Chapter 83: Li Yan, one of the Six Thieves of Northern Song, is dead

Great Song, Lin'an, in the imperial palace.

"I don't know what Your Majesty's intention is..."

Prime Minister Cai Jing was calm and composed. Facing Zhao Ji's inquiry, he did not answer but asked in return.

"What do I want?!"

"Various countries are furious, what can I do?!"

"Since the envoys of various countries want the Quanzhen Sect to apologize, then let the Quanzhen Sect apologize!"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Ji spoke lightly. Without asking for the reason, he directly wanted the Quanzhen Sect to apologize to the various countries.

"No matter how the Quanzhen Sect apologizes, I don't care, as long as it can dissipate the fury of the various countries!"

"I am still too benevolent! If it weren't for me considering the overall situation, under the fury of the various countries, they would send troops to crusade, and my Great Song people would surely fall into deep water and scorching fire!"

"For the sake of Great Song, I am really... too hard!"

Zhao Ji sighed toward the sky, as if even he himself was moved by himself.

"Yes! Your Majesty has maintained the situation of Great Song all these years... it is really too hard!"

Cai Jing nodded, as if he felt the same way. He changed the subject and said, "Since this is the case, this old minister thinks that Li Yan can be sent to the Quanzhen Sect to hold them accountable!"

"Li Yan?! Okay!"

Zhao Ji thought for a while and nodded in agreement, as if he had thought of something. "Right! I remember when the envoys of various countries arrived last time, it was for a... child?!"

"They said this child created some kind of cultivation method?! Just kidding, what kind of cultivation method can a child create?!"

"However! Since the envoys of various countries think this child created a cultivation method and want to get this child... this time it is another great disaster caused by the Quanzhen Sect, then... use this child as an apology!"

"Using a child to exchange for the Quanzhen Sect to be safe and sound, and to exchange for Great Song not to suffer from war... I think that child would also be willing!"

Using a child to dissipate the anger of various countries, Zhao Ji thought it was worth it, too worth it!

Of course, Zhao Ji could not be sure that a child could dissipate the anger of various countries, but let's try it first, what if it works?!

"Uh..."

Cai Jing was stunned. Although he knew Zhao Ji was unreliable, he did not expect Zhao Ji to be so unreliable.

Using a child to exchange for the forgiveness of various countries?!

Your Majesty, are you serious?!

Moreover, there is only one child, who should this child be handed over to?!

Will the various countries really agree?!

Cai Jing wanted to speak but stopped. But in the end, he thought about it and still said nothing.

Soon, the eunuch Li Yan, carrying Zhao Ji's imperial decree, went to the Quanzhen Sect.

Mount Zhongnan, Quanzhen Sect, in the Chongyang Palace.

The eunuch Li Yan, followed by a group of eunuchs, held the imperial decree high in his right hand, standing at the highest point in the Chongyang Palace.

The Seven Masters of Quanzhen, as well as a group of Quanzhen disciples, stood below, respectfully listening to the imperial decree. ===== CHAPTER 85 =====
