Hearing Ying Zheng's third request, Li Si, Meng Tian, and the others all sucked in a breath of cold air. They had already guessed what kind of ending Xu Fu would face tomorrow!
"Your Majesty…will I go to Pei County after Xu Fu is done?”
Wang Ben looked at Ying Zheng and asked.
Ying Zheng shook his head and said,
"No need! The immortal said that Xu Fu doesn't know yao arts. Moreover, there is Inner History Meng beside me. I don't think Xu Fu can hurt me at all! As for that Liu Ji…"
As Ying Zheng spoke, his eyes narrowed and he said,
"Fan Kuai and Liu Ji are old acquaintances! In the Immortal Land, Fan Kuai betrayed Liu Ji's information due to my pressure! However, once we return to Great Qin, Fan Kuai will definitely tell Liu Ji what happened in the Immortal Realm…"
At this point, Wang Ben finally understood what was going on, so he said,
"I understand! I will bring my men tonight and bring Liu Ji back to Xianyang!”
Ying Zheng nodded and continued,
"In addition, Xiao He is a talent! When you go to Pei County this time, you will bring along my decree to let Xiao He come to Xianyang to be conferred the title!”
After hearing Ying Zheng's words, Wang Ben bowed again and said,
"Here!"
After giving out his orders, Ying Zheng waved his hand at the crowd, signaling them to leave!
Li Si brought the sweet potatoes and potatoes to the Chief Physician, while Wang Ben and Wang Jian went back to Pei County.
Fu Su brought the Paper Making Technique that Li Si had given him back to study it carefully…
Meanwhile, in Xu Fu's residence, Xu Fu's disciple was burning the fire beside the pill furnace, while Xu Fu was adding the last few doses of medicine into the pill furnace!
"Master, this cauldron of medicinal pills is about to be completed! Do you think His Majesty will let us leave?”
The disciple raised his head and asked Xu Fu as he lit the fire.
Xu Fu raised the corners of his mouth and said with a smile,
"Your Majesty trusts me so much that I have specially refined so many pills for you. Tomorrow, I will lie to Your Majesty about the appearance of the Three Immortals Mountain outside the East Sea. Your Majesty, who is eager to seek immortality, will naturally agree to let me lead the team to sea!”
The disciple nodded his head in a half-understanding manner and asked,
"But Master, after we leave Great Qin and leave the sea, where should we go? If we leave now, we definitely won't be able to return to Great Qin in the future…"
Xu Fu glared at his disciple and said,
"Going anywhere is better than staying in Great Qin and waiting for death! Are you stupid? There would always be a place to go beyond the vast sea! I don't believe that I can't live without Great Qin!”
As Xu Fu spoke, they smelled the rich medicinal fragrance that gradually permeated the air. Their eyes immediately lit up, and they said in unison,
"The pill is done!"
……
The next day, Xu Fu woke up early in the morning and bathed in the incense. He dressed himself up in a white robe that fluttered in the wind. Then, he brought the medicinal pills with him and entered the palace with his disciples to offer them!
Just as Xu Fu was leading his disciples to the palace gates, a eunuch walked towards them!
The eunuch looked at Xu Fu and was instantly amused. He said,
"Yo! Immortal Master Xu, I was going to invite you to my residence. I didn't expect you to come so early!"
Xu Fu was stunned and asked,
"Eunuch, could it be that His Majesty is seriously ill?”
The eunuch said mysteriously,
"No! His Majesty said that today is the day that Immortal Master Xu will offer medicine to His Majesty, so he specially asked me to come out and invite you. Since Immortal Master Xu has come by himself, I can save my effort! Immortal Master Xu, please?"
Looking at the mysterious and malicious smile on the eunuch's face, Xu Fu had an ominous premonition. He glanced at the disciple beside him and finally braced himself to follow the eunuch into the palace!
Soon, Xu Fu and his disciples arrived at Ying Zheng's main hall!
The morning court session was in progress in the hall, and the civil and military officials were lined up neatly on both sides!
Ying Zheng sat on the throne with a dignified look on his face, staring at Xu Fu as he walked into the palace. He did not say a word, and his face was dark and gloomy, which made Xu Fu's hair stand on end!
Xu Fu felt uneasy at the moment, his heart thumping wildly. He forced himself to remain calm, pretending to be a master, and walked to the center of the hall. He bowed slightly to Ying Zheng and said,
"Xu Fu greets Your Majesty!"
Seeing that Xu Fu was still acting like a supreme expert even at the brink of death, Ying Zheng's lips curled into a sarcastic smile as he said coldly,
"Xu Fu! Have you finished refining the pill you refined for me?”
All the officials and ministers in the hall remained silent, looking at Ying Zheng in surprise, then at Xu Fu!
A bad feeling arose in their hearts!
Because in the past, Ying Zheng had always respected Xu Fu and treated him with courtesy. Every time he addressed Xu Fu, he would call him Immortal Master Xu!
Why was he calling Xu Fu by his name today?
Moreover, his tone was a little strange?
Actually, it was not surprising that these ministers were surprised. This was because other than Wang Jian, Li Si, Meng Tian, and the other ministers who had been there, the other ministers knew nothing about what had happened in the live broadcast space!
Xu Fu, who was standing in the middle of the hall, felt that something was wrong with Ying Zheng's tone, and his heart could not help but beat even faster. He squeezed out a fake smile on his face and said respectfully to Ying Zheng,
"Your Majesty! Xu Fu was always worried about His Majesty's health, so he had been refining pills for His Majesty day and night for the past three days! Fortunately, hard work paid off! Xu Fu has refined the medicinal pills that Your Majesty needs!”
Hearing this, Ying Zheng sneered and said,
"Oh? I'm very touched that Immortal Master Xu is so concerned about my health! Quickly show me the pill you refined for me!”
Xu Fu hurriedly took out a medicine box from his bosom, but before he could hand it over to Ying Zheng's eunuch, Ying Zheng suddenly shouted,
"No need! Immortal Master Xu, please try the pill you refined for me in front of me and my beloved ministers!”
As soon as Ying Zheng finished speaking, Xu Fu, who was standing in the middle of the hall, was shocked. His body trembled, and the medicine box in his hand fell to the ground, along with the medicinal pills!
