Chapter 385: Jing Ke Sees Yingzheng

As the hundred officials walked on the hundred-step stairs, Bai Yan felt more and more nervous in his heart, looking at the hall that was getting closer and closer, turning his head, and looking back at the grand ceremonial instruments on both sides of the stairs as he walked, as well as the maids.

In the end, Bai Yan looked at the officials who walked into the hall on the left and right, and turned his head to follow. Inside the main hall.

As the officials in the ranks of the generals went to their seats, after Bai Yan entered the main hall, he also walked to his own seats and slowly knelt down and sat down.

Seeing that even in the main hall, there were exquisite ceremonial instruments on both sides, Bai Yan couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

This time, for the envoys sent by Yan State, Ying Zheng really received them with the highest standard of etiquette. Yan Dan, Yan Dan, if you see this scene, will you have a trace of regret?

Bai Yan couldn't help but sigh in his heart. However, this emotion dissipated in an instant, and Bai Yan knew that even if Yan Dan saw all this, I am afraid that Jing Ke would still assassinate Yingzheng.

Between thoughts. At this time, the figure of the eunuch appeared in front of the main hall. Then what caught his eye was that Yingzheng slowly went to the throne accompanied by the eunuch.

When Bai Yan saw this scene, he put away his thoughts.

"Meet the King!" Bai Yan raised his hand and saluted Yun Zheng together with the Chinese military officials. Many voices converged in the main hall, and it was very loud.

The monarch and the ministers performed the first salute between the court, and Bai Yan was naturally no exception, waiting for a few breaths, accompanied by Yingzheng's return salute, Bai Yan slowly got up after the ceremony and continued to kneel in place.

After Yingzheng also got up, the early dynasty officially began. In the early dynasty, as always, it was still Yingzheng who opened his mouth, and the civil and military officials stood up to report if they had problems, and Yingzheng would also ask the opinions of the officials before making a decision on some important matters.

But what surprised Bai Yan today was that the first person to stand up and report was Tai Jing. Looking at Tai Jing's eyes full of excitement and excitement, as well as his serious expression, Bai Yan was a little surprised, but he couldn't help but think of himself at the beginning.

When he was knighted by Ying Zheng in this hall in person, under the gaze of hundreds of civil and military officials, his heart was not like this, and Tai Jing was like this, excited, excited, grateful, and even wanted to prove to the world that Ying Zheng did not look at the wrong person, and he would never live up to Ying Zheng's attention.

Fortunately, it was also at that time that he gave his origin to Yingzheng, so the nervousness at that time suppressed the excitement, so he was not like Tai Jing.

Thinking back to himself at that time, Bai Yan could understand Tai Jing's mood. Looking at Tai Jing's appearance now, it is obvious that he has just been promoted, and the excitement and enthusiasm in his bones have not yet subsided.

Inside the main hall. Tai Jing's report was not very important, and he soon received a reply from Ying Zheng, followed by other officials.

Seeing that Tai Jing got Yingzheng's reply as if he had been beaten with chicken blood, even if he returned to his seat, his face was still flushed with excitement, and Bai Yan couldn't help but smile slightly.

Just as Bai Yan was about to divert his gaze, Tai Jing, who was on the civilian side, also noticed Bai Yan. Wei Tai Jing looked at Bai Yan's kind eyes, and also raised a smile.

Although Tai Jing's official position is far inferior to Bai Yan, among the ranks of hundreds of officials, he is relatively close to the end, but he is in the same court, which is far from being comparable to the past.

However, at this time, when Tai Jing looked at Bai Yan and smiled at each other, he also noticed that General Li Xin, who was separated by two people behind Bai Yan, seemed to notice Bai Yan, and then turned his head to look at himself as well.

Looked at. Tai Jing nodded slightly at Li Xin with a smile and kind eyes, and when he touched Li Xin's gaze.

Previously, Tai Jing had heard that Bai Yan had a very good relationship with the Li family in Longxi, and among them, he was even better with General Li Xin.

