When Ying Zheng heard this in mid-air, his eyebrows were furrowed. As a superior person with supreme power, what he likes to do most is to complicate simple things. In one breath, he thought a lot, from Zhuzi The anti-Qin forces in hundreds of families, to his heir Fusu, his general and prime minister Li Si, the unfathomable power of the East Emperor Taiyi of the Yin and Yang family, and even the barbarians in the north...
Uh-huh!
At the moment when he was thinking, the spiritual energy that enveloped him accelerated instantly, and with a plume of purple mist, he suddenly landed. For a time, the long street was filled with thick purple energy, and the location where Ying Zheng landed was even more difficult to discern with the naked eye.
Such an astonishing thing naturally shocked the people on the long street, Prime Minister Li Si, and thousands of soldiers.
"There is a sound of falling to the ground. See if it's Your Majesty?" Prime Minister Li Si suddenly shouted loudly.
Twenty soldiers bravely stepped forward. Suddenly, there was a rustling sound in the mist, and the soldiers' hearts tightened.
"It's me"
With a cold voice, Ying Zheng walked over with a cold expression.
Twenty soldiers quickly knelt on the ground, and the people behind them also knelt down when they heard the sound.
The purple energy quickly faded, and Ying Zheng walked up to Li Si. After looking at it for a long time, he slowly said: "The immortal said, my empire is in danger. If he dynasty, once I die, the empire will fall apart. Ai Qing thinks how?"
Li Si's expression was stagnant. He never expected that what your Majesty brought back was bad news. After thinking for a while, he replied with a serious face: "Today we are unifying and the empire is at its peak. Why is it so dangerous? Your Majesty, I'm afraid... "
At this point, Li Si suddenly stopped. He felt a pair of sharp and cold eyes scanning him, making it difficult for him to breathe.
"Prime Minister, I don't want to hear flattery."
After hearing these cold words, Li Si put away his other thoughts and analyzed them carefully.
"Now the six kingdoms have been destroyed, and the remnants are in vain. All I care about is governing the country. Right now, now..." At this point, Li Si stopped again. As a genius politician who can control the world and hide everything within the universe, he can see many things at a glance. He could see the clues, but for the sake of Mingzhe's own safety, he did not dare to say more.
"Continue." There was no emotion or anger on Ying Zheng's face.
Seeing that His Majesty's attitude towards him was very different from usual, Li Si was worried, so he simply took a gamble and spoke out his thoughts.
"After the unification of the world, His Majesty implemented good policies such as writing with the same text, chariots with the same track, and the system of prefectures and counties. However, he also made some fatal mistakes. When he should have rested and recuperated, your Majesty continued to send troops southward, often hundreds of thousands; and the corvee was also constant. Building straight roads, building the Great Wall, building the Ling Canal, building Afang Palace, and the 700,000 prisoners in Lishan Mountain. Countless people died from exhaustion every day. Your Majesty completed a hundred years' work in ten years, and the people's strength was exhausted. Your Majesty was still able to suppress it. Stay tuned, once something unbearable happens, the successors may not be able to hold on to the Qin Dynasty. Your Majesty, keeping a business is more difficult than starting a business!"
After listening to what Li Si said, Ying Zheng fell into silence for a long time. In the past, if Li Si dared to say such things to him, he would have been imprisoned without questioning, and he would not be able to take the position of prime minister. However, today I saw the immortal and the recent one. With the elixir (Transformation Pill) nearby, his thoughts changed subtly.
"Your Majesty, I am a direct minister."
After that, Ying Zheng boarded the chariot with an expressionless expression, and drove away under the protection of the soldiers.
Li Si secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Today's matter is over.

On the edge of the floating fairy mountain, Chu Feng stood with his hands behind his back, a smile on his face. Who said there were no understanding people in the Qin Dynasty? Li Si was the one who told the truth when forced by Ying Zheng.
