From the beginning of the game of power, I became the protagonist

Seeing Ying Zheng's face droop even more after hearing this, Chen Hui said calmly, "What was Qin like before the reform? In the Battle of Hexi, Qin was severely damaged by Wei. Duke Xian of Qin died on the battlefield. Duke Xiao of Qin, Ying Quliang, was appointed to the throne and was forced to cede territory to Wei in exchange for peace, even surrendering Hangu Pass."

"It can be said that at that time, the Qin State was only one step away from national destruction and annihilation."

"It was Shang Jun, this peerless genius who emerged from nowhere and single-handedly saved the Qin State from collapse, ultimately becoming the world's most powerful being."

"But, despite such a tremendous feat of saving the day, I can't even get back my whole body."

"Ying Zheng! You Yings have done too much! King Huiwen of Qin, Ying Si, has done too much! No other powerful minister will be willing to help Qin with its reforms! There will never be another Shang Yang!"

Hearing this, Ying Zheng closed his eyes in pain. After a long while, he heaved a long sigh and said word by word: "So... Is the Great Qin really hopeless?"

"." It was the same question, but Chen Hui was too lazy to answer it this time.

"If the Qin State is destroyed, what will happen to the Ying family?" Ying Zheng hesitated for a long time before finally asking this question.

"I want to ask you a question, Ying Zheng," Chen Hui said calmly, "Where are the royal families of the six kingdoms now?"

Yes, the royal families of the six countries were all destroyed by your Qin State. Why should your Qin royal family be an exception?

Although he had expected this, when he suddenly heard the answer he was most unwilling to accept, Ying Zheng still closed his eyes and raised his head, trying hard not to let the tears fall, and stood there stiffly for a long, long time. . . . . .

. . . . . .

After a long while, Ying Zheng finally lowered his head slowly, looked at Chen Hui and said, "You just said you wanted to ask me for something, what is it?"

"The 'Heavenly Questions' sword." Chen Hui said lightly.

Ying Zheng nodded upon hearing this, and immediately untied the 'Heavenly Questions' sword from his waist, placing it on the table in front of him. He stared at Chen Hui and said, "I have a request."

That’s right, it was a request. Ying Zheng had no right to give orders to another emperor who was no less powerful than himself, he could only make a request.

"Please speak." Chen Hui nodded slowly.

"There are two people. Please protect them." Ying Zheng said in a deep voice, word by word, "May they be safe forever."

"Okay." Chen Hui didn't ask who it was. He nodded and said, "In the name of Emperor Hongwu, I promise to protect their safety for the rest of their lives."

As he spoke, Chen Hui put his iron-blooded mask back on his face, picked up the 'Heavenly Questions' sword in front of him, and then stood up from his seat. He said in a deep voice, word by word, "I will be waiting outside the south gate of Xianyang City. When you are ready, send those two people out."

Having said this, Chen Hui turned around and prepared to leave.

"Emperor Hongwu!"

At this moment, Ying Zheng suddenly opened his mouth and shouted, "How will future history books write about me?"

"Six words." Chen Hui didn't turn around after hearing this. He just said in a deep voice with his back to Ying Zheng: "Ying Zheng, the politics of a thousand years."

"Thank you." Ying Zheng sighed upon hearing this, and folded his hands again to bow to Chen Hui's back. When he raised his head, he found that there was no other figure in the hall except himself.

In the deathly silence, Ying Zheng sat there for a long time, then suddenly slammed the table and shouted, "Someone come!"

Two hours later, an ordinary carriage without any gorgeous decorations slowly drove out of the south gate of Xianyang City under the control of a deaf-mute coachman.

Chen Hui walked out slowly from the darkness. Seeing the special appearance of the man in black robe and ghost mask, the deaf-mute coachman immediately stopped the carriage and nodded to him slowly.

Seeing this, Chen Hui said nothing, reached out to open the door of the carriage, and saw two people sitting inside.

A girl and a child.

With a beautiful face that could not be concealed even by a plain dress and a thorny hairpin, the young girl bowed to Chen Hui and said in a sweet voice, "I am Ying Yinman, daughter of the Ying family, and I am honored to meet the Master of Ghost Face."

