The mysterious bird of destiny, the beginning of China

Chapter 101: The Majesty of the Emperor?

Bai Qi led the Qin army to capture Handan City, the capital of Zhao State, and entered the Zhao Palace at the first opportunity. However, he did not find the Zhao King.

Not even the Zhao clan was caught.

He must have escaped in advance!
Therefore, Bai Qi ordered people to search the whole city, and he must not let anyone escape from the Zhao clan!
Finally, it didn't take long for soldiers to report, and King Zhao and the Zhao clan were all captured.

They were taken to the Zhao palace.

"The general, King Zhao and the Zhao clan were preparing to escape from the city through the secret passage in King Zhao's palace. Fortunately, a palace attendant revealed the location of the secret passage, so they could be caught so easily! "

It was Wang Lu who captured King Zhao and the Zhao clan. The armor on his body was stained with blood. Obviously, Handan City was also extremely dangerous for the Qin army at this time.

Bai Qi looked around and saw that King Zhao was wearing the crown of King Zhao, but his fine clothes were covered with stains, making him look miserable.

Behind him was the Zhao Guo clan. Looking at it, there were no less than a thousand people.

Of course, for the State of Zhao, these clans are the real people who can succeed to the throne and become the king of Zhao in the future, and will have the status of king in the future.

No matter which one of them dies, it will not affect the other one as King Zhao.

Seeing this, Bai Qi already understood Zhao Guo's plan.

It doesn't matter if the capital is conquered by the Qin army. As long as the Zhao clan is still there, there will be King Zhao.At that time, we can rely on the power of the other five countries to help the Zhao Kingdom recover!

But they didn't expect that Bai Qi was guarding them, and it was precisely because of their wishful thinking that Bai Qi was able to catch them all!
"General, what should we do with them? When will we send them to Xianyang?"

Wang Lu on the side asked again.

As for King Zhao and the Zhao clan, they had no right to deal with them. They could only send them to Xianyang to wait for the death of King Qin.

This is also the reason why Wang Hao asked.

But Bai Qi did not immediately answer Wang Lu's words, but fell into deep thought.

At this time, among the Zhao clan, naturally some people saw Bai Qi in front of them and knew that Bai Qi was the general who led the army to destroy Zhao this time. Some were trembling with fear, while others were fearless and resentful.

Some people even yelled at Bai Qi directly:
"Destroy our Zhao State today, and tomorrow the Qin State will surely suffer the disaster of annihilation! Destroy its ancestral temple and destroy its clan!"

"Violent Qin! Violent Qin!"

"..."

Some people even uttered vulgar words directly, just like people in the market, not like the nobles of the clan.

Hearing this, Bai Qi did not show any anger on his face. He just turned his head slightly and ordered the Qin soldiers beside him, saying: "Behead!"

The language is cold and murderous.

When Qin soldiers heard this, several people immediately came out and pulled the people who had just cursed out from the crowd. They stood aside, raised the Qin sword in their hands, and beheaded several people!

Hot blood sprayed, and the nearby clan members were directly splashed with blood. The fishy smell filled their noses, making them vomit immediately.

They are members of the royal family of the Zhao Kingdom and nobles of the Zhao Kingdom. They enjoy glory and wealth all day long. Where have they seen such a bloody scene? !

Seeing this, the Qin soldiers on the side couldn't help but sneered in their hearts, with a look of disdain on their faces.

At this time, Bai Qi fell into deep thought.

He naturally knew that he had no right to deal with these Zhao clans, but he also knew that these Zhao clans might become an obstacle for Qin to truly destroy Zhao.

Just like the previous Qi State, it was about to be destroyed, but it successfully recovered!
After a long silence, Bai Qi looked at the thousands of Zhao clan members in front of him. There was fear, resentment, and happiness in their eyes...

Looking at King Zhao at the front, he seemed to be frightened. His whole body was limp on the ground, and there was no trace of King Zhao's majesty on his body.

Bai Qi frowned, walked forward quickly, stood in front of King Zhao, looked down from a high position and said: "Raise your head!"

Seeing that King Zhao had no reaction, the Qin soldiers on the side shouted in unison, "Raise your head!"

The sound was loud and loud, like a roaring beast!
It made everyone in the Zhao clan tremble.

At this time, King Zhao also slowly raised his head.

"Clang!"

Seeing the cautious expression on King Zhao's face, Bai Qi immediately pulled out the long sword in his hand and waved his hand on King Zhao's neck.

