How to Cultivate a Ten-Thousand-Mile Empire for the Young Emperor Qin?

Chapter 257: Abalone in the coffin

Views:

Ying Xiaozheng rarely gave himself a day off, so he naturally moved back to his original manor.

The servants would not enter the yard, and only Zhu Xiang and Ying Xiaozheng, uncle and nephew, were in the room.

Ying Xiaozheng was lying on the couch with a big, soft cotton pillow on his chest and a book in front of the pillow.

Zhu Xiang sat on a chair next to the couch with a pillow at his waist.

There was a small stove in front of him, and on top of it was a copper wire mesh that was slightly larger than the stove mouth.

A kettle was placed in the middle of the red-hot copper wire mesh, and oranges tributed from Southern Qin were placed around the kettle.

The scent of roasted oranges filled the house.

Zhu Xiang picked up an orange, peeled off the orange segments and handed them to Ying Xiaozheng's mouth, who opened his mouth to take them.

"Do you want to listen?" Zhu Xiang said with a smile.

Ying Xiaozheng swallowed the orange segments and said unhappily, "Uncle, you must be joking."

Zhu Xiang asked, "Are you listening?"

Ying Xiaozheng gritted his teeth: "Listen!"

Zhu Xiang handed over another orange slice.

Ying Xiaozheng chewed the soft and warm orange vigorously, gnashing his teeth.

Zhu Xiang laughed and said, "You should have heard of a legend that after death, people can be reincarnated as humans, and the reincarnated person may remember his previous life, which may not necessarily be a person from this world."

Ying Xiaozheng said in a muffled voice: "It may not be the past of this world."

Zhu Xiang nodded and handed over another orange.

Ying Xiaozheng stopped eating and pointed at the walnut next to him.

Zhu Xiang stuffed the orange into his mouth, picked up the pliers and picked up a walnut for Ying Xiaozheng.

"My previous life was very special. It came from more than 2,000 years later." Zhu Xiang said, "In my world, Qin Shihuang's uncle probably died a long time ago."

Ying Xiaozheng felt a pain in his heart, propped himself up and sat up, then turned to face Zhu Xiang: "Uncle..."

Zhu Xiang handed Ying Xiaozheng the peeled walnut kernels.

Ying Xiaozheng took the walnut kernel but did not put it into his mouth.

Zhu Xiang asked, "Don't you want to eat?"

Ying Xiaozheng said in a muffled voice: "What else are you eating? Uncle, you..."

Zhu Xiang asked, "Shall I continue telling the story?"

Ying Xiaozheng squeezed the walnut kernel tightly, almost crushing it: "Hmm."

Zhu Xiang said: "There are few historical records from two thousand years ago, and people in later generations don't know much about the pre-Qin period."

Ying Xiaozheng repeated in a deep voice: "Pre-Qin era..."

Zhu Xiang said: "After all, Qin Shihuang burned books and buried scholars, and the only copy of the pre-Qin classics was left in the Xianyang Palace. Then Qin Ershi died, and the Xianyang Palace was burned down by Xiang Yu."

Ying Xiaozheng's eyebrows twitched fiercely: "Burning books and burying scholars? I didn't... Oh, it turns out that I did it after all."

Zhu Xiang did not study Ying Xiaozheng's words in detail, and said: "However, some more important things have been passed down, such as the King of Qin circling the pillar and the King carrying the sword..."

"Uncle!" Ying Xiaozheng's eyes widened and he jumped off the couch, "Who remembered?!"

I am so angry! Didn't all the books of the Qin Dynasty get burned? Why didn't this one get burned? Who dared to spread this outside the palace

Zhu Xiang laughed: "You have to fight one against three this time, is it because you remember the grudge of 'The King Around the Pillar, The King Carrying the Sword'?"

Ying Xiaozheng's face twitched, then he sat down on the couch with his feet dangling, spread his palms, and ate the crushed walnut kernels in his palms in silence.

Crunch, crunch.

He regretted it. If he had listened to Uncle Cai, he should have asked the guards to catch the assassin. He shouldn't have done it himself, as if he cared about this matter.

After eating the walnuts, Ying Xiaozheng said, "Didn't my uncle want to talk about the death of Qin II? Why did he talk about something else?"

Zhu Xiang said: "I want you to relax and get ready."

Ying Xiaozheng clapped his hands and pretended to be carefree: "I am ready and will not demote Fusu to a commoner."

