The Kangtai Hall fell silent for a moment.

No one dares to speak recklessly on this topic.

Even breathing felt stifled, his voice held back lest it attract the prince's attention.

All eyes were on Li Chen.

Li Chen's next attitude, whether he agrees or not, will directly affect the survival of Xian Chao.

But Li Chen did not immediately respond.

He looked at Su Zhenting and said, “General Su, what do you think of this matter”

This was a script that the two of them had planned out long ago.

Su Zhen'ting remained calm and composed, cupping his fist he said, "Your Majesty, I believe that the request from Xian Chao should not be granted."

At these words, every member of the Xian Dynasty's delegation looked up at Su Zhen-ting.

Their eyes were almost blazing with fury, wishing they could kill Su Zhen Ting.

But Su Zhenting remained unmoved. He said in a deep voice, "The domestic situation is also not optimistic now. There are natural disasters, and the Tuyuhun and Xiongnu are restless at the border. Although the situation seems calm now, in fact, it's a chain reaction!"

"For the imperial court, most of its national strength and resources were devoted to disaster relief. The people's lives were also hard-pressed, not to mention that the treasury was empty and all aspects of conditions were insufficient to support a long-distance war."

Li Chen remained calm and looked at Jin Xueyuan, saying, "Princess Jin, you heard it too. The Qin State is also struggling with its own affairs. If we were to easily send troops to the Xian Dynasty, it would likely be a big entanglement."

Jin Xueyuan looked at Li Chen's expression, and for some reason, she suddenly thought of the day at the restaurant when this rascal used his sweet words to trick her into losing her innocence.

Had she not gone through this, she would probably be as despairing as the other members of her delegation now.

But now, she knew that Li Chen wasn't truly refusing.

Gritting her teeth, Jin Xueyuan said: "All expenses of the Shangguo army will be borne by the Xianchao royal family, and for any casualties incurred, the royal family is willing to pay double the compensation. Furthermore, regarding the Taizu's Treasure, there have been some clues recently, and the Dali Longque serves as proof. However, due to the sudden outbreak of war, everything was interrupted. The Xianchao royal family pledges that after the war, they will do everything in their power to find the treasure and offer it to Your Highness!"

Treasure of the Ancestors!

This is an irresistible temptation!

Su Zhen and Li Chen exchanged information through their eyes.

As for Su Zhen Ting, when he discussed countermeasures with Li Chen before, he had no idea about the treasure.

Even Li Chen himself only learned about the treasure from Jin Xueyuan before the banquet began.

And he also believed that this was merely a political tool provided by the Xian Dynasty to divert domestic attention and political contradictions.

But the great dragon, the one who was truly vanquished, lay at his feet.

Fingers traced the engraved patterns on the Great Cooling Dragon Sparrow sword, a chilling sensation emanating from the icy steel hilt. Nearly a thousand years had passed, yet time and wear hadn't corroded the blade; instead, they had only intensified its frigid edge, its point piercing the very heart.

The officials of the Qin Dynasty were almost in an uproar.

The Imperial Treasures of Taizu, these four words are not a secret at all, but rather something any commoner of the Qin Dynasty would be familiar with.

Because it's incredibly famous.

Since the passing of the太祖 (Taizu), for over a hundred years that followed, nearly seven emperors who ascended to the throne all dedicated immense manpower and resources to searching for it. Not only did the imperial court make this effort, but many common people were also captivated by the prospect of the treasure, secretly mobilizing forces beyond measure.

Even so, for over three hundred years, no one has ever been heard to find the whereabouts of this treasure.

Gradually, everyone came to believe that the treasure was nothing but a legend, and that Taizu had left behind no treasure at all.

Yet, the appearance of the Great Cold Dragon Sparrow is a fact as hard as iron.

"Such a treasure trove of the Taizu!"orward would be killed without mercy.This scene made Lin Huaiyu and Lin Huaizhang's hearts suddenly jump into their throats.The sound of hooves drumming approached, a line of elite Jinyiwei officers r...
