In the study room of the palace, due to the news of Yi Shui, the ministers of the original dynasty were all in about an hour, and all of them were summoned into the palace by Ying Zheng and gathered in the study.

Bai Yan is still helping Yingzheng deal with the bamboo silk.

And next to the huge and vast map in the middle of the study, Li Si, Wei Yu, Changping Jun, Kui Xiang and others, all whispered to each other, and at this moment, looking at the busy young figures next to the rows of wooden shelves in the innermost part of the study, the eyes of many ministers were different.

Ying Zheng only got up after handling a roll of bamboo slips.

Bai Yan waited for Ying Zheng to leave, then came to the wooden table, picked up the bamboo slips that Ying Zheng placed on the wooden table, and walked towards the other wooden frames.

By the time Bai Yan came to Ying Zheng's side, Ying Zheng had already talked with Li Si and the others, pointing to the location of Yi Shui on the map, and talking for a long time.

And through observation, Bai Yan gradually heard the current situation of Yishui.

The two generals, Wang Jian and Xin Sheng, had already led the Qin army to Yishui, and the Yan State also gathered the Yan army in Yishui with all its strength, preparing to resist the attack of the Qin army.

"Your Majesty, according to the news received by Weichen, the King of Wei suddenly contracted a serious illness and was sick in bed, it is absolutely impossible for Wei to send troops, and the enemy army in Yishui at this moment, except for Yan, should be the army of Zhao Jia on behalf of the land."

Wei Yu looked at Ying Zheng.

Li Si, Kui Xiang and the others looked at the map, and then looked at Zhao Di's location.

The word Zhao Jia is not unfamiliar to these ministers, after all, when the Qin State besieged Handan, Zhao Jia led most of the Zhao clansmen to leave Handan and flee to Daidi.

"Zhao Jia! However, the land of a county dares to stop the soldiers of my Qin State! Arrogance!"

Ying Zheng listened to Wei Yi's words, looked at the map, and made a faint comment.

"Is there any news from the direction of the Huns?"

Ying Zheng's gaze moved away from Yi Shui's position and turned to look at the vast territory north of Daidi.

Ying Zheng knows that now that the Qi State is not moving, the King of Chu and the King of Wei are all sick in bed, and the biggest threat to Qin's destruction of Yan is that only the Xiongnu, Donghu, and Fuyu in the north are left with those nomadic tribes, and once those tribes want to take the opportunity to deal with Qin, whether it is to unite Yan or go south, it is quite a threat to Qin.

"Back to the king, there is no for the time being, the minister has already ordered someone to send an envoy to the Yue clan to persuade the Yue clan to see the Xiongnu going south, so he took the opportunity to send troops to attack the Xiongnu!"

Li Si saluted Ying Zhengji.

Ying Zheng nodded when he heard this.

Bai Yan couldn't help but glance at Li Si, then looked at the situation on the map and sighed.

Qin Annihilation Yan, although it can be imagined that what worries Qin is not the Central Plains countries, but the Xiongnu and Donghu in the north, and in the end, what can help Qin State threaten the Xiongnu is precisely the Yueshi who has been a mortal enemy of Qin for hundreds of years.

"Your Majesty, the envoy Tian Ding outside the palace asks to see you!"

A eunuch bent over, slowly walked into the study, and came to Ying Zheng's side to report.

When Ying Zheng heard the eunuch's words, he turned his head in surprise and looked at the eunuch, and after a few breaths, he looked at Bai Yan with a chuckle on the corner of his mouth.

"Bai Yan, you go to entertain Tian Ding first, and after the widow has discussed the matter, then go to see Tian Ding!"

Ying Zheng said, and after finishing speaking, he continued to look at the map.

Changping Jun, Kui Zheng, Li Si and others, when they heard Ying Zheng's words, they all looked at Bai Yan, if there was still a trace of permission before, then at this moment, with Ying Zheng's words, Li Si and the others were already convinced that Ying Zheng was indeed going to promote Bai Yan to Zhongchang.

After all, no matter what Bai Yan did at this moment, or Ying Zheng's arrangements, they were all the affairs of the Zhongchang servant.

"No!"

