Qin Shi: I only work eight hours

Chapter 190 Yan Lingji flips the Heavenly Gang, making Xu Lin lean against the window.

the other side.

Xu Mansion, on the outskirts of Xinzheng City.

Yan Lingji was complaining to Xu Lin about Tianze and Baiduwang killing Baiyue refugees.

"What crime have those refugees committed?"

"Why are Tianze and the Hundred Poison King so determined to kill them?"

Yan Lingji's beautiful eyes were full of confusion.

Influenced by Xu Lin, she gradually became a person who believed in "helping others when one is successful".

In Yan Lingji's view, those Baiyue refugees were innocent.

If Tianze wants revenge, he should go after Ji Wuye, Bai Yifei, and the King of Han, not those refugees!

"Perhaps in their view, living under someone else's roof means you deserve to die."

Xu Lin answered casually.

In the original novel, Tianze seemed to say something like that when he killed those Baiyue refugees.

"???"

"That Tianze was imprisoned for several years, shouldn't he also die?"

Yan Lingji said irritably.

She hates people who have double standards.

"If the standard is uniform, he really deserves to die."

"But some people like to be lenient with themselves and strict with others."

Xu Lin smiled.

He didn't like Tianze either.

After he finished speaking, he winked at Yan Lingji, signaling her to sit on his lap and calm down.

"Heaven is watching what people do; it won't be long before they get their comeuppance."

Seeing Yan Lingji's chest heaving with anger, Xu Lin comforted her.

Then he had Yan Lingji sit on his right leg.

"benefactor."

Will evil people always be punished?

Yan Lingji leaned against Xu Lin's chest and asked.

She doesn't really believe in karma or retribution.

If it weren't for Xu Lin, Emerald Tiger would have died sometime in the future!

Villains like Ji Wuye and Bai Yifei are still alive and well, aren't they?
"Not necessarily, but it's highly likely."

Xu Lin answered while thinking.

After saying that, he placed his hand on Yan Lingji's knee.

Just as he was about to take it a step further, there was a sudden, urgent knocking on the door.

Upon hearing this, Yan Lingji immediately released Xu Lin's neck and stood up.

Then, while adjusting her skirt, she walked towards the door.

"Who?"

Yan Lingji asked in a cold voice.

"I am Nongyu."

Nongyu, with her long hair reaching her waist, answered softly.

"It's you, Yu'er."

"The door isn't bolted, so please come in."

Yan Lingji said.

Nongyu is gentle and kind, and she likes Nongyu quite a bit.

Squeak!

The wooden door opened in response.

Nongyu pushed open the door and went straight to the study.

She didn't wear a night-clothes outfit because it was too tight and showed off her figure too much!

She was afraid that Yan Lingji would misunderstand and think that she dressed like this on purpose to seduce Xu Lin.

"Has your sister Zi Nu returned?"

Xu Lin raised his hand to indicate to Nongyu that there was no need for formalities, and asked curiously.

"not yet."

"But it should be soon."

Nongyu's breath was as fragrant as orchids.

"Has anything been happening at Zilan Pavilion lately?"

Seeing that Nongyu didn't seem to be asking for help, Xu Lin shook the teacup in his hand and pressed her for an answer.

"No."

"After Liu Yi died, few people caused trouble at Zilan Pavilion."

Nongyu shook her head.

"That's good."

Xu Lin nodded, gesturing for Nongyu to sit down and talk. It was still early; there was no rush to teach Nongyu swordsmanship.

Nongyu, dressed in a long black robe, nodded slightly and knelt down opposite Xu Lin.

"However, there is something I wonder if you have heard of, sir."

Nongyu blinked her starry eyes and asked.

"What's the matter?"

Xu Lin took a sip of tea.

"Ninth Prince Han Fei has been dismissed from his post."

"After being dismissed from his post, he often came to Zilanxuan to drink, and he would drink until the middle of the night every time."

Nongyu replied.

Upon hearing this, Xu Lin's brows furrowed slightly as he looked towards the Hundred Fragrances Palace.

The dismissal of Han Fei was clearly orchestrated by Consort Hu.

