Beast Taming: Starting from Contracting the Mysterious Beast

"Your Majesty, the box contains the head of Fan Yuqi, a rebel general of the Qin Dynasty."

Qing Ke placed the square brocade box on it, gently lifted the top of the box, revealing a shrunken head pickled in lime, with eyes wide open and fear still in the eyes. The familiar face could be vaguely seen.

Ying Zheng was unhappy, but smiled.

"Yes, it is Fan Yuqi."

"Thank you, Yan State, for getting rid of this beast for me."

Qing Ke placed the head on the ground, picked up the long brocade box and smiled.

"Your Majesty, you are joking. Our Yan State has decided to be a vassal of the Qin State. The King of Yan also asks to abolish the title of King. In the future, there will be no distinction between Yan and Qin. There will only be Qin and Yan. The traitors of Qin are the traitors of Yan. Why thank you? Your Majesty is too strange."

Qing Ke's tone was steady, with a hint of complaint, but it did not make people hate him. Instead, it made a group of scholars and officials quite useful and praised him.

Ying Zheng knew that Qing Ke came to assassinate him.

But after hearing what he said, he couldn't help but sigh. This man is really talented. If it weren't for the great resistance in the court and the voices against attacking Yan, he really didn't want to go this far. As long as Qing Ke's assassination became a reality, even if Ying Zheng loved talents, he couldn't keep him anymore, otherwise it would cause trouble for himself and Qin.

"Your Majesty, this box contains the map of Du Kang in Yan. I am here under orders and would like to present this place to your Majesty and to the Qin State."

Qing Ke bowed and wanted to step forward with the brocade box in his hand.

"My envoy, please open the brocade box first."

A eunuch beside Ying Zheng stepped forward and blocked Qing Ke's way.

Qing Ke had expected this, opened the brocade box, and took out the map rolled together.

Seeing this, the eunuch stopped blocking him and returned to his original position.

Qing Ke came to the opposite side of the table with the map in his hand, facing Ying Zheng.

He glanced at Ying Zheng, quickly lowered his head, and untied the knot of the map.

Ying Zheng watched this scene silently without saying a word.

So, Qing Ke unfolded the map and introduced Du Kang.

Even though the officials in the court could not see the map, they all knew that Du Kang was the richest place in Yan State. They all smiled happily after listening to Qing Ke's introduction.

"Ah!"

Suddenly, there was a cry of surprise.

On the high platform, Ying Zheng stood up and retreated.

Qing Ke missed his attack, kicked over the table in front of him, and shouted angrily.

"The tyrannical Qin should perish!"

"There is an assassin!"

Ying Zheng exclaimed.

This cry woke everyone up.

The officials wanted to protect the emperor, but Ying Zheng ran to the other side and quickly moved away from them.

"Protect the emperor!"

A scholar shouted.

A team of black-armored Qin soldiers rushed in from outside the door, but seeing the scene on the high platform, no one dared to go up.

"What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and subdue the assassin!"

Li Si scolded.

"This..."

The Qin soldier sergeant who led the team looked at the long steps in front of him and hesitated.

Qin law was strict. Without the order of the King of Qin, scholars and officials could not easily go up the long steps, let alone carry weapons.

"Fuck, this Yan envoy is actually an assassin!"

"Fuck +1"

In the live broadcast room, there was also a storm.

"Sister Zhou, come on, don't you have a sword?"

"Do you want to watch little Ying Zheng die?"

Bai Shu didn't speak, her knuckles turned white holding the hilt, but she followed Ying Zheng's order yesterday and didn't act rashly.

Ying Zheng, who was running away on the stage, came to a beam that several people could hug.

"Tyrant!"

Qing Ke rushed over with an angry curse.

Ying Zheng dodged and fled around the beam. Qing Ke was anxious behind him. The two ran and chased, scolding and shouting, and they didn't know how many rounds they chased.

At the bottom of the steps, Li Si was extremely anxious. Just as he was about to run up to help regardless of breaking the law, he suddenly heard someone shouting behind him.

"The king carries the sword, the king carries the sword!"

"Finally he is here..."

Ying Zheng, who was fleeing, was relieved when he heard this.

He suddenly stopped, reached for his shoulder with one hand, grasped the sword on his back, and pulled it out fiercely.

Ding...

With a crisp sound, the dagger that Qing Ke stabbed was blocked.

He staggered and almost fell.

Ying Zheng did not continue to flee, but turned around and stabbed with a sword. The sword tip cut through the air and directly left a cut on Qing Ke's calf.

Qing Ke's leg hurt and he finally fell to the ground.

"Hahaha, what a pity, what a pity!"

Qing Ke knew that he had no chance, but he still jumped out and stabbed Ying Zheng with a dagger. This dagger was quenched with poison. As long as a cut was left on the King of Qin, there would be no medicine to cure it.

Unfortunately, he only stabbed a ball of air. After Ying Zheng hurt him, he turned around and ran away.

"Protect the king!"

Ying Zheng shouted.

The hesitant Qin army sergeant below heard this and led his men to the high platform without delay.

Several soldiers stared at Qing Ke all the time. Seeing that he was still struggling to get up and wanted to continue to assassinate him, they were furious and chopped Qing Ke into minced meat without hesitation.

Blood flowed down the long steps, and everyone was terrified.

"Ah!"

Qin Wuyang, who stayed at the bottom of the stairs, looked at the blood flowing down and could no longer hold back his fear. He screamed and turned around to escape.

"Capture him!"

The scholars and officials remembered at this time that although the envoy was dead, there was still a deputy envoy. They stepped forward and took down the unarmed Qin Wuyang. They beat him with fists and feet again. If Li Si hadn't stopped him in time, I'm afraid Qin Wuyang would have turned into minced meat.

"Your Majesty, are you okay?"

Li Si knelt on the ground and asked nervously.

Ying Zheng walked out from between several Qin soldiers and stood in front of the ministers intact.

Only then did everyone breathe a sigh of relief.

"My dear ministers, the assassin this time is an envoy of Yan State. I am afraid that it is related to King Xi of Yan!"

Ying Zheng's expression changed and he said solemnly.

Even the scholar-officials who strongly advocated keeping Yan State did not dare to speak for Yan State at this moment.

"Your Majesty is right!"

Li Si said: "This time Yan State sent assassins to assassinate my king. If Yan is not destroyed, Chu State, Wei State, Qi State and even Dai State will have the courage to send assassins to Xianyang in the future. They must be destroyed!"

"Yes."

Ying Zheng responded and his eyes fell on Qin Wuyang.

He knew the general process, but the ministers did not know, and he needed to be told by others. This person is a good candidate.

Qin Wuyang was thrown in the hall with his hands tied up, trembling all over.

Feeling someone looking at him, he raised his head carefully, only to meet a pair of young but deep eyes.

"Ah, it's not my intention to come here. When Prince Dan ordered me to go on a mission, he didn't mention the matter of assassinating the king. Even if I have the ambition and courage, I dare not assassinate the king. Please spare my life..."

Before Ying Zheng asked, Qin Wuyang, who was already in fear of death, had explained everything clearly.

Knowing that this matter was entirely handled by Prince Dan of Yan, the ministers were extremely annoyed.

"Your Majesty, Yan will be destroyed. Why not let the King of Yan hand over Prince Dan first, so that the rest of the villains can be deterred!" Li Si suggested.
