I am already immortal, why should I ascend to become an immortal?

Chapter 16 Don’t say anything!
Seeing Li Xin's confused and surprised expression, Ying Lou and Chang Lingjun covered their mouths and laughed at the same time.

"Do you think the king has committed treason?"

Chang Lingjun had no taboos. He stroked his beard and asked Li Xin jokingly.

"Nonsense, the Great Qin belongs to the King, no one can betray the King! It's just that..."

Li Xin stopped talking halfway through.

Although he never believed that the king would commit treason, it was a real possibility that the three kingdoms would unite to attack Qin.

The general's muscular brain couldn't figure out why this happened even if he racked his brains!
"Xin, sit down first!"

Ying Lou waved his hand. The Three Kingdoms' attack on Qin was indeed something he and Chang Lingjun had secretly planned for many years without telling a group of ministers, Zhao Ji, Ying Qi and others.

In order to lobby the Three Kingdoms without being noticed, Chang Lingjun, who was in his fifties, drove a carriage alone without even any followers. He traveled among the countries for many years, which caused his body to become weaker than before. Even his originally black hair is now quietly dyed with silver hair.

"I can't tell you the reason for this matter, but as the King of Qin, how could I do anything that would be detrimental to the Qin Dynasty! Now you just need to go to the border of the Southern Wilderness and bring that person back. By then, I will be able to unify the Central Plains in my lifetime!"

Ying Lou's eyes were deep and sharp, and his voice was low, as if every word contained tremendous power, especially the last four words "unify the Central Plains", which made Li Xin's body tremble.

"I will set out tonight and will definitely complete the mission. If I fail, I will bear the responsibility of being torn into pieces by five horses!"

Li Xin clasped his fists, bent his knees, and solemnly issued a military order to Ying Lou.

"Okay! I'll pour you some wine."

Ying Lou shouted, walked forward, supported Li Xin, who was kneeling on the ground, with both hands, then picked up the three wine glasses on the table and filled them up himself.

"Your Majesty, your body!"

Li Xin knew that Ying Lou almost never drank alcohol due to his weak body, especially such strong liquor as the one in front of him.

"That's fine! Let's have a good time today. I'll drink with you two!"

After Ying Lou finished speaking, he drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.

In this way, after the three of them chatted and drank a few cups, Li Xin left Zhangtai Palace under the pretext of preparing his luggage because he was worried about Ying Lou's health.

"Your Majesty, I will also be leaving Qin in seven days. The next time we meet will be on the battlefield. The seals of the three kingdoms are a little heavy!"

The corners of Chang Lingjun's mouth drooped slightly, forming a bitter arc, and he drank the remaining half pot of liquor in one gulp.

Although his eyes were full of reluctance, for the sake of Ying Lou's plan, he had to join the game and leave the Qin State that raised him as a traitor.

"The Qin Empire will never forget you!" Ying Lou stood up and bowed.

"Let's go! Although the three kingdoms are not coming out in full force to attack Qin this time, they all carry their own destiny. Your Majesty, be careful!"

Chang Lingjun waved his hand with his back to Ying Lou and left his last words.

Looking at Chang Lingjun's skinny back, Ying Lou sighed.

If Ying Lou had not been in dire straits, he would never have let such a loyal old minister end up being despised by everyone in the Qin State.

Outside the court, the kings of the other six states all had ambitions to conquer the world. In addition, the fact that the King of Qin was disabled was known to the world, so their first target was the vast Qin State, even if they had to face an army of millions of powerful soldiers.

In other words, even if Lord Chang Ling had not led the coalition to attack Qin, it would have been only a matter of time before the six kingdoms sent their troops to Hangu Pass.

Inside the court, Zhao Ji and Ying Qi already had the idea of ​​forcing the emperor to abdicate and usurping the throne. Even if they hesitated for a moment because of the country's destiny, it would only be delayed for a few years at most. After Zhao Ji gave birth to a child, these two would definitely plot a coup.

However, in Ying Lou's eyes, Zhao Ji and Ying Qi were not the biggest threats, but someone else. No one in the entire Central Plains could match this person in terms of cunning, means, power, financial resources, and number of retainers.

Even the reason why the six kingdoms did not send troops to attack Qin in these years was because of this man stationed in Xianyang City.

"There are so many roads, where are you now?"

After Ying Lou carefully savored the last sip of the mellow liquor in the glass, he stood up and walked towards the bedroom.

According to past experience, this body will fall into sleep again soon.

Three hours later, it was already dark.

In the bedroom of the King of Qin, Ying Lou was lying on the bed, staring at the ceiling with his long, narrow eyes open. "Did you see a ghost? Why aren't you asleep yet?"

Ying Lou wondered.

It's been almost five hours since I woke up this time, and even though I drank quite a bit of wine, I still don't feel sleepy.

Insomnia?

These two unfamiliar words made Ying Lou feel that things were not that simple.

"Could it be that something happened to Jin Chan?"

It was just a fall from a high altitude. Logically, Jin Chan should have recovered long ago.

"Go find the imperial physician and make me a bowl of calming soup!"

After hearing this, the young eunuch did not dare to reply to Ying Lou in time, for fear that he had misheard.

You should know that on weekdays, the King of Qin would sleep for about ten hours.

Calming decoction? The imperial physician probably forgot how to make it.

"Are you deaf? Ask the imperial physician to quickly prepare a bowl of soothing soup for you."

Ying Lou frowned, and had no choice but to repeat it again.

"Yes, I'll go right away!" The young eunuch, who finally heard clearly, responded quickly.

Since he couldn't sleep anyway, Ying Lou simply put on his clothes and went to the terrace, feeling the night breeze on his face.

"Apart from not feeling sleepy, there seems to be nothing wrong with my body!"

After Ying Lou looked at his body carefully, he found that he was not sleepy at all, but instead had a little more strength.

This feeling made Ying Lou overjoyed.

But since I can't sleep, I'll just take a look at the latest news.

Jin Chan won’t die anyway!

Sitting at the desk, Ying Lou flipped through the manuscripts piled on it.

But after looking at a few, I found that most of them were trivial matters.

Sudden.

"Your Majesty, I heard that you have no mood to sleep tonight, so I came specially to spend the night with you!"

Looking up, I saw Huayang appearing at the door of the bedroom with light steps.

A translucent red tulle as thin as a cicada's wing, paired with a light yet charming makeup, made Ying Lou purse his lips subconsciously.

"Ugh!"

What is coming will come, and you can’t hide from it forever.

Ying Lou sighed secretly.

He couldn't understand why such a beautiful and intelligent woman had only one thing in her mind: getting pregnant with a dragon seed.

"Your Majesty, I have something to discuss with you. Can you please let me in?"

Huayang deliberately lifted a little of the gauze dress on her body so that Yinglou in the distance could admire it.

"Don't say anything, just get on the bed!"

Ying Lou stood up and walked towards the bed.

Hiding all the time is no solution anyway, and I need to fall asleep urgently right now, so I might as well take this opportunity to fulfill the other person's wish.
