In Xianyang Palace, the First Emperor Ying Zheng was reviewing the memorial in the main hall.

At this time, the memorials had changed from bulky bamboo slips to light paper products, which were much more convenient for writing and reviewing.

At this moment, a waiter came from outside the door and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, Lord Moon God wants to see you!"

Hearing this, Ying Zheng's attention was still on the memorial, and he just faintly uttered one word: "Xuan."

"promise!"

After responding, the waiter bowed and retreated.

After a while, a beautiful woman wearing a light blue robe and translucent gauze walked in slowly. She was the Moon Goddess of the Yin Yang family.

"I have met His Majesty!"

The Moon God bowed slightly and saluted, then raised his head and asked, "I wonder why the king summoned you?"

Ying Zheng put down the memorial in his hand and said, "In recent days, I have been feeling uneasy. I asked the Moon God to come here today because I want you to make a divination for this."

Hearing this, the Moon God did not refuse. After responding, he knelt down on the ground and gently closed his eyes, slowly forming seals with his two white palms.

Immediately afterwards, a mysterious fluctuation spread.

As the mysterious handprints continue to change, a strange rhythm slowly emerges and stirs, and his whole aura seems to become ethereal.

At the same time, looming light cyan runes flickered around him, which was quite strange.

After a while, he slowly opened his eyes, his breath was restrained, he stood up, bowed his head slightly and said, "I have lived up to the king's trust, and I have gained something."

Ying Zheng nodded slightly and said, "Please speak."

Moon God said calmly: "According to the hexagrams, the fate of the country of Qin will probably be in disaster."

When Ying Zheng heard this, he couldn't help but frowned: "What kind of disaster is it?"

After hearing the question, Moon God shook his head slightly and said: "This matter is difficult to predict. The only thing that can be speculated is that this disaster may start within the palace wall."

"Within the palace walls..."

Ying Zheng frowned slightly and thought deeply. There were only concubines, attendants, guards, sons, princesses, and many members of the clan within the palace walls. Where could the problem lie?

Seeing that he was in a state of death, the Moon God said no more, bowed slightly and then left the hall.

It wasn't until a moment later that Ying Zheng came back to his senses and called out: "Zhao Gao."

After the words fell, no one responded. At this moment, a waiter hurriedly stepped forward and replied: "Your Majesty, your Majesty, Zhongche Mansion, was ill a few days ago."

Hearing this, Ying Zheng's expression changed. Zhao Gao has been on call all these years and has never had any accidents. He didn't expect that he would take sick leave this time.

But he didn't pay too much attention to it. After thinking about it for a while, he said, "Then let's pass it on to Zhang Han."

"promise."

The waiter responded and then went down to deliver the order.

At the same time, in a secret room in Xianyang City, screams were heard one after another.

I saw a figure with disheveled hair and pale face that could not help but tremble. The patches of burnt black color on his body were terrifying, and he looked as scary as a ghost.

And at its feet lay dozens of corpses, all of which were young and beautiful girls.

It's just that at this time, all these women have lost their breath, and their flesh and blood are dry and sunken, as if all the energy in their bodies has been sucked dry.

After a while, the man gradually regained his composure. He straightened his appearance indifferently, but his cheeks were actually covered with burn marks.

Feeling the severe pain, the killing intent in his eyes was extremely strong.

"Ye Zhan!"

Zhao Gao roared like a wild beast, full of hatred. Although he escaped with his life in that battle, he was severely injured by Karma Fire and could only rely on absorbing the essence of the girl to heal his wounds.

But even so, it is still difficult to recover. The flames from hell can be said to naturally restrain his evil skills.

As a cruel and ruthless careerist, he will naturally not let the other party go easily, but now he still has to hold back for the time being and plan carefully.

Wait until the right time to strike again, and kill with one blow...

Half a month later, all the land in Zhao State was controlled by the Qin army, and Qin State's power was greatly strengthened.

As the first contributor to this battle, Wang Jian was naturally treated with great affection, and a celebration party was even held for him to reward many generals.

After drinking for three rounds, Ying Zheng said: "Now Zhao and Wei have become part of the Qin Dynasty. As for the Yan State, it is also in the pocket of a few people, and it is easy to get it.

Apart from this, only the two kingdoms of Qi and Chu are left. Among them, Chu is the most difficult to deal with, and its strength is not far behind that of Zhao.

But if we can capture Chu, we will not be far from unifying the Qin Dynasty."

After hearing this, Lord Changping, who was the most senior among the civil servants, changed his expression slightly, but he did not raise any objection. He just sat quietly and thought rapidly.

At this time, Ying Zheng continued: "I have made a decision to send troops to attack Chu in one year. What do you think?"

Upon hearing the question, all the ministers at the table looked at each other, and then Wang Jian raised his hands and replied: "Your Majesty, the State of Chu has a territory of thousands of miles, with vast land and numerous passes.

If he is determined to persevere, I am afraid it will be difficult to achieve success in a short period of time."

When Ying Zheng heard this, he waved his hands and said: "Although the Chu country is large and the Chu people are powerful, I believe that our Qin army officers and soldiers are more brave and can look down upon them.

As the saying goes, if we can make great efforts at one go, then weaken again, then we will be exhausted. Now our army has annexed Wei and Zhao two countries one after another, and its power is at its peak. If we can go all out to conquer the country, the unification of the world will be close at hand."

As he spoke, he saw a confident smile on his face. The successive big victories made him feel a little elated. In his eyes, the six countries in Shandong seemed to be just chickens and dogs, and they would collapse at the first glance.

Then Ying Zheng's eyes were on Wang Jian again and he said: "How about I use the Qing family as my commander to prepare for the attack on Chu?'

When he heard the question, Wang Jian's expression changed. Although in his opinion, this was not the best time to destroy Chu, he still did not hesitate. He knelt down on one knee and responded respectfully: "I am willing to be driven by your Majesty.

Open up territory and expand the territory, and achieve unparalleled achievements!"

"Haha, good! Ai Qing is worthy of being our number one general in Great Qin!"

Ying Zheng was in a very good mood at this time.

After praising him, he then asked: "You once easily defeated the State of Zhao with an army of 300,000 people. I wonder how many troops and horses are needed to attack the State of Chu this time?"

Wang Jian thought for a moment after hearing this, and then replied: "Your Majesty, Chu is a powerful country, and the territory under its jurisdiction is far greater than that of Zhao. If we want to win steadily, we need an army of 600,000!"

After the words fell, Ying Zheng couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "Six hundred thousand?"
