Chapter 34
After a round of flattery, they exchanged pleasantries.
The Tang diplomatic mission entered Xianyang City.
Under Li You's hospitality, they went to the place where Great Qin was welcoming them.
An empty Imperial Residence!
It could be said that this kind of reception was already the highest.
Even though the Great Qin Dynasty did not send anyone from the royal family to receive Li Xuan and the others, they still sent the Prime Minister, the head of the civil officials, and the General, the head of the military officials, to welcome them together.
No matter how one looked at it-
The Great Qin Dynasty had already done their best.
In the Imperial Residence.
With the help of the maids who took care of him, Li Xuan put on a Prince's robe.
The python robe was considered his formal attire, and it was also an official robe.
He walked out of the room.
Xu Ji and Chang Ping, who were guarding outside the door, came forward and said,
"Your Highness!"
At this moment, the two of them looked at Li Xuan and could not help but respect him from the bottom of their hearts.
As the saying goes, a Buddha depends on his golden clothes, and a man depends on his clothes.
Li Xuan, who was usually dressed in white and holding a folding fan, was like a graceful young master and a scholar.
And when he fought with a sword, it was like a sword immortal descending to the mortal world.
However, regardless of whether it was the elegant young master or the invincible sword immortal's appearance.
They could not compare to the current Li Xuan...
Wearing a python robe, the noble aura of a natural emperor, who was the stomach of the royal family, assaulted his face.
As a result, Xu Ji and Chang Ping subconsciously bent their bodies even further. They lowered their heads and did not dare to look at Li Xuan's face. They had an additional feeling of caution, completely different from their usual casual state.
This was the subconscious action of a normal person when facing a superior.
"Are the preparations for the banquet ready?”
Li Xuan's gaze swept over, and with a natural dignity, he looked at Xu Ji.
"This time, this isn't the Great Tang. If anything goes wrong, this king will twist your head off and kick it like a ball!”
Next, it was time for the Great Tang diplomatic mission and Great Qin's official banquet.
This time, it wasn't as simple as the last time in Chang 'an where he received the Han Dynasty's diplomatic mission.
After all, even though he had taken it seriously that time…
But the Great Han was ultimately at odds with the Great Tang, so no matter how much importance they attached to it, it would rise to the very top.
This time, Ying Zheng had sent the head of all the officials to the stage, which was enough to prove how much importance Great Qin placed on the arrival of the Tang diplomatic mission.
Even if it was just on the surface, as long as the other party showed an attitude of importance.
They couldn't be rude at all!
When one was outside, one would not only represent an individual, but also the face and dignity of a country!
No kidding-
If anything went wrong, Li Xuan would definitely twist Xu Ji's head off and kick it like a ball!
"Your Highness, don't worry. Everything is ready.”
With a serious gaze, Xu Ji said,
"If there's a mistake, this lowly official will die as an apology. I don't dare to dirty your highness 'hands!”
He nodded in satisfaction.
Li Xuan was still very satisfied with Xu Ji, this lackey.
He was efficient and dignified.
Most importantly…
This guy had a talented sister who was famous throughout the Great Tang!
Li Xuan had also seen the portrait before. It was called a peerless beauty with an outstanding bearing.
She was one of the candidates that the virtuous imperial consort had chosen for him.
"Alright."
With a serious gaze, Li Xuan said,
"This king has been invited by the First Emperor to meet him first before attending the banquet with him. Before that, I will leave the diplomatic mission to you to handle.”
Hearing this.
Xu Ji cupped his hands with a serious expression.
"Here!"
Although Ying Zheng's meeting with Li Xuan alone seemed to be against the rules, the imperial power was greater than the heavens.
There was nothing wrong with Ying Zheng doing this.
It just so happened that Li Xuan also wanted to meet him alone first. This was the one emperor in history who had the same name as him in his previous life.
……
He only brought Chang Ping with him.
Li Xuan followed a eunuch and walked in the vast Xianyang Palace, heading towards the main hall where Ying Zheng had received him.
This time, they met in private.
In essence, it was a meeting between Li Xuan and Ying Zheng, and it sounded like Li Xuan was in a lower position.
But there was no other way.
Firstly, in other people's territory, a strong dragon could not suppress a local snake.
Moreover, Li Xuan was not considered a strong dragon.
Secondly, Ying Zheng was qualified.
Very quickly.
Li Xuan arrived in front of a large hall.
Standing at the entrance of the hall, the leading eunuch bowed and said,"
"Please enter alone, Your Highness the King of Qin. His Majesty only wants to see Your Highness the King of Qin alone!”
He heard the eunuch's words.
Li Xuan nodded casually.
"Chang Ping, wait for this king here!”
Hearing this.
Chang Ping bowed and accepted the order, saying,"
"Here!"
After instructing Chang Ping, Li Xuan directly walked into the hall.
He walked in.
The hall was unusually spacious. It was not decorated as much as Emperor Tang's Taiji Palace. There were only a few bookshelves with memorials and files. It was extremely simple and there was no place for people to hide.
He looked up.
Li Xuan saw a figure wearing a black dragon robe sitting on the main seat in the middle of the hall and reading the memorials.
The First Emperor of the Great Qin Empire.
Ying Zheng!
It was different from the Tang Emperor's unfathomable and unfathomable feeling.
Sitting there, Ying Zheng was like a sharp sword, as if he was a natural overlord.
The power of an emperor was undoubtedly displayed.
It fit the image of Ying Zheng that Li Xuan had imagined.
As expected of the one emperor in history in his previous life.
In fact-
In this world, the only dynasty that matched Li Xuan's memories from his previous life was the Qin Dynasty.
