Qin Gong

Chapter 385 Change, see Bai Yu
Jidu of Yan State.

In an exquisite room, the elderly Mrs. Xu and Yan Dan sat on each other's knees, with a low wooden table in front of each of them.

"Young Master, counting the time, Jing Ke and Qin Wuyang should have arrived in Xianyang."

Mrs. Xu caressed her long beard, matched with her attire and gray hair, she had the feeling of being an outsider. When people saw him at first sight, they would think that he must be a moral old man.

"Well, if there is no accident, I have already arrived in Xianyang."

Yan Dan, who was wearing an exquisite swallow suit, nodded when she heard Mrs. Xu's words.

With a melancholy sound.

"The safety of the whole world is at stake. At this time, I will do this. I hope that Jing Qing and Qin Junzi will live up to expectations and seek a way of life for my country of Yan and for the world."

Yan Dan is a little sad, at this moment, I haven't done my best to listen to the fate, otherwise, Yan Dan will definitely feel that this sentence has won my heart.

"King Qin is dead, Qin is in chaos, and the world is prosperous!"

Mrs. Xu pondered for a few words, brushed her beard, and then looked up at Yan Dan.

"If things come to fruition this time, the young master will be famous through the ages."

Although Mrs. Xu's words were flattering, they were not exaggerated. Mrs. Xu knew that once King Qin Yingzheng was assassinated and killed, the Qin State would be in chaos.

According to Yan Dan's expectations, as long as Qin State falls into chaos, it will be three to five months at least, and it is not impossible for Qin State to decline.

Now that the king of Chu is critically ill, the state of Chu has been unable to express its determination, but if the state of Qin is in chaos, those nobles of the state of Chu who resist Qin will definitely not let go of the opportunity to disturb the situation of the state of Qin, thereby causing the state of Qin to decline.

As for the country of Yan.

Mrs. Xu looked at Yan Dan behind the wooden table with no expression on her face.

Dai Wang Jia has already promised to help Yan State, if Qin State sends troops, he will order people to cut off Qin State's supplies, as to whether it will be successful, Mrs. Xu is not sure, after all, she is not the leader of the army.

As long as Yandan is sure, it is fine, after all, this is a matter of the survival of the entire Yan Kingdom.

"Yan Dan dare not seek to be famous in the world, but only seeks to be able to earn peace for the world, and leave a place for himself."

Yan Dan closed her eyes and shook her head slightly.

Not to mention, with this appearance, there is really a feeling of sacrificing one's life for the world and not seeking fame and fortune.

"such a pity!"

Just as Mrs. Xu was thinking about how to continue to praise Yan Dan, Yan Dan opened her eyes and looked melancholy again.

But different from the melancholy just now, this time Mrs. Xu really felt that Yan Dan's regretful eyes did not seem to be fake.

see.

Mrs. Xu became puzzled.

"Why do you cherish it, son?"

Mrs. Xu frowned slightly, and raised her hand to ask Yan Dan Jili.

In Mrs. Xu's eyes, now Yan Dan is classified as the son of Yan State, and he is doing things that countless people in the world want to do but dare not do. As long as things are done, even the former four gentlemen can hardly stand shoulder to shoulder with Yan Dan.

Under such circumstances, why would Yan Dan regret it?

"The old man doesn't know."

Yan Dan laughed suddenly, raised her hand helplessly, and bowed to Mrs. Xu.

"It's helpless to say that Yan Dan fell in love at first sight with Lord Tian Dingtian's daughter in the Tian Mansion of Qi State."

After putting down her hands, Yan Dan explained slowly under Mrs. Xu's curious gaze.

"Yan Dan assassinated the King of Qin this time, not for the sake of fame, but for the sake of being married with the person he loves! However, Mr. Tian felt that the matter was done in secret, and his children were young, so he declined Yan Dan. It is really a pity in Yan Dan's heart .”

Yan Dan lowered her head pretending to be disappointed, and shook her face with regret.

"Oh, there is such a thing!"

Mrs. Xu was very surprised when she heard Yan Dan's words.

But Mrs. Xu is quite old, so she naturally knows that now is the time for her to express her opinion.

