~3 min read 426 words

Since the other party disregarded the affection of these years, then do not blame him for not talking about affection.

As for Su Xuan, upon learning that the one who instigated Duanshui was Yanyue, he showed a thoughtful look.

After interrogating Duanshui, Seeing Ying Zheng did not execute him; after all, keeping him could serve as a witness.

He had Gainie keep Duanshui under strict guard.

Afterward, the diplomatic mission's convoy continued to advance.

On the subsequent journey, they did not encounter an ambush; it seemed that Duanshui's ambush was the last one.

However, Seeing Ying Zheng did not relax because of this.

The successive assassinations made him realize that the waters within the Qin Guo were extremely deep.

After returning to the country this time, he would settle accounts with these people one by one.

On this day, the diplomatic mission's convoy officially entered Xianyang.

Xianyang.

This was the name of the capital of the Qin Guo. It was established as the capital during the reign of Duke Xiao of Qin, at which time the national strength advanced by leaps and bounds due to the Shang Yang Reform. The old capital, Yueyang, could no longer accommodate this tiger of Great Qin, so under the coordination of Shang Yang, Xianyang City was finally built on a plain near the Wei River, not far from Hangu Pass.

"Xian" implies the water virtue of Qin, "Yang" predicts that the Qin Guo is like the rising sun.

The ancient city was solemn, standing on the western land; the eight hundred li of Qin River could be seen at a glance from the ancient city.

This was a majestic and domineering city.

After passing through the gate of Xianyang City and entering this city with a large population, one truly stepped into the political, economic, and cultural center of the Qin Guo.

Although "Yemu" (Night Curtain) was an organization of the State of Han, the State of Han and the Qin Guo were neighbors, and originally Yemu had a cooperative relationship with the Luo Wang of the Qin Guo, so in the Qin Guo, there was also a part of Yemu's forces lurking.

Perhaps this force was not powerful, but it was easy to find a place for Su Xuan and the others to settle down.

That's right, after arriving near Xianyang, Su Xuan and Yan Lingji left Seeing Ying Zheng's team and entered Xianyang alone.

Next, he would lurk in Xianyang City for a period of time, becoming a hidden help for Seeing Ying Zheng. ===== CHAPTER 174 =====
