Chapter 325 Peace
The moon was high, and there was only a little firelight in the dark room. Zhao Gao listened to his men's report and drank all the wine in the glass in his hand, seeming a little regretful.
A few days ago, there was a turmoil in the world, and the war between the Mo family and the Nong family was about to break out, and even the Yin and Yang family seemed to be involved in it.
This turmoil seems to be happening in the Jianghu, but at the deeper level it is a dispute between the two feudal lords of the Qin Dynasty, Hanyang Jun and Changping Jun.
After Lao Ai's death, it was difficult for Lu Buwei, the original prime minister, to stand at the apex of power as before. Falling from the top does not only represent the mourning of one person, but also changes in the internal situation of the entire Qin State.
Lord Changping is the son of Chu, and Zhao Shuang is from Qin. They can unite to deal with the enemy. But when this enemy is no longer as dominant as before, their cooperation will diverge due to the spread of the poison of power, and eventually fall apart.
Whether in the arena or in the court, all these developments are conducive to the trap. But not long ago, a banquet in Huayang Palace made this storm that could have caused a storm disappear.
It's like nothing happened.
"That's it!"
Zhao Gao sighed lightly, the situation was not something he could control now.
The biggest problem facing Zhao Gao is that he has not yet gained the trust of King Qin.
The snare is a sharp weapon, but this sharp weapon has not yet been used by the King of Qin. This is the biggest problem. To solve this problem, Lu Buwei must be removed.
But Zhao Gao and his men couldn't do this alone. Fortunately, many people in Qin also want to get rid of Lu Buwei.
Zhao Gao is not alone.
A black shadow slowly approached, a smile appeared on Zhao Gao's face, and he poured himself a glass of scarlet wine.
"You came!"
"Why did you call me here?"
"Take charge to hide the sun!"
Zhao Gao spoke without any hesitation and directly stated what he meant.
"In this situation, this sword is not so easy to catch."
The figure in the darkness sighed, as if hesitating.
"The leader of the Eight Swords of the King of Yue has never been so easy to do. However, as an assassin, you should understand the truth that the greatest benefits are often achieved when the danger is greatest."
"indeed!"
The figure in the darkness smiled slightly. When he saw Zhao Gao raising his glass, he threw it lightly and was caught by him.
The wine in the wine glass rippled slightly, but the man did not drink it.
"Over the years, I have been looking for the Taoist secret "Lingzhang Sword Technique", but I still haven't found anything -"
Zhao Gao smiled, holding the wine glass in his hand.
"Of course you can't find it. In the past, the five kingdoms attacked Qin. Outside Xianyang City, Zhao Shuang, the general of Zhao State, defeated the Qin army in eight formations. For a while, the huge Qin State was unstoppable and could only let it come. Go. After that, Zhao Shuang died at Longmen Ferry, and the person who killed him was Jing Salamander who now defected from the trap. Don’t you think it’s interesting? "
"You mean Zhao Shuang is not dead?" The figure in the darkness seemed very confused, "Then where is he now?"
"The best way to hide is to be exposed in public, so that everyone knows his existence without realizing that they are actually the same person."
The figure in the darkness was slightly stunned, but he soon noticed the smell.
"Zhao Shuang? Zhao Shuang!"
Zhao Gao smiled, raised the cup in his hand and moved forward.
"So, are you willing to drink this glass of wine?"
The figure in the darkness slowly raised the glass and drank it in one gulp.
"What do you want to do?"
"Zhao Shuang's biggest weakness lies in his identity. In addition to catching Jing Sala, the traitor, he can only do tricks on the Mo family. But at this moment, our strength alone is not his opponent. But we can make some preparations. "
"The Mo family's organ city has always been mysterious, and no one knows its exact location. Even for the other hundreds of families, it is not easy for them to access the most core secrets of the Moh family."
"It doesn't matter, our days are still long. It will take a long time to deal with Zhao Shuang. There is no time to rush now. What's more, Luo Wang's biggest enemy now is Lu Buwei."
Zhao Gao smiled and seemed to have a lot of patience. Throwing the sun-shielding sword to the figure in the darkness, Zhao Gao was sure that the most important thing at this moment was the power to close the snare.
It was the time of autumn harvest, but the land outside the house still looked barren.
In the house behind her, there was a lot of food piled up. The woman was wearing an ordinary linen skirt, but she could not hide her stunning face. She was sitting on the verandah, watching her daughter, who was made of pink and jade, walking in her courtyard. Playing happily, with a smile on his face.
This moment of peace was the biggest reason why she had not given up despite struggling in the bloodshed through the invisible trap for several years.
A giant man appeared outside the door, holding several chickens in his hands.
"Uncle Jingqing!"
When the little girl saw the person coming, she ran over happily. But for this little girl, the ceremony was somewhat respectful.
When the woman saw the ceremony, her expression was a little complicated. But soon, when he saw the person following the ceremony, his confusion turned into wariness.
The little girl looked at the man curiously, as if she didn't understand why her uncle Jianqing, who could break a wall with one punch, treated this ordinary pretty boy with such respect.
Dianqing placed the chicken he was holding in the chicken coop behind the house, while Zhao Shuang came forward.
"How are you, madam?"
"You're welcome!"
The Frightened Salamander stood up and bowed. Without the Jing Salamander Sword, she became more restrained and her skills became a bit deeper.
Zhao Shuang took out a bottle of elixir from his arms and handed it to Jing Salamander.
"Madam's injury is not terminal after all. She will be fine with careful care."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Jing salamander actually felt a little uneasy. The more kind Zhao Shuang was to their mother and daughter, the more worried she became.
"Mother, who is this brother?"
elder brother?
Zhao Shuang looked at the little girl pulling on the skirt of Jing Salamander, who had a look of innocence on her face.
"he is…"
For a moment, Jingyu didn't seem to know how to describe Zhao Shuang, but he heard Zhao Shuang's words.
"I'm your mother's friend."
"Is that so?"
The little girl didn't seem to believe it, because her mother didn't treat her brother like a friend.
"Yan'er, go play first!"
"oh!"
The little girl held the windmill and was soon attracted by the movement in the chicken coop, playing with the ceremony.
"Yan'er, what are you going to do?"
"What do you want, Your Majesty?"
There was a look of vigilance on Jing Salamander's face.
"You should know that with Yan'er's status, it is impossible for her to live a carefree life here. In this turbulent world, at least you must master the power of self-preservation. Otherwise, the current Peace is the biggest disaster for Yan'er in the future."
Zhao Shuang's words made Jing salamander fall into deep thinking.
