Journey To the West From The Qin Dynasty

Everyone is dumbfounded.

They didn't expect it, they didn't expect Li Jue to be able to take out such a big luminous pearl.

The millstone is so big, it is simply unheard of and unseen.

In fact, it is not an easy task to find such a big luminous pearl in the sea, but the Dragon King of Huaihe owes favors, and it is still very easy for Li Jue to let him find it.

If he finds it, he will use it as his secret weapon. It is perfect to take it out at this time.

Sure enough, it was a blockbuster.

Zhao Gao was dumbfounded, and the officials were dumbfounded.

The dignitaries were all dumbfounded.

Even Yu Ji couldn't believe it, why didn't she know that such a big coral and night pearl were kept at home?

Gai Nie was also stunned, when did Li Jue become so rich and able to get such a valuable thing!

Compared with Li Jue's coral, Zhao Gao's more than two hundred catties of coral stone seems petty!

It is obvious that Zhao Gao's body is very big, which is unprecedented before, but now that he has one hundred times bigger, he looks petty.

What's more, Li Jue also took out the Ye Mingzhu.

This thing is as dazzling as a bright moon, if it is at night, it will definitely be brighter.

Ying Zheng also said excitedly, "Li Aiqing, are these coral stones and night pearls really for me?"

Li Jue said: "Your Majesty, besides Your Majesty, who else can possess such natural and earthly treasures?"

Ying Zheng laughed loudly and said, "That's good, that's good, that's good, it's really rare that you can meet all these treasures."

Li Jue said: "Actually, it's not too difficult. It's just that I have been sending people to the East China Sea to look for it these days, and I even sneaked into it to salvage it myself. It's only through my hard work that I got such a treasure."

"I think it was Your Majesty who was blessed with blessings and blessings, and was able to get them. It is not right to say that I got them, but they should belong to His Majesty, and they are just dedicated to His Majesty through the hands of my ministers!"

Zhao Gao was dumbfounded.

The officials were dumbfounded.

I have never seen such a brazen person, it is a flatterer.

They all thought that their flattery was shameless enough, but compared to Li Jue, they were nothing short of pure.

but.

It seems unreasonable to accuse Li Jue of being a sycophant, because do you dare to say that what he said is wrong?

Well, go to the guillotine!

Sure enough, Ying Zheng liked it very much. After laughing, he asked people to accept it, and asked them to send the coral stone and night pearl back to Xianyang.

As for Zhao Gao's coral stone, Ying Zheng smiled and had someone smash it into pieces, divide it into hundreds of shares, and distribute it to the officials.

Even Zhao Gao got a small piece, and Li Jue was no exception.

Zhao Gao was dumbfounded.

He spent more than 200 catties and spent 15,000 taels of coral stone, which turned into a small coral, and was distributed to the officials by Ying Zheng.

The most important thing is that Ying Zheng didn't reward him, as if the coral he offered was justified.

Official reinstatement?

impossible.

Ying Zheng just let Zhao Gao sit down and rewarded him with a pot of wine.

As for Li Jue, he was also seated, not in the middle seat, but in the front seat.

Fusu came out to assist at this time, and said: "Father, Dashangzao Li Jue presented Ruibao to prove the blessing of Daqin. This is a great achievement, and I believe that Dashangzao should be rewarded."

Ying Zheng nodded and said, "That makes sense. I have always been rewarded for my achievements and punished for my mistakes."

"The great master made Li Jue, you have made great contributions in offering the Ruibao, and I will bestow on you an eighteenth-level military meritorious commander, the same rank as a great general."

Great Master! ?

Li Jue smiled, and it seems that it is not bad to go up two levels.

Anyway, Yingzheng didn't give him a specific official position, so he didn't have to leave Ting Wei, and he still had the Longquan sword in his hand, so he could kill whoever should be beheaded.

Moreover, the level of military merit has increased, and the status has also increased. Many things can be done, and it is logical to be able to do them.

The most important thing is to be able to anger Zhao Gao and let him show his feet.

as expected.

Zhao Gao waited eagerly for the reward from Ying Zheng, but after Ying Zheng rewarded Li Jue, he praised everyone else verbally.

There is no substantive reward, the most is wine and meat, nothing more.

Zhao Gao was furious.

He secretly gritted his teeth, "Damn it, I was calculated, damn Li Jue, actually bought me a coral stone at a high price, and then took a bigger one to present to the emperor!"

"He must have planned it long ago, just waiting for me to take the trap. Damn it, it's not a man who doesn't take revenge!"

Zhao Gao's eyes were full of hatred, he wished he could eat Li Jue immediately.

Looking at Li Jue who was sitting opposite, he already felt a deep threat, thinking that Li Jue's status was no longer inferior to him.

The military merits have already reached the rank of the chief, if they are sent to the barracks, they can directly receive 30,000 soldiers and horses!

What's more, Li Jue still has the Longquan sword in his hand, which represents power.

With honor and power in hand.

Li Jue had to get rid of him, otherwise, sooner or later, he would be on his head!

Zhao Gao felt a deep threat and tremendous pressure. He scanned the crowd, as if planning to find a suitable ally.

Whether it is the local dignitaries, the court ministers, or the monk from Tianzhu, they can all be used.

Taking advantage of the opportunity of toasting, Zhao Gao went to the local dignitaries, chatted with them, and found Bodhidharma at the same time.

"Master Bodhidharma, I heard that you plan to open a temple in Xianyang, I may be able to help you." Zhao Gao smiled.

Bodhidharma was overjoyed immediately, he knew Zhao Gao's identity very well, he was a big celebrity beside the emperor.

