Chapter 495

Li Si was excited instantly!

At this time, Li Si was not yet the prime minister of the later Qin Empire. He was just a retainer under the command of Qin Prime Minister Lu Buwei.

This mission to Korea was a task that Li Si had finally obtained from Lu Buwei. He originally thought that he could only bring back some supplies to report, but who would have thought that he would encounter such great news.

The Qin State had always wanted to occupy Jinshui City, but because Wei Wuji led the coalition forces of five countries to defeat Qin two years ago, Qin was seriously injured. In addition, the Queen Mother Zhao Ji and her lover Lao Ai were trying to fight with Prime Minister Lu Buwei, which made it impossible for Qin State to deal with Han State in a short period of time. Therefore, it could only send envoys to warn it to let it know who is the boss.

But!
Now his opponent was not the old King of Han, but the King of Tang who had usurped the throne. This gave Li Si hope.

Although the King of Han was old and incompetent, he had been the king for decades and enjoyed great popularity in the country of Han, so being able to get some treasures and food from the King of Han was considered a meritorious service.

But now that he had such an ignorant King of Tang in front of him, Li Si immediately became bolder.

The other party is a king who usurped the throne. Even though he seems to have been throwing money around to win people's hearts in recent days, the former nobles will not be bought by such small favors.

Looking at the few small cats in the court, Li Si felt that if he could send a large army to attack the Tang Dynasty now, he would probably be able to defeat it in one battle.

However, the image of Qin State is not very good in the eyes of people all over the world. If it directly sends troops to destroy Tang State, all countries will probably be afraid. So in Li Si's view, if he can capture the key city of Jinshui City without bloodshed, then his mission this time will be a great achievement!

Thinking that he could capture the famous city for Qin without losing a single soldier, Li Si was almost sublime.

He wants to be an official, a high-ranking official, a high-ranking official respected by everyone in the world!
He has only been in Qin for several years and is now just a retainer under Lu Buwei. He will not miss this opportunity at all and must make everyone look at him with new eyes.

The Tang State certainly does not dare to offend the Qin State now, so it only needs to act tough and the other party will have to offer Jinshui City to the Qin State, so that it will have the capital for promotion!

Li Si felt that he was well-read and had a comprehensive understanding of ancient and modern times. He had already learned 70% of Xunzi's essence. What he lacked now was just an opportunity.

"Come here, throw him into the death row! Execute him on a certain day!"

But Li Si never expected that he just opened his mouth to ask for price and negotiate, but the other party was so unethical and directly ordered people to arrest him!
What do you mean?
"What does the King of Tang mean?" Li Si was completely confused. Is this guy reasonable or not?
Besides, I am an envoy of Qin State. How dare you, a mere king of the weakest country who is plotting to usurp the throne, chop me down? What are you thinking?

"Nothing, just chopping someone down for fun. Who told you to act so arrogant in front of me? I don't like it!"

Li Qingyuan pinched Yan Lingji beside him, then answered with a smile.

"I am the envoy of Qin! The King of Tang did this in the hope that you can still smile when our Qin cavalry arrives in Xinzheng in the future!"

Li Si couldn't help cursing in his heart, what does it mean to chop someone down for fun?
Even though he was already trembling in his heart, he still spoke up.

He cannot admit defeat. He now represents the face of the Qin State. If he admits defeat, he will never be able to get back on his feet again.

As for whether the other party would really chop him?
How can it be!

He was an envoy of the Qin State. If the other party destroyed the Kingdom of Han and established itself as the king, the Qin State might not care. But if the other party killed him, then the Qin State would definitely destroy the Tang State for both profit and face.

So Li Si felt that he was basically invincible, and it was ridiculous for the other party to try to confuse him with this little trick.

"It's nothing. I was just joking in this country. If the Qin cavalry attacks me, I will just run away. With my skills, no one in the world can catch me!" Li Qingyuan said nonchalantly.

what?
Li was so frightened that he almost cried out.

How can there be a king like you in the world?
Regarding Li Qingyuan's statement that he could capture all the beauties in the world, Li Si said that this should be true, because as far as he knew, the other party relied on force to kill Ji Wuye, the former general of Han State, and forced the King of Han to death.

Ji Wuye was a man who had led an army to fight against the Qin and Chu armies in the past. Although he was the abused one in most cases, the fact that he was qualified to take the stage proved that he was quite capable.

Such a guy was actually killed in his own lair. In Li Si's opinion, Li Qingyuan's strength is at least close to that of Xunzi, a peerless master!

If such a master is shameless and only wants to escape, no one can catch him!
especially--

"Your Majesty! No!"

"Your Majesty, you are our king! How can you abandon your country and run away?"

The ministers of the Tang State, who had been acting as background boards, suddenly became anxious. Although everyone had little loyalty to the new King of Tang, at least they had someone to rely on to support them.

But now the other party actually said that he wanted to quit the job, which made everyone very anxious.

Especially Bai Yifei, he was almost scared to death.

After all, if the other party really quits, wouldn’t all my efforts be in vain?

My goodness! Li Si was stunned when he saw the chaotic court.

Accustomed to the domineering and solemn atmosphere of the Qin court, he suddenly saw the noisy scene of the Tang court, which was like a vegetable market. He felt both noisy and cold all over.

Is this guy serious?

"What are you still standing there for? Drag this guy out and chop him up!"

Seeing that Li Si was still unmoved, Li Qingyuan shouted directly.

…………

Son of a bitch!
Li Si kept cursing in his heart and wanted to escape but it was too late.

There was no way. He and Han Fei both only learned Xunzi's teachings but not each other's martial arts. Or it could be said that they both practiced Confucian justice. At the beginning, they looked powerless and no different from ordinary people. But as long as they become masters in the later stage, their entire life dimension will be elevated to another level, thereby directly gaining power beyond imagination.

If I had known earlier, I would have learned some essentials of being good at attacking!

Although Li Si was so frightened that his heart was trembling, he still retained the last bit of dignity. It was obvious that for him now, he could not lose face even if he died.

(I’ll post a picture of Yan Lingji, I hope it can pass the review!)
