press his anger and said, "Today, you performed well."Xu Wei's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately bowed his head and clasped his fists together, saying, "Everything I have is bestowed by Your Hi...Chapter 624 Needless to Say

Li Chen's words left Zhao Xuanji utterly humiliated.

He wore a stern expression, staring calmly at Li Chen, and said in a soft voice: "Your Highness, being stubborn will only make things worse."

"That's better than begging."

Li Chen said bluntly, "They forcibly abducted women and brutally killed our Qin subjects first. This palace killed them to uphold justice and act on behalf of the people. If this leads to a war between the two countries, then let there be war!"

"Since we're at it, let's just keep Yelü Guzanqi in the capital. His life as the Ninth Prince can be considered as a small part of the interest for all the harm the Liao country has inflicted on my Qin people over these years."

Li Chen's words sent shivers down Zhao Xuanji's spine.

Looking back on everything, Zhao Xuanji didn't doubt for a moment that Li Chen could do what he said.

"Absolutely not!"

Zhao Xuanji shouted angrily, "Your Highness, this is a reckless use of force, you're going to ruin the ancestral foundation!"

"The ancestral property belongs to my Li family's ancestors, not your Zhao family's."

Li Chen said coldly, “Even if our ancestors were here, they would only support this palace's choice and would never allow this palace to kneel and beg for survival.”

"All right!"

Li Chen waved his hand dismissively and said coldly, "My decision is final. There's no need to say more about this."

“When Yelu Guzanqi arrives, this palace will have something to say. Grand Tutor, you needn't worry about it.”

Zhao Xuanji gritted her teeth.

At this moment, Li Chen used his status as a prince to overpower him, which suddenly made his anger boil.

"Your Highness, if you insist on doing this, then this old minister will take his leave!"

Zhao Xuanji said coldly, "I'm afraid the Crown Prince will regret it."

Li Chen narrowed his eyes and glared at Zhao Xuanji, saying, "Are you threatening this palace"

At this moment, Li Chen truly had the urge to directly kill Zhao Xuanji.

He glanced at the giant dragon sparrow hanging on the wall next to him, becoming increasingly restless.

Zhao Qinglan, who had been paying close attention to Li Chen, immediately sensed Li Chen's thoughts. Her heart turned cold, and she was about to speak when someone else jumped out.

Wang Tenghuan.

"Your Highness has misunderstood. The Grand Tutor meant no threat to you at all."

Wang Tenghuan bowed slightly, and said in a lukewarm tone: "I just hope that Your Highness will consider it carefully. Please don't think that the affairs of state can be maintained by one person alone."

"At court, most civil and military officials believe that we should not provoke the anger of the Liao Kingdom at this time. Today's actions by Your Highness have also caused dissatisfaction among the vast majority of officials. Could it be that Your Highness wants to become the first prince in Qin Dynasty history to be forced into confinement"

As soon as these words were spoken, Zhao Qinglan's heart skipped a beat.

Even she knew that Wang Tenghuan's words had stirred up a hornet's nest.

As expected, Li Chen's face was covered in frost, his expression frighteningly grim.

"Be bold!"

After a long silence, Su Zhen's booming voice echoed through the air. His eyes narrowed into slits as he glared at Wang Tenghuan, and roared, "You dare utter such outrageous words!"

Su Zhen Ting exuded an imposing aura. As a general commanding his troops, his fierce and domineering presence sent a shiver down Wang Teng Huan's spine. Before he could explain himself, Li Chen had already made his move.

He raised his hand and took down the great green dragon sparrow from the wall. With a clang, Taizu's sword was unsheathed, its cold light piercing straight towards Wang Tenghuan.

The long sword rested against Wang Tenghuan's neck. Li Chen asked without a shred of emotion, "Lord Wang, are you trying to usurp the throne"

Wang Tenghuan's face instantly turned as pale as paper.

He just wanted to cheer Zhao Xuanji on and intimidate Li Chen into backing down, but he definitely didn't want to face Li Chen's powerful Big Cool Dragon Sparrow head-on.

Now, he could only look at Zhao Xuanji with pleading eyes. Haven't you seen that this palace still needs to assign tasks to her and negotiate conditions with her"Wan Jiajiao pouted, obviously unhappy.Although she was angry with Huiyu, she also knew that one...
