Chapter 824 - 821: Paying Respects
"Send someone to follow the King of Xihuai and relay the messages back at any moment! If necessary, take the King of Xihuai on a detour. Order our people to depart and ensure they meet the Rong Ghost-faced Prince before the King of Xihuai encounters Xiangliang. Then... let our people protect the King of Xihuai well!"
Xiao Rongyan’s voice paused and then continued, "Also, send a message back to the Wei Kingdom. The time has come. Let the secret agents embedded in the Wei royal court meet the Prime Minister Gongsun Chi in person. Tell Prime Minister Gongsun... if he is willing to persuade Emperor Wei and Empress Dowager Wei to surrender to Yan, he can keep his life. Otherwise, since Prime Minister Gongsun has coincidentally formed close ties with Xiliang this time, we will fulfill his wishes and charge him with collusion with Xiliang."
Xiao Rongyan had not yet learned from the King of Xihuai what kind of deal Gongsun Chi and Xiliang had made. If Gongsun Chi refuses to surrender to Yan, he would be a problem and could not be kept alive!
Yan Kingdom had meticulously planned for this moment in the Wei Kingdom for many years, exerting all efforts just for this Prime Minister Gongsun.
The Gongsun family in the Wei Kingdom, much like the Bai family in the Jin Kingdom, were loyal and upright ministers, the backbone of their nation. Xiao Rongyan admired them...
But admiration aside, Yan Kingdom had struggled to reach this point, allowing no room for error. Xiao Rongyan would remove any obstacle, regardless of who it might be.
"Yes!" Yue Shi responded and quickly leaped off the roof tiles to arrange people to follow the King of Xihuai.
Since the King of Xihuai had the determination to live and die with his mother country, Xiao Rongyan thought that if he really found a way to keep the King of Xihuai in Daliang, it might lead the King of Xihuai to lifelong regret.
