Chapter 260: Getting rid of Jiang Chen
"What?!"
After hearing Jiang Chen's words, even though Ban Cheng had lived for so many years, he couldn't help but be shocked.
It took Ban Cheng a long time to calm down after being so shocked.
"Why, old gentleman, you are not interested?"
Seeing that Ban Cheng didn't reply for a long time, Jiang Chen continued to ask with a smile.
Hearing Jiang Chen asking him again, Ban Cheng had no choice to answer.
"Replying to the Duke of Fuguo, I don't understand what you mean."
"Old sir, please don't pretend not to understand. I don't want to ask you again."
Jiang Chen said this, staring at Ban Cheng with a half-smile.
Under Jiang Chen's gaze, Ban Cheng, who always boasted that he had seen many storms, gradually lost his composure.
"Duke Fuguo, we in Qi are not interested in Ming prisoners of war."
After hesitating for a while, Ban Cheng bowed to Jiang Chen and said.
"Hahaha, old man, don't be so anxious to refuse first."
"Please take a look at this, old man, and then make a decision!"
Jiang Chen said as he threw a document in front of Ban Cheng.
Ban Cheng took the document from Chen Xu with doubt, slowly opened it and began to read it.
As Ban Cheng finished reading the document in his hand, the old man's whole body began to tremble slowly.
"Fu...Fuguogong, aren't you going too far!?"
"oh?!"
"I don't know, what I have prepared is excessive."
Facing Ban Cheng's question, Jiang Chen pretended not to understand.
Seeing Jiang Chen say this, Ban Cheng snorted coldly and threw the document to the ground.
Then, Ban Cheng pointed at Jiang Chen's nose and cursed angrily.
"Jiang Chen, you traitor!"
"I didn't expect you to be so unscrupulous!"
Looking at Ban Cheng who was extremely angry, Jiang Che continued speaking without taking it seriously.
"We, the Qi State, came here with sincerity, but you schemed against us like this."
"Could it be that you, Duke Fuguo, are planning to go to war with our Qi State?"
Following Ban Cheng's series of uninterrupted output, Jiang Chen smiled slightly.
"Hahahaha, quite interesting, quite interesting."
"It seems that Qi is not like Ming!"
"Everyone says that Ming is stronger than Qi."
"However, it seems that Qi has been hiding its strength."
Jiang Chen stood up with a smile and clapped his hands.
Hearing Jiang Chen's words, Ban Cheng replied with a sneer.
"Humph, how can a thief like you guess the strength of our Qi State!"
As Ban Cheng said this, the guard beside him drew out the long sword from his waist.
"How dare you be so disrespectful to your lord!"
"Stand back and put away your sword. Did I ask you to draw your sword?!"
Jiang Chen scolded the guards, then turned to Ban Cheng and said with a smile.
"Old sir, I know that you are a famous scholar in Qi State."
" I also admire you very much, but please don't forget it!"
"It was your Qi State that first invaded my Xia State!!"
When saying this last sentence.
Jiang Chen directly drew out the long sword at his waist and chopped off a corner of the tea table in front of him.
After hearing what Jiang Chen said, Ban Cheng's face suddenly turned pale.
It has to be said that every word of Jiang Chen's words left Ban Cheng unable to defend himself!
This is what is meant by "every word hits the heart".
Seeing Ban Cheng's face turn pale, Jiang Chen did not stop and continued.
"Whoever offends the Xia Kingdom will be punished no matter how far away they are!"
As Jiang Chen said this, the guards beside him also echoed loudly.
"Whoever offends the Xia Kingdom will be punished no matter how far away they are!!"
"Whoever offends the Xia Kingdom will be punished no matter how far away he is!!!"
The sound spread beyond the tent and quickly infected every silver-armored guard.
Immediately afterwards, these words echoed throughout the sky of Juyu Pass.
"Whoever offends the Xia Kingdom will be punished no matter how far away they are!"
…
Hearing the deafening shouts beside his ears, Ban Cheng's legs, which were originally standing, went limp.
Then, Ban Cheng slumped down in the chair behind him.
Looking at the shocked envoys from Qi State, Jiang Chen raised his head.
A pair of eyes were like an eagle's, emitting a sharp gaze.
At the same time, an invisible pressure also rose from Jiang Chen's body.
For a moment, the envoys from Qi State in the tent were sweating profusely.
"Old man, sometimes, just talking about reason alone cannot protect everything !"
"The only way is to become stronger and keep the knife sharp enough."
"Only when you speak will people listen to you, and only then will they protect everything you want!"
Jiang Chen's words, like a thunderclap, resounded in Ban Cheng's ears.
Only then did Ban Cheng realize that he was facing not just a young man in a high position.
He is also a young man with great ambitions, extraordinary strategies and broad vision!
Even Ban Cheng could clearly feel a king-like aura from Jiang Chen!
That aura was even stronger than what he felt from Tian Min!
As a famous scholar in the Seven Kingdoms, Ban Cheng felt the urge to pay homage for the first time.
Thinking of this, Ban Cheng gritted his teeth.
He knew that his other purpose of coming to meet Jiang Chen this time would be impossible to achieve.
Looking at the envoys from Qi State, Jiang Chen snorted coldly.
"I am already tired today, everyone, please go back!"
"Someone, show the guest away."
At Jiang Chen's command, a group of silver-armored guards rushed in.
A group of silver-armored guards helped up the Qi envoys and dragged them out.
However, just as the Silver Armor Guard was about to drag Ban Cheng out.
Jiang Chen raised his hand, motioning the Silver Armor Guard to wait, and then spoke to Ban Cheng.
"Old sir, I hope you don't treat me as a fool!"
"I know everything Tian Min told you to do."
After saying that, Jiang Chen stood up and left the tent with Su Qingcheng.
Looking at Jiang Chen's departing back, Ban Cheng felt mixed emotions.
"turn out to be……"
"It turns out that he knows everything!"
…
The first contact between the Qi delegation and Jiang Chen ended in failure.
After returning to the camp outside Juyu Pass, Chen Xu roared loudly with an angry look on his face.
"Damn Jiang Chen, how dare he do this to us!"
"Jiang Chen treats us like this, it's obvious that he doesn't take us seriously."
"In my opinion, sir, we should report this matter to the Emperor."
"Tell the emperor to send troops to quickly get rid of this guy."
Chen Xu's words were quickly agreed upon by other envoys.
Listening to the noisy discussions of the crowd, Ban Cheng finally couldn't bear it anymore.
"Alright, everyone, shut up!"
"After getting rid of Jiang Chen, do you want to start a war again?!"
"In the last battle, tens of thousands of our Qi country's men died here!"
"If you start another war, how will the emperor face the people?!"