Bai Yan was a little surprised, but looking at Ying Zheng's side face, he hurriedly bowed his hand, took two steps back, turned around and walked with the eunuch towards the outside of the study.

A moment later.

Next to the main hall of Xianyang Palace, Tian Ding followed the eunuch and came all the way to the inner hall.

Whether it is Qin, Chuqi, Wei Yan, or the destroyed Korea and Zhao States, in their palaces, there will be an inner hall, which is used in the early dynasties, and another place to prepare for emergencies, such as some envoys of other countries or ministers in the court, can only inform the king, and cannot let the hundred officials know

Take it to the inner sanctum.

Tian Ding glanced at the two maids outside the door, then walked through them, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw that the young Bai Yan was already waiting for him.

Looking at Bai Yan, who was dressed in the official uniform of the Qin State, Tian Ding's eyes were complicated.

"Bai Yan, I've seen Lord Tian!"

Bai Yan saluted to Tian Dingji.

"General White!"

Tian Dingye returned the favor.

Although they haven't seen each other for a few days, when they meet again, their eyes are quite complicated, Tian Ding calculates Bai Yan, Bai Yan also calculates Tian Ding, their positions are different, and they both know each other's thoughts.

The eunuch who led Tian Dinglai saluted Bai Yanji, and then slowly retreated.

Bai Yan looked at the back of the eunuch leaving, and turned to look at Tian Ding.

"The Qin State has sent troops to the Yan Kingdom, and the king is dealing with important matters, so Lord Tian will wait here for a while!"

Bai Yan said.

Tian Ding nodded, and as Bai Yan's words fell, Tian Ding glanced at the Xianyang inner hall in front of him, and then looked at Bai Yan.

"Tian Ding didn't expect that General Bai was entrusted with a heavy task by King Qin at a young age, and he would not be able to get in his pocket in the future!"

Tian Ding sighed.

"The king is kind, Bai Yan is still young, acting recklessly, don't say that he is in and out of the generals, that is, for the officials of a place, they all have more than enough strength but not enough, the king will not give up, Bai Yan is lucky, what is there to say."

Bai Yan raised his hand and saluted Tian Ding slowly, revealing humility everywhere in his words and demeanor.

What is humble, modest and deferential, mostly used for juniors to elders, Bai Yan's attitude is obviously not standing in the position of official position, and his words directly say that his ability is not good, all relying on the grace of Yingzheng, he is willing to promote him, a junior in the court.

"General Bai is too humble!"

Tian Ding looked at Bai Yan, who did not have the slightest self-satisfaction, and his tentative actions turned into a sigh in his heart.

Young and talented people, Tian Ding has seen it, but he can be like the young man in front of him, a person who is not proud of his talents, Tian Ding has lived so long, and he has never seen the second one.

is like Xunzhou at the beginning, his words are humble, but his eyes are quite proud, which can't hide from Tian Ding's eyes.

Not to mention.

At that time, Xunzhou was much older than the teenager in front of him!

In the inner hall, Tian Ding turned his head and looked at the exaggerated wooden window on the side, looking at the scenery outside.

"I heard that the little girl had handed over her deceased mother's belongings to General Bai before, I wonder if General Bai can take it with her?"

As Tian Ding spoke, he looked at Bai Yan.

Then, under Tian Ding's gaze, Bai Yan nodded and took out the jade pendant that he had been carrying on his body from his official uniform.

"Miss Tian gave this thing to Bai Yan, before the gift, Miss Tian had the origin of the jade pendant, and asked Bai Yan to keep it, so Bai Yan never let this thing leave."

As Bai Yan spoke, he looked at the jade pendant in his hand.

Looking at this jade pendant that has followed him for more than two years and helped him a lot, Bai Yan was full of souvenirs, recalling that when he was in Linzi, Tian Feiyan turned around and squatted, took it out of his clothes and handed it to himself, and this jade pendant never left him.

No matter where it is, whether it is Lantian training or going to the battlefield.

After sighing in his heart, Bai Yan looked up at Tian Ding, he would not hide the matter of the jade pendant from Tian Ding, nor would he find a reason not to bring it with him, because he had always cared about what Tian Feiyan gave him at this time.

