Chapter 765: Treating Friends With Courtesy, Not Like Wolves

ors were men like Yan Song and Qin Hui. But these traitors mostly served the imperial power and were used and discarded by emperors who then blamed them for their mistakes. But you, Duan Jiang, are di...Chapter 765: Treating Friends With Hospitality, Not Like Wolves

"I am the prince of Liao, I started learning literature at the age of three, martial arts at five, and could write poems and prose by seven. At twelve, I personally tamed the fiercest blood horse. By fifteen, I led troops into battle."

"Though he is only in his twenties, he has a legendary experience and unparalleled talent, something you ignorant Qin people simply cannot fathom!"

The more he spoke, the more confident and louder Yelu Guguzhi became.

He was completely oblivious to the fact that he was being ridiculed. Everyone else in the room was laughing at him, except for him.

Li Chen raised an eyebrow and said, "Is the Ninth Prince feeling well-fed and full of energy now"

Yelü Guzanqi was now genuinely afraid of Li Chen. Hearing this, he immediately shut his mouth.

At the same time, he secretly swore in his heart that when he returned to Liao after this, he would definitely have you pay for your blood debt with blood...

One night, the three thousand li grassland turned green...

This remark landed in Li Chen's ears rather interestingly.

I don't know how many empresses Yelv Shenxuan had... I heard that in their Liao Kingdom, these nomadic tribes often had a dozen or so wives. The higher-ranking ones didn't even need to be mentioned...

By the time the speaker was finished, the Liao envoy had arrived outside the Ta'ihe Hall.

Yelü Shenxuan led the way, followed by Hale Dali and others.

Over a hundred cavalrymen were definitely not allowed into the city. Yelu Shenxuan didn't insist either, ordering them to camp outside the city. Eight people, civil and military, walked straight towards Taihe Hall.

At that moment, the civil and military officials inside the Taihe Palace involuntarily straightened their chests and gazed intently at Yelu Shenxuan outside the door.

Under the gaze of all, he brought his people to the front of the Taihe Hall, and was about to cross the threshold into the hall when Yelu Shenxuan suddenly stopped.

This scene surprised everyone.

Standing at the threshold of the Taihe Hall, Yelu Shenxuan looked up and gazed at Li Chen who stood beside the dragon throne.

On the Imperial throne, beside the dragon chair, Li Chen also looked at Yelü Shenxuan.

Two people faced each other across the bright and grand main hall of Taihe Palace.

One is the prince of the Qin Empire, and the other is the crown prince of the Liao Kingdom.

Their identities are the same.

And yet, both the First Emperor of Qin and the Liao lord Yelü Manhuang were in poor health.

Perhaps in no time, the two of them will inherit their fathers' positions and become the supreme rulers of their respective countries.

One controlled the most powerful cavalry nomadic nation on the vast grasslands, while the other ruled a massive empire with a history spanning millennia, revered as the central dynasty and receiving homage from all under heaven.

Originally, they were almost impossible to meet, but by coincidence, they still met.

Sharing the same identity, destined to hold power over millions in the future, Li Chen and Yelu Shenxuan's relationship was not one of mutual understanding but rather that of two young tigers meeting prematurely.

Having shed their youth, they now grow fangs and claws. They care nothing for the kinship that binds them, only the single-minded desire to kill each other.

Yelü Shenxuan, who stood tall and straight, looked like a jade tree in the wind, his demeanor elegant and dashing. He looked at Li Chen, a smile playing on his lips, his voice warm as he uttered the first words they had ever spoken to each other.

"The Qin state boasts of its adherence to rituals. Today, I have traveled far as a guest. Shouldn't the prince of Qin, as the host, invite me in"

There were dozens of people present, all top figures from either the Qin or Liao dynasties. Yet they held their breaths and no one dared to speak out of turn.

The crown prince of Liao spoke, and the only one who could respond was the crown prince of Qin.

Li Chen spoke leisurely: "The rites of hospitality in the Great Qin Empire number in the dozens, but these courtesy are only for friends, not wolves." provocation.He Kun glanced at Li Chen's face, then hesitated for a while before standing up to say to Hu Kai: "What kind of gift did Wen Wang send Is there an inventory list"Hu Kai was neither servil...
