Chapter 247: Assassination of the Crown PrinceChapter 855 Who Says This Palace Doesn't Dare

Li Chen instructed Wan Jiaojiao to bring over a plate of lychees. Then, he leaned back in his chair, eating the lychees that Wan Jiaojiao had peeled and delivered to his mouth, while nonchalantly saying, "Go on, what's up"

Guargjia Aoqin eyed the glistening, translucent lychees with envy......The people of Jin had never tasted such a southern tropical fruit.

Although Guarjia Aoqin has been working in the capital these years, lychees are not something that just anyone with money can afford. They have to be sent from the tropical south before they go bad, and money alone won't cut it.

He swallowed nervously, Gualjia Aoqin took a moment to compose himself before speaking: “Our Jin Dynasty, just like the Great Qin, are victims of harassment by the Liao Kingdom. Therefore, we hope that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Great Qin will understand that the Liao Kingdom is absolutely ambitious and treacherous. They should not be allied with.”

Li Chen listened impassively, then slowly spat the lychee pit into Wan Jiaojiao's delicate palm. He raised his head and said coldly: "Now it's the Liao Kingdom offering a lot of benefits to get this palace to cooperate with them. This palace is just asking you, the Jin Kingdom, do you want to die If you don't want to die, what good can you offer to impress this palace, instead of telling this palace how to do things"

As soon as these words were spoken, Guarjia Aoqin's face turned rigid.

He increasingly felt how difficult the young Crown Prince of the Qin Empire before him was to deal with.

Taking a deep breath, Gualjia Aoqin knew his status was insufficient, so he didn't even try to argue. He continued, "Please, Crown Prince of Qin, let me finish."

"The Liao kingdom had mustered 600,000 troops; this was a fact that was plain to see. But if they wanted to attack the Jin kingdom, they only had two options. One was to go over mountains and across the entire Tian Shan range. The other was to take the path through Yuemenguan, circling around from within the territory of the Daqin."

“And their six hundred thousand soldiers are now outside the Moonlit Pass, it's clear they chose a better path. But the question is, would the wise and valiant Crown Prince of Qin allow them into the Moonlit Pass, risking them advancing deep into the Central Plains”

Anyone with half a brain could tell that these words are not something Gu Erjia Aoqin would come up with. It must be the handiwork of some brilliant individual in the Jin court.

As for the higher-ups of the Jin Dynasty being able to see through these things, Li Chen wasn't at all surprised.

After all, it was the Jin state that had stood alongside the Qin and Liao states for many years. Even though they were often trampled by the Liao state and even struggled against the weakened Qin state most of the time, the Jin state should not be underestimated.

If a nation can't even see this, it should be destroyed.

In response to Gua'erjia Aoqin's words, Li Chen said cheerfully: “Yes, they indeed hope to use Yueya Pass as a route, but didn't this palace say that from the beginning They want to cooperate with Da Qin. If they don't borrow the pass, what cooperation is there”

"That was the cooperation condition set by Liao Dynasty itself."

"How could the Prince of Qin possibly agree to such a dangerous request"

"Danger"

Li Chen let out a chuckle and said, "Danger and opportunity always go hand in hand. There's nothing in this world that offers huge profits without taking risks."

"Who dares say this palace wouldn't agree The greater you think this palace wouldn't agree, the greater the benefits will be if this palace does." "This palace doesn't like having too many people following."After Siba left, Li Chen glanced at Wan Jiaojiao and said, "Let's go, to the General's Mansion."After a while, the two of them, in civilian...
