Qin Shi: I only work eight hours

Chapter 269 Wei Liao Enters Qin
"No."

Xu Lin shook his head.

With two lifetimes and a system, how could he possibly fail to break through?

Yingge felt a little embarrassed upon hearing this, as she had assumed that Xu Lin also frequently failed to break through to higher levels!
"I can lend you a hand."

Xu Lin continued.

Without waiting for Yingge's reply, he sat down on the soft couch and began to give instructions.

Parrot had no choice but to agree.

……

After a cup of tea.

Under Xu Lin's guidance, Yingge successfully made a breakthrough.

Several years ago, she was already at the mid-stage of the innate realm.

"Thank you, sir."

After sensing the change in the true energy within his dantian, Yingge bowed and expressed his gratitude.

Then he wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve.

"Just a verbal thank you?"

Xu Lin teased.

"what?"

Yingge frowned, her heart skipped a beat.

"just kidding."

Seeing the nervous look in Yingge's eyes, Xu Lin said loudly.

Then he picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea.

Do you know how to perform a massage?

After more than ten breaths, Xu Lin asked.

"know a bit."

The parrot answered.

Although she is a woman, she has always carried out hunting missions and did not need to use her 'honey trap'!
Would you be willing to give me a massage?

Xu Lin asked.

Yingge nodded slightly, then bit her lower lip and walked towards Xu Lin.

Because she had sweated a lot, she took off her outer gauze.

After taking it off, she put on an even thicker coat.

She was afraid Xu Lin wouldn't be able to resist if she didn't wear a coat!

"Summer is coming next month, aren't you hot wearing such thick clothes?"

Seeing this, Xu Lin asked with a half-smile.

He had no intention of climbing the mountain today, but looking at the mountain was also a very interesting thing!

"I am not afraid of the heat."

The parrot shook its head.

Then she rolled up her sleeves and tied her hair up.

Seeing this, Xu Lin stopped trying to persuade him, turned over, and lay face down on the soft couch.

Although Yingge has never served anyone, he has never eaten pork, but surely he has seen pigs run?

Because Yingge's breasts were so impressive, she inevitably bumped into Xu Lin while massaging him.

Is it really that soft?

Upon sensing this, Xu Lin smiled calmly and thought to himself.

……

Less than half an hour later.

Just as Xu Lin was about to teach Ying Ge a few tricks, Li Wu's voice suddenly came from outside the door.

"gentlemen."

"Someone wants to see you."

Li Wu said respectfully.

"who?"

"Is it male or female?"

Xu Lin frowned.

Upon hearing this, Yingge immediately released Xu Lin's shoulder, pressed her jade legs tightly together, and sat up straight.

"It's a man."

He said his name was Liao and he came from the State of Wei.

"Around thirty years old."

Li Wu answered.

Upon hearing this, Xu Lin's brows furrowed slightly, and he then instructed Li Wu to take 'Liao' to the study.

I'll teach you another day.

Xu Lin patted Yingge's shoulders a few times.

Then I got dressed and left.

The parrot nodded slightly.

The accidental 'collision' just now caused her to gradually harden from soft to hard.

Soon, Xu Lin met 'Liao'.

"I've met the Imperial Master."

He bowed deeply in salutation.

Although he was simply dressed, he didn't look sloppy. He had a square face and gave people a reliable feeling.

Xu Lin waved his hand and then gestured for Liao to sit down and talk.

After chatting for a while, Xu Lin confirmed that the other party was indeed the historical figure 'Wei Liao'.

The name 'Wei Liao' is not very well-known, but the book 'Wei Liao Zi' is very famous. It is an important military treatise in ancient China and an important part of China's classical military cultural heritage.

"Many people say that the Grand Preceptor is approachable, but I have always been skeptical of this."

"After all, the Grand Preceptor holds a very high position among the officials."

"That's why I've come to give it a try today."

"I didn't expect the Grand Preceptor to actually allow me into the mansion."

Liao opened his mouth and said.

