The mysterious bird of destiny, the beginning of China

Chapter 102 The princess of Zhenguo dies!
The plane trees in the palace garden rustled in the breeze, and suddenly pieces of dead leaves fell.Even the flowers in the flower beds are rarely in bloom, because there are not many left because of the chewing on the snow.

The grass and poplars are withering, and the once happy scene seems to be vivid in my mind.

The autumn wind is bleak, but the joy of the harvest seems to be vivid in my heart.

Autumn has arrived, and the cold wind is blowing.

Looking at the crying King Qin, Princess Xia had a smile on her face.She looked at King Qin's face and suddenly said: "I failed to protect him once, and now Ji has gray hair on his temples. In this way, he is worthy of his father-in-law."

She looked outside the palace garden again, "This is the name of the country, and Xia has lived up to my father-in-law's expectations!"

"Sister..."

After hearing this, King Qin Yingji finally couldn't bear it anymore and let out a heavy sob.

It seems that at this moment, there is no limit to identity.

Due to her father's dying entrustment, the eldest sister had to take good care of her younger brother at home. As time passed, the younger brother gradually grew up, but the eldest sister did not know when she became old and unbearable, like a candle in the wind, about to be extinguished.

King Qin had already thought that this day would come, but he did not expect that this day would come so quickly.

At this time, Princess Xia looked into the Huizhi Palace and Gardens, seemingly traveling through endless time and space.

I saw a six or seven-year-old girl playing in the palace garden. Suddenly, a doting call came from not far away:
"Nah!"

The little girl looked over, with a happy smile on her face, holding the freshly picked flowers in her hands, and ran towards the direction of the sound.

Not far away, a man in rich clothes stood quietly, and next to him, there was a gentle woman.

"Nah!"

"Mother!"

The little girl shouted and ran away.

…………

"Mother..."

King Qin lowered his head and heard Princess Xia whispering softly. At the same time, he saw the tears slowly falling from the corners of his sister's eyes. His eyes were sour and gradually moistened.

He could feel his sister's hands becoming weak, and she was about to break free from his own hands and drop them on the table.

"Sister!"

The King of Qin understood that the sister who once loved him was gone, and as the King of Qin, he was finally alone!

Bai Zhi on the side looked at Princess Xia quietly, feeling the vitality gradually disappearing from Princess Xia's body, and looked at the sycamore tree in the palace garden.

The autumn wind became more and more urgent, as if it wanted to leave this sad place in a hurry.The withered yellow leaves gradually fell, falling silently on the grass and flower beds.

A butterfly flew slowly over. It was a cold autumn day. It had persisted all summer and entered its twilight years. It was flying chaotically in the palace garden, as if it was looking for its own burial place.

Ta Xue seemed to sense something and stood quietly aside. He stopped chewing the few flowers in the garden and stood quietly.

But there are dandelion seeds flying in the autumn wind, flying high into the sky, flying out of the palace garden, and flying into the sky.

…………

Lantian Camp.

Bai Qi led his troops back to Qin, and this time he went on an expedition to destroy the State of Zhao. His name Bai Qi could be said to spread throughout the countries.

After returning to Qin, you can see that many generals looked at him with eyes full of reverence and admiration!
Bai Qi didn't take it to heart at all.

in the tent.

Wang Hao looked at the Kan map. The former Zhao land was now classified as Qin land. However, there was a clearly marked location in the northern part of the original Zhao state.

"Daijun, Yanmen and other places have still not been conquered. This is because the famous Zhao general Li Mu is stationed there, which gives us a headache!"

"I have heard about Li Mu. He has defended Zhao State against the Huns from the north all year round and protected Zhao State from the danger of the Huns. He also loves his soldiers like his own son. He kills three cows every day to reward the army lieutenants. He also has extraordinary martial arts. Every day They all train together with the soldiers..."

Bai Zhi talked about Li Mu's experience like a treasure. Finally, he looked at Wang Lu and said, "Send someone to tell the generals who attacked Li Mu that it is best to recruit Li Mu to surrender. After all, the Zhao Kingdom has been destroyed. He, the Zhao general, ...What the State of Zhao can give, the State of Qin can also give!"

Hearing Bai Qi's arrangement, Wang Hao showed surprise on his face.

Originally, he thought that Bai Qi would be hostile to Li Mu because he was a famous general of the Zhao Kingdom, and would try every means to kill Li Mu. However, he did not expect that at this time, he would have a love for talents and take the initiative to recruit him.

Seeing Wang Lu's surprise, Bai Qi did not explain.

He walked out of the tent, looked into the school grounds, and then looked in the direction of Xianyang. For some reason, he felt a palpitation in his heart.

Nowadays, he is also old, his face is covered with wrinkles, and his hair is gray. Except for the armor on his body, he seems to be an ordinary old man.