The fragrance by my pillow truly lives up to its reputation!
No wonder Zuo Sima Liu Yi didn't dare to force Lady Hu to do anything she didn't want.

"Drowning one's sorrows in alcohol is perfectly normal."

"If I were him, I would be very upset too!"

After a moment's thought, Xu Lin commented.

After Han Fei raided Fei Cuihu's house, he discovered that Fei Cuihu's abduction of women was related to King Han An, and he was subsequently dismissed from his post. Who wouldn't be upset in that situation?

Han Fei wanted to save the state of Han, but King An of Han was a tyrannical ruler. How could he save him?
To force King Han An to abdicate?
But the problem is, Han Fei is not the crown prince!
Thinking of this, Xu Lin smiled calmly. He had told Han Fei long ago that the state of Han was beyond saving, but Han Fei just wouldn't listen. Now he believed it, didn't he?

Nongyu nodded and changed the subject to another matter.

"Sir, you are a high-ranking official of Qin, you must already know about the assassination of the Qin envoy, right?"

Will Qin send troops to destroy Han because of this?

Nongyu sat up straight and asked seriously.

"If Yu'er hadn't told you, I really wouldn't have known."

"But what can be confirmed is that Qin will not send troops to destroy Han because of this."

"Because the canal under the supervision of Zheng Guo, the hydraulic engineer, has not yet been completed, it is not advisable to launch a war of annihilation now!"

Xu Lin was taken aback upon hearing this, and then replied.

"The Qin army was already exhausted, and then the Qin envoy was assassinated."

"If South Korea wants to appease Qin's anger this time, it will probably have to cede Nanyang!"

Xu Lin took out a map and added details as he looked at it.

Nanyang was the second largest city in the State of Han after Xinzheng. If Nanyang were ceded to the State of Qin, the State of Han would exist in name only. But the State of Han had other options.

With this thought in mind, Xu Lin smiled and began to teach Nongyu the sword technique.

"Yu'er."

"Go practice in the courtyard."

"You no longer need your benefactor to teach you step by step."

Seeing Xu Lin and Nongyu acting intimately, Yan Lingji spoke up.

She didn't mind Xu Lin taking Nongyu as a concubine, but she couldn't bear to see Xu Lin and Nongyu being intimate for the time being!

"it is good."

Upon hearing this, Nongyu blushed and quickly walked towards the courtyard.

Yan Lingji smiled sweetly and made Xu Lin lean against the window.

The window is very high, so Yan Ling Ji can hide under it.

What do you want to do?

Seeing Yan Lingji's mischievous grin, Xu Lin lowered his voice and asked.

"Guess who my benefactor is."

Yan Lingji half-squatted down and suggested with a smile.

Before Xu Lin could reply, she placed her hand on his leg.

Upon seeing this, Xu Lin frowned deeply, then forced a smile and told Nongyu in the courtyard to continue practicing her swordsmanship.

……

That night.

Xinzheng, the General's Mansion.

Mo Ya strode towards the study.

"General."

"It can be basically confirmed that the person who killed the Qin envoy was a subordinate of Tianze, the deposed crown prince of Baiyue."

Mo Ya said seriously.

"People from Tianze?"

Ji Wuye, with his thick, halberd-like eyebrows, was startled upon hearing this.

He asked Bai Yifei to release Tianze in order to deal with Han Fei and Liu Sha. What did Tianze mean by sending someone to kill the Qin envoy?
The assassination of the Qin envoy in Han was no small matter; if not handled carefully, Han would be in danger of national extinction!

If South Korea were to fall, would he, as a general, survive?
What is Bai Yifei good for?
Is Tianze under control or not?
He released Tianze to eliminate the quicksand and let the Korean people know that he was the true 'king' of Korea, instead of shooting himself in the foot!
"Some people saw many venomous snakes in the Qin envoy's carriage, just like when the Baiyue refugees were killed in the suburbs."

"Tianze has a snake expert under his command, I think his name is Hundred Poisons King."

Mo Ya nodded respectfully.

Upon hearing this, Ji Wuye was furious and immediately wrote a letter to Bai Yifei, ordering him to thoroughly investigate the matter. If it was indeed Tianze's doing, then Tianze should die!
