Two days later.

Jing Ke and his entourage, who set off from Yan State, and Bai Yan, the county lieutenant who set off from Yanmen, hurried along the way, and finally came to Xianyang, the capital of Qin State.

Because the order was reported in advance, at this moment, there were already many confessors wearing Qin official uniforms waiting at the city gate.

Seeing the arrival of Bai Yan and his party, all the confessors stood up straight.

After the carriage stopped.

Under the watchful eyes of many Qin officials and palace guards at the city gate.

Bai Yan, who was driving in front, took the lead in getting out of the carriage, and then stepped out of the carriage.

Bai Yan saw that among the envoys who came to greet the envoys of the Yan Kingdom, the leader was the Han confessor who had several faces, Bai Yan was not surprised by this, the seniority of the Han confessor in the Xianyang Palace far exceeded that of others, coupled with the trust of Yingzheng, it was normal for the Han confessor to lead others to come to greet the envoys this time.

"Han Zhizhi!"

Bai Yan stepped forward in small steps and bowed to Han Zhi.

"This time there is General Lao Bai!"

Han Yan slowly bowed his hand to Bai Yan.

At this time, Bai Yan looked at Jing Ke and his party who walked down from the carriage, and did not catch up with Han Yu again.

"You see, it seems to be an envoy of the Yan Kingdom!"

"Yes, how could the envoys of the Yan Kingdom suddenly come to Xianyang?"

"I don't know! I heard that the eldest son of the right prime minister was killed in Chu State some time ago, and now the envoys of Yan State have come to Qin State again, and a lot of major events have happened recently! ”

Outside the city gate, the scholars who entered and exited the city gate did not dare to approach when they saw Han Yu and others, and when they saw Jing Ke and others, they all looked at each other and talked in a low voice.

Recently, the killing of the eldest son of the right prime minister Changpingjun has caused a sensation in the entire Xianyang City, and there are people everywhere talking about this matter, and everyone is speculating about who has the courage to do so.

Will the State of Qin and the State of Chu be at war because of this matter?

Today, Yan sent envoys again.

I don't know why.

"Yan envoy Jing Ke!"

Jing Ke held a scepter in his hand, took Qin Wuyang and two Yan Chen from the carriage procession, stepped forward and walked in front of Han Chen, and bowed his hand.

"I've seen the Yan Envoy!"

Han confessed to see Jing Ke, returned the salute, did not dare to slack off, this trip Yan envoys came to negotiate peace, and offered the land of Yan and the head of Fan Yu period, it is really a valuable guest of Qin State, as a confessor, can not be rude.

However, when he saw the young man wearing the envoy uniform of the Yan Kingdom behind Jing Ke, and saw his red, swollen and black cheeks, Han Yu couldn't help but show a surprised look.

Recalling that yesterday when Wang Shang was in the study, he saw the bamboo slips sent by Hanguguan, and suddenly laughed and said, 'This Bai Yan'.

At that time, Han Yu didn't understand why the king looked at Zhu Jian and laughed, and said Bai Yan's name.

Until this moment.

Seeing the appearance of this young deputy envoy of Yan State, Han Yu vaguely guessed that it was likely that the appearance of the deputy envoy of Yan State was inseparable from General Bai.

Although it is not clear what happened between the deputy envoy of Yan and General Bai in Hangu Pass.

But now, since the Yan envoy and General Bai are safe, and the appearance of the king yesterday does not mean to blame at all, Han Yu naturally will not ask.

"This time, Jing Ke is escorted by General Lao Bai!"

After Jing Ke and Han Yu made the salute, they turned to look at Bai Yan on the side, and bowed their hands with a grateful face.

looked at Bai Yan in front of him.

Jing Ke's heart is actually very complicated, at first his impression of Bai Yan has always been rumored, from the iron and bloody wrist of the Shangjun Gaonu, and the battle between Qin and Zhao and Li Mu in the back, and then to the Zhao Dishi clan who dealt with all the crimes in the back.

For a long time, in Jing Ke's heart, the feeling for Bai Yan was that of a Qin general who was indifferent and liked to kill.

Just as in the same rumors, those Confucian scholars and scholars judged Bai Yan, Jing Ke also had a disgust for Bai Yan in his heart, and he couldn't wait to get rid of it when he was in Yan Kingdom.

This is also why after Gongzi Dan spoke, he agreed to kill Bai Yan for Gongzi Dan without hesitation.

However, along the way, after coming into contact with Bai Yan, Jing Ke's senses for Bai Yan have begun to change.

From passing through the cities of Yanmen, what caught Jing Ke's eyes was that compared with those Zhao forces and scholars who claimed to love the people, the people of Yanmen were really recuperating, and the people worked to solve the problem of food and clothing.

