Chapter 166: Reviewing the troops and appointing generals, embarking on the journey home!

Ying Zheng chatted with Wang Jian for a long time.

He finally understood why Wang Jian had chosen to commit suicide earlier.

The reason was that he was worried that revealing the truth would lead to a conflict between him and Lu Buwei, bringing greater impact to the Qin Guo.

Because in his view, Lu Buwei might be somewhat dissatisfied with the Qin Wang, but he did not directly order him to kill the Qin Wang in the letter, and according to the timeline, after the Qin Wang returned to the country this time, he would be able to hold the capping ceremony and take personal control of the government.

At that time, Lu Buwei would return power to the Qin Wang.

The Qin Wang would not know about those hidden circumstances and would not turn against Lu Buwei.

The relationship between the two could still be restored to its original state, supporting each other in the name of ruler and subject, and creating a great cause together.

Until he learned from Ying Zheng that he had encountered an assassination by Luo Wang while in the State of Han, Wang Jian finally realized that things were not that simple.

After clarifying the cause of the matter, Ying Zheng was not angry because Wang Jian intended to harm him.

In the final analysis, Wang Jian did this for the sake of the Qin Guo.

He treated Wang Jian with increasing courtesy, and seeing this, Wang Jian felt increasingly ashamed in his heart.

The relationship between the two warmed up rapidly in a short period of time.

When they walked out of the camp tent together, they found countless soldiers tightly surrounding the camp tent, looking anxious.

"What is this?"

Wang Jian raised his eyebrows, somewhat puzzled.

Su Xuan walked over slowly and waved his hand; in an instant, the gale that had been lingering around the camp tent and blocking the steps of many soldiers disappeared.

Many soldiers, realizing this, stepped forward one after another. A lieutenant hurriedly asked Wang Jian: "General, are you unharmed?"

Wang Jian heard the concern in their words and shook his head gently: "Soldiers, do not worry; I am unharmed."

"I want to introduce someone to everyone!"

As he spoke, he took the initiative to step aside and said to the many soldiers surrounding him: "This is the current King, the King of my Great Qin!"

Many soldiers were stunned upon hearing this, their faces showing shock.

Meng Tian, who was mingling in the crowd, had thought that the meeting between the King and General Wang Jian would be a scene of swords drawn and bows bent, but the current situation exceeded his expectations.

When General Wang Jian introduced the King, it seemed to be in a tone of pride.

Proud that the Qin Guo had such a King.

After introducing Ying Zheng's identity to the surrounding soldiers, Wang Jian said to Ying Zheng: "Since the King has arrived in the army, would you be interested in accompanying me to the platform to review the troops and see the majestic spirit of my Great Qin soldiers?"

Ying Zheng said happily: "How could I miss such an opportunity!"

And so, under Wang Jian's arrangement, many lieutenants received orders and went to prepare.

The next day, Ying Zheng accompanied Wang Jian to the platform to review the troops and see the style of the Great Qin soldiers.

As a result, for Ying Zheng, it was very shocking.

Although he knew that the Great Qin soldiers were very powerful and could be said to awe the world—otherwise, they could not have suppressed the Six States—he had grown up in the palace before this, and even if he knew the world situation, how could it compare to the shock of seeing it with his own eyes?

This experience was destined to be unforgettable for Ying Zheng.

However, he also knew that it had been a long time since he left the palace, and it was time to leave.

He stayed in the military camp for a few more days.

Finally, the diplomatic mission led by Li Si officially left the Wu Sui border and headed toward Xianyang.

In a dense forest.

While Ying Zheng and the others were returning to Xianyang.

A man wearing a bronze mask, dressed in armor, and holding a wide-bladed great sword stood quietly.

The sound of breaking air rang out behind him.

"Did you succeed?"

The man asked the person behind him.

"Wang Jian changed his mind and did not strike at him!"

The person behind him lowered his head and recounted what had happened in the military camp.

Upon learning that Wang Jian had not struck at that person, but instead had taken the initiative to reveal that person's identity before many soldiers and invited that person to the platform to review the troops, the masked man's expression beneath the mask turned slightly gloomy.

"I underestimated Wang Jian!"

After the death of Lord Wuan Bai Qi, the dissatisfaction accumulated over so many years, the hatred that had built up—if used properly, it would have been an unprecedented sharp blade. As it turned out, Wang Jian had forcibly endured this hatred, preventing it from erupting.

Combined with his final actions, it was clear he had given up on revenge.

Such determination made the man admire him.

But this did not move the man.

In the final analysis, it was because Ying Zheng had left the palace privately; such a good opportunity was truly hard to give up!

Especially since that person had also chosen to strike.

If he did not follow and strike as well, he would truly feel a bit sorry.

After all, they were former superiors; the person sent by the other party to carry out the mission had already failed, so for the sake of reason and emotion, he had to help his former superior check for omissions and fill the gaps, completing this mission.

As for after completion, the crime of regicide would, of course, be borne by the former superior.

"Notify Duanshui and let him strike; he must kill that person before he reaches Xianyang!"

The masked man said angrily to the person behind him.

"Yes!"

The man with the lowered head received the order, his figure flashed away, and he left this place.

The sunlight spilled down, reflecting on his departing back, and clearly, a large spider was seen crouching on a spider web.

The carriage swayed.

Since leaving Wu Sui, Ying Zheng's mood had become better and better.

Although he learned some hidden circumstances from Wang Jian's mouth, combined with his personal experience in Xinzheng, he knew that deep undercurrents were hidden within the Qin Guo. However, after reviewing the majestic spirit of the Great Qin soldiers and obtaining some promises from Wang Jian.

No matter how difficult the road ahead was, he was full of confidence.

Inside the carriage, Ying Zheng bowed to Su Xuan again: "Mr. Su, that day in the military camp, if it weren't for you..."

Su Xuan said lightly: "If the Qin Wang wants to thank me, then forget it. I only hope the Qin Wang remembers the deal between us!"

The word "deal" did not sound very good, but it was very realistic.

Ying Zheng nodded, indicating he remembered.

What Su Xuan sought was the position of State Preceptor.

If at the beginning, he still had some hesitation about whether to grant Su Xuan the position of State Preceptor, then after experiencing so many things, especially in the military camp, because of Su Xuan, he and General Wang Jian had cleared up their misunderstandings and even gained a strong reinforcement, his gratitude to Su Xuan was increasingly difficult to describe in words.

Su Xuan wanted to say something else, but at this moment, he seemed to sense something and said in a deep voice: "Stop the carriage!"

Ying Zheng was stunned upon hearing this, and Gainie also became alert immediately. ===== CHAPTER 168 =====
