564, Manipulating Qin Yiren

With the power of being superior to others, it is difficult to rely solely on moral restraint. Unless you are a saint, ordinary people will definitely degenerate into evil spirits after being restrained by morality for a period of time. Xiang Shaolong was not a decent person to begin with, maybe he had a chivalrous heart, but after what happened today, his change... was inevitable.

This incident was within the expectations of the man in the mirror.

Without Wu Tingfang, there is another person. Even when Xiang Shaolong himself is in crisis, he will definitely use Taoism to resolve the crisis.

Lu Buwei was horrified and tried his best to cough out the talisman in his throat, but found that he couldn't do it. He opened his eyes wide and said angrily: "Xiang Shaolong, what did you drink for us?"

"Young Master Xiang, if you have anything you can tell me, Wu Tingfang, right? I can order the Qin envoy to negotiate with the King of Zhao to bring her back to Qin. Also... titles, official residences, beauties, etc., you Whatever you want, I will give you whatever I want. I only want one thing from you, take out that thing..."

Qin Yiren was much softer than Lu Buwei, and he begged for mercy when he opened his mouth.

Xiang Shaolong didn't answer and silently recited a spell. Soon the eyes of the monarch and his ministers returned to calmness. They called him "Master" and surrendered quickly.

The last time the talisman paper was given to Zhao Ji, Zhao Ji had a bad temperament, so the talisman paper took effect very quickly. However, Qin Yiren and Lu Buwei were both momentary figures, and they were not easy to subdue, so they still needed to recite the spell.

The person in the mirror looked at this scene coldly.

He watched Xiang Shaolong with his Qi-gazing technique. Today, Xiang Shaolong is already plagued by calamity energy. The Dragon of Qin's destiny is impacting Xiang Shaolong's destiny. If Xiang Shaolong hadn't practiced Taoism and could resist a little, otherwise it would just be Qin's energy. With this collision of the Dragon of Luck, Xiang Shaolong's luck will immediately disappear...

"It's strange, Xiang Shaolong's luck..."

Under the impact of the Dragon of Qin's Luck, even though Xiang Shaolong's luck was different from ordinary people, it was still in danger. However, Xiang Shaolong's luck was extremely strange. Just as it was almost scattered, there was something else, I don't know. The luck that came from nowhere made up for the shortfall, making it a little more solid.

"It's the identity of a time traveler."

"His luck not only existed in the Warring States Period, but also in Hong Kong Island in the future world. Just like a mirror, his luck in the Warring States Period is just a mirror image of the future world. Also, otherwise, a person's luck has a beginning and an end, and time travel Obviously, you can't take away your own luck..."

The mirror murmured.

What is a chosen one?

As long as he survives after traveling through another world and time and space, then he will be the chosen one. Xiang Shaolong was the Chosen One during the Warring States Period. In terms of basic dignity, none of the seven kings can match him.

"Issue an order to demand Wu Tingfang, remember not to let Wu Tingfang suffer even the slightest bit of torture."

"Hurry up, it won't be too late."

Xiang Shaolong was immediately satisfied when he saw the respectful relationship between the monarch and his ministers. Then he remembered the reason why he rebelled, and ordered Qin Yi to be humane.

It was really too far from Xianyang of Qin State to Gandan of Zhao State. Even if he wanted to save him, he would not be able to do anything. Not to mention that Zhao Li is still in Gandan. Although he is confident that his current strength has surpassed Zhao Li, but as the man in the mirror said, Zhao Li is the disaster that prevents him from becoming an immortal. If he does not practice enough, he can crush him. Zhao Li would not go out easily if he was suppressed to such an extent.

"Yes, Master!"

Qin Yiren nodded.

At this moment, the sound of footsteps was heard outside the door.

It was the imperial guards who discovered the abnormality outside the palace.

Qin Jun rushed in.

"Your Majesty, where is the assassin?"

The leading General Qin swept the hall and saw Qin Yiren who was fine. He immediately knelt on the ground and asked.

The guards outside the palace were all knocked down, and it looked like a master had broken into the palace. However, Qin Yiren was fine at the moment, and no one dared to act rashly.

Qin Yiren stepped down from Danbi and signaled that there was no one behind him and no one was threatening him, so as to dispel the concerns of the general of the Forbidden Army. He pondered for a moment and said: "Just now, an assassin in black broke into the palace and wanted to assassinate me. But when he heard the noise outside the palace, he saw that he could not win for a while and ran away. You must catch this person, otherwise... "

As he spoke, he dropped the bronze sword in his hand.

When Xiang Shaolong broke into the palace earlier, he and Lu Buwei both drew their swords in time to resist. Although it was of no use, they still gave the appearance of fighting the assassin.

Seeing this, the generals of the Forbidden Army were not suspicious and took the order.

Later, Qin Yiren summoned the eunuch order and ordered him to send a letter to the Qin envoy stationed in Zhao State, asking him to rescue Wu Tingfang at all costs.