As she spoke, Ying Yinman turned to look at a boy who was about three years old at most and still had a confused look on his face. She said in a deep voice with a gloomy expression, "This is my brother Fusu's sixth son, Ying Ziqing."

"..." Chen Hui was silent for a moment after hearing this, then said calmly, "From this moment on, your name will be 'Xiao Yue', and you are my new concubine."

Then, Chen Hui turned his gaze to the still confused Ying Ziqing and said in a deep voice, "He is your only brother and my adopted son. His name is Yi An."

"If you still have anything with the Ying family's mark on you, it's best to take it out and throw it away now."

"Thank you, my husband, for your mercy. Xiaoyue and my younger brother Yi'an come to you to express our gratitude." Ying Yinman pulled Ying Ziqing, who had changed his name to Yi'an, to bow before slowly shaking her head. "Please rest assured, my husband, Xiaoyue and Yi'an have no relics from their previous lives. The past is like smoke and has nothing to do with us anymore."

Chen Hui nodded when he heard this, and immediately climbed onto the carriage. He patted the deaf-mute coachman in front of him to signal him to set off.

Let's go. The next time we come to Xianyang City, it will be the time for Chen Hui to rule the world.

Chapter 78: After the Qin Dynasty, I Will Rule the World (Please Customize!)

When Chen Hui rushed from Loulan to Xianyang City, it took him less than two days because he traveled day and night. He then spent another day or so exploring the environment before he was able to sneak in successfully.

When returning to Loulan from Xianyang City, it took him seven full days to finally reach his destination because he had two extra people with him.

When Chen Hui appeared in front of the girls, unharmed, Xiao Yu, who had been anxiously waiting for days, suddenly burst into joy. She hugged Chen Hui, crying and laughing, and it took a long time for her to calm down.

"Silly girl, why are you crying? I told you that destiny is with me. Nothing will happen." Glancing at the other women who were also excited, Chen Hui smiled slightly and took out the 'Heavenly Questions' sword from his space and handed it to her. He said with a smile, "Thank goodness you have fulfilled your mission. You have the sword. Now you can go back to Shushan and solve the problem of Yu Yuan's seal."

Trembling, Xiao Yu took the 'Heavenly Questions' sword and gazed at the striking seal-script character 'Qin' on the scabbard. Knowing how difficult all this had been, his eyes flushed with excitement as he exclaimed, "Yi Lang, the entire Shushan Sect, and the entire land of Bashu, will never forget your great kindness."

"As long as you stop crying so carelessly, it will be fine. Girls look better when they smile more." Reaching out and embracing the girl in his arms, Chen Hui suddenly raised a wicked smile on his face. He leaned down and whispered in Xiao Yu's ear, "If my little beauty really wants to thank me, why not do it tonight?"

No one knew what Chen Hui had said, but Xiao Yu's face instantly turned red as blood. He suddenly pushed Chen Hui away and ran away holding the "Tianwen" sword.

It looked as if if he ran a little slower, he would be eaten by the big bad wolf behind him.

Seeing the little girl running faster than a rabbit, the girls couldn't help but laugh. Then they saw Yan Fei approaching with lotus steps. She stared at Ying Yin Man and Ying Zi Qing who were following behind Chen Hui, and asked with a smile: "Yi Lang, who are these two..."

"This is Xiaoyue, my new concubine." Chen Hui said calmly, "This is Xiaoyue's younger brother, my new adopted son—Yi'an."

"." Yan Fei was silent for a moment after hearing this. She looked deeply at Ying Yinman and Ying Ziqing, nodded and smiled, "So, my new sister, welcome, welcome. We'll be family from now on."

As she spoke, Yan Fei enthusiastically took Ying Yinman's hand, pulled her among the women, and introduced her to them one by one.

As for Ying Ziqing, Gao Yue, who was a little older, took him out to play.

Looking at Ying Yinman who quickly became friends with the girls, and Ying Ziqing who was having fun with Gao Yue in the distance, Chen Hui couldn't help but smack his lips and turned to leave.

After all, I am about to leave Loulan, and I have to say goodbye to the high priest and Xiao Li.