"My son dares to be the first in the world, and use his own strength to seek the safety of the world. This move is comparable to the ancient sages. In the future, the king of Qin will die, and the name of the son will spread all over the world. Compared with Lord Tian, ​​he will definitely think about it! When I return to Zhao, I will definitely Praise the great kindness of the son with the world."

Mrs. Xu raised her hand and said to Yan Dan, preparing to say goodbye as an excuse.

While speaking, Mrs. Xu looked at Yan Dan calmly. Since he came to the country of Yan, he has been in this mansion for several months, not daring to leave half a step. Yan Dan also sent many slaves with swords Protect him outside the mansion.

Now that she has acted, Mrs. Xu also thinks that she can leave as soon as possible.

"If Master Tian is willing to consider, then Yan Dan will die, and there will be no regrets!"

When Yan Dan heard Mrs. Xu's words, her face became uncontrollably excited in an instant, and she looked at Mrs. Xu with eyes full of joy.

It was not until two or three breaths later that Yan Dan noticed his gaffe, and was too excited to ask Mrs. Xu to stay.

"Hehehe~!"

Mrs. Xu smiled and didn't seem to care at all.

After all, Mrs. Xu knows what Yan Dan is like.

soon.

After chatting for a while, Mrs. Xu got up and asked Yan Dan to resign.

At this time, Yan Dan tried to persuade Mrs. Xu to stay again, seeing Mrs. Xu's decision to go, she personally sent Mrs. Xu out of the room and out of the mansion.

Outside the gate of the mansion.

More than a dozen commoner men holding swords stood around. These were the swordsmen raised by Yandan, and they were also called sword slaves later.

Accompanied by Mrs. Xu and Yan Dan walking out of the mansion while talking, not far away, followed by two servants with swords, four men and an old servant in expensive clothes drove slowly in a carriage. Come.

Finally, the carriage stopped in front of the mansion.

Seeing the arrival of the old servant and her followers, Mrs. Xu breathed a sigh of relief, and turned to salute Yan Dan.

"My lord, you don't have to send it away!"

Madam Xu said.

Yan Dan hurriedly returned the gift, and then made a gesture of invitation to Mrs. Xu.

After a while.

Yan Dan stood in front of the gate of the mansion, with one hand in front and the other behind, watching Mrs. Xu's carriage leave slowly.

Suddenly, Yan Dan laughed and turned to look west.

As Mrs. Xu said, as long as Jing Ke succeeds in assassinating Ying Zheng this time, his name Yan Dan will be spread all over the world, and he will be admired by dignitaries and scholars in all countries. At that time, he will be unmatched by the four gentlemen. Not even Mr. Xinling can compare.

"Fame and status are all in front of your eyes, close at hand, Mr. Qin, Jing Qing, you two, don't let me, Yan Dan!"

Yan Dan sighed.

As long as things are done, even if Tian Ding doesn't want to marry a daughter, Tian Ding can't help it. At that time, many nobles in the world praised him Yan Dan, and Tian Ding dared to go against the wishes of the world?

Recalling Tian Ding's polite refusal to procrastinate when he was in Tianfu in the past.

There was some resentment in Yan Dan's eyes.

But Tian Feiyan's appearance came to mind, and the corners of Yandan's mouth could not stop slowly rising, his eyes full of complacency.

No matter what he, Yan Dan, wants to get such a beautiful woman.

Inside Jicheng.

In a remote alley, four men escorted Mrs. Xu's carriage and drove slowly past.

Previously, due to the secrecy and in order to conceal the truth, Yan Dan had always placed Mrs. Xu in a place in the city where there were few people, and let Mrs. Xu concentrate on forging the poison dagger.

leave now.

Inside the carriage, Mrs. Xu closed her eyes, her old face was full of exhaustion.

During this period of time, Mrs. Xu thought that Yan Dan would treat him politely when Yan Dan invited him here, but she never thought that Yan Dan would imprison him in the mansion all this time under the guise of protection.

If Jing Ke and Qin Wuyang hadn't arrived in Qin State after counting the time, I'm afraid Yan Dan would still not let him go.

Ask yourself.

Mrs. Xu is quite old, so she is naturally aware of such an important matter, of course she must keep it secret, but Yan Dan is like being imprisoned, such distrustful behavior also makes Mrs. Xu feel chills.

The scariest time ever.

It was Yandan who came to the mansion in person and told him about Tian Guang.