"Huh?" When Tai Jing thought that in the face of his kindness, Li Xin would also show goodwill, but suddenly saw Li Xin take a look, and continued to look elsewhere.

For a while, Tai Jing couldn't help but be a little stunned. What's going on? Just when Tai Jing was puzzled, he saw a eunuch hurriedly walk in from outside the palace, and under the gaze of hundreds of civil and military officials, he came to the center of the hall to salute Ying Zheng.

"Report to the king, Yan envoy is outside the palace, with Fan Yu's head and Yan Dukang's map, asking to see the king!" The eunuch saluted to Ying Zhengji.

The eunuch's voice sounded in the main hall, Tai Jing heard the eunuch's words, his heart was full, and he didn't have time to think about why Li Xin was like that, and after learning that the Yan envoy came to ask for a meeting, Tai Jing immediately turned on his brain, thinking about how to congratulate the king in the most beautiful language.

After all, the envoys of the Yan Kingdom came to sue for peace, but it was a big deal! And as long as the eyes are not blind, from entering the palace to this hall, looking at the arranged ceremonial instruments, it is clear how much attention the king attaches to the arrival of the Yan envoy, this is the highest nine-bin ceremony in the Qin State.

Don't miss the opportunity! Thinking of this, Tai Jing took a deep breath and prepared to get up to congratulate the king.

Suddenly, Tai Jing heard a voice from behind him.

"Your Majesty!" When Tai Jing heard the voice, he couldn't get up, he immediately stiffened in place, turned his head, and looked at the two or three Qin State officials behind him with a stunned face.

It was obvious that Tai Jing was thinking about the congratulatory message, and the officials behind Tai Jing couldn't wait to get up and walk out of the ranks and congratulate Ying Zheng.

"Congratulations to my king, congratulations to my king, Yan Guo sincerely presents the map of the governor Kang and my Qin country's rebel general Fan Yu is the first level of the period, it is actually Yan Guo to my Qin country, to my king to show its surrender, congratulations to my king, my king is the destiny of heaven! My king rules the world, which is ~ the wish of the world!! A young official about the size of Tai Jing, wearing an official uniform, raised his hands, looked excited, and said in an impassioned tone.

This scene made Tai Jing stunned. That official Tai Jing knew, and he knew him very well, his name was Le Shang, when Tai Jing was a pedestrian before, that Le Shang was a waiter.

When Tai Jing was promoted, Le Shang was also promoted because of his merits, although the two of them had different positions, but in terms of age and status, Le Shang was much lower than Tai Jing.

During this period of time, Tai Jing looked at the fate of his new colleagues, but he drank and had fun with Le Shang in private.

At this time, Tai Jing looked at Le Shang with a stunned expression. Because the words of Le Shang congratulating the king were the words of his chatting with Le Shang outside the palace early this morning.

Tai Jing still clearly remembered that when Le Shang heard his words, he smiled and shook his head slightly, saying that he was worried that the king would not like it.

"Congratulations to my king! Congratulations to my King! ”

"Congratulations to my king, congratulations to my king!!" With Le Shang's congratulations, the loud voices of the hundred officials resounded throughout the hall.

Tai Jing came back to his senses, and saw that all the civil and military officials congratulated Yingzheng, and naturally he didn't dare to slack off. However, although it was a congratulation, Tai Jing's heart was already dripping blood.

Le Shang, villain also~! At this moment, Tai Jing was so depressed that he almost didn't take a breath, especially when he saw Le Shang congratulate the king with what he said in the morning, and let all the civil and military officials, even Wei Yi, Li Si, Wang Juan and other ministers, echo the words.

I am afraid that such an honor will not be encountered once in years, decades. And all of this should have belonged to him Tai Jing!

! This made Tai Jing regret more and more, and he almost didn't slow down again. On the main hall. Listening to the congratulations of the civil and military officials, Yingzheng, who was kneeling on the throne, couldn't help but show a smug smile.