"Pfft!"

Blood spurted out immediately, and the crowned head rolled down, stopping only because of the steps.

The headless corpse fell to the ground, and the red blood immediately drowned him.

"This person is not King Zhao, but someone else pretending to be someone else. Search Handan City quickly to find King Zhao!"

"Keng!"

Sheathing the Qin sword, Bai Qi commanded with endless killing intent filling his body.

When the soldiers on the side heard the words, they immediately responded and searched quickly.

Wang Hao frowned when he saw this.

Because he had seen the portrait of King Zhao...

However, he looked at Bai Qi and said, "How to deal with these Zhao clan members?"

At this time, Bai Qi had turned around and was about to leave. Hearing Wang Lu's words, he said calmly: "Kill them all!"

"……only!"

----

Two days were enough for the news of Zhao to spread throughout the six countries.At this time, people in various countries truly believed that Zhao was really destroyed by Qin.

In fact, no one from Zhao's clan has ever been heard of escaping.

For a time, all the other countries except Qin felt worried.

Now that the State of Zhao has been destroyed by the State of Qin, what will happen next?Which country will be destroyed by Qin next?
In Handan, the capital of the Zhao Kingdom, there were agents from other countries lurking. They saw with their own eyes the former high-ranking nobles of the Zhao Kingdom, being dragged out of the magnificent palace by Qin Ruishi and put into a cage.

Anyone who resists will be killed directly on the spot, leaving no one alive.

As for ordinary people, they were also panicked.

But what surprised the craftsmen was that, except for the people who took the initiative to resist Qin's soldiers, Qin Rui's soldiers did not harm the other people!
This simply stunned them!

The Qin State is a master of tigers and wolves, but it actually knows etiquette so well?He didn't do any harm to the people in the city! ?

No matter how much they don't believe it, it's true!

Before Bai Qi attacked Handan City, he told the army that except for the people who actively harmed the Qin soldiers, the rest of the people should not be harmed. Anyone who harms the people at will, commits adultery and plunders will be dealt with according to military law!

That's how they saw the scene now.

The carefully crafted news quickly spread to their country, and for a while, people were panicked!
The kings of all the countries were shocked, but Qi and Yan still had their troops in Zhao.

"The Qin State has just experienced a war at this time and has just finished attacking Handan, the capital of the Zhao State. The entire army must be exhausted and morale has dropped. How can it still have the strength to fight us? I'm afraid it's too late to hide from us!"

The leading generals of the two countries thought so, and at the same time they kept attacking the eastern city of Zhao State and bringing it into their own territory!
Bai Qi really couldn't do anything to them when they were trying to seize food from the tiger's mouth!
"Now our army has lost more than [-] soldiers and has fought for a long time, and its morale has dropped. I am afraid that Qi and Yan took advantage of our army to attack Zhao's city so blatantly and seize the territory that will belong to Qin!"

Wang Hao pondered for a long time and said this.

At this time, he had just killed all the Zhao clan, came to the Zhao palace, and said this after following Bai Qi.

At this time, the two of them were in the harem of King Zhao. Since Bai Qi specifically told them to only surround the harem but not attack, no Qin soldiers have entered except the two of them.

However, the beauties in the Zhao Palace already knew that the Qin army had invaded the Zhao Palace. They were trembling with fear, not knowing what their fate would be!

Bai Qi looked at the magnificent Queen Zhao's harem where it was built, with a sneer on his face, "King Zhao is also a person who enjoys it!"

"But now, they all belong to our Qin Kingdom!"

Wang Lu continued.

"Select a hundred beauties from the palace of Queen Zhao and distribute them among the generals of the army. From the rest, we will select innocent beauties and send them to Xianyang to present to the king!"

"only!"

Hearing this, Wang Hao showed a smile on his face, and immediately ordered his soldiers to start gathering the beauties in the palace.

"Choose a civil servant to manage Handan City until the king sends someone. At the same time, I will give you [-] soldiers to go east and look for opportunities to repel the armies of Yan and Qi!"

After pondering for a moment, Bai Qi suddenly explained to Wang Lu.

"only!"

Wang Hao quickly accepted the order.

At the same time, Bai Qi said again: "If we lose to the troops of Yan and Qi, we can avoid the edge for the time being!"

……

The news of the destruction of Zhao State finally spread back to Xianyang City. For a while, the people in Xianyang City felt proud, with happy faces on their faces, sighing at the power of Qin State.

