While the literary examination was in full swing in the Juxian Hall, the scene in the military camp outside the city of Xianyang was quite different.

Wang Ben, wearing armor and carrying a Qin sword on his waist, did not look as honest and honest as usual at all.

Exuding a genuine murderous intent, he rode his horse to the front of the military camp, looked at the soldiers guarding the gate, and shouted loudly.

"I am Wang Ben, Marquis of Tongwu. Let your general come out to receive my order!"

Although Wang Ben is not well-known in the court due to his personality and the Wang family's habit of hiding his shortcomings.

But in the army, the two words "Wang Ben" themselves mean victory.

Without asking Wang Ben to prove his identity, the old soldier guarding the camp gate quickly saluted with his fists, then ran into the camp to call for help.

"Marquis Tongwu, what's the matter?"

Looking at Meng Tian who hurried to the camp gate, Wang Ben took out a handwritten warrant and a token from his arms and lowered them over.

"Meng Tian, ​​I am hereby ordered by the Prince Regent to lead 5,000 Qin elite soldiers into the city, seal the city gates, and arrest the assassins who are trying to rebel!"

Hearing this, Meng Tian's pupils shrank slightly.

He waved his hand, and a deputy general following him quickly took a few steps, took Ying Yuan's handwritten edict and token from Wang Ben, and then handed it to Meng Tian.

Meng Tian knew it was true at just one glance.

But this is not what he cares about most at the moment.

"Why is there another assassination attempt?"

"Do you really think that there is no one in the Great Qin who can bully me?"

"Last time it was the remnants of the old Han Dynasty, what about this time?"

Wang Ben looked straight at Meng Tian and didn't say much.

"Just follow Gongzi Yuan's orders!"

"As for those rebels, when my sword is on their necks, they will naturally confess!"

Meng Tian looked at Wang Ben deeply, and then bowed silently.

"Meng Tian obeys the order!"

"Someone, seal the city gate!"

……

In the Zhangtai Palace, Xu Fu, who had white hair and a youthful face and looked like an immortal, walked slowly into the palace and bowed to the First Emperor.

"Xu Fu, meet your majesty!"

But the First Emperor, who was reading the memorials reviewed by his two sons, did not even raise his head.

"What's the matter?"

"Your Majesty, Xu Fu used that alien stone as a base material to perform calculations, and he actually got a glimpse of the fate of the Qin Empire!"

There was no trace of indignation on Xu Fu's face for being neglected by the First Emperor. Instead, he spoke of a horrifying incident with an expressionless face!
The fate of the Qin Empire?!
This is not something that ordinary people can hear!
It can even be said that anyone who dares to spy on the fate of the Qin Dynasty is guilty of a capital crime.

After hearing what Xu Fu said, Ying Zheng finally put down the memorial in his hand, looked at Xu Fu with cold eyes and said, "Speak."

There are no extra feelings, nor any extra emotions.

At this time, Ying Zheng was the greatest emperor of all time, the First Emperor whose achievements surpassed those of the Three Sovereigns.

Now that he has spoken, you can only carry it out!

When Xu Fu heard Ying Zheng's attitude, his eyes suddenly flashed, and then he took out a tortoise shell from his sleeve pocket, held it high above his head, and slowly said:

"The one who destroyed Qin is Hu!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire palace was filled with murderous intent!
Not to mention the sharp sword-wielding warriors whose breathing became disordered after hearing these words, the murderous aura of Ying Zheng, the greatest emperor of all time, alone was more powerful than that of thousands of troops!

Gao Zhan, who had been pretending to be invisible, walked quickly to Xu Fu.

He took the tortoise shell directly and then placed it carefully on the table in front of the First Emperor.

At this moment, a faint silver light was flashing on the burnt black tortoise shell.

These silver lights intertwined and twisted with each other, and finally came together to form the four words "The one who will destroy Qin is Hu".

Facing such a strange sight, Gao Zhan wished he could stay far away from it, not wanting to even look at it!

Looking at the tortoise shell in front of him, the First Emperor snorted coldly, and then spoke sternly.

"The one who destroyed Qin was Hu?"

"Aren't you talking about the barbarians in the northern border?"

"How could such a person destroy our Great Qin?"

"Humph, since they have such ambitions, they deserve to be exterminated by their clan!"

"Send an order, order Meng Tian to go to Dai County and take charge. In this fight with the Xiongnu, anyone taller than a horse's back, regardless of gender, will be killed!"

After saying that, the First Emperor picked up a tiger talisman on the table and threw it into Gao Zhan's arms.

Gao Zhan quickly raised the tiger talisman and nodded in response, then ran out in a hurry!
Seeing that the First Emperor made the decision so easily, Xu Fu couldn't help but look grim.

He raised his head and looked at the First Emperor solemnly, saying, "Your Majesty, if a war breaks out between the Qin and Xiongnu, will both sides suffer heavy casualties?"

"If the decree that Your Majesty just issued is still there, then not only the people of this world, but even people in future generations will regard Your Majesty as a tyrant!"

"Why do you do this?"

"Your Majesty, please think twice!"

At this time, Xu Fu did not look like a so-called immortal master at all. Instead, he looked like an imperial censor who was concerned about the country and the people.

He actually looked compassionate and began to consider the reputation of the Qin Dynasty and the First Emperor.

But when these words fell into the ears of the First Emperor, it was a different story.

He stared at Xu Fu opposite him with his eyes sparkling with brilliance and said sternly.

"tyrant?"

"Why do I need others' approval for my actions?"

"Even if people in this world and future generations say that I am a tyrant, so what?"

"Back then, the princes were divided, wars were constant, and the people of the world were displaced!"

"It is I who will unify the world and put an end to wars!"

"It is I who allow the people to farm without fear of war!"

"It is I who make sure that there is only one country in this world and that we all need to listen to one voice!"

"In that case, then, to oppose me is to oppose this country!"

"Similarly, those who oppose the Qin Dynasty are opposing me!"

"Then, facing these thugs, the Great Qin should defeat them and kill them all!"

The First Emperor stroked the 'Heavenly Question Sword' which never left his waist, and looked coldly at Xu Fu in front of him, with waves of murderous intent as if they were real.

"Xu Fu!"

"You are just an alchemist, so just make your own elixir!"

"Don't worry about the rest that you shouldn't worry about!"

Hearing what the First Emperor said, Xu Fu broke out in a cold sweat.

This is both a warning and a threat at the same time.

At this moment, Xu Fu was trembling all over!

This is fear, the fear that one day one might be torn into pieces or even left with no trace left.

But at the same time, wasn't he excited?
The feeling of being on the brink of life and death, and possibly dying at the next moment, is extremely exciting.

Xu Fu came to Xianyang and took great risks to make elixir in front of the First Emperor, but he did not come here to seek death.

He is looking for an opportunity!
An opportunity to realize your ambitions!

That's right, the danger seems to be greater than he imagined! (End of this chapter)