Not to mention Meng Jia's words yesterday, at this moment, in Yingzheng's heart, the same as the opinion of the hundred officials, Yan Guo personally ordered the most fertile and important gateway to come to Qin State and dedicate it to him Yingzheng, what is this move not surrender.

I think of the long-cherished wish of the Qin kings of the past dynasties, and the legacy of my father, grandfather, great-grandfather, and many other ancestors.

Now the Qin State, which is under the leadership of his Yingzheng, first destroyed Han, and then destroyed Zhao, and now the soldiers are bloodless, so that the Yan State surrenders, gets the gateway to the Yan State, and is one step closer to Qin's domination of the world.

How can Yingzheng not be happy, how can he not be excited. Not to mention, there is also Fan Yuzhi's first level! Come to think of it.

Wei Yingzheng's already excited face flashed with a deep anger buried in his heart. If he waited for the head sent by the Yan envoy, it would really be Fan Yuzhi's head, and he would definitely order someone to hang Fan Yuzhi's head on the head of Xianyang City.

The anger in his heart made Ying Zheng look up at the gate of the main hall, unwilling to wait any longer.

"Summoning Yan envoys into the temple!" Ying Zheng opened his mouth and commanded. When the words fell, the eunuch on the side heard Ying Zheng's order, so he took two steps forward on one side and shouted outside the palace with a sharp voice.

"Summoning the Yan envoy into the temple !!" The words of the eunuch resounded throughout the hall and reached the ears of hundreds of civil and military officials, and the eunuchs and guards waiting outside the palace gate could naturally hear it.

Soon, accompanied by Yingzheng's orders. After a long time. Under the whispering of civil and military officials, outside the main hall, the sound of ritual music suddenly sounded faintly.

Why did the sound of Lile suddenly remember, this point is clear to all civil and military officials. Bai Yan was in the ranks of military generals, and he also heard a voice that was getting closer and louder, and slowly turned his head and looked at the gate of the main hall.

At this time, not only Bai Yan, but also Qiang Yan, Li Xin, Wang Xuan, Hu Lao, Bai Yu and other civil and military officials, as well as Le Shang, who had a proud face, all looked at the gate of the main hall.

After a few moments. Listen to the louder and louder liturgical music. The figures of Jing Ke and Qin Wuyang, the envoys of the Yan Kingdom, appeared outside the main hall, entered everyone's sight, and slowly walked towards the main hall.

In a flash. With the footsteps of Jing Ke and Qin Wuyang, the envoys of the Yan Kingdom, the moment they stepped into the main hall, the Yuefu Ling and Yuefu Cheng next to the ceremonial instruments in the main hall turned their heads to look at the music attendants on the side.

Suddenly, bursts of crisp and pleasant ceremonial music sounded one after another in the main hall. All the civil and military officials listened to the music, and their eyes looked at the Yan envoy Jing Ke who entered the main hall, as well as Qin Wuyang.

As an envoy, Wei Jingke walked in front with a wooden box in his hand, and when he thought of something, he quickly noticed Bai Yan in the ranks of military generals wearing the black official uniform of the Qin State.

And Qin Wuyang, who was following on the side, was holding a scroll of cloth in both hands. Unlike Jing Ke, who held his head high and was quite imposing, Qin Wuyang came to the Xianyang Hall for the first time at this moment, looking at the palace in front of him that was even more magnificent than the Yan King Palace, his palms were full of sweat, and the hall in front of him was really bigger than Qin Wuyang imagined.

Listening to the sound of music on both sides of the hall, thinking about what he would do later, at this moment, Qin Wuyang's head was buzzing, getting louder and louder, and his heartbeat was beating violently, and even after walking a few steps, Qin Wuyang felt that his legs were uncontrollably weak.

Facing a pair of eyes, looking at many middle-aged men wearing Qin State official uniforms, these Qin State officials who had never met before, Qin Wuyang became more and more nervous, and sweat began to appear on his forehead.

