Xinzheng, post house.
After a secret conversation with King Qin, Han Fei came here immediately without even the slightest hesitation.
"Senior brother came to see me. I wonder if I have any advice? Has the relationship made progress?"
Li Si was not surprised by Han Fei's arrival. After all, the troubles the other party faced now basically came from him. Although based on his understanding of Han Fei, the other party should not admit defeat so early, but this did not affect his condescending tone when he said:
"If it's for official business, then I'll welcome you very much; but if it's just to reminisce about old times, you and I have special status now and should avoid suspicion. Please forgive me, senior brother."
"Hey, junior brother, you are worrying too much."
Han Fei waved his hand and said, "Although I'm not here today for official business, I'm not here to catch up with you either. I told you when we said goodbye in the academy that no one should show mercy to anyone who becomes a rival in the future."
"It's good that you haven't forgotten, senior brother,"
Li Si nodded, "Then what else can make you come here in person?"
"I met a noble man,"
Han Fei raised the corners of his lips and revealed a mysterious smile, "I want to introduce him to you."
"Noble?"
Li Si frowned slightly.
With Han Fei's identity, he could not think of anyone else who could be called a noble person except those high-ranking officials and nobles who were truly at the top of the Seven Kingdoms.
Being born with such deep connections was one of the reasons why Li Si was jealous of Han Fei.
"good,"
Han Fei seemed a little excited, and even stretched out his hand to pull him, "Let's go, don't come back when the opportunity is too late. It would be a pity not to see you now."
Li Si half pushed and half followed Han Fei to the backyard of Zilanxuan.
"Go ahead, the man is inside."
After Han Fei left a word, he turned around and left directly, putting Li Si in a dilemma.
However, after a moment of hesitation, Li Si regained his confidence: "I am an envoy of the Qin State. Not to mention Han Fei, no one in the whole of Korea dares to do anything to me. What is there to worry about?"
He straightened his clothes and pushed the door open.
But just one second later, the confidence Li Si had just built completely collapsed.
Just as Gai Nie closed the door, he fell to his knees with a pop and stammered: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"
"Get up, just call me Mr. Shang."
Qin Wangzheng in white robes turned around and looked down at Li Si, who was lying on the ground. "You serve Father Zhong, which is equivalent to working for me."
These words seemed to be an insult to Li Si. After all, his identity as an envoy was obtained by Mao Sui's self-recommendation to Lu Buwei, and he actually had nothing to do with Ying Zheng.
But Li Si didn't dare to make such a dangerous statement.
His eyes moved slightly, and his thoughts were changing in an instant, and then he put on a posture of prostrating himself and said respectfully: "All power is given by the king, and Li Si is loyal to only the king!"
This was a decision he made after careful consideration in the shortest possible time.
Although within the current Qin State, the King of Qin has not yet taken charge, and power is still in the hands of Prime Minister Lu Buwei. It seems that the risks of taking refuge in Ying Zheng far outweigh the benefits.
But for one thing, there are so many talents under Lu Buwei's command, and Li Si left too late, making it difficult to find his own place there. On the contrary, Ying Zheng is now in a difficult situation. It seems that he only has one available person, Gai Nie. The icing on the cake is always inferior to providing help in times of need.
Secondly, no matter how powerful Lu Buwei is over a country, his power is not justified by its name. Although he only had contact with King Qin for a few breaths, his impressive majesty and courage made Li Si willing to take a gamble.
The third thing is that Gai Nie is still standing behind without saying a word. Li Si is not willing to risk his life on whether the king in front of him is tolerant enough.
Sure enough, as soon as Li Si's words came out, Ying Zheng's eyes showed a hint of appreciation, and then he allowed him to accompany him.
…
…
At night.
Ying Zheng, Han Fei, Li Si, Wei Zhuang, and Gai Nie gathered together to discuss their current situation.
"Shang Gongzi's enemies exist within the Qin State,"
Han Fei picked up a chess piece and said, "However, the situation in the Qin State is complicated and complicated, so they can't let their hands and feet go freely. But when they arrive in South Korea, they have less worries."
"The one dispatched this time is said to be Black and White Xuanjian."
Gai Nie added the information he had, "The last time Xuan Jian was dispatched, the target was Chang'an Jun Chengyu, but this time he will only be more noble than him. And behind Xuan Jian there is a huge organization rooted in the Seven Kingdoms. That organization There are also roots in Korea.”
"Net, night..."
Wei Zhuang then said, "So for this assassination, Ji Wuye and others will definitely provide assistance."
While they were talking, a soft sound suddenly came from outside the door, causing Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang to press their swords and stand up at the same time, and the atmosphere in the room fell into silence.
"It came so quickly?"
Gui Gu Zongheng looked at each other, and both saw solemn looks in each other's eyes. After exchanging glances, Gai Nie still stayed in the house, while Wei Zhuang went out to investigate with Shark Tooth in hand.
The moment he pushed open the door, a flash of black light suddenly appeared and passed by Wei Zhuang's side.
He was startled and quickly turned around, only to see a tall figure carrying a pair of black and white swords appearing in front of Gai Nie.
"Black and white Xuanjian!"
Wei Zhuang subconsciously swung his sword towards the man, but was easily avoided by him. Then the man took two steps back and stood at the door, looking at the majestic figure in white clothes and white robe behind Wei Zhuang Gai Nie who was waiting for him. He knelt down half-kneeling: "See you, Your Majesty!"
This move was beyond everyone's expectations. Wei Zhuang and Gai Nie were also a little confused and stood guard with their swords raised.
"Are you Black and White Xuanjian?"
Ying Zheng's voice came slowly. Although he was in the same room with his assassin, there was no trace of panic in his tone. Instead, he was full of majesty and stability.
"Exactly."
Xuanjian nodded.
"So, are you here to assassinate me?" Ying Zheng continued to ask.
"Originally."
Xuanjian shook his head.
"What does this mean?"
Han Fei took over.
"The order I received was indeed to assassinate King Qin, but I don't intend to obey this order this time."
Xuan Jian explained, "My original plan was to pretend to agree, and then quietly take the king back to the country. As long as they return to the Qin Kingdom, they will not dare to be so arrogant again. It's a pity that someone saw through me on the way, and now I have become a trap." defectors.”
"oh?"
Ying Zheng was a little curious when he heard this. He already knew from Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang that this black and white Xuanjian was the world's top swordsman, "Why is this?"
"Although I am just a killer now, I also understand who Luo Wang is working for."
Xuan Jian said seriously, "Taking Qin's salary to assassinate the master of Qin goes against my beliefs."
"Black and white Xuanjian, I heard that he was a great swordsman in the world before joining the net. Now it seems that he can barely deserve this title."
Wei Zhuang commented dullly.
Although Ying Zheng didn't speak, the gentle look in his eyes clearly showed that his affection for Xuan Jian had greatly improved, and he asked him to get up and talk.
At this time, Gai Nie asked: "Since Luo Wang knows about your betrayal, they will definitely not let it go, don't you know?"
"You're right,"
Xuan Jian nodded, "Luo Sheng will definitely send more people to catch us all in one fell swoop. Taking into account my factors, there will be at least two Tianzi first-class people, or even more."
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere that had just eased solidified again.
