The Qin Dynasty entered the game with love.

Chapter 98 Successfully Borrowing Grain

Bai Changchuan pushed away the woman's hand, which was about to reach into his pocket, and said angrily, "What are you doing? Are you blaming me for being poisoned and taking your virginity?"

Ying Ji couldn't understand why the topic had shifted back to this; it was the same thing, but she still quickly begged for mercy.

"I misspoke, I deserve to be hit, don't be angry, how could I blame you? I asked for the medicine myself, and I kissed you on my own initiative, it was my fault."

The man glared at him, then grabbed his blanket and went to the next bedroom.

Ying Ji is going bald. Is this one thing she'll never get over? Other players can have several "sea kings" and they won't fall, but these two are already making people feel like they're in deep trouble.

I took out the letter from Zhang Liang, a thin sheet of paper that carried a deep affection, making it feel heavy in my hands.

When she took it out, she still started with greetings and expressions of longing, and explained her current situation in detail, but she didn't mention Bai Changchuan at all, not even a single ambiguous word.

Ying Ji understood, so she had no choice but to bite the bullet and write a love letter, though she had quite a few hidden agendas.

Take out Tuanzi's letter, which was written by Ying Zheng on his behalf. This little guy is the first to do this, having the first emperor of all time write the letter for him.

Ying Ji felt a little envious, but the thought of her own box full of thick family letters dispelled that envy.

Tuanzi cried, saying that she had no gold left, her creditors were still demanding repayment, and the God was also urging her to make progress. If she couldn't repay within three months, both of them would be blacklisted.

It even said that Ying Zheng's lack of proper rest was all thanks to it, which is why he was able to eat and sleep.

Even at the end, there were tears streaming down Tuanzi's face as she cried, and the signature was a plum blossom seal, which was very cute.

Although the letter didn't explicitly mention missing her, it's clear the little one wanted to send a letter like humans do and wait for a reply.

Ying Ji also wrote a letter very seriously. First, she praised Tuanzi for being so great, for being able to protect Ying Zheng so well even after being away for so long. She drew a chibi version of a little fox and said that she missed it very much and would definitely work hard to complete the mission so that Tuanzi would not be blacklisted.

Finally, he took out Ying Zheng's family letter. It was a family letter, but it also contained a lot of information. He wrote a few more words wishing his elder sister good health. Seeing the letter was like seeing her in person, which was already very kind.

But Yingji still put the letter in the box and treasured it, only this time there was an extra box that belonged exclusively to Tuanzi.

Ying Ji couldn't sleep well at night, so she sneaked into Bai Changchuan's bed in the middle of the night.

Only when nestled in the comforting embrace of a broad chest did I finally drift off to sleep peacefully.

Bai Changchuan didn't open his eyes until everyone was asleep. His gaze towards the woman was possessive, as if he wanted to devour her whole.

But his actions were extremely gentle. He brushed aside the strands of hair that were stuck to his mouth and lightly kissed her luscious lips until she let out a soft moan before letting her go.

Outside Zhang Ping's residence

Looking at the ten carts of grain, the expectant smile on his face could no longer be maintained: "What's wrong with this Ying Ji? Didn't she say she was in charge of sending grain, so she sent ten carts! What use are they?"

Fortunately, Niu Dazhuang had already left, otherwise he would definitely have said a few words to the princess when he got back.

Even though Zhang Ping was angry, he still accepted the grain. After all, he had put in a lot of his own money to make up for the King of Han's deficit, so these ten cartloads were better than nothing.

He put on his court robes and went to see King Han to explain the matter, which made King Han furious again.

He issued several orders to borrow grain from Zhao, Chu, and Qi. Wei even took a portion of the grain. The King of Han wanted to get it back, but unfortunately, he had initially planned to play both sides and prevent Qin from finding an excuse.

They bought it themselves, so it's impossible to return it.

Now that we've shot ourselves in the foot, there's no use saying anything more. We can only swallow our pride and send another message to Xianyang asking for grain.

To be on the safe side, he also sent letters to Zheng Guo, Han Fei, and Zhang Liang, who were in Qin.

Xianyang, Qin State

Zhang Liang received the letter and made no attempt to hide it, immediately inviting the three of them to the Xiaoyao Pavilion. This was a place that Zhang Liang had built himself because he found the Longmen Inn too ostentatious.

