Chapter 500: Chapter 212: Yan’s Fear! (3)
Regarding this.
Ying Zheng has already made up his mind.
Although he cannot go to the battlefield to kill enemies.
There are too many places where Qin needs manpower.
Roads.
Fortresses.
The Great Wall of the Northern Border.
There are just too many.
“Great King, is there anything else?”
“If not, then I will first return to the mansion to prepare.” Zhao Feng asked with a smile.
“You’re in such a hurry?” Ying Zheng remarked somewhat helplessly.
If someone else could spend this much time with him, they would consider it a great honor, but this young man didn’t even want to stay.
“Time is pressing, if my trusted aides didn’t need rest, I would have set out overnight.” Zhao Feng laughed.
At this moment.
Footsteps could be heard from outside the hall.
“Great King.”
“Lady Mi, Mrs. Hu, and the other ladies of the palace are asking to see you.”
Zhao Gao’s hoarse voice sounded outside the hall.
Upon hearing this.
Ying Zheng slightly furrowed his brow.
“Great King.”
“Your concubines are all here to care for you.” Zhao Feng teased.
“Care?” Ying Zheng coldly chuckled, “Perhaps some of them wish for my death even more.”
“If I die, wouldn’t they have a chance.”
Upon hearing this.
Zhao Feng repeatedly waved his hand, “Great King, you shouldn’t tell me too much, what I should know and what I shouldn’t, I’d rather not hear it.”
“You, this young man…”
Seeing Zhao Feng acting as if it didn’t concern him and also being cautious, Ying Zheng was amused, “You really have the same disposition as your father-in-law, after all, he is my father-in-law, greatly influenced by him.”
However.
Ying Zheng quickly came back to his senses.
“Enter.”
Ying Zheng shouted towards the outside of the hall.
The hall doors opened.
A dozen elegantly dressed women in palace attire flooded into the main hall.
Upon entering, a wave of sadness immediately surged.
“Is the Great King unharmed?”
“I heard about the assassination attempt on the Great King, and I was truly worried.”
“Sob, it’s good the Great King is unharmed, I was scared to death.”
“Those damned assassins dared to attack the Great King…”
“Great King…”
A chorus of voices from the concubines chattering, some even with tears in their eyes, appearing deeply distressed.
Seeing this scene.
Zhao Feng couldn’t help but laugh but was holding it in.
He glanced at Ying Zheng.
At this moment, his face was also very dark.
“I take my leave.”
Zhao Feng slowly stood up, cupped his hands towards Ying Zheng, and directly turned to leave the hall.
Watching Zhao Feng’s departing figure.
Ying Zheng shook his head helplessly.
Yet looking at these weeping concubines before him, Ying Zheng waved his hand coldly, saying, “Enough.”
“I am not dead yet!”
With these words.
The crying of the concubines immediately ceased.
“We are worried about the Great King.”
“It’s good the Great King is unharmed.”
“Indeed.”
“It’s good the Great King is unharmed…”
All the concubines spoke out.
Seeing them like this.
Ying Zheng didn’t say anything further.
Occupying this position.
Hypocrisy.
Too much of it.
In the entire harem.
None of these concubines showed genuine emotion; they were all here because of alliances and for power.
In the entire world, the only one who had true feelings for Ying Zheng was Xia Dong’er.
As for Zhao Feng.
After leaving Zhangtai Palace.
Zhao Gao immediately greeted him.
“Senior General, your sword saved the day today, truly admirable.”
“If it weren’t for you, the Great King would have been in danger.”
Zhao Gao said respectfully.
“It’s the duty of a minister.”
“No need for such words, Mister Zhao.” Zhao Feng said very calmly.
After speaking.
Zhao Feng left with large strides.
Watching Zhao Feng’s figure from behind.
Zhao Gao’s eyes flickered with an inexplicable meaning, “What a pity, if only he could serve Prince Huhai, how wonderful it would be.”
“With his help, what fear does Fusu have.”
—————–
Royal Mansion!
“Father-in-law.”
“Regarding today, what are your thoughts?”
After leaving the Royal Palace, Zhao Feng went to the Royal Mansion.
“Fortunately, you arrived in time, otherwise the Great King would have been in danger.”
“That assassin had extraordinary skills; if not for your sword, the Great King would surely have been harmed.”
“Afterwards, the Imperial Guard Army also checked, the dagger was poisoned, deadly upon contact.”
Wang Jian also spoke with a tone of lingering fear.
“The Yan state, it is finished this time.”
“Father-in-law.”
“Tomorrow I will set off for Yunzhong.”
“When Yan’er and the others return, I ask Father-in-law to take care of them.” Zhao Feng spoke again.
“You are leaving tomorrow?” Wang Jian was taken aback, not expecting Zhao Feng to be this quick.
“Seize the opportunity before the news reaches the Yan state, immediately move troops to attack.”
“Catch the Yan state off guard.” Zhao Feng coldly laughed.
Wang Jian pondered for a moment, then nodded, “The Great King agreed?”
“Naturally.”
Zhao Feng nodded.
“Go.”
“Xianyang City is under my watch.” Wang Jian said immediately.
“I leave it to you, Father-in-law.” Zhao Feng immediately bowed slightly.
After returning to the mansion.
“Zhang Ming.” Zhao Feng called.
“Master.” Zhang Ming came quickly.
“Send a message by carrier pigeon, instruct Zhang Han to lead his cavalry to attack the Yan state.”
“Have Tu Sui and Li You support the operation.”
“Catch the Yan state off guard.”
Zhao Feng ordered coldly.
“Understood.” Zhang Ming immediately withdrew.
“Carrier pigeon message.”
“Can arrive within three days.”
“No matter how fast the Yan state’s Dark Guards are, they couldn’t be faster than a carrier pigeon.”
“This time, the credit for eliminating a state, I want it.”
“Nineteenth rank in nobility, Grand Commandant’s respect.”
“I must have it.” Zhao Feng’s eyes were filled with a fervent glow.
For him.
This was fundamental to becoming stronger.
“Two more ranks in nobility.”
“And the honor of Grand Commandant.”
“If calculated strictly, there’s still the title of lord.”
“This is a title of respect.”
“I want all of these.”
Zhao Feng thought to himself internally.