The civil and military ministers would give him some face, even the emperor would listen to him on weekdays.

If this person is willing to help him, then the establishment of a temple in Xianyang will be secure.

Bodhidharma immediately cupped his hands and said, "The Fragrance Master is indeed a benevolent man, Amitabha, thank you, the Fragrance Master!"

But Zhao Gao said: "I know your strength is extraordinary, I am afraid that you are already in the realm of refining gods and transforming emptiness?"

Bodhidharma clasped his hands together and said, "The poor monk doesn't know what the cultivation level the benefactor said is, but the poor monk is only half a step away from the immortal!"

hiss.

Half Immortal! ?

Zhao Gao's eyes lit up. If so, then Bodhidharma's value would be more than just killing Li Jue.

Dharma said: "Master Zhao, please recommend this poor monk, who will personally apply to His Majesty the Emperor for the establishment of a temple."

But Zhao Gao said: "No, His Majesty doesn't like you bald heads the most, he thinks it's unlucky, and he can't accept your proposal for a while."

Dharma was immediately embarrassed.

He also knew that it would be too difficult for the people of the East to accept his Dharma!

but.

You have to give it a try, otherwise, wouldn't it be a waste of effort and a waste of time?

Bodhidharma said sincerely: "Then, what should the poor monk do?"

Zhao Gaodao: "You've heard that all the dignitaries in my Daqin would recruit diners, right? You come to my Zhao Mansion as a diner, and I'll build a temple for you, preaching, receiving karma and solving doubts!"

In fact, Bodhidharma already knew Daqin's situation very well, otherwise he wouldn't have come here, and he could have a good chat with everyone without committing a big taboo.

Therefore, he understood what Zhao Gao said.

Wouldn't it be inferior to just let him be a diner?

Dharma hesitated.

Zhao Gao persuaded: "I read the volume of Buddhist lecture notes you gave me just now, and it also said that your Buddhism should focus on cultivation and that all living beings are equal."

"This official thinks it makes sense. It's a practice for you to be a diner in this official's mansion. And you, this official, and other people are all equal, and this official will treat you as one of your own!"

Bodhidharma was moved, but also a little surprised.

He didn't expect that someone would read the volume of Dharma that he sent out, and it was Zhao Gao, a high-ranking official of Daqin.

It's just a pity that this Zhao Gao is an eunuch, but it doesn't matter, there are people like this in Buddhism, and they have achieved positive results.

Bodhidharma said: "Since Mr. Zhao invites you, the poor monk can only agree."

Zhao Gao was overjoyed immediately, and his heart was extremely excited.

Unexpectedly, a great master was invited, no matter whether Bodhidharma is a half-immortal or not, at least his strength must have reached the realm of refining the gods and transforming the virtual.

Such a master would definitely be able to put Li Jue to death.

soon.

When the ministers offered treasures, it was the turn of the local nobles and celebrities to start offering treasures. Most of the things they brought were local specialties.

However, many of them are worthless things, but they are relatively rare, at least in the north, but in Jiangdong, they are very common.

These nobles took out these things just to bully people, and at the same time to cry for poverty.

Ying Zheng's face was a little unnatural, and he kept a straight face, listening to the eunuchs read the things offered by these nobles.

After everyone had offered, Ying Zheng felt that something was missing.

He didn't care what other people gave, he only cared if all the local nobles came and gave something.

He said: "I heard that the largest nobleman in Kuaiji County is the Xiang family. Why don't you see the Xiang family offering treasures today?"

As soon as this remark came out, the audience fell silent.

On the other hand, Li Jue had a calm smile on his lips. He knew that Ying Zheng wanted to make excuses.

It was exactly what he wanted to see, and that was the best.

The nobles all looked at each other in blank dismay. They all thought that this matter could be fooled, but they did not expect to let the emperor know.

The Xiang family really didn't come!

However.

Just when Yingzheng was about to speak again, an eunuch came to report that the Xiang family had come to present treasures!

It came just in time.

Many people were sweating, and the local nobles were even more falsely alarmed. Fortunately, the Xiang family did not insist on coming, otherwise they would be implicated.

but.

All the civil and military officials were stern, and their faces were not good-looking.

The emperor has already accepted the treasure offerings from a large number of people, and the members of the Xiang clan came here, with airs bigger than the emperor! ?

Sure enough, Ying Zheng was furious, and scolded: "The Xiang family is so arrogant, do you want me to wait for them here?"

"Hand down the order, and the members of the Xiang clan will crawl in. If there is any disobedience, they will be executed!"

hiss!

All the ministers were shocked.

Zhao Gao hesitated to speak, he had actually contacted the local nobles a long time ago, and the Xiang family was his number one target.

Before that, he had already told the members of the Xiang clan that they must arrive early, keep a low profile and do not cause trouble.

But the members of the Xiang clan didn't listen, and they were the last to come when the emperor mentioned it.

No matter who Ying Zheng is, he destroyed Chu State early, and Xiang Yan, the general of Chu State, was even beheaded.

The king of Chu is a chicken and a dog in front of Yingzheng, not to mention the Xiang family, the descendants of Xiang Yan from the former Chu state!

He dared not to take Ying Zheng seriously, so he didn't come for a long time.

Naturally, Ying Zheng would not give them any face and let them crawl in. If they refused, he would kill them directly! !

None of the civil and military ministers dared to persuade, they all knew Ying Zheng's temper.

The nobles and celebrities were trembling. Although they felt humiliated, they were even more timid.

And at this time.

There was a group of people outside the door, crawling in like dead dogs.
