Chapter 759: A man will die for his friend! Jing Ke assassinates the King of Qin!

Tianmu also continues to introduce the legendary assassins of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.

【Next is Yu Rang. 】

[Yu Rang was originally a retainer of Zhi Bo of Jin State. Zhi Bo held him in high esteem and treated him as a distinguished official.]

【Later, Zhi Bo was defeated in the struggle with Han, Zhao, and Wei, and was killed by Zhao Xiangzi. 】

[The Zhi clan was exterminated, and the head of Zhi Bo was made into a wine vessel by Zhao Xiangzi.]

[After Yu Rang heard the news, he was filled with grief and anger, and he vowed to avenge Zhi Bo.]

[It also said the famous saying that a man will die for his confidant, and a woman will dress up for the man she loves.]

[Yu Rang first disguised his identity and hid in the toilet to assassinate Zhao Xiangzi. ]

【The result was a failure.】

【Zhao Xiangzi was moved by his loyalty and pardoned Yu Rang.】

[After being pardoned, Yu Rang did something that horrified everyone. ]

[He covered his entire body with lacquer to make his skin ulcerate, and swallowed red-hot charcoal to destroy his vocal cords! ]

[It was to avoid being recognized and to find another opportunity to assassinate. ]

【Then, he lay in ambush under the bridge that Zhao Xiangzi had to pass through, ready to strike at the right moment.】

【But fate always seems to play tricks on him. 】

[Zhao Xiangzi's horse got startled when it reached the bridge, and Zhao Xiangzi noticed something was wrong.]

[They sent people to search and caught Yu Rang. ]

【Zhao Xiangzi looked at Yu Rang, who was determined to die in order to avenge his former master, and could not help but admire him.】

[He asked Yu Rang: "You also served the Fan clan and the Zhonghang clan before. They were destroyed by Zhi Bo. Why didn't you avenge them, and why did you remain so devoted to Zhi Bo?"]

Yu Rang answered firmly: "Mrs. Fan and Mr. Zhonghang treated me like an ordinary person, so I treated them like an ordinary person."

[“But Zhi Bo regarded me as a national hero, so I must repay him with the behavior of a national hero.”]

【Finally, Yu Rang asked Zhao Xiangzi to take off his clothes and let him stab him a few times, so as to fulfill his wish of revenge for Zhi Bo.】

【Zhao Xiangzi was moved by his loyalty and agreed to his request.】

[Yu Rang stabbed Zhao Xiangzi's clothes three times, and then shouted: "I can go to the underworld to see Zhibo!"]

【After saying this, he cut his own throat and died. 】

[Later generations have praised him in poems: "Women dress up to please themselves, and men die for their friends. How great is Yu Rang, who was able to achieve this goal!"]

[Yu Rang also used the most extreme way to interpret what it means to be a peerless national talent! ]

Barrages of comments appeared one after another.

It can be seen that compared with Yao Li before, the style of barrage on Yu Rang's side is completely different.

"Since ancient times, the lands of Yan and Zhao have been full of generous and tragic people..."

"Why did Yu Rang do this? I don't understand."

"Because of morality, many actions at that time seemed incredible."

"Yu Rang is not a professional assassin, he is a soldier who seeks revenge for his master."

"What kind of hero is Yu Rang? He is just a foolish loyalist."

"A man will die for his confidant, and a woman will dress up for the man who pleases her. Zhi Yao treated him as a national hero, and I should repay him with a national hero."

"Yu Rang is the most admired of the assassins."

"Didn't Yu Rang fail? What's there to brag about?"

"What Sima Qian admired more in his biographies of assassins was their righteousness rather than their professional ability."

"Zhao Wuzha is right. Morality that is out of date is stupidity."

"Yu Rang also knew it, but he just had to stick to morality."

……

And outside the sky.

Liu Bei said with emotion in his voice:

"Yu Rang, in order to repay Zhi Bo's kindness, did not hesitate to disfigure himself and swallow charcoal, sacrificing his life for justice."

