Old Man Lu and the other two finally stumbled back to their secret residence.
However, when they pushed open the door, they were horrified to find a handsome man in a white robe sitting on a chair in the living room. A man holding a sword was standing motionless beside him. He was obviously his bodyguard.
When he saw Old Man Lu and the other two, the handsome man revealed a faint smile and said in a gentle voice,
"Old Man Lu, I've been waiting for you for a long time!!”
"Hey! Who are you? Why are you so rude? You actually called Uncle Lu Old Man Lu. Don't you know how to respect the old and love the young!!”
Tian Ming was the first to speak, staring at Ying Zheng with an indignant and indignant look.
Old Man Lu was the person who treated him the best in the world. He naturally would not allow others to disrespect Old Man Lu, not to mention that Old Man Lu was injured now.
"This old man greets the King of Qin. May the King of Qin live forever!!”
Ying Zheng did not say anything, but Old Man Lu hurriedly pulled Tian Ming and Xiao Li to kneel before Ying Zheng. At the same time, Old Man Lu hurriedly apologized,"
"It's all this old man's fault for not being able to discipline Tianming properly, causing him to offend Lord Qin. I beg Your Highness to forgive this vile person and spare Tianming. If Your Majesty insists on punishing Tianming, this old man is willing to bear the responsibility.”
"You are Tianming?"
Ying Zheng ignored Old Man Lu's pleas for mercy, and instead turned his gaze to Jing Tianming, who was now trembling in fear of his true identity, and had already turned into a wooden statue.
"Yes…Yes, Lord Qin King…I'm Tianming…”
Jing Tianming's arrogance had completely disappeared, and he knelt on the ground while trembling. He raised his eyes and looked at Ying Zheng with reverence and curiosity, wondering what his future would be like.
Would he kill her if she contradicted him just now? How would he punish her? Would he implicate Uncle Lu…?
Tian Ming was extremely nervous, and beads of cold sweat dripped down his forehead.
Just as Old Man Lu was begging and waiting for his judgment at dawn, Ying Zheng's gentle voice rang out,"
"Tianming, you're very brave and have a good name. How about it? Do you want to become a soldier of Great Qin and work for me?”
"Your Majesty, do you want me to be a soldier? To be your soldier?"
Jing Tianming, who had been feeling extremely fearful and uneasy, looked at Ying Zheng in disbelief after hearing his words, thinking that there was something wrong with his ears.
"Of course! You didn't hear wrongly, I want you to be a soldier!!”
Ying Zheng nodded affirmatively, then clapped his hands while Jing Tianming's face was filled with excitement. Zhong Limei, who was clad in silver armor, walked in and knelt before him,"
"This is Zhongli Mei, the general guarding the city. How about you follow him in the future?”
"Tianming thanks the king for his kindness, thanks the king for not killing me!!”
Jing Tianming immediately knelt down and thanked Bain with great excitement and joy. At the same time, he suppressed the excitement in his heart, looked at Ying Zheng carefully and said,"
"Lord Qin, I wonder if your soldiers can eat chicken drumsticks other than eating their fill and wearing new clothes?”
" Haha!"
Ying Zheng smiled, looked at Jing Tianming, whose face was filled with anticipation, and said to Zhong Limei,"
"Zhongli Mei, give Tianming as many chicken drumsticks as he wants in the future! "He's not old, so take care of him. It'll be good for the men of Great Qin to be able to kill enemies on the battlefield in the future!!”
"Tianming, thank you for your kindness. Long live Your Highness the King of Qin!!”
Jing Tianming once again knelt down and thanked him excitedly. From the time he was sensible until now, no one had treated him so well except for Old Man Lu.
As long as he thought of Ying Zheng's words, Jing Tianming, who had never been able to get enough to eat or warm himself, would be filled with excitement. Finally, he could eat the drumsticks that he had always dreamed of.
At the same time, Jing Tianming secretly swore in his heart that he would do his best to protect the country and serve the King of Qin!!
Poor guy, he didn't know that he wasn't from the State of Qin.
"Zhongli Mei, accept the order!"
Zhongli Mei hurriedly cupped his fists and accepted the order. He stood up and was about to leave with Tianming, but Tianming, who had just stood up, knelt down in front of Ying Zheng again and begged,"
"Lord Qin, Uncle Lu and Sister Xiao Li are both good people. I don't know why your army wants to capture them, but I beg you to let them go!”
"If I wanted to kill him, do you think your Uncle Lu would still be kneeling here alive? The reason why he was injured was definitely because he attacked first, right, Old Man Lu?”
Ying Zheng smiled and continued,"
"I came here to save your Uncle Lu. Don't worry, your Uncle Lu will return tomorrow at most. When the time comes, you have to go and see him as soon as possible.”
"Tianming, Uncle Lu is fine. Now that you've become a soldier, you have to do your best to serve Great Qin and the Great King. Don't worry about Uncle Lu, go.”
After hearing Old Man Lu's words, Tianming slowly left Old Man Lu's secret residence under the lead of Zhongli Mei.
Looking at Jing Tianming who was gradually disappearing, a strange light flashed across Ying Zheng's eyes…
Then, Ying Zheng turned his gaze to Old Man Lu and Xiao Li, who were still kneeling on the ground, and said with a smile,"
"Then Old Man Lu, Xiao Li, I've been waiting for you here for a long time. I hope you won't disappoint me.”
Old Man Lu's eyes flickered, and he finally said,"
"This old man doesn't know what Lord Qin is talking about…"
"What about you, Xiao Li?"
Ying Zheng did not care about Old Man Lu's final stubborn resistance. Instead, he turned his gaze to the Loulan girl, Xiao Li, who had been silent all this while,"
"Don't you know what I'm talking about?”
Xiao Li raised his head and looked at Ying Zheng with a pair of watery eyes, then said slowly with a sobbing tone,"
"Lord Qin, please let Uncle Lu and I go and let us return to Loulan. Loulan is in danger. If Xiao Li doesn't return to Loulan with the dragon soul in time, Loulan will disappear into the desert forever. Lord Qin, please let us go.”
"Ignorant!"
Faced with Xiao Li's begging, Ying Zheng immediately sneered and said,"
"Did you two think I was lying to you? Or do you think you can escape from the impenetrable encirclement with that tunnel of yours? If that's the case, why would I still keep those good-for-nothing soldiers?”
"The reason why I allowed you to escape so easily was to make others think that you were still in the encirclement and that I had been waiting for you for a long time.”
Old Man Lu's heart trembled. He subconsciously looked at the young girl, Xiao Li, and said,"
"Since the King of Qin already knows about Lou Lan's secret and has captured the old man and Xiao Li, I wonder what the King of Qin wants by taking such great pains to bring the old man and Xiao Li here?”
Ying Zheng's eyes shone brightly as he looked at Xiao Li and Old Man Lu, who were kneeling on the ground, and said slowly,"
"I want to make a deal with you, a deal that will allow Loulan to live in eternal peace…”