Yan Dan told him in front of him that in order to keep it secret, after Tian Guang went to see Jing Ke, he killed himself with a sword!

At that time, Mrs. Xu couldn't hear what Yan Dan was saying.

"grown ups!"

In front of the carriage, the old servant's voice suddenly sounded.

Mrs. Xu came back to her senses and looked at the carriage curtain in front of her.

"What's the matter?"

Madam Xu asked.

At this moment.

Originally in the alley, some passers-by and a few men in common clothes suddenly pulled out sharp knives from the firewood pile beside the alley.

"Master Xu orders, Mrs. Xu must die, kill!"

A man in civilian clothes shouted at the other men with a sharp knife in his hand, and then took the lead in killing Mrs. Xu's carriage.

Following the man's order, other men with sharp blades all slashed at Mrs. Xu's followers with their swords.

Seeing this scene, Madam Xu's four servants pulled out their swords in horror and blocked the attack, but their fists were no match for four hands. Almost instantly, these servants were all chopped down. As long as they fell back and fell to the ground, He would be hacked to death with random knives, and he would fall to the ground and never stand up again, accompanied by streams of blood.

On the carriage, the old servant who hadn't finished speaking, was already pale with fright when he saw this scene.

Mrs. Xu in the carriage naturally also heard the movement.

"Yan Dan, you are still unwilling to let the old man go!"

Mrs. Xu naturally also heard the movement outside the carriage, her tired face was now full of anger, and her eyes were full of resentment.

There are very few people who know about his coming to Yan Country, not to mention the place where he lives here and the place he will pass when he leaves, only Yan Dan is the only one who knows.

It's just that Mrs. Xu doesn't understand.

Yan Dan wanted to kill him, why didn't he do it inside the mansion, he insisted on waiting for him to leave the mansion.

When the sound of fighting outside the carriage disappeared, Mrs. Xu knew that her four followers had all died. She was the most clear about the capabilities of her followers.

This also convinced Mrs. Xu that she was from Yandan.

thought here.

With doubts in her heart, Mrs. Xu got up slowly, opened the curtain of the carriage, and walked out of the carriage.

Outside the carriage.

The old servant had already been dragged to the ground by the man with the sword.

Mrs. Xu stood in front of the carriage, watching this scene, the scene of the tragic death of the four servants, and knew that he had only one way to die today.

"Why is Yan Dan unwilling to spare the old man's life? The old man has clearly followed Yan Dan's instructions and has not violated anything."

Mrs. Xu looked at the men in civilian clothes who were holding sharp knives and wanted to take his life today, and asked.

However, those men did not answer Mrs. Xu.

Except for the man holding a sword and watching Mrs. Xu vigilantly, several men looked at the old servant.

"The young master said that you can spare your life, but when you return to Zhao, you must say that it was Mrs. Xu who was killed by the people of Qin."

A man looked at the old servant and said softly.

Seeing that the old servant was trembling but refused to speak, the man picked up the sharp sword without hesitation, threw it lightly, and stabbed the old servant's thigh with his backhand.

"what!"

The severe pain made the old servant's face hideous and his veins protruding, but even so, he still refused to speak.

"Would you like to kill him directly? Seeing that he is so loyal to Mrs. Xu, it is impossible for him to speak!"

Another man came to the head man and suggested softly.

However, the leading man shook his head.

"The young master said that it is such a loyal old servant that people will believe what he says, so he must be killed by the people of Qin!"

The man said, then turned his head and looked at the old servant.

"My lord has already brought your family to the country of Yan. You will see it when you go back. If you don't agree, or go back on your word, your whole family will die tragically in an instant."

The man with the sword lowered his head slightly, squatted in front of the old servant, and threatened again softly.

This time.

The man threatened the old servant's family.

He even told the old servant that his family was no longer in Handan City, so if you don't believe me, you will know when you go back and have a look.

on the carriage.

When Mrs. Xu heard what the man said, her resentment towards Yan Dan had reached its peak.

Yan Dan is so ruthless!
I'm afraid that when they picked him up to leave Handan, they didn't intend to let him leave Jicheng alive.

Mrs. Xu thought about it, and finally gradually guessed that the reason for Yan Dan's treachery and action was probably that he didn't want the poison of the dagger to have an antidote in the world.

