The Moon in the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 212: Xinling Jun, Death

A month later, the time finally came to the fourth year of King Zheng of Qin.

During this period, Ying Zheng did not see Gongsun Li. He was not interested in seeing such an ugly woman now. He should wait for her for a while until her mental state recovered. That would be the time to possess her. Ying Zheng did not mind waiting for a while. It could be regarded as a change of pace in his daily life and an interesting little game.

And Qing Ke did not do anything stupid, this was due to his good luck. If he had not learned the sword moves and been seriously injured, and had not calmed down and become rational during this period of time, it would have been possible for him to do something stupid.

Qing Ke is not that stupid, at least not at the moment.

Ying Zheng is not interested in paying attention to such a small person like Qing Ke now. The reason why he can go down in history is because of me.

Ying Zheng had been waiting for a piece of news, a sign that he could take action.

This is the news I have been waiting for since last year.

Finally, the wait has come.

King Anxi of Wei, who had been bedridden after last year's battle, was on his deathbed, and at this moment, the tacit understanding he had been waiting for appeared.

Lord Xinling also suddenly fell ill and was bedridden, reportedly due to excessive drinking and sex.

Despite the advice from his retainers, Xinling Jun refused to listen and even moved to a villa on the outskirts of the city. He had fewer retainers and guards around him.

Yanri, who had been waiting for an opportunity for half a year, noticed the problem at the first moment.

The message came back quickly.

When Ying Zheng saw the news, he sighed.

"Wei Wuji, what a pity."

Ying Zheng looked at Li Wu's curious eyes. Li Wu naturally didn't dare to say anything more, but Ying Zheng also wanted to find someone to talk to.

With both hands stretched out, Li Wu immediately threw herself into Ying Zheng's arms, pressed against his chest and took a deep breath, "Ah~ the smell of the king."

Ying Zheng felt the warmth and warmth in his arms and explained, "This is the tacit understanding between me and the King of Wei, and also the tacit understanding between the King of Wei and Lord Xinling."

"This is a trap, but they are sure I will fall into it, and they also make sure I can get what I want."

"I want them to die, and they want to take some scapegoats with them to weaken the enemy."

Li Wu was a little confused: "Your Majesty, since the King of Wei and the Crown Prince of Wei are afraid of Wei Wuji, and Wei Wuji is going to die anyway, why do we still want to kill Wei Wuji? And it's such a trap, why don't we just not go in?"

Ying Zheng laughed loudly, and the laughter echoed in the hall. He suddenly stopped and said with a cold face: "Wei Wuji must die at the hands of the Qin Dynasty. I will not allow him to die at the hands of Wei Zeng."

"Wei Wuji united the five kingdoms to attack Qin, which was the reason for my father's death. How can I let Wei Wuji die at the hands of others?"

"Send out all your forces."

"Send the order to cover the sun, at any cost."

"Act immediately and kill Wei Wuji!"

"Tell Yanri that no matter whether Wei Wuji really died of illness or died at the hands of King Wei, he doesn't need to come back."

"Wei Wuji must die at the hands of the Qin!"

Li Wu hurriedly stood up to draft the edict, and the eunuch hurried to read the royal order.

A large number of Luowang reinforcements brought Wang Ling to Daliang City. Yanri was both happy and worried to see so many reinforcements and receive such harsh words from Wang Ling.

Now, it can be said that all of Luowang’s elite combat forces, except for the intelligence personnel, have arrived in Daliang City.

Except for Xuan Jian who was seconded by Xuan Yuwei to carry out a top-secret mission, now including Yanri, the remaining three first-class Tianzi of Luowang are all present.

The two new first-class Tianzi masters were experts who had just been promoted to the first-class Tianzi in the past two years, and they were recruited with great difficulty.

With Yanri's many years of experience, he knew very well that this assassination was not easy, and the matter was strange. It was most likely a trap. That was the world-famous Xinling Jun. He was not an incompetent fool. He had countless talented people and masters under him, and there were countless people who were willing to die for him. Moreover, he was assassinated in Daliang, the capital of Wei State.

It is not a wise move to take action when you know that this is a trap.

But the king has already said this, what else can we do?
Fight!

He confirmed again and again that Xinling Jun was indeed in the other courtyard.

In a pitch-dark night, hundreds of Luowang's elite core killers all rushed in with a life-threatening attitude.

This is no longer an assassination, it is an assault.

Sure enough, after rushing into the villa, which seemed to be lax and not guarded by many people, it was discovered that it was loose on the outside but tight on the inside and there had been an ambush.

The two sides engaged in a battle of hard power, leaving no room for tricks.

With such a big commotion, it was strange that a large number of royal masters, the Royal Guards, and the City Defense Forces sent all their forces to guard the palace.

And there was clearly not a single assassin in the palace.

The city of Daliang seemed to be bustling with activity, but not a single soldier went to reinforce Xinling Jun's villa.

Meanwhile, at Xinling Jun's side, the fighting had reached a fever pitch. In just a quarter of an hour, only about thirty of the more than a hundred elite assassins of Luowang were left, and all of them were injured.

The fighting that lasted just a quarter of an hour was even more brutal than that on an ordinary battlefield.

The battle line had already advanced to a distance of only twenty steps from Xinling Jun. Xinling Jun seemed to be really ill. His face was pale and haggard. He stood straight and watched the people fighting in the field.

Those who are guarding Lord Xinling today are all his retainers whom he has kept for many years, and only his retainers.

After leading the war of five kingdoms against Qin, Xinling Jun returned to Daliang and dismissed many of his retainers. During the few years when he was forced to indulge in wine and sex, many people became disappointed in him and left one after another.

