A knife in love

At this time, the guards and sergeants on the ship finally came to their senses, and hurriedly surrounded him with swords and guns in their hands, trying to dismember the body with the chaotic blade.But Qingji stopped the crowd, carried Yaoli to the side of the boat, held Yaoli's ankle with his right hand, dipped him head-down into the water, then lifted him up again, repeated this three times, and finally he was like a drowned chicken. Keep it off the deck.Qingji turned his head and said to his subordinates, "I have always considered myself a rare warrior in the world. This man dared to come to the army alone to kill me. He is also a first-class warrior in the world. How can we kill two soldiers in one day?" What about the rare warriors in the world?After my death, all the lords will find their own way of life, and stop thinking about avenging me.As for the prince who is about to leave, just let him go, no one is allowed to kill him.

After Qingji finished speaking, he passed away, his body still standing still.All the soldiers wept and bowed to the ground, although some people hated him to the bone, but no one dared to disobey Qingji's last words, so all the soldiers glared at him, but no one took his life.After Qingji's death, the morale of the army was dispersed. The generals and lieutenants fled to other countries one after another.

King Helu of Wu was overjoyed when he heard that Qingji had died and the army dispersed. He hurriedly asked Wu Zixu to bring someone to find him, claiming that he would appoint Yaoli as a high-ranking official and reward him with many gold, silver and jewels.To leave the resignation and accept it, he said to Helu, I killed Qingji, not for the sake of being an official, but for the peace of the state of Wu, so that the people would not be killed.What's more, Qingji treated me like a guest of honour, and treated me as much as a mountain, but I used despicable means to assassinate him, and I have stood faceless between heaven and earth.After finishing speaking, Yaoli took out the dagger hidden on his body, and committed suicide in front of Wu Wang Helu and Wu Zixu.

After Zhuan Zhu and Yao Li, two great assassins appeared, and the four were collectively called the Four Great Assassins of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.One of them was surnamed Nie Mingzheng, a Korean surname.He was entrusted by someone to assassinate Xia Lei, the Prime Minister of South Korea.Xia Lei knows that he has many enemies, and every time he goes out, he will be greeted and hugged, and officials and common people can't get close to him at all.Moreover, when Xia Lei travels, he wears armor under his official uniform, even if someone secretly shoots him with an arrow, they will definitely not be able to kill him.Nie Zheng followed Xia Lei for many days, but he was unable to do so. In desperation, he had no choice but to follow Zhuan Zhu's example and willingly degrade himself. He tried his best to sneak into Xiangguo's mansion, and finally assassinated Xia Lei.After he killed Xia Lei, in order not to implicate his family and friends, he was afraid that his face would be recognized by others, so he used a sharp knife to slash his face beyond recognition, so he committed suicide.

The last of the Four Great Assassins was named Yu Rang, who was born in the late Spring and Autumn Period. At the beginning, he served as a retainer of the Fan family of the Jin State, and later followed the Zhongxing family, but he never made a name for himself.Once he accidentally rescued a child who was almost trampled to death in the capital of the state of Jin. Zhibo, the powerful official of the state of Jin, saw him and appreciated him very much. He immediately summoned him and rewarded him with money. He praised it greatly.Yu Rang was a retainer in Fan's and Zhongxing's family, and he was never reused, he was just like a servant, but at this time, he was valued by the most powerful Zhibo in Jin, and he was really grateful.Uncle Zhi asked him if he would follow him, Yu Rang knelt on the ground without any hesitation, and vowed to be loyal to Uncle Zhi for the rest of his life.From then on, Yurang became Zhibo's retainer and was highly valued by Zhibo.Although he has no prominent background, Zhibo respects him very much and never speaks harshly to him.Yu Rang received such kindness from Bo Zhi, he regarded Bo Zhi as a great benefactor, and did his best to do things for Bo Zhi, and the two ministers were very harmonious.

At that time, the monarch of the state of Jin had already lost power, Zhi Bo monopolized the power, followed by Han, Zhao, and Wei.Zhibo was worried that the three families of Han, Zhao, and Wei would take away his power, and suppressed the three families everywhere. Be patient and wait for the time.Later, Bo Zhi forced Zhao Xiangzi, the patriarch of the Zhao family, to leave the capital of Jin and return to the fiefdom of the Zhao family. Taking advantage of Zhao Xiangzi's departure from the capital, he first wiped out the power of the Zhao family in the capital, and then gathered Han and Wei. The soldiers and horses of the Zhao family besieged the Zhao family's fief on a large scale.Zhao Xiangzi was unwilling to be captured without a fight, and led the Zhao family's children to resist desperately. However, Zhibo and Han and Wei's coalition forces were powerful, and the Zhao family's cities fell one after another. In the end, there was only one city left. Wei Sanjia broke through.

Seeing that the entire Zhao family was about to be annihilated, Zhao Xiangzi sent his confidants to meet the heads of the Han and Wei families in desperation, and told them that Uncle Zhi wanted to replace the king of Jin and stand on his own, but he only hindered Han, Zhao, and Wei. The power of the three families is not weak, so there is no rebellion.Now the Zhao family is about to fall. After Zhibo succeeds, the next step will be to destroy the Zhao and Wei families.Only when the three families of Han, Zhao, and Wei join forces can they not be harmed by Bo Zhi.

The patriarchs of Han and Wei are not fools, so they naturally knew what Zhibo's plan was. After hearing what the envoy sent by Zhao Xiangzi had said, they made an alliance with the Zhao family, agreeing that the three families would join forces to destroy Zhibo and divide up Zhibo's wealth. Money and land.After the three families made a covenant, the Han and Wei families retreated in the dark and left. Zhao Xiangzi led the Zhao family's troops out of the city to attack Zhibo's men and horses, and defeated Zhibo utterly.The Han and Wei families also turned against Zhi Bo, and the three families joined forces to besiege Zhi Bo, eventually destroying the Zhi family and dividing up Zhi Bo's family wealth and land.

Although Zhi Bo was dead, Zhao Xiangzi couldn't let go of his hatred. He boiled Zhi Bo's head, stripped off his muscles and hair, and made the skull into a drinking cup. Come out and serve wine to show off.After the news spread, the world said that Zhao Xiangzi was too cruel, and it was not the way for a gentleman to act.

After Zhi Bo's defeat, his retainers sought their own way of life. Some defected to Han, Zhao, and Wei families, while others fled Jin and chose other safe places to hide.Yurang hid in the deep mountains at the beginning, intending to hunt the rest of his life by chopping firewood, but when he accidentally heard that Zhao Xiangzi made Zhibo's head into lacquerware to hold wine, and showed it off everywhere, he was really heartbroken. He vowed to assassinate Zhao Xiangzi and avenge Zhi Bo.

Yu Rang was determined to avenge Zhi Bo, changed his name and surname after going down the mountain, sneaked back to the capital, and haunted Zhao Xiangzi's mansion every day, waiting for an opportunity to assassinate Zhao Xiangzi.It's just that the Zhao residence is heavily guarded, and Zhao Xiangzi is extremely vigilant, so he has never had a chance to strike.Later, when Yurang heard that Zhao Xiangzi's house was going to repair the toilet, he pretended to be a carpenter and sneaked into Zhao Xiangzi's house.On that day, Zhao Xiangzi happened to come to the latrine to go to the latrine. Yu Rang thought that the time had come, so he hid in a corner of the latrine, planning to kill Zhao Xiangzi while he was in the latrine, in order to repay Zhi Bo for his kindness.
