The turmoil in South Korea did not affect Zhao Jia.
Just as he guessed, Han Fei and Ji Wuye chose to conceal the truth. Even if they knew that the death of the Korean crown prince had something to do with Bai Yifei, they did not dare to expose the matter. Han Fei did not want to see Korea completely in turmoil, and Ji Wuye Wuye doesn't want to break up with Bai Yifei over a dead man.
Bai Yifei controls one hundred thousand elites in South Korea. He is also a hereditary marquis in South Korea. His position in the army is more stable than Ji Wuye.
What's more, they had never seen Bai Yifei kill the prince with their own eyes.
After all.
When your status and power reach a certain level, if others want to move you, you have to think about the consequences and whether you can bear it.
In a quiet courtyard.
Zhao Jia and others were bathing in the moonlight, admiring the bright moon in the sky, sipping fragrant tea, and the atmosphere was leisurely and contented.
Yan Lingji held her chin up and played with a strand of hair in boredom. Her aqua blue eyes looked even more dreamy under the moonlight. Her fair skin was flawless. Her moist lips were slightly pouted as she glanced at Zhao. Jia, murmured softly: "It's so late and I still can't sleep~"
Zhao Jia raised his head slightly, glanced at Yan Lingji, and said, "Are you in a hurry?"
"Yes, I'm in a hurry. I don't know when the young master is going to eat me~"
Yan Lingji was also a little embarrassed now. She looked at Zhao Jia with tender eyes and tenderly extended an invitation. She seemed to want to change the way of getting along.
"Tianze is free."
Zhao Jia ignored Yan Lingji's invitation and unhurriedly told a piece of news that she didn't know yet.
A flash of surprise flashed across Yan Lingji's pretty face, her eyes couldn't help but blink, and she looked at Zhao Jia in confusion, somewhat doubting that she heard wrong. She hesitated and said uncertainly: "You... What do you mean?"
"Today, I personally gave him the antidote. Now he is completely free."
Zhao Jia looked at the shocked Yan Lingji and said softly.
Yan Lingji's fine eyebrows furrowed slightly, and her beautiful eyes stared at Zhao Jia's beautiful face suspiciously. She did not doubt Zhao Jia's words, but she didn't understand why Zhao Jia did this. Don't say anything for her. Now Yan Lingji has become Zhao Jia's prisoner, but she is not qualified to raise any conditions.
Zhao Jia is not a good person.
Zhao Jia didn't know Yan Lingji's evaluation of him. He continued: "I have always been sincere to you."
"The sincerity that the young master said...is it just to get me?"
Yan Lingji took a breath, looked a little more serious, and asked.
"Yes and no...but I do like your beauty."
Zhao Jia admitted it frankly.
Yan Lingji has a somewhat fierce personality. Just like she likes to play with fire, her passion is not something that ordinary people can afford. There are many examples of people who burn themselves while playing with fire. Yan Lingji is the same way. If you don't have the ability to control her, even if you get her, it will be useless. court death.
Zhao Jia is more greedy. Not only does he want people, he also wants Yan Lingji's heart.
It's a pity that Yan Lingji's current thoughts have been focused on Tianze, the abandoned prince of Baiyue.
It's easy to get Yan Lingji, but it's hard to conquer her.
Yan Lingji smiled when she heard this, her smile was very beautiful, and she glanced at Zhao Jia like a coquettish person, "Young master, you are honest~"
"The days are still very long. Lies can deceive for a while, but they cannot deceive forever. Therefore, I have been sincere from the beginning. It's a pity that you people are too unruly."
Zhao Jia sighed softly, seeming a little helpless that Yan Lingji, Tianze and others kept breaking the agreement.
"But the most unruly people are you Central Plains people!"
Yan Lingji pondered for a while, her smile faded, and she spoke in a low tone, as if she was thinking of things that happened many years ago.
For her, following Tianze has never been because of Tianze's personality charm, but because Tianze can lead Baiyue people like them to take revenge, because Yan Lingji's relatives all died in the fire that year, These are all done by people from the Central Plains.
In this world, in addition to interests that can bind people, hatred can do the same, even more directly!
"I'm not that kind of person."
Zhao Jia promised softly.
When Da Siming heard this, his eyes could no longer remain calm. He couldn't help but glance at Zhao Jia. In terms of her understanding of Zhao Jia, perhaps among the girls present, she was the only one who really understood. His woman.
