The Yongping Chapter was played, and the women began to dance. Their gorgeous skirts swayed, and in the snow, they looked like beautiful phoenix-perched flowers.
At the climax of the worship, Qin Feng took the wine cup and placed it in front of the god seats. He then took the blessing meat and placed it in front of the blessing seat. The chapter of Eternal Peace was played to the most majestic place. Everyone held their breaths as Qin Feng kowtowed. The final gift segment was completed.
After that, the women left after the dance and removed the food. The chapter of Xi Ping sounded.
The ceremony entered the final segment. After the Xi Ping Chapter, the food was removed. With the Qing Ping Chapter, Qin Feng moved to the stage and the offerings were sent to the furnace to be burned. This meant that the gods had left with the offerings and received the emperor's order.
The furnace was lit, and many offerings were thrown in. The fire lit up the sky, and the last chapter of the chapter of peace and peace was played together. The king of Qin was watching the burning of the offerings with the officials and the people.
The offerings were rich and the burning process took a long time. Qin Feng and the officials who were watching silently all paid attention to the last part of the sacrifice and looked at the rising smoke.
A murderous intent suddenly rose from the snow.
From the cluster of sky lanterns hanging in the southwest corner, countless black shadows flashed out and flew quietly, like the core shadows under the palace veil of the sky lanterns.
When everyone was at their most relaxed and devout, watching the smoke in the furnace fly into the sky as if the Emperor God had left, they were filled with reverence and longing. Their killing intent was as fast as lightning, and the black shadow was as fast as the wind. Just as the Chapter of Peace and Chapter of Peace were played, the sword was pulled out and pointed at Qin Feng!
Gasps sounded at the same time." There's an assassin! Protector!"
The Minister of Taichang beside Qin Feng saw the assassins charging over and screamed.
However, the guards were too far away from the altar. According to the ancestral teachings, sharp weapons such as iron daggers and swords were not allowed to be brought near the altar during the sacrificial ceremony to prevent them from colliding with the auspicious clouds and blessings brought by the arrival of the Emperor God.
In an instant, lightning flashed and thunder rumbled. The officials below the stage panicked, the commoners crowded, the guards rushed forward to protect the emperor, the Zhu girls panicked, and Si Zhu was terrified. All of their expressions were reflected on the sword and reflected in Qin Feng's eyes.
Qin Feng's solemn expression instantly disappeared. He frowned and his eyes became cold. When the first sword came, he moved aside.
That was close! The Minister of Taichang exclaimed in his heart. However, the second and third sword attacks had already arrived after the first one.
Qin Feng flipped backwards and bent his waist. The second sword passed by his nose and missed. He quickly turned his body back and nimbly dodged the third sword.
Qin Feng easily dodged the pincer attack. However, the people below the stage were shocked. Some timid people had even fainted from fear. The sudden assassination was under the eyes of tens of thousands of people, and the target was the most eye-catching Qin Wang at the ceremony. How could it not be breathtaking!
After dodging the swords of the three assassins, the fourth and fifth assassins had already made their move. The guards had also arrived.
The scene was extremely chaotic. Qin Feng, who was protected by the Minister of Taichang, was surrounded by the assassins and a large number of guards.
Below the stage, Qin Qi gently turned his palm back to the side of his clothes. His fingers moved secretly, and a black talisman was already hidden in his sleeve.
Just before the seven assassins flew out, he took out a black talisman from his sleeve and turned it over to Qin Feng.
It was a secret code, a secret code for action. He exchanged glances with the Prime Minister to say that everything was normal and that they could take action as planned.
And these eight assassins in black were his first batch of secret weapons, the killing swords of the black shadow team.
A smile appeared on Qin Qi's face. When he met Bai Ling back then, he had used his unique keen senses and observation skills to discover that he could make use of Bai Ling. Therefore, he had only used a small trick to make Bai Ling the most important member under his command.
He had made an agreement with Bai Ling on three things. Before the agreement was completed, Bai Ling could not appear in the world and could not interact with any forces other than Qin Qi. He had become the best helper to protect him in the dark. The first of these three things was to train a group of assassins, a group of fearless, battle-hardened assassins who could fight against ten people alone.
This time, the one who was sent out was the most powerful and top-notch of the killing swords, the Eight Elements Sword.
They had never lost a fight, and each of their sword techniques was exquisite and deadly.
Qin Qi leisurely put his hands behind his back. In the midst of the panicked officials, he silently watched as if he was admiring how the eight lines of the killing sword cut down the ignorant and stupid person who did not know how high the sky was!
Qin Qi believed that with Qin Feng's strength, he was far from being a match for any of the eight element swords.
Moreover, when Qin Qi thought of this, his eyes jumped. He saw the guards on the stage who were quickly killed by the Eight Elements Sword and laughed silently. Moreover, those so-called guards were all useless people left behind after he had removed the elite forces!
Qin Feng had already made a name for himself on the battlefield. On the first day he returned to the capital, his words in front of the palace left an indelible impression in the hearts of the officials.
