He had been planning for a long time, but many changes occurred in this plan. The Mohists even broke away from Yan Dan's control. In order to help Yan Dan assassinate Qin and to make Yan a target so that Qin would not have time to pay attention to Chu, he even asked the Farmers to help Yan Dan assassinate Qin.
As a result, things still went wrong.
He underestimated one person.
That's Gai Nie.
He knew a little about Ying Zheng's escape from Xianyang to Xinzheng years ago, and that Ying Zheng seemed to have encountered some trouble in Xinzheng, and that it was Gai Nie who protected Ying Zheng.
In Yongcheng, when Ying Zheng was coming of age, Lao Ai caused a disturbance and once besieged Qinian Palace, nearly killing Ying Zheng. It was Gai Nie who intervened and saved Ying Zheng from danger.
Because of these things, Gai Nie was highly valued by Ying Zheng.
Furthermore, he was allowed to carry a sword into the palace.
Lord Changping knew about these things, but he didn't take Gai Nie seriously. In his opinion, as long as the assassin got within a few steps of Ying Zheng, even if Gai Nie reacted, it would be too late to help.
Unexpectedly, Gai Nie also possessed such a unique skill with flying swords.
As many palace guards rushed toward the assassin, Gai Nie also moved suddenly. He reached out his hand, and the long sword that had been blocked by the assassin flew out and landed in his hand. He then fought with the assassin disguised as an envoy.
This skilled farmer is quite powerful, but Gai Nie is no weakling either.
After exchanging several blows, Gai Nie's sword sliced open his opponent's throat, ending his life.
The assassination attempt on the King of Qin thus came to an end.
Although many unexpected events and variables occurred during this process, the final outcome was no different.
The assassination attempt by the Yan state envoy on Ying Zheng at Xianyang Palace failed.
Gai Nie killed the assassin, which made him famous and earned him a great reward from Ying Zheng.
After the assassination attempt on the King of Qin was over.
Next, it was time for the Qin state to retaliate against the Yan state.
Originally, although the Qin army was stationed on the border of the Yan state, it had no intention of launching a military campaign against Yan for the time being.
The Qin state has not yet decided which country to conquer next.
However, Yan Dan was very clever and sent envoys to Qin to assassinate King Ying Zheng.
Although Ying Zheng ultimately escaped unharmed, he was certainly furious at the assassination attempt.
This was the perfect opportunity to spread the news, igniting the fury of the Qin army and prompting them to seek revenge against the Yan state.
Ying Zheng immediately ordered Wang Jian, who was stationed on the southern border of Yan, to send troops to formally attack the Yan state.
Ji City of the Yan State.
Yan Dan was still waiting for good news to come back.
However, before the news of King Ying Zheng's assassination and death could reach him, another piece of bad news arrived first.
Many of the Mohist leaders have successfully returned to the Mechanical City and made their actions public.
He officially became a traitor to the Mohist school and was hunted down by the entire Mohist community.
In any case, Yan Dan once held a high position in the Mohist school and had some confidants within it.
When Yan Dan heard about this, his expression changed drastically.
Then, he smashed the cup in his hand and angrily cursed Tian Guang, "Useless, you piece of trash!"
He had thought that Tian Guang could help him successfully intercept and kill several leaders of the Mo family. Tian Guang had even confidently told him that he would send two leaders of the Farmer's Clan to do that, but in the end, he failed.
How could Yan Dan not be furious?
Did he really not know what the consequences of assassinating the Qin emperor would be?
He knows it.
But he still chose to do it.
For the sake of the Yan state, he had no other choice.
At the same time, he was not too worried about the failed assassination attempt on the Qin emperor.
As long as the Mohists remain under his control, he will always have a way out.
Unexpectedly, his actions were exposed, and his plan to kill several leaders of the Mohist school failed.
This means that the Mohist school has completely slipped out of his control.
After his anger subsided, Yan Dan could only place his hopes on Tian Guang's men to carry out the assassination plot and successfully kill Ying Zheng.
Yan Dan had little confidence in Tian Guang's people.
After all, I don’t understand.
