His fists clenched involuntarily, and his nails almost pierced his palms.
How could he not want to become a man again? He woke up from countless nightmares, all of which were the scene in the cleansing room.
Now that he had the chance to grow it back, he was so excited that he almost cried.
Ying Yinman glanced at Ying Zheng beside her, and then explained the origin of the time and space coin to Gao Yao.
After hearing that gold and other extraordinary things can be exchanged for time and space coins, Gao Yao suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind.
The tiger-shaped jade pendant in Yi Xiaochuan's hand must be worth a lot of money.
In addition, he had heard about the stars in the sky, and the First Emperor even planned to use them to build his own palace in the imperial mausoleum...
"Thank you, Princess Yin Man." He said sincerely.
After turning around and thanking Ying Zheng again, Gao Yao prepared to leave with a surging heart.
He planned to go back to make money, accumulate gold, let his brothers grow up, and then plan revenge on Liu Bang and Yi Xiaochuan.
Now Liu Bang is hiding like a stray dog, and it takes some effort to find his location.
Yi Xiaochuan was supervising the construction of the imperial mausoleum, which was about to be completed, so it was easy to catch him! Three to five thousand time and space coins, that is, three to five thousand kilograms of gold, were not easy to collect.
Fortunately, Zhao Gao's status is no longer what it used to be, and he can make up for it with some effort.
As for what he had promised Ying Zheng, he was not prepared to go back on his word.
He yearns for power, but he just doesn't want to be bullied. In fact, he is not that obsessed.
Otherwise, "later" he would not have been so focused on killing Yi Xiaochuan for revenge, instead of using his immortality to gain wealth and status.
"Wait a minute." Ying Zheng suddenly spoke.
Gao Yao stopped and asked in confusion, "Brother Zheng, do you have any other advice?"
Ying Zheng laughed and said, "With your current mortal body, even if you go back, it will be difficult for you to do anything, right?"
Seeing Gao wanted to speak, he smiled and said, "I'll give you a set of combat uniforms that will be enough for you to change the situation quickly!"
Having said that, he took out a set of Mark V combat uniforms stored in his storage ring.
This Iron Man suit is worth five hundred time and space coins, which can be considered to be of high value.
Ying Zheng held the battle armor in both hands and handed it forward.
Gao Yao was stunned.
He took the battle suit in a daze and learned how to use it under Ying Zheng's guidance.
After learning its value, his eyes became slightly red.
His knees went weak and he was about to fall to the ground, but Ying Zheng supported him.
"Brother Zheng, I..."
Seeing Gao Yao's grateful expression, Ying Zheng was completely relieved.
He smiled and said, "It's fate that we can enter the tavern. We should support each other. Besides, I also have selfish motives. I hope that the Qin Empire in another world will still exist, so you don't have to do this."
Gao Yao stood up and said in a deep voice: "Brother Zheng, don't worry, as long as I am here, Daqin will always stand firm!"
Ying Zheng smiled and patted his shoulder. After giving him some encouragement, he watched Gao Yao leave.
His eyes flickered, and no one knew what he was thinking about.
On the other hand, Zhu Youjian was full of admiration.
He thought to himself that if Li Zicheng, Nurhaci and his ilk appeared in the tavern, he would never give them a good face.
The other people in the tavern who knew the inside story had basically the same idea.
Even Su Luo cast a strange look at Ying Zheng.
"As expected of an emperor of all ages, such a broad mind is rare." He nodded secretly.
…
Gao Yao has returned to the palace.
He tidied himself up, put on the Iron Man suit, and immediately went to see the emperor.
The health of the First Emperor of this world has long been deteriorating, and he is now working hard to develop an elixir of immortality.
When he saw him, Gao Yao had a complicated look in his eyes.
Originally, he planned to poison him to death and support Hu Hai to take the throne as soon as possible.
But after coming into contact with Ying Zheng in the tavern, he gave up this idea.
As for using the tavern's resources to help him achieve immortality, he had no intention of doing that.
Firstly, Brother Zheng didn't even mention it, and secondly, during the conversation, he guessed what the other party was thinking.
Although Ying Zheng did not want the Qin Dynasty in this world to be overthrown, he did not have much good feelings towards the First Emperor and obviously wanted to let nature take its course.
Gao Yao also planned to do so.