"Knowing that revenge is difficult, he never backs down. Such integrity is moving."

"Such loyalty and perseverance are rare in the world!"

Liu Chan on the side also nodded in agreement:
“I really admire it.”

"It's just that the path of revenge that Yu Rang chose was too tragic. He lost his life and ultimately failed."

"The kid doesn't quite understand."

Liu Bei shook his head slightly.

"You can't say that. Yu Rang values ​​the kindness of being recognized and appreciated."

"In his heart, revenge for Zhibo is more important than his own life."

Liu Bei's thoughts drifted back to the past, thinking of those kind-hearted and ambitious people who followed him but had a rough fate.

I just feel:
What a blessing!

……

The sky continues.

【Now let’s look at Qi. 】

[Nie Zheng was a chivalrous man when he was young. After killing someone, he fled to Qi with his mother and sister and made a living by slaughtering pigs and selling meat.]

[At that time, Han Guo doctor Yan Zhongzi and Han Guo Xiangguo Xia Lei had a feud. In order to take revenge, Yan Zhongzi looked for a capable person everywhere. ]

[After hearing about Nie Zheng's reputation as a chivalrous man, he went to find Nie Zheng with a large amount of gold and silver treasures.]

[Give Nie Zheng extremely high treatment, arrange for Nie Zheng's sister's wedding leave, and support Nie Zheng's mother.]

[I hope he can help assassinate Xia Lei. ]

[Nie Zheng was very grateful for Yan Zhongzi's appreciation. ]

【But he felt that he still had a mother to support and could not take risks easily, so he rejected Yan Zhongzi. 】

[Later, Nie Zheng's mother passed away. After three years of mourning, he remembered Yan Zhongzi's kindness to him and decided to avenge him.]

[Nie Zheng came to Yangdi, the capital of Han, alone, holding a sword.]

[Although he is called an assassin, Nie Zheng is more like a berserker. ]

[He broke directly into Xia Lei's mansion.]

[At that time, Xia Lei was protected by many guards, but Nie Zheng showed no fear and rushed towards Xia Lei like a black lightning.]

[He stabbed Xia Lei to death with one sword with the force of a white rainbow piercing the sun.]

[Then he started a fierce fight with the guards around him, killing dozens of them in a row.]

[But Nie Zheng knew that it would be difficult for him to get out alive today. ]

[In order not to implicate his sister, he destroyed his appearance with a sword, dug out his eyes, and finally committed suicide by cutting his stomach open.]

[When Nie Zheng's sister Nie Rong heard about this, she guessed that the assassin was most likely her brother.]

[In order to prevent her brother's reputation from being buried, she resolutely went to Korea.]

[Crying beside his brother’s bloody body: “This is my brother Nie Zheng!”]

[Everyone passing by in the market said, "This man assassinated the prime minister. The king offered a reward of a thousand gold coins for his name. Madam, haven't you heard about it? How dare you come to identify him?"]

[Nie Rong responded: "I heard about it. But the reason why Nie Zheng was willing to endure humiliation and mingle among the vendors in the market was because his old mother was still alive and I had not yet married."]

[“Now my mother has passed away and I am married.”]

[“How can I bury my brother’s reputation because I’m afraid of being killed?”]

【Then, Nie Zheng's sister committed suicide next to Nie Zheng's body.】

[Nie Zheng broke into the prime minister's residence alone, and his courage without fear of life and death became an eternal legend in the martial arts world.]

[And the deep friendship between Nie Zheng and his brother has become a legend that has been passed down through the ages. ]

The sky paused briefly at this moment.

The sound of "The wind is whistling, the Yi River is cold, and the hero will never return" was heard in the background.

It's heart-stirring.

Then Tianmu said slowly:
【The last one. 】

[He is probably the most famous assassin in the world. ]

[Jing Ke - the man who scared Qin Shi Huang to death.] [At the end of the Warring States period, the power of Qin State was growing stronger and stronger, and it was on the verge of annexing the six states.]