Zhu Xiang shook his head: "It was not Fusu who succeeded to the throne, but Hu Hai."

Ying Xiaozheng stood up from the bed again and said in disbelief: "How is it possible?!"

Zhu Xiang asked, "Who told you to not be crowned the crown prince when you were almost fifty, and to die on the way to the southern tour?"

Ying Xiaozheng closed his eyes and took several deep breaths, his chest rising and falling.

After a while, he opened his red eyes and said in a hoarse voice, "Forged edict."

Zhu Xiang looked up and saw the deep sadness and pain on Ying Xiaozheng's face.

He guessed that Ying Zheng probably really doted on his youngest son Hu Hai.

Before Zhu Xiang said anything next, Ying Xiaozheng could guess something from the title of Zhu Xiang's "story".

He seemed to be seeking confirmation from Zhu Xiang, but also seemed to be talking to himself.

"Zhao Gao is one of my most trusted confidants and close ministers. I often bring Zhao Gao with me on my tours to the east and south. My uncle hates Zhao Gao so much, maybe Zhao Gao is the mastermind."

"Hu Hai is young, and he forged the imperial edict to take the throne. He will definitely kill Fusu. He will destroy his entire family... He will destroy his entire family... Did other princes oppose him, and he fought with other princes, leading to the invasion of Xianyang by Xiang Yu? Xiang Yu must be the descendant of Xiang Yan of Chu. Was it the old nobles of Chu who destroyed Qin?"

"Calling a deer a horse, is it Zhao Gao abusing his power in the court?"

When the "blackened" Zhu Xiang saw Ying Xiaozheng's pain, his irritability disappeared and pity filled his heart.

He sighed and said, "I guessed most of it right. But the Prince of Qin did not oppose Hu Hai, and the majesty of the Emperor of Qin has been consolidated by you. Hu Hai ordered Fusu to be executed in your name, and then killed more than 30 of your children. I can't remember the details, I'm not a history student. It is said that your children all died tragically, some were dismembered, and some were crushed to death. Those who were forced to commit suicide were lucky."

Ying Xiaozheng opened his eyes wide, his eyes empty.

After a while, he blinked and asked, "Why is it so?"

When the youngest son forged an imperial edict to take the throne, he had already guessed that Hu Hai would definitely kill many of his brothers.

But why did Hu Hai kill his sisters who posed no threat? Why did he insult his brothers and sisters in such a cruel way

This can no longer be explained by political struggles, nor can it be shirked by Zhao Gao abusing his power.

When Hu Hai issued this decree, he was actually enjoying watching his brothers and sisters die tragically.

Zhu Xiang said: "This is destroying the whole family."

Ying Xiaozheng sat dejectedly on the edge of the bed and spoke with difficulty: "This is destroying the whole family, so what about destroying the Great Wall?"

Zhu Xiang said: "Less than a year after your death, Chen Sheng and Wu Guang started the uprising..."

Ying Xiaozheng interrupted: "Uprising?!"

Zhu Xiang said calmly, "Yes, it is an uprising. When people are living in poverty, they rise up in rebellion. Most dynasties in later generations perished in uprisings by the common people."

Ying Xiaozheng moved his lips a few times and said, "Uncle, please continue."

Zhu Xiang said, "When Qin Shi Huang was alive, Zhao Gao committed a crime punishable by death. Meng Yi was the presiding judge at the time, and he handled the case impartially. But you favored Zhao Gao and pardoned him."

Ying Xiaozheng took a deep breath, clenched his hands, and closed his eyes.

Zhu Xiang said: "When you burned books and buried scholars, Fusu tried to persuade you, but you rebuked him and sent him to Meng Tian to supervise the construction of the Great Wall. So some people in later generations said that Fusu was exiled far away at that time and had lost his right of succession, and you originally wanted Hu Hai to succeed you..."

Ying Zheng opened his eyes.

He said angrily: "The Great Wall is very close to Xianyang, and there is a highway connecting it. It only takes a few days to get back to Xianyang. Why should we exile him far away?! I sent Fusu to Meng Tian to let him see that the six countries have not submitted to Qin at all. He must be severely punished! Moreover, he has always been brave. If he can lead the troops to fight under Meng Tian's protection and make military achievements, it will also be good for him!"

