Yan Kingdom, Wuyang City, Yishui Headquarters.

When Ju Wu came to look for someone, he found that Jing Ke was not there, and he didn't know where he went, so he could only return to his mansion.

When he returned to the mansion, Yan Dan sent someone to invite, saying that he had urgent matters to discuss, and he must go to the prince's mansion.

Ju Wu thought about it, but still took his subordinates and went to the prince's mansion.

Although the two longed for each other to die, in the face of the situation in the Central Plains, they had to unite for a short time, and the pressure on them from the Qin State was too great. In particular, the Qin army broke through Shouchun, which doomed the Chu State to be destroyed, and now it is just to subdue those people who refuse to surrender in the Chu State.

Then in the next move, the Qin State will definitely fight with the Yan State, and no one can stop this trend. Yan Wangxi complained to Ju Wu more than once, and wanted to move the capital to Liaodong, so as not to be beaten by Yingzheng. Yan Wangxi was too afraid of Ying Zheng, and even in order to reduce Ying Zheng's misunderstanding, he deliberately moved the capital to the nearby Jicheng, and shrank the army line, concentrating all the troops in one place, for fear that the Qin army would call.

King Yan was really afraid, and he privately transferred the garrison guards in front, and Chen Bing was on the bank of the Yishui River, which annoyed Yingzheng, and also sent 30,000 garrison guards to confront him. In particular, news came from the north that the soldiers of Yongcheng used the rhetoric of the border guards to communicate with the Yan garrison guards in order to resist the attack of the Huns.

Every winter, the Xiongnu would come to the Great Wall to defend the invasion, and the border guards of the Qin, Zhao, and Yan countries also often carried out such exchanges. In the face of this situation, Yan Wangxi dared to let the garrison continue to stay on the bank of the Yishui River, and hurriedly transferred those soldiers back. When the garrison army left, it was natural to send local troops to station, so as not to call the Qin army.

Since the Qin State can fight on two fronts, then it can send troops to attack the Yan State when it is fighting the Chu State. Although Zhao Jia repeatedly stated that the Chu State had not been captured in its entirety, and the Qin State would not attack the Yan State, Yan Wangxi was afraid and still made preparations before the war. So much so that the monitoring of Yan Dan is no longer questioned, and a lot of military power is given.

Yan Dan has military power, but he has always felt uncomfortable, because everyone knows that King Yan has the heart to move the capital. Then those soldiers in his hands must stay behind and fight head-on with the Qin army, how can Yan Dan have confidence. If the Yan army can't even defeat the Zhao army, it will be impossible to defeat the Qin army.

When Ju Wu arrived at the prince's mansion and met with Tian Guang and Yan Dan, the three of them sat down and drank a bottle of wine, and saw Yan Dan say directly: "Master Taifu, you are your father's teacher, and your father obeys you." But we all know that my father has the heart to move the capital, and everyone in Jicheng knows about it. We can't move the capital, otherwise when the Qin State comes, how can the front-line soldiers have the confidence to fight, can you dissuade my father? ”

Ju Wu smiled bitterly and said: "My grievances with the crown prince must be put aside now, King Qin Yingzheng is too powerful, he actually has the courage to attack Chu for the second time, and the battle is won." The next step is definitely to fight with my Yan Kingdom, so the king is very afraid. ”

"If a person has a heart of fear, even if I am the king's teacher, he will not listen to me. For the sake of today, we only need to find another way, if we limit the footsteps of King Qin. King Qin was too anxious, he had just obtained the land of Sanjin and attacked Shouchun, and there was not much time to stop in the middle, which would cause signs of local instability. ”

"We have to try our best to delay his march, as long as it drags on for three years, the unstable forces in the Qin State will gradually rebel, and that is our opportunity. I hope that the Empress Dowager Yingran, south of the Yangtze River, will delay for a while, and we will be able to calmly deploy troops with Zhao Jia of Daicheng, and wait for the battle of the Xiongnu to come, and if the King of Qin wants to attack us again, it will be impossible. ”

Tian Guang asked, "Does Taifu have any specific countermeasures?" ”

Ju Wuyan said: "My strategy has been exhausted, now it depends on the means of the Empress Dowager Yingran." That queen mother is more ruthless than us, for the sake of her own power, she doesn't even care about the interests of the two clans, and catches up with Changping Jun to the position of the king of Chu, this trick is really vicious. ”

Yan Dan sighed: "When I heard that I had surrendered, I was worried about Da Yan. In our circle, I have always been led by the negative and the winning government, and now that I have even lost the negative defeat, I am not the opponent of the winning government. No matter how vicious Empress Dowager Yingran's methods are, she will lose in the end, and we can't pin the interests of Yan Guo in the hands of others. ”

"I know Yingzheng very well, and the reason why he is so anxious is to beat us all down in one go. Every big war has to be prepared for a long time, and Qin State has done the best at this point, while I, Yan State, am passively prepared. After withdrawing the garrison army, the local troops in various parts of the Yan Kingdom were not Yang Duanhe's opponents at all. ”

"Even if I defeat Yang Duanhe, as well as many armies such as Meng Wu and Wang Qian, my Great Yan National Strength is already worse than that of Qin State, where can I afford to consume it so much? There is only one way to do the current situation. ”

Ju Wu and Tian Guang showed joy when they heard this, they couldn't think of a way, Yan Dan actually came up with it, and asked in unison: "Ji will come out?" ”

Yan Dan said firmly: "Assassinate Yingzheng." ”

Hearing this, the two shook their heads at the same time, how could King Qin be so easy to assassinate?

