but reach for the silver, a smile curled up at the corner of his mouth, and said: "It's done, there is still a heavy reward."Xu Wei took his own fifty taels of silver and, leading the way, cupped his...Chapter 791 This Deal Is Worth It

Li Yinhu's face changed dramatically, with greed, fear, and more importantly, uncertainty.

Zhaoxuanji had paved the way for this very moment, and he wouldn't give up now. He increased his volume and pace, saying, “This is a once-in-a-millennium opportunity, and it's also our last chance to fight back against despair. King Zhao absolutely cannot hesitate at this time.”

"One general achieves success, ten thousand bones wither. What more can be said about the Dragon Throne, the supreme position of the Nine Five As long as this step is taken, I will support you in ascending to the throne, and there will absolutely be no opposition from the court. At that time, King Zhao, you will be the new sovereign!"

Li Yinhu's mind was racing, feeling as though the golden dragon throne in Taihe Palace beckoned him.

He longed to experience what it would be like to sit in that chair, even in his dreams.

Right now, I'm just one leap away from that chair

Li Yinhu panted heavily, his eyes bloodshot.

Faced with such a huge temptation, Li Yinhu felt his reason crumbling.

He swallowed hard and said, "But, but even if we don't say the Crown Prince is cruel and cunning, wouldn't those vassal kings have a reason to march their armies if we succeeded"

Zhao Xuanji sneered and said, "So what Even if the prince is strong, can he be stronger than the Liao cavalry"

“I have already reached an agreement with the Crown Prince of Liao. As soon as we make a move, domestic chaos will erupt immediately. Regardless of the outcome, the vassal kings will be unable to sit idly by. Moreover, regardless of whether they can remain seated or not, the Liao cavalry will inevitably cross the Moonlit Pass. At that time, with 600,000 troops marching south, which vassal king could possibly withstand them”

Li Yinhu's head buzzed, and he felt like many things suddenly made sense.

No wonder Zhao Xuanji was so eager, this was probably not just what he wanted to do, but also what the Liao Kingdom wanted him to do.

And as for Wen Wang's side of things, Long Huaiyu had told him about the progress of the matter. Li Yinhu knew better than anyone else.

Zhao Xuanji is facing diplomatic pressure and can no longer contain it.

He didn't want to die, so he had to go all in.

... and oneself....

Li Yinhu turned his head to look at Zhao Xuanji, and said with a husky voice: "Elder Zhao, you have a reason to make a move, but I..."

"Are you afraid"

Zhaoxuanji was not surprised that Li Yinhǔ could guess some things, but he was not afraid at all that Li Yinhǔ would not take the bait.

"I had to do it, but how much better off do you think you are"

After I fell, who did the Crown Prince target next Need I say more

"Now, in the court, only I have the ability to rival him, even surpass him. But the situation forces me to act ahead of schedule, but that doesn't change the fact that we are already on the same side."

Li Yinhu gritted his teeth, knowing that Zhao Xuanji was speaking the truth.

But he had one more concern.

"Elder, please tell me the truth, what agreement did you reach with the Liao State"

Zhao Xuanji looked at Li Yinhu and said calmly, "Governance by canals."

Li Yinhu's eyes widened, and he exclaimed, "This is treason!"

Zhao Xuanji sneered: "When you ascend the throne, this will be your country, and only then will you have the qualification to think about how to take back what has been lost. Now, how much does this country have to do with you This is the prince's country!"

Li Yinhu was speechless.

He stood there for a long time, then suddenly burst into laughter.

"Yes, the elder statesman is right. None of it belongs to me, so why should I worry Even if I ruled only half the land, it would still be mine. Only what truly belongs to me is worth caring about."

"Give me half my empire for the prince's country That's a steal!"i and cried out, "My lord, I deserve to die ten thousand deaths! I am incompetent! I have failed to fulfill your orders."When Hu Pi saw this, he could only sigh and close his eyes in silence.At this s...
