Meng Tian clasped his fists together and said apologetically, "It's a last resort! Meng Tian has no choice but to use this strategy. Without the cooperation of adults, I'm afraid this trip will be even more difficult than it is now."
……
In the void, Li Tiansheng stared at the distant figures of Meng Tian and the envoy, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
"They are all people in the play! Interesting!"
Chapter No.17 Seeing Ying Zheng for the First Time
Xianyang Palace.
Ying Zheng, who was sitting in the main hall, heard the servant's report.
Suppressing the excitement in his heart, he kept a straight face so that no one could see his happiness or anger.
He ordered people to call Meng Tian and the eunuch who was on a mission into the palace.
"Chen Mengtian, I have seen Your Majesty!"
"The servant has seen His Majesty!"
……
"Get up!" Ying Zheng's voice was calm and powerful, without any fluctuations, making it impossible to see happiness or anger.
"promise!"
"How are things going?"
"Report to Your Majesty, this trip to Xianxiang..."
Down below, Meng Tian told the whole story, including his conspiracy with the envoy, everything was in detail, and he didn't dare to hide anything.
The envoy followed closely, talking about what he had seen and heard in Xianxiang, piled up a bunch of good words, his eyes were full of envy, and he was full of praise.
But from the beginning to the end, the attitude towards the first emperor was always respectful, with his body half bowed and his movements meticulous.
Without Shi Huang's permission, he would not move a single bit.
This is the difference between internal servants and foreign ministers. The latter regards the emperor as the main one, while the former regards the emperor as the sky. They have more contact with the first emperor and know the ruler of the Great Qin better, and they can't tolerate sand in their eyes.
"Get up!"
Ying Zheng's voice sounded faintly, "Present the things."
"promise!"
The personal servant took the gourd, knelt down on the ground with his head bowed, spread his hands, and handed the things up.
"Is there something gifted by the immortal here?"
Ying Zheng glanced at it, and the gourd was green all over, like flawless precious jasper, very extraordinary.
Just for this gourd, he was looking forward to what's inside.
"Exactly! What's in it is the fairy dew given by the immortal. It is rumored that it can strengthen the body and prolong life." Meng Tian replied respectfully.
Ying Zheng nodded, holding back his excited hands, and cast his eyes on the eunuch envoy of His Highness, "Come forward and have a drink."
"promise!"
The envoy suppressed the excitement in his heart, he knew that Shi Huang was worried, fearing that the person offering the gift would have bad intentions, according to the rules, someone needs to replace the food first.
But he has seen the wonders of the fairyland with his own eyes, and he has long longed for the gourd dew. Now that he can drink a cup, even if he dies immediately, it is worth it.
Besides, from the bottom of his heart, he didn't want to believe that he would die.
After all, it is a fairy thing.
For him, this is an opportunity.
The mouth of the gourd was gently opened, and the clear water flowed into the bronze cup, and when it covered the bottom of the cup, it would stop.
Fairy dew is precious, and it only needs to serve as a food substitute.
At the same time, a gust of coolness filled the entire hall, making one feel refreshed.
The messenger's fingers trembled, he forcibly suppressed the excitement in his heart, and without any hesitation, he drank it all in one gulp.
He couldn't help but let out a groan, and the emissary's face was satisfied, and his complexion, which was slightly weathered because of rushing back to Xianyang, suddenly turned rosy.
Full of air.
Even the slightly gray hair showed signs of turning black.
"This! It really is something in the sky, extraordinary."
Everyone stared at the envoy dumbfounded, they all felt the high-spirited spirit, and Meng Tian burst into admiration.
He looked at Hulu with a trace of eagerness, which was fleeting and was well covered by him.
This kind of thing is not something that a subject like him can have. I always keep in mind the word "duty".
This is the reason why the Meng family has not declined for three generations, but is even more valued by the emperor.
Without ordering, the personal servant immediately poured Ying Zheng a glass.
Handed it up respectfully.
Reach out and drink it all in one gulp.
Ying Zheng let out a comfortable sound from his throat.
He felt that his whole body was surrounded by a stream of clear spring water, flowing through his body, taking away layers of dirt.
Like being baptized by heaven and earth.
Most of the old dark wounds and old diseases have healed.
It was as if he had returned to the time when he was crowned in Yongcheng. In his weak years, he was physically strong and energetic, and he seemed to be able to toss forever.
Realize your own king map hegemony!
"Okay!" Ying Zheng clapped his hands and applauded, losing his bearing for the first time in the hall.
"You disgusted the people in the fairyland?" Ying Zheng asked suddenly, looking down.
"Yes!"
