Originally, the negotiations should have been held in the palace or the general's palace, but due to the battle between Rody and Baqi, both the palace and the general's palace became fans, so the negotiations between the two countries had to be held hastily in a large mansion.
The negotiation process was extremely simple, and the Kingdom of Sauron got everything they wanted without any hassle. What they coveted in the Patriot Country was nothing more than Ironwood's resources. As for this land and who would serve as shogun, it was of no importance to them.
The negotiation lasted only an hour before an agreement was reached. The Sauron Kingdom would send an army of 30,000 people to help Kikuran Yukinari rebuild the dwarf kingdom, and help him naturally ascend to the position of shogun. In fact, this is not difficult at all. Goyu Senbei has been defeated by Roland's army at this moment, Oda Nobunaga's elite cavalry has been almost wiped out by Myosu alone, the imperial palace has long been destroyed, and now the dwarf country is qualified to serve as shogun. Julan Xingcheng is the only one left. What the Sauron Kingdom needs to help him is just to help him establish his prestige. This is really easy to handle. As long as there is military power in hand, how many people will oppose it without opening their eyes? What's more, there is also the support of the powerful Kingdom of Sauron.
The other, of course, is the most important management rights of Tiemu. Everyone’s purpose is nothing but this. However, as the Kingdom of Sauron, it is impossible to ask Kikukawa to give ironwood to itself for free as a victorious nation. It is also inconvenient for the so-called national institutions to operate these ironwoods as businessmen. It just so happened that Nidis was mediating in the middle, and finally reached an agreement for Nidis to play the role of the businessman. Signed an agreement with the shogunate to obtain the management rights of Ironwood in the Dwarven Kingdom. At the same time, Nidis also signed an agreement with the Sauron Kingdom to ensure that the purchased ironwood would be supplied to the Sauron Kingdom as a priority.
Regarding the agreement signed by Julan Yukinari and the Sauron Kingdom, it actually mainly contains these two contents. However, Nidis, as the initiator and drafter of the agreement, added some details about military power in order to make the agreement look more grand. , human rights, environmental protection, maritime shipping and biological protection, etc., a total of 21 articles were signed. These twenty-one clauses, in the research of historians of the descendants of the dwarf country, are called the "Twenty-One Treaties", an unequal treaty with strong humiliation that humiliates the country.
Later generations had an ambiguous attitude towards this treaty. Some people believe that these treaties greatly restricted the development of the Dwarf Kingdom, making the Dwarf Kingdom almost an industrial blank within thirty years after the war. But another group of people believe that although these treaties have seriously harmed the interests of the dwarf country, if it were not for the wise and powerful General Juran Xingcheng and his right-hand assistants Blood Fox Nidis, Sinful Star Sith, and Lone Wolf Roddy, Even if your country is not destroyed by the Kingdom of Sauron, you must at least pay tribute to the Kingdom of Sauron with all your annual income. In that case, the Dwarf Kingdom will be equivalent to a vassal state of the Kingdom of Sauron. These people believe that Juran Yukinari, as the most famous shogun in history, has greatly given the dwarf country a breathing space for its future revival. Such merits can never be erased by generations to come!
The dispute between the two groups over Julan Xingcheng lasted for more than three hundred years. The debate continued after the dwarf kingdom formed a parliament. The two groups often fought in the parliament, which made the dwarf emperor very nervous.
After the treaty was signed, King Sauron stopped talking to Julan Xingcheng and walked to the backyard to talk to Rody.
At this time, Fengcheng Hideyoshi came back just in time and dedicated Oda Nobunaga's head to Kikuran Yukinari, so that Kokukawa, who had just officially ascended the position of shogun, breathed his last breath of relief. There will no longer be any strong enemy who will oppose him as a general.
Hideyoshi Kazuki naturally boasted about his pursuit of Oda Nobunaga and said that he was extremely heroic. Although Xiao Kikukawa is a bit of a fool, he also knows in his heart that Fengcheng Hideyoshi and Ben cannot be Oda Nobunaga's opponents, and the true situation needs to be investigated. But no matter what, Fengcheng Hideyoshi brought back Oda Nobunaga's head, and at the moment when Kokukawa was employing people, he was too lazy to track down the real situation. Hideyoshi Fengcheng just wanted to get a more respected position, and under Kokukawa, he couldn't find anyone who could hold a high position. Now that there is a Kazuki Hideyoshi who can bring back Oda Nobunaga's head, it is logical for Kokukawa to promote him and convince the public.
Soon after, the royal family was reestablished. Kokukawa randomly found a family among the dwarfs who had some blood relationship with the royal family, and established a new emperor. The shogunate was reopened randomly, and it goes without saying that Kikukawa Yukinari became the shogun. , Fengcheng Hideyoshi also replaced Wuyu Senbei's position and became a new generation of Senbei, responsible for guarding the southern border of the dwarf country.
