631 A Gentleman Would Die for His Confidant
“Elder Huang, there’s no need to be so polite. Come and sit down quickly. It just so happens that Chen Tao has prepared this table of breakfast, and it’s quite a large amount. Also, this must be the talent you’ve just discovered, right?”
Li Xiang looked at the two of them with a smile. In fact, most of his attention was on Han Sui.
Even though he looked ordinary, one could tell he was extraordinary from his aura.
The most impressive thing was that even when he saw the Country Lord, he maintained his calm, his expression neither humble nor arrogant.
Li Xiang was now the Country Lord with hundreds of millions of people. He was also the Lord of Dawn, who had confirmed his divine name. With his cultivation in the divine realm and his status as a bonus, he was constantly emitting an extremely powerful aura.
If he were to release his aura, no ordinary person would be able to stand firmly in front of him.
However, that person could keep a straight face, which was already not simple.
Moreover, to be brought here by Huang Chengyan immediately, he was definitely not ordinary.
“Haha, Country Lord, I can eat this meal in peace. This person is a great talent that the Lord needs the most right now.” When Huang Chengyan heard that, he found a seat and sat down with a smile on his face.
“Oh, I wonder who this is…” Li Xiang’s eyes flashed with curiosity.
“I’m Han Sui. I came from a background in political strategists. Greetings to Country Lord. I’m here to recommend myself.”
Han Sui wasn’t afraid at all. He took a step forward and cupped his hands.
“Han Sui, self-recommendation? You’re the heir of the political strategists.”
A strange light flashed in Li Xiang’s eyes. The first thing that came to his mind was a great talent named Mao Sui, who had appeared in Chinese history. There was even a sentence derived from him: ‘Mao Sui recommended himself’.
He was an outstanding heir of the political strategists. During the Warring States, he was good at political strategies, was eloquent, and created huge impacts, influencing the major forces of various countries. His Art of Political Strategies was almost at the point of perfection, and he was most famous for his glib tongue.
Although the person in front of him was not Mao Sui, his actions were similar. It was even possible that Han Sui’s identity in his world was identical to that of Mao Sui in his world. The only difference was their names, but in fact, the core was the same person.
“It’s Han Sui.” The young man nodded.
“Good! Good! Good! Sure enough, heaven and earth were working together. Mr. Han, please take a seat!”
Li Xiang waved his hand with a smile, indicating Han Sui to sit down.
A top talent like the heir of the political strategists was not inferior to any top advisers. In fact, he was even more useful and was worth more than a million troops. He also didn’t expect that a great talent like Han Sui would come forward to recommend himself.
Han Sui didn’t stand on ceremony. Since they hadn’t officially confirmed their relationship as rulers and subjects, he immediately found a seat and sat down.
“Come, let’s not talk about anything else. Let’s try the taste of this Six-flavored Crystal Steamed Cake first. This is a delicacy that Chen Tao meticulously cooked. If you want to eat it, you have to eat it while it’s still hot.” Li Xiang said with a smile.
Eating was the most important thing in the world.
All other things should come after the stomach is filled.
They didn’t talk about work immediately but only spoke about trivial matters.
Before they knew it, the food on the table had been swept clean.
“Hall Master Chen’s cooking skills are so shocking and nostalgic every time I try them. It’s the ultimate enjoyment.” Huang Chengyan sighed.
“I have the Art of Political Strategies, which can help the Country Lord eliminate hidden dangers and win time for development.” After Han Sui finished eating, he stood up slowly and bowed to Li Xiang.
That was already an act of willingness to serve under his command.
“Alright. Just let me know what you need!”
Li Xiang nodded without hesitation and asked.
His tongue was his most powerful weapon for a man like Han Sui.
“No need. I just need the Lord to give me the right to make a promise to the foreign races, to act first and report later. When dealing with foreign races, any chance will be gone in a flash. I must have the power to make decisions.” Han Sui made a request without any trace of politeness.
The right to make promises and treaties for the Kingdom of Dawn could unknowingly sell the entire country away if they were not careful. It would be effective if they signed a humiliating treaty that had been certified by the system.
That right was not small.
It could even be said that the right to make arbitrary decisions was comparable to Li Xiang’s decision. In the outside world, he would have the right to decide everything in the Kingdom of Dawn.
Even Huang Chengyan’s expression changed slightly at that request.
Once that right was abused, even if the Kingdom of Dawn didn’t acknowledge it afterward, the country would be paying the price with its reputation. As long as they made a promise, the Kingdom of Dawn wouldn’t easily break it unless necessary.
Therefore, that kind of right was not ordinary. If it were not used well, it would harm the interests of the Kingdom of Dawn and even the Human race.
When Li Xiang heard that, he also muttered to himself, and his eyes flickered. After a moment, he nodded and agreed, “Alright, I can give you the right to make arbitrary decisions. I hope you won’t let me down. As long as you can stir up the foreign races’ conflict and let them have no time to care about other things, I will welcome you when you return. I will reward you with merits.”
Li Xiang wouldn’t easily hand over that power to an ordinary person. It was a double-edged sword and could cause great harm to himself at any time.
However, Han Sui was different. Han Sui’s character had been proven by history, and it was an exchange of political strategies with foreign races. He might not believe in other things, but his identity as a human could not be denied. As long as he was sane, he wouldn’t harm the interests of the Human race by joining the foreign races.
No matter how much the foreign races regarded humans as their own, there was an unbreakable barrier between them, and they could not trust them completely. If he really wanted to join the foreign races, he could only say that there was something wrong with his brain or that there were other reasons.
No matter how powerful the foreign races were, it also couldn’t be compared to making the Human race more powerful.
He believed that Han Sui would never betray the Human race. It wasn’t an internal conflict within the Human race, so Li Xiang trusted him.
The quality of political strategists was also trustworthy. He believed Han Sui would not harm the interests of the Kingdom of Dawn.
“Thank you for your trust, Country Lord! I won’t let you down!”
Han Sui’s heart trembled. He knew very well that few sovereigns would dare to hand over such rights to their subjects. It was simply possible to destroy a country. That kind of right had already violated an Emperor’s authority.
This time, he had only brought it up subconsciously. He didn’t expect Li Xiang to really agree.
The feeling of being trusted made his heart burn with passion, and the thought of ‘a gentleman would die for his confidant’ appeared in his mind. How could he not risk his life to serve the country when entrusted with it?
“I believe that Mr. Han will not let me down! Although we’ve gone on a killing spree this time, in reality, it’s also a huge disaster for the Kingdom of Dawn. The hostile foreign races won’t let us rise so easily and give us the opportunity to grow. Whether or not we can get this opportunity it’s all up to you.” Li Xiang took a deep breath and said in a deep voice.
