227 B.C.
Xianyang city
In the solemn palace, all the civil and military officials wore their official robes and respectfully entered the hall.
The court meetings of the past few days were different from the usual tranquility. After entering the hall, everyone looked behind them, and there was a din.
Ta Ta Ta Ta!
His footsteps were heavy, and his entire body was flickering with a black light.
The third son of the King of Qin, Gongzi Jianglu.
To all the officials in the court, Young Master Jianglu was an unfamiliar name.
This was because the chances of this name appearing were too few and far between, or rather, it was too low-key.
Compared to the Eldest Young Master Fu Su, the Third Young Master Jiang Lu had been living alone since birth. He had been unusually low-key since he was young, so low-key that people subconsciously forgot about him.
The Eldest Young Master had inherited the Confucian culture, and now he had recruited many aides under him.
Almost all the officials had already regarded Young Master Fu Su as the future heir to the throne.
The other young masters more or less showed up often and heard some news from time to time.
But only the Third Young Master Jiang Lu.
Among all the civil and military officials in the court, he was the most low-key young master. Perhaps the only time he had heard of this name was when the King of Qin, Ying Zheng, had given him this name after he was born.
Now, they met again in court.
This appearance surprised all the officials.
The pitch-black armor even covered half of his face.
The sixteen-year-old third young master, Jiang Lu, showed his face for the first time.
However, this was the first time he had shown himself, and his appearance in full armor made people frown.
In court, not to mention armor, even iron weapons were not allowed in the laws of Great Qin.
However, looking at the expressionless King of Qin, Ying Zheng, standing on the high platform, all the officials lowered their heads and said nothing.
After all, this was a time of war, and everything was treated differently.
Or rather, when Young Master Jiang Lu came in, the surrounding air became colder, and no one dared to say anything.
"Do you have anything to report?" Ying Zheng said in a deep voice.
A eunuch stood in front of the officials. He looked at the civil and military officials with a sinister expression. After sweeping his gaze around, his gaze focused on the last person to enter. His body was covered in black armor.
Childe will go to Lu.
"This subject Meng Jia has something to report."
At this moment, a voice sounded.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Meng Jia.
This person was the concubine son of the King of Qin's favorite minister. It could also be said that he had been an attendant since the King of Qin had not ascended the throne.
"Speak." The king nodded.
Meng Jia took a step forward and said excitedly," The King of Yan is very afraid of Your Majesty's power and prestige. He doesn't dare to send troops to resist. He is willing to be the subjects of the State of Qin and pay taxes like the counties of the State of Qin. They are in fear and trepidation. They would like to cut off Fan Yuqi's head and present a map of the area around the Governor Kang of the State of Yan.”
fan Yuqi
Hearing this name, the entire court was in an uproar.
He was a general of the Qin Kingdom. He had followed Lao Ai in his rebellion, then betrayed the Qin Kingdom. In the end, he went to the Yan Kingdom and was taken in by the Crown Prince Dan of Yan Kingdom.
He did not expect that in order to beg for mercy, he would even take this person's head.
Three years ago, Ying Zheng sent General Neishi Teng to lead his troops to destroy the Han Kingdom and capture King An of Han. The obtained land of Han was set up in Yingchuan Prefecture, and Han perished.
Last year, the Qin army invaded Handan, the capital of Zhao, and the King of Zhao was forced to surrender to Qin. Zhao was defeated.
Currently, the Qin Country was hesitating whether to attack the Yan Country or the Wei Country.
He did not expect the Yan Country to be scared out of their wits.
"Haha, I didn't expect that before my Qin Country sent out an army, the Yan Country was already scared out of their wits.”Ying Zheng was extremely excited.
"Everything depends on the Great King's command."
Li Si said respectfully in front of the civil servant.
This news was indeed exciting to the State of Qin.
"Summon, the envoy of the Yan Country is here!"
The eunuch's voice rang out.
The messenger waiting outside the hall had already entered the hall.
He was mighty and exuded a calm temperament.
"The envoy of the Yan Country, Jing Ke, greets the king!”Jing Ke said respectfully.
There was a box behind him and a map in his hand.
Jing Ke offered a map?
In the main hall, Jiang Lu, who was attending court for the first time, tilted his head.
For the first time, Jiang Lu made a move after entering the hall.
He looked at Jing Ke.
Jing Ke had just finished giving Ying Zheng the map and walked into the front hall.
Ever since the King of Qin ascended the throne, there had been strict laws. Anyone who stepped within a hundred steps of the King of Qin without the King's order would be beheaded.
However, because Jing Ke had contributed the map, he had undergone a strict inspection in front of the hall and did not have any weapons on him.
Therefore, Ying Zheng let Jing Ke come forward with great confidence.
The plan went smoothly.
At least, Jing Ke felt that this time, it was exceptionally smooth.
However, after taking three steps closer to Qin Wang, he felt as if his entire body was being pricked by needles.
It was Jiang Lu's gaze.
At this moment, Jiang Lu finally understood what was happening in front of him.
Jing Ke assassinated the King of Qin.
