Wang Li was beaten so hard that his face was still burning.

The pain in his face was secondary, but the key was the insult in public, which almost drove Wang Li crazy.

He was eager to try and wanted to fight back. But he didn't dare. This was a court meeting. He was neither a reckless man like Li Xin nor a madman like Huai Guzi, so he didn't have the guts to take action in such a situation.

Wang Li could only look at Li Shui resentfully and thought: "A gentleman's revenge is never too late in ten years. Just wait for me."

However, when he looked up again and saw Ying Zheng's unhappy expression, his heart suddenly thumped.

The king is obviously dissatisfied with what he proposed, the second and third generations.

Wang Li felt a little aggrieved, but he had no way to refute Li Shui's words, so he could only bite the bullet and say nothing.

Wang Ben next to him sighed. His son was not disappointing, but...but the enemy was too cunning.

Wang Ben stood up shamelessly, bowed and said: "Three generations of the Wang family have been generals. They are loyal and loyal. Their hearts can illuminate the sun and the moon. Please give me a clear warning. Wang Li has no intention of cursing the king."

"It's just that Wang Li is a martial artist who is illiterate and vulgar. Therefore, he made a mistake and said the wrong thing. I would like to fine Wang Li one year's salary as punishment."

Wang Li's salary for another year was gone.

Li Xin said with a smile beside him: "It turns out that General Wang Li is the uncivilized and vulgar warrior. It is said that a mouse droppings ruins a pot of soup. General Wang Li is standing here, which makes me and other generals feel a little bit confused.

It’s inferior.”

Wang Li's face turned red, he was angry and annoyed, but he couldn't get angry, so he could only admit it bravely.

Otherwise? If you don't admit that you are illiterate, you have to admit that you cursed the king. Isn't this seeking death?

Ying Zheng said calmly: "According to Wang Ben's proposal."

Wang Ben breathed a sigh of relief, the matter was finalized. A slip of the tongue was not considered a serious crime, and a fine was not a punishment. Who among the civil servants and generals did not have thousands of acres of fertile land? These salaries were nothing at all.

Chun Yuyue and other doctors all looked at Li Shui angrily, thinking that this guy was just a troublemaker.

Taking advantage of a little verbal advantage, he made a big fuss.

Immortality? That is a myth. Can the king really live forever?

If Huaiguzi's statement is followed, then there is no need to build the Lishan Mausoleum, and will his disciple Fusu not be able to wait for the day when he ascends the throne?

Chunyu Yue felt a headache.

Suddenly, he felt two eyes looking at him.

Chunyu Yue turned around and saw Li Si. Li Si was smiling half-heartedly, looking at him with a look of gloating on his misfortune.

Li Si believed in Legalism, and he always fought openly and secretly with Confucian scholars like himself in the court.

In the past, Chunyu Yue relied on his wealth of knowledge and eloquence, but he did not fall behind.

But now... first Li Xin caused trouble, then Huaiguzi caused trouble, and Wang Li, Wang Ben and his son joined in the trouble.

Li Si didn't do anything, and Chunyu Yue was in a panic.

Chunyu Yue sighed, feeling that he really couldn't live this life anymore.

As for Li Shui, he didn't care about everyone's reaction at all.

Is everyone's reaction important? It's not important at all. Only Ying Zheng's reaction is important.

I saw Li Shui salute to Ying Zheng and said: "Your Majesty, after thinking about it, I feel that the word "Shi Huang" is not bad. It has the aura of groundbreaking. It also sounds very smooth."

Wang Li couldn't help but said: "Since the king is immortal, then there is only one emperor in the world. Why do you need to add the word 'Shi'? Could it be that you are cursing the king and unable to live forever?"

After hearing these words, Wang Li felt so happy. Use his spear and attack his shield. Let me see what you do.

Who knew that Li Shui turned around and slapped Wang Li again.

Wang Li became furious and shouted: "Huai Guzi, how dare you do this."

He punched and was about to fight, but Li Xin had already jumped to Li Shui's side, eager to fight Wang Li.

Ying Zheng shouted angrily: "Stop it, everyone. We are fighting in front of you. Don't you take me seriously?"

Wang Li and Li Xin both bowed and apologized, and Li Shui said: "Your Majesty, when I heard Wang Li cursing your Majesty, I was so indignant that I couldn't bear it anymore, so I beat Wang Li and asked your Majesty to forgive me."

Everyone was speechless: "Again he was indignant? Wang Li cursed the king again? Why didn't we hear it?"

Li Shui didn't wait for anyone to ask, and said directly: "Wang Li just said that there is only one emperor in the world, and the emperor will rule the world forever. This is clearly cursing the king, and he will not be able to become an immortal."

