Film and Television Daqing: Starting with the Heaven-Covering Technique and the Devouring Demon Art

They were genuinely afraid; Li Chengtian said he would kill them all.

Upon hearing Li Chengtian's words, he immediately knew what to do and knelt on the ground, saying, "Thank you for your mercy, Your Highness."

After hearing this, Li Chengtian waved his hand and said:

"Get up!"

After recounting the embezzlement, Li Chengtian gazed at the lake for a moment, lost in thought, and then said:

"I'm planning to send someone to Northern Qi to assist my forces in doing something. I wonder if any of you three have a candidate in mind."

Fan Jian, Chen Pingping, and Lin Ruofu exchanged glances, their expressions turning serious.

Fan Jian pondered for a moment and said:

"Your Highness, this choice must be carefully considered. The person sent to Northern Qi must not only have sufficient wisdom and strength, but also be utterly loyal to us."

A sly glint flashed in Chen Pingping's eyes, and he then cupped his hands and said:

"Your Highness, I recommend Fan Xian."

This person is a supervisor of the Supervisory Council, intelligent, quick-witted, and skilled in both literature and martial arts.

"I'm confident that this trip to Northern Qi will be a complete success."

Upon hearing this, Fan Jian's expression changed drastically, and he quickly stopped him:

"Your Highness, the trip to Northern Qi is of great importance. My son is still young and inexperienced, and his actions are inevitably immature."

I'm afraid he's not up to the task; I hope Your Highness will choose someone else to take charge."

Chen Pingping smiled slightly and said firmly:

"That's precisely why we need to learn from this experience."

How can young people grow if they don't go out and explore the world?

In my opinion, Fan Xian is the most suitable candidate.

Upon hearing this, Fan Jian cursed inwardly, but remained outwardly calm.

He glared at Chen Pingping, his eyes flashing with anger and dissatisfaction.

However, Chen Pingping ignored it and continued to smile.

Fan Jian turned to Li Chengtian helplessly, hoping he would change his mind.

But Li Chengtian seemed to have made up his mind, interrupting Fan Jian directly and saying, "Alright, then let's choose Fan Xian!"

After saying that, he waved his hand, his voice carrying a hint of authority:

"Guards, summon Fan Xian to the palace."

Upon hearing Li Chengtian's words, Han Diaosi immediately responded respectfully:

"Yes, Your Highness."

He then turned and left to convey Li Chengtian's orders.

Fan Jian frowned slightly after hearing Li Chengtian's words, as if he wanted to say something, but was gently stopped by Chen Pingping beside him.

In the end, he could only sigh helplessly and remain silent.

Lin Xiang sat there quietly, watching the scene with a faint smile on his face, without offering any opinion.

Not long after, Fan Xian hurriedly arrived at the Imperial Study.

His steps were slightly hurried, and he appeared somewhat nervous and reserved.

Upon entering the room, Fan Xian immediately knelt down and bowed to Li Chengtian, saying:

"Greetings to His Royal Highness the King of Qin."

Seeing Fan Xian's restraint, Li Chengtian's lips curled up slightly, revealing a barely perceptible smile.

He said softly, "Get up!" His tone was gentle and kind, trying to make Fan Xian relax.

The reason I summoned you here is to send you on a diplomatic mission to Northern Qi.

There's only one mission: kill! Anyone who provokes you or insults Daqing is to be killed.

And don't worry, this time when you go out, I'll arrange for my two Grandmaster bodyguards, Li Qian and Li Kun, to accompany you.

Make sure your first mission to Northern Qi goes smoothly without any mishaps.

When Fan Xian heard Li Chengtian say that he would send two Grandmasters to accompany him, he was no longer worried about the mission.

So he immediately responded:

"No problem, leave this to me!"

I'll definitely handle it perfectly for you, but there's one problem: if the other party is an ordinary citizen, should I still intervene?

Li Chengtian thought that if they conquered Northern Qi in the future, then Northern Qi would be considered part of their Great Qing's territory. It seemed a bit inappropriate to attack ordinary people.

Then he said:

"If they are civilians, just teach them a lesson, but don't kill them."

"After all, Northern Qi and Daqing will eventually be one family."

After hearing Li Chengtian's words, Fan Xian felt no more resentment. He knew he definitely couldn't kill civilians if Li Chengtian asked him to.

After giving his instructions, Li Chengtian turned to look at the lake and then waved to the four of them.

Upon seeing this, the Fan family and the four ministers slowly retreated to the Imperial Study, and then turned and walked out of the Imperial Study.

The four men left the imperial study. Fan Jia went straight to Chen Pingping, grabbed him by the collar, and said angrily:

"Why did you recommend Fan Xian to be an envoy to Northern Qi? Don't you know how dangerous this would be for Fan Xian?"

Upon seeing the enraged Fan Jian, Chen Pingping calmly said:

"What danger is there? Didn't you hear what His Highness just said? Are Grandmasters Li Qian and Li Kun accompanying you this time?"

Moreover, with the Tiger Guards and Black Riders by his side, and with His Highness's support in Northern Qi, do you think Northern Qi is capable of keeping Fan Xian with such a lineup?

What exactly are you worried about?

After hearing this, Fan Jian persisted, asking again:

"Then let me ask you, if it weren't Fan Xian, but yourself, would you go to Northern Qi?"

Chen Pingping glanced at the Fan family, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes, but still answered:

"If it were me, I would go too."

Upon hearing this, Fan Jia was even more enraged. He roared, "You knew perfectly well that Fan Xian's martial arts skills were weak, yet you still sent him to Northern Qi. You just wanted to kill him!"

Chen Pingping calmly looked at the Fan family and said:

"If you're so worried about Fan Xian, you should let him get some training."

Fan Jian was speechless after Chen Pingping's words. His eyes widened and the muscles on his face twitched slightly, but he eventually let go of Chen Pingping's collar.

His eyes revealed a sense of helplessness and resentment, as if he was dissatisfied with his inability to refute the argument.

Lin Xiang, who was standing to the side, frowned as he watched the two arguing, and then spoke up:

"Alright, Lord Fan, I understand your concerns about Fan Xian's safety."

However, what Dean Chen just said was not inappropriate.

With such a force heading to Northern Qi, even if Ku He himself were to lead the troops, he would likely find it difficult to gain any advantage.

After hearing their conversation, Fan Xian went to Fan Jian's side, gently took his arm, and comforted him, saying:

"Father, don't worry. With so many experts escorting us, even if I ask to spend the night with the Empress Dowager of Northern Qi, they won't dare to do anything to me."

Upon hearing this, Fan Jian flew into a rage, slapped Fan Xian hard on the back of the head, and scolded him:

"You brat, what nonsense are you spouting!"

Fan Xian touched the spot where he had been hit and explained with an innocent look:

"Father, I was just using an analogy. I didn't actually intend to sleep with the Empress Dowager of Northern Qi."

After hearing Fan Xian's explanation, Fan Jian decided not to pursue the matter further.

He flicked his sleeves, turned around, and walked out of the palace.

Seeing that his father was about to leave, Fan Xian decided to go out of the palace with him.

However, Chen Pingping, who was standing there, blocked his way.

Fan Xian looked at Chen Pingping with a puzzled expression, wondering why he was stopping him.

Chen Pingping smiled slightly and said to Fan Xian:

"Let's go! Come with me to the Overwatch Council first, I have something I want to tell you."

After saying that, he nodded to Lin Xiang and then left the room with Fan Xian.

Lin Xiang watched their departing figures and let out a hissing laugh.
