The Moon in the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 555 You Can't Take the Blame for This

Here comes the chance to surpass my husband.

The Yuchang Sword is indeed a peerless famous sword. This sword would rather break than bend. It is stubborn and hard, and contains a sharp spirit. Once the sword is out, it is unstoppable.

The remnant rainbow that he had created was also naturally violent and ferocious, and it was made of meteorite from outer space, so it would not be attracted by magnets. It was just right to wrap the fish intestines with the remnant rainbow!

The two swords merged into one, and my husband's shark teeth could only sigh in vain.

Although I didn't win against my husband, I didn't lose either, it was a draw. This was good, both of them could save face.

When Ren Jing and Madam Xu were discussing this, Madam Xu firmly stopped them, saying that they must not get involved in this matter. The victory or loss between the two was just a fight of pride, and the lives of the entire family could not be gambled.

Ren Jing was aware of Mrs. Xu's concerns, but she still persuaded Mrs. Xu.

Firstly, Yan Dan came in person with generous gifts to make the request, which was difficult to refuse.

Secondly, as a sword-making master, seeing the Yuchang Sword in front of him, and now having the opportunity to transform the Yuchang Sword, he couldn't help but feel itchy.

Third, and most importantly, Ren Jing came up with a brilliant idea to pass the buck.

It was this idea of ​​shirking responsibility that convinced Mrs. Xu.

Mrs. Xu estimated that the problem was indeed not serious, and for the sake of her wife's face, she agreed.

Yan Dan was overjoyed when Ren Jing agreed to help. He had been prepared to come to her and beg for help many times, but he never expected that she would agree so easily. Although it was a pity that only Ren Jing took action, it was enough.

Yan Dan hurriedly presented a gift worth thousands of gold, fearing that Ren Jing would go back on his word.

Unexpectedly, Ren Jing refused to accept the gold and just said that she was doing him a favor and would not accept any money.

Yan Dan insisted on giving it to Ren Jing again and again, but Ren Jing refused to accept it.

Yan Dan thought a lot but still couldn't figure it out. In the end, he thought that it must be the Yuchang Sword that attracted the master to take action, and coupled with his relationship with the Mohist school, he was willing to help for free.

But this is also a good thing.

The State of Yan is poor, and the prince is even poorer. He has spent too much money recently and is now very short of money.

But the strange thing is that when I was short of money recently and asked my father for it, he gave it to me very readily. This is very strange, because my father shouldn't be such a generous person.

While Ren Jing was making the Yuchang Sword, Yan Dan did not wait and went to find his teacher at the farm and asked him to help find a unique poison at the farm.

His teacher had watched him grow up since he was young. Others did not understand Yan Dan, but he definitely knew him. Although he did not know the inside story, he knew that Yan Dan was definitely going to do something extremely dangerous, and it was likely that he would use unspeakable means.

Although he was a farmer who ambushed Yan Dan, the two had been together for so many years and still had a master-disciple relationship, although they had gradually become estranged over the years.

But in the end, he couldn't help but give a piece of advice: As a royal noble, you should take the broad and right path, be cautious and careful, and shouldn't use ghostly tricks to deal with major events.

But things have come to this point, there is no way to retreat. Yan Dan does not even consider retreating, and it is impossible for him to retreat.

He insisted on asking the farmer's teacher to find poison for him.

His teacher could only sigh and agree.

Then report the news immediately.

He was not told what to do, but was given a poison carefully prepared by a farmer.

This poison is called Heartbroken.

The blood seals the throat.

It is made from specially cultivated Sui Xin flowers and Gelsemium elegans, which have been tempered countless times. It takes five years to get just a few drops.

If a drop enters the mouth, the person will die instantly. Even if there are gods guarding by the side, it will be too late to save the person, and it will be too late to revive the person, because the poison will quickly corrode the entire person into a pool of pus.

If it is applied on a sword, if it touches any part of the body, the person will die instantly.

People with low cultivation will die even if they get close and smell it.

After Yan Dan got the poison, he smeared it on an ordinary dagger and asked several experts to try it out.

If blood is seen, everyone will die instantly.

Yan Dan was overjoyed and extremely confident.

Now it’s really stable!

No matter how powerful the King of Qin is, with Jing Ke's ability and the power of his sword, there is no way he can't be hurt!

As long as there is a little injury, the outcome will be decided!

Yan Dan excitedly told Jing Ke all of this, and Jing Ke was also confident about it. Everything was done so comprehensively that it was impossible for it to fail!

Then a problem arose before them.

How can I successfully get before the King of Qin?
Yan Dan had been to the Zhangtai Palace in the Xianyang Palace many times and knew very well how majestic the Zhangtai Palace was and how spacious the main hall was.

Normally, when an envoy came to meet the emperor in the palace, he was nearly thirty steps away from Ying Zheng who was sitting on a high seat (one step in the Qin Dynasty was about six feet, which meant a big step, that is, one step forward with each foot, which was about 140cm).

The distance was too far. There were countless masters in the palace, and the King of Qin's guards were even more masters. It was impossible for Jing Ke to successfully assassinate Ying Zheng over a distance of thirty steps. Jing Ke's move was powerful, but first, it required accumulation of power, and second, after exerting full power, he had no power left to control it, so he had to be close enough to do it.