Xiang Shaolong received a satisfactory answer and exited the palace.

"Mr. Bai, I'm sorry. I didn't listen to you and abused Taoism. But I can't help it. Wu Tingfang is my wife. We have made a lifelong promise. I can't just die without saving her."

Returning to the mansion given by Qin Yiren, Xiang Shaolong apologized to the man in the mirror.

When the man in the mirror taught him Taoism before, he made him swear an oath not to use the Taoism to do evil. Now, even though he has done no evil, he still has the King of Qin and the Prime Minister of Qin in his hands. This kind of behavior is no longer much different from committing evil.

"you……"

The man in the mirror sighed, "It's understandable that you are willing to do this for the one you love. But...after you do this, there is no turning back. When we were in the palace, I wanted to dissuade you. But when it came to Wu Tingfang’s life, I held back and didn’t say anything. It has already become a big mistake.”

"It depends on your luck."

After that, the man in the mirror disappeared, and Xiang Shaolong's luck appeared in the bronze mirror.

The black energy spreads, and misfortune ensues...

"this……"

Although Xiang Shaolong didn't understand the secret of Qi Watching, he was still shocked when he saw such a scene.

"Humanity has luck, not to mention that Qin Yiren is the King of Qin. He has the most popularity among the seven kings. If you use Taoism on him, you will inevitably suffer backlash."

The person in the mirror sighed, "But it's not like there are no opportunities to make amends."

"What is a fairy?"

"One person and one mountain are immortals. Immortals have the power to move mountains, and it is not difficult to subdue humanity. As long as you reach the realm of building a foundation in a hundred days as soon as possible, you can barely resist these disasters."

"When you reach the realm of golden elixir, you can practice elixir for thousands of calamities, and even disasters can be turned into nutrients."

He said slowly.

"Mr. Bai, you didn't stop me at the palace. It seems that you were prepared for a long time..."

Xiang Shaolong's eyes showed deep gratitude.

He acted recklessly in the palace, but the man in the mirror did not stop him because he knew Wu Tingfang had to save him. Then he found a way to resolve his crisis...

The man in the mirror was so kind to him.

"It's just a small matter." The man in the mirror shook his head, "On the way to Qin, you have gradually achieved the results of Ziwu Gong, and you can enter the realm of hundred days of foundation building. You just want to enter the realm of hundred days of foundation building." In this state, it is best to have a spiritual medicine to help you escape from the mortal world. When I was in this state, it was because I had a White Deer Immortal Grass..."

It takes a hundred days to build the foundation, and it is best to have the help of fairy grass. Of course, even without the assistance of fairy grass, a hundred-day foundation building can be completed, but such a hundred-day foundation building will take a long time and the potential will be much less.

"In this world..., I wonder if there is any fairy grass..."

Xiang Shaolong looked sad.

Everyone knows that fairy grass is better for foundation building, but where can he find fairy grass? Anything that can be called fairy grass, without exception, is definitely a rare treasure.

"Shaolong, I will teach you Taoism, but the fairy grass... forgive me for not being able to help you."

The person in the mirror pondered for a moment, "You are now entering the realm of foundation building for a hundred days. As for the fairy grass, if you encounter it during this period, and then practice it into your body, if you can't encounter it, you can only give up."

Xiang Shaolong also understood the meaning of the man in the mirror.

He can't just let the person in the mirror help him with everything. Furthermore, the man in the mirror is now living in the mirror, so there is no way he can help him find some fairy grass.

"I will ask the King of Qin and the Prime Minister of Qin to help me search the world for fairy grass."

Xiang Shaolong suddenly said.

It suddenly occurred to him that he now controlled the most powerful person in the world. Just because he couldn't find the fairy grass didn't mean that these two couldn't find it. Even if he couldn't find it, it would be much easier than trying to find it by himself. It shouldn't be difficult to find a piece of fairy grass by mobilizing the power of the Qin State.

"It's just about how to identify the fairy grass. It shouldn't be that easy to find."

"Please also ask Mr. Bai to teach me how to find fairy grass."

Xiang Shaolong cupped his hands and said.

If the fairy grass was too different from other grass plants, the world would have found it long ago. It is precisely because it is difficult to distinguish between grass jelly and ordinary grass plants, so jelly grass is precious.

"This is a simple matter, just come here..."

The man in the mirror said calmly.

…

Zhao Guo, Gandan.

Above the court.

"My consort, Wu Tingfang is what my king demands. If the State of Zhao refuses to give it, don't blame me, the State of Qin, for the troops coming to the city. When the time comes, the people of the State of Zhao will be in ruins, but that is not what my king wants."

The Qin envoy in black cupped his hands and said.

He was a bit out of place among the Zhu Shang and Zhao ministers.

"Qin?"

