This feeling of frustration of having no place to vent his anger was almost driving him crazy.

"His Royal Highness Prince Gong is indeed His Royal Highness Prince Gong. The people around him are more powerful than the others. Bringing such a sharp-tongued girl to negotiate, it seems that the preparations have been done very well."

Just when Shangguan Xi was feeling so upset that she had no words to say, Jun Li walked in from the door.

He was wearing a black robe with golden patterns, and the totem of the Xichen royal family was embroidered on the cloak on his back.

Jun Li's appearance made Xiao Zhan's eyes turn cold. Jiang Xue's heart trembled, but she remained calm on the surface.

Jun Li walked up to Shangguan Xi, took the sword from him, and put it back into the guard's scabbard.

He patted his shoulder, motioned for him to sit down, and turned around and sat in the empty seat on his left.

He and Xiao Zhan looked at each other and sneered.

"Your Highness Prince Gong, I'm sorry, but today's negotiation opponent is not the Fourth Prince, but me."

Jun Li looked at Xiao Zhan with eyes full of hatred. He had deliberately asked Shangguan Xi to arrange this negotiation.

The purpose is to take this opportunity to severely humiliate Xiao Zhan.

Half a year ago, on the west gate tower, the Beiling soldiers forced him, the dignified Prince of Xichen, to jump off the building to escape.

In order to save him, his secret guards sacrificed their lives one after another, forcing him to evade pursuit in a desperate manner and finally return to Mingqi, the capital of Xichen, after a narrow escape.

Those who were chasing him were all following the information released by Linglong Pavilion.

And Jiang Xue, he found she was gone when he woke up, the secret guards told him before they died that Jiang Xue was captured by Beiling people, and soon after that, the news of her death came. He firmly believed that Jiang Xue's death must be related to Xiao Zhan.

As Prince Gong of Beiling, it should have been easy for him to save Jiang Xue. It must have been his inaction that led to Jiang Xue's death.

Out of a desire for revenge and hatred for Jiang Xue's death, Jun Li vowed to make Xiao Zhan pay the price for it.

"It seems that the news about Emperor Xichen's critical illness is true. Jun Li's attire clearly shows that he is the crown prince."

Si Ruochen knew the current affairs of the Ten Kingdoms very well. He recognized Jun Li's identity from the pattern on his body at a glance, and thus deduced the current situation of the Xichen royal family. He approached Jiang Xue and whispered to her in ventriloquism.

Jiang Xue looked at the man sitting on the stage with extremely cold eyes.

She hated Jun Li to the core, no matter in her past life or this life.

It was he who caused her to hurt the one she loved, forced her and Xiao Zhan to separate, and forced her to hide her identity so that she couldn't recognize him even if they met. How could she not want to kill him?

In Changle Mountain, the master had told her everything.

It turned out that since Liuli, she had fallen into the trap he had carefully set for her.

Liuli is Baimian's apprentice and has been trained in the Xichen Dark Guard since she was a child. It is unknown where Jun Li learned about her past life. He took advantage of her longing for her daughter and teamed up with Su Ming to plan Liuli's death and alienate her from Xiao Zhan.

Not only that, the five noble girls were also stuffed into Prince Gong's Mansion by Jun Li and Su Ming at the instigation of Emperor Beiling in order to monitor Xiao Zhan. And Ming Lang, who Bai Mian mentioned before his death, was simply a lie he made up to further tear apart her relationship with Xiao Zhan.

However, these were all foreshadowing. What made her hate him the most was that he asked Mo Xue to plant a heart-eating poison in her, causing her to lose her memory, recognize Jun Li as her husband in front of Xiao Zhan, and make him misunderstand that she had betrayed him.

This knife not only pierced Xiao Zhan's body, but also deeply pierced Jiang Xue's heart.

It was this knife that left an unhealable scar between her and Xiao Zhan.

"Jun Li, do you know that you still have one year left as a hostage in Beiling? You returned to the country without permission and violated the agreement between the two countries. This is already an act of breach of trust.

According to the diplomatic regulations, we in Beiling have the right to detain you and bring you back for severe punishment. In your current situation, what qualifications do you have to negotiate with me here? "Xiao Zhan curled his lips, openly mocking Jun Li's behavior of returning to the country without permission.

There was an agreement at the beginning of the establishment of the Ten Kingdoms that diplomatic agreements between countries must not be easily violated, otherwise the victim country has the absolute right to deal with the violator, and even the emperor dare not say anything.

It is precisely because of this agreement that the ten countries can restrain each other and the situation is relatively stable.

Jun Li returned to the country without permission before the hostage period was over, which was a breach of contract. Bei Ling did not take immediate action because he was distracted by the affairs of Bei Xi and Qian Kingdom and had no energy to care about him.

Xiao Zhan's mention of this matter in public now was a naked threat to him and also showed his contempt for him.

Jun Li's face suddenly turned gloomy. He hated any counterattack from Xiao Zhan and hated that Xiao Zhan had the upper hand.

This made him feel that he was being stepped on by this man, and his proud self-esteem was severely trampled upon.

Wisdom, power, women, he has never defeated Xiao Zhan in any aspect in this life.

Before Xiaoxue's death, he failed to prove that he was stronger than Xiao Zhan, and after her death, he was still suppressed by Xiao Zhan.

He was unwilling to accept this. For Jun Li, this was the greatest humiliation.

With murderous intent revealed in his anger, he suddenly snatched the guard's bow and arrow, aimed at Xiao Zhan's head, and pulled the bowstring to its full extent.

Seeing this, Tieyi's face changed and he immediately ordered his men to protect Xiao Zhan, holding swords and ready to fight at any time.

Xiao Zhan remained calm and looked at him coldly: "You should be very clear about the rules of military negotiations. If you really want to go to war, I am willing to accompany you to the end."

"Ha! Your Highness Prince Gong, look back. How many soldiers have you brought? How many do I have on my side? With such a small number of people, you want to compete with our 20,000-strong army? You are too confident." Jun Li glanced around, and the soldiers on the martial arts field gathered together and surrounded Xiao Zhan and his group.

"These few people are enough to deal with you." Xiao Zhan looked around and said fearlessly.

"It seems that the prince of Xichen needs to make up for his mistakes. As a future monarch, if he doesn't even know the basic rules, wouldn't he be laughed at? This battle is a contest between Beixi and Beiling, and the invitation to negotiate was also issued by Beixi.

Therefore, the protagonists of this negotiation should be Beixi and Beiling. The prince of Xichen is neither the one who issued the invitation nor the one who accepted the invitation. You are standing here without knowing why, taking over the main role and threatening the negotiating envoys. Don't you take Beixi seriously?

You said you were the negotiating opponent. It was really ridiculous. Are you the representative of Beixi? Does Beixi have to rely on you to speak? "

At the critical moment when the two sides were on the verge of a fight, Jiang Xue sneered, resounding throughout the venue.

Her words made Shangguan Xi, who was sitting in the middle, frown. She glanced at Jun Li who was drawing the bow, and dissatisfaction appeared on her face.

This girl was right. The protagonist of this negotiation was Beixi. Who was Junli? He was just a reinforcement, but he spoke before her.
