Chapter 95: Wang Yi

In the Zilan Pavilion of Xinzheng, Xuan Xuan Jian’s assassination was not the end.

That was just a beginning.

Su Xuan had said more than once in front of Ying Zheng that the Net’s assassination had not ended. Until this moment, Ying Zheng finally realized it.

The one who wanted to kill him this time was not just the Net assassin.

There was also Wang Yi.

Or rather, it was the person behind Wang Yi who deliberately wanted him to die.

As long as he had not returned to the palace of Xianyang, this crisis had never been resolved.

Wang Yi, as a great general of the Qin army, controlled all 100,000 troops. In the center of this camp, even a fly could hardly fly out, let alone a living person like him.

In other words, even if he died here, no one would know.

Because Wang Yi had already cut off all channels for information to spread outside.

I am afraid that even if he revealed his identity to Wang Yi now, Wang Yi would not acknowledge it.

Because from the beginning, Wang Yi knew his true identity, but even so, he still said such things in front of Li Si.

"Wang Yi is an old general of our Qin state. Does even he want to put me to death?"

Ying Zheng was very unwilling. He could still accept the Net’s assassination. After all, the Net was controlled by that person. In the struggle for power, it was either you die or I live. That person, in order to monopolize power, would try every means to eliminate him, the threat, which was understandable.

The Net was just a tool for the other party to achieve the goal.

But Wang Yi was different. As an old general of Qin, he had fought south and north for Qin for many years, experienced countless wars, and served several generations of Qin kings. Did such an old general not know what consequences killing him would bring?

"Wang Yi, I have always treated you well. What exactly is the matter that has caused you to have such great hatred for me?"

Ying Zheng said to himself in a deep voice, looking heartbroken.

"Perhaps Wang Yi’s hatred is not aimed at the current Qin Wang!" Su Xuan spoke calmly.

Ying Zheng looked at Su Xuan suddenly. "What do you mean by this, sir?"

"As far as I know, Wang Yi was once a subordinate of Wu'an Jun Bai Qi, and experienced many wars with Bai Qi. During the Battle of Lord Changping, he was Bai Qi’s deputy general. After the Battle of Lord Changping, because Bai Qi aroused the suspicion of the Qin Zhao Wang, he was ordered to commit suicide."

"Although Wang Yi was still valued, he inevitably had complaints in his heart about the death of his old superior!"

"Is it because of Bai Qi’s death? That made him harbor hatred for the Qin Wang?"

Ying Zheng learned the reason and couldn't help but feel a little depressed.

The one who ordered Bai Qi to commit suicide was his great-grandfather, Zhao Wang. If Wang Yi wanted to hate, he should hate Zhao Wang. Why hate him?

As for why he didn't hate his grandfather and father, well, these two reigned for too short a time, totaling only a few years.

On the contrary, since he ascended the throne, although he had not yet taken personal control, his reign had already exceeded the time of his grandfather and father combined.

"I am afraid it is more than that."

Su Xuan continued: "In the time of Bai Qi, Qin was powerful and shocked the world. It can be said that the six states of the world today have all been attacked by Bai Qi, and the six-state soldiers who died directly or indirectly at Bai Qi’s hands totaled a full million."

"After Bai Qi died, although Wang Yi was valued by Qin, he first failed to attack Handan, and the Qin army he commanded was surrounded by Lord Lord Chunshen of Chu and Lord Lord Xinling of Wei, and the Qin army suffered heavy casualties."

"He also led the army to meet the Vertical Alliance army of the five states commanded by Lord Lord Xinling, and was defeated and fled... After that, although the army he commanded achieved some results, it was ultimately not as good as in the time of Bai Qi."

"Although Qin was still the strongest country in the world at this time, it suffered setbacks several times in the war, and each time it suffered heavy losses. For an old man like Wang Yi who had followed Bai Qi to win many wars, this was an unacceptable thing."

"Every failure in war would remind him of the Bai Qi of the past, and then, his hatred for the Qin Wang would deepen a bit more."

"Especially after the Qin Wang ascended the throne, although it was because he had not yet come of age and had not yet taken personal control, Wang Yi did not care about these. He would only attribute the failure of the war to the incompetence of the Qin Wang."

"A year ago, Lord Chang'an, Cheng Jiao, as the Qin Wang’s own younger brother, chose to rebel. This shows that even the Qin Wang’s brother had lost confidence in the Qin Wang, let alone an old general like Wang Yi who already had complaints about the Qin Wang."

Su Xuan seemed to be the roundworm in Wang Yi’s belly, telling Wang Yi’s thoughts and motives for wanting to harm Ying Zheng in detail.

Hearing these words from Su Xuan, especially mentioning Cheng Jiao who rebelled a year ago, Ying Zheng’s face became very ugly.

The Cheng Jiao rebellion was his heart knot and something he could not accept.

Just as Su Xuan said, even his brother had lost confidence in him and chose to rebel, let alone others.

But immediately after, he thought of his own ambitions.

Even if the road ahead was difficult, he would not give up his ambitions.

Gradually, Ying Zheng made a decision.

"Mr. Su, I want to see General Wang!"

In the final analysis, the reason why Wang Yi chose to betray and tried to harm him was because he had lost confidence in the Qin Wang.

0

Attributing the failure of Qin’s war to the incompetence of the Qin Wang.

And excluding his complaints about the Qin Wang, at least, he was a loyal minister to Qin, and he was wholehearted.

Therefore, Ying Zheng decided to meet Wang Yi in person and let this old general understand one thing.

That was that he, Ying Zheng, was not a waste. He would let Wang Yi see a Qin state that was even more powerful than in the time of Zhao Wang and Bai Qi.

Gai Nie heard this and drew his sword immediately. No matter what the Qin Wang wanted to do, he would live and die with him.

Yan Yan Lingji also looked at Ying Zheng in surprise, not understanding what this Qin Wang was thinking.

Su Xuan could guess what Ying Zheng was thinking.

Perhaps it was a bit naive, but in the end, he agreed to Ying Zheng’s request.

"What is difficult about this!"

He smiled indifferently and said to Ying Zheng: "Please follow me closely, Qin Wang!"

As he spoke, he dispersed the bright mirror condensed by the "Moon-Taking" technique and walked toward the outside of the camp.

Ying Zheng followed closely, Gai Nie guarded with his sword, and Yan Yan Lingji thought about it and followed behind.

As they walked out of the camp, the soldiers guarding outside the camp immediately surrounded them, intending to intercept them. Earlier, they had received Wang Yi’s order that no one in the camp could go out without his invitation.

Su Xuan said calmly, "Wind, come!"

A strong wind blew, blowing all the soldiers to one side.
