Qin Shi: I only work eight hours

Chapter 248 Han Yu and Bai Yifei cooperate?

Third, the pathological control over power and life.

When Bai Yifei was using drugs on young girls, he would verbally provoke and mentally manipulate them. For example, he would whisper to the girls, "Under the thick ice, spring is still flowing," and beautify the bloody acts as "the art of life." This perverted psychology is closely related to the environment in which he held the power of life and death for a long time.

……

the other side.

Xianyang, Ganquan Palace.

Xu Lin was at a disadvantage.

After the floodwaters reached Jinshan Temple, Zhao Ji's delicate eyebrows relaxed, and her cheeks became increasingly rosy.

"Would you be willing, sir...?"

Zhao Ji was only halfway through her teasing remark when she suddenly noticed that Xu Lin's condition was somewhat off.

Xu Lin was seen covering his forehead, looking very unwell.

"Sir, are you okay?"

Upon seeing this, Zhao Ji expressed her concern.

After saying that, she quickly got dressed, helped Xu Lin to the pillow, and poured him a bowl of cold tea.

"It's nothing serious."

"Just get some sleep."

Xu Lin answered weakly, exhausted.

Zhao Ji has endured for nearly a year, how could he possibly be a match for her tonight?
"Should I find a physician?"

Zhao Ji asked softly.

After saying that, she placed her hand on Xu Lin's forehead.

Xu Lin's forehead wasn't hot, but he looked very tired, as if he hadn't slept for many days!
"Need not."

Xu Lin waved his hand.

Then he had Zhao Ji lie down next to him.

Then he used Zhao Ji's lower abdomen as a pillow and began to sleep.

……

The next day.

Xu Lin slept until noon.

"You finally woke up."

"If you don't wake up soon, I will have to call the physician."

Zhao Ji gently stroked Xu Lin's hair.

At this moment, she resembled Xu Lin's biological mother, appearing more virtuous than usual.

"After the physician arrives, how will the Empress Dowager explain our relationship to him?"

Xu Lin asked with a smile.

Then he stretched comfortably and sat up, leaning on the phoenix couch.

Zhao Ji felt very comfortable resting her head on her lower abdomen. If this weren't Ganquan Palace, she could have slept until night!
"I am the Queen Mother."

"If Empress Dowager Xuan can have male favorites, why can't I?"

Zhao Ji held her waist with both hands and straightened her chest.

Xu Lin smiled upon hearing this and did not argue with Zhao Ji about it.

Having just returned to Xianyang a day ago, he still has many things to do and should not stay at Ganquan Palace for long!
"Wait a moment."

Seeing that Xu Lin was about to leave, Zhao Ji called out to him.

"Does the Empress Dowager want more?"

Xu Lin frowned.

Too much of a good thing can be bad; his legs are still a little weak!

"What do you take me for?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Ji was so angry that her chest trembled.

Her endless demands last night were because she hadn't seen Xu Lin for over a year!
Although she wasn't as patient as Li Ji, it wouldn't be difficult for her to endure for a few months!

"just kidding."

Xu Lindao.

Zhao Ji rolled her eyes at Xu Lin, then took out a sword from under the table and handed it to him.

"This is?"

Xu Lin looked in the direction of the sound, his brows furrowing slightly.

Then he fixed his gaze on the sword in Zhao Ji's hand.

The sword in Zhao Ji's hand was entirely black, and what one felt was not its sharpness, but rather its generosity and kindness.

Just like the deep, all-seeing eyes of Heaven!

"This sword seems to be called Zhanlu."

"It was given to me by someone a few years ago."

"You like using swords, right? Here, take it!"

Zhao Ji said.

Although he had no interest in swordsmanship, he had heard of Zhanlu.

The Zhanlu sword was made by Ou Yezi, the most famous swordsmith during the Spring and Autumn Period. Legend has it that after the Zhanlu sword was forged, it was obtained by the King of Yue and later passed to King Goujian of Yue. After Goujian was defeated, he had no choice but to offer the Zhanlu sword to King Fuchai of Wu. However, King Fuchai of Wu was tyrannical, and the Zhanlu sword left on its own and flew to the side of the famous King of Chu. From then on, the Zhanlu sword became a symbol of justice and benevolence. Therefore, the Zhanlu sword is a sword of benevolence.

