Xiang Shaolong had a brainwave: “Why don’t Crown Prince set up a special elite force that reports directly and only to you Using training as an excuse, you can send the City If there is any trouble, Crown Prince can easily command them back to the city and quash your enemies”
Xiao Pan was revitalized: “You are right As Master has said, governing authority coht But I only trust you and you are busy with the City defences Ai, but this is the best plan I a the Cavalry and Infantry armies In the future, there will be Lao Ai’s spies too Only soldiers recruited outside Xianyang City can be trusted By then, I will not be afraid of Lu Buwei”

Xiang Shaolong explained: “Because Huan Qi and wang Ben are young, they are eous and loyal They are fearless and Lu Buwei is nothing to the the rebellion as an excuse, ill create this special elite force Then, Crown Prince can su Meng Ao and wang Ci When the time is ripe, they can attack Lu Buwei After Lu Buwei has been disposed of, full military control lies in your hands and everyone will have to submit to you”
He had a good laugh and knowingly added: “You have Li Si to be your advisor and three powerful generals wang Jian, wang Ben and Huan Qi The world will be yours”
Curious, Xiao Pan asked: “Why didn’t Master mention about himself?”
Xiang Shaolong stretched out his hand and patted his shoulder lightly: “After your hting spirit Now, I a put to help you When you are fully in control of Qin, I will leave here for the northern plains and live the rest of my life in peace”
Xiao Pan trembled uncontrollably: “Master, how can you leave me?”
Xiang Shaolong smiled helplessly and whispered: “I represent your past It is only when I aet your identity as Xiao Pan and conquer the world, beco If you respect me, you must accept this piece of advice”
Dumbfounded, Xiao Pan stared at hi’ twice Amazed, he asked: “Why are Master’s casual words so full of deep s?”

Due to the noisy chatting and sounds of cutlery clattering, Li Si leaned to Xiang Shaolong’s ear and whispered: “The Crown Prince is very satisfied with Huan Qi This man is well-versed in military warfare and is an extraordinary rooeneral”
Xiang Shaolong is greatly co Huan Qi, this man will surely rise to the occasion
This is part of his long ter talented Qin natives, it is easy for the Qin military to accept them and they will form a powerful force to counter Lu Buwei and Lao Ai in the future and will also help to secure Xiao Pan as the rightful King of Qin