"I will return to Xianyang tomorrow, and I will leave the affairs of Lantian Camp to you!"

Bai Qi did not turn around, but arranged for Wang Lu to follow him.

"only!"

Wang Hao nodded immediately.

…………

The next day, before dawn, Bai Qi set off back to Xianyang.

This time, he only brought two thousand soldiers and a small amount of loot.

Bai Qi originally didn't bother to ask for these, but as a general, if he didn't take some items, it would make other generals in the army at a loss.

Riding on his horse, walking on the official road, looking at the merchants walking on the road, Bai Qi fell into deep thought.

I thought about the Zhao Kingdom in my mind.

The Qin army beheaded the King of Zhao and the Zhao clan, all because of Bai Qi's decision.

"As long as the King of Zhao and the entire clan of the Zhao Kingdom are killed, the Zhao Kingdom will no longer be in danger of restoration. In this way, the days of peace in the world will come sooner!"

As for the wrath of the nations, let yourself bear it!
With this thought in mind, he suddenly saw Qin Chuanxin soldiers running quickly in front of the official road, waving the whip in their hands.

Bai Qi frowned slightly when he saw this, but he didn't stop him.

However, the messenger who came closer seemed to have seen the white flag, and he quickly reined in his horse and said politely: "I have met Mr. Wu An!"

Bai Qi sat on the horse and nodded, and couldn't help but ask: "Where are you going now? Do you have the order of King Xianyang?"

"Go back to Mr. Wu'an..."

But he saw a look of sadness on the soldier's face, and then he said sadly: "...Princess Zhenguo died... in Xianyang!"

It was like a thunderbolt from the blue sky, exploding in Bai Qi's ears. He couldn't believe it. He looked at the soldiers and asked seriously, "What do you think happened to Princess Zhenguo...!?"

Seeing Bai Qi's sudden seriousness and the frightening murderous intent exuding from his body, the soldier's body trembled, but at this time he said: "Princess Zhenguo... has passed away!"

At this time, Bai Qicai finally believed what the soldiers said, because no one dared to kill others on this matter.

Ignoring the messenger soldier on the side, he waved the whip in his hand and galloped forward quickly with the roar of the horse under his crotch.

Seeing this, the two thousand soldiers following Bai Qi quickly followed suit.

……

The whole city was full of evil, and the death of the King of Qin was nothing more than this.

In Xianyang City, almost everyone couldn't help but hang up mourning cloths, showing sadness on their faces.The name of Princess Zhenguo is known to everyone in Qin, and the merits of Princess Zhenguo are known to everyone in Qin!

When King Huiwen was still alive, he fought for the country and defeated the six-nation coalition at Hangu Pass.During the reign of King Wu, he protected King Wu and was ambushed in a valley. A thousand people fell into the camp and died in battle.

Now, he is fighting in all directions for the Qin State. With his old age, he rushed to Changping to stop the Zhao army and was almost captured by the Zhao State!
All the past events come to mind one by one.

"The goddess is the daughter of Qin!"

The goddess of Qin, Princess Xia!

"The princess of Zhenguo is protected by a divine bird, so why does she still die?"

Some people were confused and said this.

"Princess Xia is now eighty years old. She has always lived a long life no matter what time she was. Princess Zhenguo... is tired after all!" Some people hold a different view.

"..."

……

When Bai Qi felt Xianyang, he saw such a scene. He was covered in dust, and even the horse under his crotch was exhausted and was about to die of exhaustion.

At this time, he did not return home immediately, but went straight to the Qin Palace.

……

In Huizhi Palace, King Qin Yingji watched as the palace maids collected the body of Princess Xia and carefully placed it in the red sandalwood coffin.

After a moment, King Qin Ying Ji stepped forward and looked at Princess Xia lying in the coffin. His peaceful face appeared in front of his eyes, which made him couldn't help but recall the past.

Slowly closing his eyes, King Qin Yingji turned around and immediately arrived in the palace garden again.

Seeing the lonely divine bird standing under the pavilion, he walked forward and said, "My sister grew up in Huizhi Palace. All my memories are condensed here. Therefore, I want to let my sister sleep here for a while longer." time……"

"Ok!"

Bai Zhi came back to his senses, heard what King Qin Ying Ji said, and looked at Huizhi Palace, but at this moment, the aura of the past was gone.

After all, King Qin Yingji couldn't hold back at this time. He raised his eyes to look at Bai Zhi and asked: "I know that the sacred bird has magical powers. Treading Snow was originally a war horse with a lifespan of only fifteen years, but now it is seventy years old. I must The divine bird should have the ability to live forever..."

Seeing Qin King Ying Ji's questioning look, Bai Zhi didn't want to explain, but he still said:

"I have magical powers, but Xia doesn't want to live forever!"

