Ying Zheng summoned Xu Fu to the palace. Xu Fu was so beautiful that he entered the palace just like that.

However, this time he entered the palace and was not only greeted by Ying Zheng, but also by the Queen.

Shimi knew that Xu Fu was a charlatan. He had obtained some tobacco and used it as a magic elixir from somewhere. Today, he was going to see who the number one liar who was "famous for generations" was. Where did you get the tobacco?

The emperor and the queen were both sitting in the main hall. The daring Xu Fu was naturally a little flustered. He thought that Qin Shihuang had never appointed a queen. No... the queen was sitting in the hall, but she was too far away to see clearly. .

"I have used the elixir you gave me these days, and I do feel that my body is light and relaxed a lot. I wonder if you still have it?"

Xu Fu lay on the ground, and after doing some mental construction for himself for a while, he started to brag.

"As far as your Majesty is concerned, the common people only got these dozen pieces from the immortals, and they have all been dedicated to Your Majesty."

Ying Zheng was a little disappointed. He stroked his beard and sighed.

"What a pity...this medicine does work. If it disappears, then I will..."

Xu Fu heard this and immediately answered:

"Your Majesty, if you think it is useful, then the common people are willing to board the ship again to find the Immortal Island for the sake of your Majesty's health, and ask the old god to give you the elixir of immortality!"

Upon hearing this, Ying Zheng glanced at Shimi hurriedly. Seeing that Shimi didn't answer, he asked again

"Do you still remember the way you went?"

"Back to Your Majesty, the common people met the immortal by accident. At that time, the common people only drove a small boat and brought limited dry food. The conditions were bad at the time, and they really didn't remember where the fairy island was."

Xu Fu hesitated for a moment, then quickly added

"However, this trip is for His Majesty to obtain the elixir of immortality. Xu Fu shoulders a heavy responsibility. No matter how bad the conditions are, Xu Fu is willing to go and will not give up until he finds the elixir!"

That sounds very nice!

Shimiya burst into laughter listening to this. This guy didn't need to think too much when he lied, he just opened his mouth!

"Just because you go there alone, how can you be sure that the immortal will give you the elixir?"

Shikiya asked.

Xu Fu already had a script in mind. No matter what others asked, he could always answer them fluently.

"Returning to the empress, the common people's trip to the sea is of great significance. They are asking for it on behalf of the emperor! The emperor's achievements are unparalleled and powerful, and he has great achievements in pacifying the world. He can also make the people live and work in peace and contentment, and everyone in the world is happy. Such merits are unprecedented. , There will never be another one, if the immortal knows that he wants to give the elixir to such a wise master, how can he refuse?"

Xu Fu glanced at Ying Zheng and said somewhat tentatively

"It's just that in order to ensure that this trip is safe, it is better for the common people to bring a few things to give to the immortals."

"What do you want to bring?"

Ying Zheng obviously believed his nonsense. No matter what request he made at this moment, as long as Ying Zheng could do it, he would probably agree to it.

"I hope that Your Majesty can give the grass-roots people fifty large ships, plus three thousand boys and girls, and go out to sea with the grass-roots people to find the fairy island."

"Why do you want these?"

Shikiya sneered.

Xu Fu heard the queen's sarcasm, but he responded calmly and confidently

"Your majesty, empress... you don't know. This fairy island is in the illusory and uncertain Penglai fairyland. It takes some luck to find it. If we don't prepare enough ships, what if we encounter wind and waves on the way? All your efforts have been wasted?"

"What about the boys and girls?"

Ying Zheng asked

"Those are tributes to the immortals, and they can also be regarded as boys who go to seek enlightenment. If these people follow the immortals and learn the art of refining elixirs to become immortals, wouldn't they be able to be used by your majesty when they come back? If your majesty wants elixirs then, you don't have to spend a lot of trouble. If we go out to sea to search, wouldn’t it be true that there are as many miraculous drugs as we want?”

Ying Zheng thought for a moment and said hesitantly

"Three thousand childhood virgins is not a problem, but... you want fifty big ships, and there won't be so many ships for a while. If you want them, I will have to order someone to build them for you."

Considering the labor force at that time, rushing to build fifty large ships that could go to sea was really a big project. It not only cost people and money, but also wasted ecological resources. Ying Zheng naturally had to consider it carefully.

"No need for fifty ships. I think ten ships are enough?"

At this time Shikiya spoke. It's just that her tone didn't sound good, and it was a bit more mean.

"Xu Xianren asked for fifty ships when he asked for it. Since ancient times, no one has been able to command a large fleet of fifty ships. Why are you so confident?"

"This……"

Xu Fu was stunned for a moment, feeling guilty for fear that his lies would be exposed.

"Fifty ships, do you know how much financial and people's energy will be wasted to build these ships?"

"This……"

Xu Fu hesitated, not knowing how to answer.

Seeing that the queen was armed with a gun and a stick, Ying Zheng smiled and comforted her.

"He also said this to find the elixir for me, just to be sure."

Ying Zheng said

"Fifty ships are too many. Let's do this. I allow you ten ships. If you come back empty-handed, I won't blame you. How about that?"

The emperor had already spoken, so how could he remain stubborn? Although Xu Fu was unwilling to do so, he could only nod in agreement.

"As for the boys and girls, it's easy to deal with. I will post notices and go to the private sector to recruit them."

Ying Zheng probably longed for immortality. When he heard that Xu Fu was willing to take this trip, he didn't think much about it and said:

"I will send you an army to protect you, and also give you a hundred gold to spend on your journey, how about that?"

When I heard that Ying Zheng was so generous, of course I would accept it as soon as possible! Xu Fu didn't care whether there were ten or fifty ships. He immediately kowtowed and thanked him, feeling so happy!

On the way back to the dormitory, Shimi, Zhucui couldn't help but ask

"My Majesty knew that the man was a liar. Not only did he defraud the Emperor of some of his finances, but he still dared to play tricks on the Emperor. Why didn't you expose him face to face and kill him?!"

Shimi shook his head and sighed.

"You have also seen that the emperor has used the so-called elixir in the past few days and his body has become much stronger. I think the effect of that thing is only as good as a fingernail. It is probably the result of the emperor's heart. Now the emperor believes in Xu Fu If you say that, you can find some comfort in your heart, or just think about it... so that he doesn't have to worry about it anymore."

"Let him cheat so many things for nothing?"

Shikiya smiled and said

"The Emperor has found sustenance, and his body and mood are naturally better than before. If he wants to lie, just lie... I will embarrass the Emperor by exposing Xu Fu's lies in public."

"Mother...what you said is really not like you..."

Zhu Cui knew that Shimi could distinguish between black and white, so why was she willing to turn a blind eye today.

Seeing Zhucui's doubts, Shiya covered his mouth and snickered.

"It seems I can't hide my true intentions from you!"
