Chapter 567 Time Limit
Chu Zhiyuan was determined.
My main goal was achieved.
But this is just my goal.
The goal of the Dajing mission this time is to negotiate an armistice between the two Koreas.
But in his opinion, the most important thing is the agreement between the three dynasties to jointly suppress the evil sect.
As for the armistice treaty between the two Koreas, it is not that important.
Because the key to armistice or non-truce is not the treaty, but the situation of each other.
Once the situation calls for war, the treaty will be torn up.
This time the negotiations are mainly about trade and mutual market.
This is almost impossible to achieve.
Li Hongzhao was still unable to suppress the army and would not agree to these terms.
The most advantageous place to establish a trade market on the border is the military.
It is said that those who are close to the water get the moon first, those who are close to the mountains get the mountains, and those who are close to the sea get the sea.
With this trade market, the border army can get too many benefits, both tangible and intangible.
Once a trade market is formed, in addition to the military, there will be too many rich and powerful people to benefit from it.
These are the vested interests.
This would create a huge impediment to another war.
Interests are the basis of political attitudes. The ministers in the DPRK and China will oppose war for the interests of their respective representatives.
If the frontier army benefits the most, then the frontier army will try to avoid war.
When Li Hongzhao could not suppress the border troops, agreeing to carry out mutual trade would further make control more difficult.
So he didn't hold out hope.
Li Hongzhao sat behind the Long Case and said lazily: "Where should we start?"
"Destroy the main altar." Chu Zhiyuan said: "Cut off their source of power and slowly take care of the rest."
"The main altar is not that easy to suppress, right?" Li Hongzhao said: "Not to mention whether you can find it or not, can you break it if you find it?"
Chu Zhiyuan said: "If there is help from the military and martial arts masters, it will not be difficult."
Use formations to fight against methods.
With the military formation facing the heaven and earth formation, and with the assistance of martial arts masters, it is not that difficult to break the formation.
"In the army..." Li Hongzhao muttered.
Chu Zhiyuan smiled.
Li Hongzhao snorted: "Why are you laughing?"
Chu Zhiyuan said: "It's best to use the Cloud Riding Cavalry, but if it doesn't work, let our Thunder Spear Formation come over to help."
"Just step on the cloud cavalry!" Li Hongzhao said: "How many are needed?"
"At least a thousand."
"A thousand cloud-riding cavalry..." Li Hongzhao pondered and nodded slowly: "Okay!"
Chu Zhiyuan said: "Have your guards ever practiced formations?"
Li Hongzhao shook his head and said: "Their formations are far inferior to the Cloud Riders."
Chu Zhiyuan said: "Then let's go to the Cloud-Taking Iron Cavalry. I will lead them first, and others will handle the rest of the negotiations."
"There's nothing else to talk about." Li Hongzhao said lazily: "There's no need to talk more."
Chu Zhiyuan said: "Both dynasties will benefit if they establish markets on the border."
Li Hongzhao glanced at him sideways, his phoenix eyes shining brightly.
Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said: "What about the secret place? Don't you want to exchange secret places with each other?"
"No need." Li Hongzhao snorted: "Your secret place is not good either."
"Then let's talk about exchanging prisoners."
"This can be discussed." Li Hongzhao said.
This is still her greatest achievement during her mission to Da Jing, and it is also the key to gaining support from some members of the military.
But now, by exchanging prisoners to gain the support of some lower-level sergeants, and then gaining the support of some of the upper-level officers through tactics, it is almost possible to leverage the army.
The army is not monolithic, and there are many factions, so it is difficult to withstand her every push and pull.
Everyone in the field shut their mouths and listened to the two men setting the general trend in a few words.
Having said this, Li Hongzhao stood up: "I'm a little tired, so I won't stay with you any longer. Just have a drink and enjoy it."
She left lightly.
Everyone stood up and clasped their fists in greeting.
When she left, they all breathed a sigh of relief. Although Li Hongzhao is a woman, her aura is amazing. When she sits here, everyone is under pressure.
