After Hu Hai returned, Lin Ze concentrated on how to rush to control the overall situation as soon as possible after receiving the news of the great changes in Chang'an.
The land of Shu is not far from Chang'an, but the capital of Shu is still far away from Chang'an. Due to the rugged road and the need to cross mountains and ridges, even if elites like the Sirius Army work hard to get from the capital of Shu to Chang'an, it will still take ten days.
However, if a sixth-level martial artist like Lin Ze rushes at all costs, it should take less than three days.
Ten days doesn't seem like a long time, but according to Lin Ze's knowledge, if the road in the north is intact, it will only take fifteen days to travel from the north to Chang'an.
If you are unable to control the overall situation in a short time, the longer things are delayed, the more trouble you will have.
So Lin Ze issued an order, ordering Han Xin to lead an army of 50,000 to annihilate the bandits in Nanzheng County, Shu.
Nanzheng belongs to the northernmost part of Shu, and is at most six days' journey from Chang'an.
Moreover, Lin Ze couldn't pin all his hopes on Zhao Gao, he had to find some foreign aid.
Thinking of this, Lin Ze quickly wrote three letters and put them away, waiting to be sent out at any time.
…
In Xianyang Palace, the former mighty and domineering Emperor Qin had a haggard face. After he vomited blood that day, in just twenty days, he went from youth to old age.
Emperor Qin could clearly feel the condition of his body. His soul was still extremely powerful. Even an ordinary master would still be no match for him. The master's power was still surging. He could still cause mountains to collapse and the earth to break apart.
It's just that this body has begun to collapse.
To be precise, Emperor Qin's body was slowly collapsing because it could not withstand this "great" soul and its shocking power.
Ever since Emperor Qin broke through to the half-step realm of immortality, this shortcoming has slowly appeared.
It's not that Emperor Qin didn't want to remedy the problem, he had been looking for various ways to strengthen his body since the beginning of this shortcoming.
Whether it was heavenly materials and earthly treasures that could enhance physical fitness, or heavenly secret techniques that could strengthen physical fitness, Emperor Qin had tried many of them.
However, it was of no use at all.
Ever since Emperor Qin broke the barrier between the eighth-level divine soul realm and the ninth-level celestial realm of immortality and broke through the half-step of immortality, Emperor Qin's cultivation level, which had not increased in nearly a hundred years, began to increase uncontrollably.
At first, Emperor Qin was happy. Although he had adopted an unusual method, the increase in martial arts cultivation was real.
It was not until later that his martial arts cultivation began to backfire on him that Emperor Qin realized that this increase in cultivation was not a good thing.
For three years, Emperor Qin suppressed the collapse of the body for a full three years. He tried every means, including using the energy and blood of other warriors to integrate into his own body, slowing down the speed of collapse, and looking for a better way.
From the sixth-grade warriors at the beginning to the second-grade warriors some time ago, Emperor Qin had tried all their qi and blood. Without exception, they were only effective at the beginning, but over time they were no longer effective.
It's like using too much of the same medicine and developing resistance.
To this day, it is difficult to return to the past, and Emperor Qin has to consider the future of the Qin Empire and prepare for funeral arrangements.
Clapping his hands gently, Da Siming appeared in front of Emperor Qin as always, bowing and waiting for instructions.
Emperor Qin asked hoarsely: "How are Fusu and Hu Hai doing lately?"
Da Siming bowed and replied: "Master Fusu has recently begun to hold schools in the North, intending to educate the surrendered barbarians in the North so that they can become our subjects of the Qin Dynasty."
"As for Young Master Hu Hai, he has been leading troops to hunt down the remnants of the barbarians recently, trying to eradicate the barbarians in Shu. By the way, Young Master Hu Hai has recently broken through to the sixth level of martial arts."
Emperor Qin was silent after hearing this. The personalities of his two sons were really very different.
A person who is rigid and upholds ridiculous benevolence and righteousness, but is also indecisive, is unlikely to become a great person.
One has been lively and cheerful since he was a child. Although he is a bit naive, he is decisive and unambiguous in killing. It is a pity that he is not the eldest son.