. .

. .

. .

Late at night, room.

When everything returned to calm, Yan Fei lay quietly on Chen Hui's chest, her slender fingers playfully drawing circles.

After a while, Yan Fei, who had finally recovered a little, slowly raised her head and looked at Chen Hui, who was now deep in thought with his eyes open, and asked softly, "Yi Lang, that Xiao Yue is actually the daughter of Qin Emperor Ying Zheng, right?"

"I knew I couldn't hide it from you." Chen Hui sighed softly when he heard this. He was not surprised at all. Not to mention Yan Fei's superb Yin-Yang magic, just based on her experience as the Crown Princess of Yan, how could she not see the princess demeanor that could not be concealed in Ying Yinman's every move.

Not to mention Yan Fei, even Shao Siming and Duanmu Rong probably have an idea of ​​what's going on.

After all, although they had never seen Ying Yinman, they had met many nobles, and the nobles' manners could not be hidden from them.

"This is the condition for giving me the 'Heavenly Questions' sword," Chen Hui said expressionlessly, "You must ensure their safety for the rest of their lives."

"Ying Zheng would actually entrust his son to you?" Yan Fei exclaimed in disbelief. "That's Qin Emperor Ying Zheng! The Qin Shi Huang who swept across the world and unified the country, actually entrusted his son to you, a great Mohist scholar!"

"When a bird is about to die, its cry is mournful; when a person is about to die, his words are kind." Chen Hui pondered calmly: "No matter how magnificent Ying Zheng's life was, the moment he realized his life was about to end, he was just an ordinary human being."

"The end is near. Ying Zheng is no longer the mighty Qin Shi Huang, but merely a father concerned about the safety and future of his children."

"And in Ying Zheng's understanding, most of the people he can trust are closely connected to the empire. When the time comes, everyone will suffer together, and no one will be able to escape."

"As for those who are not members of the imperial forces, they basically all hate Ying Zheng to the core and cannot trust him at all."

"So, with no other choice, I, a Mohist master with sufficient ability and only a conflict of interest, without any personal grudges, am the best person to entrust your orphan to."

"After all, trusting me is like Ying Zheng trusting himself."

"You really understand him, Yi Lang." Yan Fei rested her head on Chen Hui's chest, listening to the strong heartbeat inside. She sighed with deep emotion, "Sometimes I have the illusion that you and Ying Zheng are just the same person. You really have so many similarities."

"Nonsense, at least I don't have any delusions of immortality." After patting Yan Fei's jade back twice, Chen Hui didn't want to continue this topic. He said directly in a deep voice: "Take some time to talk to Ling Yi, Rong Rong and the others. Don't reveal anything. Just treat Xiao Yue as an ordinary sister."

"Okay." Knowing that this matter was of great importance, Dongjun Yanfei did not dare to neglect it. She nodded immediately and said, "Then...what about Yi An?"

"My promise is to keep the two of you safe for the rest of your lives." Chen Hui said calmly, "As long as we're safe and sound, that's all that matters. Do you understand?"

"I understand." Yan Fei understood what she meant. It meant that there was no need to teach Ying Yinman and Ying Ziqing any knowledge about martial arts and strategies. It was enough for these two people to live a safe and happy life.

In this case, Gao Yue should not be allowed to have more contact with Ying Ziqing, because this boy is destined to have no future.

She, the daughter of Dongjun Yanfei, will be the most noble princess of the new dynasty. How could she be paired with a useless person who has accomplished nothing? It must be the most outstanding young talent in the world.

"Yi Lang..." Thinking of this, Yan Fei hesitated for a while, but finally couldn't help but say: "The Great Qin...will soon perish, right?"

"Yeah, soon." Chen Hui nodded slowly. "At the fastest, one or two years. At the slowest, three or four years."

"At that time, Yi Lang, you would be the emperor of the Xin Dynasty, right?" Yan Fei took a deep breath and finally asked the question she wanted to know the answer to the most.

"Yes, that's right." Chen Hui nodded calmly and said, "In three to five years at the shortest, seven to eight years at the longest, I will unify the world and ascend the throne as emperor."

