In Xianyang Palace, the atmosphere is depressing and serious.

The towering walls of the temple exuded a deep and oppressive aura from all directions.

In the hall, Ying Zheng was dressed in a black and gold dragon robe, wearing a crown on his head, sitting on his seat, his eyes calmly looked at the Jing Ke in front of him who had stabbed a sword with his life, his black hair turned white in an instant, and his face was old.

Call~

The small wooden sword on his chest slowly returned to the collar.

Jing Ke's body also hung down weakly.

At this time, the Six Swords Slave had time to appear in front of Ying Zheng and firmly surrounded Ying Zheng behind him.

Between the pillars of the hall not far from Yingzheng's feet, the officials shouted in panic:

"Escort!"

"Escort the driver!"

For a while, thousands of Qin King guards rushed in outside the palace, as well as masters from all walks of life, and blocked the eight gates of the Qin Palace.

Even, all the ministers in the entire Qin country were separated from Yingzheng.

I'm afraid that there will be other assassins among the ministers.

Ying Zheng looked at Wei Gai Nie and bowed his head slightly, his hair covered his face, and half-bent to Jing Ke, who was kneeling in front of him with white hair.

Jing Ke seemed to have the last trace of vitality left, and said something to Gai Nie.

Moment.

Ying Zheng noticed that Gai Nie's expression was slightly moved.

A look of grief appeared on his face.

"Kill the assassin quickly!" The army that rushed in was about to rush up with a spear and stab into Jing Ke's body, who was half-kneeling there.

"That's enough, stand down."

Ying Zheng said coldly:

"Everyone is dead, what's the use of killing a corpse?"

There are only two things he wants to know now.

One, why did Jing Ke come to assassinate him?

Second, what did Jing Ke say to Gai Nie before he died?

Second question.

He wanted to know the answer now.

"Gainie? What did he say to you before he died? Ying Zheng asked calmly.

Gai Nie silently flattened the white-haired Jing Ke's body and said, "He said that he lost to us again." ”

Ying Zheng's heart moved slightly, as if he believed it or not, and said calmly: "Why did he come to assassinate me?" ”

At this time, the ministers in the palace also hurriedly racked their brains.

Zhao Gao, who was dressed in a fishy robe, stood not far from Ying Zheng, looking at the fragments of the sword in front of Jing Ke and Ying Zheng, as well as the corpse of Fan Yu in Jing Ke's exploding wooden plate, and said in a condensed voice: "This sword seems to be the remnant rainbow that ranks second in the windbeard sword spectrum, and the remnant rainbow is said to be made for the mother of Mrs. Xu of Zhao Guoren, could it be that Jing Ke was instructed by the remnants of Zhao Guo?" ”

Zhao Guo? Handan?

Ying Zheng looked at Jing Ke's corpse and did think of a possibility.

Correct.

At this time, outside the main hall, a voice came:

"The Yin and Yang Family Moon God has something to see His Majesty."

Ying Zheng's face was expressionless.

No one knew that after he came back from the ghost gate, his mood and tone at the moment did not fluctuate, and he said:

"Xuan."

The moon god came from outside the temple, still the same day, but there were more armor soldiers than that day, and when they reached the temple, they could not move forward, and three of the six sword slaves arrived in front of her in an instant, signaling that it was best to stand only here.

The moon god stood where he was.

Ying Zheng looked down from above, and his voice was indifferent:

"The widow has just been assassinated, and the Yin and Yang family will come to see me later, is it a coincidence?"

In a word.

All the murderous aura above the entire hall was rolling and oppressed on the moon god, unlike the last time, this time the moon god was not only oppressed by thousands of armor warriors, but even felt the sharp gaze of the six sword slaves and even Gai Nie.

There was a slight wave in my heart, and I couldn't be calmer anymore.

The face moved.

Bow your head and say in a whisper:

"Back to Your Majesty, it was because the Yin and Yang family had just seen a white rainbow running through the sun, and then I saw the qi of the Yan Kingdom, like a heavenly sword, coming from the east, as if it was about to stab under the neck of the black dragon that was transformed by the qi of the Qin State, and the moon god was guided by the leader to see His Majesty's safety, and now it seems that His Majesty is really auspicious, not only the assassin is ambushed, but even the Yan Guo qi on the assassin's sword is also laughed at between breaths."

"Huh? Yan Guo? ”

Ying Zheng twisted his eyebrows:

"You said that Jing Ke was assigned by the Yan Kingdom to assassinate the widow?"

"Yes, according to the leader's opinion, Yan Guo should have felt the fear of the Qin State army pressing the realm, so he wanted to fight to the death, although I don't know how they injected Yan Guoqi's qi into that sword, so as to break His Majesty's talisman qi."

The moon god said calmly:

"But judging from the results alone, the failure of Yan Guo's move is not only about to face His Majesty's anger, but also because the national fortune was gambled and lost under this desperate fight, and with the collapse of that sword, the next Yan Kingdom, even if it does not need His Majesty to attack, it will collapse itself, and there will be all kinds of turmoil and natural and man-made disasters."

Hear the words.

The ministers in the Qin State also looked at each other.

Li Si's eyes moved, and he stepped forward and asked, "In this way, the Yan Kingdom has already existed in name only." ”

As a disciple of Xunzi, the stranger of today.

Although Li Si has no talent for martial arts, what he is best at reading is to read a wide range of books, which is also recorded in Confucianism.

Zi said: If you don't know your fate, you can't be a gentleman.

