Datang: Longevity for Thousands of Years, Exposed by Xiao Sizi

Chapter 31 The end of everything, the Qin family is worthy of the late emperor’s trust!
"The First Emperor..."

Li Junxian murmured.

Through this letter, he seemed to see how a man in a black dragon robe was unwilling to write this bamboo slip in his current position seven or eight hundred years ago.

I couldn't help but ponder in my mind, if the First Emperor had really found immortality back then, then the future of the Qin Dynasty... would it not just end with the Second Emperor?

But this can only be imagination, because things have already happened and can never be changed.

As for the various speculations about Qin Shihuang's immortality, just as everyone has their own ideas, he speculated that the Qin Dynasty would go further, but there were certainly people who speculated that it was no more than that.

After all, everyone is a different individual.

"I opened the new black box."

Meng Xing spoke and looked at Li Junxian and others.

He opened the black box without reminding others just now because Li Junxian and others were looking forward to the next box, but at this moment, the death of the First Emperor made them all fall into deep thought, even melancholy.

This is also a reminder.

"Brother Meng, please open it."

Li Junxian took a deep breath and responded.

Meng Xing nodded and slowly opened the new black box.

Take out the new bamboo slips and check them.

【The First Emperor is dead….】

Opening lightning strike!
The pupils of Meng Xing and others shrank.

Even though they knew that this was an established fact, and Qin Shihuang himself had vaguely sensed that he was about to die when he picked up the bamboo slips, they still couldn't help but feel shocked when they saw the confirmed bamboo slips again.

After all, that man... passed away~

Everyone couldn't help feeling a little lonely.

then.

They continued to look down.

[His Highness Fusu is also dead, and I... Dad, the little brat who always worshipped you and followed you around, Qin Yao, has also grown up.]

[Dad, when I was little I always thought you would come back, but when I grew up I finally understood why you told me something with tears in your eyes on the last day we met. It turned out that... that day was our final farewell.]

[It's so unfair, so unfair! I didn't say goodbye to you! There were countless days and nights over the years when I wanted to enter the ancient tomb, tear open your icy coffin, and take you out.]

[But I… held it in, huh… I held it in, I held it in~]

[Perhaps, it is better to hold back, because the Qin Dynasty today is no longer the Qin Dynasty you knew back then.]

[His Highness Fusu has died. The third brother led an army of 10,000 people to fight Xiang Yu in the west. He was no match for Xiang Yu and was defeated and captured.]

[He…did not lose face for our Qin family. Facing many temptations from Xiang Yu, he never surrendered until his death. In the end, he found an opportunity to take a sword and fought and killed ten of Xiang Yu’s soldiers. He, Marquis Dingyuan, died on the battlefield! He lived up to the trust of the First Emperor!]

[The boss is dead too. Over the years, everyone has seen the boss's incompetence. Some people despise him, while others still treat him the same because of your glory. In short... he has experienced almost all the ups and downs of human nature, but even so, he has not forgotten his original intention and fights for the Qin family.]

[He… led his army and died in the battle to defend Qiao County, becoming the Zhuge Zhan in your story. He is worthy of our Qin family.]

[The second brother died too, haha… The second brother was a fool. He was hit too hard. He heard that the eldest and the third brother died in battle. He didn’t believe it. He took a horse and rushed out of Xianyang City to look for the two. 】【Later, our Qin soldiers found his body on the way to Qiao County. He was killed by robbers. 】

[Old Second... this fool, fool~ He doesn't even think about how chaotic the Qin Dynasty is right now. If he runs out as a person without any force, there will be chaos everywhere, and there will be bandits everywhere. In this environment full of dangers and surrounded by wolves and tigers, how can he... survive? ]

[This fool~This fool! Huh... Dad, maybe these things wouldn't happen if you were still alive, but these fantasies are just castles in the clouds after all. ]

[Now, the Qin Dynasty is doomed, but the Qin Dynasty has its dignity. Just as an emperor must die standing up to maintain his dignity, the Qin Dynasty is also like this.]

[My daughter and General Zhang have gathered the last soldiers of the Qin Army and are going to have a final battle with the enemy outside the city of Xianyang!]

[Daqin was facing internal and external troubles, and the enemy was in high spirits. This was destined to be a war that could not be won. General Zhang had repeatedly advised his daughter to leave, but she always refused.]

[Dad, do you know why your daughter refused? You definitely don't know. After all, you, an old man, abandoned us a long time ago. How can you understand my thoughts when I grow up? ]

[Now, the reason why my daughter does not leave is not only to fight for the Qin family and Uncle Ying Zheng, but also because she cannot accept the loneliness of Xianyang City.]

[How beautiful was Xianyang City in the past? It was picturesque, with a place for the elderly to rely on, and the country was peaceful and the people were safe. But now when my daughter opened her eyes and looked at Xianyang City, she only saw... devastation. ]

[The mountains and rivers are broken, and Xianyang City is in chaos. The dream that my daughter once had in her eyes is shattered. It will be destroyed by Xiang Yu and his group. My daughter cannot accept the future of the Qin Dynasty, nor can she accept the future of Xianyang.]

[Watching it decay step by step is like the dream in my heart being shattered step by step. I am a coward and cannot bear the future of Xianyang City. I will let it, which was once the most beautiful, sleep forever in my memory. I will accompany it and die together!]

[So, my daughter is determined to participate in this... battle to her death! The defense of Xianyang City is destined to be a one-way war, but... my daughter and General Zhang and others will not be afraid because we were born in the Qin Dynasty and are loyal to the Qin Dynasty! ]

[Even if the empire is crumbling, even if there is only endless death and darkness ahead, we will fight this final battle! We...will let Xiang Yu and his group of princes know, truly know, and use this final battle to make them remember it in their hearts, and even make it a fear for the rest of their lives. The Qin Dynasty lost, but the character of the Qin Dynasty did not lose! ! ]

[You go to sleep~ Go to sleep… My daughter came here just to tell you that there are no cowards in our Qin family. I am also like this as a daughter! My Qin family will live up to the trust of the First Emperor! ]

……

So far,

The bamboo slips are finished.

Meng Xing and others had complicated expressions.

Through the protagonist of the bamboo slips, they seemed to see the collapse and despair of the once-mighty Qin Dynasty.

"There is a bamboo slip nearby, let's see if there is any hope!"

Li Junxian said quickly.

He actually knew that there was no chance of a turnaround, because history had told him, and even told everyone, that the Qin Dynasty had already fallen. He said this because he wanted to divert attention.

"well!"

Meng Xing nodded.

Hurry and open the bamboo slips.

[Sir, I'm sorry. I'm General Zhang Han. I'm here to tell you that the Qin Dynasty was defeated.]

[The defense of Xianyang ended in failure. Xiang Yu had already led his troops to attack us. I had to work very hard to escape here.]

[I am a deserter, but I think it is necessary to escape like this because Her Highness Qin Yao once said that if she dies on the battlefield or dies one day, she wants to be with you. You protected her when she was a child, and she wants to... protect you after you fall asleep.]

[Now, I have brought Her Highness Qin Yao here. I lost an arm before I managed to retrieve her body from the enemy.]
