I have imagined countless times how much obstacles I would face to see the King of Qin, perhaps even risking my life and still not being able to meet him.

Who would have thought, it was so easy!

I couldn't help but suspect whether the heavens had already arranged everything. When I decided to spend all my family's wealth and donate the silver to the army, I planted a good cause, and today I am reaping the rewards.

As per the usual procedure, the scouts searched me, checked for hidden weapons or poisons, and then took me to the central military tent to see the King of Qin.

In my past life as a ghost, I often heard people talk about this brave prince who stood out among the army. Today, I finally saw the real person.

He was sitting on a chair, around forty-five years old, handsome, with a robust figure, wearing silver scale armor, with a precious sword hanging from his waist, exuding an aura of authority without anger.

There were several imposing generals standing in front of the King of Qin.

After all, meeting a noble person, I was still somewhat nervous, and the whip marks on my body and the days of continuous travel had given me a cold, making my head particularly dizzy.

The King of Qin's voice was like a bell, "Are you the Ji Wanwan who shook the Songyang Prefecture before the New Year? It's rare for a young girl like you to have such patriotism."

I knelt down, "This humble woman has suffered injustice, and I beg the king for mercy."

The King of Qin frowned, "What's going on?"

I was almost at my limit, but enduring the high fever and intense pain, I recounted everything that had happened to the king in detail.

I banged my head on the ground, crying, "I'm not afraid of death, but I fear implicating good people. I beg the king to lend a hand and save my second brother Luan from prison. He protected me, saved me from being humiliated by evil people, knelt down for me. I am willing to repay with my life!"

The King of Qin pondered for a moment, instructed his attendants to help me up, and said, "To harm a loyal and righteous girl under my watch, they must have guts. Go, change the route to Songyang Prefecture. I want to meet this formidable Zhou Xuezheng and the imperial censor."

I breathed a sigh of relief, my vision darkened, and then I knew nothing.
