As Bai Yan escorted Yao Jia out of Xinzheng, it didn't take long for Ye to catch up on horseback.
"Captain!"
Ye looked at Bai Yan.
After waiting for the things brought by the old servant, Ye followed Bai Yan's words and lived alone in a small house in Xinzheng City.
The envoy and his entourage lived in the inn, and were almost always under the surveillance of the nobles and the Han clan's spies. It was inevitable that the old servant would be found to be in contact with him in order to wait for orders in the dark. Therefore, in the past three days, Ye had been in the small town.
Abandon.
"There's no movement over there in Chu State?"
Bai Yan asked in a low voice while riding his horse.
"Not received message yet."
Ye shook his head. If there was any news, the old servant would definitely send someone to contact him.
But he hasn't received any news within three days.
"There's actually no movement!"
When Bai Yan heard what Ye said, he murmured softly.
Although Yao Jia decided to leave Xinzheng as soon as possible this time, counting the time, there should be movement somewhere in the Chu Kingdom.
"Go back to Xincheng first!"
Bai Yan opened his mouth and said.
Since there is no movement anywhere in Chu State, it is useless to think about it now.
Before Baofu showed his power and surrendered to Qin, if the Chu State wanted to send more than dozens of dead soldiers to assassinate him, they would definitely contact Baofu.
The dead men had successfully assassinated Bai Yu before, so the Chu State would definitely not suspect that someone from Yangzhen had surrendered to Qin.
Therefore, there is great fortune in Yang Zhen, and he will know if there is any movement in Chu State.
In Xinzheng City.
In Han Ling's mansion, a huge coffin was placed in the main hall.
After learning that Han Ling had been assassinated and died, Han Ling's biological father Han Qi came to the mansion with his clan members. He was now wearing white mourning clothes and kneeling on both sides of the coffin.
"Woooooooooo~! My son~! Mrs. Zhang deserves to die!"
"Woooooo~!"
An old woman with a lot of white hair was wailing with a heartbroken look on her face. The grief in her words was heartbreaking to hear.
From ancient times to the present, one of the greatest sorrows in the world is when a person with white hair gives a gift to a person with black hair.
Beside the old woman, Bao Shi and other women also had tears on their faces and red and swollen eyes.
Along with a distinguished clan leader, dignitaries from Xinzheng, and members of the royal family came to express their condolences, among the bursts of wailing, there were inevitably many sighs.
"Condolences!"
One after another, the men bowed their hands and saluted the old man Han Qi, with expressions of regret on their faces.
Listen to the wailing.
Almost everyone couldn't help but sigh, thinking that the fifth generation of the Zhang family would actually do such a thing now.
"Mrs. Han Ling, my condolences!"
After bowing his hands with the old man Han Qi, he bowed his hands to the Bao family.
Different from the emotion and regret just now, when everyone saw the Bao family for the first time, no matter it was the elders of the gentry, the powerful, or the royal family, as long as it was a man, they couldn't help but express wonder in their eyes, and they had no intention of saying so.
There is a hint of greed in it.
Even though Mr. Bao was wearing mourning clothes and a mourning cloth at this moment, his charm and beauty could not be concealed.
Especially seeing the contrast between the sad, red and swollen eyes and the charming appearance, one can't help but feel pity for her and wish she could hold her in her arms.
At present, countless dignitaries and nobles are thinking about how to get this beauty in the future.
After all, Han Ling is dead, so Bao can naturally remarry someone else.
If you can get such a beauty, it will be a great blessing. Even if you tell people about it, it will make others envious.
But now Han Ling has just died.
Moreover, the coffin is still in the main hall and there is no burial. Naturally, no one will turn their eyes and try to get close to the Bao family at this time.
In the main hall.
Bao clan was sitting on his knees, with tears on his face and a heartbroken expression. He was facing one after another nobles and nobles, nodding in return.
"lady!"
"Di~!"
"Si!!"
A woman in mourning clothes couldn't help but screamed when she saw Bao Shi fainted, and quickly helped Bao Shi who had fainted on the ground.
"Take my wife down quickly to rest!"
Han Ling's elder brother Han Shen and his younger brother Han Shi stopped and looked at their wives and others who were already helping Bao Shi. There was some regret in their eyes. It would have been better if they had been faster just now.
Even Han Ling's biological brothers wanted this, let alone other men.
The old man, Han Qi, quickly asked several maids to help Mr. Bao go to his room to rest.
Looking at Bao Shi who fainted at this moment, not to mention the old man Han Qi, the old woman and others all thought that Bao Shi was overly sad.
After all, the Bao family had witnessed Han Ling being assassinated and died before, and had never rested. It was normal for him to be in a coma with grief.
inside the room.
Several maids helped Bao to the room and gently placed her on the bed.
"You guys go down and make some chicken soup!"
One maid ordered to the other maids.
The maid's name is Xi. A few years ago, her parents were killed by bandits. Fortunately, Bao's family passed by and she survived. She was not tortured by bandits or sold.
This is also the reason why she gained the trust of the Bao family. She was the maid who saw Han Ling talking to Zhang Liang before.
After the other maids leave the room.
Bao Shi, who was lying on the bed, slowly opened his eyes.
"lady!"
The maid came to the window and whispered to Bao: "The envoy of the State of Qin has left Xinzheng today."
Bao Shi nodded, no surprise.
When she met Bai Yan that day, Bai Yan told her that if the King of Han did not surrender, the envoy Yao Jia would leave Xinzheng today.
At first, she wanted to save her life for one life, and never thought that she would survive after killing Han Ling.
Unexpectedly, Bai Yan's plan could not only kill Han Ling, but she would not have to die.
The investigating officers questioned her several times.
But in Bai Yan's game, even Han Ling's cronies, servants of the mansion, and Lao Zhen saw it with their own eyes.
No one would suspect her of lying.
As for Ms. Zhang who escaped, she was not worried.
"Is there any news about Mrs. Zhang?"
Bao asked.
Zhang's ability to kill Xinzheng was something neither she nor Bai Yan expected.
"After Zhang left the east gate, all Zhang's followers blocked the city gate with their orders, so no one knew where Zhang went after leaving the city gate."
The maid answered softly.
Bao didn't say anything else. She asked Zhang not because she was worried that Zhang would expose her.
The matter is now confirmed, and Zhang's words cannot change it.
She just thought that Bai Yan seemed to want to take Zhang Liang's life, but Zhang was able to escape from Xinzheng.
Calculate this way.
Bai Yan helped her kill Han Ling, but his own goal failed.
"Bai Yan!"
Bao Shi murmured and slowly closed her beautiful eyes.
When she thought of this name, she couldn't help but think of her younger brother's filial piety.
Opening her beautiful eyes again, she looked at the room in front of her with disgust.
She doesn't want to stay in this mansion anymore.
After Han Ling's death, South Korean officials were asking about her affairs, making it impossible for her to leave Xinzheng.
But Bai Yan said that he would take her away from here.
"Are you going to follow him and leave?"
Bao Shi thought, his eyes full of complexity.
If she leaves with Bai Yan, she cannot return to the Bao clan, because only then can she feel how greedy the nobles and nobles look at her.
Returning to the Bao clan, her fate can be imagined.
But Bai Yan is from Qin. If she follows Bai Yan, it means that she has to remain anonymous, otherwise someone will notice something fishy and know that she framed the Zhang family.
Although Zhang has escaped from Xinzheng, his reputation has been completely ruined.
If the Zhang family can regain its former reputation.
She knows.
With Zhang's past reputation, how much trouble will there be in the future!