Xu Lin has the world in his heart, so this sword is very suitable for him!

"Thank you, Empress Dowager." Xu Lin was startled upon hearing this, and then said.

After speaking, he took Zhanlu and placed it at his waist.

"You don't need to be so polite with me."

"Go back and rest quickly."

"Don't try to be a hero in the future!"

Zhao Ji said.

She was behaving dignifiedly and virtuously, just like Aunt Xu Lin!

Xu Lin nodded and left Ganquan Palace.

……

Handan, the capital of Zhao.

Han Mansion.

Han Yu learned that Bai Yifei had been promoted to Right General of Qin, but without any real power.

After a moment of contemplation, he wrote a letter to Bai Yifei.

Bai Yifei is just like him, both are ambitious people. Would Bai Yifei be willing to do this?
The states of Zhao and Wei still exist, and he is still alive. There is still a possibility that the state of Han can be restored!

If Bai Yifei is willing to help, he is willing to jointly rule South Korea with Bai Yifei when the country is restored in the future!

……

Three days later.

The Bai Mansion, on the outskirts of Xianyang.

Bai Yifei received Han Yu's letter.

Upon reading the contents of the letter, Bai Yifei sneered.

Then he wrote back to Han Yu, saying that he was willing to cooperate with Zhao Chu and other countries.

Han Yu wants to share control of South Korea with him?
Why should I, the Marquis, share control of Yingchuan Commandery with you?

After the messenger had gone far away, Bai Yifei summoned the steward.

The girls near Xianyang are very radiant, much better quality than those in Xinzheng, which Bai Yifei likes very much.

There was only one young girl left in the manor, and Bai Yifei liked to hoard her, so he kept her in the cellar.

"promise!"

Butler Bai Li immediately accepted the order.

Then he rode away from the Bai residence.

The Qin state was the capital of Xianyang, and the quality of the young girls there was extremely high. Therefore, Bai Yifei saw the possibility of stepping into the peak of the Grandmaster realm, or even the Great Grandmaster realm!

But as early as two days ago, Yan Lingji had already set her sights on Bai Yifei.

The news of the disappearances of young girls in the suburbs of Xianyang quickly reached the Imperial Preceptor's residence.

Upon learning of this, Yan Lingji immediately thought of Bai Yifei, because back in Xinzheng, Bai Yifei often 'absorbed' young girls.

Therefore, Yan Lingji has been secretly monitoring the Bai residence for the past two days.

After Bai Li left the mansion, Yan Lingji followed him to a village that was far from the official road.

Bai Li knew that Qin Fa was strict, so he was not as arrogant and blatant as he was in South Korea. He chose to steal the girl at night while she was asleep!
……

A quarter of an hour later.

Bai Li arrived at a village so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

After entering the village, he took out a piece of straw paper from his pocket.

He drew the location of the two girls he was looking for on the scrap paper.

These two girls are named Ling'er and Yue'er.

The older one is fifteen years old, and the younger one is thirteen.

Before long, Bai Li arrived at the two girls' home.

Instead of knocking, he chose to climb over the wall and enter.

These two girls lost their parents at a young age, so there's no need to worry about their parents reporting them to the authorities!

Bai Li, with his keen hearing, quickly located the bedroom.

After confirming that 'Ling'er' and 'Yue'er' were both in the bedroom, he took out a packet of poison from his pocket.

Then gently push open the doors and windows and ignite the poison.

Just as he was about to place the burning poison in the bedroom, Yan Lingji attacked Bai Li.

"kindness?"

"Who are you?"

Bai Li dodged Yan Lingji's attack and asked, quite puzzled.

"Who my sister is doesn't matter."

"Judging by your skillful technique, this isn't the first time you've done something like this, is it?"

Yan Lingji's voice was cold and clear.

After speaking, she removed the Fire Spirit Hairpin.

"So what?"

Bai Li noticed that Yan Lingji had fair skin and a tall figure, and immediately became interested.

As soon as he finished speaking, he drew the long sword from his waist.
