No good, no good, the Qin people brought new monsters. "A pawn hurried in and said to Augustus with tears in his eyes: "We are finished. "

Augustus drew his sword and struck the pawn on the head.

The pawn was startled and quickly backed away, finally escaping.

Augustus didn't hit the target with his sword, so he lost interest and asked calmly: "What happened again?"

The soldier said tremblingly: "The Qin people brought a monster. This monster is very huge, like a giant centipede."

"This centipede can swallow clouds and spit out mist, making loud noises, and it is extremely fast. Just now, the villain saw with his own eyes that thousands of Qin soldiers emerged from the centipede's belly, and Qin soldiers carried grain and grass from inside."

Augustus said, "I understand."

Now Augustus became very Buddhist.

When bad news comes, just kill the messenger. If you can't cut it... then forget it.

In order to deal with the Qin people, he has tried countless methods.

He killed his beloved David, imprisoned Antony, and gave all his troops to his ministers.

But it seems to be of no use at all.

Augustus was now addicted to alcohol and thought about drunkenness and death all day long.

As for the big centipede and the Qin soldiers in the centipede's belly...

Whatever, Augustus was used to it.

No matter what bizarre things the Qin people did, he would not be surprised. Even if one day the Qin people pulled the gods from the sky to help, Augustus would think it was normal.

This world is so crazy.

At the same time, the ministers were discussing with the elders.

These senators held high positions and were displeased with the ignorant Augustus.

The ministers held military power and were full of confidence, and said to the senators: "How about you elect me to be the new Augustus?"

It turned out that they looked at each other and said quietly: "It's so good, why do you want to replace Augustus?"

The minister said: "If I become Augustus, I will give you more rights, more land, and more slaves."

As soon as these words came out, the elders next to him were all tempted.

They said quietly: "We don't care about power and wealth. It's just...the Kingdom of the Gods is very dangerous now, but Augustus is drunk all day long. If we let it go on like this, we will all He became a prisoner of the Qin people."

"So, for the people of the Kingdom of Gods and for the common interests of everyone, we have to do the brightest and right thing."

"I think the gods will definitely bless us again after hearing about it."

Konomi nodded vigorously.

The senators said: "You think of a way to have Augustus come to the Senate. We will make arrangements for the rest, so you don't have to worry about it."

The near minister responded: "Don't worry."

Afterwards, the ministers happily returned to their homes and began plotting with their confidants on how to get rid of Augustus.

Getting rid of Augustus is easy, just pull out the dagger and stab it in.

Augustus had been getting drunk a lot lately, and there were plenty of opportunities to do so.

But the key is, what happens after killing Augustus? Will it still be controlled by the Senate? That's absolutely not okay.

The close minister was a very ambitious man. He planned to kill Augustus and then take the opportunity to accuse the Senate and destroy the Senate as well.

It is said that the emperor of the Qin Dynasty always meant what he said. Konomi is really envious...

"Brother Huai, when do you think we can go back?" Li Xin asked Li Shui lazily while sitting in a wheelchair, drinking.

Li Xin's appearance is similar to that of Augustus.

Li Shui next to him was in the same posture. While drinking water, he sighed and said: "The progress of the project is a bit slow. It will probably take a few months."

"The main reason is that the craftsmen here are not good, and the mineral deposits are not good either. I remember there are large coal mines and iron mines here. Why is it so difficult to explore?"

Li Xin looked at Li Shui curiously: "Brother Huai, how do you know there are large iron ore and coal mines here?"

Li Shui snorted: "Then what... I am an immortal, I can pinch and calculate, so for this small matter, I will know what is going on after a little calculation."

Li Xin snorted and asked Li Shui, "Then can you help me calculate when I can return to Daqin and Xianyang?"

Li Shui asked Li Xin in confusion: "Brother Li, what did you do? Why do you want to go back all day long?"

Li Xin touched his biceps: "For strong and healthy people like us, some needs are relatively strong. You don't understand."

