Chapter 92 Civil and Military Manchu Dynasty
The envoy from Yan is coming to pay homage!
Zhangtai Palace, the royal palace.
Early in the morning, the originally solemn and dignified palace was decorated with magnificent furnishings, which made it look generous and magnanimous. Although winter had not yet completely passed, it was a rare good day today. The golden sunshine poured down on the palace, illuminating the huge palace.
[Today, the drama of Jing Ke assassinating Qin will unfold before me! ]
Inside the royal palace, all the civil and military officials of Qin, together with envoys from the three kingdoms of Wei, Chu and Qi, gathered together to witness how Jing Ke, the envoy of Yan, on behalf of King Xi of Yan and his son Prince Dan of Yan, ceded Du Kang, which was half of Yan's territory, to King Zheng of Qin, bringing with them a map of Du Kang and the head of Fan Yuqi, a rebel general of Qin.
As a prince of Qin, Fusu would not miss such a major event. As Fusu's man, Tianxuan was wearing a dark cloud-patterned robe today, with an indifferent look, following behind Fusu like a shadow. The pain brought by the death of his adoptive grandfather, Lao Cangtou, was deeply buried by Tianxuan.
Tianxuan, who was already ten years old, seemed to have his head down, but in fact, there was a hint of interest hidden in his pair of bright eyes. Because it was his first time to attend such an important occasion, he was secretly sizing up the important officials in Zhengge's court. Every time he saw someone, the records related to this person emerged in his mind.
After Qin Shihuang unified the world, the left prime minister Wang Wan advocated that Qin Shihuang's sons, clansmen, and meritorious officials be sent to remote areas of Yan, Qi, Chu and other countries to guard the places in order to maintain national stability. However, Qin Shihuang adopted Li Si's opinion and implemented the county system. He and Li Si became sworn enemies that went down in history.
Right Prime Minister Changping Jun Xiong Qi, surnamed Mi, clan Xiong, given name Qi, son of King Kaolie of Chu, Prime Minister of Qin during the late Warring States Period, cousin and brother-in-law of Qin Shihuang, and last King of Chu. He was a prince of Chu, granted the title of Changping Jun, served in Qin, and was a minister of King Zhuangxiang of Qin and King Zheng of Qin. He was ordered to quell the Lao Ai Rebellion with Lü Buwei and Changwen Jun, and served as Prime Minister. Later, he rebelled against Qin in Yingchen, and was supported by the Chu general Xiang Yan as King of Chu. He was eventually defeated and died, and the Chu State was destroyed.
Imperial Censor Feng Quji was from Korea. Feng Quji and Feng Jie were both descendants of Feng Ting and ancestors of Feng Fengshi.
Han Fei, the Chief Censor, was also from the Kingdom of Han. Historically, he was the son of King Li of Han, a student of Xunzi, a classmate of Li Si, and the brother of King An of Han. But in this world, Han Fei became the ninth son of King An of Han. Moreover, for some reason, after entering Qin, he was not killed by Li Si and Yao Jia.
Li Si, also known as Tonggu, was a politician, writer and calligrapher from Shangcai, Chu State. He was a representative of the Legalists. Li Si studied under Xunzi and went to Qin after completing his studies. He assisted King Qin Ying Zheng in unifying the six kingdoms. After Qin unified the world, he formulated the etiquette system for Qin Shihuang and was appointed prime minister. After Qin Shihuang died, he conspired with Zhao Gao to forge a will and made his youngest son Hu Hai the second emperor. Later, Zhao Gao was jealous of him and he was beheaded in Xianyang and his three clans were exterminated.
……
In addition to these civil officials, Wang Jian and Wang Ben, father and son, Meng Ao and Meng Wu, father and son, Yang Duanhe, Mi Gong, Li Xin and other generals who have left their names in history and made great contributions in the process of Qin's unification of the world, all came as long as they were in Xianyang. Tianxuan swept his eyes over them. Although these civil and military officials who assisted Zheng Ge in achieving the eternal empire had different looks and temperaments, each of them had his own unique aura, and people would not confuse them at all.
