single husband's heart

In the autumn of [-] BC, Qin State, Xianyang.

The palace people discussed in private, saying that the concubine Meng Jia is in a good mood these days.

Although he still has a straight face towards the palace people, his control is a little looser.The maid serving the king accidentally fell asleep during the night watch yesterday, which is usually a big mistake - if no one answered when the king called for someone, the palace maid might be killed with a stick.But yesterday, after the concubine caught the palace man who was sleeping secretly, he was only fined three months' salary.

Like something to be happy about.

But the busy palace people will not go any further after they are relieved.It has nothing to do with them if the concubine has any happy event, for them, it is enough to just live in peace and protect themselves.

Xia Wuju listened to these gossips with a smile, his face was calm, but his heart was like a mirror.

The bribery of Jing and Ke was obviously successful.

"Prince..." Xia Wuqi sat at the table and raised his hand to pour water for the person opposite.

"Huh?" The other party raised his eyes slightly, his eyes just swept over Xia Wuqi lightly, but he bit the end of the voice instantly. "Why don't you have a long memory?"

"Uh, Medical Officer Ji..." Xia Wuqie stuttered and called out the name he was using now to Prince Dan.

Half a month ago, Prince Dan, who was supposed to control the overall situation in Yan Kingdom, appeared in Xia Wuqie's room "out of thin air", scaring Xia Wuqie seriously. After recovering, he kept begging Prince Dan to leave immediately.

Seeing his panic-stricken appearance, Prince Dan felt a little funny, and thought of playing tricks on him at that time.

The next morning, Xia Wuqiu had to leave Prince Dan alone in the room, and went to the pharmacy nervously.However, as soon as he arrived on his front foot, Prince Dan followed him on his back foot.

When Xia Wuju was thinking about how to explain the identity of Prince Dan, Doctor Dong spoke first: "This is the new Doctor Ji?"

"It's right here." Yan Dan smiled and glanced at the petrified Xia Wuqi. "I'm new here, and Doctor Xia didn't wait for me, and asked me to find my way for a long time."

"No, since he is your roommate, please take him with you more." Doctor Dong said.

It was only later that Xia Wuqie realized that Yan Dan was not unprepared.With his medical skills and contacts, he obtained the qualification of official medical officer of Qin Palace.Because only one medical officer Xia Wuqi lived alone, and the other buildings were full, so the "new medical officer Ji" was assigned to Xia Wuqiu's room as a matter of course.

"The prince didn't notify me in advance..." Xia Wuqie, who had experienced ups and downs in mood, complained softly.

"Wu Qi has known me for more than [-] years, what did I do unprepared?" Yan Dan smiled lightly. "But I was joking with you, and please don't take it to heart."

"Of course not..." Xia Wuqi shook his head.After he breathed a sigh of relief, he became suspicious again. "It's just the prince, what is your business in Qin Palace?"

"You'd better call me Doctor Ji, I'm afraid the walls have ears." Yan Dan instructed. "As for what's going on with me, why not make a guess?"

guess?

Xia Wuju frowned and thought hard.Jing Ke and Prince Dan came to Qin State almost at the same time, but they did not act at the same time. Could it be explained that their purposes are different?

Half a month passed in a blink of an eye, but Yan Dan still didn't tell Xia Wuqiu her purpose, and she just seriously took care of the palace servants every day, as if she had become a real medical officer.

Back at the library that night, the two sat facing each other, Yan Dan holding a scroll in his hand.Xia Wujue couldn't bear it anymore, and raised his doubts to Yandan again.

"Ji, Doctor Ji, what is the purpose of your visit this time? Is it... the same purpose as Jing Qing and the others?"

Yan Dan put down the bamboo slips, looked at Xia Wuqie a few times: "What do you think?"

"This subordinate... thinks otherwise, but I can't guess what other reasons you have."

"Hey..." Yan Dan sighed. "I sneaked into Qin Palace, no one knows except you and me."

"What!?" Xia Wu was taken aback.

"Wuqiu," Yan Dan interrupted Xia Wuqiu's unspoken remark. "Do you think Jing Ke's trip will be successful?"

Even though Xia Wuju suspected that Yan Dan was changing the subject, seeing his serious expression, he put aside his worries about Yan Dan and began to think carefully.

"Jing Qing has superb martial arts skills and courage, there is no doubt about it. But I don't understand why you didn't want to wait for Jing Qing's friends to arrive, but instead sent a half-grown child to follow? In my opinion, if Jing Qing Acting with his friends, the chances of success are much greater."

"You are not an impatient person who is eager for quick success. You are absolutely clear. Your arrangement seems to be...deliberate, to prevent Jing Qing from being successful."

"No, let me ask you." Yan Dan looked down at the water glass, but didn't take a sip for a long time. "You can be regarded as having known him since childhood, and you can also be regarded as sharing troubles and sorrows with him. Are you willing to watch him die?"