If it were Jing Ke, based on his understanding of Jing Ke, Yan Dan (Li Li Zhao) firmly believed that Jing Ke could complete the assassination plan against the Qin emperor. After all, the Five-Step Killing Sword was unparalleled in the world and was extremely skilled in assassination.
If the assassination attempt on the King of Qin succeeds, the State of Yan will be saved. Even if the Mohist school is lost, he will still be the Crown Prince of Yan and will still have a way to survive.
Conversely, what if the assassination attempt on Qin also failed?
Yan Dan truly didn't know what to do next.
If I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have tried to kill Six-Fingered Black Knight back then. That way, even if the Yan Kingdom were destroyed, I would still have a chance to survive.
time flies.
Soon, news came from the Qin state.
This is terrible news.
The assassination attempt on the Qin emperor failed.
On this day, Yan Dan cursed Tian Guang countless times in his mansion. He attributed all his failures to Tian Guang. If Tian Guang hadn't instigated him to assassinate Qin, and if Tian Guang's men hadn't been incompetent, he wouldn't have ended up in such a situation.
Unfortunately, all he can do now is curse; he's powerless to change anything.
Chapter 361 No Ifs!
Tian Guang knew about the failed assassination attempt on the King of Qin before Yan Dan did.
After all, Yan Dan had to obtain information about this matter through normal channels, while Tian Guang was directly informed of it by Lord Changping. In fact, he had secretly gone to Xianyang when the assassination attempt on Qin was underway.
After this failed attempt, he received orders from Lord Changping to go to the State of Yan, sever all ties, and completely abandon Yan Dan.
Therefore, it is time to abandon Yan Dan.
Not only did Yan Dan resent Tian Guang, but Tian Guang also deeply hated Yan Dan.
In the past, Yan Dan was sent to the State of Qin as a hostage. Lord Changping observed Yan Dan and determined that he was a talented person. Later, in order to save the State of Chu, he formulated a comprehensive plan, and Yan Dan was the person he valued.
He intended to train Yan Dan into a sharp blade.
Later, when the Yan state was in trouble, Tian Guang presented the choice to Yan Dan.
Yan Dan fell into the trap and willingly became the knife.
To help Yan Dan carry out his assassination plan against Qin Shi Huang, the Mo family contributed a great deal of effort. They not only helped Yan Dan ambush and kill the Six-Fingered Black Knight, but also, after Yan Dan's conspiracy was exposed, sent two hall masters and many disciples to surround and kill the Mo family leader, 557, to help Yan Dan make amends for his earlier mistakes.
The results of it?
All of these things failed.
It would be impossible for Yan Dan not to feel heartbroken upon learning of the deaths of the Tian brothers, Tian Meng and Tian Hu, as well as many other disciples of the Farmer's School.
Among farming families, the Tian clan was an extremely powerful clan.
Tian Hu and Tian Meng are both relatives of Tian Guang. They are the most outstanding members of the Tian clan, and Tian Guang has high hopes for them. Although Tian Guang has gradually made more use of those hall masters from other clans in recent years, his choice of Tian Meng as one of the successors of the Azure Dragon Plan after its formulation shows that he has some selfish motives.
Later, Tian Meng framed Chen Sheng, causing Chen Sheng to be expelled from the peasant family.
Although Tian Guang saw this, he didn't point it out, which was also a way of protecting Tian Meng.
However, now, both of the Tian brothers, known as the Tigers, are dead.
This all stems from Yan Dan's incompetence; it stems from Yan Dan being a useless person.
In the past, Yan Dan killed the Six-Fingered Black Knight and took his place as the leader of the Mohist school. He thought the other party was a powerful and ruthless figure, but as it turned out, he was wrong.
(chaf)
Yan Dan is a piece of trash.
Such important news was leaked and subsequently found out by the Mohists.
It's fine if I know.
Since we've decided to eliminate all traces of the Mohist sect and kill those who know the truth, then we should make thorough preparations.
They actually managed to escape from the Crown Prince's residence.
You must know, that was Yan Dan's own residence.
This shows how useless Yan Dan was, that he was able to escape.
After that, the inheritance should be blocked; if all those people could be kept in Jicheng, that would be fine too.
However, Yan Dan failed once again.
This allowed those people to escape from Jicheng and then return to the Mechanical City.
