Chapter 3 King Qin, Yinglou

In the bedroom of the King of Qin.

Ying Lou was wearing a red nightgown and walking barefoot from the bed to the terrace.

The young eunuchs on the side saw the king of the country wake up.

He immediately picked up the leather shoes that had been prepared long ago and placed them on the road where Yinglou would pass.

"Your Majesty, do you need a bath?"

The young eunuch bent over and asked tremblingly.

"No, go prepare some refreshments for me!"

Ying Lou's tone was cold.

Although he was the king of Qin, due to his physical condition, he could only move for two or three hours a day at most.

Now at the age of twenty, he cannot even pull a bow weighing ten kilograms.

During the years of inheriting the throne, every night when he got up, apart from sorting out some government affairs, he would at most eat something.

If it were not for the Qin State, it would have needed the purest bloodline of the Ying royal family to maintain the country's destiny.

To prevent the dragon vein from collapsing and neighboring countries from invading.

Otherwise, the position of "king" would have been replaced by someone else long ago.

"Your Majesty, today's memorials are ready. Would you like to review them now?" the young eunuch asked again.

"Humph, if I want to review it, I will review it naturally. Do I need you to say anything here?"

Ying Lou glared at the new eunuch.

It seems that mother Zhao Ji took advantage of the time when she was sleeping to replace the confidants around her.

A King of Qin who was plagued by illness and was powerless.

In her eyes, he still looked so threatening.

After snorting coldly.

Ying Lou came to the attic of the bedroom and let the night wind blow her long hair and hit her face.

There is a building every five steps and a pavilion every ten steps.

Ying Lou looked down at the most magnificent palace in the world, but his heart was filled with desolation.

As delicate as a girl's wrist, and skin as white as blood.

To be honest, Ying Lou didn't know how long this body could last.

But Ying Lou was not desperate.

Because he has another body.

As long as Jin Chan can successfully escape from the "Peach Blossom Spring" in the southern wilderness and come to the Great Qin far away in the Central Plains.

Then use the body as medicine.

Let Yinglou eat it all.

By the time.

An immortal King of Qin will lead his cavalry to sweep across the world and unify the six kingdoms.

"Prepare the car, I am going to the Lanshu Tower!"

The clue just got from Li Ying.

Ying Lou must seize the time and find a way to escape from Peach Blossom Land as soon as possible while this body can still move.

"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother has instructed you to rest more to avoid exhausting yourself."

The young eunuch bent over, and his duck-like voice made Ying Lou extremely disgusted.

"Has the Queen Mother already reached into my chamber?"

Ying Lou was furious and pulled out the Qin King's sword from the table, then stabbed the young eunuch in the chest with the sword.

Although he was a sick dragon, the king's majesty could not be defied by a small eunuch.

"Prepare the car!"

After putting down the sword, Ying Lou put on a deerskin and said breathlessly.

Looking at the blood flowing on the ground and the still warm corpse, no one dared to anger the young King of Qin anymore.

The Lanshu Building consists of twelve floors.

A collection of famous scrolls from all over the world.

Most of the world's literature is here.

Only those who have obtained permission from the current King of Qin can enter.

Compared to the bedroom, this place is safer. "Your Majesty!"

Just entered the first floor.

The book keeper greeted Ying Lou respectfully.

"Take out all the Southern Wilderness books, the sooner the better!"

Ying Lou spoke up.

"Your Majesty, please wait a moment!"

The book keeper responded and jumped lightly to the fifth floor, starting to search among the thousands of books.

The book keeper who had accompanied four generations of Qin kings was one of Ying Lou's most trusted people in the entire Afang Palace.

It took about one stick of incense.

The book keeper came to Ying Lou holding dozens of dark yellow ancient books.

"Your Majesty, all the books about the Southern Wilderness are here, but I'm not sure if there's anything Your Majesty wants in them."

"How many years have you been in this library?"

Ying Lou asked the other party while flipping through the book.

"It has been more than sixty years since the last Qin King was crowned!"

The book keeper stood aside with a hunched back. Although he was old, he was full of energy.

"Have you ever seen any literature on Qingtan and fireflies?"

Ying Lou continued to ask.

"Hmm~~~, I have heard of it before, but the Southern Wilds is a remote barbarian land, more than 100,000 miles away from the Central Plains, and there are not many records about fireflies and Qingtan!"

The book keeper thought for a moment and then replied.

"Oh, tell me about it?"

Ying Lou closed the book in his hand.

Dozens of ancient books piled together far exceeded the height of Ying Lou.

If I were to read through all of it, I'm afraid even a day and a night would not be enough.

And even if time permits, Ying Lou's frail body won't be able to hold on.

"promise"

Next, the book keeper told everything he knew.

In the Ten Thousand Mountains of the Southern Wilderness, there is an extremely rare red flesh maggot called firefly.

Although this maggot is not big, if it is crushed directly, the flesh will burst out with a hot flame that can melt steel.

"Are those untouchables planning to stew me in this maggot fire?"

"But what exactly is this Qingtan?"

After hearing the book keeper's words, Ying Lou narrowed his eyes and began to murmur in his heart.

"Your Majesty, when I was traveling in the Southern Wilds, I heard from the locals that this Qingtan is an evil object that must not be touched!"

"Also, according to local rumors, an immortal once died on this green altar."

Although he didn't know why the King of Qin wanted to know these things, the book keeper still told him everything he knew.

"Oh! Immortal?"

Ying Lou became interested.

Just when the Book Keeper was about to speak again.

The door of Lanshu Tower was suddenly pushed open.

Ta da~ da da~
Two rows of soldiers wearing armor, carrying spears on their shoulders and with short swords on their waists rushed in and surrounded the library.

The helmets with the crown feathers symbolizing the royal family covered their entire faces, making Ying Lou unable to see their expressions.

"How dare you! Who let you in?"

Ying Lou narrowed his eyes and stared ahead with a gloomy expression.

The third King of Qin once enacted a law that no one could enter the Lanshu Tower without the king's permission.

Now, these people in front of me dare to act like this!

"Lou'er, can't I come too?"

Surrounded by three or five eunuchs.

Zhao Ji, the Queen Mother of the Qin Dynasty and Ying Lou's biological mother, walked in with lotus steps.