Thirty and stand, forty and not confused, fifty know the destiny of heaven.

Although Li Si is far from knowing the destiny of heaven, he is not confused about the existence of many things in the world.

Just because the child is silent and confused does not mean that there is none.

Looking at the conversation between His Highness Li Si and the moon god.

Ying Zheng's eyes were cold:

"If it is true that the Yan Kingdom sent someone to assassinate the widow, no matter whether his luck has really been broken or not, I, Daqin, will personally set foot on the Yan Kingdom."

Assassins, the ages are endless.

Ying Zheng read ancient books and read the stories of assassins such as Nie Zheng and Zhuan Zhu, but he didn't expect that one day he would become the king who was assassinated.

But it is precisely because of this assassination.

He fully felt how frightened and desperate the remaining countries were, and he was crazy enough to make such a move, trying his best to find a little hope in despair.

Case.

Then he will completely extinguish all the remaining hope in the hearts of the remaining four royal families!

When the news of Jing Ke's failure to assassinate Qin came out, everyone in the world knew about the anger that Yan Kingdom might face next......

The Yan royal family was in chaos.

On the same day, King Yan sent people to surround his son, Yan Dan's mansion, preparing to capture his son and hand it over to Qin to calm his anger.

Unexpectedly, in the prince's mansion, Yan Dan had already disappeared with his wife and daughter.

…………

The coast of the East China Sea, also known as Songhai, means the sea of Fusang at sunrise.

The ancients believed that Songhai was the place where the sun rose.

More than 200 years ago, there was a country near here, called Lu State, which gave birth to a tall scholar who traveled around the world with 3,000 disciples, and finally returned to Lu and founded the Confucian sect.

The tall scholar was called Kongqiu.

Since then, there has been a small sage village here, which is mainly used as a place for the activities of Confucian disciples.

In a sense, it is also the helm of Confucianism among the hundreds of schools.

Inside the Little Sage Village.

Adjacent to the sea, there is a bamboo forest in the high mountains, and there is a courtyard in the bamboo forest, which is very quiet.

Jiang Taiyi followed the old scholar in front of him and slowly walked into his courtyard, and when he entered it, he saw many bamboo slips hanging on the walls of the courtyard, as if they were drying.

Just after walking into the courtyard.

Jiang Taiyi stood in place and said, "Okay, if you two want to talk to me about something, you can talk." ”

Xun Kuang held the bamboo slip and turned his head.

The butterfly that followed the two of them slowly changed into the appearance of a young Taoist.

Jiang Taiyi looked at the young Taoist's Yuan Shen incarnation, and couldn't help but praise: "A very high and profound spiritual realm, relying only on the spirit, can be infinitely close to the great achievement of practicing qi and transforming the gods, worthy of the Taoist current bull ear, Master Zhuangzi." ”

"It's not as profound as the realm of Taoist friends."

The young Zhuangzi Yuanshen looked at Jiang Taiyi and said:

"In fact, on the day when Daoyou came to the world with the heavenly fire, I already felt it, but at that time, I mistakenly thought that Daoyou was a heavenly man, and I thought about how the rules of the world did not work for you, but later I found out that Daoyou is neither a person in the world nor a person in heaven......"

"The rules of the world?"

Jiang Tai noticed this special word spoken by Zhuangzi and Xunzi early on, and said:

"I'd like to ask for advice."

Xun Kuang took over the words with a bamboo slip in his hand, and said: "This is going to start from ancient times, when there was no big difference between the world and the heavens, on the earth, people and gods lived together, and there were often heaven and man in the lower realm to help people in the world." ”

"At that time, people called the strongest person in a tribe 'emperor', and later as the tribe became stronger, the tribe became a state, and there were several more emperors."

"It was originally a battle on earth, but some people in heaven saw the invisible number of people fighting and killing between tribes and countries."

"Qi number, something that ordinary people can't see, for heavenly people, it is some kind of power close to fate, whoever can master enough qi number power can master the fate of heaven and earth, and the person who controls destiny is the master of everything."

"So, in order to compete for the number of qi in the world, the people in the heavens began to constantly meddle in the affairs of the world, dominate, promote, and influence the rise and fall of the human dynasty, with the purpose of stealing the number of qi in the world and improving their power and authority in the heavens."

"This practice, from the time of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, until the Xia and Shang eras, the world has almost completely become a heavenly farmland and fish ponds, waiting for a dynasty's luck to mature, and then harvest and fish."

"The heavenly immortals regard all beings in the world as ants, take them and take them, and manipulate the rise and fall and fate of the world."

"And there is no shortage of emperors in the world who have discovered the truth behind this scene, and they have also wanted to get rid of the fate of the Son of Heaven, but they have all failed without exception, because at that time, the heavenly people could go down to earth without restrictions to manipulate the victory or defeat of the human dynasty, such as the battle between the Yellow Emperor and Chi You, which is an example, the power of the human world is too weak for the heavens."

"But even so, there are still people who want to make efforts for it, and want to fight for a little bit of their own freedom for the world."

"It wasn't until after the Shang and Zhou Wars that there was finally a scholar, after continuing the power of his father and brother, as well as Prime Minister Jiang Ziya, based on Yi, and stepped into the realm of land immortals. In the next ten years, he did not soar, but continued to stay in the world, turning his cultivation into rules and scattering all over the world. ”

"The first rule is: Celestial beings must not easily come to the world again, and if they forcibly cross the gate of heaven, they will fall into the realm......"