The abuse of people's power leads to instability in the country. For such a simple reason, most emperors and even mediocre emperors in later generations will understand why Qin Shihuang could not think of it, and later Emperor Sui Yang could not think of it. The reason is very simple. They were too confident, and they were so self-confident that they were willful. .
In this regard, there was one emperor who did a better job, that is Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. He was very militaristic throughout his life, which caused thousands of villages to fall into thorns. Fortunately, he woke up in time in his later years, issued a sinful edict, cultivated himself, and drove the Han Dynasty from one end into the abyss. The wild horse was pulled back again.
This time, after his own suggestion, Li Si bluntly said that if Ying Zheng could suddenly wake up like Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, it would be a good idea to extend his life for a thousand years. In terms of the quality of the king, there are really not many who can match Ying Zheng.
Thinking of extending his life for thousands of years, Chu Feng waved his hand, and there was an open scripture in front of him. It was the "General Guide to Taoism". He clicked on the line of the elixir section, turned the page, and an illustration of an elixir appeared, with five words written on one side. A vigorous and powerful character - Qianshou Cao Huan Dan.
It was the elixir that Chu Feng had been researching for a while but had yet to take action.
"Qianshou Cao Huan Dan is the best for extending life. Those who take it can live up to 1,500 years."
"Materials required: thirty Thousand-year-old ginseng, thirty Thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum, thirty Thousand-year-old Polygonum multiflorum, acquired spiritual roots."
"It takes civil and military fire to refine for seventy-seven forty-nine days. On the day the elixir is completed, a vision will occur."
"It's a bit troublesome. It seems that we need to make some more preparations before refining."
After saying that, Chu Feng disappeared.
Three days later, in the early morning, the sun was very bright. The steps from the floating fairy mountain extended to the front of Afang Palace. The endless steps gave people a strong visual impact.
The civil and military officials scattered around expressed heartfelt admiration.
"This thing should only exist in heaven. How many times can you hear it in the human world!"
"The sky protects the empire, and the foundation of the empire will make everything immortal."
……………………
"Officials must not make any noise," Prime Minister Li Si suddenly scolded.
The civil and military officials became quiet.
Not long after, Ying Zheng, dressed in fine clothes and with the Emperor's Sword hanging on his waist, walked out of the main hall with steady steps. Under the gaze of the kneeling officials, he climbed the steps with a serious expression. Just like last time, he was greeted by the crowd as soon as he arrived at the square. Hu Erniang received the Xiantian Spiritual Root Garden.
Seeing Chu Feng, Ying Zheng took out a scroll from his sleeve and handed it over.
“Well written”
After reading the contents of the scroll, Chu Feng nodded with a smile. Although what Ying Zheng said was slightly different from what Li Si said, it was already very rare for him to achieve this step.
"I will follow you down to earth and make a pot of elixir for you that will extend your life for a thousand years."
With that said, Chu Feng took Ying Zheng and rode on the auspicious clouds towards the ground.
The civil and military officials in front of the main hall of Xianyang Palace saw a terrifying purple cloud suddenly falling from the sky, as if it was about to press down, and they subconsciously wanted to dodge.
"You don't need to panic, I have invited the Immortal Chief"
Ying Zheng Leng's proud voice came from the clouds, and all the civil and military officials stopped panicking.
Not long after, the auspicious clouds fell, the lingering purple energy gradually dissipated, and the figures of Ying Zheng and Chu Feng emerged.
"Chief Immortal, please."
Ying Zheng made a gesture of invitation, and his clothes were fluttering in the breeze, looking very impressive.
Chu Feng nodded and walked in.
Ying Zheng's tense expression relaxed, and he raised his legs and followed in.
After entering the main hall, Chu Feng turned to look at Ying Zheng and said with a serious expression: "This hall is too narrow. There could be a bigger palace for poor people to make elixirs."
Ying Zheng glanced around his magnificent main hall subconsciously, feeling an inexplicable bitterness in his heart.