Yan Lingji rolled her eyes at Zhao Jia. She was no longer a little girl. How could she easily believe Zhao Jia? Is there no other purpose for sending the antidote?”
Rather than believing that Zhao Jia was doing it for her, Yan Lingji was more willing to believe that Zhao Jia was doing it for the Red Lotus Princess in South Korea.
"But you can't deny that I did give the antidote to Tianze."
Zhao Jia looked matter-of-fact. The purpose of sending the antidote to Tianze this time was more for getting jade and future plans, and it really had little to do with Yan Lingji and others.
Yan Lingji looked at the overly honest Zhao Jia and didn't know what to say for a moment.
Zhao Jia gave her all the bright cards, so she didn't know how to say something sarcastic even if she wanted to.
She had nothing to say.
Zhao Jia, however, talked a lot. He continued: "Now that Ze Ze is completely free, this is a good thing and a bad thing. If he takes this opportunity to leave South Korea and return to Baiyue, he may be able to live well, but if he continues to choose revenge on South Korea , what may greet them will be destruction.
Although South Korea is weak, it is still one of the seven countries.
It cannot be subverted by a few people in Tianze. "
Yan Lingji didn't show any surprise when she heard this. Instead, she said extremely calmly: "...Maybe, but we people are already dead."
From the moment they chose to take revenge on South Korea, they were prepared to die at any time.
How can a few people defeat a country?
This is a matter of striking an egg against a stone, but they have nothing to fear. As long as they can make the enemy feel pain, it will be worth their while even if they die.
There was a pause.
She suddenly looked at Zhao Jia with a cute look, and asked curiously: "Why, the young master can't bear to leave?"
"You are mine now."
Zhao Jia gave an answer.
Yan Lingji smiled brightly, and the branches of her smile trembled. After a moment, she rolled her eyes at Zhao Jia and hummed: "That's not necessarily true, unless the young master can avenge me and destroy South Korea~"
She opened her mouth and made a request that she felt Zhao Jia could not fulfill.
"Women are indeed liars, especially beautiful women."
Zhao Jia inexplicably thought of Zhang Wuji's damn words. Yan Lingji was like a little wild cat. She would instinctively extend her claws to any stranger who came near. She was not the kind of cat that could be petted casually.
Yan Lingji's smile became brighter and more charming, and she didn't seem to worry at all about what Zhao Jia would do to her. After all, if Zhao Jia wanted to do anything to her, he could have done it long ago. Now she couldn't resist, and the other party could do whatever he wanted.
Zhao Jia ignored Yan Lingji and continued drinking tea with his head down, while thinking about Qin's affairs.
A lot of things have happened in Qin recently.
Among them is one thing that Zhao Jia is more concerned about. For example, Li Si has emerged. He was recommended by Lu Buwei and now serves as the chief history officer of the trial. He pays homage to the guest. This is considered a real entry into the palace. Although he is not qualified to participate in this game of power. But he is already qualified to serve as a chess piece.
Li Siben is a person who loves power. All he lacks is an opportunity and a stage to display his talents.
In addition to this matter, there was another thing that attracted Zhao Jia's attention.
Let’s talk about the affairs of Qin and Yan.
In the early years, Lu Buwei wanted to attack the State of Zhao to expand his fiefdom in Hejian, so he sent Lord Gangcheng Cai Ze to serve as a minister in the State of Yan. After three years of his efforts, the King of Yan actually agreed to send Prince Dan to Qin. The country is a pledge, and now this matter has begun to ferment in the two countries. It won't be long before Zhao Jia can see this old brother in Qin.
Think of this.
Zhao Jia accidentally thought of the Mohist giant Six Finger Black Man and the giant order he left for himself.
In addition to these more important things, there is another thing worthy of Zhao Jia's consideration. That is, the Qin State is preparing to send envoys to Korea. At the same time, the Zhao State's envoys have also moved. The two countries have no intention of entering Korea. It goes without saying.
Zhao Jia's desire to marry Princess Honglian finally triggered the diplomacy of the three countries.
Zhao Jia learned about this matter from Luo Wang's intelligence network. It would obviously take a few days for South Korea to get accurate information.
'Will Ying Zheng still enter Korea? '
Zhao Jia came up with this matter without thinking about it. At present, the possibility is a bit low.
Lu Buwei was already eyeing him.
In the original work, the treatment Ying Zheng received may be his turn.
. . . . . . . . .
