After struggling for a long time, Zhongsun Guge had to lower his posture again, with a begging meaning: "Can you not make any concessions at all?"

There was no anger on his face, only begging, "Although the Song Dynasty helped me more in the past, since the emperor ascended the throne, whether it was the Yuan Dynasty, Dali and Xinsong, our dynasty spared no effort to help the Song Dynasty. Do you really care about these past loves, Emperor Song, have you not even cared about the throne?"

Zhao Dongting was silent, and a look of struggle appeared in his eyes. It seemed that he was feeling compassion.

This made Zhongsun Guge feel a little happy and said, "I can assure you on behalf of the empress that Xixia will still spare no effort to stand beside the Song Dynasty in the future."

"well……"

Zhao Dongting suddenly sighed softly, "Since you have said this, I really don't want to do too ruthlessly. If you ask me to give in, I will make some regression based on the previous relationship between the two countries. In order to make the Song Dynasty no longer worry, it is inevitable that you Xixia will bow to my Song Dynasty and submit to you. But after you give in, I can prevent you Xixia from tribute annual tribute to my Song Dynasty. In addition, Xixia will still be ruled by your empress. I will not interfere in any of your Xixia's internal affairs."

Zhongsun Guge was moved, "You are not asking about the matters in the army?"

Zhao Dongting said: "As long as you don't have any unfair intentions, I will let you Xixia still maintain autonomy. This is my biggest regression."

Upon hearing this, Zhongsun Guge did not dare to deal with it any more.

He also knew in his heart that the Song Emperor could still give such generous conditions under such circumstances, which was indeed the end of benevolence and righteousness.

After all, although he had some relationship with the empress, he was the king of the Song Dynasty. Everything had to be considered for the entire Song Dynasty.

At this moment, Zhongsun Guge bowed deeply to Zhao Dongting, "Then Zhongsun Guge thanked Emperor Song first."

Then he resigned and hurriedly left the imperial study room.

Zhao Dongting smiled in the imperial study room.

From Zhongsun Guge's words and deeds, he could see that Zhongsun Guge was quite satisfied with this condition and no longer had any resistance.

Even he thought so, and then many of the ministers in Xixia who thought so would have thought so.

As long as the Xixia still maintains autonomy, then bowing down and surrendering is just a form. In fact, it has no effect on the Xixia.

Perhaps, the overall situation he and Li Xiushu can end early.

This process is of course much easier than what Zhao Dongting expected at the beginning. It is a great thing for the two countries to not have to face each other.

If the Empress Group chooses to surrender, how to face the four major military departments is another problem.

A few dozen seconds later, Zhao Dongting sat back on the bed and pondered again.

He was hesitating.

In his opinion, it is of course a good thing to let the four military departments continue to confront the empress in Xixia. The ministers in Xixia were worried just by dealing with them.

However, this is destined to arouse Li Xiushu's dissatisfaction and lead to a gap between the two.

“Well…”

After a long time, Zhao Dongting suddenly sighed. He seemed to have made up some idea in his heart.

Just now, Li Zuoxiao's appearance appeared in his mind.

Just treat it as a father paving the way for the child in the future...

In the West Road of Xixializhou.

Longzhou City.

She Tuoba, Tuoba Wu, Wu Ge and others still stationed troops here.

As time passed, they were also a little nervous.

The imperial guards of the Song Dynasty never left Chengdu Prefecture, which made them smell an unknown smell.

She Tuoba and others sent letter missions to Chengdu Prefecture one after another, asking Zhang Guangbao to lead their troops to fight and destroy the Western Xia imperial guards, but Zhang Guangbao always just let them stop moving.

This is certainly not normal.

Now everything is ready. As long as the Song imperial guards in Chengdu prefecture go on an expedition, they can quickly destroy the empress group and include the Xixia in the country.

But Zhang Guangbao just stopped moving and kept them from moving.

She Tuoba and others are all shrewd people, so of course they would wonder if the Song Dynasty took this opportunity to put pressure on the Empress Group.

They even had already guessed Zhao Dongting's intentions.