Now, those who are left are those who are loyal to him and willing to die for him. This is especially true in the courtyard today. Basically, all those who are good at martial arts are here.

But now, only one in ten of these two hundred people are alive. Xinling Jun's eyes were filled with grief, and he was heartbroken.

The loyal retainers beside him kept persuading him: "Sir, please leave quickly. With us stopping the assassin, you will be safe."

But Xinling Jun turned a deaf ear to him, just shook his head and said again what he had said countless times today: "Today, I will only die."

Lord Xinling refused to retreat, and none of his followers retreated either.

How can I retreat if my lord does not?

Only death!

It is said that there are many generous and tragic people in Yan and Zhao, but is there a lack of loyal and righteous people in the Central Plains?

When guarding Xinling Jun, the last retainer had a determined look in his eyes and was ready to risk his life.

Apart from more than twenty people from Luowang, only Xinling Jun was left in the courtyard.

Of the two hundred and eleven retainers, not one fled, not one retreated, all were killed in battle.

They were extremely powerful. So many Luowang elites were killed in the battle, even one of the first-class soldiers was killed.

At this time, Xinling Jun could no longer bear the grief and guilt, and tears flowed down his thin cheeks.

Xinling Jun raised the Seven-Star Dragon Abyss Sword, and everyone in Luowang immediately stepped back and became extremely alert.

Yanri said sternly: "Wei Wuji, now that things have come to this, you will definitely die. If you surrender, I promise to give you a quick death. If you resist stubbornly, humph, you will not die so easily."

Xinling Jun ignored him and looked at the Seven-Star Dragon Abyss in his hand, crying bitterly: "Dragon Abyss, Dragon Abyss, you are the sword of integrity and nobility. How can I be worthy of holding you now? How can I still live in this world with dignity?"

In this trap set for Luowang, with the tacit understanding of those bigwigs, these retainers became the destined victims.

His followers were all loyal to him, but he did not fulfill his duty to them.

Xinling Jun could have explained this matter in advance, and perhaps everyone would still be willing to die with Xinling Jun generously, but in order to maximize the elimination of the enemy, he concealed the matter.

Decisions and emotions may always be in conflict for a political creature.

Luo Wang and his party were puzzled by Lord Xinling, and they laughed at him, "Who would have thought that Lord Xinling, who is famous all over the world, would be nothing but a coward pretending to be a woman when he is about to die."

Everyone laughed. It would be great if they could provoke Xinling Jun to surrender or commit suicide. No one knew whether the world-famous Xinling Jun was also a top master.

Now everyone in Luowang is injured, and no one wants to give it a try.

Now even if Xinling Jun committed suicide, it could be considered that he was forced by Luowang and died at Luowang's hands.

Xinling Jun calmed himself down, wiped away his tears, and looked fierce.

He gently placed the Seven Star Dragon Abyss on the steps, picked up a long sword on the ground, and let out a sound of sword sound. Today, there is only death.

Xinling Jun was indeed a top master when he was in his prime.

But he now had the determination to die, which was totally incompatible with his positive attitude towards martial arts.

In recent years, I have become discouraged and addicted to alcohol and sex. If I act for a long time, it will become real and my body has been drained.

Last year, he was so angry that he was bedridden. This is true, not a rumor.

However, after what happened today, his spirit was completely lost, and out of guilt, he even gave up the Seven Star Dragon Abyss and only used an ordinary sword.

Under the siege of the remaining two first-class killers and more than twenty elite Luowang soldiers, he soon fell to the ground and could not get up again.

Yanri gave him the last bit of dignity by only cutting half of his throat but not chopping off his head, leaving his body intact.

After confirming again and again that Xinling Jun was dead, he immediately retreated with the Seven-Star Dragon Abyss.

A huge fire engulfed it all.

The life is full of ups and downs and hardships, it is hard to find a mentor and my tears are shed in vain.

I am grateful to you for your understanding of my intentions. Today I have the opportunity to display my great plans.

I will do my best and never give up any hardship just to repay you for your kindness.

Since ancient times, heroes have disregarded life and death, and their loyalty and righteousness will be passed down forever.

At this time, after seeing the fire, the royal masters who had gathered their strength immediately set out, vowing to annihilate all the Luowang people.

At the same time, the Xuanyuwei masters who were lying in ambush to take precautions also retreated and hid secretly.

At the same time, when all the attention of the people in Wei State was drawn to the palace and Xinling Jun, General Gongsun Xiu, who was still recuperating in bed, was also assassinated by another wave of Luowang killers.

Gongsun Xiu's protection is far inferior to that of Xinling Jun. His strongest disciple Dian Qing is also recuperating in bed at home. The rest of the disciples are either dead or injured. The few who are not seriously injured are also serving in the army. Now only a few young disciples are guarding the house.

Even the personal guards, there are not many now. The personal guards suffered heavy casualties in last year's battle, and there is no replacement now.

His injuries were so severe that he could only barely get out of bed and take care of himself. When he was assassinated, he had no power to resist and died on the spot.

The people who assassinated him were just a dozen elite members of Luowang, not even a top-notch killer. If Gongsun Xiu was unharmed, these guys would not have been able to take his life even if there were ten times more of them.

But now he can only die in humiliation in his hospital bed.

Last year, his army charged into thousands of troops and was unstoppable. Wuxiang Jun Le Cheng used all kinds of tricks and suffered heavy losses, but he still managed to save his life. But now he died as a result of despicable and dirty tricks.

For a general, this is truly the greatest sorrow and humiliation.