This sword is called Seven Steps to Kill, but its power is within ten steps. Beyond ten steps, it can be used against ordinary people, but it is not reliable enough to deal with masters.

This is a sword move that combines all his strengths. In Zhangtai Palace, he only has one chance, so he must go all out, and then he will be exhausted.

Besides, the poison on the sword has to come into contact with it, and the sword energy cannot be contaminated by the poison.

As for the fact that the King of Qin had issued an order prohibiting Jing Ke from entering the territory of the Qin Dynasty, this was easy to solve. He could change his name and disguise himself. Jing Ke had been devoted to cultivation and was not well-known. Few people had seen him. In addition, more than ten years had passed, and his appearance and temperament had changed greatly. It was not difficult to hide it.

Anyway, there is no need to hide it for a long time, just stepping into the hall is enough.

The question is how to get closer to the King of Qin?

At this time, Jing Ke smiled slightly and said, "Your Highness, the King of Qin's intention to annex the world is obvious, but few people know that the King of Qin is hypocritical and cunning."

"The King of Qin has always boasted of his wisdom and benevolence, and never easily starts a war. If that is the case, we can tempt him with benefits."

"I request an audience with the King of Qin on the pretext of offering land from Dayan. Of course, in order to attract the attention of the King of Qin, the gift must be generous enough to arouse the King of Qin's greed. It would be best if it is in the name of offering land. The King of Qin will certainly meet with me in person to show his generosity."

"Qin and Yan have always been on good terms, and there has been no war or conflict so far. With the example of Han and Zhao, the King of Qin will not disbelieve me when I, Great Yan, bring up this matter."

"You can hide the sword in the map. When the time comes, I will be able to get close to him on the pretext of introducing the territory of Great Yan."

As Yan Dan listened to Jing Ke's plan, his eyes became brighter and brighter, and he shouted loudly, "Great!"

"This is a brilliant plan! The King of Qin has always been hypocritical and conceited. He never thought that someone would dare to attack him."

Yan Dan's face was full of excitement. "Moreover, after learning from the previous experience of Han and Zhao, it is reasonable for Yan to take the initiative to propose submission. He has already annexed the two countries easily and smoothly, so he must be spoiled and careless, and he must not have too many doubts."

"This is a very clever plan."

But soon, the joy on Yan Dan's face disappeared and his brows were furrowed.

"But there is a question, will father agree to this plan?"

The two looked at each other again.

A diplomatic mission to a country, especially one that wants to attract the attention of other countries, must be grand and solemn.

This is not something that just a few people can do. There are etiquettes for diplomatic missions, and the entire delegation involves a large number of people.

This kind of thing cannot be faked.

If King Xi of Yan disagrees, then it will definitely not work.

Yan Dan's expression changed for a while, and he finally gritted his teeth and said, "Don't worry, Cifei, I will go and discuss this matter, and I will make sure that my father agrees."

Jing Ke nodded and said, "Your Majesty understands the truth. Your Highness, please discuss it in a good way and the King will certainly agree. However, Your Highness, it is best not to make suggestions directly. It would be best to ask the important officials of Dayan to make suggestions."

Although Jing Ke did not say it explicitly, Yan Dan understood what Jing Ke meant.

Although his father has always valued profit over morality, he is definitely not stupid. On the contrary, he is extremely shrewd. He has always seen through the major events in the world and has the courage to take risks. The plan has been carried out to this point, and the success rate is so high, his father must be tempted.

However, it was absolutely impossible to get him to agree to take this risk. The Qin State was too strong, and his father would never let him take the risk himself, so someone needed to take the blame.

Of course, as the planner, I am the most suitable person to take the blame.

Coincidentally, Yan Dan thought so too.

If things turn out well, I will naturally be the biggest contributor, and I will be the biggest contributor to the whole world.

Although this is a very disgraceful thing to do, extraordinary circumstances call for extraordinary measures. As long as it succeeds, a few minor comments are not worth mentioning.

But what if things don’t work out?
If the plan fails, the King of Qin will certainly take revenge, but revenge does not mean total defeat and certain death.

The people of Zhao have already been dragged into the water, and the King of Qin’s revenge will not be directed only at the State of Yan.

The princess of Zhao had just become the queen of the King of Qin. If she got involved and caused unrest in the Qin court, Yan would instigate it. There was no doubt that Zhao would be in turmoil. At that time, Yan and Zhao would join forces and they would be able to fight. After all, Qin had taken advantage of the situation to swallow up Zhao so easily.

Although we must be prepared to die if we fail, we must also be prepared for the worst.

Even if the plan fails, you can't just wait to die in vain. You still have to resist. After all, after doing this, there will be no chance of surrender.

Besides, what if?
What if there is some other turn of events?

Never give up until the last moment, and fight to the death even at the last moment. Who knows what will happen in the last second?

In this case, I cannot allow myself to bear this final charge.

After the truth is revealed, the entire Yan State will no longer think of compromising, but will resist with all its might in the face of danger!
Then, my father will have to take the blame.

Only when my father is speechless and is completely forced into a desperate situation, will he lead the entire State of Yan to fight to the death.

Only in this way can we achieve the best result for both ourselves and Dayan.
