You're kidding me!
Keep fooling me, you little rascal!
I don't believe you, you big dummy!
I can believe anyone, but I can't believe what you, Li Lin, that brat, say.
If I couldn't hear your true feelings, I would have been fooled by your apparent loyalty.
"Oh dear, I made a promise before, and I've already spoken to Xiao He who has arrived in Xianyang. You can't expect me to go back on my word, can you? Here's what we'll do: I know your patriotic heart. The Xiongnu lack a prestigious envoy to negotiate with their Chanyu Modu. How about we arrange it like this for now? After you return from your mission to the Xiongnu, I'll find an excuse to reinstate you as Chancellor."

Besides, who told you to resign before? I genuinely believed you wanted to resign from the position of Prime Minister, which is why I ordered the Blackwater Bureau to work overtime to find Xiao He, whom you recommended... Could it be that you are now blaming me?"
Ying Zheng's helpless look made Li Lin feel a strange sense of irony.
"Your humble servant would not dare."
"You old codger, what 'out of consideration for face'? It's obvious you just don't like me! You wait, I'll take it out on Fusu later. I can't control you, but I can control my student!"
"Hahaha, Minister Li, you haven't eaten breakfast yet, have you? Come, come, have breakfast with me. Later, accompany me to the post station and see the arrogance of that Xiongnu envoy!"
