Chapter 783: Arrangement

    

lded, was the first to react. His old face flushed red with anger and excitement, his whole body trembling. He shouted angrily: "Your Highness insults an old minister like this, don't you consider us...Chapter 783: Arrangement

After being pushed to the brink by Li Chen, Zhao Xuanji finally took that step.

He knew that seizing the throne was impossible, so he had to settle for something less.

"If the Li clan of the Qin Dynasty doesn't want me to live, then I can only bury the entire Qin Dynasty with my own hands."

Zhao Xuance stared intently at Yelü Shenxuan, his expression gradually contorting into a grotesque and almost deranged grimace.

"I will first raise an army and cause chaos within the Qin Dynasty. When I make my move, those feudal lords will definitely find all sorts of excuses to send their troops out. Whether it's to assist the emperor or to seize power, they all want to expand their territory and turn the imperial court into a puppet regime, just like the Three Kingdoms period where warlords divided the country amongst themselves."

Under normal circumstances, they might have thrown the entire Qin dynasty into chaos, eventually vying for supremacy until a single, strongest vassal king emerged victorious.

But at that time, I would have opened the Crescent Gate, allowing 600,000 soldiers from the Liao Kingdom to enter the borders of the Great Qin. With the strength of the Liao Kingdom, they could completely sweep away all obstacles.

“My request is simple: the river Yangtze shall be the dividing line. All lands north of the Yangtze belong to Liao, and all lands south of the Yangtze belong to me. Zhao Xuanji!”

Yelü Shenxuan narrowed his eyes, listening to Zhao Xuanji's words. He also watched as Zhao Xuanji's eyes gradually turned red, his expression becoming frenzied as if he had already seen the successful outcome of their plan.

This old dog is crazy.

This is the evaluation of Yelü Shenxuan.

But he didn't care.

Even hope Zhao Xuanji goes even more crazy.

Only if Zhao Xuanji completely goes mad will the Liao state have a chance to gain the greatest benefits at the least cost.

And today, the benefits Zhao Xuanji brought him surprised him greatly.

“You’re still a Qin person at heart, aren’t you Doing this won’t you fear being branded a traitor” Yelu Shenxuan suddenly asked.

"Hahaha!"

This time, it was Zhao Xuanji's turn to laugh. He waved his hand and said, "I would rather lose to the world than have the world lose to me!"

"Let a hundred corpses lie, let millions perish, what else can be done when selling one's country"

"A hundred years from now, who will remember today's events I, Zhao Xuanji, will be the one laughing in the end. The Li clan of the Qin Dynasty is destined to become a rat crossing the street!"

"It's not just me; a large number of officials in the court are also willing to defect to my side. This is why I said earlier that many people have long admired the Liao Kingdom."

"Good, very good."

Yelü Shenxuan was in high spirits and said, "I promise you, as long as you can open the Yueya Pass gates, I'll give you whatever you want to rule from the river."

But you don't have much time, six hundred thousand soldiers consume a lot every day, even the Liao Kingdom can't afford to delay it. I can persuade my father to give you a month's time.

"Within this month, you must make the Qin dynasty completely chaotic, no matter what means you use."

Zhao Xuanji's eyes flickered with a sinister light, and he said coldly: "Rest assured, it may not even take a month."

Half an hour later, Zhao Xuanji left the inn where the Liao envoy's delegation was staying.

Immediately afterward, Yelü Shenxuan summoned several ministers from the Liao Dynasty who were close to him.

"Lord Shi and Lord Xiao have gone out, probably attracted by the prosperity of the Qin capital as it's their first time here. I shall immediately dispatch someone to call them back"

Listening to his subordinates' reports, Yelü Shenxuan frowned, but he didn't mind. These two people, one sent by the father khan and the other by Wanyan Zhide, appeared obedient on the surface, but after all, they were not his own disciples and couldn't be trusted.

"Forget it, if they want to go, let them go. I don't think anything will come of it. Call the other adults here to my room, I have something important to discuss with them... Summon Prince Nine as well."cess."Over the past century, Yueya Guan can be said to be a truly impregnable fortress, impervious even to water."Li Chen's fingers tapped against the table, his eyes closed in thought.Su Zhen Ting ha...
