At the Yan Crown Prince's residence,
The moon was already deep, but Yan Dan still couldn't fall asleep. He got up and went to the courtyard, looking at the bright moon in the sky and sighing.
"Just a few decades ago, my Yan Country was still the overlord of the Northern Lands. Why have we fallen to this state now?”
"In the past, the State of Qin was just a pawn of the Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and Ying Zheng was just a hostage when he was young. But now, a new force has emerged, and even Ying Zheng, a young master who was not valued, has been able to act tyrannically in the Capital of Yan.”
"However, this way, the Qin people will definitely be even more careless. The success rate of their plan to assassinate Qin will also be higher!”
"I hope so!"
Yan Dan sighed heavily again.
Although he had temporarily appeased Jing Ke and Gao Jianli and successfully made them hate the State of Qin even more, the humiliation in Crown Prince Dan's heart could not be eliminated.
"Da da!"
At this moment, the ground suddenly began to tremble rapidly. The sound of hurried horse hooves was getting closer and closer to the Crown Prince's residence.
"Who dares to ride a horse in Ji City in the middle of the night? Moreover, there seem to be nearly a hundred people here.”
"Could it be that Uncle Wang no longer wants to hide it and is preparing to openly attack this prince and steal the position of Crown Prince?”
"If that's the case, it seems like a good opportunity!”
"Men, quickly go and invite Jing Ke and Gao Jianli over!”
Crown Prince Dan's heart moved, and his face was not angry but happy.
Due to King Xi of Yan being muddle-headed for many years, the power of the court had long fallen into the hands of Yan Chunjun. If he could use this opportunity to kill Yan Chunjun, Crown Prince Dan would be able to take control of the power of Yan Country, reorganize the court, and prepare troops for battle.
As long as Jing Ke succeeded in assassinating Ying Zheng, the morale of the Qin army would surely fall into chaos. At that time, Crown Prince Dan could join hands with Wang Jia of Zhao, who had always been on good terms with him, to counterattack Handan, or even directly enter Guanzhong!
"At that time, this prince, no, this king will make that Ying Che kneel in front of this king and beg for mercy!”
Crown Prince Dan thought to himself.
However,
"Your Highness, bad news. A large group of cavalrymen has suddenly arrived outside the door. They kill everyone they see and have already charged into the government office!”
"Big Brother Jing Ke has already brought some men to stop them. However, the other party's martial strength is extremely high. The ordinary soldiers are all first-class.”
"Your Highness, please retreat quickly!"
Just as Crown Prince Dan was looking forward to the future, Gao Jianli, whose face was covered in blood, suddenly stumbled into the backyard and said anxiously.
"What?"
"Uncle Wang actually has so many experts under him?”
Crown Prince Dan said in disbelief.
Although he had been a figurehead for many years, he was still the crown prince. Crown Prince Dan still had many spies in Ji City, and even the residence of Lord Yanchun was no exception.
According to the intelligence, although Yan Chunjun had many hanger-ons, he only had a few first-class experts like Vanishing Shadow under him. How did the number suddenly increase by dozens of times?
A hundred first-rate experts and above were more than enough to overturn the entire Ji City, let alone the residence of the Crown Prince of Yan.
"Your Highness, don't think too much. Let's go!”
"As long as Your Highness is still around, there is still hope for the Yan Country!”
Gao Jianli said anxiously.
"No!"
"Warrior Jing Ke is still fighting in the front yard. We can't leave him behind!”
"Let's go together!"
Hearing the sounds of fighting getting closer and closer, Yan Dan was silent for a moment. Then, he suddenly pulled out his sword and said,"
"Good!"
Gao Jianli was overjoyed when he saw this, but he did not notice the strange look that flashed across Yan Dan's eyes.
......
In the front courtyard of the Yan Crown Prince's residence.
"Ying Che, why is it you?"
"Was it Yan Chunjun's doing?”
Jing Ke brandished the Sundered Rainbow sword and used all his strength to block several lances with great difficulty. He took the time to scan the entire battlefield and his eyes widened.