Seeing the majestic and domineering aura that was faintly revealed in the calmness of this man, Yan Fei felt her heart beating like a drum for a moment. After a long while, she finally breathed a sigh of relief and buried her face deeply in Chen Hui's chest. She murmured with infinite emotion, "I really hope that this day will come sooner, so that there will be no more wars in the world."

"."

Chen Hui was silent for a moment after hearing this, and didn't say anything for a long time. He just stared at the ceiling quietly, with a meaningful smile on his lips.

Silly girl, how can we not have to fight?

There is no such thing as an eternal dynasty in this world.

No matter how glorious it was in the past, when the destined day comes, the tragedy is still inevitable.

The only thing we can do is to try our best to postpone the arrival of this day as long as possible.

As for the rest, we can only hope for those who come later.

Talents emerge in every generation, and our great China will definitely not be without successors.

Chapter 79: So what if the Sword Master is just a dog? (Please customize)

The next morning, after everything was ready, Chen Hui led a group of companions to formally bid farewell to the high priest and Xiao Li, and left the ancient kingdom of Loulan where they had stayed for more than half a year.

On the way back to the Mo family mechanical city, Xiao Yu left the main force first and rushed back to Shushan with the "Tianwen" sword to solve the problem of Yu Yuan's seal.

As for safety, there is no need to worry about it. Although Xiao Yu has been troubled by Yan Fei during this period, he has indeed learned a lot of advanced secret techniques from her. His strength has broken through to the level of an elder of the Yin-Yang family. As long as he doesn't run into top masters of the level of Yue Shen Xing Hun, there will be no problem.

As for the possibility of encountering this unfortunate event, haha, have you forgotten that Xiao Yu is actually the famous Yu Meiren in history? She was also blessed with good fortune, a child of destiny, so how could she fail so easily?

After solving the problem of the Shushan seal, there was nothing urgent to do in the short term, so Chen Hui and his group did not need to rush. They traveled along the way, enjoying the mountains and rivers, stopping and walking.

During this process, Chen Hui also formally married Ying Yinman, turning this princess of the Qin Dynasty, who was famous in history, from a budding young girl into a real woman.

Isn't this nonsense? Such a beautiful woman is right in front of you. If you don't eat her, you will be struck by lightning.

Besides, if he didn't eat the Qin Emperor while he was still alive, what if Ying Zheng died someday? Wouldn't Ying Yin Man have to observe three years of mourning? Chen Hui didn't want to wait that long to pluck this extremely beautiful royal flower.

After all, when flowers are ready to be picked, pick them immediately, and don't wait until there are no flowers left and you are left with empty branches.

No problem, I accept it.

This taste is really addictive.

After officially becoming one of their own, the women's attitudes towards Ying Yinman became visibly closer.

Although they all knew the true identity of "Xiao Yue", since Chen Hui said her name was "Xiao Yue", no matter what Ying Yinman's background was, she now only had the identity of "Xiao Yue".

She is just a concubine of Chen Hui and a future imperial consort.

As for Ying Ziqing, who goes by the alias Yi An?

After knowing that this child had no future, the very realistic Yan Fei was too lazy to pay attention to him, and did not allow Gao Yue to have any contact with him. Instead, she asked Duanmu Rong to help Ying Yin Man and take care of this boy who was less than three years old.

After all, among all the women, apart from Yan Fei, only Duanmu Rong has experience in raising children.

What's more, the child's body is very weak. With the personal care of Duanmu Rong, the "Mirror Lake Medical Fairy", the child can be prevented from contracting any disease.

Since Chen Hui said that he would keep the child safe for the rest of his life, he naturally couldn't let anything happen to him.

Promises must be fulfilled.

In this way, after more than a month of delay, Chen Hui and his party finally completed the journey of only a few hundred miles and returned to the Mo family's mechanical city.

Then, he was quite shocked by the current lineup in the Mechanical City.

Sword Saint Gai Nie, Liusha Wei Zhuang, Renzong Xiaoyaozi, Confucian Zhang Liang, Xiang Shaoyu and other members of the Xiang family, and even several hall masters of the farming family, were all waiting for him in the Mechanical City at this moment.
