Chapter 91
"After Great Qin is completely stabilized, I will tell you."
"Knowing now is useless; Great Qin has no grain and fodder, and Great Qin has not yet truly unified."
The group fell silent after hearing this; Ying Ying Zi Ye's words were indeed facts.
The remnants of the Six States were restless, and the people were severely lacking in grain.
Currently, only after grain and fodder were sufficient could these matters be perfectly solved.
Previously, they had no way, but now with sweet potatoes and potatoes, this would be the opportunity for Great Qin to be officially strong and stable!
As long as it was operated well, Great Qin could be guaranteed peace for decades!
Wang Jian heard that the world was big, far beyond Great Qin, and that there were many powerful empires outside Great Qin.
A strange brilliance shone in his eyes, and his hunched body seemed to sit up straighter.
But seeing his rough palms that once held weapons, which still had an unconscious slight tremor, he sighed heavily.
"Ninth Prince, do you think this old minister's body can still fight for the country?"
Wang Jian stretched out his wrinkled, old hand, which was like a withered tree.
The others saw Old General Wang's rough arm, and all had expressions of sorrow.
The generation's imperial Wucheng Marquis, General Wang Jian, was now also old.
Ying Ying Zi Ye reached out and touched Old General Wang Jian's palm.
Dry, rough, and bloodless—this was a withered and powerless hand.
This was a large hand that had once killed countless enemies.
The current Wang Jian should be about seventy years old.
If the Taiji Life-Nourishing Technique had an effect, living another fifty years would not be a difficult thing.
"Old General Wang, what if this prince has a way to let you live another fifty years?"
"Can you fight on the battlefield?"
Everyone present was shocked.
Live another fifty years?!
They all looked at Ying Ying Zi Ye with disbelief.
Looking as if they had seen a ghost.
What kind of concept was fifty years?
In this era, fifty years was often a person's whole life!
And some people might not necessarily live healthily to fifty!
"This... how is this possible?"
"This must not be true!"
"Old General Wang is now seventy-two; to live another fifty years, wouldn't that be... one hundred and twenty-two?"
"Impossible! How can a person live so long?"
"However... if this is true, the world will be shaken!"
Li Xin and the others looked at Ying Ying Zi Ye with disbelief.
And Ying Ying Zi Ye was calm and composed, just looking at Old General Wang Jian like this.
"Ninth Prince, you... you are not deceiving this old minister?"
Wang Jian's face was full of suspicion, but he was vaguely excited.
Previously, he knew he had lost the hope of living on.
So he could treat death calmly.
Having fought for years, his body had been injured countless times; several times he had struggled on the edge of death, and his body had long since buried countless hidden dangers.
Being able to live to this age was only possible by taking medicine all year round.
Now hearing that he could live another fifty years, regardless of whether it was true or false, there was a tremor in his heart.
If one could truly live on, no one would choose to die!
Not to mention fifty years, even living another five or ten years would be enough.
"This matter is absolutely true; such a major event, how can it be a child's play?"
"Old General Wang is a key minister of the empire; how would Ying Zi Ye dare to deceive the old general."
Ying Ying Zi Ye looked at the crowd, and from their eyes, he could see expressions of shock and distrust.
But Fu Su's eyes were burning, staring at him fixedly without stopping.
"Ninth Brother, is this method of yours useful?"
"Father Emperor's body is becoming increasingly weak; should this method be told to Father Emperor?"
Fu Su did not care whether it was true or false; Father Emperor's body was very weak recently.
This was something everyone knew; if Father Emperor fell, Great Qin would be in danger.
So upon hearing there was a method to extend life, he thought of Father Emperor first.
As long as Father Emperor was there, Great Qin would always be stable.
Although his governing philosophy was different from Father Emperor's, he was not stupid.
"Imperial Brother, rest assured; I have also told Father Emperor this method, and he is using it. If there are no accidents, living another few decades is not a problem."
Ying Ying Zi Ye knew Brother Zheng's lifespan was only thirty days left, and he did not know if this method could work.
He had also thought that in the future, this Taiji Life-Nourishing Technique could only be opened to those who had made great contributions to Great Qin.
As for those without any contributions, sorry, they did not deserve to live so long.
Everyone present heard this and was shocked.
They did not expect that even His Majesty had already used this method.
Then it should be true without a doubt.
Wang Jian was excited, his whole body trembling non-stop.
And Wang Ben and Wang Li were even more excited beyond measure.
With two thumps, they knelt down directly.
"Please, Ninth Prince, bestow the method... to save my father!"
"Please, Ninth Prince, bestow the method... to save my grandfather!"
Wang Jian's face was flushed, his knees bent, and he also wanted to kneel, but was supported by Ying Ying Zi Ye.
"Ninth Prince, what price does this old minister need to pay to obtain this method?"
He knew that there was no such thing as a free lunch in the world; if there was, it must be a trap.
To obtain something, one must pay for something.
This was an eternal truth; he had lived to an old age and lived transparently.
Wang Ben and Wang Li, the father and son, looked at each other and also thought of this point.
This was a method of longevity; wanting to obtain it without paying a price was nothing but a pipe dream. ===== CHAPTER 93 =====