"Since the little girl gave it to General Bai, Tian Ding won't say more, this thing is one of the few things that his deceased wife gave to the little girl, and I hope General Bai won't throw it away in the future!"

Tian Ding looked at the jade pendant, and then looked at the young man's cheeks with a frank face, and finally did not take back the jade pendant.

In fact, before he came, even before he spoke, Tian Ding still had the idea of getting back his deceased wife's jade pendant, but looking at the frank and swinging young man standing in front of him with the jade pendant, Tian Ding hesitated.

Thinking back to the words of Xunzhou and Lin Anshun in Luoyin City, looking at the young man in front of him who had been taken by Yingzheng's side, Tian Ding thought about it, and finally decided not to take back the jade pendant.

"Bai Yan is presumptuous, can Lord Tian tell Bai Yan something about Mrs. Tian and Miss Tian?

」

Bai Yan saw Tian Ding open his mouth to ask back the jade pendant, and he was also relieved in his heart, after putting the jade pendant away, he looked at Tian Ding who was looking sideways at the scenery outside the window, hesitated for a few breaths, and asked softly.

"General Bai is the general of the Qin State, a disciple of the Bai family, why do you ask about these trivial matters?"

Tian Ding heard Bai Yan's words, glanced at Bai Yan, turned his head and continued to look out the window, reminding him that Bai Yan's question was meaningless, Bai Yan was a Qin person, a disciple of the Bai family, and a general of the Qin State.

"I heard~!"

Bai Yan was about to speak, when there was movement outside the inner hall.

Seeing this, both Bai Yan and Tian Ding stopped talking.

"Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty!!"

As the voices of the two maids outside the door sounded, Ying Zheng appeared in front of Bai Yan and Tian Ding and walked into the study.

"Your Majesty!"

Bai Yan raised his hand and saluted Yingzheng.

"Excuse me!"

Ying Zheng walked past Bai Yan, and then went to the throne in the inner hall.

"Qi envoy Tian Ding, I have seen King Qin!"

Tian Ding faced Yingzheng at this time and slowly saluted.

"The envoy asks to see the widow today, but is there something wrong?"

Ying Zheng looked at Tian Ding, pretended to be curious and asked, looking at Tian Ding with straight eyes.

When Tian Ding saw Ying Zheng's eyes, he didn't do anything, but chuckled.

"Tian Ding heard that an assassin had assassinated General Bai last night, so he was worried about the safety of King Qin, so he came to the palace to ask to see King Qin!"

Tian Ding said to Ying Zheng.

"But there is a trouble with the Rauzi envoy!"

Ying Zheng looked at Tian Ding and said with a smile.

"The widow has ordered all the officials in Xianyang to search the city strictly, so there is no need to worry! It won't take long to find out who the Assassin is."

Ying Zheng looked at Tian Ding, and Tian Ding also looked at Ying Zheng.

As Ying Zheng's words fell, Tian Ding put away his smile and saluted Ying Zheng with a serious face.

"Tian Ding is not worried that the assassins are plotting against Tian Ding, but he is worried about the dignified Qin State Xianyang, someone dares to assassinate General Bai, and he also took advantage of the night to do it when General Bai left the palace."

As Tian Ding spoke, he looked up at Ying Zheng.

"The person who can do this must be in a position of power in the Qin State, and his power is deep-rooted!"

Tian Ding looked at Ying Zheng word by word and said.

Bai Yan stood aside, listening to Tian Ding's words, and looked at Tian Ding quietly, a little surprised that Tian Ding would react so quickly.

However, Bai Yan is not worried about Tian Ding's awakening, it doesn't matter if Tian Ding guesses this matter or not, the important thing is the result, Tian Ding can't leave the Qin State, at least at the moment, without Yingzheng's permission, Tian Ding must not leave Xianyang without permission.

"What does the envoy want to say to the widow this time?"

Ying Zheng looked at Tian Ding, also put away his smile, and asked.

To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that the Qin State couldn't make enemies with the Qin State at the moment, Ying Zheng would no longer care about Tian Ding's identity at all.

"King Qin, don't misunderstand, what the minister said today is not to provoke, but to worry, I am worried that the next person in the Qin State to assassinate the King of Qin is probably not Yan Dan, but the Qin people! Minister of Qin!"