Wang Li was a little confused: "Did I curse the king again?"

Li Shui gushed: "Immortality is just the first step. After the king achieves immortality, the next step is to become an immortal. At that time, he will ascend to the immortal world and be ruled by immortals. The immortal world is vast and rich, and the human world is nothing like it.

In comparison, it’s just a drop in the ocean.”

"The king has become the lord of the immortal world, will he still manage the mortal world himself? Just like you, Wang Li, have become the general of the Qin Dynasty, will you also serve as the pavilion chief of Surabaya?"

Wang Li was a little speechless: "Who is the Pavilion Chief of Surabaya?"

Li Shui said loudly: "At that time, the king will naturally pass the throne to his descendants, for the second and third generations, and even for eternity. As for the king himself, as the master of the immortal world, he will take care of the earth and enjoy the enjoyment of future generations every day.

Make offerings and bless your descendants with prosperity."

Wang Ben is a little aggrieved. Isn’t this a strong statement? As soon as your upper lip touches your lower lip, the king becomes the lord of the fairy world? Why don’t you just say that the king is the reincarnation of Pangu and that the entire universe was created by the king?

Isn't this flattery too obvious?

Everyone was a little disapproving, but they couldn't refute it.

Wang Li still couldn't swallow this breath and said loudly: "I just said that the king is the first emperor, and the descendants will be the second and third generations, and will be passed down to all generations. You said that I cursed the king. Now you say so yourself, isn't it too much to deceive others?

?”

Li Shui said calmly: "When you say the First Emperor, you are implying that the King is going to die. When I say the First Emperor, it is because I firmly believe that the King is going to become an immortal. How can the two be the same?"

Wang Li gritted his teeth and said no more.

Ying Zheng said calmly: "That's all, this matter ends here. I will be the First Emperor. As for how to name him for future generations, we will discuss it later."

This time Ying Zheng did not punish Wang Li because he also understood that Li Shui was exaggerating.

Immortality is difficult, becoming an immortal is even further away, and becoming the master of the immortal world is even further out of reach.

However, he was very happy that Li Shui could suppress Wang Li, so he forcibly ended the farce to avoid Wang Li from causing trouble to Li Shui.

When Li Shui saw that Ying Zheng had confirmed his title, he immediately fell to the ground and shouted: "Long live my emperor, long live him."

Everyone was speechless. This guy was so thick-skinned as never before. His flattery was astonishing.

Ying Zheng was so stunned by Li Shui's flattery that he even felt a little embarrassed.

He suppressed his smile, deliberately looked nonchalant, and said, "No need to be polite, just get up."

Li Shui stood up with a smile.

At this time, a middle-aged man hurriedly walked in and whispered a few words into Ying Zheng's ear.

The courtiers were all a little uneasy because they all knew that this middle-aged man was Zhao Gao, the current magistrate of CRRC.

Zhao Gao is in charge of the emperor's chariot and seal, and he has a high and powerful position. However, he has not shown up for the court meetings in the past few days. Now he has come here in a hurry, and he doesn't know what happened.

After Ying Zheng listened to Zhao Gao's report, he smiled and nodded to Li Shui.

Then he said: "Huai Guzi, with his magical skills, healed Fu Yao, and his contribution is indispensable. With his sincerity and loyalty, he was given the title of Great Qin. Such loyal ministers and righteous men must be commended."

"Today, I will grant Huaiguzi a mansion, a thousand acres of fertile land, and a gold medal for immunity from death."

Everyone was shocked immediately.

They are used to all kinds of mansions and fertile fields. But what is the gold medal to avoid death? Can it avoid death?

Could it be that Master Zhao Gao has been away these past few days just to prepare for this death-free gold medal?

Immediately afterwards, a young eunuch came in holding a plate.

On the plate was placed a yellow gold medal made of pure gold to avoid death.

Li Shui's mouth was watering. He excitedly took the death-free gold medal and looked over it over and over again.

The words "avoid death" are written on the front of the gold medal, and a passage is engraved on the back.

After Li Shui saw it, he stopped laughing immediately.

This sentence roughly means: Huaiguzi has great merit, so he is given a gold medal to avoid death. Except for conspiracy, deceiving the emperor, slandering the Lord, and other major crimes, he can avoid death.

The beauty of this statement lies in the word "Zhu". Zhu in ancient Chinese is equivalent to "etc." in later generations.

This means that except for serious crimes such as treason and deceiving the emperor, all can be exempted from death. The content of "etc." has not been publicly stated.

One day, if the emperor sees that you are unhappy, he can sell you your left foot before going out, join the ranks of others, and kill you here.

In other words, the final interpretation of this death-free medal rests with the emperor.