[In order to save the State of Yan, Prince Dan of Yan decided to send Jing Ke to assassinate King Ying Zheng of Qin.]

[Jing Ke was originally from Wei. He liked reading and fencing, and was a generous and chivalrous person.]

[After he arrived in Yan State, he was treated as a distinguished guest by Prince Dan.]

[Prince Dan made careful preparations for this assassination.]

[He prepared an extremely sharp dagger for Jing Ke, and coated it with deadly poison. If he was scratched by the dagger, he would die immediately.]

[In addition, Prince Dan also found an assistant for Jing Ke, named Qin Wuyang. ]

[Qin Wuyang killed someone in the street when he was only 12 years old, and he was known as a ruthless person in the local area.]

[On the day of departure, Prince Dan and many others, wearing white clothes and white hats, came to the Yishui River to see Jing Ke off.]

[The scene was extremely tragic. Jing Ke sang loudly to the crowd: "The wind is whistling and the Yi River is cold. Once the warrior leaves, he will never return!"]

[Afterwards, Jing Ke took the box containing Fan Yuqi's head and the map of Du Kang in Yan State and set out on the road to Qin State.]

[After arriving in Qin, Jing Ke and Qin Wuyang went to the palace to meet King Ying Zheng of Qin.]

[In the hall, Qin Wuyang saw the majestic look of King Qin Ying Zheng and was frightened to the point of turning pale and trembling all over.]

【Jing Ke remained calm. He presented Fan Yuqi's head to King Ying Zheng of Qin while slowly unfolding the map.】

[When the map was fully unfolded, the dagger hidden inside was revealed.]

[Jing Ke was quick-witted and grabbed the dagger and stabbed Qin King Ying Zheng.]

[King Qin Ying Zheng also reacted quickly. He dodged backwards and avoided the fatal blow.]

[Then, the two of them started a thrilling chase in the hall.]

[King Ying Zheng of Qin ran around the pillar, with Jing Ke chasing him closely behind.]

[Finally, King Qin Ying Zheng drew his sword and slashed Jing Ke. Seeing that the assassination was hopeless, Jing Ke threw the dagger at King Qin Ying Zheng, but also missed.]

[Jing Ke collapsed in the hall, ending his short but legendary life. ]

[The story of Jing Ke's assassination of Qin Shi Huang is particularly moving not only because its target was Qin Shi Huang, who later unified China.]

[Moreover, because the assassin Jing Ke has too many shadows of ordinary people.]

[His swordsmanship is so bad that even Gai Nie doesn't like it]

【He also failed because of his poor swordsmanship.】

[Will hesitate when accepting a task. ]

【But once he reached the main hall, he went forward without hesitation. 】

[He will need the cooperation of his assistant Qin Wuyang. ]

[And Qin Wuyang, a master at killing at the age of 12, was shaking with fear in the hall. ]

[As an assassin, Jing Ke's beliefs and professional abilities were imperfect.]

【But it is precisely this imperfection that makes the tragic scene of "the dagger is revealed" more real. 】

[When Jing Ke's legs were cut off, he still threw the dagger with all his might. ]

[When he knew that it was impossible to do anything, he still leaned against the pillar and laughed and cursed. ]

【What we see is not just the end of an assassin. 】

[It is also the end of the era of pre-Qin knights. ]

[When Jing Ke's legs were cut off, he still threw the dagger. ]

[When he was wounded eight times, he still leaned against the pillar and laughed and cursed. ]

[What we see is not a superhero, but a mortal who swings the sword against fate even though he knows he will die! ]

[No wonder Sima Qian wrote a biography of more than 2,000 words for this "loser"! ]

[These are the assassins of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. ]

[Cao Mo, Zhuan Zhu, Yao Li, Yu Rang, Nie Zheng, Jing Ke...]

[In that era of war between princes and the survival of the fittest, they used the most primitive method - personal violence - to fight against the tide of the entire era.]

[They may not understand the general situation of the world, but they know what it means to keep a promise and what it means to repay a friend with one's own death.]