For example, Li Si is as unfathomable as a deep pool; Han Fei always has a smile on his face, and gives people a feeling of being bathed in spring breeze; Changping Jun Xiong Qi is mature and steady, and looks loyal;...; Feng Quji has a cold expression and exudes a cold aura that makes people dare not approach him.
【Tiger, leopard, lion, bear! 】
Although Tianxuan had never really met most of the civil and military officials of the Qin Dynasty, a quick glance at them and the outstanding vision he had gained from his two lives as a human allowed Tianxuan to come to such an evaluation.
Wang Wan, Li Si, Han Fei, Wang Jian and others are all outstanding people in troubled times. Zheng Ge, who can control them, sweep away the heroes of the six eastern countries, and establish the first unified dynasty, is undoubtedly more terrifying than these people. The moment Tian Xuan withdrew his sight from these people, he did not take them into his eyes, but cast a deep gaze on the corner of the black-clothed emperor on the throne. [If these people are tigers, leopards, lions and bears in troubled times, then Zheng Ge is the Gu King who was born from the five hundred years of fighting in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the real dragon in troubled times! ]
"Send the Yan envoys Jing Ke and Qin Wuyang to the palace!"
Zheng Ge, who was sitting on the throne, didn't notice Tian Xuan's little action at all, or more accurately, he noticed it but didn't care. Suddenly, his thin lips curled up slightly, and he gave an order to Zhao Gao, the Minister of the Imperial Chariots, who was standing on the steps in front of him.
"Send the Yan envoys Jing Ke and Qin Wuyang to the palace!"
After receiving the order from Zheng Ge, Zhao Gao shouted loudly in his hoarse voice.
"Send the Yan envoys Jing Ke and Qin Wuyang to the palace!"
"Send the Yan envoys Jing Ke and Qin Wuyang to the palace!"
"Send the Yan envoys Jing Ke and Qin Wuyang to the palace!"
……
In the magnificent and majestic palace, rows of eunuchs stood by, passing down Zheng Ge's royal orders one by one. The sound waves that rose and fell, like the surging waves, carried an unparalleled momentum, and crushed Jing Ke and Qin Wuyang who were waiting outside the palace.
Bang!
Qin Wuyang is the grandson of Qin Kai, a wise general of the State of Yan. When he was young, he killed people on the street. No one dared to look him in the eye. He was a famous warrior of the State of Yan. He followed Yan Dan to join the Mohist School and was Yan Dan's absolute confidant. However, facing the sound waves coming from the hall, Qin Wuyang was like a pig and dog encountering a jackal. The firmness on his face quickly disappeared, he staggered, and his face turned pale as paper.
"Brother Wuyang," Jing Ke, who was standing in front of Qin Wuyang, turned around and glanced at him calmly, "Let's go, it's time for us to go and pay our respects to the King of Qin."
Snapped!
At the end of his speech, Jing Ke slapped Qin Wuyang on the shoulder and looked at Qin Wuyang with an extremely serious gaze.
tread!tread!tread!
Since Jing Ke and Qin Wuyang were going to emulate Nie Zheng, Yao Li and other assassins who left their names in history, they naturally knew that no matter success or failure, they would not be able to leave the solemn, majestic and domineering Zhangtai Palace alive. Receiving Jing Ke's gaze, Qin Wuyang took a deep breath secretly, holding the box containing Fan Yuqi's head, and walked towards the palace step by step.
The footsteps of Jing Ke and Qin Wuyang echoed in the slightly empty hall, attracting the attention of the people in the hall, and countless eyes looked at them. The mixed eyes, like ruthless arrows, struck the defenses of Jing Ke and Qin Wuyang, causing Qin Wuyang, who had never seen such a scene, to have a horrified look on his face and fear in his eyes.