"I am indeed dissatisfied with Fusu. Fusu's mother Qi betrayed me, and Fusu was too naive... Benevolence, benevolence, don't I know that I should rest and recuperate? I have tolerated the six kingdoms for so long, even withholding the military merits of the Qin soldiers, and I cannot bear to take away the land of the six kingdoms. I have also given the students of the Eastern Hundred Schools the power to supervise the government."

"How did they repay me?!"

"If you can only speak the right words, you can't govern the country well. If Fusu believes that benevolent governance can solve the chaos of the six countries, then go to the Great Wall and see if those prisoners will obey him because of his kindness!"

Ying Zheng's chest heaved violently, and anger surged in his heart.

"Hu Hai... Hu Hai is the son of a concubine of the Hu people. The six kingdoms had just been destroyed, and the King of Qin had to be born from a noblewoman of the six kingdoms in order to divide and disintegrate the old nobles of the six kingdoms. It was impossible for him to inherit the throne since he was born."

"That's why I pity him and love him."

"Although I ordered Zhao Gao to teach him, I have no requirements for his academic performance. I only hope that no matter which of his brothers succeeds to the throne, he can live a safe and prosperous life."

"He also repays me and treats me like an ordinary father. I am only a father to Hu Hai, not an emperor; Hu Hai is only a son to me, not a prince of Qin. I think there is no power or throne between me and Hu Hai, so we are closer than other children..."

Ying Zheng raised one hand to cover his eyebrows.

"I have never taught him how to be a ruler or an emperor, nor have I given him any power in the court. He knows nothing and can do nothing..."

Zhu Xiang said coldly: "You don't know anything? You can't do anything? It wasn't just Zhao Gao's idea that he killed his brothers and sisters. Zhao Gao couldn't cover the sky with one hand at that time. Are you sure that he didn't know anything and couldn't do anything to dismember and crush innocent brothers and sisters?"

Ying Zheng's sad voice paused.

Zhu Xiang said: "If we can say that the previous cruel acts were done in order to secure his throne, then we can also say that the killing of Meng Tian and Meng Yi was because they were closer to Fusu. After the Chen Sheng and Wu Guang uprising, Qin II not only did not actively suppress the rebellion, but also indulged himself in pleasure, killed ministers, and refused to support the frontline rebels. Can we blame him for not knowing anything?"

Ying Zheng was speechless.

Zhu Xiang said: "Just assume that he doesn't understand. But the emperor's stupidity is his biggest crime!"

Zhu Xiang couldn't help but get angry because of Ying Zheng's rebuttal.

Ying Zheng really doted on Hu Hai. Even though he trusted the "future" he talked about, he couldn't help but defend Hu Hai.

But he was helpless against this anger.

Ying Zheng is not only Qin Shi Huang, but also a father.

He was dissatisfied with Fusu, his original chosen heir, so all the princes of Qin were his candidates for crown prince.

As he said, he strictly disciplined the other princes of Qin and allowed them to develop their own power.

Only Hu Hai's birth was too low, which did not meet the requirements of the subsequent political marriage of the King of Qin, so he always treated Hu Hai as his son and doted on him.

The father-son love mixed with power is different from the pure father-son love, at least Ying Zheng thought it was different.

Therefore, when he discovered that his son's true nature was not what he saw, and that his son had done something terrible and even ruined the ancestral foundation, it was difficult for Ying Zheng to immediately blame Hu Hai.

Whenever emperors of all dynasties encountered their sons plotting treason, they would first blame others for leading their sons astray.

Humans are not plants or trees, so who can be heartless? Even Hu Hai is worse than an animal.

"Li Si also betrayed you." Zhu Xiang did not hide the truth. "The important ministers you entrusted your son to were Zhao Gao and Li Si. Fusu did not like Li Si, and Zhao Gao persuaded Li Si to work with him to forge an imperial edict for Hu Hai to succeed him."

"They concealed your death and traveled day and night back to Xianyang. Your body had already stank, so they filled your carriage with salted fish..." Zhu Xiang said, "There is an allusion in later generations, 'Ying Zheng's coffin was filled with abalone'."

Abalone at this time means stinky salted fish.

The sadness on Ying Zheng's face disappeared.

Ying Xiaozheng blinked, his expression dull, and he couldn't believe it: "Huh?! What abalone?"

Zhu Xiang said: "Ying Zheng, Zi Coffin, Fei Abalone!"

Ying Xiaozheng: "… I will order Li Si to be torn into pieces right now!"

Damn Li Si!!!!

