The two guards standing in front of the palace gate sat on their Changge, half-leaning on the edge of the palace gate and chatting.

I don't know if it is the custom and tradition of the guards to gossip when they are on duty.

"I said, why don't we even have a patrol guard today, our team is gone."

A person supported Changge in his arms, turned his head to look at the empty palace.

On weekdays, when the team comes to check the class, they will definitely stand and dare not make a sound.

But today there is no one.

"Hey, don't know? The king ordered that a court meeting be held in Xianyang Palace, and most of the guards went there, and we were left here, which was considered lucky, and no one had time to take care of us. ”

Saying that, another guard, who looked older, leaned against the wall: "Hey, it's like a day of wildness." ”

As they were talking, the two of them saw outside the palace gate.

A white-robed man walked over slowly, the man was wearing plain white armor, like a general, with a cold armor on his face.

One of the guards was stunned for a moment.

How can there be a general dressed like this?

The older guard had a white face, and hurriedly pulled the person next to him to bow down, until the white-robed man walked in from the palace gate, and he didn't dare to raise his head and said.

"General Mourning."

The people who were still stunned on the side were so frightened that their legs weakened when they heard these three words, and they almost sat on the ground, and they were pulled by the same Wu on the side.

"Hmm."

Gu Nan walked past them and didn't care about their traditions.

After all, standing in front of this palace gate is a whole day, but it is not an easy job. If you don't even say a few words, it should really make people go crazy.

She has already sent the big beam strategy away, and if she has nothing to do after returning, she should go home.

Watching the man walk away, one of the guards let out a long sigh of relief and looked at the figure with trepidation.

"Whew, that is, the mourning general?"

"What a fuss." The old guard rolled his eyes disdainfully, as if it wasn't him who had turned pale just now.

"You've only been in the company for a few months, it's normal that you haven't seen it, and in the future, you will be brighter, guarding the gate of this palace, you can often see officials and ministers, if you see that, don't look up, you know?"

"Uh-huh, yes, got it."

Gu Nan took a few steps towards the palace.

As if remembering something again, he turned back.

Facing the two guards who were still whispering to the palace gate, he beckoned, "You guys." ”

The two guards turned around.

Seeing that the mourning general had come back again, he hurriedly bowed down in fright: "General, what are your orders?" ”

Looking at the appearance of the two guards, Gu Nan lowered his head and looked at himself in amazement.

I am, is it that scary?

"Just now you said that today's Xianyang Palace court meeting?"

Although he didn't know what he was asking for, the guard replied, "It's the general." ”

Gu Nan glanced at the palace in the distance in the palace suspiciously, vaguely feeling a little strange, and looked at the soldier again.

"Do you know why?"

The sudden holding of a court meeting should be something important.

"General Hui, the little one has also heard of it, and I don't know how it is, but I heard that I want to meet with an envoy of the Yan Kingdom."

The guard stood in front of Gu Nan tremblingly, standing in front of the mourning general to answer, only to feel chills all over his body, as if he was being forced with a knife.

"Envoy of the Yan Kingdom?" Gu Nan's brows furrowed, as if he had thought of something, and his tone sank slightly.

"What are you doing?"

"Listen, hear, it's to present a map of Yancheng and the King of Qin."

A drop of cold sweat left on the guard's forehead.

Yan Xian Du Kang map and King Qin, the picture is poor dagger.

Gu Nan held Wuge's hand and pressed it, hoping that I was thinking too much.

Nodding at the guard, "Thank you." ”

Then he hurriedly held Wuge and turned to leave.

"Don't dare."

It wasn't until they saw Gu Nan disappear from sight that the two guards straightened up together, glanced at each other, and wiped the sweat from their foreheads.

————————————————————

On the top of the main hall, the ministers stood on both sides, watching a person outside the hall walk towards the hall with a long box in his hand.

The man was wearing a formal robe, and his clothes were not luxurious, but his appearance was a little extraordinary, and his figure was straight.

Walking into the temple with the box in his hand, his footsteps were dull.

He passed by the temple gate, crossed his eyes, and looked at a man standing by the temple gate.

It was a palace swordsman with a long sword at his waist.

Gai Nie, as the close guard of King Qin, in the entire hall except for King Qin, he is the only one who can be equipped with a sword, and it is precisely because of this that he just stands on the side of the palace door.

As if sensing something, Gai Nie, who was standing next to the temple door, raised his eyes and looked at the Yan envoy.

The pupils in his eyes contracted slightly, and he watched the Yan envoy walk towards King Qin.

I thought back to the words of the man a few days ago.

"When I arrive, I will give Brother Gai a great achievement, and Brother Gai will take it, and he will be greatly used in this Qin State in the future."

He, what to do?

On the top of the main hall, Ying Zheng sat on the seat, dressed in court clothes, and quietly watched His Royal Highness's Yan Envoy.

There was an attendant standing beside him, who looked at the Yan envoy approaching and said in a loud voice, "Please, the Yan envoy is in the map." ”

Jing Ke glanced at the hall, he didn't see that person, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

That person is not there, so that within ten steps, no one can go down to the king of Qin under his sword.

He bowed, bowed his head, and walked up the steps with both hands holding the long box in his hand, half-kneeling in front of King Qin.

"Your Majesty, please look."

As he spoke, he put the box down, took out the map inside, and slowly rolled it open in front of Ying Zheng.

Time seemed to slow down, passing in an extremely slow way, and the map in Jing Ke's hand opened little by little, revealing the land of Yan Kingdom depicted in pen and ink inside.

A chuckle appeared on Ying Zheng's face.

The hall was silent.

In only one corner, a figure came out from behind the hall, and stood behind the crowd, and no one observed the appearance of this person.

looked at the person who offered the picture standing in front of Yingzheng on the top of the hall, and his eyes were stunned.

The map revealed its full face, and as the corner of the cloth slid down, revealing what had been hidden in the map all along.

It was a short sword, and what attracted people's attention was a line of blood condensed on the blade.

Before everyone could react, a sword light had already flashed.

The sword was so fast that it was hard to see clearly, and it was held in Jing Ke's hand.

Ying Zheng only saw that the light and shadow in front of him disappeared, and a white light broke out.

His hand rested on the hilt of the sword at his waist, but he didn't have time to draw it.

Gai Nie's sword was also unsheathed, and he looked fixedly at the figure holding the sword and stabbing it, and the sword in his hand paused.

The sword light in front of him was getting closer and closer, and Ying Zheng felt for the first time that life and death were so close to him.

I don't know if it's an illusion, but there seems to be a black-red glimmer coiled above the blade.

The glimmer seemed to pierce something in front of Ying Zheng.

"Thorn!!"

The sound of a sword slashing into flesh.
