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

Chapter 85: Bai Qi and Lu Buwei, asking for forgiveness

"In that case, I will take my leave and not disturb your rest, Your Majesty!"

I have to say, a pregnant woman changes a lot.

At this time, Huayang no longer had any thoughts about Ying Lou's body, and he was not as hungry for it as before.

I didn't even want to take another look.

After Huayang left, Ying Lou lay alone on the empty bed again.

Although I still couldn't sleep, I closed my eyes and started meditating.

He was not only thinking about Jin Chan and Li Yingtai, but also about entering Chang'an, killing the prince, deposing the old king, and establishing a new king.

They even simulated the power struggles in the Qin Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms' invasion of Qin.

In short, although Ying Lou couldn't sleep that night, he was not idle either.

that's it.

It was not until the first rays of sunlight illuminated the Afang Palace that the young eunuchs came to the bedroom carrying jade basins, towels and breakfast.

Only then did Ying Lou get up, wash and change his clothes.

After a night of tossing and turning, Ying Lou was already feeling a little sleepy.

And on the other side at this time.

General Bai Qi had already arrived in Xianyang City and had breakfast with Lu Buwei at the Prime Minister's Residence.

"General Bai, do you miss the food in Xianyang?"

Lu Buwei held a leg of lamb in his hand, took a big bite and asked the person opposite him.

"Haha, although I have been in Wu'an for many years, the chefs in the mansion are all from Xianyang. I can't get used to the food from the border area!"

An old man with a white beard and plain clothes laughed heartily.

The sound, as loud as a bell, spread throughout the Prime Minister's Mansion.

This old man, who is nearly 70 years old, is none other than General Bai Qi, who made the six Central Plains countries tremble in fear and was known as the "Man-Butcher" by the world.

Although General Bai Qi is old, he does not look old at all.

His figure was as tall and straight as a mountain, as if time had only whitened his beard and hair.

Because he had fought on the battlefield for a long time when he was young, his skin was a little rough due to the wind, sand and sun. He was full of masculinity, even Lu Buwei, who was in his prime, was slightly inferior to him.

Next to him stood a broadsword that was more than two meters long and weighed over a hundred pounds.

The blade was inserted obliquely into the soil, half buried under the hard soil and half exposed to the air.

It seemed as if everything around was tinged with a solemn and murderous atmosphere, which made people feel awe.

"Haha, with your status, why do you have to stay in a small town like Wu'an? You can go back to Xianyang anytime you want!"

Without even mentioning Ying Lou, Lu Buwei arbitrarily overturned the decree issued by the previous king.

"Prime Minister Lu, are you asking me to disobey your order?"

Bai Qi picked up a bowl of liquor, slowly put it to his mouth and drank it.

But the cold eyes looking forward were enough to make even Lu Buwei, the Prime Minister of the Great Qin State, feel a chill.

"General Bai, I am negligent, but are you loyal to the Qin Dynasty or to the Ying family?"

Lu Buwei put down the leg of lamb in his hand, took out a pair of jade toads from his arms, and coiled them up in his hands.

Then he said slowly.

"Haha, what the Prime Minister said is quite interesting!"

Bai Qi did not give a direct answer, but just drank the wine in the bowl.

"Haha! So refreshing! The wine in Xianyang City is indeed much stronger than my little Wu'an!"

Putting down the wine bowl, Bai Qi laughed and said.

"General Bai, the main general against the Three Kingdoms, in my opinion, apart from you, there is no one else in the Qin Dynasty who is worthy of this tiger talisman to command the army."

"Humph, of course. It's just a mere alliance between Chu, Tang and Qi. I will make sure they never return."

Bai Qi's words seemed to indicate that he had already secured the position of commander-in-chief. "But according to rumors, the commander of the Chu army this time is Xiang Yan, and he has brought a unique weapon from the Central Plains with him! I wonder if the king will lend you the one in the palace?"

Lu Buwei stroked his beard and asked meaningfully.

"Oh, no chance. When I was young, I followed King Zhao to conquer the world, and I never even saw that sword. It is impossible for Ying Lou to let it leave the Qin Palace now."

"Besides, this Zhongyuan unique weapon is not something you can use just by saying so. The fish belly sword that King Zhao gave me is too hard to use to cut vegetables. It's not as good as my knife!"

While saying this, Bai Qi touched the big knife stuck in the ground beside him.

It seemed that in his eyes, this "old friend" that had accompanied him in killing countless enemies was worth all the weapons in the Central Plains.

"."

Lu Buwei didn't say anything, but just narrowed his eyes and thought about something.

"General Bai, when we get to Qilin Palace later, if you take the position of commander, don't forget what you promised me!"

After both of them were silent for a moment, Lu Buwei was the first to break the silence.

"Don't worry, Prime Minister. As long as I, Bai Qi, promise something, I will definitely keep my word."

"What's more, the Qin Empire is using its own strength to defeat the coalition forces of Chu, Tang, and Qi. What you are asking for is nothing. I will bring it up in the Qilin Palace later."

Bai Qi agreed without any hesitation.

"Thank you, General Bai!"

Although Lü Buwei's official position was second only to that of the emperor in Qin, he still bowed his head and spoke respectfully with both hands.

"Prime Minister, I don't quite understand why you do this."

"Are you not satisfied with the position of Prime Minister?"

Bai Qi straightened his back and asked Lu Buwei who lowered his head in front of him.

"Of course it's for the Qin Dynasty to unify the Central Plains!"

Lu Buwei stood up, facing the direction of the Emperor of Central Plains, and spoke confidently in his deep and magnetic voice.

"Haha, what a great wish to unify the Central Plains. If His Majesty King Zhao can live another twenty years, I will definitely accompany him to fulfill this wish shared by all the heroes in the world."

Looking at Lu Buwei's eyes, Bai Qi seemed to see the shadow of the previous Qin King.

Then, not long after the two of them had breakfast.

Li Si came over in a hurry.

"Mr. Prime Minister, General Bai, it's time to set off for Qilin Palace!"

"Okay, General Bai, please!"

Lu Buwei stretched out his hand, motioning Bai Qi to walk in front of him.

"No hurry, may I ask if there are any thorns in the Prime Minister's Mansion?"

Bai Qi stroked his beard and asked slowly.

"Thorns? What do you want them for?"

Lu Buwei and Li Si asked at the same time.

"Haha, if I enter Xianyang City without permission, I will be guilty!"

"In this case, why not follow the example of my old friend in Zhao State and apologize to our young king!"

After Bai Qi finished speaking, he took off his shirt and tied it around his waist.

Revealing muscles covered with scars and marks from swords and knives, symbolizing the glory of military exploits.

"Haha, General Bai is quite playful!"

Lu Buwei laughed a few times, then asked his servants to go to the backyard to get a basket of thorns for Bai Qi to choose from.

It's just that the word "playful" is used to describe the act of asking for forgiveness from the King of Qin.

This made Li Si, who was standing by, see the arrogance of the prime minister.

　I am working hard to save the manuscript. I will try to get a hit on the first day of the release. I will return to the main line of Jinchan soon.