Hearing Bai Zhi's answer, Qin King Ying Ji was stunned for a moment, and then his body relaxed, as if hope disappeared again. After a long time, he said: "...Thank you, Divine Bird!"

"Next, please ask the divine bird to take care of my sister..."

Afterwards, King Qin Ying Ji strode out of Huizhi Palace.

……

Bai Qi walked into Zhangtai Palace and saw King Qin Ying Ji sitting on the throne. He saw a look of sadness on King Qin's face.

"Your Majesty, Princess Zhenguo..."

Bai Qi spoke urgently and looked at King Qin.

However, King Qin raised his hand to stop Bai Qi's next words and said directly: "Sister, I am in Huizhi Palace now. I will ask the waiter to take you there later..."

After saying that, King Qin Yingji looked at Bai Qi and asked, "How is the matter with Zhao Kingdom?"

"Ninety percent of Zhao's territory has now become the territory of Qin. However, during this period, some cities were taken away by Yan and Qi!"

Bai Qi pondered for a moment and replied.

"What exactly is happening to King Zhao and the Zhao clan?"

King Qin continued to ask.

Bai Qi was silent, and then he said everything he was thinking.

"In other words, did you kill King Zhao and the Zhao clan on purpose?"

King Qin Yingji looked at Bai Qi with complicated eyes.

How could he not know Bai Qi's plan?Unexpectedly, he would directly solve the problem that troubled him.

Of course, it also brought greater trouble to Qin, but this trouble was...

King Qin looked at Bai Qi and wanted to say something, but he still didn't.

"You know, if you kill King Zhao, I'm afraid it will be bad for you..."

"Of course I know that I am doing this just for the sake of Qin!"

"For the sake of Qin..."

King Qin was silent again, but Bai Qi was doing it for Qin, not for the current Qin, but for the future Qin.

However, I am afraid that when the countries attack Qin in the future, they will definitely record all their hatred on Bai Qi.

King Qin Yingji was silent for a moment, but in the end he said nothing. He just waved his hand and said, "You go and see my sister first..."

……

Bai Qi left Zhangtai Palace and followed the waiter towards the direction of Huizhi Palace.

Bai Qi has never been to Huizhi Palace. Today is the first time that he has seen the place where Princess Xia once lived.

Among the many palaces in the Qin Palace, Huizhi Palace looks very ordinary, and many decorative items still retain the style of King Wen's period.

"Wu Anjun, please..."

The waiter brought Bai Qi to the Huizhi Palace, and then respectfully invited Bai Qi to enter.

However, Bai Qi fell silent and stood in front of the palace gate, unable to take this step for a long time.

After all, he couldn't accept in his heart that Princess Xia had passed away.

Finally, he stepped into the palace garden.

The mourning cloth was hung high, and the waiters and maids were all wearing mourning clothes. In the simple palace garden, a flower garden looked particularly lonely in the bleak autumn wind.

Especially the sycamore tree on the side, with its dead leaves falling, is infinitely desolate.

Bai Qi stepped on the dead leaves and made a small rustling sound. He looked towards the pavilion and saw a black bird.

"Master..."

Bai Qi opened his mouth and looked at Bai Zhi.

"Inside, go in."

There was nothing more to say, Bai Zhi just let him in.

Seeing this, Bai Qi nodded slightly, and then walked into the palace.At this time, a simple mourning hall had been set up in the palace. When Bai Qi entered, he saw the waiter holding an ice mirror and putting it into the room.

Then, Bai Qi's eyes fell on the innermost part, and he saw a coffin placed inside. He suppressed the sadness in his heart, walked forward slowly, and looked inside the coffin.

"Princess Xia..."

He murmured in a low voice and saw the lifeless person inside. Suddenly, everything felt so unreal.

……

Bai Zhi didn't notice how long Bai Qi stayed inside. When Bai Qi came out, he didn't see any tears on his face.

Didn't seem to cry.

Also, for some people, sadness does not appear as crying, but may be in other ways.

He came to Bai Zhi and asked, "Princess Xia..., could you say anything?"

Obviously, Bai Qi wanted to know whether Princess Xia had any last wishes or words.

"not at all."

Bai Zhi shook his head, but said: Princess Xia may seem strong, but deep down she just wants the most basic things...

"In her last moments, Princess Xia called out to her mother..."

……

……

At the same time, the five eastern kingdoms secretly united again, with the Emperor of Zhou as the leader, secretly gathering troops, preparing to attack Qin when Qin destroyed Zhao Yuanqi and was seriously injured!

Among them, Emperor Zhou sent [-] troops, which was the most active alliance. Driven by the emperor's suggestion, the army set off and headed to the west!
