arm voice: “The Chief Minister is the pillar of the Great Qin, so you must take good care of your health. The Great Qin cannot do without the Chief Minister.”Zhao Xuanji stood motionless, he stared at...Chapter 198: Eastern Osprey

"Congratulations, Your Highness! I wish you joy!"

At this time, Su Zhen Ting clasped his hands and said.

Li Chen looked at Su Zhenting and smiled, "General Su, what brings you joy"

Su Zhenning solemnly said: "The Taizu was a hero more than three hundred years ago. His wisdom and martial prowess are unmatched in China's thousands of years of history. Now that the Taizu's sword has reappeared in the world and returned to the prince's hands, it shows that the Taizu's protection of the prince is evident, symbolizing the great Qin Dynasty, which must be prosperous in both civil and military affairs, and create a brilliant future again!"

Listen, listen.

What is flattery

This is what you call flattery.

The truly advanced form of flattery is making those around you feel like it's the truth.

Even Li Chen, was said to be beaming with joy and delight.

Beside him, courtiers who still had no sense of propriety lined up. They couldn't possibly compete for the first chance to flatter him, and no one dared to challenge Su Zhenting. But that didn't stop them from adding to the praise. One by one, they bowed and shouted in unison, "Congratulations, Your Highness! With such blessings from our ancestors, the Great Qin Dynasty will surely achieve both literary and martial excellence!"

Li Chen burst into laughter and said, "Alright, everyone, please sit down."

With the Dayang Dragon Sparrow Sword sheathed, it lay horizontally on the desk, untouched by anyone. It was clear he truly cherished this blade.

Whether in its literal or symbolic meaning, it is what Li Chen desperately needs right now.

Just the phrase "blessed by the Taizu" is worth its weight in gold.

In a corner of the main hall, an unassuming official at the very end cast a furtive glance at a maidservant even less noticeable than himself outside. The maidservant came to pour him wine, and seizing this opportunity, the official whispered in a low voice, "Go quickly, inform the chief minister that Xian Chao has presented a Great Liang Dragon Sparrow, suspected to be connected to the treasures of the Taizu!"

The palace maid, unfazed, poured the wine and then quietly left Kangtai Hall with the wine pot in her hands.

Li Chen's gaze fell on Jin Xueyuan, and not only Li Chen, but everyone else's eyes were filled with anticipation.

The first gift from the Three Kingdoms during the Xian Dynasty was a ginseng plant that was 280 years old, a rare sight in the world.

The second option was to simply present the Taizu's sword. This sword not only held immense political significance, but it was also directly linked to the legendary treasure of Taizu.

Then, what will the last one be

Only Jin Xueyuan in the crowd's eyes remained calm as water. She slightly inclined her body and said, "The third national gift."

And then another person came out, holding an object also covered in silk.

But it's not a wooden platter anymore.

...and one that was over a foot high, cylindrical in shape, and whose nature was quite unclear. ...

Jin Xueyuan didn't beat around the bush, and directly lifted the silk brocade.

The brocade curtain lifted, revealing its contents to everyone's gaze.

To one's surprise, this was actually a living thing.

"This is a sculpture named Hai Dong Qing."

Jin Xueyuan said: "The Ben Cao Gang Mu (Compendium of Materia Medica) states that the golden eagle originates from Liaodong, and the most handsome one is called the Haidongqing. Since Liaodong borders Xianchao (a historical nomadic empire), there are also Haidongqing tribes active in Xianchao's territory. This bird is a divine species transformed into its current form. Its entire body is snow-white, soaring high above the sky and nesting on the peaks of snowy mountains. It's rare for ordinary people to even see it, let alone its haughty nature. Unless it is raised and tamed by an experienced falconer from hatching, once it develops self-awareness, it will starve itself to death even if captured."

“This creature is unparalleled in the world. The falconer who tamed it perished during a war after its taming was complete, and no one else can raise this kind of bird anymore. Its majesty allows it to easily kill a full-grown yak, and fighting jackals is child's play. Gifting it to Your Highness is truly deserving.”

When introducing Jin Xueyuan, the white sea eagle in the cage was spirited and lively. It looked around, glancing this way and that. In a flash, it opened its beak and let out a piercing, loud eagle cry that echoed through the heavens, deafening to hear.hen asked again.Sabaodao: "Zhou Ping'an went straight to the rebel stronghold after arriving in Xishan Province. We followed him, and he didn't refuse. However, since we need to be wary of the rebels,...
