Chapter 361: Bai Yan's Accident
Inside the city of Handan.
In the main hall of the Handan Palace, it is full of white silk, whether it is the officials of the Qin State or the clan relatives, they are all wearing white clothes.
Ying Zheng stood outside the main hall, his deep eyes were red, and his slightly red and swollen eyes showed fatigue.
Looking at the endless houses and streets of Handan City in the distance, Ying Zheng's mind at this moment still flashed with scenes from his childhood from time to time.
When Zhao Ji was alive, Ying Zheng had complaints in his heart, and now that his only biological mother died, that feeling was only clear to Ying Zheng at this time.
"Your Majesty!"
A voice came from behind him.
Ying Zheng didn't look back, but he could still hear that the person who came was Ying Kan, after all, Ying Kan was a clansman elected by the royal family, and he had a prominent position in the court of Qin, so he was not familiar with it as the king of Qin.
"What?"
Ying Zheng asked.
At this moment, Ying Zheng doesn't want to see anyone, he just wants to be alone here, his mother dies, he also needs to return to Xianyang, and in the future, I am afraid that he will never come to Handan again.
This land is where he grew up, but it has never given him good memories.
"Your Majesty, someone is plotting against Yanmen and wants to assassinate Bai Yan!"
Ying Kan bent down and saluted, and while speaking, he looked at Ying Zheng's back, took out a bamboo slip from his sleeve pocket, and held it with both hands.
Ying Kan also knows that Ying Zheng doesn't like anyone to disturb him at the moment, but only at this time is Ying Kan's best chance, this time there are many people who premeditate Bai Yan's Qin Zhao Wang clan, these people have a lot of eyeliners, and identity reasons are all accompanied by Ying Zheng.
If you don't open your mouth now, when Bai Yan leaves Handan, there will be no more chances.
"What?"
When Ying Zheng heard Ying Kan say that someone wanted to assassinate Bai Yan, he turned around with a gloomy face and looked at Ying Kan in front of him.
At this moment, Ying Zheng's breathing was a little short, and his heart was extremely angry.
It's only been a long time.
Before all the affairs of Zhongmu City were clarified, someone wanted to kill Bai Yan, the general of the Qin State.
Come to think of it.
The anger in Ying Zheng's heart made the blue tendons on his forehead protrude slightly, and his reddened eyes were full of coldness in addition to sadness.
took the bamboo slip from Ying Kan's hand, Ying Zheng opened it and looked at the contents inside, looking at it, Ying Zheng's hands trembled a little.
"Is this accurate, and how do you know?"
Ying Zheng looked at the lists on the bamboo slips and asked.
When Ying Kan heard this, he saluted Ying Zheng again and slowly said what happened last night, but Ying Kan and Ying Xin, Ying Kan did not say that the two were involved.
Outside the main hall.
Ying Zheng looked at the bamboo slip in his hand, and listened to Ying Kan's words, those Zhao clan relatives actually wanted to take advantage of the death of the queen mother.
The enraged Ying Zheng, ignoring the prestige of King Qin, angrily threw the bamboo slip to the ground.
Ying Kan was taken aback.
Looking at Ying Zheng, Ying Kan had never seen Ying Zheng so angry.
"Win!"
Ying Zheng's face was red because of anger, his eyes were hideous, and he pointed at Ying Kan and ordered.
"The widow ordered you and Li Xin to arrest those people immediately, and not let anyone go, and the widow will execute those people in front of all the people of Handan."
Ying Zheng looked at Ying Kan, thinking back to one thing after another, he didn't have much affection for the Zhao clan, and he couldn't suppress the killing intent in his heart at this moment.
Those people don't regard him, the King of Qin, as a king, and take it seriously.
He doesn't need to worry about anything else.
"No!"
Ying Kan heard Ying Zheng's order, bowed his hand, and then slowly retreated, turned and left.
Half a day later.
In Handan City, on the originally lively streets, a group of Qin soldiers armed with Changge and bows and crossbows suddenly appeared, and these Qin soldiers under the leadership of the generals searched for them in Handan City.
Soon, under the gaze of the people, a man from the famous clan was all arrested, and some shops owned by the clan were also locked up.
The other side.
In Bai Yan's mansion, Bai Yan was looking at the bamboo slips in the study, and suddenly saw his cronies walking in hurriedly with a eunuch.