Zhu Xiang shrugged, "When Qin II was committing evil, Li Si fulfilled his duties as prime minister. He did not join Qin II and Zhao Gao in corruption, and constantly advised Qin II. So he was exterminated by Qin II and Zhao Gao, and suffered cruel punishment and torture before his death."

Ying Xiaozheng gnashed his teeth and said, "He got it for free!"

Ying Xiaozheng: “…”

He pulled his legs back together, sat back on the bed, and remained silent.

Zhu Xiang said: "I didn't want to tell you these things. This life is completely different from my previous life. But you, have you been living too smoothly and become a little proud?"

Ying Xiaozheng glared at Zhu Xiang.

Zhu Xiang said: "If the emperor is not cautious and treading on thin ice when in charge of an entire empire, wars will break out. Although there is no Chen Sheng and Wu Guang shouting out the slogan 'Are kings, dukes, generals and ministers of different races?', there were already Dao Zhi and Zhuang Qiao before. When Qin encountered famine or excessive corvée, there were also many civil unrests."

Ying Xiaozheng said in a muffled voice: "Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it. You and Xun Weng have both taught me this."

Zhu Xiang said: "Yes. We also taught you not to take risks."

Ying Xiaozheng was helpless: "Uncle, I was wrong. I won't take risks again."

Zhu Xiang said, "Xunzi and I taught you that you should not appoint talented people based on your own likes and dislikes. Zhao Gao should have been dead. If you didn't want to punish him, why did you let Meng Yi try him? Trying him but not punishing him, do you think he would be moved? No, this will weaken the majesty of the Qin Emperor and the Qin laws, and make him fear power instead of you. Even if you punish him first and then find a chance to pardon him for meritorious service, you won't make him so courageous!"

Ying Xiaozheng covered his ears: "What does it have to do with me? I didn't do these things."

Zhu Xiang was helpless. Here it comes, Ying Xiaozheng's special skill of shifting the blame is here again.

All the good things that Great Ying Zheng did were done by me, Ying Xiao Zheng, and the glory also belongs to me, Ying Xiao Zheng; the things that Great Ying Zheng did not do well have nothing to do with me, Ying Xiao Zheng, so why are you complaining about this, uncle

Ying Xiaozheng added: "Besides, he is very courageous now. I didn't raise him. Have you ever seen an ordinary eunuch who dares to frame the prime minister and the chancellor for rebellion? I am still alive!"

Zhu Xiang looked strange: "He is indeed too bold. Maybe because Lin Li and Cai Ze get along with you differently from other monarchs and ministers, he misunderstood."

Zhao Gao was born as a palace slave, and he was exposed to the strict hierarchy from childhood to adulthood. It was really difficult for him to understand that there could be family affection besides the relationship between the monarch and his subjects.

He was truly convinced that the chancellor and the chancellor had no respect for the emperor, and that the emperor was extremely disgusted and angry with them.

Ying Xiaozheng reached out for the orange.

Zhu Xiang put down the walnut kernels he had picked up and peeled an orange for Ying Xiaozheng: "What do you think after listening to this?"

Ying Xiaozheng said: "It's all my father's fault. If he hadn't passed away so early, he would have taught me for a dozen more years and waited for me to succeed the throne when I came of age. Why would I have to figure it out on my own?"

Zhu Xiang: “… That makes sense.” He stuffed the orange into Ying Xiaozheng’s mouth, almost choking him.

"Don't be proud of your extraordinary talent, and don't be complacent because you have the memory of another powerful emperor." Zhu Xiang said, "Every step you take now must be carefully considered and taken with caution."

"Yeah." Ying Xiaozheng pretended to be calm on the surface, but in fact he was not at all calm.

But he was very proud and didn't want to show his fatigue in front of his uncle.

He was betrayed by his beloved youngest son and trusted ministers, his children died tragically, and his country was destroyed. How could he accept this immediately

But in order to persuade himself, his uncle revealed such horrifying secrets to him without hiding anything from him, which relieved Ying Xiaozheng's inner pain.

Even if he was short-sighted and misjudged or trusted the wrong person, he could definitely trust his uncle and aunt.

He ate a roasted orange and finally felt better.

"Uncle, will future generations have a very low opinion of me?" Ying Xiaozheng said in a muffled voice, "The second generation died..."