Even though Fusu and he don't get along, the two of them are not on the same level now, and he believes that the other party will understand.
If Fusu is not tactful, then consider replacing him with Hu Hai.
"Zhao Gao, what's the matter?" Looking at Gao Yao who was very respectful, the First Emperor asked.
Gao Yao glanced at the wine glass in his hand, then looked at Concubine Li Yu Shu who was recalled from the cold palace, and secretly despised her in his heart.
He found that this First Emperor was not comparable at all to Zheng Ge, whom he met in the tavern.
But today he no longer poisoned the wine glass.
After all, this is "Brother Zheng" from another world, and he has to give him some respect.
Even though the First Emperor in front of him didn't have much time left to live.
Of course, it's just a little bit.
He had often suffered in front of him on a daily basis, and allowing him to die of old age was already a matter of consideration for "Brother Zheng's" face.
"Your Majesty, I request that you arrest Meng Yi!" Gao Yao bowed slightly and spoke.
Meng Yi is Yi Xiaochuan.
"Why?" The First Emperor frowned.
He did not notice Concubine Li whose expression changed drastically.
Gao Yao straightened his body and said calmly: "Because Meng Yi had an affair with your concubine, Concubine Li, the two of them secretly committed adultery, which is a serious crime of deceiving the emperor!"
Concubine Li was about to kneel down and argue, but she heard the Emperor Qin Shi Huang shout angrily: "Do you have any evidence? If you dare to frame you again, do you think I really dare not chop off your head?!"
Meng Yi was the general he relied on most, and under his supervision the imperial mausoleum was about to be completed on schedule.
Concubine Li was his favorite concubine. He had been upset for a long time because he had banished her to the cold palace. Now this guy actually dared to talk nonsense.
To his surprise, Gao Yao did not kneel down in fear as he had done in the past when he was angry. Instead, he looked at him fearlessly and said, "If Your Majesty wants evidence, it is very simple."
The First Emperor stared at Gao Yao in front of him. Seeing that he was walking around with his hands behind his back, he decided to punish this guy severely. He said coldly, "Do you have any evidence?"
"Many people have seen Meng Yi and Concubine Li having a secret meeting. Moreover, Meng Yi is young and promising, but he has never married. Your Majesty, don't you find it strange?" Gao Yao said.
After hearing what he said, doubts began to arise in the Emperor's heart again.
"Even if those rumors are false, this matter does damage your majesty's dignity," Gao Yao continued, "and as a minister, maintaining your majesty's reputation is the most important thing, so..."
Gao Yao's smile was somewhat sinister. He glanced at Concubine Li and then said, "I have a suggestion."
"What?" asked the First Emperor coldly.
Gao Yao raised his right hand, made a light stroke in the air, and said, "Why not let General Meng suffer the same fate as me!"
Castrate?
The First Emperor was startled for a moment, then he became interested.
He had met Meng Yi and knew that he was handsome.
If it was said that Concubine Li was in love with Meng Yi, he actually believed it a little, but he really couldn't bear to let her go.
Concubine Li couldn't help herself and fell to her knees. "Your Majesty, please don't listen to this man's slander. If you treat a loyal general like this, how will the world see you?"
"Oh, you can't help it now and are begging for mercy for your lover?" Gao Yao sneered.
"You, a eunuch, don't even think about deceiving the emperor!" Concubine Li Yu Shu glared at him and left.
"I'm afraid that one day when you get pregnant, you'll accuse me of deceiving the emperor."
Seeing the two people arguing in front of him, the First Emperor became more and more upset.
"How outrageous!" he said angrily.
The two of them fell silent immediately.
He looked at Concubine Li with a slightly cold expression: "You step back first!"
The other party kept protecting Meng Yi, which made him very depressed.
Then he looked at Gao Yao again.
This guy's attitude today was particularly insolent, and his words made me even more furious. He really deserved to die.
If it weren't for their old friendship, he would have wanted to execute him on the spot, but after all, Gao Yao's words and the way he handled things won his heart.
"Zhao Gao, you are talking nonsense! How disrespectful!" He slammed the table and shouted angrily, "Go and receive a hundred strokes of the cane!"
Gao Yao stood still.
He smiled and said, "Your Majesty, you don't want to lose the throne, do you?"
