Da Qin: Confucianism, Dharma and Taoism

After Jing Ke came to Xianyang, it was naturally impossible for him to directly break into the Xianyang Palace, take the head and the map, and call the King of Qin,"I am here to offer the treasure."

If this is true, I'm afraid he won't even be able to see the King of Qin, and the head and map will be taken away. The most he can get is some reward.

Jing Ke was not a reckless man. As a former disciple of one of Zongheng, he even learned more about politics and Zongheng than Ge Nie and Wei Zhuang.

If Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang were here, they might just use their swords to attack Xianyang Palace.

But Jing Ke understood that no matter how high his martial arts skills were, he would definitely die if he entered Xianyang Palace, and it would be impossible to complete his assassination goal.

On the way to Xianyang, he also made preparations in advance.

The first thing he did when he arrived in Xianyang was to go find a concubine of the Meng family with a gift of a thousand gold.

This person has some abilities. Although his official position is not high, he is trusted by Ying Zheng.

Before coming to Xianyang, he had already obtained some information from Yan Dan, such as that Meng Jia was greedy for money.

Jing Ke met Meng Jia as the envoy of Yan State, presented him with a thousand pieces of gold, and respectfully said:

"Mr. Meng, the villain is from the State of Yan. Entrusted by the crown prince of the State of Yan, he hopes to cede the city of Yan State and incorporate it into the territory of the State of Qin. He also offers the head of Fan Yuqi in order for the State of Qin to withdraw its troops."

When Meng Jia heard this, he thought, this is a good thing. You come here to surrender and come to me, and you also bring such an expensive gift weighing 930 yuan.

Not only can I get gold and silver, but I can also show my face in front of King Qin. So what about Meng Jia? Neng was not happy.

He immediately wanted to go to see the King of Qin with the map and the head held by Jing Ke, but was rejected by Jing Ke. He wanted to see the King of Qin in person and gave the gift as a token of surrender.

Meng Jia Although it was a pity, I didn’t think there was anything wrong with Jing Ke’s request.

After all, it would make the king happier than Jing Ke, a man from Yan State, to deliver the map and head himself.

Meng Jia didn’t even think about it. , immediately put on court clothes and went to Xianyang Palace, and saw Ying Zheng in Zhangtai Palace.

Ying Zheng didn’t like to be disturbed when he was working, unless something big happened.

He asked with a majestic look:"Jia Lai Zhang What's the matter with the few people in the palace?"

Meng Jia quickly bowed and saluted, said what Jing Ke said, and then said:

"Your Majesty, King Yan is afraid of your majesty. He wants the whole country to be the subjects of Qin, rank among the princes, respect the king as the emperor, and pay taxes like the counties of Qin, just to protect the ancestral temple!"

"But they (cebe) were too frightened to come to see the king in person, so they beheaded Fan Yuqi and prepared to present a map of the Dukang area of ​​Yan State. They sent an envoy named Jing Ke"

"Jing Ke was going to represent the State of Yan in the court, bow down and give these two things away to show his grandeur, and hoped that the king would agree."

Ying Zheng was overjoyed when he heard this. He didn't think there was any problem here.

At this time, both Han and Zhao were destroyed, especially the destruction of Zhao, which definitely shocked the world.

Facing Zhao with the national strength of Yan It is difficult for the country to deal with it, so how can it face the Qin army that is now a tiger and a wolf.

Ying Zheng thought that other countries would surrender, but he did not expect it to come so soon.

As long as Yan surrenders, it will shock several other countries, thus making The Qin State captured the entire land of China with as little war as possible.

Perhaps the soldiers at the bottom were willing to fight at this time so that they could achieve military merit and receive titles.

But as a ruler, Ying Zheng hoped to preserve his strength, and the war instinct It is a last resort.

Especially the reason the Yan State is looking for is also very reasonable. They just want to keep the ancestral temple, and Ying Zheng is generous enough for this kind of thing.

Anyway, it is to keep the ancestral temple. As for the Yan State to directly set up It only takes one or two generations to completely annex a county in Qin State.

But to take over the entire Yan State, you don’t need to do anything, just make a promise. Isn’t this a good thing?

Ying Zheng immediately said:"Okay, I agreed, and tomorrow I will arrange for nine guests to treat him with great courtesy, and I will not neglect the envoys of the State of Yan."

Since the other party is here to surrender, in order to express his respect, Ying Zheng will naturally face it with the highest standards of etiquette.

This is not a serious matter to Yan State, but is just a way to tell other countries. , our Qin State accepts surrender, and will let you surrender with dignity and will never insult you.

In this way, the obstacles for Qin State to unify the world will be much smaller.

Meng Jia received Ying Zheng's reply and left happily Ying Zheng did not want to work anymore today. He asked the eunuch to remove the documents in front of him, looked outside Zhangtai Palace, and sighed softly:

"Second brother, Gu Ye has avenged you."

……

After Meng Jia returned to his mansion, he told Jing Ke the good news and happily accepted the gift of a thousand gold coins from Jing Ke.

Even Meng Jia was so happy that he was ready to invite Jing Ke to play in Zilanxuan.

Jing Ke refused on the grounds that he was tired from the journey and said that he would wait until tomorrow to present the gift to Queen Qin and then go to Zilanxuan with Meng Jia.

In his words, Jing Ke also revealed his admiration for Zilanxuan, the most romantic place in Qin.

Although Meng Jia was a little regretful, he thought it would be okay for everyone to go to Zilanxuan tomorrow, so he sent Jing Ke out of the mansion in person. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

Well, I just don’t know if Meng Jia will still be talking about Zilanxuan after seeing what Jingke is going to do.

After leaving Meng Jia's mansion, Jing Ke went to a restaurant again.

When he asked Meng Jia to go to Xianyang Palace to find King Qin, he also asked Meng Jia to notify King Qin's swordsmanship teacher Gai Nie and ask him to come out and get together.

Jing Ke believed that with Gai Nie's character, he would definitely come to see him. The political filth in Xianyang would never erode Gai Nie's sword heart.

Jing Ke knew that he was bound to die, but he could not guarantee that he would be able to rescue his wife, so he was prepared to have a backup plan before he died.

And this back-up man is Gai Nie!

……

Jing Ke's trajectory in Xianyang was all under Ying Wei's supervision.

Even in the Xianyang Palace, because of Zhao Ji's presence, Ying Wei deployed a lot of people.

What Meng Jia said to Ying Zheng in Zhangtai Palace was turned into a letter and came to Ying Wei's desk that night.

And the news that Yan State sent envoys to surrender was spread throughout Xianyang as quickly as possible.

The King of Qin even summoned all the officials of the State of Qin to gather at the Qilin Hall tomorrow to treat Jing Ke like nine guests and accept the surrender of the State of Yan there.

Ying Wei shattered the document in his hand with a strange look in his eyes and muttered:"Brother Zheng, if you want to embarrass yourself, forget it. You have to gather everyone together to watch you embarrass yourself."

Ying Wei's face was full of gloating at this time, and he was ready to Tomorrow go and be a entertainer and watch the famous Jing Ke assassinate the King of Qin, carrying it on his two hairy legs..
