Chapter 117 Assassination

The crossbow arrows came very quickly and were very powerful.

With Bai Zhong's strength, it was not difficult to deflect the crossbow arrow with one knife. But at the moment when he was about to dodge, he had a bold idea. He simply removed all defenses, put the knife in front of the arrow tip, and used his physical strength to carry it.

.

boom!

The horizontal sword was very strong, and the crossbow arrows kept hitting, but it broke the scabbard and hit Bai Zhong in front of the chest.

Bai Zhong was hit hard and fell in front of Ying Zheng.

In fact, he was still conscious, but he pretended to be unconscious, closed his eyes, and fell unconscious.

Seeing that someone was trying to assassinate Ying Zheng, all the nearby soldiers quickly raised their alert, and the Zhao nobleman was immediately pinned to the ground.

Wang Jian shouted: "Protect the king!"

Meng Wu shouted: "Get all the nobles of Zhao!"

Even Zhao Gao took out his sword and stood carefully next to Ying Zheng to prevent other assassins.

A large number of soldiers protected Ying Zheng.

Some soldiers rushed to arrest people.

At the same time, they all had the idea that in the entire Handan City, the people who would assassinate Ying Zheng were the nobles of Zhao State. Those nobles might want revenge. As long as Ying Zheng dies, they may be able to restore the country.

"Bai Qing!"

Only then did Ying Zheng come back to his senses. Thinking of Bai Zhong desperately blocking his way just now, he said urgently: "Come and save Bai Qing, call the doctors, go quickly!"

He shouted until his voice was almost hoarse.

Zhao Gao quickly found two people and carried Baizhong into the gate of the palace city. Another person couldn't wait to find a doctor.

The turmoil here ended quickly.

But Ying Zheng's anger did not end so easily.

Meng Wu acted very quickly. In less than an hour, he captured all the nobles of the Zhao Kingdom and brought them to Ying Zheng, including the mastermind who wanted to kill Ying Zheng.

The person who was most afraid was Zhao Wangqian, who stood tremblingly in front of Ying Zheng.

When he saw Zhao Wangqian, Ying Zheng thought of the years when he was a hostage, as well as Gongzi Jia, Yan Dan who was still very timid at that time, and even the treacherous Guo Kai and others. He quickly went through it in his mind, and then became angry.

Said: "Kill them all!"

Zhao Wangqian and others wailed and were finally dragged down.

Wang Jian briefly reported the results of Handan, and then said: "Your Majesty, Zhao Jia fled to Dai and was rescued by Yan Dan. I have asked Wang Ben to march to Yishui, but Yan Dan still refuses to hand him over.

"

"Zhao Jia!"

He was from the Zhao State again. Ying Zheng was filled with anger and could not vent it at this time. He said angrily: "Let Wang Ben take the land of Dai and cross the Yishui River. If King Yan and Yan Dan don't make friends with each other, I will destroy the State of Yan first!"

"

"only!"

Wang Jian said.

At this time, the doctor came back.

"Your Majesty, fortunately there was a knife to block it. General Bai only had one broken rib, and the rest is not serious!"

The doctor said.

Ying Zheng put his mind down and asked, "Is Bai Qing awake?"

The doctor nodded and said, "I'm awake."

Just wake up.

Ying Zheng went to see Bai Zhong in person.

At this time, Bai Zhong's face was a little pale, and the wound seemed to be very painful, but the crossbow arrow still hit his ribs, and he broke it deliberately.

After saving Ying Zheng's life, as long as he doesn't rebel or do anything heinous in the Qin Dynasty, he can basically rise to prominence without having to worry about other problems.

Baizhong decided to stay among the Qin army and wanted to change the outcome of the Qin Dynasty. It was essential to gain Ying Zheng's trust.

"King!"

Bai Zhong wants to get up.

Ying Zheng said quickly: "Bai Qing doesn't need to get up, and you don't need to be polite. You are injured, just lie down. Bai Qing gave me this life."

Bai Zhong smiled and said: "I didn't think much about it at the time. I just wanted to save the king, and then I rushed forward."

"You don't have any other physical discomforts?"

Ying Zheng asked with concern. Hearing Bai Zhong speak so calmly, he felt even more grateful.

Bai Zhong shook his head slightly.

"Thanks to Bai Qing today!"

Ying Zheng believed that Bai Zhong was not only his confidant, but also very loyal and could save his own life. He regretted: "Maybe I shouldn't have come here, but Bai Qing, you were right at the beginning. I have a certain obsession with Zhao Guo."

"Nian, when I was a hostage here, I got to know many people from Zhao State. Now that I have destroyed Zhao State, I can't help but want to come to Handan. Not only to revisit the old place, but also to see their reaction when they see me."

At this point, he stopped again.

He had never tried to talk about this kind of thing to anyone before.

Today is the first time, and I said it unconsciously.

Bai Zhong could understand his feelings. He had been bullied here before, but now he was powerful, so of course he wanted to come back and show off.

You can also say that you will come back and slap those people in the face.

By the way, take a look at how those who bully themselves regret it.

"Zhao Qian was not the King of Zhao back then, and Zhao Jia was still preparing to seize power from Zhao Qian."

Ying Zheng continued: "And Yan Dan..."

Bai Zhong suddenly interrupted: "Your Majesty, Zhao Jia fled to Daidi. I originally arranged for someone to intercept and kill him, but he was rescued by Yan Dan."

"I already know about this, so I asked Wang Ben to attack Daidi and force King Yan to surrender."

Mentioning Yan Dan, Ying Zheng snorted coldly and said: "He escaped from Xianyang the year before last. Don't think that I don't know that he can escape back. It's because I remember the old relationship and can't bear to kill him."

Bai Zhong understood.

With Hei Bingtai around, Yan Dan can't escape Ying Zheng's spy if he wants to escape.

"Your Majesty is merciful!"

Bai Zhong said.

"Maybe!"

Ying Zheng inadvertently talked too much and sighed: "You should rest first while I deal with other matters, Zhao Gao!"

"I'm here!"

Zhao Gao quickly opened the door and came in.

Ying Zheng said: "You come to take care of Bai Qing. If anything goes wrong, I will kill you!"

After that he left the room.

Zhao Gao said with envy on his face: "I have been with the king for so many years, and this is the first time I have seen the king care so much about others. Congratulations to General Bai."

If you help the king block a fatal arrow, you will definitely get a lot of benefits.

Although Zhao Gao was envious, he didn't dare to block him because he didn't have Bai Zhong's strength.

"My life was almost gone."

Bai Zhong frowned as if enduring pain and said: "It's okay to be alive!"

Zhao Gao saw him getting up again and said quickly: "General Bai, don't move. If the king knows about it, he will definitely not be able to spare me!"

Bai Zhong shook his head and said, "I'm fine!"

His physical strength was easy to recover. He looked outside and saw that it was already night, so he didn't force himself to get up and simply slept comfortably.

Early the next morning.

Wang Li and the others all came.

"General, are you okay?"

Meng Tian said worriedly.

Bai Zhong shook his head and said: "Of course it's okay, just rest for a few days and you'll be fine. What are you all doing here? Go out and train!"

He drove them all away and stayed alone for a whole morning, and then Ying Zheng came again.

It would take another two days until Bai Zhong could get up and walk, and everyone would feel relieved.

Ying Zheng was worried that there would be other accidents if he continued to stay in Handan, so after the third day, he ordered to return to Xianyang.
Chapter completed!
