whispered, "Xu Changqing is nothing but a lapdog of the Eastern Palace. He's not even worth mentioning. However, if the Eastern Palace blames us for this later, Your Highness should be careful. That'...Chapter 763: To See if He's Up to the Job
Yelü Guzanqi was quickly escorted over.
With the Three Treasures personally in charge, an accident is naturally impossible.
In fact, since then, Yelü Guzanqi has been living on two plain steamed buns and a bowl of congee every day except for the day he was treated to a good meal when he served as a target for practice.
The tiger is famished, having gone a month without food. It's almost too weak to stand.
Now Li Chen has let go of Yelü Guzanqi, he probably doesn't even have the strength to run out of the East Palace.
Looking at Yelu Guzanqi, who was pale and weak, his legs trembling like a pendulum, Li Chen smiled and said: "I have good news for you. The Liao envoy has arrived."
A gleam appeared in Yelü Guzanqi's eyes.
This means my miserable life as a beast is about to end...
He had once seen Li Chen raise a divine sea eagle, a mere common bird, yet it was fed meat every meal and even given fruits as dessert after meals. Meanwhile, his own two white steamed buns were far less fortunate than the beast's fare.
Now Yelü Guzanqi couldn't even think about what to do with revenge, let alone anything else. He just wanted to go back and eat a whole cow, then sleep soundly for days.
"A message has arrived, it's from the crown prince of your Liao Kingdom, Yelu Shenxuan."
Li Chen looked at Yelu Guzanqi, whose face was full of astonishment and disbelief, and said softly, "You say, isn't he afraid that this palace will kill him"
When Yelü Guzanqi heard this, he immediately became nervous.
He was so hungry that he could no longer think deeply, let alone consider the possibility of what Li Chen had suggested.
If Li Chen's thinking could be speculated with normal people's thoughts, he shouldn't have been imprisoned.
Well, what about the results
"If you dare to do anything to my prince, then the Liao cavalry will immediately march south!" Yelu Guzanqi threatened in a loud voice.
Li Chen looked impatient. "I've heard this a thousand times. You said the same thing when I wanted to kill Yelü Qiming, and you said the same thing when we caught you."
Yelü Guzanqi flushed red and said, "How can my status compare to that of the Crown Prince"
With a light chuckle, Li Chen said, "It seems you're unaware of his purpose for coming this time"
Yelü Guzanqi proudly said, "Naturally, they came to rescue me."
As a prisoner, you still have your country's prince risk his life to come here. I really don't know what you're proud of.
Li Chen's single sentence instantly broke through Yelü Guzanqi's defenses.
"Don't get too cocky!"
Yelü Guzanqi gritted his teeth and said, "My prince is not comparable to you at all. As soon as he arrives, you will surely surrender obediently."
"Idiot."
Li Chen let out a mocking laugh. "Now he's the one bringing ransom to redeem his people, instead of this palace going to him."
Besides, it's childish to refuse to accept defeat at your age, isn't it
Li Chen stood up and said, "Let's go to Taihe Palace and prepare to welcome the prince of Liao."
Yelü Guzanqi was about to turn around when he saw Li Chen smoothly draw from behind him a fire lance that would haunt his dreams, the very same unimpressive-looking but terrifyingly powerful firearm!
"Why did you go to Taihe Palace with firearms!” Yelu Guzanqi exclaimed.
"Look at your princely family, whether they come to the right path or not. If they do, this palace will receive him. If they don't, this fire gun will receive him."
Li Chen finished speaking, grabbed his musket and strode out the door.
Yelü Guzanqi tried to say something more, but he was grabbed by Sibaobao by the collar and dragged out like a chick.no more than five people in the entire Qin Empire, and you are definitely not one of them. How did you know"Zhou Ping'an stopped his steps, bowed his head deeply and avoided looking at Li Chen. He spo...