Looked at.
Bai Yan got up slowly.
Looking at Han Yan who was anxious, Bai Yan was a little surprised.
"Bai Yan, I've seen Lord Han."
Bai Yan slowly saluted, Bai Yan was naturally familiar with this Han Confessor, after all, he escorted Ying Zheng along the way, and Bai Yan was still very clear about the eunuchs beside Ying Zheng being relied on.
Seeing that Han Yan suddenly came to the mansion, Bai Yan was also very curious if there was something wrong.
"General White!"
Han Yan's breathing disorder was disordered, but he still gave Bai Yan a return gift.
After the ceremony.
Han Yu hurriedly took out the edict.
"General Bai, the king has an order!"
Han said to Bai Yan, and then opened the edict.
Seeing this, Bai Yan knelt on the ground and quietly waited for Han Yan to read the edict.
"There is an order from the king, Ying Kan found out that there were anti-thieves who planned to make trouble in Yanmen, and Zuo Gengbai Yan immediately led the iron cavalry to Yanmen to capture the thieves and garrison Yanmen without delay."
Han Yu read the edict, then put away the edict and handed it to Bai Yan, who was kneeling on the ground.
Bai Yan took Wang Zhao from Han Chen's hands with both hands at this moment, glanced at it, and was a little surprised.
"Does Lord Han know anything specifically?"
Bai Yan asked with some doubts, watching Han Yu take out a roll of bamboo slips from his sleeve pocket and hand it to himself, and after taking it, he asked softly.
During the inquiry, Bai Yan also opened the bamboo slips, and when he saw the names on the bamboo slips, Bai Yan was a little surprised.
Why are these people making trouble in Yanmen?
Yanmen is garrisoned by iron cavalry, and Zhao Bianqi has long had no intention of rebellion, could it be that these people want to capture Yanmen and force Zhao Bianqi to fail?
"General Bai, this matter has something to do with you!"
Hearing Bai Yan's inquiry, Han Yan arched his hand at Bai Yan and said.
Under Bai Yan's surprised gaze, Han Yan slowly told Zhao Yi, Zhao Shuo and others about the assassination plot by Zhao Yi, Zhao Shuo and others yesterday, and told Bai Yan that it was Ying Kan who entered the palace today and personally informed the king.
"I see!"
After listening to the ins and outs, Bai Yan bowed his hand to Han Yu and expressed his gratitude.
After the ceremony, Bai Yan didn't expect that if he repaid and repaid, he would win Kan so quickly, so he would return the favor to himself.
"General Bai, the king was very angry before, and now he ordered the general to immediately lead his troops to quell the chaos! The general still prepared early, and set off with Yang Duan and the old general. ”
Han Yan looked at Bai Yan and reminded softly.
"Thank you!"
Bai Yan heard Han Yan's words and nodded his head.
Bai Yan then escorted Han Yu all the way out of the mansion.
Half an hour later.
In Handan City, Bai Yan took a carriage and came to the streets of Handan City, watching the Qin officials coming and going on the streets along the way, and then came to the residence of General Yang.
Under the servant's briefing, General Yang, who was dressed in the official uniform of the Qin State, quickly walked out of the mansion.
"Lord Yang!"
Bai Yan looked at Old General Yang and raised his hand to salute, although the appointment has not yet been announced, Bai Yan has already learned that Old General Yang has been appointed by Yingzheng as the county guard of Yanmen and awarded the official seal.
In other words, now General Yang is a real minister in charge of a place.
At the beginning, Korea, a vassal state, was only a county after it was destroyed, Yingcheon County.
"General Bai doesn't need to be polite anymore, just call the old man Yang Lao ......"
When Yang Lao saw Bai Yan, he shook his head with a smile.
As a person who has come over, Yang Lao is a handful of age, and he knows that if it weren't for Bai Yan at the beginning, let alone an old minister of the Qin State at his age, even the Yang family would not be like this.
Therefore, Yang Lao knows how much affection he has for Bai Yan.
What's more, Elder Yang knew that if there was no accident, the post of county guard had already come to an end, and there was no way to go up.
The Yang family is not as good as the Feng family, the Li family, and Li Si, no matter how high the position, Yang Duanhe does not want to fight, and he has no intention of participating.
