Ying Zheng urged his horse and ran to Han Fei's temporary residence alone without letting his entourage follow him.
I saw two rows of sergeants outside the courtyard wall. Their expressions were similar to those of the guards at the city gate. They were both nervous.
After receiving the news, Li Si waited at the door and pulled Ying Zheng through the door.
"Your Majesty, something is not right about this," Li Si said.
Ying Zheng pulled Li Si to a place where no one was around and asked in a low voice: "What's going on?"
Li Si leaned close to Ying Zheng's ear and said in a deep voice: "It's Xi, it ran out."
"Ah?!" Ying Zheng didn't believe it before, but now he was sure.
Li Si made a silence gesture and said, "Although Wei Chen did not see it with his own eyes, according to the description of the witnesses, it is Xi Qian's work, which is certain."
Ying Zheng took a breath and murmured: "Just last night, we were checking the terrain of Lishan Mountain together. How could it..."
"There must be a mystery here." Li Si said, "Let's take a look at Han Fei first."
Ying Zheng nodded and quickly followed Li Si into the house.
Han Fei's face was bloodless and breathless on the bed. A long sheet was tightly wrapped around his chest and abdomen, with blood oozing out from it.
"Han Fei!" Ying Zheng came to the bedside with a slight cry.
Han Fei's brows twitched and his eyes rolled twice inside his eyelids, but he still couldn't open his eyes.
Ying Zheng looked at Li Si and asked, "Were you able to save him?"
Li Si shook his head and said: "A few ribs were broken, the liver was ruptured, and the damage to the intestines was even more serious. The bleeding was stopped, but nearly half of it was lost."
Seeing Han Fei's miserable state, tears welled up in Ying Zheng's eyes: "Xi, Xi, why is he like this?"
Li Si analyzed: "According to the agreement between the two clans, the guardian beast cannot leave the place it protects without authorization, and it cannot be seen by the people, otherwise it will be severely punished. But Xi unexpectedly appeared in the capital. If he is not crazy, he will die."
Ying Zheng's thoughts were drawn back to two years ago: "Just like Liu An."
Ying Zheng has always had a grudge against Liu Bang's brother Liu An being forced to death by Xi.
"Yes." Li Si said, "This is an iron rule set by the two clans, but Kan Xi's behavior did not hurt anyone randomly. It seemed that he only came for Han Fei. Your Majesty, what happened between you two? "
Ying Zheng's tears finally fell silently down his cheeks: "It was me... I was the one who harmed Han Fei..."
Immediately, Ying Zheng Jiang Xi begged him to keep "my weapon" and explained it in detail.
"That's it." Li Si sighed and said, "It seems that it is resentful, but it doesn't dare to do anything to you, so it can only vent its resentment on Han Fei who made the suggestion."
Ying Zheng felt more and more guilty and begged, "Sir, please save him, okay?"
"Weichen was on good terms with Han Fei. If Weichen hadn't recommended him, he wouldn't have come to Xianyang and lost his life. When it comes to guilt, Li Si is more guilty than the king." Li Si frowned and said, "But he is a mortal after all. , no one can save himself."
Ying Zheng looked straight at the weak Han Fei, feeling extremely unwilling.
Li Si continued: "For the current plan, we can only ask Wei Chen to use acupuncture to wake him up and ask him what else he wishes for. However, this may also hasten his death."
Ying Zheng hesitated for a moment and said, "Let's give it a shot. It's better than dying in a coma."
Li Si responded, took out a medical needle, and applied needles to several large acupuncture points of Han Fei.
After a while, Han Fei slowly opened his eyes, his pupils were quite dilated.
Li Si hurriedly took the diluted Linggu Dan potion that had been prepared in advance and fed it into Han Fei's mouth bit by bit.
After taking the potion, Han Fei's eyes regained some clarity.
"Your Majesty..." Han Fei, who was already stuttering, had a weak voice.
When Ying Zheng heard these two words, his heart trembled.
You must know that Han Fei used to call him "King of Qin", but now he changed his name to "King", which shows that he has already made up his mind to obey his orders.
Li Si said: "Drink all this potion and you will regain some strength. If you have anything to say, just tell the king."
Han Fei gasped and opened his mouth.
Li Si slowly fed a whole bowl of potion into Han Fei's belly.
Han Fei calmed down for a while and felt that his strength had recovered a little, so he said slowly: "Your Majesty... I... I'm afraid I may not be able to survive..."
Ying Zheng's eyes turned red again, and he choked and said, "You lost your life because of me. Tell me what you wish for, and I will agree to it."
A smile appeared on Han Fei's lips: "Did that strange beast come because of...'my weapon'?"
Neither Ying Zheng nor Li Si said anything, which was regarded as acquiescence.
"Sure enough, it is similar to the... graphics on the weapon." Han Fei was so smart. The moment he saw Xi, he realized that the totem on "my weapon" was drawn and engraved according to the strange beast in front of him!
Whether he guessed what happened while in a coma, or whether he heard Ying Zheng's story in a daze, Han Fei seemed to know why he was attacked by the strange beast.
"Don't worry." Ying Zheng said, "I will not change my decision and will definitely smelt all my weapons."
Han Fei's smile became even brighter: "Then thank you...Thank you, Your Majesty. However, I have two small requests."
"Say it, no matter what your request, I will agree to it." Ying Zheng said.
