Zhao Rui and Wan Jiaojiao looked at each other and saw two words written on each other's faces: Amazing!
Does His Highness have the ability to predict the future?
Li Chen didn't care what they thought. After saying that he would take them to the Xi Zheng Palace, he said a few words to Zhao Rui to make her feel more at ease, and then he left for the Xi Zheng Palace.
Entering the Xi Zheng Palace through the side door, Li Chen was greeted by the eyes of Zhao Xuanji and others as soon as he entered.
They also saw the blood on Li Chen's body.
Su Zhenting was greatly shocked, while Zhao Xuanji and Wang Tenghuan had gloomy faces.
Especially Zhao Xuanji.
"Your Highness, I have received news that an accident occurred in the place where the Nine Princes of the Liao Kingdom live. There was a large-scale conflict, resulting in several casualties. Among them, General Yelu Qiming of the Liao Kingdom died on the spot. May I ask Your Highness if it is true?"
Zhao Xuanji cupped his hands and asked straight to the point.
After Li Chen sat down calmly, he said calmly: "That's not true."
This denial was beyond Zhao Xuanji's expectation. He then said: "But the source of the information..."
"It's good that Yelu Qiming died. It's good that there were casualties in a large-scale conflict, but this was not an accident."
Li Chen looked at Zhao Xuanji with emotionless eyes and said indifferently: "As envoys of the Liao Kingdom, they should abide by the way of being guests in our capital of Qin, but instead of restraining themselves, they allowed their subordinates to rob civilian girls on the street.
The indiscriminate killing of innocent people has brought me into trouble. As the crown prince of the Great Qin Empire, all the people in the world are the subjects of me and my father, shouldn’t I take care of it?"
Originally, Zhao Xuanji came to ask for help, but Li Chen's rhetorical question caught Zhao Xuanji off guard.
Seeing the stalemate in the situation, Wang Tenghuan quickly said: "But Your Highness, the other party is the prince and general of Liao after all. They represent the dignity of the Liao country. Even if you make mistakes, you should be polite before fighting. Your Highness is so impulsive..."
"Wang Tenghuan, I think you are tired of living like an old man!"
Li Chen slapped his hand on the table, and angrily interrupted Wang Tenghuan's words. He cursed angrily: "What about the people of Liao!? What about the king of Liao? They can insult me and the people of Daqin are two-legged sheep, and they can do whatever they want.
Do you want to ride on my head, Da Qin, and dominate me?"
"I am still the crown prince of Great Qin, so what's wrong with bringing them to justice?"
"People came to your door and scolded you for being eighteen generations of ancestors. They even snatched your wife and daughter and humiliated them in front of you. What else did you tell me to treat you first with courtesy and then with military force!?"
"Okay, I will immediately ask someone to bring all the wives and daughters of your Wang Tenghuan family over and send them to the Liao people for humiliation in front of you. Let's see if you can still be polite before fighting!?"
For a long time, no matter how fierce the conflict was, Li Chen always adhered to the unspoken rules in political situations, at least he never broke his skin.
Even if everyone wants to stab each other to death, they still maintain a sense of dignity in the political game.
But today, Li Chen personally broke this dignity.
Wang Tenghuan was completely dumbfounded by the scolding.
In all his years of living, this was the first time that someone pointed his nose at him and scolded him like this.
His beard was trembling with anger, and only one of his ears was visibly reddened. Wang Tenghuan jumped to his feet and said: "His Highness humiliates an old minister like this, which is insulting to gentleness, and it chills the hearts of all the scholars in the world! Your Highness is not afraid of being misled by thousands of people."
refer to!?"
"Refer to your mother's head!"
Li Chen picked up a half-finger-thick book at hand and threw it at Wang Tenghuan, cursing angrily: "Do you know how enthusiastically the people in the street cheered after I killed Yelu Qiming? They knelt down to give the book
Palace, that is what the people’s hearts and minds want!”
