"Seeing Father Emperor looking worried, is there something on your mind?"

"Could it be that you are not at ease with what I have done?"

Ying Ying Zi Ye saw Brother Zheng's face suddenly turn from sunny to cloudy.

It is likely that there is something on his mind, but he didn't say it.

Ying Zheng didn't say much, but his brows slowly frowned.

"Father Emperor might as well say it; perhaps I have a way to solve it."

Ying Ying Zi Ye continued: "Could it be that Father Emperor is thinking about the elixir?"

Only then did Ying Zheng look up and glance at Ying Ying Zi Ye in surprise.

"Hmm, alchemists do great harm to people; now that there is no more Golden Core, my path to longevity has suddenly become confused."

Ying Zheng sighed deeply, his eyes full of confusion.

Originally, he shouldn't have shown this emotion in front of his ministers.

But I don't know why, seeing Ying Zi Ye care about him so much, he revealed his inner thoughts.

Hearing this, cold sweat broke out on General Zhang Han's forehead unconsciously.

"Ninth Young Master, please be careful; I just praised you for being sensible, why are you courting death again?"

General Zhang Han muttered to himself; he didn't want to hear these words!

He was really afraid that the Ninth Young Master would annoy His Majesty if he wasn't careful.

At that time, maybe even he would be implicated.

"Father Emperor is sighing repeatedly because of such a small matter?"

"Alchemists refining pills are poisonous; it's a good thing it was discovered early."

"Otherwise, if Father Emperor continues to take medicine..."

Ying Ying Zi Ye stopped at the right point and didn't finish his sentence.

With Brother Zheng's great talent and bold vision, how could he not know the importance of this matter?

Perhaps he still had longing in his heart and was temporarily unwilling to accept it.

Ying Zheng heard these words, his face was ugly, and his eyes showed cold light.

A powerful and overbearing aura was born quietly, shaking General Zhang Han's body.

He shouted in his heart that something big was wrong.

General Zhang Han looked at Ying Ying Zi Ye with some resentment.

Good brat, you really touch on the sore spot!

"Small matter? Hmph!"

"Alchemists deserve to die!"

"I am sighing because I am full of confusion about longevity!"

"If this continues, I..."

Speaking of this, Ying Zheng couldn't go on.

He hated heaven, hated earth, and hated alchemists; if it weren't for the alchemists, how could his life only have thirty days left.

Such a big matter must never be known by a second person.

The more Ying Zheng thought about it, the angrier he became, and the air in the entire Imperial Study suddenly became low.

Those who know Brother Zheng know that he is on the verge of rage.

General Zhang Han roared in his heart: It's over, it's over!

Ninth Young Master, can you be more reliable? This old man is going to be killed by you!

Looking at Ying Ying Zi Ye, he didn't seem to be affected.

"Father Emperor, I have a Taiji Life-Nourishing Technique here; I wonder if Father Emperor is interested?"

Ying Ying Zi Ye decided to give this Taiji Life-Nourishing Technique to Brother Zheng.

As for how to nourish life and how to live for a few more days, it depends on whether Brother Zheng has the talent for practicing this.

He didn't know much about the efficacy of this Taiji Life-Nourishing Technique, but the introduction said it was quite good.

Practicing this life-nourishing technique can prolong life; as for how long he can live, he doesn't know either.

He was really worried that Brother Zheng would seek medical advice in a hurry and take medicine again, and then accidentally die.

"Taiji Life-Nourishing Technique?"

"What kind of thing is this?"

Ying Zheng's impending rage was extinguished by these words.

Attracted by these words, he looked at Ying Ying Zi Ye with some confusion.

"Father Emperor, this was also obtained by me in that mysterious small village."

"That mysterious small village also has a name—Longevity Village!"

"The people in that village, regardless of gender, can all live to be one hundred and twenty years old!"

"It is rumored that the village chief even lived to be nearly a thousand years old; I don't know if it's true or not."

Ying Ying Zi Ye had no choice; the origin of this Taiji Life-Nourishing Technique was unknown, and he couldn't explain it at all.

He could only throw this pot onto the non-existent small village again.

Anyway, Brother Zheng couldn't find it, and he didn't know that this was made up by him.

"You said how old?"

"One hundred and twenty years old!"

"It is rumored that there is a village chief who lived to be nearly a thousand years old."

Ying Zheng heard this and was greatly shocked!

One hundred and twenty years old!

Rumored to be nearly a thousand years old!

In Great Qin, one hundred and twenty years old can be called super longevity.

He had never heard of anyone living to be one hundred and twenty years old!

Let alone nearly a thousand years old.

Before Great Qin, the average life expectancy was thirty-five to forty years old; the main causes of death were war, burial, etc.

Due to war, famine, natural disasters, etc., many people could not live long.

It was only after Great Qin unified that there were fewer wars, and people with richer lives could live to be over fifty on average, and sixty or seventy was old age.

But now Ying Ying Zi Ye told him that the people in a village could all live to be one hundred and twenty years old; how could this not shock him.

"Ying Zi Ye, where is this mysterious village you mentioned? I want to send troops to find it!"

Ying Zheng's eyes were burning, his whole person was glowing, and he exuded a powerful aura.

It seemed as if he had affirmed longevity again.

"General Zhang Han!"

"This general is here!"

General Zhang Han bowed and waited for the First Emperor's order.

"Hey, hey, hey, wait a minute!"

Ying Ying Zi Ye hurriedly spoke to stop him.

"Father Emperor, what are you doing?"

"What am I doing? Hahaha, of course, I want to find that mysterious small village!"

"One hundred and twenty years old! If I can live another seventy years, I will definitely slaughter the Xiongnu!"

"No, let alone seventy years, even if you give me seven years or even seven months, I can dispatch a large army to destroy the Xiongnu!"

Ying Zheng's hearty laughter echoed in the Imperial Study.