"My willingness to meet you today has little to do with my approachable personality. It's mainly because I've heard about your military treatise."

Xu Lin explained.

Then he personally poured Liao a bowl of tea.

The two chatted happily, feeling like old friends, and talked until the wee hours of the morning.

According to Liao, there are two different types of wars: unjust wars that oppose killing and plundering, and just wars that support 'punishing riots and prohibiting injustice'.

He clearly pointed out that "in general, a soldier should not attack a city without fault, nor kill an innocent person. To kill someone's father or brother, to profit from someone's wealth, or to take someone's children as a concubine, is to be a thief."

Xu Lin strongly agreed with this.

"I wonder if you, sir, would be willing to serve Qin?"

Seeing that it was getting late, Xu Lin asked seriously.

"This is a matter of great importance; please allow me to consider it."

The winding path.

"can."

Xu Lin nodded.

Then he personally escorted Liao out of the mansion.

After Liao disappeared from sight, Xu Lin returned to his study.

He had just sat down cross-legged when Yan Lingji, like a cat, rushed to his side and hugged him from behind.

"Master, I'm hungry."

Yan Lingji hooked her fair wrist around Xu Lin's neck.

How hungry are you?

Xu Lin asked with a smile.

"Very hungry!"

Yan Lingji replied without hesitation.

Before Xu Lin could reply, she casually lay down on his lap.

Xu Lin did not stop Yan Lingji, but instead wrote a letter to Ying Zheng.

Liao is a brilliant strategist; if he could be put to use by the Qin Dynasty, the results would be twice as good with half the effort!
……

A quarter of an hour later.

Zhangtai Palace.

Ying Zheng had just finished reviewing today's memorials.

He has been reviewing memorials until late at night almost every day lately.

"Kings."

"The Imperial Advisor has written you a letter."

Upon seeing this, Zhao Gao stepped forward a few paces and said respectfully.

"Just delivered?"

Ying Zheng frowned.

Xu Lin rarely wrote to him at this time.

Moreover, Xu Lin usually comes directly to Zhangtai Palace whenever there is any business.

"Correct."

Zhao Gao nodded.

Upon hearing this, Ying Zheng dismissed his attendants and then entrusted the task of reading the letter to Zhao Gao.

"promise!"

Zhao Gao immediately accepted the order.

Then I looked closely at the contents of the letter.

"Kings."

"The Imperial Advisor said in his letter that you should pay attention to a person named Liao."

"He is from Wei, around thirty years old, and is currently in Xianyang. He is a brilliant strategist, well-versed in military tactics. In terms of military strategy alone, I am no match for him!"

Zhao Gao said as he looked at it.

"wind?"

Do you know this person?

Ying Zheng asked.

This was the first time he had ever heard of 'Liao'.

Zhao Gao shook his head.

"Go check it out."

"After finding him, invite him to Zhangtai Palace."

Ying Zheng gave the orders while washing up.

Although he was the king, like Xu Lin, he did not particularly enjoy being served.

Therefore, there were very few maids in Zhangtai Palace.

"promise!"

Zhao Gao nodded.

Then they left.

……

Five days later.

Zhao Gao met Liao in the western suburbs of Xianyang.

After chatting for a while, he pointed to the Qin Palace and said that the king wanted to see him.

"Could we reschedule for another day?"

Liao asked.

In this era, rulers choose their ministers, and ministers also choose their rulers. He wanted to know if the Qin state was like this!
"can."

Zhao Gao readily agreed.

Ying Zheng said "invite" Liao to Zhangtai Palace, not "take" Liao to Zhangtai Palace, so he could not force her to do something against her will!
He had just glanced at Liao's military treatise and found its insights to be truly unique.

After saying this, Zhao Gao left.

After returning to Zhangtai Palace, he told Ying Zheng about it.

After hearing this, Ying Zheng changed into civilian clothes and went to Liao's residence by carriage.

Which of the people recommended by Xu Lin were ordinary individuals?

Li Si, Han Fei, Zhang Liang—weren't they all exceptional talents capable of assisting a king?
