Wherever Li Chen went, the originally noisy and chaotic discussions would immediately die down.

All eyes followed Li Chen's figure, wondering why the prince had suddenly descended from the imperial platform.

Until Li Chen reached the threshold of the Taihe Hall, standing behind it and facing Yelu Shenxuan across a threshold.

Pointing to the threshold beneath his feet, Li Chen said, "Within this threshold lies Taihe Hall, which is the Great Qin."

Yeh Lü Shén Xuǎn frowned slightly. He didn't understand what Li Chén meant either, but he still said: "Do you mean that all the territory outside the threshold belongs to my Liao Kingdom"

Ye Lu Shen Xuan thought his sentence was very profound.

But Li Chen shook his head and said, "No, I mean that outside the gate, under the yellow sky, within the land of all states, it is also the territory of the Qin."

"And the territory of the Qin Dynasty, it would never be borrowed from others."

"Perhaps the prince of Liao should consider lending his wives to this palace for a while"

Li Chen's words, like those of a street ruffian, caused Ye Lu Shen Xuan's face to darken instantly.

Before he could speak, Hale, who had just recovered from a wrist fracture, blurted out, "You're nothing but a low-life Qin prince, how dare you disrespect my prince!"

"For so many years, when hasn't our Liao Kingdom been the one putting your Qin Dynasty in its place Just based on your words, I say that 600,000 sons of the Liao Kingdom could instantly storm into Qin and slaughter all your descendants, taking all your wives and daughters!"

Li Chen stared at Yelü Shenxuan, listening impassively to Hale's words.

"Is this the attitude of your Liaoning Kingdom"

Li Chen asked Yelü Shenxuan.

Yelü Shenxuan did not speak.

Li Chen suddenly raised the fire gun in his hand, jamming the barrel directly into Halle's mouth, who was still spouting saliva endlessly.

Then......

A deep and resonant gunshot echoed.

Blue smoke billows.

Haller's head exploded with a deafening crack, a geyser of blood erupting from the gaping hole in his back. The man himself seemed frozen in place.

Halle's loud voice abruptly stopped.

A splash of blood splattered onto Yelu Shenxuan's half-face.

It made him close his eyes involuntarily.

The metallic tang of blood from his nostrils, along with the hot sensation of blood trickling down his face, left Yelü Shenxuan somewhat disoriented.

"Then let me tell you, this is the attitude of the Great Qin."m the Ministry of Rites had been transferred from Dongshan Province. He was said to love eating scallions dearly and would even nibble on one while on duty. An imperial censor who came to handle busi...
