Chapter 98.2

Afterward, with the silver coin or two he had, he bought himself a new set of clothes and treated himself to a good meal, then set out to find someone.

At this moment, without Lin Beifans interference, the people brought by the Ninth Prince finally escape their predicament and converge in the capital city, where they meet the Ninth Prince.

The Ninth Prince was extremely surprised: Is everyone alright?Updated from novelb(i)n.c(o)m

Your Highness, we are all fine!

After we got separated that day, we kept walking and stopping in the mountains, but we just couldnt find our way out!

It wasnt until yesterday that we finally broke through the barrier!

When we tell others that we encountered a ghost hitting the wall, no one believes us!

Your Highness, I almost thought I wouldnt see you again!

The Ninth Prince was very relieved: Its good that everyone is safe!

And what about you, Your Highness? Why have you changed your clothes? Are you alright?

The Ninth Princes complexion seemed somewhat unnatural: This prince is naturally fine as well. Those are matters of the past, lets not speak of them!

Everyone could tell that the Ninth Prince clearly had a story.

However, since he was unwilling to talk about it, they didnt press further.

Your Highness, what shall we do next?

Next

The Ninth Princes eyes sharpened: We shall visit the Great Xia Emperor in the name of the Ninth Prince of the Great Li Dynasty!

His entourage had all returned, bolstering his confidence once more.

Thereupon, the Ninth Prince donned his python robe, tidied up his hair and appearance, and restored his noble and elegant demeanor.

He was determined to seek revenge and wash away the humiliation!

He wanted to crush Lin Beifan with a brand-new image, to show him who the true sovereign was, who was truly worthy of his senior sister Chai Yuxin!

Within the Great Xia imperial palace.

Report to Your Majesty, the Ninth Prince of the Great Li Dynasty, Li Tianqiong, has arrived to pay his respects and is now waiting outside the palace gate!

Lin Beifan smiled, Still harboring treacherous intentions, eh? Summon him in!

Summon His Highness, the Ninth Prince Li Tianqiong of the Great Li Dynasty, to enter the palace for an audience!

The Ninth Prince, leading his entourage, strode into the imperial palaces grand hall with a bold and imposing manner.

The civil and military officials of the Great Xia were all captivated by his elegance and demeanor, privately acknowledging that he was indeed a prince from a dynasty, possessing a royal bearing nurtured from a young age that was simply different.

Of course, it is I!

The Ninth Prince declared with his head held high and chest puffed out. As the Ninth Prince of the Great Li Dynasty, my status is extremely noble, my position powerful and influential, far superior to you. Only I am worthy of senior sister!

Someone burst into hearty laughter.

What are you laughing at? the Ninth Prince asked, puzzled.

Obviously, Im laughing at your overestimation of yourself, your ignorance of your own limitations! a young official stepped forward.

And who might you be? the Ninth Prince demanded angrily.

I am the Supervisor of the Ministry of War for the Great Xia, Cao Cao! Cao Cao replied.

You, a mere Supervisor, dare to mock me? the Ninth Prince raged.

Because even I, as a mere Supervisor, can see more clearly than you!

Cao Cao declared loudly. You claim that His Majesty is inferior to you, but I must ask you, in what way are you even comparable to His Majesty?

You! The Ninth Prince trembled with rage.

He had been rebuked by a mere Supervisor and felt a murderous rage.

But Cao Cao was not afraid and shouted loudly: I ask you, how many soldiers do you command, how many Innates serve you?

I have five thousand household troops, and 5 Innates serve me! the Ninth Prince declared loudly.

Cao Cao laughed heartily: Our Emperor commands 800,000 troops, and 7 Innates attend to him before and after the saddle! In terms of military strength, you are far behind our Emperor!

You! The Ninth Prince was left speechless.

I ask you, how much land do you have, and how many subjects do you govern? Cao Cao asked loudly.

The Ninth Prince held up a finger: My palace has about 100,000 square kilometers of land, with over a million subjects!

Cao Cao laughed out loud again: Our Emperors territory extends over 600,000 square kilometers, and the number of subjects has long since surpassed 9 million. Youre not even fit to carry the Emperors shoes!

You! The Ninth Princes eyes blazed with fury.

I ask you, what is your annual fiscal income? How much financial power can you wield? Cao Cao continued to inquire.

My palaces annual financial income is about one million taels of silver, and currently, we have over three million taels available for use, wealthy enough to rival a nation! the Ninth Prince said with a hint of pride.

This financial income ranked among the top even among all the princes.

However, Cao Cao shook his head with a smile and said, Thats far too little! Do you know how much the annual income of our Great Xias national treasury is? And how much financial power is available for use now?