It is better to calm down, cultivate the descendants of the clan, and expand the network and lay the foundation for the descendants of the clan.
"Then Elder Yang should also call the kid Bai Yan!"
Bai Yan said with a smile, did not refuse Yang Lao's closeness, and then stretched out his hand to signal Yang Lao to get into the carriage first.
A moment later.
Bai Yan and Yang Lao rode in a carriage, escorted by iron cavalry soldiers, and walked towards the outside of the city.
Looking at the Qin officials who were constantly searching on the street, Yang Lao turned to the small curtain.
"I didn't expect that Ying Kan would admonish!"
Yang Lao said with a smile.
Although the words were not finished, Bai Yan couldn't hear the meaning of Yang's old words.
"Indeed, if it weren't for the help of the winner this time, Bai Yan would be afraid that he would not be able to escape."
At this moment, Bai Yan was also full of emotion.
Although Ying Kan is arrogant, but it is quite surprising to be a person, at least for other people, born like Ying Kan, there will be such pride as Ying Kan, but it is difficult to be as frank as Ying Kan.
Looking at Chu Yan's royal relatives, it is clear that Ying Kan can be like this, which is really emotional.
Listen to the chatter outside the carriage.
Bai Yan couldn't help frowning, he was really close to being ambushed and assassinated.
"Win Kan, win Kan! You owe us~ You can't die well! ”
"Win! You don't want to die! ”
"You shouldn't be responsible for us!"
Outside the carriage, there was a sudden sound of yelling, Bai Yan and Yang Duanhe looked at each other when they heard the words.
Bai Yan stretched out his hand to lift the small curtain of the curtain, and then saw that on the street, men with big flowers were tied up, and they kept yelling and scolding at the sky.
In the surrounding streets, countless people saw this scene and began to talk noisily.
And Bai Yan's carriage at this time also slowly stopped.
"That person is Zhao Yi!"
Bai Yan turned his head to Yang Lao and said.
After learning what had happened from Han Yan, they asked themselves that Bai Yan didn't believe that Zhao Yi and Zhao Shuo, who had only had a relationship with him once in the sacrifice, would unite so many scholars and use so many connections to assassinate him because he was a disciple of the Bai clan and the Yanmen incident.
Bai Yan didn't believe this at all.
Although the Yanmen incident has hurt the interests of countless scholars, with the foundation of the Zhao clan, it will not cost such a big price at all, and the reason for the Bai clan is even more outrageous.
However, there are many people at the moment, and Bai Yan doesn't want to get off the carriage here to ask Zhao Yi.
This matter should be handed over to others to investigate, Ying Zheng has already ordered him to rush to Yanmen, and it is better not to delay Ying Zheng's order for now.
"Zhao Yi."
Yang Lao nodded, then turned his head to look at Bai Yan and thought for a while.
"The old man heard that it wasn't just Zhao Yi and Zhao Shuo who were in Yingkan's mansion last night!"
Yang Lao said softly.
Elder Yang didn't tell Bai Yan how he knew, but he told Bai Yan that in Yingkan's mansion last night, there were other people besides Zhao Yi and Zhao Shuo.
"Anyone else?"
Bai Yan was very surprised when he heard Yang Lao's words.
Why didn't these Ying Kan tell the king, Mo Fei, and Ying Kan's clansmen!
Yes, the only people who can hide it from Ying Kan are also relatives of the royal family.
Chu Department!
For some reason, this thought suddenly appeared in Bai Yan's mind.
Just when Bai Yan wanted to speak.
Outside the carriage, Zhao Yi and others were detained.
On the street, although the congested people were driven out to make way, there were still dense people on both sides of the street to watch the excitement, and when they saw the arrival of the iron horse, all the people of Handan looked at the carriage in the iron horse.
The people of Handan know that they can be escorted by more than 100 iron horsemen in Handan City, except for Yingzheng, there is only one person.
And Zhao Yi and the others naturally immediately realized who the people in the carriage were.
Subsequently.
In the midst of all the people of Handan, under the gaze of everyone, Zhao Yi, Zhao Shuo and others suddenly shouted.
"Bai clan people, Zhao people will be punished!"
"The people of the Bai clan must not die well! Zhao Ren~! Have you forgotten the blood feud? Forget about the bones on the ground? ”
Zhao Shuo and Zhao Yi shouted loudly with sad faces.