But he heard Yan Dan say affirmatively: "Don't shake your head, killing Ying Zheng is the best way." ”

"Ying Zheng sits firmly on the throne of the king of Qin, Qin State cannot find a second royal family to replace him, as long as he dies, Qin State will inevitably stage a prince competition, will continue to consume national strength in civil strife, and it is impossible to use troops externally. Taifu also said that we need a lot of time, and how can we give us so much time to swallow up the world with the footsteps of Yingzheng? ”

Tian Guang shook his head and said, "What the prince said is very reasonable, but you should also think that King Qin is not so easy to assassinate." King Qin has experienced more assassinations than anyone else, King Qin himself is from a training camp, not to mention those peers in the people, even if the worshippers make a move, they can't kill him. ”

Ju Wu echoed on the side: "Mr. Tian Guang is right, if he could really kill Yingzheng, I would have killed him a long time ago." ”

Yan Danyan said: "Except for assassinating Ying Zheng, what else can we do?" Ying Zheng won't give us much time. I can even think of Ying Zheng's thoughts, even in winter, the Qin army will cross the Yangtze River and capture Lanling City. In the land south of the Yangtze River, the four seasons are like spring, but there is no reason why winter in our north is not conducive to marching. Ying Zheng can't give us time, he will definitely attack Changping Jun in winter and take the entire Chu realm. ”

"When that time comes, the Qin State will have no worries, and it will attack my Dayan next spring. Regardless of whether my father gave me military power or not, thinking about it with my toes, we are not the opponents of the Qin army. Master Taifu, we can't wait for next autumn at all. If the Yan Kingdom is gone, how can we talk about the grievances between us? ”

There was silence for a while, Yan Dan was right, Yingzheng really wouldn't give Yan Guo so much time. Every time Yingzheng sent troops, he won the opponent in a blitzkrieg, the Qin army was good at quick battles, and the Qin State was even more famous generals, and the Yan State could not find generals like Wang Jian and Meng Wu who could fight big battles.

In the end, Tian Guang sighed: "The general trend of the world, the prince can see it very clearly, but have you ever thought that Yingzheng is not so easy to kill." The masters we know can't make a move on Ying Zheng, without the pinnacle of the best strength, they can't get close at all, how can they kill him? ”

Yan Dan said seriously: "In today's world, there is only one person who can kill Ying Zheng, and that is Jing Ke. ”

Ju Wu and Tian Guang glanced at each other and said in unison: "No, Jing Ke can't die, he won't go to the Qin State." ”

Hearing such resolute words, Yan Dan not only did not get angry, but still said confidently: "As long as the two of you help me introduce me, I have the confidence to persuade Jing Ke to go to the Qin State to assassinate Yingzheng." The main problem now is that Jing Ke doesn't want to see me, and I don't know where to offend him, even if I go to Yishui many times, I still can't see his people. ”

got up and saluted the two, Yan Dan said solemnly: "Please help me introduce you, I must see Jing Ke." ”

Seeing Yan Dan bending down in front of them, the two of them understood at the same time that Yan Dan was determined to do this, and if they didn't agree, Yan Dan wouldn't get up at all. But they all knew that Jing Ke didn't want to see Yan Dan, mainly because he was afraid of being involved in disputes within the royal family. Yishui is not easy to reunify, if it is mixed with the royal forces, many Yishui people will not be able to live in peace.

Yan Dan's resoluteness still moved Tian Guang, and he saw Tian Guang say bitterly: "Master Taifu, the prince is determined to Jing Ke, let's help guide the way." Now is not the time to assassinate Ying Zheng, Jing Ke will refuse, we can't represent Jing Ke's intentions, it's better to listen to his opinion. ”

Ju Wu said helplessly: "Anyway, I can't think of any other way, it's a good thing to listen to Jing Ke's meaning." Then go ahead, but please assure me that if Jing Ke refuses, you can't have hatred for Yi Shui, Yi Shui's existence is very important to my royal family. ”

Yan Dan's face was happy, of course he knew the importance of Yi Shui, and many things in the royal family that were not seen in light needed to be done by Yi Shui. The most afraid thing is that you can't see Jing Ke, as long as you can see it, the rest depends on your own means.

Following Ju Wu and Tian Guang, Yan Dan walked into the backyard of Yishui's headquarters and saw Jing Ke sitting there drinking.

The arrival of the three of them, Jing Ke seemed to have expected it a long time ago, and there was no displeasure at all, but he said lightly: "The prince came too early, and the two of you knew that the time had not come, so they brought the prince over, making it difficult for me to do it." ”

The three of them walked to Jing Ke's table and sat down, Ju Wu took a sip of wine, and said, "The prince is determined to see you, if I don't bring him, he will definitely find someone else to bring him." There are so many people in Yishui, the prince can always find a few people who are familiar with you. ”

Tian Guang didn't say a word, quietly waiting for Yan Dan to speak, listening to how he persuaded Jing Ke.

Yan Dan personally poured a bottle of wine for Jing Ke, sat down and said: "It's too difficult for this prince to see you, but I can't help but come, for the sake of Dayan, I must ask you to do something." ”

Jing Ke pretended not to know and asked, "What does the prince want to ask me to do?" ”

Yan Dan said directly: "Assassinate Yingzheng." ”

Jing Ke refused on the spot: "Please go back to the prince, I can't enter Qin, let alone kill the king." I am the leader of Yi Shui, and I am responsible for all Yi Shui people, even if Yan State is annexed by Qin State, Ying Zheng will not be able to disadvantage me Yi Shui, so why should I annoy him. ”

"What's more, I can't kill Yingzheng at all, there are many masters around him, and just one Zhongli is not something I can deal with. The prince wants me to assassinate Yingzheng, that is to let me die, I am curious, why can you move me? With my current status, even the king won't want me to die, so why do you want to make me unhappy? ”

Next, Yan Dan said something, which impressed the three people present, and completely said it to Jing Ke's heart.