Zhu Xiang said: "The emperors of all dynasties regarded you and Emperor Wu of Han as negative lessons... Oh, after the Qin Dynasty came the Han Dynasty, which inherited the Qin system and crossed the river by feeling the stones of the Qin Dynasty, so Emperor Gaozu of Han was also jokingly called the real Qin II."

Ying Xiaozheng: "... OK, this Qin II is better than Hu Hai, I will adopt him as my adopted son."

Zhu Xiang laughed, and the depression in his heart finally dissipated.

"Emperors of all dynasties have treated the Qin Emperor and the Han Emperor as tyrants who were eager for glory. However, when there were no emperors in later generations, you, the emperor, were the most popular and were called the greatest emperor of all time." Zhu Xiang said, "Without you unifying China, standardizing the writing system, the wheels, and the weights and measures, China would have been broken into countless pieces. China is the only ancient civilization that has survived in this world, and you should be the first to take credit."

Ying Xiaozheng: “…”

He wiped his nose and said, "The greatest emperor of all time, not bad."

After a long silence, he said, "No wonder my uncle always seems out of tune with the world. Was there no emperor in his previous life?"

Zhu Xiang nodded.

Ying Xiaozheng asked: "What did the emperor become?"

Zhu Xiang said: "In my time, although there was inequality between people in fact, they were equal in law and personality. The head of state was not inherited by blood, but was just a top official like a temporary official. You should be the prime minister. Even if you are the head of state, you can't say to the poorest civilian, "Kneel down."

Ying Xiaozheng: "..." No wonder my uncle's life was so twisted. In that era, wasn't everyone a saint

Ying Xiaozheng asked again: "Am I very popular in the future?"

Zhu Xiang thought for a moment and said, "Yes. But your popularity... you probably won't like it too much. Most people don't worship you as an emperor, but as a... uh, fictional character. They like the you they imagine, not the real you."

Ying Xiaozheng asked: "What's the difference?"

Zhu Xiang joked, "Let me give you an analogy. If you traveled back to my time and confirmed your identity, perhaps many people would scream and say they love you and are willing to offer you money. But if you said, I am Qin Shi Huang, and I want to rebuild the Qin Dynasty and ascend the throne again..."

He slowed down and said quietly, "They will only say that whoever dares to restore the monarchy will be walked over by his dead body."

"If the emperors of Qin, Han, Tang, and Song dynasties were all resurrected, it would be the same!"

Ying Xiaozheng was stunned for a moment, then he clapped his hands and laughed: "Commoners are actually like this? Interesting, interesting! People in that era were really interesting!"

The common people of that era were actually like this? Ying Xiaozheng laughed so hard that he couldn't straighten his back.

Anyway, the Qin Dynasty perished in the second generation, and the kings who destroyed the country in later generations were not Qin.

When hearing that China continued and that the Chinese people of later generations were so strong, Ying Xiaozheng was not angry at all, he actually felt a little proud.

This is probably the mentality of our ancestors, hahahaha.

"Uncle, is China powerful in the future?" Ying Xiaozheng's eyes sparkled, "Have they brought shame to me, the ancestor of the greatest emperor in history?"

Zhu Xiang said: "It's not number one now, but I like my country very much. If you want to hear it, I will tell you slowly in the future."

Zhu Xiang peeled the last orange, gave half to Ying Xiaozheng and put the other half into his own mouth.

"There are many stories from these two thousand years. If you want to hear them, your uncle can tell you for many years."

"good!"

Ying Xiaozheng stretched lazily: "As for Zhao Gao, I want him to be a palace slave again and observe him for a while. I want to see why I was deceived by him. After that, I will put him through the five punishments."

Zhu Xiang wiped his hands with a handkerchief: "It's up to you."

Cockroaches killed by chronic medication are still dead cockroaches, he doesn't care.

After that, King Zheng of Qin kept Zhao Gao for three months, and then exterminated his three clans for the crime of having an affair with a foreign minister. He tattooed his face, cut off his tongue, dug out his nose, cut off his ears, chopped off his feet, and beat him to death with a stick. He then cut off his head and hung it for public display, and then chopped the body into meat sauce and fed it to dogs.

This is the Qin State's death penalty, which is more severe than being torn apart by five horses, and it includes the Five Punishments.

Li Si also died from this punishment in his previous life.

In addition, Qin Shi Huang did not wrongly kill Zhao Gao. Zhao Gao did have secret dealings with foreign officials and formed a clique for personal gain.

After King Zheng of Qin indulged him once, he became even bolder.

