Chapter Thirteen: The Death of King Jian of Qi
"Chen Ping is just a kid, why do some people want to kill him? Ovary, what do you think?"
Yan Lu's casual look when he said this sentence made Zhang Liang helpless. In the past few years, the second senior brother has become more and more fond of "Junior, what do you think"?
Zhang Liang's two thin eyebrows drooped flat, giving Yan Lu a speechless look, and casually said: "There are many possible reasons. For example, the envoy knew Chen Ping's excellence and did not want this person to give advice to the eldest son."
"It is indeed not a bad thing for the eldest son to marry Li Si's daughter, but it is too reckless. Just judging from this point of view, such assassination is too reckless. You didn't think seriously about it."
"Senior brother, every time you encounter something, you ask what you think of the ovary, and then reject the possibility of the ovary analysis one by one to get the closest answer. Senior brother, you are using the ovary to make yourself lazy."
"How could this be lazy?"
Yan Lu turned his head and squinted his eyes and smiled slightly, "In terms of wisdom, I am not as good as you. You listed a variety of possibilities. I analyze it from the perspective of a third party. You and I only perform their own duties."
"The third party's impression..."
Zhang Liang looked upright and said seriously: "This time, my senior brother may not be able to maintain the third party's impression."
"you mean……"
"That's right, it's the senior brother."
Speaking of senior brother Fu Nian, Zhang Liang and Yan Lu's eyes became very complicated.
There is no doubt that as the head of the sect, Fu Nian brought the little sage village to a new level.
However, this height is not recognized by Zhang Liang at all, and the price paid makes Zhang Liang even more disgusted.
Even Yan Lu, who has always been quiet and peaceful and not keen on fighting, is now on Zhang Liang's side.
Both of them have a great relationship with the anti-Qin forces. Zhang Liang and Wei Zhuang, Yan Lu and Nong Yu...
...
Xianyang City, Tingwei Mansion.
The bodies of the six assassins have been completely hollowed out. Yes, even dead people will not be spared in the Tingwei Mansion.
The two assassins who were killed by Ying Bu were also sent here, and no news was found, and perhaps the corpse also represents some kind of information.
The corpse will be completely analyzed, and it is impossible for those clothes and props to be spared. After this investigation, the Tingwei Mansion really found some information from it.
"Sir Tingwei, the poison on the dagger has been found."
The subordinate's report made the dark eyes shine in an instant. He immediately waved his hand to let the person who copied the file take his seat, "Tell me, what are the poisons on the dagger?"
"The subordinates ordered people to search through the classics that were transported back after the empire's destruction of peasants, and found records of such a drug-making technique.
In Linhai area, some down-and-out rangers who wander around the world will mix some plants that were not poisonous and apply them to weapons, making them extremely lethal.
It is not a fatal poison in itself, but for cracked wounds, the medicine will enter the blood and flow throughout the body in a very short time, causing temporary loss of combat effectiveness.
The human body's own immune ability can ultimately eliminate the influence of this drug. Because of this, this poison can only work if it is applied to weapons."
“It’s formula.”
"They are all plants unique to Linhai, tassels, edibles, Qizihua, and hibiscus..."
The subordinates finished dictating the formula of the poison, and the person who copied the file was still writing quickly. The small movement of the brush dragging on the paper fluttered gently in this dark room.
The Tingwei was thinking.
After a while, he slapped the table and said, "Click all the people and follow me to catch people."
"Yes, sir."
...
Within the Xianyang area, there is a special manor that covers a large area and the view inside is incompatible with Xianyang City.
Outside the manor, there were all imperial black armored soldiers stationed, each whistle every five steps, and were airtight.
The owner of this manor is an octogenarian, now with gray hair.
The old man was sitting in the pavilion, staring blankly at the fish swimming in the pond. The wind made his beard fly in a mess, and he didn't move at all, as if he had entered a state of meditation, and his turbid eyes did not blink, like woodcuts.
King Tian Jian of Qi, this is his former identity.
Historically, after the demise of Qi, Tian Jian was ordered to be thrown into a remote place by Ying Zheng and starved to death.