Li Shui: "..."

He leaned close to Li Xin's ear and whispered: "I have some secret recipes for preventing baldness, are you interested?"

Li Xin was stunned for a moment, his eyes shining.

Then he coughed dryly: "What, I don't need it."

Li Shui looked at Li Xin's bun and said, "Brother Li, do you think no one will see it if you hide it?"

Li Xinxin touched his bun in vain: "How did you tell?"

Li Shui said: "In our fairy world, there is a wise saying. I have become stronger, and I have also become bald. This is obviously the case for you, Brother Li."

Li Xin coughed dryly: "Then what is your secret recipe?"

Li Shui said: "Some are quick and some are slow. Which one do you listen to?"

Li Xin said: "Of course it will work quickly."

Li Shui said: "According to my research, hair loss is caused by excessive secretion of something, and the person responsible for secreting this thing is..."

Li Shui coughed dryly and said to Li Xin: "I am a shameless person, and there are some things I can't say."

Li Xin: "...can you stop talking nonsense? Your words are shameless enough."

Li Shui cleared his throat: "Let me put it bluntly. Eunuchs in the palace will not be bald. The easiest way to prevent baldness is to have a knife."

Li Xin: "..."

He shook his head: "No need, for a few hairs, the price is too high to become a mutilated person."

Li Shui added: "Then we can only use slow methods. The slow method is to take medicine. One is applied on the top of the head, and the other is taken orally."

"Both drugs have some side effects and may affect that function. But don't worry, it's just a certain chance, not everyone will be affected."

"Even if you are unfortunately affected, it will not affect your use. My wife will still be very loving to you."

Li Xin looked Li Shui up and down for a while, and said quietly: "It's strange, why do you understand him so well? Could it be that you have become a good doctor after a long illness?"

Li Shui coughed dryly: "That's not the case. After I arrived in the barbarian country, I saw that there were many bald people here, so I remembered the prescription of the fairy world."

Li Xin snorted: "Then this medicine..."

Li Shui said: "It hasn't been developed yet. I'll tell Shangjun Courtyard later and ask them to speed up the development."

Li Xin: "...Is it like a telegram? I have to wait until the Year of the Monkey and the Moon again?"

Li Shui coughed dryly: "Don't be so pessimistic. This thing is different from a telegram."

Li Xin breathed a sigh of relief.

Li Shui added: "Its research and development cycle should be longer than that of the telegraph."

Li Xin: "..."

Li Shui looked at the barbarians coming and going, especially at their shiny heads, and thought: I helped you research the antidote for baldness two thousand years in advance. This problem should be solved now.

At this time, a soldier came over and said to Li Shui: "According to the detailed report we sent to the barbarian leader, there has been a lot of turmoil there recently, and it seems like something big is going to happen."

Li Shui said, "What's the big deal?"

The soldier said: "Before, Augustus had a close minister. Now that the close minister has taken over the military power, he gradually becomes less respectful to Augustus."

"Recently, he has been in and out of the Senate frequently, as if he is plotting with the Senate to kill Augustus and establish himself as king."

Li Shui nodded and said: "This is easy to handle. Write a surrender letter to Augustus and ask him to surrender as soon as possible. By the way, tell him that the ministers are going to rebel."

The pawn was stunned: "Are you going to tell him so straightforwardly?"

Li Shui hummed: "Helping others is the foundation of happiness."

The pawn said: "However, after telling him, wouldn't he be able to destroy the conspiracy of the nearby ministers to rebel? This conspiracy has been destroyed. Then won't the barbarian country be stabilized?"

Li Shui said: "Even when the barbarian country is stable, it is no match for us."

"What's more, can they really stabilize? The ministers have already taken control of the military, will they just surrender?"

"At that time, there will definitely be a fight between Augustus and his ministers, plus the Senate... it will definitely become a mess."

"I don't know who will win or lose among these three parties. I only know that our battle will be smoother."