Although the sentence was a bit heavy, the ministers all thought that King Zheng of Qin was killing a chicken to scare the monkeys, so they did not react much. At most, the Confucianists wrote to reduce the cruel punishment, saying that it was enough to just kill him, not so bloody.

However, in times of chaos, severe punishments are needed. They also knew that persuasion was useless, so they just made their attitude clear and would continue their efforts after Qin unified the world.

When King Zheng of Qin killed Zhao Gao, Zhu Xiang had already left Xianyang and continued to urge officials along the Yellow River to repair the Yellow River embankments.

The story he promised to tell his nephew would have to wait until the next Chinese New Year reunion.

Cai Ze and Lin Zhi did not know what happened between Zhu Xiang and Qin Wang Zheng because of Zhao Gao. They did not care about Zhao Gao's execution.

Zhao Gao was just an ordinary palace slave and eunuch, and no minister would pay much attention to him.

The punishment for the crime is deserved, and death is death, like dust.

Only Zhao Gao himself was heartbroken and could not believe it.

Before, he had falsely passed on the imperial edict, and the King of Qin had only punished him with a cane. Now, he had only accepted some bribes and spread a few words to the outside world, so how could he end up in such a situation? !

One moment he was still feeling proud of his success, and the next moment he fell into the hell of Wujianmen. The huge drop in height made him confused and almost insane.

He shouted, "It was Prime Minister Lin and Prime Minister Cai who harmed me!", but no one believed him.

Prime Minister Lin and Prime Minister Cai were both high and mighty people, how could they care about an ant that was as low as the dust

So when he was lucid for a moment because of the pain before his death, he suddenly realized that he was just an ant in this life.

Zhao Gao never reflected on his actions or repented until his death. He just lamented, wondering why he was not the one in the high position.

He died in the ant-like posture that he hated the most, and no one cared.

King Zheng of Qin also acted as if he didn't care about it, as if he had just stepped on a bug. After the spring ploughing, he immediately sent troops to attack the State of Yan.

Lian Po asked to take off his armor and no longer lead troops, and he only worked to comfort the people in Zhao.

During this campaign against Yan, King Zheng of Qin ordered Wang Jian to be the main general and Wang Jian's eldest son Wang Ben to be the deputy general. Lian Po's son Lian Fu was also appointed as Wang Jian's deputy general, and for the first time he left his father and went to battle alone.

This time, the Qin army also brought many young Qin generals, such as Li Xin.

King Zheng of Qin looked down on the State of Yan, so he asked Wang Jian to lead a group of young Qin generals to train troops.

The whole world is focused on the King of Qin's conquest of Yan. Who is Zhao Gao? I have never heard of him and I don't care.

But Ying Xiaozheng himself felt uncomfortable for a long time.

After listening to his uncle's "story", he would always talk to Emperor Ying Zheng in his dreams.

"Did you know that Zhao Gao and Li Si forged an imperial edict to make Hu Hai succeed to the throne?"

"Do you know that your beloved Hu Hai killed your children?"

"Did you know that the rebellion was approaching Xianyang City, and Hu Hai and Zhao Gao were still killing important officials of the Qin State?"

"Do you know that you were pickled with abalone to cover up the stench of corpses? People in later times wrote poems to ridicule you, saying 'Ying Zheng's coffin was made of abalone'?"

"The Qin Dynasty will be gone three years after your death! It will be gone! It will be gone!" Ying Xiaozheng shared his depression with the big Ying Zheng who was sleeping with his chin in his hand.

Daying Zheng still had his eyes closed and his chin in his hands, unmoved.

After venting the pressure in his heart, Ying Xiaozheng left the dream space gate with satisfaction.

Da Ying Zheng opened his eyes, they were bloodshot and full of murderous aura.

Then, the door to the dream space began to crumble and shatter into pieces.

"I'll kill you!"

Da Ying Zheng gnashed his teeth. I don't know who he meant by "kill you".

It can't be "I kill another younger version of myself".

Certainly not.

The already broken dream dissipated again. When the door to the dream room appeared next time, Ying Xiaozheng found that this dream was even more illusory.

Perhaps when I unify the world again, this dream will disappear.

Ying Xiaozheng felt a little disappointed.

The Great Ying Zheng was only a shadow in the end. He also wanted to share with the Great Ying Zheng his feelings after learning that "Ying Zheng's coffin cost abalone".