Thinking room.

When Mrs. Xu saw the carriage, a man took out a Qin crossbow and pointed it at him.

Looking at the cold arrow blade on the Qin crossbow, Mrs. Xu's heart was full of sadness. Yan Dan took great pains to get rid of him.

Mrs. Xu turned her head and glanced at the old servant, and the old servant happened to see Mrs. Xu's eyes.

Mrs. Xu didn't say anything to the old servant, when she looked at the crossbow again.

"Help the old man bring a word to Yan Dan!"

Mrs. Xu stood on the carriage, her eyes did not reveal the fear of death, only the resentment in her eyes, but she did not hide it.

"Tell Yan Dan, he must die!"

Mrs. Xu's voice fell.

Under the gaze of the man, and under the gaze of the old servant, the man holding the Qin crossbow had already pulled the trigger, and in an instant the arrow was inserted into Mrs. Xu's chest.

The extremely short distance and the huge force caused Mrs. Xu's whole body to back up in an instant, and then she was fixed on the wooden board of the carriage together with the arrow.

Trembling slightly.

In less than a few breaths, the elderly Mrs. Xu slowly calmed down and remained motionless. If she hadn't been immobilized by the arrow, she might have fallen down.

"Okay! As long as the young master does not move my family, I am willing, then Mrs. Xu was killed by the people of Qin!"

Seeing this scene, the old servant's eyes turned red, and then he showed eyes full of fear, and looked at the men in black in pleading eyes.

"Don't touch my family! Please, my lord! Let go of my family."

The old servant begged tremblingly.

Seeing this, the men around looked at each other, nodded slowly, and once again threatened the old servant not to break his promise if he didn't want his family to die.

After speaking, the man led the others, dropped a Qin crossbow, and turned to leave.

Inside the alley.

Except for the four corpses, there was blood all over the place, only Mrs. Xu who was pierced by an arrow in the carriage.

The old servant clutched his bleeding thigh, looked at Mrs. Xu, looked at the blood stains on the carriage, then wept, tried to get up, kowtowed to Mrs. Xu, then turned and walked in another direction.

············
In Xianyang City.

In Bai Yu's mansion, Bai Yan was kneeling in the study room, besides the bamboo slips, there was a small package of herbs in front of the wooden table, and on the opposite side of the wooden table was Bai Ming, who was eleven or twelve years old.

When looking at the bamboo slips, Bai Yan would look out the window when his eyes hurt.

I don't know if it's because my heart is not at peace. In the past, it was easy to see the tactics in my mind, but now it is difficult to remember.

Calculate the time.

Now that Jing Ke and Qin Wuyang have arrived in Xianyang, they should have been looking for an opportunity to fight in the country of Yan. As long as Mrs. Xu dies, many things in the future will become ironclad evidence

"Yan, this is freshly made soup!"

Lu walked into the study, looked at Bai Yan and said.

Beside Lu Shi, Bai Yao was holding a bowl of steaming chicken soup, and then put it on the wooden table.

"Thank you, aunt!"

Bai Yan stood up and said the ceremony.

While speaking, Bai Yan heard footsteps coming from outside the door, Bai Yan turned his head, and then saw Bai Yu wearing the official uniform of Qin State, appearing outside the study door.

When Lu Shi, Bai Yan and Bai Ming saw Bai Yu, they quickly turned to Bai Yu.

"Good man!"

"Father, father!!"

After Lu's ceremony, seeing Bai Yu come back, he was relieved.

After knowing that the young man next to him was not Zou Xing, Lu family didn't know how to deal with the young man this time. Fortunately, he sent his servant to the Prime Minister's Mansion to inform Bai Yu that the young man had returned to Xianyang.

"Ming'er, Xi'er, you guys go down first!"

Bai Yu nodded to his wife, then looked at his children.

Seeing Bai Ming looking at the boy reluctantly, Bai Yu felt helpless. His son's reverence for the boy had already surpassed that of his father.

Inside the study.

With the reluctant Bai Ming and Bai Yan leaving, only Bai Yu, Lu Shi, and Bai Yan are left.

"Bai Yan, meet uncle!"

Bai Yan looked at Bai Yu's face, pretended to ignore it cheekily, and raised his hand to salute.