The pawn nodded in agreement and said with admiration: "The banishment of the immortal is really a clever plan."

Afterwards, the pawn hurried away to arrange for someone to write a letter.

After the pawn left, Li Shui said to Li Xin: "Brother Li, I'm bored, should we take a gamble?"

Li Xin said lazily: "What are you betting on? I'm not interested in anything now."

Li Shui said: "Let's bet on who will be the next Augustus of the barbarian country."

Li Xin thought for a while and said, "The minister has already taken control of the military. It should be the minister, right?"

Li Shui said: "I think that the minister is from a humble background. Although he has military power, it was given by Augustus and he may not be wise enough to use it. So I choose Augustus."

Li Xin smiled: "Then we can bet. But what is the bet?"

Li Shui thought for a moment and said, "The bet is... you carry me to court."

Li Xin: "...Brother Huai, you are so boring. If I win, will you carry me to court?"

Li Shui nodded: "Of course."

Li Xin said: "Can you carry it?"

Li Shui smiled: "You win first and then talk."

…………

The secret letter has been placed on Augustus' desk.

Augustus looked at the secret letter and fell into deep thought.

In fact, he could feel that something was wrong with Konomi recently.

In the past, the ministers wished they could be around to serve him every day, but since they took over the military power, they have never been seen again.

Augustus couldn't find him even if he took the initiative to look for him.

Augustus was wary, but he didn't want to care.

The people of Qin are about to swallow up the entire kingdom of gods. Augustus was a little tired.

He wanted to drink and use alcohol to numb himself.

Are the people around you going to rebel now?

Augustus would rather lie to himself and tell himself that there is no such thing.

However, when the secret letter was put on the desk, Augustus knew that he could no longer escape.

So he wrote several letters and gave them to the generals in the army.

The close ministers had control of this army for too short a time, and there was no time to replace everyone with their cronies.

This is his fatal flaw.

The letter was sent quickly and a reply was quickly received.

These generals expressed their continued support for Augustus.

Augustus breathed a sigh of relief after seeing these letters. Then he selected some loyal guards around him and claimed that he was going to the Senate.

When the Senate heard that Augustus was coming, they were all in high spirits and made serious preparations.

They first bathed and changed clothes, and then quietly waited for Augustus' arrival with their swords in hand.

Augustus, finally arrived.

The minister also arrived with people.

The people in the Senate looked at Augustus with smiles and saluted him respectfully.

When Augustus returned the salute, everyone in the Senate suddenly rushed over and stabbed Augustus with daggers.

However, the dagger failed to penetrate Augustus' body.

Under his white robe, there was soft armor.

The nearby minister was shocked and couldn't help shouting: "Cut his head off, chop off his head."

After shouting this, Konomi felt a little regretful.

His original plan was to wait for the Senate to kill Augustus, and then kill everyone in the Senate in the name of revenge for Augustus.

As a result, the generals in the army were leaderless and could only take orders from themselves.

And there would be no problem for him to inherit the position of Augustus.

It's a pity... When the minister saw Augustus wearing soft armor, he was so panicked that he couldn't help shouting this sentence.

By saying this, doesn't he clearly tell others that he is an accomplice?

The minister hesitated for a second, and soon made up his mind: since he had been exposed, he would kill Augustus.

As for what to do after killing, that's another matter.

So he rushed over with his sword in hand.

Augustus retreated continuously. As he retreated, he shouted frantically to his guards: "Kill them, kill them all."

As a result, these guards swarmed up and began to attack the senate and ministers.

As for the people brought by the ministers, they were completely stunned.

The close ministers did not tell them their plans.

After all, he wanted to be upright and ascend to the position of Augustus justifiably.

Now when these people saw the ministers starting to kill Augustus, they all felt that this was a treasonous thing, and even suspected that they were dreaming.

At this time, Augustus pointed at them and said: "Most of these people also participated, kill them all together."

So the guards rushed towards these people.

For a time, the Senate was in chaos. 1603382178
