"Well, you're not sleeping yet?"
Mu Yangjing turned over and asked in a murmur, her voice soft and lazy than usual.
After all, she is a female saint and has good recovery ability.
If it were any other concubine, she might not be able to wake up even if her ears are thundering.
Everyone in Mu could feel that he was not asleep yet.
Zhao Huaizhong decided to show his love for everyone in Mu.
With a flick of his hand, the lamp lit up in the room.
"What are you doing?" Mu Yangjing noticed something was wrong and opened a thin slit in her eyes.
"Yeah." Zhao Huaizhong responded.
It was windy and rainy.
…
The long night.
The stars are twinkling, the same night.
In the palace, King Chu Xiong Han sat silently, his face slightly pale.
He exited his consciousness from the immortal corpse, but his mind was still filled with that figure, and waves of tremors spread in his chest.
He controlled the Immortal Corpse and discovered that when Jinwu was fighting with Zhao Huaizhong, he thought it was an opportunity, so he chose to join the war.
Unexpectedly, the immortal corpse he relied on as his trump card was no match for that person.
Until this moment, Xiong Han's heart was still filled with uncontrollable fear.
It was not because of timidity, but because Zhao Huaizhong was in a state of war at that time, and the energy connecting heaven and earth hurt his soul. It has been imprinted in his consciousness and is difficult to get rid of.
"The king went out with the immortal corpse, what happened?"
After Xiong Han came out of the underground palace, he became frightened and his face was pale, as if he was seriously ill. Li Yuan was a little worried and stayed by his side late at night.
"nothing."
Xiong Han shook his head slightly: "I have been relying on the Immortal Corpse for the past two days and have not paid attention to the situation of the battle with the Qin people. What is the situation now?"
A worried look appeared on Li Yuan's face: "The eastern front is fine, but Wang Jian and Lian Po's troops in the western border have been forced to the vicinity of Dongting, our great Chu state."
"My analysis shows that the Qin people had a clear intention from the beginning. They wanted to invade the western part of Chu and seize the Chu people's territory."
Li Yuan discovered that Xiong Han seemed to be relieved after hearing that the Qin people's intention was the Western Front.
"My uncle thought it was possible...to negotiate peace with the Qin people." Xiong Han asked in a low voice.
Negotiate peace?!
Li Yuan was very surprised. Xiong Han had always had a tough attitude towards Qin since he came to power. Why did he suddenly want to negotiate a peace?
"Qin may not agree to peace talks at this time, and even if he agrees, he will take advantage of it and even publicly ask for compensation from the city..."
"If Qin asks for part of the land in the west, it can be resolved through peace talks." King Chu breathed a sigh of relief.
He was really frightened.
The figure that lingers in the consciousness is like a nightmare.

On the same night, Yan Di stayed up all night.
Prince Dan received a message from Jing Ke using his flying sword:
"The king of Qin, Zhao Huaizhong, is beyond human power. We will discuss the assassination later."
Please rest assured, Prince, I am not giving up, but am preparing to try another method."
Jing Ke decided to assassinate Qin with the determination to die.
But determination does not mean going to death.
Until before setting off, Jing Ke had confidence in his swordsmanship and was sure of his chances of success.
But what happened today made him know that if he wanted to assassinate King Qin on his own, there was no chance of success.
If you really go there, you will die.
So Jing Ke stopped the original plan halfway.
The news sent back to Yandi was obtained by Jing Ke from Jiejiao. It explained in great detail that Zhao Huaizhong went to Yaoxu and killed the Golden Crow Demon Lord with his own power. Yaoxu was also driven into the depths of the void and disappeared.
the process of.
Prince Dan immediately summoned the guests in the palace to discuss the matter in the palace.
"I received news that a little earlier, the King of Qin killed the demon lord in the demon ruins.
This afternoon, the reason that caused the tremors in the China of China was that King Qin was using the power of heaven and earth to kill the demon lord."
"The Demon Lord was killed?!"
"The whole of China is shaking because Zhao Huaizhong, the king of Qin, borrowed the power of heaven and earth?"
The disciples of the Prince's Mansion can easily imagine what kind of power can make the entire land of China shake, and they can use its power for their own purposes.
For a moment, there was silence in the hall.
The news that King Qin killed the demon lord needs some time to digest.
"The Demon Lord was killed and the Demon Ruins sank into the depths of the void. There may be no more pressure on Qin's western front within a few years. I judge that Qin is likely to attack us and other countries with all its strength next.
What do you think, my great Yan, should do?"
There was silence in the palace.
Fan Yuqi sat in the crowd and looked at everyone.

That night, Zhao Huaizhong slept soundly, with the beauty in his arms.
There are still several beauties who have been connected in series from beginning to end, but the whole world is sleepless, including the people of Qi who also have their own news channels. After receiving the news, King Jian of Qi also summoned his ministers overnight to start a discussion.
Early the next morning.
Zhao Huaizhong returned to the palace and returned to Wuying Palace after the court.
In the dormitory, Jiang Ji was asleep and yet to wake up. She was curled up sideways with a thin quilt covering her body, her exquisite curves rising and falling under the quilt, and she was immersed in sleep with soft breathing.
Her face is delicate and pretty, looking like jade, with a delicate look and feel. Her long eyelashes are thick and upturned, and even after she closes her charming and bright eyes, she is still indescribable.
Zhao Huaizhong went over and pinched her small nose.
Jiang Shu woke up from her dream, her eyes were bleary, she raised her hand to slap him, and looked at the sky: "Why did you come back so early today?" Her voice was soft, as she had not yet fully recovered from the situation last night.
"I miss you, come back and have a look. I have to go back to Xianyang Palace in a while. There will be a lot of things going on today."
After all, I ran away and wandered for nearly two days, and I needed to make up for the lost time.
"Get up and eat something." Zhao Huaizhong reached out and patted the most suitable place.
This made Jiang Shu feel coquettish and got up from the couch.
She enjoys getting dressed under Zhao Huaizhong's "service" and feels very pampered.
Due to the war with Chu, the landlords had no surplus food, and the leader of the country had to live frugally.
There will definitely be no Buddha jumping over the wall when eating breakfast.
For two people, there are two dishes in total, plus a bowl of noodles for each person.
But the workmanship is exquisite. One of the dishes is stewed squab. We choose 15-day-old squab, soak it in natural honey, and then stew it in bone broth until it is soft and fall off the bones. The skin feels smooth and the meat is tender. , there is a slight numbing feeling in the aftertaste because of the addition of peppercorns.
The juice is also very rich, the taste is excellent, and the taste is fresh and fragrant.
Then there is a delicious vegetarian dish for each person, and the cooking is particularly delicate.
The main dish was a bowl of mediocre noodle soup, but the soup took five hours to cook.
After breakfast, Zhao Huaizhong returned to the palace.