When I first passed through Daidi, I saw the hungry people on the roadside, the scene of ten rooms and nine empty rooms in the village, and the dead corpses and skinny people on the roadside with numb and desperate looks.

These were things that Jing Ke had never seen since he entered Yanmen.

Jing Ke also entered Yanmen, and gradually understood that on the way to Yanmen, he always saw that the people would rather risk death than secretly migrate to Yanmen.

And then all the way from Yanmen to Xianyang.

Jing Ke had seen the young Bai Yan take Qin to worship in Gaonu, and he had also seen the appearance of a gentleman on the city wall of Hangu Pass, and at dusk, when Bai Yan treated ordinary soldiers.

These are all more affectionate, righteous and gentlemanly than the scholars Jing Ke has seen.

It also made Jing Ke clear how ridiculous those widely circulated rumors about Bai Yan in Yan Country were.

Ask.

Jing Ke, who was born a ranger and traveled all over the world, if he hadn't promised Gongzi Dan, if he hadn't known that Bai Yan's threat to Yan Guo was too great, he really didn't want to assassinate such a gentleman.

Pity.

People have a heart of loyalty.

Jing Ke promised Gongzi Dan, and he was not willing to live up to Yan Guo.

So even if he admires Bai Yan very much, but no matter what this time, in the Xianyang Palace, he still wants to kill Bai Yan for Gongzi Dan to repay the kindness of Gongzi Dan of Yan Kingdom.

"It's okay!"

Bai Yan saw Jing Ke saluting him, and slowly raised his hand.

"Since the Yan envoy has arrived in Xianyang, the Han envoy will lead the Yan envoy to the residence to recuperate!"

After Bai Yan saluted, he looked at Jing Ke and said.

"There is labor."

Jing Ke nodded and looked at Bai Yan.

sighed in his heart, thinking that he would be separated from Bai Yan next, and the next time they met, they would be in the Xianyang Palace, and Bai Yan would be killed at that time.

Come to think of it.

Jing Ke took a step back and solemnly saluted Bai Yan again.

"See you at the palace one day!"

Jing Ke said.

"Goodbye!"

Seeing this, Bai Yan also took a step back, raised his hand, and saluted Jing Ke seriously.

After a few breaths, after Bai Yan and Jing Ke made a salute, they watched the carriage of Yan Guo behind him bypass the iron horse and slowly drive up, Jing Ke turned around and led Qin Wuyang and the others onto the carriage.

Bai Yan stood in place and glanced at Qin Wuyang.

Qin Wuyang, who happened to be following behind Jing Ke and was about to get into the carriage, also looked at Bai Yan, and in an instant, seeing Bai Yan's gaze, Qin Wuyang turned his head nervously, and his movements of climbing into the carriage were much sharper.

Seeing this, Bai Yan turned his head, saluted Han Zhi, and signaled that the next thing would be, and there would be a Han Zhi.

Han Yan looked at Bai Yan, and returned the salute, and when Jing Ke and the others took the back carriage, he said goodbye to Bai Yan, turned around and took the carriage of the palace, and led Jing Ke and his party into Xianyang City.

"General!"

Qi led the war horse, slowly came behind Bai Yan, and looked at the carriage of the envoys of the Yan Kingdom.

Fang Caiyang naturally saw Qin Wuyang's frightened appearance, and when he thought of it, he wanted to laugh, Qin Wuyang's appearance of looking down on everyone along the way, he didn't even pay attention to the general, and he remembered it vividly, which had already made the soldiers feel a little angry in their hearts.

It's a pity that when they were in Hangu Pass, they were going to settle down in the big camp, and they couldn't see the general slap Qin Wuyang's cheek with a wooden sword, and I heard that Qin Wuyang was still using a real sword behind him, and he was directly knocked out by the general.

Thinking about it, I couldn't help but say with joy.

Although his background is not as good as Qin Wuyang, he looks down on Qin Wuyang, a child of the scholar family, from the bottom of his heart.

If a disciple of the scholar clan of the Yan Kingdom is placed on the battlefield and has no one in his eyes, I am afraid that he will not know how to die in the end.

In the past two days, the soldiers have been discussing, and the general has a good temperament, if they are replaced, Qin Wuyang dares to snatch the real sword in the wooden sword competition, and after losing, they will exchange their lives for their lives, and they will definitely kill Qin Wuyang.

"Take the soldiers to rest first!"

Under the city gates.

Bai Yan looked at the carriage of Yan Guojing Ke and others, entered Xianyang City, turned around, and ordered Jue to take the soldiers to rest.

"No!"

Jue gave his hand to Bai Yan to receive the order, and then turned around and led the horse away.
