It dawned on me at this point!

Meng Tian, who was fascinated by the audience, said, "I see! It's just ......" he didn't say the latter words.

Wang Jian and I glanced at each other and did not speak.

"So it seems that the king wants to destroy the Yan Kingdom first, so how did General Meng, how did you return to Xianyang from the front line of the Yan Kingdom?"

"National teacher, you still don't know? The Yan State has sent envoys to Xianyang to surrender to the king, and brought the head of Huan Qi and the map of the area around the governor of the Yan State, they only hope to defend the ancestral temple, and the king will soon summon the envoys of the Yan State"

I can only smile bitterly, no one in the entire court told me about such a big event, it seems that I am still an alternative in the eyes of these Qin State officials!

After sending Wang Jian and Meng Tian away, Kesma and Yi Fazhe walked out of the inner room.

"When the Prime Minister heard Meng Tian say this, there is a question that I don't understand," Kersma said to me.

"What you want to ask is what Meng Tian wanted to ask just now, but he didn't say it, you want to ask King Yingzheng of Qin why he treated Prince Yan Dan like that?" I looked at the flowers in the courtyard in the distance and sighed, and then said: "This King Qin's scheming is too deep, he and Prince Dan are friends in trouble, of course he snubbed Prince Dan on purpose, he only deliberately snubbed him, so that he couldn't bear it anymore, Prince Dan will try to escape, so that he has an excuse and reason to hunt him down, even if he lets him escape, it will be justified to destroy Yan in the future, and there will be no worries!" ”

"Immediately form two teams of our people who can use throwing knives, and you will be the captains of each team, and take turns to guard our settlements."

"Isn't there Zhao Gao in the settlement?!" Yi Fazhe asked me.

I didn't speak, and I felt an inexplicable panic in my heart, I really didn't know if it was right or wrong for me to choose to help this Ying Zheng.

Within two days, I really received a summons from Ying Zheng, asking me to enter the palace the next day, saying that I was in the main hall of Xianyang Palace to meet the envoys of Yan State.

The next morning, I changed into court clothes, went to Xianyang Palace, and when I entered the main hall, I saw that many people had come, and the King of Qin put down a grand ceremony to welcome the envoy of Yan State, which shows that he attaches great importance to this matter. After a while, Yingzheng was dressed in a black nine-dragon robe, wearing a crown, and a white jade around his waist and took him in, and after the ministers gave him a big salute, the attendants outside the hall shouted loudly: "The envoy of the Yan Kingdom is here"

It didn't take long to see two people walking in from outside the main hall, and the person walking in front of him was in a green robe without a crown, holding a vermilion wooden box in both hands, this person should be Jing Ke. The box he was holding must have contained Huan Qi's head. Behind Jing Ke was a tall man, holding a long wooden box, which I think should be the map of the governor of Yan Kingdom. It seems that this Yan monarch has completely given up resistance. This Yan Guojun didn't know what to think, before Zhao Guo died, he didn't have a life to fight with Zhao Guo, but he didn't take it into account at all, if it wasn't for Zhao Guo blocking Qin Guo for him in front, would he Yan Guo have a life? Now it's okay, as soon as Zhao Guo dies, it will be his turn immediately.

The two of them walked respectfully to the steps in front of the throne of Yingzheng under the gaze of the ministers of civil and military affairs in the palace. The two immediately knelt on the ground, Jing Ke held the wooden box high with both hands and said: "The little king of the northern Yan Kingdom specially ordered his subordinate Jing Ke to present the head of the sinner Huan Qi and the map of the governor of the Yan Kingdom to the King of Qin to show his obedience!" ”

Ying Zheng sat on the throne and nodded again and again, with a smile on his face.

I'm glad in my heart, after all, it's a good thing for the people to have less fighting. Although it is useless for this Yan State to resist, there are casualties in front of both armies, that is certain.

