Chapter 1992: Three kingdoms exchange together, conditions that shock the entire world!

Boom!

Thousand-year dragon pearls!

Status of a Prince!

Share the territory?!

The civil and military officials of Da Qian were completely numb, leaving only silent horror!

Chu Kingdom's conditions had actually raised the stakes to an unimaginable height on top of the suffocating foundation of Yan Kingdom!

Let alone Gao Yang, even they were red-eyed just hearing it, wishing they could take his place!

As a civil official and strategist, to be able to reach this point is simply to have no regrets even in death!

How is this seeking talent? This is clearly splitting the land and conferring titles!

This is what a minister seeks for a lifetime!

The Chu Emperor is crazy, truly crazy!

Xiang Qu did not wait for the crowd to react, his gaze piercing Wu Zhao like a knife, carrying naked provocation and disdain.

"Emperor of Qian! Such world-shaking talent as Prime Minister Gao has ended up in such a state in your Da Qian. Instead of leaving a bright pearl covered in dust and a good horse trapped in the stable, why doesn't Your Majesty let go and fulfill this beautiful deed? If he goes to my Great Chu, with Prime Minister Gao's talent and my Emperor's ability to tolerate people, he will surely be able to let Prime Minister Gao's talent benefit the masses of the world!"

Bright pearl covered in dust?

Good horse trapped in the stable?

Especially that phrase "my Emperor's ability to tolerate people"—it was more direct, more insulting, and more like a knife carving into the heart than Murong Fu's words!

Wang Zhong could no longer hold back and sprayed in anger.

"Audacious madman! How dare you humiliate Her Majesty in the Jin Luandian! Do you think there is no one in Da Qian?!"

The officials were also filled with righteous indignation, one after another shouting in anger.

"Arrogant! His heart deserves to be punished!"

"Prime Minister Gao resigning was a noble act of integrity, returning to seclusion of his own accord; what does it have to do with Her Majesty? Stop spouting blood!"

"If you dare to talk nonsense again, be careful of your life!"

Xiang Qu was very calm, even picking his ears.

Since he came, he was not afraid of death.

Just as the clamor had not yet subsided, Qi envoy Tian Ying, with a smile as warm as the spring breeze in March, stepped forward calmly.

This step instantly absorbed everyone's gaze.

Yan and Chu had already thrown out the price of an entire nation; could it be that Great Qi... is also going to follow suit?

Tian Ying looked at Wu Zhao, his body standing straight, his voice clear, yet every word was like a ten-thousand-pound hammer.

"Your Majesty, the thirst for talent and the sincerity of the two envoys from Yan and Chu are truly moving. Coincidentally, my Great Qi Emperor has always treated people with sincerity and has always rewarded the talent of a national scholar with the rites of a national scholar."

"My Emperor is also willing to offer: one hundred thousand taels of gold! Ten thousand-year-old coral trees from the Western Regions, each requiring five people to embrace, a miracle of heaven and earth, and another one hundred boxes of rare treasures, containing rare items such as mermaid tears from the East Sea and warm jade discs from Kunlun!"

Tian Ying paused, his smile unchanged, but he threw out the real king bomb that could overturn the entire court.

"Not only that, to show my Emperor's sincerity and the importance he places on the world's talent, my Emperor is willing to cede ten prosperous border cities, including Hejian, Yunzhong, and Shanggu. The city maps, household registers, and land deeds have all been prepared, waiting only for Prime Minister Gao to enter Qi to be delivered immediately!"

"These ten cities are all fertile lands, with thousands of miles of rich fields and a large population. My Emperor is willing to use these ten cities as a betrothal gift to invite Prime Minister Gao!"

"And, he promises Prime Minister Gao the position of Prime Minister of Great Qi, overseeing national politics, establishing his own office, reaching the pinnacle of officialdom, governing the world together with my Emperor. The place of delivery is for Your Majesty to choose! My Emperor... will also personally come to welcome him, take Prime Minister Gao's hand, offer sacrifices to the ancestral temple, and announce it to the world!"

Ceding ten cities?!

Position of Prime Minister?!

Governing the world together?!

Crazy!

They are all fucking crazy!

Some civil officials who knew the geography of Qi were shocked to the core; Hejian, Yunzhong, and Shanggu were not border towns at all!

They were all military strongholds and fertile lands that Great Qi guarded as key points!

Ceding ten cities to exchange for one person? This is simply an act of destroying the nation that would cause one's ancestors to whip their souls after death!

But the Qi Emperor actually did it!

Rumble!!!

The entire Jin Luandian seemed to be destroyed by an invisible giant force, and even rapid breathing seemed to stop!

Thump!

A young civil official could no longer endure the agitation in his heart; his vision went black, and he fell backward.

He actually fainted!