Bai Gui turned around, glanced at the Qin envoy, and said jokingly: "Qin wants to attack Zhao Hu? If he had attacked Zhao, he would have done so long ago. Why wait until today? Although Zhao State lost 400,000 elites in the Changping War, we, Zhao State, uphold Wu Yong, even if your Qin army comes again, I, the State of Zhao, will not be afraid of you!"

"When did Zhao Guo look up to Qin Guo?"

After saying these two sentences, he raised the corner of his mouth and said, "But why did King Qin ask for Wu Tingfang? I heard that King Qin was already terminally ill, so he sent an envoy to take Qin's hostage back to his country. Now that King Qin has regained his power, he thought of women again? Not for national affairs, but for women? It’s ridiculous.”

Lin Xiangru used He's Bi to protect the dignity of the State of Zhao, and thus became the Prime Minister of the State of Zhao.

Wu Tingfang's matter... if done well, it will be of great benefit to him.

"this……"

The envoy of Qin was dumb and didn't know how to answer.

If it were something else, he might be able to refute Bai Gui. But the King of Qin suddenly asked for Wu Tingfang, and it was difficult for him to reply, and he couldn't estimate the price Wu Tingfang would cost in the King of Qin's heart. Can it be exchanged for gold and silver, can it be obtained through coercion and intimidation, or does it cost a higher price?

I don’t know what the chips are, so he has to be careful with his words and actions.

"Husband-in-law, since Wu Tingfang is my king's beloved object, please treat him kindly. I will come back to discuss with him tomorrow..."

Today, it was just to mention this matter in the Zhao court to save Wu Tingfang's life. As for the subsequent price, he will need to send a secret message later and discuss it with the King of Qin.

The next day.

The Qin envoy came to court again and said he was willing to exchange the city for Wu Tingfang.

These words are like a stone that stirs up a thousand waves.

She's just a woman, not a treasure like He's Bi. How could the King of Qin be so prodigal? Trade the city for a woman? Or someone you've never met?

"Yes! King Qin is so generous, I, the State of Zhao, have no choice but to agree..."

Bai Gui knew this very well. Even if he asked for half of Qin, Xiang Shaolong would probably be willing. After all, it's not painful for a son to sell his father's land. Of course, even if the King of Qin agreed to this, the various forces in Qin would not agree. The King of Qin was just their spokesperson for their interests. If it was King Zhaoxiang of Qin, it might be possible, but Qin Yiren had only been on the throne for a short time, so there was no possibility of giving up half of the territory.

So there needs to be a limit to the price.

"I want fifteen cities of Qin!"

He drew out his sword and scratched the territory of Qin on the sand table.

The next day, the Qin envoy agreed.

With this, Bai Gui's prestige in Zhao was unparalleled. Fifteen cities, this is not a small number. Only Qin has the confidence to offer fifteen cities. You know, at this moment, Han has only a small piece of land left, and it doesn't even have fifteen cities. Qi has a total territory of seventy-two cities. Fifteen cities is equivalent to a small country.

...

Qin, Xianyang.

In the court.

"How could the king be so unwise? Fifteen cities..., these are the fifteen cities that the ancestors of the Qin State conquered with great difficulty. Besides, the king has never met Wu Tingfang beforehand..."

"How beautiful is Wu Tingfang that the king is willing to cede fifteen cities to Zhao State."

"I heard that Wu Tingfang and Xiang Shaofu have a history. Could it be that the king appreciates Xiang Shaofu, so he is willing to cede fifteen cities in exchange for Wu Tingfang..."

"Impossible! Xiang Shaofu has just arrived and has not made any achievements. How can the king be willing to give up fifteen cities for him..."

The ministers whispered.

Fifteen cities, the ministers of Qin State did not expect that the king of Qin would be so stupid. If he coveted Wu Tingfang's beauty, it would be fine, but the king of Qin did not even meet Wu Tingfang. The king of Qin redeemed Wu Tingfang, but why was the starting point, they could not figure it out.

Xiang Shaolong, who was waiting on the side, saw this scene and his eyes flashed coldly.

If Wu Tingfang fell into someone else's hands, perhaps it wouldn't take such a long time, and only a little money would be needed to redeem Wu Tingfang. But Wu Tingfang fell into the Julu Marquis's Mansion. He knew how difficult the Julu Marquis' Mansion was, so he had to let the King of Qin come forward and pay such a high price.

Now the King of Qin's strange behavior has also aroused the suspicion of these Qin officials.

"The king is here."

At this moment, the eunuch's shrill voice came from outside the door.

The officials immediately stopped talking.

Qin Yiren walked into the hall, paused, glanced at the expressions of the officials, and then sat on the throne. He shook his head and said, "I have heard the discussions of all the beloved ministers, but Wu Tingfang involves Wu Shiluo, and Wu Shiluo has a secret, so I..."

This excuse is very clumsy, but it is indeed much better than greed for beauty.

The officials also looked relieved and gave the King of Qin a face.

It's just fifteen cities. For the Qin State today, the worst that can happen is another battle. Giving away fifteen cities is something the Qin State can afford.