I was thinking about it, when I suddenly saw that the long box held by the person behind me was trembling slightly, and his face changed, and he seemed to be very nervous. At this time, Jing Ke turned around and smiled at Qin Wuyang, stepped forward to apologize to King Qin for him, and said: "The barbarians in the northern barbarian region have not met the Son of Heaven, so they are very afraid, and I hope that the king will forgive him a little so that he can complete his mission." King Qin said to Jing Ke: "It's okay! Rise up, all of you. Qin Wuyang is afraid, then you can take the map he took and present it! ”

I suddenly felt something was wrong in my heart, why was the person named Qin Wuyang so nervous? As envoys of the Yan State, they came to the Qin State to ask for surrender and sacrifice, and the Qin State would definitely treat them well, and there would be rich rewards! Why was he so nervous? It is obviously a pretext to say that he is a barbarian and has never seen a big scene, this King Yan sent two envoys all the way to choose a person who has never seen the world, is he not afraid of making the King of Qin unhappy!

Thinking of this, I knew something was wrong, at this time, Jing Ke took the map and had already walked up the steps to give it to King Qin, and I saw that he had put the map on the imperial case in front of Ying Zheng and was opening the map.

I shouted, "Be careful, my lord, he's an assassin!" ”

But it was too late, at this time, the map in front of Ying Zheng had been fully opened, revealing a dagger wrapped in the map, Jing Ke grabbed King Qin's sleeve with his left hand, and stabbed King Qin with a dagger in his right hand. Ying Zheng suddenly encountered such a change, and fell to the ground screaming in fright, and his hands fluttered wildly to block the dagger that Jing Ke stabbed over. Jing Ke saw that the blow missed, and stabbed Ying Zheng with a dagger, Ying Zheng tore off his sleeve in a panic, and ran in a circle around the big pillar next to the throne, and Jing Ke chased after him. King Qin wanted to pull out his sword as he ran, but the sword was too long, and he couldn't pull it out in a panic.

I was so anxious that I didn't know what to do for a while.

The ministers of the palace were also frightened, it happened so suddenly, and everyone lost their normalcy. According to the law of the Qin State, the courtiers who served in the palace were not allowed to carry weapons; The guards, who were armed with weapons, stood in a line at the foot of the palace steps, and could not go up to the palace without the king's orders.

King Qin was still running around the pillar, panicked and unable to draw his long sword.

Jing Ke held a dagger in hot pursuit, has already cut his robe several cuts, I shouted loudly: "The king put the sword on his back, put the sword on his back and then pull it out" Ying Zheng heard my shout and moved the sword to his back, and sure enough, he pulled out the long sword, and in a hurry, he swung his sword at Jing Ke and slashed indiscriminately, one of the swords hit Jing Ke's thigh, Jing Ke screamed and fell to the ground. Ying Zheng saw that he was about to stab him when he turned around with the long sword, but he didn't expect Jing Ke to throw the dagger in his hand as a dart in Ying Zheng's face, this throw Jing Ke used ten percent of his strength, the dagger flew straight to Ying Zheng's façade, the distance was too close Ying Zheng couldn't hide, and then he screamed and closed his eyes.

Just listened to the ding, when the tip of the dagger was about to touch Ying Zheng's eyelids, he was shot away by a blue light, and the screams in the hall continued, Ying Zheng slowly opened his eyes, only to see a flying knife with a blue light on the tail swaying up and down and floating in front of him, and the dagger shot by Jing Ke had fallen to the ground not far away, and the dagger flashed with a faint blue light, and he knew that it was poisoned at a glance.

The guards rushed up and stabbed Jing Ke and Qin Wuyang into hedgehogs, and Jing Ke spat blood in his mouth before he died: "Yingzheng!" It's not God bless you that things don't work out! It's because I wanted to capture you alive to repay Prince Yan's kindness! ”

I stepped forward and looked at Jing Ke and Qin Wuyang, who were covered in blood, and felt a lot of emotion in my heart, is this person a hero or a fool? Just for the sake of Dan, the prince of Yan Kingdom, who gave him a good face for a few days, he abandoned his family and ran to Qin State to die? Even if he succeeds in assassination, the world will be in constant turmoil from now on, and he doesn't know how many people will become dry bones in the grave, can't he think of it?

I grabbed the throwing knife, tucked it up my sleeve, and said, "The king is all right!" ”

Ying Zheng nodded in shock, speechless for a long time.
