Zhao Weiwang in the Warring States Period

When he reached the entrance of the main hall, Jing Ke subconsciously stopped, and turned his head to look at the golden sun that had just risen in the east.

Very dazzling.

This may be the last time I see the sun

The eunuch's urging has already been heard: "Messenger, my king is already in the palace, please come in quickly."

Jing Ke withdrew his gaze, the expression on his face became calm, and he walked into the hall.

As soon as he entered the hall, Jing Ke could feel hundreds of gazes falling on him at the same time. Some of these gazes were curious, friendly, and peaceful, but more of them were arrogance.

A kind of arrogance that is inevitable and naturally born when a strong or a big country sees the messenger of a weak or small country.

Jing Ke stepped forward and stopped about thirty steps away from Zhao Dan.

This is etiquette, if we go further, it will definitely arouse the vigilance of Zhao Guojun and his ministers.

Jing Ke knelt down respectfully: "Yanchen Jing Ke, I have met the king!"

A Zhongzheng and peaceful voice came into Jing Ke's ears: "The envoy does not need to be polite, please get up."

Jing Ke stood up, raised his head, and saw the mighty King Zhao for the first time.

The gentle smile, the mature face, and the faint majesty between the brows, no matter from any angle, perfectly fit Jing Ke's imagination of Ming Jun.

Just looking at each other like this, Jing Ke actually had a feeling that he was about to be seen through.

Before that, Jing Ke felt that the so-called overlord king was nothing more than a pair of eyes, two hands, two shoulders and two legs.

But it wasn't until Jing Ke came to Handan by himself, entered the main hall of Longtai, and actually met the King of Zhao, that he realized that his previous thoughts were completely wrong.

It seems that there is an inexplicable force hovering in this hall, which shocks every outsider involuntarily, and makes the king sitting on the throne have almost boundless power.

Jing Ke even felt that this kind of power did not come from Zhao's millions of soldiers, let alone from Zhao's thousands of miles of land, but entirely from the King Zhao himself who sat quietly on the throne!

The king of the Zhao Kingdom seemed to be not much older than Jing Ke, but he just glanced at him so lightly, and Jing Ke suddenly had a feeling of being seen through from the inside to the outside.

Jing Ke lowered his head in panic.

Zhao Dan's voice came again: "What is the reason for the envoy's visit this time?"

Jing Ke took a deep breath and tried his best to calm down his tone: "Back to Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager and my King ordered Jing Ke to come here this time to give some gifts to celebrate His Majesty's birthday!"

Although after repeated contact, Jing Ke still couldn't help trembling halfway through his speech.

After all, I haven't seen the big scene yet.

Jing Ke's heart was beating very fast, and he seemed to have revealed a flaw. Will Zhao Guoren see through it?

The next moment, King Zhao's voice came to Jing Ke's ears: "Hey, you are also considerate and considerate. What gifts do you have?"

In fact, the gift list has already been delivered in advance, and Jing Ke knew very well that the reason why the king asked such a question was to let other ministers of Zhao State know about the "gift" sent by Yan State. Just showing off.

Of course Jing Ke had to cooperate with such an action.

So Jing Ke immediately took out a gift list from his bosom, and said respectfully, "Return to Your Majesty, this time the gifts from Yan Kingdom include a pair of jade pendants, a piece of blood coral, and the Land of Dukang!"

As soon as Jing Ke's words fell, there was an uproar in Zhao Guo's main hall.

"The Land of Dukang?"

You must know that the southernmost land of Yan State and Zhao State is the land of Dukang.

Once the land of Dukang is ceded to Zhao Guo, then Zhao Guo only needs to cross the Yongding River, and he can easily come to Jidu.

In addition, the land of Dukang is also the largest grain producing area of ​​Yan State, and it is also the most densely populated area of ​​Yan State except Wuyang City and Jidu.

Such a place was actually taken out by Yan State and ceded to Zhao State?

Can't figure it out, it's really hard to figure it out.

All the Zhao Guo ministers who heard these words were both a little puzzled and a little overjoyed.

In any case, since the envoys from Yan State have come, the matter of Yan State ceding Dukang's land is a certainty, and there will be no change.

It is definitely a great thing to be able to get Dukang's land without any effort.

Even Zhao Dan smiled a little when he spoke: "Oh? In this way, the King of Yan and the Queen Mother really have intentions. But to be honest, the widow is not rewarded for nothing. Maybe the land of Dukang was ceded to the widow for no reason?"

Jing Ke, who had been prepared for a long time, replied immediately: "Going back to the king, the country of Yan is willing to submit to the king and be the pioneer of the king. I just hope that the king will not add troops to the country of Yan, and Yan and Zhao will be good friends from generation to generation."

Zhao Dan laughed loudly and said: "Is that so? Very good, then you can go back and tell the King of Yan and the Queen Mother that this matter is for sure!"

Jing Ke could hear the joy in Zhao Dan's laughter, and everything seemed to be going well.

So Jing Ke hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, there is still a map in Jing Ke's hand, please allow Jing Ke to explain this map for you personally, so that Your Majesty can know how many resources and people there are in the land of Dukang ceded this time. To prove Yan's sincerity in seeking peace."

As soon as Jing Ke said these words, the hall suddenly became quiet.

Jing Ke stood there with his head down, almost able to hear the extremely rapid heartbeat in his chest.

Obviously only a few breaths have passed, but to Jing Ke, it seems that several years have passed.

Finally, Jing Ke got the answer he wanted to hear as he wished.

"It's so good, my widow agrees!"

Jing Ke let out a long breath, put the gift slip into his sleeve, took out a pair of scrolls from his sleeve, and started to move forward.

The figures of countless people flitted across Jing Ke's mind, and countless people's expectations and reluctance echoed in Jing Ke's heart.

His gait was a little wobbly at first, but gradually became stable. Under the watchful eyes of Zhao Guowu and all the officials in the hall, he slowly walked towards the supreme King Zhao.

Success or failure, in one fell swoop!

Chapter 8 Jing Ke Assassinates the King of Zhao

When he was about five steps away from Zhao Dan, an eunuch suddenly appeared and stopped Jing Ke.

Jing Ke stopped in surprise.

"Let's spread it here!" the eunuch said to Jing Ke very bluntly.

Jing Ke glanced at the eunuch, and handed one of the scrolls in his hand to the eunuch.

The eunuch is obviously also a very knowledgeable person, and he stood in place holding the scroll very cooperatively, and then let Jing Ke slowly pull the scroll away, and explained it to Zhao Dan by the way.

"Look, my lord, this is Zhuoyi, which is located in the west. It is the third largest city in the land of Dukang, with a population of [-] households; this is Linle City, the core of the land of Dukang. area, with population"
