In the southeast corner of the Storytelling House.
It was unknown if it was because he was infected by the angry voices around him, or because the story of Ying Changan was too vivid.
Lü Xiaomei was so angry that her face turned red. She slammed her fist on the table and said angrily,"This Xu Fu is really too bad. How can he be like this?”
"Puchi!"
Looking at his younger sister's innocent appearance, Lu Zhi could not help but laugh out loud.
"Look at you. You're so engrossed in listening to a story. You were so timid before.”
Lu Xiaomei came back to her senses. She blushed and smiled shyly."Hehe, it's all thanks to Sister."
Lu Zhi withdrew his smile and raised his head to look at the porcelain doll on the high platform. He muttered softly,"Actually, I feel that Great Qin's Imperial Court has a huge flaw.”
"Eh, big sister, what kind of flaw?”
Lu Xiaomei blinked her eyes curiously.
Lu Zhi said,"Great Qin lacks a harem master. Every time a golden age came, the Emperor would not be the only one to bear all the responsibilities. His wife should also be of great help to him.”
As expected of one of the most legendary queens in history.
Lu Zhi's vision and thoughts were always able to grasp the most crucial problem.
Ying Zheng was the one emperor in history, but there was one big difference between him and the other emperors, and that was that he did not have an empress.
Throughout history.
Any successful emperor had a capable wife behind him.
There was no need to say much about Lu Zhi himself. He was also an empress who wrote her name in the long river of time.
There were also Li Shimin and Zhangsun Wugou of the Great Tang, Zhu Yuanzhang and Empress Ma of the Great Ming, and Yang Jian and Dugu Jialuo of the Great Sui.
Ying Zheng of the Great Qin Empire was probably the only monarch who had achieved great things without an empress.
It was also because of this.
Whatever Ying Zheng did, he would make his own decisions, and no one dared to go against his will, no matter whether it was right or wrong.
Just as Lu Zhi said.
If Ying Zheng had a lover who could help him through thick and thin, he would never watch as his body was emptied bit by bit.
Lu Zhi at this age was merely a twelve or thirteen year old young girl, but already had a vicious eye.
"What sister said seems to make sense.”
Lu Xiaomei nodded thoughtfully and then smiled mischievously.""Could it be that Elder Sister wants to be the Empress?"
"You damn girl, you can't spit out ivory from a dog's mouth.”
Lu Zhi rebuked. He raised his head and looked at the porcelain doll on the high platform, muttering,"Even if you want to become an Empress, you should be Great Qin's future Empress.”
"Eh?"
Lu Xiaomei widened her eyes and looked at her sister in surprise.
This was the first time she knew that Lu Zhi actually had such great ambitions.
……
At the northwest corner of the Storytelling House.
The Sword Saint looked at Ying Changan on the high platform with an unprecedented seriousness in his eyes.
It had been many years since his Sword Dao and Sword Heart had been so turbulent.
The story of Ying Chang 'an gave him a great shock.
Xu Fu, Chang Sheng, three thousand boys and girls, his betrayal, Ying Zheng's rage, and the night filled with thunder.
These things were all top secrets, and very few people knew about them.
However, Ying Changan knew everything about him. He knew everything except for his own existence.
In fact…
Even the Sword Saint did not know Xu Fu's background, but this little kid knew it like the back of his hand.
What was even more surprising was that Ying Changan was able to tell these shocking secrets in a story-telling manner.
While not losing interest, it could also give the greatest shock to those who were secretly interested.
The Sword Saint had no doubts.
Somewhere in the palace, the First Emperor must have found out about all of this.
The shock in his heart was definitely not inferior to his own.
"Humph!"
Thinking of the possible reaction that Ying Zheng might have, the Sword Saint could not help but smile wickedly.
……
In the corner of the palace.
The Sword Saint had guessed correctly.
At this moment, Ying Zheng could no longer remain calm. The fury on his face was obvious to anyone who was not blind.
"Zhao Gao, what else do you have to say?”
He stared at Zhao Gao, who was trembling in front of him, and his tone was extremely cold.
"Your Majesty, this old servant has been wronged! I swear, I never knew Xu Fu would do such a crazy thing.”
Zhao Gao cried bitterly and kowtowed crazily.
The floor of the corner building made a loud banging sound.
Not long after.
Zhao Gao's forehead was already dripping with blood.
Li Si was dumbfounded.
He could not understand what Ying Zheng and Zhao Gao were talking about.
However, through the story of Ying Chang 'an and what happened in front of him, he quickly understood.
At the same time.
A chill ran down Li Si's spine.
In that case, the story of Prince Nineteen winning Chang 'an was true!？
Xu Fu really existed?
And it was right next to Ying Zheng!
Hiss!
Li Si could not help but gasp.
This was really an explosive and shocking secret!
What made him even more terrified was that perhaps Ying Zheng's body had already been emptied.
In that case…
Wouldn't his lifespan be reduced?
As soon as this thought appeared in his mind, Li Si suddenly felt dizzy. He felt like the sky was about to collapse.
Great Qin belonged to Ying Zheng alone.
If the First Emperor died, the world would be in chaos!
"Enough!"
Just as Li Si was lost in his thoughts, Ying Zheng's majestic voice rang out again.
