The setting sun crept up into the sky, and the dead leaves carried by the wind broke the silence of the outer hall.
After a long moment of silence, the beauty, who was alone facing the eclipse moon, forced a smile on her pale face and said softly: "Thank you for your hard work along the way, Zhang Yi."
The sound of the bells reaches the ears, but those who hear it are like a cold winter wind.
A look of shame suddenly appeared on Zhang Yi's face. He once boasted that he was a famous political advisor who could defend the world's princes with his words and swords. At this time, he was silenced by the woman's soft words.
He felt empty in his heart and didn't know how to reply.
"You can go back." Mi Bazi vomited slightly from the corner of his mouth again.
Zhang Yi felt helpless and full of shame.
However, he can't do anything now...and doesn't dare to do anything.
He did not dare to say any more, he stood up and bowed respectfully: "Princess, I hope you will cherish her."
"Well..." The princess responded.
Before leaving the outer hall, Zhang Yi couldn't help but look back... Once he saw the princess under the sunset, she lay on the bed and didn't know what she was thinking...
…
Zhang Yi came out of the house and did not stay in Handan for long. He said goodbye to the officials of the Ministry of Rites of Zhao who came to practice, and then left Handan and returned to Qin.
The trip to the State of Zhao, entrusted by the King of Qin, has been completed, and he has also obtained the credentials to form an alliance with the State of Zhao to fight against Qi.
But till now, there is always a feeling of worry in Zhang Yi's heart, and that feeling makes people uneasy.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but lift the curtain and look out of the car... What he saw was still the prosperous and orderly Handan City, but now it was far behind the car; on both sides of the carriage were hundreds of people. A well-dressed and armored guard cavalry.
Everything was as usual, the cool breeze was blowing in the air and the water in the river was rippling.
But if it is abnormal, maybe it is, but Zhang Yi doesn't know what to say. During this trip to Zhao State, he found that the Zhao State that once huddled in a corner was completely different.
Its changes are not as strong as Qin's, let alone Qi's prosperity.
He didn't even know how to describe that feeling.
It is more dynamic than the Qin State after Shang Jun's reform; it is more domineering than the Qi State after Zou Ji's reform.
This is Zhang Yi’s heartfelt emotion.
The elite cavalry of more than 200 people beside him will always send them out of the Zhao Kingdom. Although there are only more than 200 people, Zhang Yi believes that no matter what accident happens during the hundreds of miles, he can enter safely. Within the territory of Qin.
He had never seen such a special army, with a majestic body and an imposing maw. More importantly, he could see their inner self-confidence and invincible fearlessness from the eyes of these knights.
He has never seen any country's army with the momentum of this cavalry.
He also believed that no army of any country would want to be an enemy of Zhao Jun at this time.
Under such power, who can have the heart to resist?
Feeling of fear! Instantly came to Zhang Yi's heart.
The princes of the various countries may not realize it when they are constantly attacking each other. The Zhao State that once emphasized not to fight with it, the Zhao State that seemed harmless to humans and animals, the Zhao State that repeatedly emphasized protecting the land for the people, and claimed to uphold justice... has suddenly become an unrivaled behemoth. The ambition behind it may engulf the world.
At this thought, Zhang Yi felt helpless and painful. He knew clearly about King Zhao's ambition, but he did nothing to restrain his growth.
The princes of various countries are fighting endlessly, Qi, Chu, Yan, Han, Wei, Qin, Zhongshan, Song, Yue, Ba, and Shu. Now which country is willing to fight with Zhao? Zhang Yi was once proud of his political skills and sophistry. On the diplomatic level, he had now been completely defeated by Zhao without even fighting.
Zhao State seems to have a big hand that invisibly covers the whole of China. Its external expansion and the pace of its wars seem to predict the enemy's opportunities every time, and the timing is always just right.

Now look at the battles between the countries: Qi and Chu united with Song and Vietnam to fight against Qin, Wei, and Han; Ba and Shu were in chaos; the destruction of Zhongshan was not far away.
Only Zhao Guo tasted all the sweetness in the melee and still bore the name of justice.
King Zhao welcomed the clan of Yan State into Zhao, which made Zhang Yi keenly aware that Zhao State had begun a new round of layout.
Taking advantage of the civil strife in Yan and uniting with Zhao to fight against Qi and Chu, Zhang Yi and even Qin King Yingsi thought they had taken advantage of it. When Qin annexed Bashu, it would be the day when the Qin people reorganized the country... However, he did not know until now that All this was planned by the State of Zhao. The State of Zhao had already opened the bag and was waiting for the State of Qin to jump.
I just don’t know, when the layout of this chessboard with all the people in the world as chess pieces is completed, will Qin still have a chance to survive?
Qin... Ying Si... the king who once obeyed his advice is now in the sunset.
Can Qin really be able to resist these powerful cavalry?
From the fact that Ying Si asked him to welcome back Mi Bazi and his son, it is not difficult to see that the once wise and powerful King of Qin has become a mess.
Yu Gong, the Qin State has already registered Gongzi Dang as the crown prince, and will no longer abolish or establish him at this time of turmoil.
For personal reasons, Zhang Yi still prefers to make Gong Ziji the crown prince. Although Gong Zi Ji's return to Xianyang to seek the throne may cause turmoil in the Qin State, if the prince becomes the king of Qin in the future, Zhang Yi's current status will be completely destroyed, and he may not be able to return it. You will end up with a ruined reputation.
He and Mi Bazi were old acquaintances, but the most important thing was that he was at odds with Queen Qin's Wei family.
However, King Zhao did not let him go, which was beyond his expectation.
He did not believe that King Zhao could not see this opportunity to cause trouble to Qin Ting; even if King Zhao himself could not see it, couldn't the entire Zhao Ting and his senior brother Su Qin see it?
It can be seen that Zhao Guoxin's layout must include the Qin State, or it may itself be aimed at the Qin State, and the plot must be not small, otherwise how could they give up such a good opportunity.
Zhang Yi suddenly felt a little unwilling. In the past, he broke bamboo to write and was humiliated by Wei and Chu. Finally, he finally had a country that allowed him to realize his lifelong ambition.
However, now that Qin is declining day by day, the political and political strategy he has spent his whole life studying has been repeatedly frustrated. In fact, he has always been dissatisfied with his senior brother Su Qin in his heart. He does not think that his talent, knowledge and wisdom are inferior to his senior brother.
However, the situation of the two phases was completely different now, and he didn't even know where he went wrong.
Zhang Yi is really unwilling to give up his half-life struggle for Qin, not to mention that he has suffered so much infamy for Qin. Even if he defected to another country, which country would take him in, and which country would believe in his loyalty?
The one who once called out: "Zhang Zishi is a native of Qin." 'Ying Si, King of Qin.
The once high-spirited king has passed away soon.
As he thought about it, Zhang Yi couldn't help but recall the evening before he went to Qin as an envoy. The frail King of Qin spoke to himself like a child, as well as the silk letter handed to him.