As soon as she left, the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became lively.
Chu Zhiyuan also said goodbye and left.
As soon as he walked out of Chengtian Hall, Wen Chengen came to greet him from outside.
Chu Zhiyuan didn't say much and followed him forward.
He glanced up at the night sky.
A bright moon hung high in the night sky, and the stars were dim.
A huge sword lay across the void, looming, with dense white lines converging on the sword, and the patterns on the sword's body flowing faintly.
Strings of lanterns hung under the eaves of the palace, and strings of lanterns hung in mid-air, illuminating the surrounding area brightly without any blind spots.
Chu Zhiyuan came to a side hall.

Directly north of the side hall is an Arhat bed, surrounded by warm and soft furnishings.
Li Hongzhao was lying on the Arhat bed.
The wide lake green robe gently clings to the graceful body, embroidered with flower patterns, and filled with luxury.
She held her head with one hand and looked lazily at Chu Zhiyuan who walked in.
A palace maid presented an embroidered pier, and Chu Zhiyuan sat down, clasping his fists and smiling: "Congratulations."
“Where does joy come from?”
"As your cultivation level improves, will your mastery of the Emperor's Sword become stronger?"
"You are also diligent." Li Hongzhao hummed: "I really have you."
Once you reach the Grand Master level, it is almost difficult to improve.
Almost everyone stayed on the first floor, and he quickly reached the second floor.
Now it seems that the second floor cannot stop him, so he is about to enter the third floor.
He was still one step ahead of himself.
Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said: "Without the Emperor's Sword, I will not be your opponent after all."
Li Hongzhao said: "I can see now why you want to destroy the evil sect so much."
Chu Zhiyuan smiled at her.
Li Hongzhao said: "Because killing the demons of the evil sect is beneficial to your cultivation, right?"
Chu Zhiyuan touched his palms and praised.
Li Hongzhao hummed: "When you reach the Grand Master, you can't kill people at will, but it doesn't matter if you kill monsters, so the monsters in this world become your training aids. Isn't this the method of the Ziyang Sutra?"
Chu Zhiyuan said: "If I kill one more, my thoughts will be clearer. If my thoughts are clearer, my spirit will be stronger, and my practice will naturally speed up."
"That's all?" Li Hongzhao was dubious.
She felt that Chu Zhiyuan advanced so quickly after becoming a Grand Master, it must be because of the evil sect.
However, the evil sect's mentality also stagnated after entering the Grand Master.
Therefore, he should not be borrowing from the evil sect's mental method, but should be a kind of realm-breaking magic technique that is based on killing.
"What else can be done?" Chu Zhiyuan had to admire her sensitivity.
Without the help of these evil sect demons, the Glazed Sword Sutra would not have been able to reach this level.
Killing monsters in secret places is also a way, but it is far inferior to the evil sect monsters.
He felt that if he killed all the evil sects and demons in the world, he should be able to practice the Glazed Sword Sutra to perfection.
I just don’t know if I will be truly immortal and live forever.
Chu Zhiyuan immediately said: "There is no obstacle to your Phoenix bloodline cultivation. You have been able to improve your cultivation level at an extremely fast speed. Are you preparing to ascend in the future?"
Li Hongzhao frowned slightly and stared at him.
Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said: "I understand, you are indeed ready to ascend. According to your current speed of improvement, it shouldn't take too long, right?"
"If I don't straighten things out, the Emperor's Sword won't be able to help me ascend."
"Only by completely controlling the Emperor's Sword can one break through the void and soar away. But if one wants to completely control the Emperor's Sword, one must calm one's psychology."
"...That's right." Li Hongzhao said.
He has great understanding, and it is not surprising that he can deduce these things.
Chu Zhiyuan said: "It takes enough time to be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people and to completely establish prestige...For you, ten years is enough."
He then smiled and said: "It seems that you will be promoted after being the emperor for ten years."
Li Hongzhao smiled proudly: "This time, I'm going to be one step ahead of you."