Ying Ji provided the land and funds, and Zhang Liang managed the rest himself.

Nowadays, it's also a good place for high-ranking officials and dignitaries to gather occasionally, enjoying themselves in peace and quiet. This place is truly a place of leisure and tranquility.

The three took their seats, with Zhang Liang in the main seat: "It's not abrupt that I invited you today, so please don't take offense, Young Master Han."

Han Fei, in a nonchalant manner, sat crookedly to one side and said, "It's no wonder. The Xiaoyao Pavilion is extremely expensive, and Han Fei can't afford it. I just happened to come and try it out."

Zheng Guo sat up straight and smiled憨厚ly: "Young Master Liang invited me, how could I dare to refuse? I suppose it's about the matter of borrowing grain from Han."

Zhang Liang nodded, then shook his head.

Han Fei leaned forward with a mischievous grin: "It seems the princess is indeed very popular with men. Ah Liang is jealous."

Zhang Liang pushed aside the irresponsible Han Fei: "The matter of Han borrowing grain is one thing, but it's easy to resolve. I've already sent a letter; I'm sure the princess understands."

Han Fei lay on the table: "Then... then... what about Bai Changchuan? You can put up with him, kid?"

Zhang Liang looked at the teacup, its texture delicate and its patterns clear. The tea leaves were also sent by Ying Ji on horseback at her request. He took a sip and said, "I knew she couldn't let go of him, but it's just a little too soon now."

Han Fei clicked his tongue: "This isn't like you."

Zhang Liang paused, "This isn't like him, it probably isn't anymore." He continued, "I probably am. I know what I'm doing, and that's enough."

Han Fei pursed his lips: "If you really didn't mind, you wouldn't have invited us over for drinks."

Zhang Liang picked up the teapot and poured a cup for the two of them: "We're not drinking wine, we're having tea."

Han Fei waved his hand dismissively: "Looks like there's no excitement to watch."

Zhang Liang shook his head: "I can't watch my show, but I can watch Honglian's."

Han Fei turned his head sharply: "What's wrong with Honglian? Her recent letters home are quite good. She even asked me to send her some things."

Zhang Liang smiled and said, "The chief swordsmanship teacher of Korea has been sent to teach Princess Honglian. It seems that the two have developed feelings for each other."

Han Fei was nervous at first, but then relaxed and waved his hand: "Don't worry, neither of them will do. Father will not let the princess marry a mere warrior."

Zhang Liang had met Gai Nie, a swordsman with a distinct and captivating personality. Although he had not yet met Wei Zhuang, he could roughly guess that Wei Zhuang must also be a man of great personal charm. Princess Honglian may seem innocent and cute, but she is not as vulnerable as one might think.

I wonder what kind of sparks will fly between the two of them; I'm really looking forward to it.

Zhang Liang glanced at Han Fei, who seemed completely unconcerned, smiled silently, and waited to see the show unfold.

Sinzheng, South Korea

The King of Han looked at the replies from the other states, all of which refused to lend grain. Only the State of Qin was willing to help, but they wanted to charge the principal at the market price.

Although the King of Han was displeased, the attitude of the other countries displeased him even more. Not to mention how much grain he had lent out before, now no one was willing to lend him any more, which was disheartening.

Give the King of Qin's grain loan notice to Zhang Ping and tell him to quickly gather the grain back.

Zhang Ping could only continue searching for Ying Ji, but Ying Ji and Bai Changchuan had disappeared without a trace.

After searching for three days, they finally found the two people soaking in a hot spring in the suburbs.

Zhang Ping knew the other party was trying to manipulate him, but he still took out Zhang Liang's letter: "Why did you leave without a word, Princess? Liang'er sent a letter, which should have been delivered to the inn, but since you're not here, I had to ask this old man to deliver it for you."

Ying Ji replied gently, "Father-in-law, you're too kind. We're all family. I just went out for a couple of days. I just happened to have some free time, so I took some people for a walk."

Zhang Ping chuckled: "It's true that young people love to have fun, but we should put national and family affairs first."

Ying Ji took the letter but did not open it in front of him. She took her leave immediately, which infuriated Zhang Ping.