The people from other countries in Xianyang City suddenly looked serious. It was really unbelievable that the war to destroy the country happened in their own era.

Qin Palace.

In Zhangtai Palace.

King Qin Ying Ji looked at the military information sent by Bai Qi, a smile appeared on his face, and then he laughed heartily!
The battle to destroy the country should be a milestone for Qin!
The State of Zhao, the former overlord, was actually destroyed by the State of Qin!
Princess Xia was also in Zhangtai Palace at this time. King Qin then handed the general's love to Princess Xia. Princess Xia couldn't help but smile after seeing it.

Zhao State was really destroyed!

In this way, the disputes among the countries should be reduced a lot!

"The achievement of destroying the country!"

King Qin Ying Ji sat back at the desk, the smile on his face still not fading away.

Princess Xia couldn't help but suggested: "Your Majesty, please send officials to the Kingdom of Zhao quickly to help Bai Qi take over the city of Zhao Kingdom!"

"it is good!"

King Qin Ying Ji quickly started to make arrangements, but new doubts emerged again, and he couldn't help but say: "The military information sent by Lord Wu An contains records about the nobles in Handan City, but there is no description of the Zhao clan..."

Princess Xia heard the words and looked at the military information sent by Bai Qi again, and then her brows frowned.

"What's wrong?" King Qin couldn't help asking when he saw this.

"Military information says that the Zhao clan has gathered in the city to defend the city and has never surrendered, so we can only kill them all!"

"Ok?"

Hearing this, the smile on King Qin's face suddenly disappeared.

He couldn't help but confirm again, "Mr. Wu An actually killed all the Zhao clan?"

"Including King Zhao?"

"That's right!"

Upon hearing Princess Xia's confirmation, King Qin's face once again showed a solemn look.

"in this way……"

This may put Qin in a very dangerous situation.

If the Zhao clan, or even the King of Zhao, does not die, it will give other countries the illusion that Zhao can still recover.

But now, the State of Qin actually made King Zhao murderous and killed all the members of the Zhao State's clan. This clearly shows that it did not want to give the State of Zhao a chance to recover!

In fact, this is a direct way to let Zhao Guo cut off his ancestral temple!

I'm afraid it will arouse the hostility of various countries!

"This is bad..."

The King of Qin originally planned to escort all the Zhao clan to Xianyang and imprison them in Xianyang.

"I'm afraid the countries will join forces again!"

King Qin Yingji looked at Princess Xia, and then walked around Zhangtai Palace again.

After a long time, he let out a long sigh.

"That's it!"

"The intention of all countries to be hostile to Qin is no longer a temporary thing. In the past, Qin didn't take it seriously, let alone today!"

King Qin quickly arranged for the waiters on the side and said: "Inform the ministers in the court and ask them to rush to Xianyang Palace to discuss state affairs!"

"Here!"

After the waiter left, Princess Xia also stood up and said, "In that case, I'm leaving too!"

"Sister, why don't we go together?"

King Qin looked at Princess Xia.

Princess Xia shook her head and then left with the waiters and maids.

……

Yan, Qi, Chu, South Korea, and Wei learned that Zhao was destroyed by Qin. Among them, Wei and South Korea were the most frightened, so they secretly sent envoys to contact other countries to discuss how to deal with Qin's troops. Front.

Among them, King Nan of Zhou State was filled with indignation and anger when he heard about the destruction of Zhao State.

At the same time, he thought of the time when the Qin State entered the Zhou State and drove him away from the Heavenly Palace, and he suddenly felt even more ashamed and angry.

At this time, seeing that all the countries were afraid of Qin's power, he knew that the time had come, so he took the initiative to contact all countries to discuss jointly attacking Qin.

Ever since King Wu of Qin expelled the Emperor, the Emperor of Zhou had lost all his majesty, but today he took the initiative to contact all the countries to attack Qin, and all the countries actually agreed.

For a time, Emperor Zhou seemed to have regained his former glory!

……

As everyone knows, the Qin State's dragnet has already become familiar with the movements of other countries and quickly reported them to Xianyang.

King Qin knew about this, but ignored it. What Qin was doing now was to stabilize the newly acquired territory of Zhao as soon as possible.

As for the various countries' attack on Qin, although they did not make any preparations, they only slowly increased their troops to deal with it.

As time passed, Bai Qi began to lead his troops back to Qin.

