The ministers were thinking about arranging Wu Qiong, and the prison guards in Tian looked helpless towards Li Guangsheng who came in again.

Wu Qiong followed Wu Zhi and walked all the way to Tai Chi Hall. This was the bedroom where the emperor rested. Wu Qiong was not too familiar with this place. The bed was almost asleep.

After all, Wu Zhi's exaggerated breasts are very uncomfortable if he doesn't find a good position to sleep at night.

When he entered the hall, Wu Zhi waved his hand and asked everyone, including Shangguan, to go out, leaving Wu Qiong alone.

Although the female Shangguan was a little worried, she did not dare to go against the will of the emperor and soon took her out with her.

In a blink of an eye, only Wu Qiong and Wu Zhi were left in the entire Tai Chi Hall.

Although he had seen such a peerless person in the mirror countless times, Wu Qiong calmed down for the first time and looked at Wu Zhi in front of him face to face, but felt that his heart was rippling. A stone was embarrassing, and the rippling ripples could no longer calm down.

I saw Wu Zhi in front of me, with a crystal-clear appearance as jade, a tree of snow, and a gentle and graceful look. In the 28th year of my life, I was in my prime. My beautiful eyebrows were frowning faintly. On my delicate face, a touch of smoke was lightly gathering, and it was like a fairy who came from the mortal world, stepping on the smoke and dust of the fairy road.

There are no beauty in the future, and it is a beautiful woman who is pleasing to the eye...

Wu Zhi in front of him blinked and asked:

"Since I'm always staring at me, what are you looking at?"

Wu Qiong was talking slutty around her mouth, but looking at Wu Zhi's clear eyes, there was only one sentence left:

"I just want to see you."

Wu Zhi smiled slightly, turned to look at the bronze mirror:

"Don't you look at me every day?"

"It's not a daily basis. I can only see it once every other day. I came to Dazhou and haven't seen it for a few days."

Wu Qiong smiled bitterly, but Wu Zhi asked the key questions:

"How did you come here? Have you found that statue and made a wish?"

"I don't know how to get here either, so I stayed at home and then ran to Dazhou in the next second."

Wu Zhi was also stunned and asked:

"If I touched you now, would you go back?"

"I don't know, do you want to give it a try?"

Wu Zhi shook his head, and there was a little desolation between his eyebrows and eyes:

"It's better to be good. I'm afraid that it's just like last time. I'll just be in the mirror and water. This time you come to Dazhou, so let's accompany me and talk more."

"Okay, this is naturally. I'm here to talk to you."

Wu Qiong smiled and said:

"A few days ago, I've been confused by the marriage, right?"

"Why……"

Wu Zhi sighed and said:

"You also know that I wanted to hand over this matter to you, but I didn't expect you to come to the Great Zhou Dynasty and have not exchanged it with me for several consecutive days."

"Uh, I actually have to deal with it, so I may not be able to resist agreeing to kiss you."

"Wu Qiong, do you think you should have a marriage tribute?"

"To be honest, the conditions given by Goguryeo are very attractive. I really want to change a princess to ten cities in Liaodong."

Wu Qiong followed and continued:

"But, if you have read some history books or been beaten by society a few times, you should know a word."

Wu Zhi asked:

"What's the matter?"

Wu Qiong smiled and said

"My previous teacher taught me that if you don't take advantage, you will be a bastard. If you take advantage, you will realize that you are a fool."

Wu Zhi was stunned, then covered his mouth and laughed, saying:

"Your teacher is very funny, but you are right. Wu Qiong, what is your idea about Goguryeo? Can you get along with your marriage?"

Wu Qiong straightened hiss, said:

"After all, I just knew about this, and I didn't have time to think about it, so I definitely didn't think it thoroughly. What did the court officials say? It shouldn't just say yes, right? Didn't Li Guangsheng write the memorial? What did he write?"

Wu Zhi said quickly:

"The reason Li Guangsheng said is not much different from what the ministers summarized. Goguryeo is willing to send ten cities. Although it is not said that it is malicious, it has no intention to let us calmly take these ten cities."

Wu Zhi then continued:

"The ten cities in Liaodong are all outside the pass, and none of them are important cities. If you want to defend, you need to strengthen the city defense ourselves. However, if you want to strengthen the city defense, it will be a considerable expense. Moreover, during this period, the Huns will not remain indifferent. For me, the Great Zhou, it is not easy to defend these ten cities."

Wu Qiong was stunned and said:

"What else should I think about? I will just refuse directly. If the cost is too high, there is no need to joke about the lives of the soldiers."

Wu Zhi shook his head and said with a smile:

"If I just took the ten cities for nothing and caused trouble with our Great Zhou, I wouldn't have thought about it for so many days. I directly scolded the Goguryeo Prince, who was not sincere. But after discussing with the officials in the court, I found that if Goguryeo was willing to help us defend the city and provide resources nearby, it would not be impossible to take them. Once these ten cities were taken, I could build another line of defense north of the Great Wall of Hebei, and my Great Zhou would have the opportunity to leave Hebei and intervene in Liaodong affairs in the future."

Although Wu Zhi did not get the map, Wu Qiong was not a novice. He quickly understood that although the defense conditions of these ten cities were very poor, their geographical locations were all good. They were originally the hinterland of Goguryeo, but the previous few cities were robbed by the Huns. It was also dangerous for them to take these hinterlands in Liaodong. It would be better to go with the flow and give them to the Great Zhou.

The Great Zhou is currently hiding in Hebei and wants to intervene in Liaodong. The nearest bridgehead is the Great Wall, but the Great Wall is still far from Liaodong after all.

If these ten cities are firmly controlled, it would be like a hand that stretched to the Liaodong halfway. For the Great Zhou, it would be a good opportunity to expand territory in the future!

The ministers also thought so. Although the ministers of the Great Zhou all agreed with marriage, no fool thought that it would be friendly to generations after marriage with Goguryeo.

Goguryeo wanted to use the Great Zhou Dynasty. Why didn’t the ministers of the Great Zhou Dynasty think about using the Great Zhou Dynasty first, and then reversely, so that Goguryeo would surrender?

Wu Qiong nodded. The founding ministers were still good.

It is the prerequisite for all this, that is, you must agree to a marriage.

After all, it’s really a matter of marriage, and it’s all good.

The only disadvantage is that it may be that it is not nice to say it.

Wu Qiong fell into deep thought and became a little embarrassed for a moment.

He wanted to say that he wanted these ten cities and would not be in harmony. He would be replaced by Duke Zheng and would be replaced by Li Guangsheng as a result.

But after thinking about it, I feel that this is inappropriate.

Only when they don’t marry their daughters or their lovers can they both devote themselves to their lives? If this is the case, Wu Zhi and himself dare not use them.

Talk to the emperor about chips? No matter how powerful you are, you have to kill them.

But Wu Qiong really doesn't want to get married, and the reasons Li Guangsheng said were indeed not very convincing.

According to the ministers, even if you cannot defend the ten cities and throw them back to Goguryeo, it is considered a hard work.

But if you don’t work hard, you will probably not have a second chance in decades if you let this opportunity go.

Wu Qiong was worried, and heard Wu Zhi whisper softly:

"Wu Qiong, will you be able to stay by my side one day in the future, instead of when I touch you, you will disappear..."

Wu Qiong was slightly stunned. When he saw the eyes of the beauty in front of him, he said softly and firmly:
Chapter completed!
