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

Chapter 83 Dilemma
"General Bai?"

Hearing this, Ying Lou looked through the pearl curtain on the crown and gazed at Lu Buwei who was standing below.

"What does this guy want to do? Why doesn't he recommend his own followers?" Ying Lou thought to himself.

"Your Majesty, I met General Bai in Wu'an not long ago. Although General Bai is old, he is still as vigorous as ever. Even if he goes into battle again, he will not be inferior to his youth."

"Moreover, General Bai has been invincible since he led the army. He has never been defeated in his life. This time, against the three countries of Chu, Tang, and Qi, no one else can be qualified for the position of the chief general except him!"

After Lu Buwei said this.

All the military officers who originally wanted to compete for the position of commander-in-chief suddenly became silent.

You must know that in this world, no one dares to compete with Bai Qi for the position of the chief general of the Qin Dynasty.

Even when he is nearly 70 years old.

There is no one in this world who is worthy of her.

"We will discuss this later. General Bai is old after all, and Wu'an is thousands of miles away from Xianyang. We cannot delay the matter too much!"

Ying Lou rejected Lu Buwei's proposal.

Although the specific reason was not stated, all the officials knew it.

That was the previous King of Qin, who abolished Bai Qi's position as the leader of all generals.

As a result, although the people of the Bai family army did not say it, they were already dissatisfied in their hearts.

Even though Bai Macuo had made many military achievements and received continuous rewards in the Qin army over the years.

He was even just named Vanguard General.

However, the middle and lower-level soldiers of the Bai family army still had prejudices against the King of Qin.

Fortunately, Bai Ma Cuo didn't seem to care about this matter and still performed his duties as a military general.

"Your Majesty, General Bai will arrive in Xianyang City tomorrow!"

Lu Buwei raised the corner of his mouth, took out a pair of jade beads from somewhere and started to play with them.

And he seemed to have expected Ying Lou to say this.

"Lu, no, for!"

Ying Lou gritted his teeth, suppressed his anger and recited silently.

Before reporting to the King of Qin, he secretly invited Bai Qi to Xianyang City. If it were anyone else, he would have been beheaded ten times just for this reason.

"Okay, I will host a banquet tomorrow in Qilin Palace to entertain General Bai!"

Ying Lou threw his robe and walked towards his carriage with a grim expression.

"Your Majesty, please return to the palace!"

After the old eunuch roared in his hoarse voice.

The long convoy left the execution ground and returned to the Afang Palace.

"What a good Lu Buwei! I really don't understand what you want to do!"

On the carriage.

Ying Lou took a few deep breaths, calmed himself down, then touched the imperial seal on his chest and muttered to himself.

After returning to Qilin Hall.

The officials continued to enjoy the music and watch the dance.

Ying Lou returned to his bedroom on the pretext of feeling unwell.

"Come here, bring me a jar of the best wine in the palace."

After taking off the heavy black dragon robe, Ying Lou sat on the edge of the bed and said breathlessly.

It seems that the "long journey" just now has exhausted his body to the extreme.

If it weren't for Doctor Hua's twelve silver needles and Bai Shi San mixed with exotic fruit powder, Ying Lou would have fallen asleep by now.

"promise!"

Although the eunuchs didn't know why the king, who never drank, would act like this.

But as palace servants, they did not dare to ask more questions.

Not a moment.

A jar of fine wine made of jade and weighing about fifteen pounds was brought over.

"Everyone get out!"

Ying Lou had a cold face, and this expression alone was enough to scare the young eunuchs so much that they trembled all over.

"promise!"

When Ying Lou was the only one left in the entire bedroom.

Ying Lou dragged his tired body and walked towards the wine jar step by step.

Uncover the wine.

The whole room was instantly filled with a rich and mellow fragrance. Just a sniff at the mouth of the jar made Ying Lou feel slightly tipsy.

huh~~~
Ying Lou was seen placing his slender hands on the wine jar, and then using all his strength to try to lift it up.

"It's really heavy. If it were a golden cicada's body, it should be no problem to carry even ten times the weight."

Ying Lou's cheeks turned red and his thin arms trembled constantly.

Every time I exerted force, my muscles twitched and spasmed.

His face was covered with sweat, as if he had been exposed to the sun in the dog days of summer.

Just a 15-jin wine jar almost cost Ying Lou half his life.

"I know that your Jiang family is full of loyal and brave people, and Lord Chang Ling is also my right-hand man."

Ying Lou picked up the wine jar with difficulty, raised his head, and spoke towards the sky outside the door.

"However, I am willing to take full responsibility for what happened today."

"In the future, when I regain the power, I will rebuild the ancestral hall and the ancestral temple for the Jiang family with state ceremony, and then kneel down and burn incense in person!"

After finishing these words breathlessly, Ying Lou poured all the wine in the jar onto the ground.

In memory of the thirty-seven people who died today.

Huh~~huh~~
After doing all this.

Ying Lou just felt his body was sore and weak, as if every inch of his muscles were torn apart.

Sit back on the bed.

Ying Lou lowered his head, trying to calm his heart that was about to beat out of his chest.

If what Zhao Ji said that day was true, this body was quite "broken".

Close your eyes and lie flat on the bed.

Ying Lou's body has been exhausted to the limit, so he should be able to fall asleep.

but.

After half an hour.

Ying Lou was still energetic, but he was only mentally awake.

My body is still exhausted!

"This, does it mean I have to rely on the tranquilizing soup to fall asleep again?"

Not a moment.

"Your Majesty, I am guilty!"

Doctor Hua was seen kneeling at Ying Lou's feet, speaking with tears and snot.

"Doctor Hua, what crime have you committed?"

Ying Lou asked in confusion.

"My lord, these twelve needles combined with Bai Shi San will keep an ordinary person awake for at least three days and three nights. Your body is 'special', so it will probably take a day and a night."

Doctor Hua originally wanted to say that Ying Lou was weak, but for the sake of his own life, he changed his words to "special".

"Don't you have a calming soup? Go and make me a bowl!"

Ying Lou frowned and then spoke.

"My lord, this won't do!"

"If Bai Shi San is taken together with An Shen Tang, it will be highly toxic."

Hear this.

Ying Lou almost abolished Doctor Hua's position in the palace.

But then he thought again, it was indeed he who said, "When Prime Minister Lu appears in Xianyang City, you must wake me up by any means, or I will dethrone you as the number one doctor in Qin!"

"Oh, never mind, never mind!"

"Prepare some food and tea for me, and bring me the memorials from this period!"

Since you can't fall asleep, just arrange your time reasonably.

As for Jin Chan, after thinking about it, Ying Lou was not very worried.

After all, even if he is desperate, Li Yingtai can still use the country's destiny.

What Ying Lou didn’t know was.

The southern wilderness border at this time.

Li Yingtai, Xiao Luoyang and the unconscious Jin Chan were surrounded by another three or four hundred people.

And those dozen or so Tang soldiers had already turned into corpses.

　Brothers, Sanjiang will definitely not be available anymore. It will probably be available in a few days. Dear big guys, please support us on the first day of availability. Thank you all!