Does the Qin Dynasty want a benevolent monarch, or a decisive and murderous monarch?
Emperor Qin glanced at Da Siming and said hoarsely: "In your opinion, among Fu Su and Hu Hai, who is more suitable to inherit the throne?"
Da Siming bowed and replied: "I don't know, this matter is of great importance, and your Majesty must make a decision."
Emperor Qin sighed slightly and waved his hand for Da Siming to retreat.
Emperor Qin reached out from his waist and took out a jade pendant engraved with the word "Fei" and placed it on the table in front of him.
The jade that Emperor Qin took out was the jade that Han Fei had worn during his lifetime. Before he died in death row, he specifically asked the jailer to give this jade to Emperor Qin.
After Emperor Qin got the piece of jade, he kept it with him and took it out from time to time to look at it.
Seeing things and thinking about people, Emperor Qin thought of the talented young man again and murmured to himself: "Han Fei, I have failed after all. You said that the gods will revive and bring trouble to the world, but there is really a god in this world.
Do people exist? If they exist, where are they hiding? Why can't they break through?"
"You once calculated that I can secure the throne and dominate the world. Did you still calculate it to this day? If you could always sincerely plan for me, why did you end up in a miserable end? Or maybe you had already known your fate.
The outcome, but unwilling to change?"
Perhaps it was due to the fact that people were about to die, Emperor Qin felt much more emotional today than before.
Emperor Qin sighed and tried to put away the jade pendant, but the jade pendant suddenly shone brightly and collapsed into pieces, revealing the four words "Live to Death".
Qin Huang stood up suddenly, stared at these four words, and said in a voiceless voice: "Han Fei, is that you?"
However, the broken jade pendant could not speak. The light suddenly poured into Emperor Qin's body.
Emperor Qin suddenly had a sudden enlightenment.
Then Qin Huang couldn't help but cough, one after another, the sound became louder and louder, and even blood began to appear at the corner of his mouth.
Zhao Gao, who heard a strange sound outside the palace, rushed in immediately and said with a panicked look: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, what's wrong with you? I'll go and ask for the imperial doctor right away."
Emperor Qin straightened his body, calmed his body slightly, and said hoarsely: "Wait a minute, Zhao Gao, I'm afraid the deadline is coming, and someone else will be in charge of this Great Qin."
Zhao Gao's eyes turned red, and he said quickly: "Your Majesty's lucky stars are shining brightly, and he will definitely be safe and sound. I will go find the imperial doctor right now, and there will definitely be a solution."
Emperor Qin waved his hand and said, "You don't have to waste your efforts. After I leave, you can assist Hu Hai in succeeding to the throne. Then order Fusu to assist his younger brother, and together we can protect my land of thousands of miles."
"As for my great gift, there is no need to go to such trouble. I will enter the Lishan Mausoleum on my own and return to peace."
After all, he was like a giant black dragon, soaring into the sky and circling Chang'an before heading towards Lishan Mountain.
Today, officials and civilians who were building an extension of the palace mausoleum in Lishan watched helplessly as a black dragon flew into the main mausoleum. Then all the mechanisms of the Lishan mausoleum were activated and the tomb chamber was closed.
The young official in charge of the construction of the Lishan Mausoleum did not know that Emperor Qin entered the mausoleum on his own initiative. He was shocked and realized that a disaster was imminent. The mausoleum's mechanism was activated for no reason and the tomb chamber was locked. This was a serious crime.
You know, this mechanism is dead. Once it is closed, even the grandmaster cannot open it from the outside.
Once Your Majesty takes the blame, it will be a serious crime to confiscate the family and exterminate the clan.
In Xianyang Palace, Zhao Gao stood dumbly on the spot. His good majesty was suddenly gone? The friendship between monarch and ministers that had lasted for hundreds of years was suddenly broken?
After a long time, Zhao Gao came to his senses, knelt at the door of Yangxin Hall, kowtowed three times, and said loudly: "I respectfully send your Majesty to death."
When I got up again, tears were streaming down my face.
