"In other words, I'm no longer of any use to you."
Xiao Tiannan stared intently at He Kun, missing no detail on his face. "So kill or spare me, do as you please," he said, "I can't fight back anyway."
He Kun looked at Xiao Tiannan in front of him, without a word.
Indeed, in terms of value, now is the right time to kill Xiao Tiannan.
But after a moment's thought, He Kun once again wore that trademark benevolent smile.
"My dear Brother Xiao, how could you say such things You have been so generous and open with me, sharing so much. How could I possibly betray your trust Do you truly believe me to be so despicable and shameless"
Xiao Tiannan was taken aback and said, "You're not going to kill me"
"He likes to make friends the most."
At the sound of this, Xiao Tiannan's first reaction was to puke.
He swore the two things he never wanted to hear in his life were: first, that his wife had given birth to a daughter; and second, that someone said they liked making friends the most.
After that, every time he heard it, he would beat the other person up.
"If he was a friend, how could he possibly kill his own friend"
He Kun said, taking out a stack of silver notes from his bosom and shoving them straight into Xiao Tiannan's arms.
He patted Xiao Tiannan on the shoulder and said with a smile: “These are the ones I promised you before, not one less. To make it easier for you to use, I specially exchanged them for smaller denominations of silver notes. Before leaving the borders of Great Qin, you can exchange them at any bank within the country, there will be absolutely no hindrance.”
Holding them in his hand, there were both new and old ones, but the face value was no more than one thousand taels. All of them were banknotes stamped with the seal of the Da Qin Empire's banknote issuing house, Xiao Tiannan was stunned.
He was even a little moved at this point.
"You... you didn't kill me, and you even gave me the money"
Xiao Tiannan thought the people of Qin were... tolerable.
At least this one seems okay for now.
He Kun let out a hearty laugh and said, "He (referring to himself) has made friends all over the world. These trinkets are nothing compared to that. As long as Brother Xiao likes them, after Brother Xiao returns to Liao, He will find a way to send you a sum of money every month."
At this point, Xiao Tiannan realized something.
He glared at He Kun, the previous touch of emotion vanished, gritting his teeth and snarling: "Are you asking me to be Zhao Xuanji of Liao!"
He Kun chuckled lightly: "Brother Xiao, your words are too heavy. To be frank, Zhao Xuanji, as the chief minister of the Qin Empire's cabinet, should be opposed by the prime minister of Liao..."
"You know what I mean, you want me to betray the Liao Kingdom!" Xiao Tiannan said angrily.
He Kun smiled and said, "Xiao brother, this isn't called selling out. You and I are friends, helping each other is the true meaning of friendship, isn't it"
"Anyway, whether you do it once or countless times, you're going to die. Conversely, doing it multiple times might not even lead to death. Look at Zhao Xuanji, isn't he living well Such a simple truth, if Brother Shi were still here, he would surely understand."
Xiao Tiannan's tone was heavy, but his grip on the silver note was even tighter.
This point was also noticed by He Kun, and with threats and enticements, he wasn't afraid of Xiao Tiannan refusing at all.
Taking a deep breath, Xiao Tiannan angrily stuffed the silver notes into his bosom and said, "For important news in the future, I will send someone to deliver it. You find someone to make contact with my people, but don't choose Yueya Pass."
"Why" He Kun asked.
"How many people at your Yueya Pass can be trusted" Xiao Tiannan sneered.to saySu Zhen-ting was full of righteous indignation, staring at the officials who were stunned by his outburst. He roared, "You say that His Highness has been killing court officials indiscriminately...