If yes. Give Qin Wuyang another chance, Qin Wuyang will not agree to Yan Dan whatever he says. If Qin Wuyang was even given another choice, he would be outside the palace, and Qin Wuyang would say that he would not step into this palace with Jing Ke.

It wasn't until he felt Jing Ke in front of him stop that Qin Wuyang came back to his senses, and then stood on Jing Ke's side with a pale face.

"Yan envoy Jing Ke, meet King Qin!" Jing Ke put the wooden box on the ground and took the lead in saluting Yingzheng in the main hall.

When Jing Ke was compiling the ceremony, Qin Wuyang was holding the cloth in both hands, and finally raised it to look at King Qin Yingzheng above the main hall.

And when he saw King Yingzheng of Qin in a black royal robe, Qin Wuyang suddenly panicked for no reason, and when he saw Yingzheng's deep eyes, Qin Wuyang looked at each other for a moment, but lowered his head in fear.

At this moment, Qin Wuyang's face turned pale. Thinking that he was going to assassinate King Yingzheng of Qin later, Qin Wuyang's heart became more and more flustered, his legs became weaker, and his hands began to tremble a little.

Thinking that I would die later! Suddenly, Qin Wuyang thought of the people he had killed at the beginning, the appearance of those people who had died, and Qin Wuyang suddenly became afraid.

Qin Wuyang began to regret it. He didn't want to be buried in the loess like those dead people, he hadn't had enough, he wanted to hunt on horseback, he wanted to go into the restaurant to have fun, he wanted to feel the admiration of others and the fear of others.

He doesn't want to die!! Thinking of this, Qin Wuyang's head turned red, and he couldn't help but want to cry.

Fortunately, because his face was swollen by Bai Yan with a wooden sword before, Qin Wuyang didn't let people see anything abnormal.

In the main hall, Ying Zheng saw Jing Ke, looked at the wooden box next to Jing Ke's feet, and then looked at the layout in the hand of the young deputy envoy on the side, full of excitement.

"Yan envoy is coming, what is the so-called matter?" Ying Zheng looked at Jing Ke and asked. Although Meng Jia had already told the origin of the envoys of the Yan Kingdom yesterday, and also speculated on the thoughts of the King of Yan, but now Yingzheng still had to ask the two envoys of the Yan Kingdom in person.

And under the gaze of hundreds of civil and military officials, Jing Ke saluted Ying Zheng.

"My king, because of the majesty of the king, my king no longer dares to send the army of Yan to resist the king's soldiers, and I would like the whole of Yan to return to the Qin State, be the courtiers of the Qin State, and pay taxes as if they were directly under the county office! May the king be gracious and grant my king the ability to guard the temple of the previous king! For this reason, my king specially offered Yan Di and the head of Fan Yuzhi, a rebel general of the Qin State. As an envoy of the Yan Kingdom, Jing Ke looked at Yingzheng in the main hall and said sincerely.

If this sentence came from someone else, it would be fine, and Jing Ke, who was the envoy of Yan State, said these words in person, even Ying Zheng couldn't help but look happy and proud.

This is an unsubtle bluntness, bluntly saying that he Yan State is willing to surrender to Qin State. In front of hundreds of civil and military officials, it is tantamount to announcing to the world and surrendering to him!

"Good! Yan envoy and bring the map up! Ying Zheng heard Jing Ke's request, and agreed without the slightest hesitation, if King Yan only asked to worship the temple, why not.

After all, Wei Guo was not the same before, he was demoted to a king, but he can still worship Wei Guozong Temple. 緖

"King Xie!" When Jing Ke heard Ying Zheng's words, he bowed his head and saluted, his eyes staring. Just as Jing Ke picked up the wooden box on the ground and walked towards Yingzheng in the main hall with Qin Wuyang, he suddenly heard some noisy sounds in the main hall.

