From the moment he betrayed Ying Zheng, he had already guessed that there would be such a scene. Although he tried his best to change everything, he still died in the end.

After calming down, he first arranged for the remaining 1000 guards to escort his wife, daughter and young royal family out of Shouchun.

Then all the ministers, maids, servants, etc. were dismissed.Since it was the end of the road, there was no need for so many people to be buried together.

With them here, maybe Chu State still has the hope of making a comeback in the future.

In just one day, the entire palace became empty, only dozens of people were left unwilling to leave, willing to accompany him, the last king, to die together.

King Chu Xiong Qi sat on the steps outside the palace, looked up at the sky, his face was expressionless, only tears fell from the corners of his eyes from time to time.

Then he stood up and went back to the hall, washed up carefully under the service of several attendants, and changed into a neat crown robe.

He maintained the last bit of dignity as a king and walked towards the end of his life

Chapter 385 The First Day of Sword Manual

Two days later, Meng Tian led his cavalry into the palace.

But at this time, the original splendid palace had been emptied, leaving only the chilled King Chu and a few buried palace people.

Mi Qi had already thought of such an ending on the day when he betrayed Qin, but he was still unwilling to be caught by the Qin army, so he chose to die to save the last bit of face.

Meng Tian ordered his body to be transported to Xianyang and handed over to King Qin.Then the soldiers were asked to evacuate all the valuable and portable things in the palace, and at the same time, many people were sent to find a copper box.

However, a few days passed, and still no clue was found.

Meng Tian frowned. Before the expedition, Qin Wang Yingzheng gave himself and Wang Jian a task, which was to find the copper box in the hands of the Chu royal family.

However, after looking through the palace, there was not even a shadow of a copper box.

"Could it be taken away?"

Meng Tian thought in his heart.

It's a pity that the king of Chu, Xiong Qi, is dead, otherwise he could have asked about this matter from the other party's mouth.

However, coming to the Chu Palace was not fruitless. In addition to a large amount of treasure, he also found a sword.

This sword is named Tianwen, it is extremely sharp and mighty, it ranks first in the sword manual!

Meng Tian intends to dedicate this famous sword to Yingzheng. In his heart, only his own king is entitled to possess this kingly sword.

Outside Shouchun City, Wang Jian looked at the flag of Qin State swaying in the wind on the top of the city, feeling rather complicated.

This military flag was inserted by Meng Tian himself, the opponent couldn't help breaking through the city gate, and rushed into Shouchun first, killing the defender Xiang Rong.

In all fairness, Meng Tian's contribution this time is no less than his own, and his performance is quite outstanding.

Daqin was able to have such an outstanding young general, he was sincerely relieved, and he couldn't help but feel emotional.

He whispered to himself: "What a Meng Tian, ​​the Meng family has a descendant..."

Ten days later, in the Xianyang Palace of Qin State.

Looking at the battle report from Meng Tian and Wang Jian, King Qin Yingzheng laughed out loud without hiding his joy.

He is very happy at this moment, even happier than when he became King Qin.

The demise of the Chu State means that there is no longer any force on this land that can stop the Qin State.

Although Qi and Yan are still there, the great unification has become inevitable, at best it is just a matter of time.

Ying Zheng picked up the Heavenly Question Sword presented by Meng Tian, ​​and raised his hand to hold it in front of him.

A soft chant sounded, and the long sword was unsheathed.

Looking carefully at this famous sword, looking at the young and handsome face reflected on the blade, the corners of his mouth involuntarily raised slightly.

Now I am just 30 years old, and I have already wiped out five of the six Shandong countries in just 17 years of reign.Domination of the world is within sight.

The long-cherished wish that Qin people have failed to fulfill for hundreds of years will be realized in the hands of Qin Wangzheng.

Even a person like Ying Zheng would inevitably be immersed in excitement at this moment, but he soon came back to his senses.

Now is not the time to be proud. Although Han, Zhao, Wei, Yan, and Chu have perished one after another, he only got a copper box.

It stands to reason that Canglong Qisu is divided into seven parts, which are controlled by the seven royal families.

But apart from Yan's, there is no trace of the copper boxes kept by the other countries, as if they disappeared out of thin air.

Regardless of the others, Chu State has just been captured, and the copper box is not far away, so it needs to be tracked with all its strength.

As for the direction of tracking, there is already a target.

Although Chu was defeated this time, some members of the royal family and important figures still fled.

Among them is the young master of the Xiang clan.

According to Ying Zheng's estimation, the copper boxes should be on these people's bodies.

Immediately, he ordered that all remaining members of the Chu royal family and the Xiang clan be wanted, and no one should be let go...

And while Ying Zheng was thinking about Canglong Qisu, Wang Jian and Meng Tian were not idle either.

Although the state of Chu had been conquered and most of the army was defeated, there were still many lands in the east and south that had not been conquered. They continued to attack after resting for a while.

Another month has passed

Because the king of Chu had already committed suicide, most of the remaining soldiers in Chu State did not have much intention of resisting, and there were even many who directly surrendered the city.

Therefore, the Qin army did not waste much effort, and took the rest of Chu's territory into its pocket.

Since then, all the land in Chu has belonged to the territory of Daqin, and Chu, which has lasted for hundreds of years, has also withdrawn from the stage of history.

After completing the mission, the two did not stay too long, and returned to the court with the remaining 20 Qin army troops.

Ying Zheng met the two in person and hosted a banquet for them.

For such a great achievement, they naturally received a lot of rewards.

Wang Jian's title has reached its peak, and there is nothing to confer, so the King of Qin bestowed a lot of gold, silver, silk, houses and land to comfort him.

And Meng Tian was also promoted to be the chief minister, only one step away from the Marquis.

In addition, the tens of thousands of iron cavalry who accompanied him to attack Chu this time were also assigned to his command, and named "Golden Fire Cavalry!"

This kind of reward is not insignificant, and anyone with a discerning eye can see how much Ying Zheng loves and favors Meng Tian.