Although the Song Dynasty had accepted their surrender, it did not mean that the Song Dynasty could not continue to turn war with the Empress into jade.

If this is the case, the situation in Xixia in the future will be unpredictable.

Two days since Zhongsun Guge met Zhao Dongting, She Tuoba, Wu Ge, Sikongshe and Tuoba Wu met in the city government office.

At this time, the magistrate in Longzhou City was under house arrest and controlled by them.

When they met, all these generals looked solemn.

As soon as she sat down, She Tuoba said, "Zhang Guangbao still asked us to hold our troops and not go to war with the Empress's Imperial Army. What do you think the Song State is intended?"

Tuoba Wu said with a heavy expression: "After we surrender, the State of Song has the advantage and can completely destroy the imperial guards but not send troops. I am afraid that they will have a little slack with the Empress Group. I am only worried that they are discussing with the Empress Group now. If the Empress Group is willing to pay some price, maybe... the State of Song and the Empress will turn war into jade. You all know that the Emperor Song had a very good relationship with the Empress in the past. If they reconciled, the Emperor Song would be afraid... If he went back on his word and stood on the Empress side again, then our situation would be difficult to estimate."

Wu Ge and Sikongshe also nodded slightly.

No one cursed Zhao Dongting like a child.

Sometimes there is not much credibility in matters between countries. After all, what is more important is interests.

She Tuoba pinched his fingers and said, "I think so too. Now that we have broken up with the empress, we must divide the difference. The State of Song is sitting in the mountains and watching the tiger fight, and the benefits must be settled. I just hope that they can still stand by and watch. It's okay for us soldiers to destroy Helian City, and the military horses under Qu Rujian's command. What I am worried about is that State of Song will help the empress regardless of the agreement with us, and then we will be attacked from both sides. Not to mention overthrowing the empress, it will be difficult to even withdraw..."

"Then we..."

Tuoba Wu narrowed his eyes slightly, "You can't sit like this and wait for death, right?"

She Tuoba looked at him, "Then what do you think?"

Tuoba Wu said: "With the Song army still swaying, it is better for us to attack Heliancheng and Qu Rujian army first. After all, the fact that we surrender to Song is known to the world. Just wait for the war to begin, everyone will think that we are fighting for Song. At that time, even if Song blames us, it is impossible for the Song Dynasty to get along with the Empress again. They will no longer be able to swing between us and the Empress, and can only help us destroy the Empress."

The rest of the people pondered when they heard this.

She Tuoba said, "But who dares to be sure that Emperor Song cares about the views of the people in the world? What will he care about going against his word?"

"this……"

Tuoba Wu was slightly stunned.

Wu Ge looked at She Tuoba and said, "Brother She Tuo already has a good idea?"

He knew that although She Tuoba had the habit of a man from the martial arts world, his cunning was extremely profound. These words just now were probably just preludes.

When She Tuoba heard his question, he nodded slightly and said, "I do have different opinions from Brother Tuoba."

He looked around everyone, "As Tuoba said, if we send troops to attack Heliancheng and Qu Rujian, then the Song State may not be able to sway left and right, but this may also make Song State completely stand on the Empress's side. If so, we will be defeated. Our major military departments will definitely not be able to bear the result. In my opinion, it is better to retreat and seek stability now than their military forces. It is already a fact that we surrender to Song. Since Song State has not started a war for a long time, we can lead our army back to the major military departments first on the grounds of insufficient food and grass. At that time, no matter whether the empress is fighting or harmonious, we can wait for the opportunity to reorganize. Advance can help Song State destroy the empress, retreat, and stick to their respective territories and help each other, so as not to be eaten by the empress."

He said quietly: "Even if Emperor Song turns war with the empress into jade, he will never let his Song army go to the territory of Xixia to help the empress's imperial guards?"

Everyone in the hall was moved when they heard this, and some people's eyes shone brightly.

Although the Song State was strong, there were also countries such as the Yuan Dynasty, Yue Li Dynasty and other countries around it. They fought for years and were unlikely to send troops to Xia to help the empress.