King Sauron and the special envoy Rody naturally had a lot to say. Although Rody was extremely dissatisfied with King Sauron's original actions, he was no longer the young man who didn't know the importance. Now Rody could clearly distinguish the priorities of things, so he never mentioned that he was deceived by King Sauron, but continued to talk to him about the exchange of warships and prisoners of war.
After a few days of rest, under the grateful farewell of Kikukawa Yukinari, King Sauron took most of the Roland army, together with Princess Ruolan, Rody and others, and returned to the Roland continent via the sea.
After arriving at Roland Continent, they were given a grand welcome by the people of King Sauron. The news of their great victory in the dwarf country has already spread to the country, and the whole people are excited. Seeing such a scene, Rody had another worry in his heart. His worry came from the temple, the Kara who incarnated as Prometheus. Rody had a hunch that Kara would soon start a crazy counterattack. Moreover, the divine record, which is enough to fight against the temple, is still missing.
Roddy still doesn't know that Kara has obtained the divine book. If he knew, he would be even more worried.
Moreover, Roddy has not been able to regain his domain power until now. With his strength greatly reduced, his confidence has naturally dropped a lot. He couldn't predict what would happen to him in the future. We can only hope that after returning to the Bright Continent, the old skeleton Andy can find a way to help him restore his domain power.
After staying in Sauron Kingdom for a few days, Seth seemed to be much more honest. He kept silent and never asked Miaosi to help him wash off the makeup on his face. It seems that he has given up on this. Basically, by this time, Seth had despaired of escaping again, and had already planned to follow Rody back to the Bright Continent to be the damn Tulip Duke.
After a few days, Roddy's body had recovered to the maximum extent. Moreover, the agreement with the Kingdom of Sauron has been reached, and the negotiated warship King Sauron is basically ready. Rody plans to end his mission as a special envoy and return to the Bright Continent.
Roddy was actually very anxious. After so many days, his domain power had not been restored, which made him unbearable. He just hoped to return to the Bright Continent as soon as possible and let old Andy find a way to restore his power.
King Sauron is still pretending to stay, and he is still very afraid of the strength of Roddy, the fake Tulip Duke. He always hopes to keep Rody in the Roland continent. Even if he cannot rebel and help him, at least he will not become his enemy. However, Rody had already decided to leave. Seeing this, King Sauron had no choice but to let him go.
Before leaving, it was decided that King Sauron would host a farewell banquet for Rody in the palace.
Just before the farewell banquet began, in a side hall of the palace, the king sat there with a stern expression, seemingly playing with a sharp dagger with a strange shape in his hand.
"It seems that this plan in the dwarf country has actually failed." The king sighed, with a hint of melancholy in his eyes.
"Your Majesty." Sith stood there, his face covered with wrinkles, his hands huddled in his sleeves, and he said slowly: "The divine record has been destroyed now. Although this matter will not do us any good, but this The plan for the dwarf country finally got ironwood resources... "
The king shook his head. Ironwood's resources were only second in his heart. He suddenly glanced at the old magician: "You said that Rody has lost the powerful strength in the field. Can you confirm this?"
Sis pondered for a moment and said: "I still can't calm down when I think about the situation that day... I only fully felt the power of the strong men in the field that day. After a fierce battle with Baqi, Roddy It seems that he has really lost his fighting ability. Now he is just a high-level warrior! I originally thought that he would recover, but that day on the battlefield in Kawato City, the dwarf country, he had exposed his weakness... It is certain that he The strength seems to have been lost inexplicably!"
The king narrowed his eyes. He seemed to be thinking, and the eyes in his eyes gradually turned cold: "What if..." His tone gradually became lower: "If, I want to leave Roddy in Roland Continent, are you sure?"
The expression on Old Sith's face seemed to stiffen, and his voice became a little dry: "Have you really decided?"
"It's very simple!" The king said lightly: "We and the Empire of Light cannot be friends forever! After hundreds of thousands of prisoners were returned, our cooperation has lost its practical significance... Now they also have some in their hands. Roland’s warships and their powerful Thunder God’s Whip are not scary. What’s scary is that such a powerful army is in the hands of a commander with a legendary and mythical experience!”
Having said this, the king smiled: "You also got the news about the internal strife in the Bright Empire palace. Their emperor now relies heavily on Duke Tulip. If Duke Tulip died in Roland Continent... then this powerful man in the south of us The enemy will be in chaos for at least a few years..."
The old Sith sighed: "Such a situation is of course very beneficial to us... But I still have two doubts."
"Well, first, is it the fear of Roddy's strength?" The king smiled.
The old Sith's expression was very serious: "You have never seen the scene that day! This guy Roddy seems to be a monster who can create miracles! I can't even imagine what else he can't do... " Seemingly remembering the crazy look that Roddy had after he became possessed that day, the astonishing terrifying power that instantly blew up the entire sacred mountain, the old magician felt an almost desperate fear in his heart: "Your Majesty, I admit the fear in my heart. But I guarantee that if you were there that day, you would be more scared than me!"
