Chapter 1868

~6 min read 1,010 words

To inquire about the immortal pill and see if they had a chance.

They didn't dare to inquire from His Majesty, they could only do so through other channels.

His Majesty becoming young made them envious.

However, it didn't go as far as jealousy; who would dare to be jealous of His Majesty?

Even if they were jealous, they wouldn't dare to say it out loud.

Many people weren't jealous, just envious.

If His Majesty could be immortal, then Great Qin would be even more prosperous.

Great Qin lasting ten thousand years was not impossible.

With His Majesty there, Great Qin would be stable.

If Great Qin was stable and prosperous, there would be no war, and no one would die.

They would live even more comfortably.

As long as His Majesty always worked for the country and the people and never changed.

Then they could live peacefully for a long time.

Great Qin could also be stable for a very, very long time.

For those who didn't have thoughts of rebellion, this was a good thing.

But for those who had crooked thoughts, it was a nightmare.

"Ministers, no need for courtesy; you may all rise!"

Ying Zheng looked at the performance of everyone in the hall and was very satisfied.

This was the result he wanted—deterrence.

As long as he was there, Great Qin could be passed down for thousands of generations!

As long as he was there, no one would dare to have bad intentions.

The civil and military ministers stood up one after another.

Everyone looked at Ying Zheng fervently.

The young appearance was truly handsome!

Being young was truly good, full of vitality!

The hall gradually quieted down.

Feng Quji saw that everyone wasn't speaking.

He stood out directly.

"Your Majesty, yesterday we saw Xu Fu in the First City!"

"He was captured and paraded through the streets; that appearance was truly too miserable."

"This old minister has a question, but I don't know if I should ask it?"

Feng Quji rolled his eyes a few times.

He wanted to use this as an entry point to probe for some information.

The information he knew was that Xu Fu had gone to search for the immortal pill on His Majesty's behalf.

Now that he saw Xu Fu, and also saw His Majesty become young.

Shouldn't Xu Fu be rewarded at this time?

Why was Xu Fu captured and paraded through the streets?

Could it be that His Majesty's immortality wasn't because Xu Fu found the immortal pill?

Now it seemed that didn't seem to be the case.

Never mind Feng Quji's confusion; everyone present was confused.

They had known before that His Majesty had given Xu Fu three thousand boys and girls to go to sea to search for the immortal pill.

They all thought it was Xu Fu who had brought back the longevity pill.

But now seeing Xu Fu paraded through the streets made them dispel this thought.

If it really was the immortal pill that Xu Fu had found, how could he be captured by His Majesty and paraded through the streets?

"Ask, what is it?"

Ying Zheng looked at Feng Quji with a smile.

With a smile on his face, he wasn't angry at all because he heard Xu Fu's name.

Now he could live for several hundred more years.

He no longer had any hatred for Xu Fu.

Xu Fu would only live worse and worse.

And he would only live better and better.

It wasn't worth being angry for the sake of a dying person.

He had indeed been very angry before.

But later he thought it through; being angry would only affect his mood.

Being angry would only make him feel irritable.

For him, living for several hundred years was the greatest happiness.

Enough to dilute all unhappiness.

"Your Majesty, wasn't your immortal pill brought back by Xu Fu?"

"Why was Xu Fu captured and paraded through the streets?"

"Yesterday I saw him almost smashed to death by the citizens with stones."

"What exactly is going on?"

Feng Quji's words resonated with others.

Everyone present had this question.

After all, Xu Fu had taken countless treasures and three thousand boys and girls to sea to search for the immortal pill.

Now Xu Fu had returned and brought back the immortal pill.

But why was Xu Fu captured and paraded before the public?

What exactly was going on?

Everyone was incredibly curious.

They were all very concerned about the immortal pill.

It was Prime Minister Feng Quji who asked this question.

Otherwise, they would have wanted to ask this question later.

"Who told you that it was the immortal pill brought back by Xu Fu?"

Ying Zheng was disdainful; could that old thing Xu Fu bring him back an immortal pill?

If Xu Fu had really found the immortal pill, he would have definitely eaten it long ago.

How could he have brought it back for him?

One had to know that Xu Fu had long ago made plans to run away.

If he hadn't gone to search for him, he would never have found Xu Fu in this lifetime.

Fortunately, he had found him this time.

"It wasn't the immortal pill brought back by Xu Fu?"

The ministers were dumbfounded; it really was like that.

If it really was the immortal pill brought back by Xu Fu, how could he be captured and paraded before the public?

Something must have happened that they didn't know about.

They were all very curious about this matter.

They urgently wanted to know where this immortal pill was found.

If conditions allowed, they would also want to go and find it.

Try their luck and see if they could also find an immortal pill.

How could Ying Zheng not understand the ministers' thoughts?

Ying Zi Ye had said that the longevity pill was unique.

Even if they wanted to find it, they couldn't; this species was already extinct in this world.

There were only three in this world; he had eaten one.