This Young Master Envoy of the Great Qin Empire should not be in the Fei Xue Pavilion with the snow maidens. Why would he bring so many cavalrymen to the Crown Prince's Residence?
Yan Chunjun must have been afraid of Crown Prince Dan's prestige in the Yan Country, so he colluded with this young master of Qin to subvert the Yan Country.
With Yan Chunjun's influence in the Yan Country, it was not difficult to let in a hundred Qin Country cavalry.
Even the strength of this group of cavalrymen was too ridiculous!
In the past, the Mohist School, which was once on par with the Confucians, barely had more than ten first-rate experts!
The State of Qin was actually already powerful to such an extent?
No wonder Crown Prince Dan was so desperate to assassinate the King of Qin, Ying Zheng!
"Big brother, His Highness has brought the experts from the residence to support us.”
"It's actually you!"
"Ying Che, eat my sword!"
Just as Jing Ke was filled with questions, Gao Jianli, who was holding the Freezing Water Sword, entered the front yard. When he saw Ying Che, his eyes turned red. He became one with his sword and rushed towards Ying Che.
Since ancient times, love rivals were mortal enemies. Moreover, Ying Che had just snatched the peerless dancer Snow Maiden, whom Gao Jianli had admired for a long time, in front of him a few hours ago!
The moment he saw Ying Che, Gao Jianli instantly forgot everything. His eyes were only filled with the hateful man who had stolen his beloved!
"Be careful!"
"These black armored cavalrymen are very strong!”
Seeing Gao Jianli's reckless behavior, Jing Ke became anxious and hurriedly rushed forward to help protect Gao Jianli.
"Clang!"
"Clang!"
"Clang!"
After a few ear-piercing sounds of metal clashing, Jing Ke forcefully swept away the several lances that were stabbing at Gao Jianli at the cost of a light injury on his left arm.
"Fortunately, this courtyard isn't big, and it's not easy to use a three-meter-long lance!”
"Otherwise, Jianli and I would have been buried here today!”
"Jianli, hurry up and do it. There's not much time left!”
Jing Ke hesitated for a moment.
Although it would be even more difficult to assassinate Ying Zheng after killing the prince of Qin, he and Gao Jianli had a life-and-death friendship, which was far beyond the Crown Prince Pill.
Moreover, with the terror of these black armored cavalrymen, if they did not kill Ying Che and disrupt their formation, even Jing Ke would not have any hope of leaving.
More than 100 first-rate experts were too terrifying!
Even during the heyday of the Zhou Dynasty, there might not have been so many experts.
"Good!"
"Ying Che, give me your head!"
Looking at Ying Che, who seemed to have been scared silly and stood rooted to the ground, Gao Jianli could not help but reveal a sinister smile on his face as he laughed complacently.
His Freezing Water Sword came from a famous sword. Not only was it extremely sharp, but it could also release a freezing aura to freeze the opponent. It was ranked seventh on the top ten famous swords of Feng Huzi!
In Gao Jianli's opinion, not to mention a mere Ying Che, even assassinating the King of Qin, Ying Zheng, was enough!
However, at the next moment.
"It's flashy but useless!"
"Sword-breaking stance!"
Ying Che shouted.
A dazzling sword light suddenly appeared in the void and met the Freezing Water Sword.
"Clang!"
A soft sound rang out.
The sword light had already easily broken through the Freezing Water Sword at an extremely astonishing speed and slashed at Gao Jianli.
The speed was so fast that Gao Jianli did not have time to react at all. He only saw a sword light coming at him like lightning, filling his entire pupil!
Then,
A bloody scar suddenly appeared on Gao Jianli's neck, and blood splattered everywhere.
"What a terrifying Sword Qi!"
Gao Jianli's face was filled with disbelief. He staggered back a few steps and fell heavily to the ground.
With a single strike, Shui Han's sword broke and Gao Jianli's head fell to the ground!
