Kabanata 143: Chapter 101: Why Is Empress Dowager Zhao Ji So Afraid of Me? (Part 3)

"General, may I discuss a deal with you?"

"You've already saved Concubine Zhao. If you let me go, I can give you Ten Thousand Gold Pieces. Whatever you desire, I can provide."

Guo Kai, pinned to the ground, looked up at Zhao Feng with a desperate expression. As a cunning man, he understood that this was his last chance to escape. If Zhao Feng were to let him go, he could flee to Wei. Even if he failed his mission, he could at least save his life; even upon returning home, the King of Zhao would not blame him. But if he fell into Qin's hands, it would be the end. Having personally kidnapped the mother of the King of Qin, he could already imagine the King's thunderous wrath. If he were truly captured and brought back to Qin, he would surely die a terrible death.

Hearing Guo Kai's words, Zhao Feng approached him and raised a hand. The two trusted aides holding Guo Kai down immediately helped him to his feet.