Han Fei first looked at Li Si, then looked at Ying Zheng, and then said: "Please... Your Majesty, be kind to King Han and the people of Han in the future..."
Ying Zheng was stunned immediately.
Obviously, Han Fei said this because he had foreseen the future of South Korea.
He no longer dares to hope against the Qin Dynasty. The only thing he can ask for is that after Qin annexes South Korea, the King of Qin can treat the King of Han kindly, especially the Korean people.
When he was dying, the first thing Han Fei thought of was not himself, but others, and it was the King of Han who didn't like him very much.
"Okay!" Although he was a little surprised, Ying Zheng did not hesitate, "If Great Qin is lucky enough to defeat South Korea in the future, I will definitely not embarrass the King of Han, and will give him another fiefdom to let him enjoy his old age. As for the Han people... ...You also know that I have always cared about the common people in the world and will not favor one over another."
Han Fei smiled happily, and then said: "Also, Han Fei is not very knowledgeable in this life... but he still has some unique insights. Please, Your Majesty... give all my life's learning to Han Fei's Descendants..."
"Is there a designated candidate?" Ying Zheng asked.
Han Fei's smile faded and he shook his head slowly.
He had no children and only had one daughter.
"Leave it to the most destitute person in the Han family... maybe it can change his life."
"Okay, I promise you this." Ying Zheng turned to ask, "I wonder where you put those works of yours?"
"Ahem..." Han Fei endured the pain and coughed twice, then said, "Just put it in the darkroom of the bedroom of my old house."
Ying Zheng said: "Okay, I will send someone to get it back and put it in my secret room for safekeeping."
Han Fei smiled and seemed a little weaker after expressing his wish.
[He would not have thought that a few years later, a young man from the Han family would become the most miserable person in his mouth because of being humiliated. 】
"One more thing..." Han Fei said more and more lightly, "This way of death is a bit... a bit embarrassing... Please ask the king to give Han Fei another way to die, being bitten to death by a strange beast. This... is really unacceptable. …”
In fact, he didn't need to say anything, Ying Zheng would definitely block all news about Xi, but how to inform the world about the cause of Han Fei's death was indeed a problem.
No one could have imagined that Han Fei's only request for himself was this.
Seeing Ying Zheng nodding in agreement, Han Fei showed a satisfied smile again, but this smile was already extremely weak and stiff.
Under the gazes of Ying Zheng and Li Si, Han Fei could only breathe out and no more in. After slowly closing his eyes, he finally became completely quiet.
The sound of needle drops could be heard in the room, as if time had stopped, and the only sound left was the sound of Ying Zheng's tears dripping onto the hem of his clothes.
Li Si's eye circles were already moist, and he reached out to cover Han Fei's face with the sheet.
Ying Zheng lay beside the bed and burst into tears.
Perhaps it was a pity that I could not get help from this talented person.
Perhaps he felt sorry for Han Fei's talent.
Or maybe I feel sorry for the people in the world.
This was the second person who died because of Xi. Ying Zheng had more unwillingness and resentment in his heart.
Liu An just broke the rules, so let's forget it, but why should Han Fei?
Who has he provoked? He can't control whether "my weapon" stays or goes.
Thinking of this, Ying Zheng raised his head, wiped away his tears, and hit the edge of the bed with his fists: "Xi, you are really going too far!"
In addition to anger, there was also hatred in his words.
"Your Majesty, I have sent people to track it down." Li Si said, "Fortunately, looking at the footprints, it is not in the city."
"He must have returned to Lishan." Ying Zheng said, "I want to talk to Yaizhen, and you should follow me."
Li Si looked at Han Fei's body and said, "Since Xi has not harmed the people again, let's not rush and take care of Han Fei's funeral first."
Ying Zheng nodded and said: "Pass on the order, give Han Fei a grand burial with marquis etiquette, and send someone to bring his family and works to Xianyang."
Li Si accepted the order and then asked: "What about his last request just now?"
Ying Zheng thought for a moment and said, "Let's do this. Let's announce to the outside world that Han Fei is unwilling to work for me, so I put him in a cell. He went on a hunger strike and died in the end."
"One Sword Dominates"
"This..." Li Si questioned, "Wouldn't this ruin the king's reputation? If South Korea comes to ask for someone, we won't be able to satisfy him."
Ying Zheng sighed softly: "Now that the matter has come to this, we don't care about our reputation. As for King Han, if he dares to cause trouble, I don't care if I fulfill Han Fei's wish first."
Li Si thought for a while, but couldn't think of any better way. It seemed that this was the only way to deal with it.
Ying Zheng opened the door, called the captain guarding the gate, and asked, "Has Han Fei's matter been spread in the city?"
The captain replied: "Back to the king, Mr. Li blocked the news immediately, and the witnesses were also controlled."
"Very good." Ying Zheng praised, "This matter must not be made public, otherwise the people will panic. Nowadays, strange beasts hurt people, and we cannot just sit idly by and ignore it."
"Call the team guarding the east gate, follow me to Lishan Mountain, and destroy the strange beast."
"Go and call Meng Yi now, and leave the rest of the affairs in the city to him."
The captain knelt down and accepted the order.
Ying Zheng looked back at Li Si and said, "Let Zhang Yong bring 'our army' with me. I want to see if Xi sees 'my weapon' and he still can't stop talking about it!"