Everyone present could only see that the King of Qin who had left the capital a few months ago was clearly different from the King of Qin who had returned today.
The former King of Qin was submissive and indifferent to everything. After the death of the previous emperor, he inherited the throne and handed over the regime. When he was the Crown Prince, he was not outstanding. After becoming the King of Qin, he was still the same. However, the Crown Prince and the King of Qin were completely different! One was the Crown Prince, and the other was a True Lord. Therefore, no one commented on the fact that the Prime Minister was in power and the Empress Dowager was regent.
This phenomenon lasted for a long time. Even when Qin Feng said he was going to fight to the death with Mujiang, the people in the court treated it as a joke. However, he did not expect that the battlefield would send a series of good news. It was all because of the fact that this little Emperor had changed. It was true that he could not accept it for a moment, but there was more or less some hope in this disbelief.
Everyone was like this. When they saw someone turn from the dark side to the bright side, they always felt that there was infinite hope gushing out and light everywhere, even if that person was not themselves.
Thus, when they returned to the capital and went out to welcome them, many people were slightly moved by what they saw. Qin Feng, the change in their king.
Qin Qi knew everything like the back of his hand. He had long trained a pair of eyes that could see through the hearts of the people. He could roughly see through it. At that time, he had already made a plan in his heart.
Was it only because he was in that position that he should be looked forward to and watched by everyone? So everything he had done was going to be buried under that person?
How could he be willing!
There's clearly such a huge difference in strength between the two of them. How can I allow you to exist!
After that, Qin Qi was confident that whatever Qin Feng did wouldn't succeed.
All the information he wanted to know was cut off!
All the things he wanted to rely on were blocked!
He wanted to rectify everything!
In short, as long as he could see it, he would destroy all the methods that he could use to become the real King of Qin and take back the regime.
Qin Qi knew that he could do it. He saw Qin Feng's sad expression and how he couldn't change the situation, which made him feel great.
However, it wasn't enough. Just doing all of this wasn't enough. Those old officials, like the Crown Prince Fu, like the Rites and Shooting Lian Qi Assistant Minister…they saw Qin Feng's efforts and remembered them in their hearts. They actually wanted to help him!
He could not wait any longer! He had to find an opportunity to make a decision before everything turned around.
The best way was to kill him. If he killed him, he would be the closest to the royal bloodline. With his prestige and ability, it would not be difficult for him to become the next King of Qin.
Most importantly, it was easy to kill a person, but it was very difficult to kill the King of Qin.
First of all, as the regent, the empress dowager wouldn't let him die. Only with his existence could she become the regent empress dowager. If he died and the person to take over became her, the regent would lose its role because she wasn't Qin Feng. She had no power, no reliance, and no prestige. Although the Empress Dowager trusted him, she would never hand over the power of the country's leader to him.
Thus, killing Qin Feng had always been a problem. He had to die in front of everyone, or else even if he died, the palace would cover up the news and not announce his death to the outside world. The empress dowager was still the empress dowager, and the prime minister was still the prime minister.
Then, his death would trigger a series of reactions that would push him to the throne.
Today's sacrificial ceremony was the best time. Not only could Qin Qi hide all suspicions from the empress dowager, but the officials would also be witnesses. Everyone would accept this because Qin Feng had died in front of the entire world.
This assassination would be perfect. After killing Qin Feng, the Eight Element Sword would leave behind a message saying that this Qin King was useless and couldn't benefit the people. Then, he would let the people present understand that the death of this King of Qin meant the same to them.
Everything was arranged properly, without any flaws.
It was not easy to reach an agreement with the Prime Minister and obtain his support. Everything had to be foolproof!
The battle on the stage was already decided. Qin Feng was stabbed and he retreated, but no one could protect him.
His martial arts were not weak, but his opponent was too strong.
Qin Feng took the sword and fought to the death with his opponent, but he didn't have any helpers. He had already been stabbed and couldn't take it anymore. The only one who knew martial arts was Qin Qi. He was far away in the crowd and seemed to want to come out, but he was trapped and couldn't.
After a few strokes, the sword in his hand was thrown high into the air. Qin Feng watched in despair as another sword stabbed towards his heart. He retreated to the edge of the platform and closed his eyes…
Under the watchful eyes of the public, in front of all the people who had come to participate in the sacrificial ceremony, and in front of all the officials who were in mourning, was he going to be killed just like that?
Forgive me…Ah Bai, I can't go to the Heavenly Chasm Mountain to bring you home…
A sharp blade cut through the air and the expected pain didn't appear. Qin Feng opened his eyes and the sword in front of him fell along with the assassin.
The assassin's chest was covered in blood from the long arrow feathers. The assassin had been killed by an arrow shot from afar!
Qin Feng turned his head and saw a group of cavalry riding over from the entrance of the circular mound altar. The person on the horse raised his bow and shouted at Qin Feng, The rescue is too late!"
