Jixiu: “???” Do I look like a big villain?
He glanced at Xiao Shan and asked, "Why don't you go by yourself?"
Xiao Shan touched his straightened buzz cut...
Tsk~ a bit prickly!
"The main thing is that I have some ties to the First Emperor. It's not that I'm afraid, it's just..."
"Awe?" Wang Lung replied.
Xiao Shan scratched his head. "No, it just doesn't seem real."
Ji Xiu covered her lips and whispered, "Yes, I feel the same way. I never thought that one day I would be able to drink with Qin Shi Huang."
Ji Xiu looked at the two of them after he finished speaking. Wang Long and Xiao Shan nodded in unison. "That's the feeling..."
Cheng Xiaoxiao picked up a glass of wine and stood up, "Ancestor, I offer a toast to you."
Everyone's attention was drawn to him, and they looked at the First Emperor with burning eyes.
"Haha, okay." Ying Zheng laughed. He raised the wine bottle heroically, tilted his head back and poured the wine in the bottle into his mouth.
Some naughty beads of wine flowed down the corners of his lips, passed by his delicate jawline, and flowed across his seductive neck.
As Ying Zheng swallowed, his sexy Adam's apple began to roll up and down.
He placed the empty wine jar on the table, and immediately a eunuch came over and refilled the jar with wine.
"Gudong!" Cheng Xiaoxiao couldn't help swallowing her saliva. This beautiful picture was a direct blow to her heart.
Well...it's not that she is shy, but the ancestor is too charming.
The female disciples of Xiaoyao Sect also had the same reaction as her. This scene directly touched their hearts, making them admire and love the First Emperor even more.
Before Cheng Xiaoxiao sat down completely, Zhou Tinghai, who had been prepared for a long time, saw the opportunity and immediately stood up impatiently, with a glass of wine in his hand.
Zhou Tinghai looked at Ying Zheng and said admiringly, "Ancestor Qin Shi Huang, this junior offers a toast to you."
Ying Zheng looked at this "junior" who was probably about the same age as him, with a slightly complicated look in his eyes, "Okay, ancestor did it!"
He picked up the bottle and drank it all again...
Zhou Tinghai looked at everyone proudly, and everyone came to the conclusion from his eyes that this guy was just showing off.
Of course, his success also made everyone present envious and cry, and they were all eager to try it.
After all, there is no one who doesn't want to have a drink with the First Emperor.
but……
Ying Zheng didn't give them this opportunity at all. He looked at Cheng Xiaoxiao and said, "Girl, can you tell me about that so-and-so pheasant country?"
"Okay." Cheng Xiaoxiao answered quickly from her seat, "But they're not called that yet."
"Oh?" Ying Zheng was curious, "What are their names now?"
Cheng Xiaoxiao frowned and thought for a moment before she said to the First Emperor, "Japan."
"Toyota?" The First Emperor was puzzled. He picked up the wine jar and took a sip. "Is it that barbaric place with a pitifully small population and no civilization?"
"Yes." Cheng Xiaoxiao nodded, her eyes narrowed slightly. "In fact, the reason they became so powerful is because of...Xu Fu."
Ying Zheng paused holding the wine jar, looked at Cheng Xiaoxiao and asked puzzledly, "Because of Xu Fu?"
He secretly complained in his heart, "Didn't Xu Fu go out to sea to find the elixir of immortality for himself? How did he get involved with Japan?"
"Yeah," Cheng Xiaoxiao replied, "You sent him out to sea to find the elixir of life, didn't you? He didn't find it, but he was afraid you'd blame him and chop off his head."
"So he took the young boys and girls, along with the skilled craftsmen, warriors, and archers you assigned him, and established himself as king in that land. He multiplied and flourished, never to return to Great Qin."
"He also taught the barbarians farming knowledge, fishing, salt making and other techniques."
"They even gave the Qin Dynasty's medical and other advanced technologies to those natives. In our world, they worship Xu Fu as a god."
"Bang!" The First Emperor smashed the wine jar heavily on the table, splashing the wine.
Ying Zheng suddenly realized something, as if he had been enlightened. "No wonder, I thought they had met with an accident. It turns out they didn't do their job well and were afraid of being blamed by me, so they simply didn't come back."
"Oh!" He gave a sarcastic laugh, "How dare you lie to me."
He picked up the wine bottle and drank the wine in one gulp, with murderous intent flashing in his eyes.
Ying Zheng flicked his sleeves and said expressionlessly, "Anyone who bullies me, no matter where he hides, I will tear him into pieces."
Cheng Xiaoxiao said, "Ancestor, the matter of Xu Fu can be put aside for now. The most urgent matter now is Hu Hai..."
The First Emperor deeply agreed with this.
Compared to deception, he cares more about the Qin Dynasty.
Ying Zheng would never allow the Second Emperor of Qin to perish, otherwise he would be ashamed to face his ancestors.
Just then.
Fusu led his troops and escorted Hu Hai into the hall...
Cheng Xiaoxiao stared at Hu Hai's face for a while and realized how important good genes are.
Although Hu Hai is notorious in history, it cannot be denied that his appearance was indeed outstanding.
If there were no records in history books, Cheng Xiaoxiao felt that her three views would probably have been influenced by her five senses.
Even... maybe they would think Hu Hai was a good person.
Ying Zheng narrowed his eyes and looked at Hu Hai, his "youngest son" whom he still doted on.
Although Hu Hai was a little reckless and naughty on a daily basis, it was not serious.
Ying Zheng really couldn't believe that Hu Hai would later collude with treacherous villains such as Zhao Gao and Li Si to tamper with his will, sentence Fusu to death, and completely destroy the eternal foundation of the Qin Dynasty in his hands.
When Hu Hai saw the First Emperor, he immediately broke free from the guards who were holding him and fell to his knees on the ground with a plop.
At this moment, the First Emperor looked at Hu Hai, who was kneeling in the center of the hall with an indignant look on his face. He suddenly realized that he seemed to have never seen this son clearly.
"Father." Hu Hai's indignant voice came.
"I don't know how I have offended you, brother, to have you arrest me in front of the entire city. Father, please help me!"
He raised his head and glanced cautiously at the First Emperor, then spoke in an ambiguous tone, "And...my brother also said that he was following your orders to arrest me."
Upon hearing this, the First Emperor was stunned. If he had heard these words on ordinary days, he would have thought that Hu Hai was asking for confirmation from him. Even if he had heard another meaning, he would have thought that he was overthinking.
But now... Ying Zheng doesn't think so.
The implication of Hu Hai's words just now was clearly that Fusu was falsely conveying the imperial edict...
The First Emperor looked at Hu Hai who was kneeling below him and said calmly, "Yes, I asked Fusu to arrest you."
Hu Hai, who was kneeling on the ground, was stunned. He didn't expect that it was really his father who asked his brother to go.
He glanced at Fusu secretly, and he thought that Fusu was falsely conveying the imperial edict.