Tian Ding saw that Yingzheng's eyes were already a little angry, and he did not panic, but said the purpose of this trip.

"Wang Qian? What do you mean?"

When Ying Zheng heard Tian Ding's words, he looked at Tian Ding meaningfully, a little surprised, and curious about what Tian Ding wanted to say.

"Before, General Teng led his troops to destroy Han, and Han was only a county, but I heard that General Teng's prestige in the Qin State was unparalleled for a while, why?"

As Tian Ding spoke, he carried one hand on his back and raised the other, like a lobbyist, telling his heart while bowing his head and walking slowly.

"Without him, it's just the destruction of the country!"

Tian Ding said this, stopped, and looked at Yingzheng.

"What is the destruction of the country, the destruction of the society of a country, the destruction of the temples of a country, the capture of the king of a country, and the one who did this, in the former Qin State, there were several people who destroyed the country

What? Looking at the Shang Dynasty and the like, and looking at the white generation who dominated the world in the past, there has not been any act of destroying the country!"

Tian Ding's words sounded loudly in the inner hall.

Ying Zheng and Bai Yan did not interrupt, but continued to look at Tian Ding and continue.

"Tian Ding dares to ask the King of Qin, as far as the Qin State is concerned, which is stronger or weaker than the work of destroying the country and the work of destroying the Six Kingdoms in the past?"

Tian Ding looked at Ying Zheng.

Ying Zheng heard Tian Ding's words, thought for a while, and slowly shook his head.

"It's all due to Qin, not the same!"

Ying Zheng said softly, because of being the King of Qin, Ying Zheng naturally would not be biased to that side, if this is spread out, it will inevitably have an impact on the generals in the court in the future.

Therefore, for Tian Ding's words, Yingzheng chose not to respond steadily.

However, to Ying Zheng's surprise, Tian Ding was not surprised at all when he heard his answer, but laughed.

"Then dare to ask King Qin, what if it is the merit of destroying the two countries?"

Tian Ding looked at Ying Zheng and asked slowly again.

Tian Ding's words fell, and Ying Zheng looked at Tian Ding with silent eyes.

"What does this mean?"

Ying Zheng's face had changed a little, but looking at Tian Ding, he still asked lightly.

Tian Ding naturally knew what his actions represented, but since Tian Ding came to Yingzheng, he would naturally not be timid.

"General Teng is just leading the Qin army to destroy the land of a county, and there is still such a momentum, then Korea is in the Zhao State, which is stronger and which is weaker, compared to the king's heart, it must be clear, now, the Zhao State, which has defeated the Qin State several times before, was destroyed by Wang Qian, dare to ask the King of Qin, if it is the Yan State, and then Wang Jian is destroyed, Wang Qian's merit can overshadow Bai Qi's merit, and the death of Bai Qi in the past, the King of Qin is magnanimous, then Wang Jian !!! Can you ~ forget?"

Tian Ding said and spoke, and when he said the back, not only did he increase his speaking speed, but he also looked indignant.

in the inner sanctum.

Tian Ding's voice disappeared, but his words not only reached Bai Yan and Ying Zheng's ears, but even the eunuchs who served Ying Zheng and the maids outside the door could hear them clearly.

The eunuchs and maids lowered their heads one after another, motionless, unable to breathe, and their foreheads were already full of sweat.

As long as you don't live in the deep mountains and old forests, basically you are not only familiar with Bai Qi's affairs, but also the people of the whole world, who have heard that Bai Qi led the troops for the Qin State back then, crisscrossed the battlefield, and made great achievements, but the result was that he was given death by King Zhaoxiang.

This matter has already spread all over the world and is well known to the world.

Hearing the words in the inner sanctum, the eunuchs and maids were terrified.

"Are Qi envoys sowing discord?"

After a long time, Ying Zheng's voice sounded slowly.

And looking down the door, unexpectedly, Ying Zheng was not angry because of Tian Ding's words, and his face was still the same at the beginning.

"Back to King Qin, Tian Ding said that it was not Tian Ding who provoked it, but Tian Ding was worried about the safety of King Qin, and now that Qi and Qin are on good terms, Tian Ding naturally hopes that King Qin is well, otherwise there will be turmoil and changes in the relationship between Qi and Qin!"