In an instant, all the Zhao people who had been bustling on the street quieted down, looked at each other, and looked at the carriage.
Looking at those majestic Qin State iron horses, none of the people of Zhao State dared to step forward.
But hearing those words, all the people of Zhao Kingdom looked at the carriage, and they couldn't help but think of the events of thirty years ago in their minds, and their eyes gradually had a trace of hatred.
However, no matter how much hatred he had, looking at the iron knights of the Qin State, riding a war horse to escort the carriage and starting to walk forward slowly, no one dared to move lightly, not even scolding.
After all, the Qin State Iron Horseman, who was constantly riding horses, had gradually scanned both sides of the street with his eyes, and he seemed to be ready to draw his sword and kill at any time.
Thinking of the burning of the city by Gao Nu, I think of the tens of thousands of people burned to death by Lian Yue and the Xiongnu, and tens of thousands of people were killed.
All the people of Handan looked at the eyes of those iron cavalry soldiers, and a touch of fear and fear gradually emerged.
On the street, no matter how Zhao Yi scolded and stimulated the people of Zhao, he was still pressed aside, watching the Qin officials and the people of Zhao make way for those iron horses and make way for the carriage with the black flag of Qin.
Looking at the departing carriage after a while, Zhao Yi collapsed to the ground.
At this time, listening to the voices of the Zhao people around him who began to make noise, Zhao Yi's face was full of disappointment, so Zhao people, peace talks about the restoration of the country.
Thinking back to the frightened look on the faces of the people of Zhao Cai, Zhao Yi knew clearly.
In the future, as long as Bai Yan led the iron horse in Yanmen, the people of Zhao would not dare to resist anymore.
If Bai Yan does not die, and if the iron horse is not removed, it will be impossible for Zhao to be restored~!
Zhao Yi closed his eyes in despair.
Handan City Gate.
Yang Lao sat in the carriage and looked at Bai Yan.
"Do you have any complaints about your ancestor Shangwu Anjun?"
Elder Yang smiled and asked softly.
Thinking back to Zhao Yi's heart-wrenching words outside the carriage, Yang Lao knew that for the people of Zhao, although more than thirty years had passed, it was still something that all Zhao people could not forget.
The Bai clan has also become the clan that the people of Zhao remember the most.
Looking at Bai Yan now, remembering Bai Yan's identity as a disciple of the Bai family, Yang Lao suddenly felt that it might not be all bad to kill so many scholars in the previous plunder.
It can be imagined that if Bai Yan hadn't eliminated those old Yanmen forces in one fell swoop and allowed them to continue to encroach on the people of Yanmen, what Yanmen would be like now.
As Zhao Yi said, a person from the Bai clan like Bai Yan is afraid that if he is not careful, someone will assassinate him, and he will not be able to sleep even if he sleeps.
Not to mention that the scholars will make stumbling blocks in the dark, constantly fanning the people in the dark to cause rebellion.
"What a complaint! As a general of the Qin State, there are some things that have to be done! ”
Bai Yan heard Yang Lao's words and said with a smile, not caring about Fang Cai's affairs.
He is not a real disciple of the Bai family.
At the beginning, he asked for the surname of the Bai family, and later Bai Yu left him in Yangcheng and separated from Jue, Liang Lang and others, at that time, Bai Yan thought that there would be this day.
And before this day came, Bai Yan had worked hard to pave everything, and now the situation was already the best for the people of Zhao.
"Speaking of which, Bai Yan also wants to learn from Elder Yang about the detailed battle between Qin and Chu at the beginning."
Bai Yan sat in the carriage and said to Yang Lao Ji.
Unlike General Yu, Yang Lao was born in a scholar clan, and he had fought with Bai Qi to lead the troops, and Bai Yan also wanted to hear about Bai Qi's leading troops.
After all, among all the vassal states that Bai Qi has fought, except for the Zhao State, which suffered the greatest casualties, the second most miserable is the Chu State, which has lost the most land and dignity.
Even the tomb of the king of Chu was burned clean by a fire, burning the ancestral tomb of the king of Chu of the Chu people.
Thinking that sooner or later he would have to fight with the State of Chu in the future, Bai Yan still wanted to learn about the original incident from Yang Lao.