Bai Yan knows that Bai Yu's temperament is a straightforward person, so seeing Bai Yu's appearance, Bai Yan is relieved.

"Humph!"

Bai Yu looked at Bai Yan and snorted coldly.

Lu Shi on the side smoothed things over and pulled the cuff of Bai Yu's official uniform. Bai Yu glared at Lu Shi, and then seemed to dissipate some of his anger.

"Tell me, what's the boy's name!"

Bai Yu turned his head to look at the boy who compiled the ceremony.

Bai Yan heard Bai Yu's inquiry, and then told his own background, and made a loud push, Bai Yu knelt behind the wooden table, and Lu Shi were also listening carefully, but in the end, after listening Bai Yu asked, can I prove it?

Bai Yan shook his head,
In an instant, Bai Yu was almost pissed off. Bai Yu couldn't tell that Bai Yan had no intention of revealing his true background.

"You kid is determined not to say anything, right?"

Bai Yu stood up, glared at Bai Yan, was short of breath, and began to criticize Bai Yan.

"Back then, you kid, dared to come directly to the Bai family to cheat food and drink!..."

"If it weren't for father and elder brother..."

The study room was filled with Bai Yu's voice, and Bai Yan was listening the whole time without talking back.

Lu Shi on the side watched from the side.

As Bai Yu's wife, Lu Shi knew how much Bai Yu admired Bai Yan. It can be said that without Junzhu, Bai Yu would betroth her to Bai Yan and let Bai Yan be his son-in-law.

Looking at Bai Yan, the Lu family knew better that the current Bai Yan is a general, a general of the Qin State, and is more favored by the king than his beloved.

Looking at the one big and one small in the study, knowing that the relationship between these two people is very good, it can't be true, Lu shook his head, turned around and walked out of the study.

And there is no Mrs. Lu in the study.

After venting, Bai Yu finally knelt behind the wooden table, his face full of resentment.

"I heard that you came to Xianyang this time to escort Yan envoys?"

Bai Yu was silent for a long time, looking at Bai Yan who didn't get in, he was full of helplessness, he couldn't beat him, and scolded him was useless.

Bai Yu didn't even know how to deal with this kid.

"Yes!"

When Bai Yan heard Bai Yu's words, he nodded and bowed to Bai Yu.

Hearing that Bai Yu didn't mention Bai Shi's matter, Bai Yan guessed that it's very likely that Bai Shi hasn't decided how to deal with it yet.

As for Jing Ke's affairs, Bai Yan would naturally not tell Bai Yu.

"Tell me, is Na Mima's death related to you?"

Bai Yu was not interested in the envoy of Yan. After all, in Bai Yu's eyes, an envoy of Yan was nothing more than a normal envoy, so he changed the subject and talked about Mi Nuo's death.

When talking and asking, Bai Yu originally wanted to look at Bai Yan directly, to see if Bai Yan was lying.

But at this moment, before Bai Yan could answer, Bai Yu heard footsteps outside the door.

Hearing the movement, Bai Yu frowned. He had already said that no one is allowed to approach the study, so why would anyone come here.

However, when he turned his head and saw Master Xu, Bai Yu was very surprised, but he still got up quickly and bowed to Master Xu.

"Miss Xu!"

Bai Yu could remember that it was the doctor in front of him back then who detoxified him and saved his life.

But Bai Yu was also very surprised, he didn't expect Master Xu to come to the house today.

"General Bai Yu!"

Master Xu returned the salute to Bai Yu.

After the ceremony, Bai Yu turned his head and looked at Bai Yan.

"I didn't expect you to have a conscience, please come here, don't worry! I'm fine!"

Bai Yu said.

Although he was grateful, Bai Yu's expression was still very dissatisfied, as if he wanted to use this expression to tell Bai Yan that one matter is another matter, don't think that if you invite Miss Xu to come over, other matters will not be pursued.

Inside the study.

When Bai Yan heard Bai Yu's words, he exchanged a glance with Master Xu, then looked at Bai Yu, couldn't help showing a smile, knowing that Bai Yu had misunderstood.

But speaking of it, Bai Yu could be blamed, because he didn't want to say anything before, so he didn't say it all the time, and he forgot to say it later, now Master Xu has stayed by his side, following him all the time.