Tian Ding said to Ying Zheng.

After the ceremony, Tian Ding looked at Yingzheng.

"King Qin, listen to Tian Ding's words, if it was thirty years ago, Bai Qi would have led the troops outside! King Zhaoxiang's decree may not end well with the death of Bai Qi!"

After Tian Ding finished speaking, he shook his head.

During the whole process, Tian Ding was reminding Ying Zheng to beware of Wang Jian and the Wang family, in case Wang Jian supported his troops to stand on his own and even attacked Qin in turn, and even deliberately sent assassins to assassinate Ying Zheng, this kind of thing is not uncommon in all countries, and even in Qin State, when Hu Zaibai died shortly after, Fan Ju's benefactor Zheng Ping'an led 20,000 Qin troops to surrender to Zhao State.

"There are Lao Qi envoys worried, for the widows, General Wang Jian is the pillar of the Qin State, and the Wang family is a generation of Qin generals, the widows are convinced, the Qi envoys don't have to worry!"

Ying Zheng looked at Tian Ding's appearance, and said loudly and heartily, in his words, he trusted Wang Jian and the Wang family.

Seeing this, Tian Ding's eyes showed a look of helplessness.

"King Qin

In this way, Tian Ding lost his words, today he said this, King Qin didn't believe it, Tian Ding naturally had nothing to say, and now that he saw that King Qin was fine, Tian Ding retired first!"

Tian Ding bowed to Ying Zheng, and after the salute, he looked at Ying Zheng who was speechless, turned around and walked towards the outside of the inner hall.

The eunuch who was waiting outside the main hall saw Tian Ding and hurriedly led Tian Ding.

in the inner sanctum.

In an instant, Bai Yan and Yingzheng were left.

"That Tian Ding, but he tried his best to separate the widow from you, and used means three times and twice!"

Ying Zheng got up and said to Bai Yan.

Bai Yan, who had been silent just now, heard Ying Zheng's words at this time, and hurriedly bowed.

Tian Ding's purpose today seems to be aimed at Wang Jian and the Wang family, but in fact, it is to separate him from Yingzheng, Bai Yan knows that if he is really a disciple of the Bai family, Tian Ding said those words to his face, although he did not point at him Bai Yan, but the words were reminding him and Yingzheng how Bai Qi died.

This is to sow discord in person, if you change to any of the Bai family's disciples, I am afraid that Fang Cai will be anxious, so that Tian Ding's emotions will be swayed, and even Ying Zheng's heart will inevitably have a little invisible estrangement.

"If it weren't for your request for the widow, the widow would really want to tell Tian Dingru in person!"

Before Ying Zheng left, he looked at Bai Yan and said with a smile.

"King Xie concealed it for his ministers!"

Bai Yan said to Ying Zheng.

"One day the widow will tell him with his own mouth!"

Ying Zheng walked past Bai Yan while he was talking, and he was also telling Bai Yan in disguise not to disappoint Ying Zheng in the future.

Facing Bai Yan, who was making a ceremony for Ying Zheng, he watched Ying Zheng leave, and also left, where was there still a lot of bamboo silk in the study that had not been dealt with properly, and he naturally couldn't go back now.

But after leaving the inner sanctum.

Bai Yan followed behind Yingzheng, and when he walked on the main hall, he turned his head and glanced at the empty gate of the main hall, the direction where Tian Ding left.

To be honest, if Bai Yan was not very afraid of Tian Ding because he was not a child of the Bai family before, then seeing Tian Ding's actions to provoke Yingzheng's anger in spite of it made Bai Yan clearly understand why so many people in the Qin State were afraid of Tian Ding, even if this was the Qin State, not the Qi State.

Although he is not a child of the Bai family, Fang Cai Tian Ding's act of sowing discord did not make his relationship with Ying Zheng flawed.

But Bai Yan had a vague premonition.

Tian Ding's words have already had some impact on Ying Zheng and Wang Qian, although they are minimal, but they are real.

Come to think of it.

Bai Yan couldn't help but worry when he thought that one day Tian Ding would know his true identity.