"Look why the envoy is motionless, and why his hands are shaking all the time!"

"That's right! Why did the envoy look scared with his head down? Why is that? The voices of many civil and military officials whispering came into Jing Ke's ears, Jing Ke turned his head, and only then did he notice Qin Wuyang's abnormality.

Seeing Qin Wuyang's hand holding the map, he kept trembling, Jing Ke's pupils shrank, and a bad premonition appeared in his heart.

Jing Ke, who has traveled all over the world and seen countless scenes, looked at Qin Wuyang's appearance, where he didn't know, Qin Wuyang was afraid!

!!! At this moment, Jing Ke's face couldn't help but turn white. However, seeing Qin Wuyang with his head down, not looking at him at all, Jing Ke couldn't help but feel a trace of despair in his heart.

Why did Qin Wuyang, at this time, have already arrived at the Xianyang Palace, but he is afraid!! Thinking that according to the plan, Qin Wuyang assassinated Ying Zheng, and he assassinated Bai Yan.

Jing Ke was clear. Qin Wuyang, who was trembling with his head in front of him, was no longer reliable, he could only rely on himself, and now Yingzheng and Bai Yan, he had to kill one of these two people to repay Gongzi Dan's kindness.

Is it Ying Zheng or Bai Yan? Between thoughts. Jing Ke heard the voice of Ying Zheng asking from the main hall.

"Why is the deputy envoy of the Yan Kingdom reluctant to step forward?" Jing Ke heard Ying Zheng's inquiry, glanced at Qin Wuyang, who was still with his head down and motionless, his eyes showed a touch of complete disappointment, and in a moment of breath, he turned his head to look at Ying Zheng.

"The king, the deputy envoy originally belonged to the barbarian land, before in Hangu Pass, he tried with General Bai, and was stunned by General Bai with a wooden sword, and he was already afraid when he saw that there was such a powerful general in the Qin State, and now he saw with his own eyes that even a powerful general like General Bai was willing to be the minister of the king, and the king was so majestic, so he was terrified for a while, hoping that the king could forgive him!" Jing Ke held the wooden box and said to Ying Zheng, attributing Qin Wuyang's fear to Bai Yan and Ying Zheng.

Looking at Yingzheng, who was now subjugated by Yan State and happy, Jing Ke also quietly praised the strength of Qin State, and praised even a powerful general like General Bai for being willing to be Yingzheng's courtier.

Inside the main hall. Jing Ke's voice fell. In the main hall, the civil and military officials who didn't know about Hangu Pass looked at Qin Wuyang's cheeks in amazement, and then turned their heads in astonishment, looking at Bai Yan, who was young in official uniforms.

The blue and swollen face of the deputy envoy of the emotional Yan country was hit by you Bai Yan!! Inside the main hall. Hu Lao, Mao Jiao and the others couldn't help but glance at each other, and then looked at Bai Yan with a strange expression, why didn't they hear Bai Yan say this.

Wei Qiang and Meng Tian looked at Bai Yan blankly, as if they didn't expect Bai Yan, who had always been elegant and easy-going in their eyes, to do such a thing blatantly.

When Bai Yu saw the appearance of the deputy envoy of Yan Guo, he turned his head and gave Bai Yan an approving look, as if to say, 'You kid, you are good'!

Among the civil officials, Tai Jing and Le Shang, these officials, looked at Bai Yan with a confused expression, looked at Qin Wuyang's cheeks, and couldn't help but take a cool breath.

So ruthless! Even Ying Zheng in the main hall, after listening to Jing Ke's explanation, couldn't help but show a crying and laughing expression, and then looked at His Royal Highness, Bai Yan, who had been sitting honestly on his knees since the last dynasty.

As a party to Bai Yan, he felt that everyone's eyes were looking at him, looking left and right.

Then seeing Ying Zheng's gaze, Bai Yan glanced at Jing Ke, and then put on his official uniform, and slowly got up under the gaze of all the officials.
