Chapter 1848: The Ancient Zha Tribe Will Wipe Out All Liao DogsChapter 1618: Though Humble, I Influenced History
Regardless of what Yelu Shenxuan was thinking, Xiao Tiannan's words continued.
At the moment, most of the Prince's power is tied up at Moonlit Pass. Within the Wolf Court, there are serious dangers. Even though many still loyal to the Prince remain, if those powerful nobles were to unite, the Prince's predicament would be dire indeed.
Although these are merely my humble speculations and worst-case scenarios, it is imperative to consider them in advance.
Xiao Tiannan bowed slightly and said, "In my humble opinion, the Crown Prince absolutely cannot return to Langting at this time. Instead, he should... first kill Li Chen!"
Yelü Shenxuan's eyes flickered, and he said in a deep voice, "Continue!"
It can be seen that Yelü Shenxuan was moved.
Xiao Tiannan let out a huge sigh of relief, but he still didn't dare to relax. He said eagerly, "My Liao nation and the Great Qin are mortal enemies. I don't know how many people in my country hate the Great Qin to their bones. Once the prince captured Li Chen alive, even if he killed him, it would be a groundbreaking feat."
"This is one credit, but more importantly, it greatly helps the prince's prestige."
"Yuèyáguān was conquered by the Crown Prince, and Lǐ Chén was captured by the Crown Prince. To deal with the State of Qin, only the Crown Prince can be relied upon. No one else would work, and facing the frenzied retaliation the State of Qin would inevitably launch, which noble in the country would dare to stand up"
"At that time, even if they didn't want to acknowledge him, they would have to bite the bullet and acknowledge the Crown Prince."
"At that time, the prince ascending to the throne was only natural, and no one could stop it."
Because Qin was the biggest help for the prince's ascension to the throne. As long as those powerful nobles couldn't be sure that they could defeat Qin while also fighting the prince, they wouldn't have any control over him.
Xiao Tiannan took a deep breath and finally said solemnly, "Crown Prince, this matter is difficult to decide because it involves too much. But precisely because of this, Crown Prince must make a decision with unparalleled courage and determination as quickly as possible... The fate of the nation rests on the Crown Prince's every thought!"
After Xiao Tiannan finished speaking, a long silence followed.
And Xiao Tiannan said no more.
He knew very well that he had said everything he could and should have said.
If Yelu Shenxuan had made up his mind, then not only would all these words be useless, but he might even be killed because of what he just said.
But Xiao Tiannan didn't care.
Anyway, in his estimation, if he failed to complete the mission, he would be finished sooner or later.
It's just a difference between dying early and dying late.
I've done all I can, now it's just a matter of waiting and seeing what fate has in store.
I don't know how long that suffocating, oppressive silence had lasted, but finally, Xiao Tiannan heard Yelü Shenxuan speak.
"You're doing great."
Yelü Shenxuan stood up, his face resolute. He spoke in a clear voice: “Immediately send an order to the army, prepare at once, and instruct the scouts to find Li Chen’s location again. In half an hour, the entire army will exit the pass and capture the Prince of Qin alive!”
These words made Xiao Tiannan's heart tremble.
He knew that it was more than just completing the task.
Even with his meager and insignificant power, he swayed the destinies of the mighty Qin and Liao empires, and even shaped the course of the entire world.
The feeling that this influences the course of history is very mysterious.
Xiao Tiannan's heart was filled with mixed emotions.
"What reward do you desire" Yelu Shenxuan asked.
Xiao Tiannan's heart trembled, he knelt on the ground and said, "Everything... is what a humble minister should do, his loyalty... I dare not ask for any rewards."u forge ahead. I know my abilities are limited and cannot help Your Highness much. I can only offer a sincere heart, begging Heaven for mercy, praying that the Almighty will show grace, allowing the...