The king put away his smile: "My respected Sith Master, I didn't mean to laugh at you. I also believe that your doubts are reasonable... but..." He smiled bitterly, "At present, this is our only opportunity!”
His eyes gradually became colder: "According to our information, Tulip Duke Roddy seems to have no descendants. If he dies... then for hundreds of years, as the sharp sword hanging over the heads of the Roland people, Tulip family, its threat can be eradicated in one fell swoop!”
The old Sith seemed to sigh, looked at the king intently, and suddenly said: "Your Majesty, we are taking a risk!"
The king shook his head and said, "Tell me your second doubt."
The old Sith said helplessly: "It's the reaction of the Empire of Light!" After a pause. The old magician's eyebrows furrowed tightly: "Our biggest threat now comes from the temple! I guess you don't want that when we are fighting against the temple, a thunder god's whip suddenly comes from behind and kills across the sea with vengeful fury. Right? Now they have more than 800 Roland warships!"
The king narrowed his eyes, smiled faintly, and suddenly murmured: "Thunder God's Whip with vengeance and anger... This is indeed a terrifying force... But..."
He opened his eyes and looked directly at the old magician: "What if this power of revenge comes not to us, but to the temple?"
"what do you mean?"
The king seemed to be smiling: "Find a way to reveal the return whereabouts of this special envoy of the Light Empire to the right minister. I think the temple will get the news soon. I think... I will face assassination again this time, and there will be no realm. Can the powerful Tulip Duke still deal with the dragon paladin?" At this point, the king sighed. He looked at the old magician seriously: "I know you seem to have a little affection for Roddy now, but I hope you remember that our mission is to revive the ancient empire! You and I are both involuntarily! This matter still needs to be done You take action... After all, there is a black veil saint beside Rody!"
The old magician sighed and said nothing more. He just looked at the king deeply. The atmosphere in the hall seems a bit depressing...
Almost at the same time, in the Right Prime Minister's Mansion in the royal capital, the same atmosphere was enveloped in a dark room with flickering candlelight.
The old right minister's palm, which looked like a withered old tree trunk, was slowly stroking the edge of the chair. He seemed to be hesitating on how to speak.
"Just say it." The tall figure standing below is officially Princess Ruolan of Sauron Kingdom. At this moment, there was a disdainful smile on her bloated face.
The right minister finally made up his mind and looked at Princess Ruolan seriously - this was definitely not the way a father would look at his daughter!
"I need you to help me do one more thing!" The old right minister's voice was equally serious.
Ruolan said coldly: "If I'm right, this should be the last one!"
"Yes!" The old right minister said slowly: "After doing this, your family's promise has been fulfilled! You don't have to continue to obey my orders!" After a pause. The old right minister said slowly: "If you succeed in this matter, I can guarantee that the temple will order the withdrawal of the hundreds of years of ban on your family!"
"In other words, I don't have to continue playing your daughter?" Ruolan sneered: "And I don't have to continue to be the princess?"
The old right minister sighed: "I know you are still worried about the fact that I asked you to marry the king, but you also know that the king and I just got the throne, and I also need to further grasp the power and marry the king. Getting married is an inevitable necessity!”
"It's nothing." Ruolan's tone was very calm: "I owe you, and you have the right to ask me to do anything for you! But you'd better remember your words! This is the last thing! "
The old right minister just nodded, and then said seriously: "The king will definitely not let Rody return to Roland Continent so easily! I think he must have seen through that I am from the temple, so he will definitely notify me and leak the news. Come out and use the power of the temple to assassinate the special envoy of the Empire of Light... You... "
"You want me to kill that guy named Rody?" Ruolan frowned.
"No." The right minister said lightly: "Of course someone will do this. The temple will send their paladins... The king will probably also secretly send the old Sith. Under the joint attack of the paladins and the old magician, they have already It is impossible to stop Rody who has lost his power, even with the black veil around! "
"Then what exactly do you want me to do?"
The old right minister slowly said word by word: "Ensure Rody's safety! Then, if there is a chance... kill the old magician Sith! Or kill the paladin sent by the temple... Of the two sides, you kill Any one is fine!”
Ruolan didn't show a trace of surprise on her face. She seemed to be carefree and concerned about any request of the old right minister: "Is this the request? Then I agree to you!"
After a pause, Ruolan glanced at the old right minister with a meaningful look: "Kill the old magician or paladin... I'm a little curious now. Aren't you from the temple? Why do you seem so strange?" You are not wholeheartedly protecting the interests of the temple!”
The old right minister sneered: "What's wrong? Are you not sure about this mission? Or are you not confident in dealing with the old magician or a paladin?"
"Joke!" Ruolan stared and said, "Who am I! I am Ruolan. Tian!! I am the descendant of the strongest paladin in history on the continent of Roland!!"
"I believe in your strength! After all, you are the only person in the Roland continent who has the strength of a paladin except for those in the temple." The right minister smiled and said: "I will definitely keep my promise. After this matter is over, you will be free! You no longer need to take orders from me... and I will ask the temple to order to restore your family's rights!"
