This statement almost made Zhao Xuanji so uncomfortable that he was about to spit blood.

I've never seen someone who could bring half a sentence to someone else.

He stared at Yelü Qiming with a cold face, waiting for him to finish speaking.

Yelü Qiming grinned, his eyes full of disdain. "You Qin people are just such weaklings and trash. On our vast grasslands, if someone acted towards me like you did just now, I would have smashed his head to pieces long ago."

"Is this the rest of what Wan Yan Zhai told you to bring" Zhao Xuanji said coldly.

"Hahaha."

Yelü Qiming laughed heartily and said, “Of course not.”

“The chancellor wants me to tell you, if you don't do this, you will lose our partnership. But if you do, the ones who will be harmed are Jin and Qin, and Liao will benefit...”

His stout index finger jabbed at Zhao Xuanji's chest, and Yelu Qiming continued, "And you too!"

"A unified Qin Dynasty wouldn't be in either of our interests. You should understand that, if Qin remains undivided, you have no chance at all."

After saying this, Yelu Qiming chuckled and patted Zhao Xuanji's shoulder. He casually grabbed an apple from the tea table, took a big bite, then strode away.

His attitude was arrogant and overbearing, as could be seen.

Looking at Yelü Qiming's retreating figure, Zhao Xuanji's face was as dark as the depths of a storm cloud.

Until long after, he closed his eyes and took a deep breath. When he opened them again, he had returned to the peerless overlord who had ruled the Qin dynasty for over a decade.

"" Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

Calling for the steward, Zhao Xuanji looked at the pitch-black sky overhead and said: “Go summon Wang Tenghuan, Zhang Biwu, and Fu Yuzhi, the three Grand Secretaries. Tell them that this old man has an urgent matter to discuss with them tonight, and there must be no delay.”

......

As the rooster crowed, announcing dawn, a sliver of pearly light peeked over the horizon. Li Chen had already risen from his bed.

As soon as Li Chen came out of the dormitory, he received all the information about Yelu Guzanqi that Dongchang had collected overnight.

This matter is personally in charge of Sān Bǎo.

Yelü Gùzànqí, the ninth prince of the Liao Kingdom, is the ninth son of the current Liao ruler Yelü Mánhuāng and the younger brother of the Crown Prince Yelü Shénxuán. Among Yelü Mánhuāng's twenty-three children, he is the most fierce and cruel in temperament. However, he is loyal to Yelü Mánhuāng and Yelü Shénxuán, and firmly supports the faction of the Crown Prince.

He currently holds the position of Deputy Marshal of Liao's Cavalry and General of the Second Rank, commanding 150,000 elite cavalry soldiers under his banner. He enjoys the trust of Yelu Manhuang and is known as a strong pillar supporting Yelu Shenxuan's peaceful succession to the throne.

Yelü Guzanqi served in the army for twenty-eight years, experiencing countless battles of all sizes. In the first twenty years, he was mainly responsible for confronting the Jin Kingdom. His most famous battle was the Battle of Feishui River in the Liao-Jin War, where he led eight thousand wounded and depleted soldiers to defeat the Jin army of 120,000 and successfully beheaded the Jin Grand Marshal's head. This battle severely weakened the Jin Kingdom, and it took several years for them to recover after he was transferred to the border against the Da Qin.

"It has been verified that Yelü Gǔzàn is cruel and violent, arrogant and domineering. He boasts about killing someone every day. His moods are erratic, and he often resorts to violence with swords and axes. Due to his extraordinary martial arts prowess, within the Liao kingdom, only the monarch Yelü Mǎnhuáng and the crown prince Yelü Shénxuán can control him."hem get fatter before I make my move."“I understand, Your Highness. Additionally, the Prince instructed me to thoroughly investigate the background of the Crown Princess Consort. Here are all the deta...