The founding emperors of the other three dynasties were different from the founding emperors of the Great Sui, Great Han, and Great Tang in Li Xuan's previous life. Each of them was an amazing talent, not much worse than Ying Zheng at the moment.
He came to the front of the main seat and sat next to a table that was obviously prepared for him.
Li Xuan did not sit down directly, but cupped his hands towards Ying Zheng and said,"
"Greetings, First Emperor!"
He did not look up.
Ying Zheng's strong and steady voice rang out,"
"There's no need to be so polite. Sit!"
Hearing this.
Li Xuan did not stand on ceremony. He sat down directly and waited for Ying Zheng to settle the matter before talking to him.
After a while.
After Ying Zheng had finished dealing with the last memorial, the eunuchs serving him kept all the memorials, then left the hall and closed the door, leaving only Ying Zheng and Li Xuan here.
He raised his eyes.
With a scrutinizing look in his eyes, Ying Zheng sized up Li Xuan and said,"
"You are very similar to your father when he was young! When I see you, I feel like I see the Xuan Dao brother from back then!”
The name of the Tang Emperor-
Li Kun, the word Xuan Road.
The Brother Xuan mentioned by Ying Zheng was Li Xuan's father, the current Emperor of the Great Tang.
"Your Majesty, you flatter me."
Li Xuan's eyes flashed slightly, and he replied calmly,
"Compared to Father, I don't have much strength or ambition. I'm nothing! Not to mention, he was on par with his father!”
His words and tone were very humble.
However, from Li Xuan's calm expression, one could not see the slightest bit of modesty.
Even Ying Zheng could not help but look at Li Xuan in surprise.
"This kid…is completely different from the others!”
After secretly commenting on Li Xuan, Ying Zheng continued,"
"Right now, Great Qin is in an extremely intense war with the Great Han Dynasty and Great Sui Dynasty. The Great Han Dynasty and Great Sui Dynasty intend to open Great Qin's gates and take over Great Qin while seizing the Cang Dragon's treasure!”
He raised his eyebrows.
Hearing Ying Zheng take the initiative to talk about the Cang Dragon's treasure, Li Xuan's interest was piqued, but he did not interrupt Ying Zheng.
Looking at the calm Li Xuan, Ying Zheng smiled and continued,"
"It is rumored that the Cang Dragon's treasure house contains the secrets of the Martial Dao Golden Pill, Divine Transcendence, and Longevity! Just this rumor alone was enough to make anyone in the world go crazy! Kid, aren't you jealous?"
Hearing the question.
Li Xuan was stunned for a moment, then he said directly,
"I'm naturally envious of such a treasure!”
Ying Zheng had never seen such a straightforward young man.
He could not help but laugh out loud.
"Hahaha…you're much more interesting than Brother Xuan. I've never met a young man like you who didn't hide your ambition! Let me ask you again, what would you do if you were coveting the Cang Dragon's treasure?”
Without hesitation, Li Xuan said directly,
"Look."
Raising his eyebrows, Ying Zheng looked at Li Xuan with a slightly puzzled look and said,"
"Just watch? Not snatching?"
Shaking his head, Li Xuan replied,
"I'm not snatching."
Ying Zheng asked curiously,"
"Why?"
Li Xuan's expression was calm.
"I don't have the strength."
Ying Zheng smiled and said,"
"I heard that your strength is not bad. I'm afraid that what you lack is not strength!”
There was no reply.
Li Xuan merely raised his head and glanced at Ying Zheng. His meaning was self-evident.
He didn't care too much.
After pondering for a moment, Ying Zheng said,"
"Think carefully about why the Great Han Empire did nothing to the Great Qin Empire, and think about why Brother Xuan asked you to risk your life to go to the Great Qin Empire…Along the way, it wasn't just the Great Grandmasters who had their eyes on you!”
Hearing Ying Zheng's words.
Li Xuan could not help but fall silent. He was not sure if Ying Zheng's words were true or false.
After all, with his strength…
At most, he could only know about the battle between assassins below the Great Grandmaster Realm. As for the enemies of a higher level, that was not something Li Xuan could know.
He couldn't see or sense it.
However, Ying Zheng's words stunned Li Xuan, and he could not help but have some absurd thoughts in his heart.
Could it be that all of this was just a trap?
A trap set up by Tang Emperor and Ying Zheng?
If that was really the case-
Then, Li Xuan might just be a chess piece in this game!
After thinking of this possibility, Li Xuan's heart suddenly felt a little unhappy.
However, it was only a small amount!
After all, he had gained quite a lot from this diplomatic mission.
Moreover, it was foreseeable that Ying Zheng would gain more benefits from talking to him.
That was why he was a little unhappy.
To Li Xuan, it was only an instant!
He didn't have time to think.
Ying Zheng immediately stood up and said,"
"Alright! I met you first because I wanted to see the successor that brother Xuan picked. You are not bad! There will be benefits for you after this, but you don't need to know more!”
Hearing this.
Li Xuan cupped his hands and bowed.
"Thank you for your guidance, Your Majesty. I understand!”
As he spoke, Li Xuan also stood up.
He walked down the steps.
Ying Zheng walked out of the palace with majestic steps,"
"Come, follow me to the banquet!"
Looking at Ying Zheng's back as he left, Li Xuan's expression was a little puzzled.
He felt that Ying Zheng's attitude towards him had always been strange.
This wasn't the attitude an emperor should have towards the princes of other countries!
There were too many questions.
Li Xuan suppressed his thoughts and did not think too much about these things.
Then, she turned around and followed Ying Zheng's figure.
He had to settle the matter in front of him first before making other plans!