Time passed slowly, and the death of the South Korean prince was not concealed after all, causing an uproar in both the government and the public.
Most critical.
Tianze and others are still missing.
In such an atmosphere, envoys from Qin and Zhao came to Korea one after another. Among them, the envoys from Qin were the fastest and seemed to be more concerned about the marriage than Zhao.
After all, he was responsible for this marriage under the orders of the Queen Mother of Qin.
"finally reached."
The Qin envoy showed his head from the car window and looked at the approaching South Korean border with a smile on his face. With his status, he would definitely receive preferential treatment as long as he entered South Korea, and he would definitely be able to relax a little to understand this. The journey was tiring.
As for the marriage between Zhao Jia and Princess Honglian, in his opinion, it was never a troublesome matter.
After all, Zhao Jia's status here is enough to be worthy of being a princess of a country.
What's more.
Zhao Guo also sent people.
It's only right that they are anxious. Why should he, an envoy of Qin State, be anxious?
But there was one thing that he was quite curious about, and that was why Zhao Jia was so favored by the Empress Dowager Zhao Ji of Qin that she actually asked him to urge Zhao Jia to return to the country as soon as possible. The urgency could not be faked.
Really puzzling.
The envoy of the State of Qin put down the curtain of the carriage and couldn't help but marveled in his heart. Speaking of this eldest son of the State of Zhao, he was really a legendary figure.
From the prince of Zhao to the deposed prince, he later entered Qin as a hostage, and now he is the Marquis of Changxin.
This resume is enough to amaze everyone in the world.
Regardless of whether the Queen Mother and the King used him or not, the other party was unprecedented in being able to reach this point.
At this moment, a tragic death cry suddenly came from outside the carriage, which frightened the Qin envoy. Before he could react, the curtain in front of the carriage was opened, and a cold and evil face came into view. His eyes, those snake-like eyes, made him freeze.
"Qin's envoy... South Korea should like this gift!"
The visitor's eyes were dark and his voice was low.
The words fell.
A dark shadow shot out from beside the visitor, directly piercing the Qin envoy's heart.
…
"Pitter patter~"
A light rain fell silently, silver light enveloped the world from time to time, and the roaring sound was endless.
now.
On the trail, a simple carriage stopped in the middle of the road. Drops of bright red blood slid down the gaps in the carriage, mixed with the rain, and dripped on the ground. There were several guards wearing black armor from the Qin army around it. Falling in a pool of blood, the strong smell of blood filled the air, allowing the rain to wash away.
A guard on the South Korean border looked at this scene with a livid face, and there was a bit of fear deep in his eyes. He did not expect that someone would dare to assassinate the Qin envoy at the junction of Qin and South Korea. How dare the other party dare!
"General."
Not long after, a scout who got into the car to check came out and shook his head at the guard, indicating that everyone was dead.
"damn it!"
The guard couldn't help but cursed angrily when he heard this. At this moment, he felt that the autumn rain was terribly cold, and his whole body seemed to be frozen. Hearing the result that he had guessed a long time ago, it was still hard to accept, because of the consequences. He couldn't bear it. Once this matter spread back to Xinzheng, his position as general would be almost over.
There may even be life-threatening consequences.
This was a completely unreasonable disaster. Who would have thought that the Qin envoy would be assassinated here? It was like rubbing the faces of the two countries on the ground.
South Korea may be able to endure it, but can Qin?
At that time, Qin will definitely ask South Korea for an explanation!
"who!"
At this moment, the soldiers around him suddenly roared, and at the same time raised their long swords and pointed them at the carriage.
On the top of the carriage, a man with iron chains wrapped around his body and snake scales on his skin was squatting half-crouched on the top of the carriage. His stern face was expressionless, like a king cobra with its head raised, overlooking the place below. Everyone, the iron chains around their bodies were twisting like living creatures, revealing a few things that looked like snake heads. They opened and closed their mouths slightly, making a sound of intertwining gold and iron.
The moment they saw this person, everyone present felt as if their necks were being held tightly. A suffocating feeling surged into their hearts, as if they were being targeted by some terrifying creature, and chills rushed up their spines.
"Tell your king and generals that this is just the beginning, not the end."
Tianze stood up slowly, looking down at the soldiers below with an indifferent expression, as if he just regarded the people present as messengers, said something coldly, and disappeared from the place in a flash. For these people As a soldier of ordinary people, he has no desire to kill.
The targets of his revenge were never these soldiers.