In this world, Fu Nian planned the demise of Qi, but he tried his best to save Tian Jian's life and kept him in this manor, and he would not go out for the rest of his life.
Is this kind of life good enough to eat and drink?
The fish in the pond floated to the water surface, smashing their sharp mouths, stirring countless ripples on the water surface.
Tian Jian's eyes suddenly moved.
Thumb ~
A series of heavy steps, from far to near, alarmed the manor full of dusk air. The fish swimming in the pond disappeared, leaving only the water in the pond swaying.
The Tingwei led a group of people to break in without any scruples. With a wave of his hand, he let someone rush into various places in the manor to search, and he didn't even look at the old man in the pavilion.
Tassels, Du Ai, Qi Zi Flower, Hibiscus... all the plants on the poison formula were found in the manor.
"Sir, the plants in the manor must have been pruned recently, and no abnormalities were found."
Tingwei tsk and glanced at the pavilion, "All the people in this village will be brought back to Tingwei's mansion for trial."
"yes."
When Tian Jian heard their words, he slowly stood up and walked out of the pavilion, saying nothing, probably because he wanted to go with these people on his own initiative.
The Tingwei Mansion was doing business but disliked the old guy moving too slowly, so he rushed over and grabbed his shoulder and pushed hard, "Old man, don't waste time! Let's go!"
Tian Jian staggered and rushed to the ground. The human body's self-defense reaction made his hands support the ground, but his weak body could not prevent him from being injured during this fall.
He lay down on the ground, his body arched like a shrimp, his skin hit the ground, and he was breathing violently. The fall hurt enough, but it also made his eyes seem a little more active.
Decades ago, the Battle of Changping occurred between Qin and Zhao just a few years ago, just after King Tian Jian of Qi ascended the throne.
Zhao once borrowed grain from Qi, and someone persuaded Tian Jian with the reason that his lips and teeth were cold. Those countries of Zhao bordered Qin, and they blocked the barriers from Qin from the east, and Qi could not lose these barriers.
Tian Jian did not listen and refused Zhao's request for help.
Decades later, under Lu Yan's plan, Qin annexed the Three Jins in one fell swoop. Tian Jian finally felt fear and asked Prince Tian Sheng to contact Yan Chu and establish a three-nation alliance to resist Qin.
However, he felt that Qin was too strong and the possibility of victory in resistance was very low. Prince Tian Sheng had a great increase in power and reputation because of the anti-Qin incident, and he no longer took this father seriously.
Fu Nian saw through Tian Jian's weakness and cooperated with the lobbyist sent by Ying Zheng to deceive Tian Jian and said that as long as he surrendered, Qin would never hurt him, and would give him a fief of hundreds of miles to enjoy his life.
In addition, the Prime Minister Housheng of Qi State was always instigating him. Under the psychological offensives of many parties, Tian Jian finally made a big mistake and killed the prince Tian Sheng.
"It was the idea of the prince Tian Sheng to resist Qin. He was already killed, and I never thought of becoming an enemy with Daqin~"
"Ali, Guili! That's my little sister, the king, I want to call you brother-in-law~"
Under the city gate that day, the sunset was broken. The knees that were kneeling in pain, their torn throats, and their disheveled wailing, were only given a disdainful glance from the man opposite...
"Haha~Hahaha~"
Tian Jian laughed out loud on the ground, his saliva dripped uncontrollably, and his gray and messy beard was stained with saliva.
“Hahaha~”
He turned around, looked up at the sky, his limbs trembled like dogs, and raised countless dust.
The Tingwei frowned and looked at him, then spat: "Old man, do you think it is useful to pretend to be crazy and stupid? Come on, drag it away."
"Haha~haha~"
Tian Jian smiled strangely, his limbs were dragged by someone, his butt was taken off the ground, and his clothes were dragged onto the ground, making them dirty and messy.
"Ho yell~"
Suddenly, a long laugh came out of half from his throat, but it broke as if it was pulled from the gate.
Tingwei felt something was wrong, and when he looked again, Tian Jian was exhausted.
