloodline, these three people may not have their own thoughts.

"They are also your nephews. Do you want to provoke internal struggles between brothers?" Li Mingxun beat the crutch.

He has always known that his youngest son is very rational, but the problem is that he is so rational that he is almost ruthless that he has no affection for his son Li Zhaoyi, so he naturally has no feelings for those nephews whom he has almost never met.

But Li Mingxun is not such a person, especially as he is older, he no longer has any political concerns. Instead, he is more concerned about his descendants. Perhaps he also wants to leave a family with lush branches and a better reputation in a hundred years, let alone, he is full of guilt towards his eldest son.

"Yes, the third brother, if Zhao Yi really felt the threat, he might have reacted. For him, those three brothers are not as threatened as Zhao Gui. If you do this, you can push Zhao Gui into the abyss." Lin Junhong reminded.

Li Junwei said: "It's just a bargaining chip, a transaction. In this matter, we cannot lose the initiative, and we need someone to play a black face, and I can do this role."

Li Junhua raised his hand and said, "Stop, stop! We can tell Li Zhaoyi this consideration obscurely, but we cannot do things like contacting the three nephews. Only Li Zhaoyi is stubborn and unwilling to give Zhaogui freedom, or if both sides are trapped in a war, then do these things again.

The most important thing is that the third brother and Li Zhaoyi are your son. Do you have anything or letters to prove it?”

"This...no. It is precisely because my elder brother has been refusing to give me something like this that I doubt Zhao Yi's position."

"If not, then this card is difficult to play. Since that's the case, then just follow what I said, just inform it in a vague way, and even imply that we have evidence to prove that this card can only be fooled by holding it in your hands, and it will be completely exposed when played out." Li Junhua said seriously, obviously Li Junwei can no longer hold on.