The sound of the floor colliding stopped abruptly.
Zhao Gao shivered as he knelt on the ground, not daring to move.
"Go get a silver needle and find a living thing. I want to test it myself!”
Ying Zheng said in a deep voice.
"This old servant's life!"
Zhao Gao agreed and scrambled out of the corner tower.
In just a moment, he returned with two items.
A silver needle and a chick.
Under Li Si's shocked gaze, Ying Zheng took out an exquisite small box from his sleeve.
Ying Zheng opened the box and saw twelve red pills neatly placed inside.
Every pill was emitting a faint light, strange and bloody.
Ying Zheng picked up a silver needle and gently inserted it into a medicinal pill, then rotated his thumb slightly.
A moment later.
He pulled out the silver needles.
Something shocking happened.
The tip of the silver needle turned black!
Seeing this scene, Zhao Gao's legs went weak and he fell to the ground.
This meant that the pill was not poisonous!
Ying Zheng also heaved a sigh of relief, and his entire body collapsed.
"Perhaps that brat was just making it up?”
He comforted himself.
Next, it was the living creature test.
"Go, give this pill to a living thing to eat.”
Ying Zheng took out a pill from the small box and handed it to Zhao Gao, who was standing beside him.
"This old servant will obey."
Zhao Gao didn't dare to be negligent. He took the pill with both hands and placed it in front of the chick.
The furry little chick seemed to have found something interesting and began to peck at the surface of the pill.
Both Ying Zheng and Zhao Gao held their breaths and watched quietly.
Fifteen minutes later.
A small portion of the pill had already been pecked away, but the chick did not change much.
Zhao Gao's heart slowly relaxed.
God bless!
"Ji!"
At this moment, the chick suddenly let out a high-pitched sound.
Soon after.
Under their gazes, it fell to the ground. Its two little paws flapped twice, and its movements became slower and slower.
In the end.
The chick closed its eyes, and its claws gradually stiffened.
The corner tower of the palace was deathly silent.
Zhao Gao's pupils suddenly constricted, and his heart, which had just settled down, rose to his throat again.
"Pa!"
A violent sound rang out.
The long table in front of Ying Zheng was smashed into powder.
"Traitor! I've treated you well, how dare you do this?”
He was really angry.
The corner tower was instantly filled with the terrifying pressure of an emperor.
Zhao Gao and Li Si quickly knelt on the ground, not even daring to raise their heads.
Especially Zhao Gao, his face was flushed red. He really wanted to kill himself here.
He hated Xu Fu even more than Ying Zheng.
Motherf * cker!
You've deceived me so hard!
"Zhao Gao!"
"This old servant is here!"
"Bring your men and bring Xu Fu back to me!”
"Understood!"
Seeing that Ying Zheng did not blame him, Zhao Gao was instantly invigorated. Like a mad dog, he dashed out of the corner tower with a whoosh.
It was not hard to imagine.
Zhao Gao would definitely capture Xu Fu at all costs.
In the corner tower.
Ying Zheng looked at the medicinal pills scattered all over the ground in desolation.
In fact…
One of the pills rolled in front of Li Si.
"Prime Minister, get up."
Ying Zheng's voice was a little hoarse, as if he had suffered a great blow.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Li Si lowered his head and stood in front of Ying Zheng.
Looking at Li Si, who seemed to be a little submissive, Ying Zheng turned his head and looked at the storytelling tower that was packed with people not far away, and gave a bitter smile.
"Ha!"
"Prime minister, you don't believe me, do you? What that kid said was actually true.”
Li Si lowered his head even further and remained silent, not knowing how to answer.
After many years of ups and downs in the official world, he had long understood a principle.
He knew what he should know, and he didn't want to know what he shouldn't know.
"Prime Minister, there is no need to be afraid."
Ying Zheng seemed to have sensed Li Si's apprehension, and said softly,""Someone will find out about this sooner or later.”
"Just like that kid said, in recent years, my body has indeed been getting worse and worse. That's why I'm persistent in seeking longevity.”
"Because We don't want Great Qin to fall apart.”
"I just want to take a look at this country.”
"The scenery is picturesque."
At the end of his speech, Ying Zheng's voice was choked with sobs.
"Your Majesty!"
Li Si fell to the ground and cried bitterly.
Ying Zheng looked back and smiled faintly." Prime Minister, you don't have to be sad. It's funny. Yesterday, I went to look for that brat, and he gave me something to eat. He said it was a Longevity Pill.”
"I really feel like my energy has returned to ten years ago. Do you think the Longevity Pill that kid gave me is real?”
Li Si remained silent and sobbed softly.
“……”
Not saying anything was actually an answer.
Ying Zheng smiled in relief and said,""That's right. How could a little kid know anything about longevity?”
"How could this brat have something that I have never found in my entire life?”
"He just wants to make me happy.”
After saying that.
Ying Zheng waved his hand and walked down the tower.
He staggered and his figure was lonely.
Li Si's eyes were red as he quietly watched Ying Zheng leave. For the first time in his life, he felt like he was floating in the sea, without anyone to rely on.
He raised his head and looked out the window.
The high-spirited Ying Chang 'an on the high platform complemented the cheers of hundreds of thousands of Xianyang citizens.
It was as if he was Great Qin's future king!