[As Sima Qian said: "From Cao Mo to Jing Ke, the five people, their ideas may be successful or not, but their intentions are clear and they do not deceive their ambitions."]

[Now, more than two thousand years have passed, and the era of assassins has long ended. 】

[Their behavior does not completely conform to the three views of modern people. ]

【But those stories about loyalty, courage, sacrifice, commitment, and confidant. 】

[Still being sung...]

[This may be the most precious treasure left by the assassins of the pre-Qin era to future generations.]

The sky screen video ends here.

Barrages of comments appeared one after another.

"The Story of Jing Ke's Laughter: The Stab on the Steps."

《The King Carries the Sword! The King Carries the Sword!》

"After Jing Ke was nerfed to A Ke, he is no longer good at playing jungle."

《Qin Wuyang: I killed someone when I was thirteen! King Qin: Very good, what about yesterday?》

"Jing Ke's martial arts skills are not good enough, and his assistant Qin Wuyang is a coward again."

"Jing Ke was originally just a street urchin, not a hero."

"Tao Yuanming commented on Jing Ke: It's a pity that his swordsmanship is not good enough."

"The most important thing for an assassin is mental quality. Jing Ke is considered a top assassin."

"The original plan was for Qin Wuyang to assist in attracting the King of Qin's attention, and Jing Ke would take the opportunity to hold Ying Zheng hostage. However, Qin Wuyang backed off, and Jing Ke's success rate dropped significantly in an instant."

"Perhaps Jing Ke wanted to hold the King of Qin hostage at first, but missed the chance to kill with the first strike."

"Ying Zheng is tall and strong, and he is also a martial artist. Jing Ke can't defeat him in a one-on-one fight."

"It's a bit stupid to want to capture Ying Zheng alive. Qin's international credit is negative. Even if Ying Zheng swore not to invade at that time, he would definitely regret it afterwards."

"There is no hard and fast requirement for an assassin to have strong martial arts skills. It mainly depends on the psychological quality."

"Jing Ke actually didn't want to die, and he made all kinds of requests. Prince Dan used PUA + moral blackmail, and Jing Ke couldn't bring himself to go."

"Fan Yuqi was willing to commit suicide, so why didn't Jing Ke do it voluntarily?"

"But Jing Ke really went there, and really dared to go to the palace to assassinate. "

"After reading the real Jing Ke revealed by you all, I admire Jing Ke even more."

And outside the sky.

Qin Dynasty.

Ying Zheng's right hand unconsciously reached for the sword at his waist, as if he had returned to the thrilling assassination scene.

"Look at Jing Ke."

Ying Zheng's voice was as cold as ice.

"That year, it was in this palace, only seven steps away from me."

"If it weren't for Xia Wuqie's medicine bag, I wouldn't be the one sitting here today."

"These assassins think they can change the situation with just a dagger. It's ridiculous!"

"Take Jing Ke for example. He was bewitched by Prince Dan of Yan and attempted to assassinate me. However, he did not know that the unification of the world was an inevitable trend and that he alone could not stop it."

Li Si stepped forward and said respectfully:
"Your Majesty is wise! These assassins are nothing more than the last ditch efforts of the remaining forces of various countries."

"Their despicable actions have accelerated the demise of the six nations."

Fusu also said sincerely:

"Although the assassin may be brave for a while, he is nothing but a mantis trying to stop a chariot in front of the mighty military force of our Qin Dynasty."

"However, we cannot let our guard down and must step up our precautions to ensure Father's safety."

Ying Zheng stood up, his eyes determined: "The remnants of the six kingdoms are best at using these deadly warriors, I want to cut off their claws and teeth!"

"Pass on my decree. From now on, all counties and prefectures will strictly investigate wandering swordsmen. Anyone who hides a sharp weapon will be imprisoned!"

"Let those who harbor evil intentions no longer dare to think of assassinating me!"

In the hall, Ying Zheng's words echoed, and the ministers knelt down and shouted: "Long live His Majesty! Long, long live His Majesty!" (End of this chapter)