Except for a few cities in the Zhao Kingdom that have not yet been incorporated into the territory of the Qin Kingdom, there are also cities that have been captured by the Yan Kingdom and the Qi Kingdom. All other Zhao lands have been included in the Qin Kingdom!

In Huizhi Palace.

Princess Xia is getting older.

And the spirit is no longer as high as before. Apart from walking around the Qin Palace, he is sitting in the Huizhi Palace, under the pavilions, and quietly watching the flowers in the flower garden blooming.

Or watching the colorful clouds slowly drift away from the horizon.

Beside the flower garden, Ta Xue was munching flowers carefree, not snoring to prove its existence.

Bai Zhi's mind was immersed in the invisible world he had just acquired, the supernatural power he had just obtained. Everything seemed so peaceful.

Until one day, Princess Xia suddenly shouted:
"Master?"

"Ok?"

Bai Zhi, who was standing on the sycamore tree, looked at Princess Xia under the pavilion with curiosity in his eyes.

"Master once told Xia that his name is Bai Zhi?"

"...That's right."

Bai Zhi, this is the name of the past.No one has called my name before, but if I mention it again now, I feel a strong sense of strangeness.

"Bai Zhi...Master's name is a good name!"

Princess Xia savored it for a moment before smiling.The wrinkles on his face are dense, and he no longer has the peerless appearance he once had, but is still a little ferocious.

people,
old!

It seems to be getting ugly!

"Where is it?"

Bai Zhi was stunned for a moment, saying that when he was a human being, he had used it for decades, but he didn't feel that there was anything good about this name.

"Bai Zhi...Bai Zhi, stop at the right time, act in moderation..."

Princess Xia murmured, with a peaceful look on her face, "Perhaps Xia has not behaved in a moderate way in her life, or she may have asked for too much..."

"The world is at peace. There will no longer be a world where children lose their mothers. I'm afraid Xia will never see it again!"

Bai Zhi: "..."

Bai Zhi flew down from the sycamore tree and landed next to Princess Xia.

In his eyes, a faint black aura suddenly emerged from Princess Xia's body. Combined with Princess Xia's state at this time, Bai Zhi suddenly had an unknown premonition in his heart.

"summer……"

Bai Zhi opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.

He didn't know if he would cry, but he felt sad for no reason.

He turned around and immediately arranged for the waiters on the side, "Go and summon King Qin and come to Huizhi Palace quickly!"

"Here!"

The waiter didn't know the reason, but he left quickly and respectfully.

"Walking in the snow is carefree..."

Princess Xia's eyes fell on Ta Xue in the palace garden, a smile appeared on her face, but there was regret and reminiscence in the smile.

Seeing this, Bai Zhi said again: "Taxue is now 70 years old, but he is still strong. Could it be that Xia you..."

"Master, there is no need to say more, Xia's mind has been made up!"

"But... you... make me feel a little lonely..."

Only then did Bai Zhi realize that he was regretting that Princess Xia refused to live forever?
Is it because I lament that beautiful women age easily?

Are you lamenting the passage of time?

Do not!
It was because I thought that after Princess Xia grew old, she would become lonely!
Yes!

Where will Princess Xia stay when she grows old?

Will you still stay in this Huizhi Palace?
But this familiar Huizhi Palace has become extremely strange without the figure it once had.

Bai Zhi came back to his senses and looked at Princess Xia, only to find that Princess Xia was looking at him, looking at each other. Princess Xia smiled indifferently, and her cloudy eyes seemed to see through Bai Zhi's heart:
"Master, if you feel lonely, you can let Texue accompany you. When Texue is there, Xia is here..."

"Treading snow..."

"Herod..."

As if he heard Princess Xia calling his name, Ta Xue in the palace suddenly called out, then slowly walked over, looking sideways at Princess Xia sitting under the pavilion.

"Sister? What's wrong, sister?!"

At this time, King Qin finally arrived.He was panting and his clothes were disheveled, obviously from running.

Her pale temples and wrinkled cheeks were filled with tears because she saw the old princess Xia Zhimu.

"Sister..."

King Qin knelt down next to Princess Xia, holding Princess Xia's old hands tightly, as if he was afraid that Princess Xia would leave at the next moment.

Seeing the King of Qin Ying Ji coming in a hurry, Princess Xia laughed and said: "The majestic King of Qin is actually crying at this time...Are you ashamed?"

King Qin did not respond and looked at her quietly, as if he wanted to keep her in his heart.
