The Prodigal Son of the Empire

Wang Kang said: "You must know my purpose, what I want is Shouchun..."

"I know."

Xiang Qi opened his mouth and said: "So I will surrender and guarantee that your army, King of War, will pass through unimpeded. Not only that, I am also willing to hand over all my troops to you to fight with you."

"I have sent an order that the army will be fully assembled within three days."

"How many troops are there?"

"About one hundred thousand."

"One hundred thousand?"

Wang Kang raised his eyebrows and said, "Are you kidding? Rong is also a top-ranked vassal state. How could it be possible that it only has more than [-] troops?"

"Exactly!"

Xiang Qi explained: "Because of the proximity to the capital, we are greatly restricted in the deployment of soldiers in Rongguo. If there are too many troops, Shouchun will feel uneasy, and under the current situation, he cannot afford to support them."

"Your Great Chu court has released the military restriction order, and all the princes and kings are recruiting troops wantonly, don't you?"

"No, why am I recruiting soldiers? Is it to resist you? I don't mean it at all. It's also to help the court, and there is no need for it, so I didn't force the conscription. Besides, the forced conscription is to increase public grievances. I will not do this kind of thing. Do……"

Another seamless explanation, more like an excuse thought up in advance.

"Ok."

Wang Kang said: "Since you have decided to surrender, I won't say anything more, but there are some things that need to be agreed in advance, and I will immediately send people to inspect all over your country..."

"That's unnecessary."

Xiang Qi opened his mouth and said: "I've already done this, and now the whole Great Chu has spread, I have no turning back, you still don't believe me?"

"This is not a matter of believing or not, but a necessary procedure."

Wang Kang asked back: "What? Do you have an opinion?"

"No no."

"In addition, all your troops will be requisitioned by me, and I will immediately prepare sufficient military supplies for me."

Wang Kang said: "In your words, we are now grasshoppers on a rope. Helping me is helping yourself. What do you think?"

"King Rong?"

Xiang Qi obviously didn't expect Wang Kang to make such a request.

He didn't react for a moment.

"Don't try to fool me. I will send someone to supervise these things. I hope you can cooperate."

"By the way, you still have the inner treasury. You are the Longevity King of Dachu, and you should have a lot of treasures in savings. Can you take me to watch it?"

Xiang Qi's face shook.

He said: "I have sincerely surrendered, isn't it a bit inappropriate for you to do this?"

"Hey, we're all on our own now."

Wang Kang patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "In Youwei City, but you said, we don't distinguish between each other, and give me all yours, isn't that right?"

"Warlord, even though that's the case, isn't this too much!"

At this moment, a nearly middle-aged man beside Xiang Qi interjected, his face was extremely ugly, and he glared at Wang Kang.

This person is Xiang Qi's eldest son, Xiang Boshan.

If Xiang Qi dies, he will take over the throne.

"Excessive, you say I am excessive?"

Wang Kang said calmly: "You should be clear that I could have grabbed it directly..."

"Apologize, quickly apologize to the King of War!"

Xiang Qi scolded hurriedly.

"Father?"

Xiang Boshan was still full of resentment.

"Apologize!"

Xiang Qi didn't give in at all, Xiang Boshan didn't know why, and finally gave in.

"My son doesn't know the general idea, so don't be fooled!"

Xiang Qi laughed and said: "You don't need to say that I have prepared it for you. To tell you the truth, there are really many good things in my inner warehouse. I will take you there right away."

Next, Xiang Qi really brought Wang Kang to Neiku!

As expected of being the King of Longevity, he had quite a lot of savings.

Boxes of gold piled up, I don't know how much there is, but this is still worthless, celebrity calligraphy and paintings, antique objects, these are the real priceless things.

"This jade bottle, is it from the previous dynasty?"

Wang Kang casually picked up a jade bottle and looked at it.

"My lord has good eyesight. This bottle is indeed quite old. If you want it, you can take it away."

Xiang Qi said, "But this bottle..."

"I happen to be short of a vase for arranging flowers, and this happens to be the right one, thank you King Rong."

Wang Kang interrupted him by speaking, and clearly saw Xiang Qi's face tremble.

However, this is just the beginning.

"Wow, is this the painting of plum blossoms painted by Sheng Yang Wenjian?"

"After Yang Wenjian passed away, this painting of plum blossoms has long been lost. I didn't expect it to be in your hands. I like painting the most in my life. Can you lend me a few more days to enjoy it?"

"Don't worry, I don't want it, I just read it, and I'll return it to you when I've seen enough."

"Thank you King Rong."

"Hey, this is Hu Xingtao's original handwriting. It's really worth a thousand dollars. I like calligraphy the most in my life. Can you lend me a few days to copy it?"