Of course Xia Wuqiu knew who the "he" referred to here.

"Wujue will naturally have a heart of compassion, but..." Xia Wuqiu was a little confused.Personal love and hatred must give way to the great cause of the country. This is what he has learned from Yan Dan over the years, and he has always regarded it as the truth and adhered to it.

Now, Prince Dan, who told him these truths, is going to give up the country of Yan that he has always been loyal to because of his own personal relationship?

"Of course I won't abandon my family and country's great cause just because of some entangled feelings. That would be an insult to myself, and... let him down to his understanding of me." Yan Dan's voice slowly sank.

This building is located in a remote place, and it is silent at night.The candle on the table case was almost burning out, and it made crackling noises from time to time.Xia Wuqiu looked at Yandan's thin cheeks, and found that her face was so pale under the dim light, she couldn't ask the question "Then why did you bother to keep him alive?"

"Since there is a chance to kill him, why do you want to spare his life?" Yan Dan knew what Xia Wuqi was thinking, and answered without waiting for him to ask.

"I'm the prince of Yan, and I can't give up my people. The situation is critical now. Sending someone to assassinate King Qin is for the people of Yan and for myself. I must get a prince. Only then can I have a clear conscience."

"But I also know that Ying Zheng cannot die."

A gust of night wind blew, the candle flickered a few times, then went out with a bang, and the room fell into darkness.However, no one has the intention to relight the candle.

"It has been hundreds of years since King Ping of Zhou moved eastward to Luoyang, the Zhou royal family declined, the princes fought in chaos, and the people were in dire straits. The unification of the Central Plains is the general trend, and neither you nor I can stop the people's will. Anyone who wants to go against the sky will have to It's just a mayfly shaking a tree."

"There must be one person who can wipe out the six kingdoms and unify the world. The country of Yan is at the end of the road. Even if I have ambitions, I can't bring it back to heaven, but Zheng—the country of Qin under his leadership can do it."

"He lacks a reason to attack Yan, so I will give him an opportunity."

Yan Dan's voice trembled imperceptibly.

Let Jing Ke assassinate Qin, it is the duty.But he wanted to help Ying Zheng to unify the world?

Xia Wujue suddenly realized that the man in front of him had read poetry and books, was proficient in the six arts, but had no choice but to be full of ambitions, but he was destined to fall with his sense of responsibility, along with Yan Guo, who had come to a dead end.

Xia Wu and involuntarily held his breath.

What kind of perseverance and reason should he have to make such a decision?Liberating Yingzheng's way of life has made the world a success, but it has pushed him to a dead end with his own hands!

"You..." Xia Wuqi was silent for a long time, his mind was in a mess, and he didn't know how to speak. "Are you actually determined to die? Then..."

"Yeah, I have to die. I knew this a long time ago. But I have to wait for a good time. After all, my death can't be worthless." Yan Dan trailed off, and Xia Wuqiu heard it I don't know whether to sigh or sigh. "No, you and your senior brother, as well as other people who have dedicated themselves to me, I will arrange the way out for you, and you don't have to follow me to die for the country of Yan..."

"Even if I go with you, it would be an absolute honor!" Xia Wuqie said with a sob.

"Really, at this age, I'm still the same as when I was a child, crying whenever I want." Yan Dan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Those things are still early, so don't think about it first."

"En." Xia Wuqiu also felt a little ashamed, turned his back and wiped his tears with his sleeves.He didn't ask the question he wanted to ask again until he felt that his voice would no longer be crying.

"What is the purpose of your coming here?"

"Why..." Yan Dan smiled wryly. "Nothing. Maybe I just want to get closer to him, and if I have a chance, I'll take a peek at him again."

"In my life, for the sake of the country and the people, I have never done anything at will. This time, let me be willful for a while."

A few days later, Ying Zheng promulgated a decree to set up a ceremony of nine guests in the main hall of Xianyang Palace to receive envoys from the Kingdom of Yan.

It is said that the two envoys brought the head of the rebel general Fan Yuqi and the map of Du Kang of Yan State, and expressed that King Yan was willing to submit to Qin State.The king of Qin was very happy, and he attached great importance to these two people, and ordered all civil and military officials to attend.The medical officers were also arranged to obey orders in a corner of the hall, with the exception of Xia Wu. As the accompanying medical officer, he had to follow Ying Zheng's side.

Xia Wuju looked at Yan Dan who was weighing the herbs, and felt very complicated.

If Jing Ke's actions are successful, Jing Ke, Qin Wuyang and Yan Dan, the main envoys, will be famous in the country of Yan and will last forever.

It's a pity that letting Jing Ke's actions fail and destroying the country of Yan is the decision that Yan Dan has to make despite his heartache.

No matter what the result will be in a few days, Yan Dan will not be happy.However, it was enough for him to be able to look at that person from a distance for the last time.
