Chapter 535 Ants

Hope Valley.

In the mist, Long Ji carefully avoided the disciples in the valley and came to a remote deep forest.

Because, where she was standing, there was a spider symbol on the big tree in front of her.

A sign belonging to the snare.

The forest was quiet and footsteps were approaching. Longji didn't see the person coming clearly, so she became a little impatient.

"Didn't I tell you that this place is heavily guarded..."

Before Long Ji finished speaking, she was shocked when she saw the visitor and immediately knelt down.

"I've met Lord Zhiri."

"It seems that several years of comfortable life have made you completely forget about the vigilance that a snare assassin should have."

Zhanri chuckled, with a hint of contempt in his words.

As for Long Ji, she was kneeling on the ground, looking a little uneasy. The long sword in Zhan Ri's hand was not unsheathed, and he gently placed it on her shoulder, making her tremble.

Fear emerged from the bottom of my heart.

"Do you know whose blood is on me?"

"I don't know."

"The person you contacted has been killed by me. A person who fails to complete his mission time and time again has no value to the snare."

There was a warning in the words that covered the sun.

Dragon Princess has been in Jiwang Valley for a long time. These days, she gradually disobeys orders. The Luowang Assassin who originally contacted her made several invitations, but Long Ji blocked them all because the time was not ripe.

Because of this, Zhan Ricai personally came to Yan Mo's base camp.

"Subordinate...subordinate understands!"

"Have you forgotten the great feud between your tribe and Zhao Shuang, Dragon Princess?"

"My subordinates have never forgotten this!"

Speaking of Zhao Shuang, Longji's face became very gloomy.

Covering the sun with a smile.

"Staying in the sun for a long time will make people fear the cold and biting darkness. People will become weak because of this. For the assassins of the snare, this is fatal. But if you forget, the snare will remind you of."

"Subordinate... I will never forget."

"That's good!"

"But although my subordinates are in the Hope Valley, Yan Mo's secrets are difficult to find out."

"Luo Wang is not interested in the Mo family's mechanism skills. Because there is still a public loser in this world."

Zhanri looked at Long Ji, and the mask on his face looked very strange.

"You should know what Luo Sheng wants you to do?"

"Subordinate...subordinate..."

Longji naturally knew the meaning of the snare, but after being in the Valley of Hope for so long, her heart was finally shaken. Especially after Tianming was born, Longji's cold heart completely melted.

She was afraid of returning to the trap, and she was even more afraid that her identity would be exposed and she would be abandoned by everyone.

Just when Longji was in a dilemma, Zhanri came over.

The coldness on the strange mask penetrated into Long Ji's fair face, causing her to suddenly wake up and lean back.

"In the trap, you should have learned to betray long ago. Or maybe you are too weak now to even betray."

"Subordinate..."

"Call your child Tianming!"

Longji was shocked. At this moment, her mother's instinct made her completely abandon all the hesitations she had just now.

"My subordinates must complete the instructions of Lord Zhanri."

"Very good, Yan Mo is planning a very confidential matter recently. Luo Wang wants you to find out the secret."

After Zhanri finished speaking, he turned around and disappeared into the forest mist.

Long Ji sat on the ground blankly, not reacting for a long time. She didn't know what to do?

Handan.

"Have you collected all the food?"

"According to your Majesty's instructions, I have recovered 1.2 million stones from a group of old ministers of the Zhao Kingdom in Handan at the price of forty coins. When the coins were insufficient, they were also mortgaged with objects."

"These people are really rich!"

Zhao Shuang smiled and felt certain in his heart.

If so much food had been given to Li Mu's border troops, how could the Zhao State be destroyed so quickly? At least, the pace of the war can be extended for a few more years.

Zhao Guo can also get a chance to breathe.

At this time, these people sold all the grain and made profits.

"In addition, our army clashed with the Yan army at the border of Yan State. Prince Dan of Yan once wanted to intercept 300,000 stones of grain and grass back to Yan State, but ultimately failed."

"Yan Dan?"

Zhao Shuang smiled and didn't care much.

Since the destruction of Zhao State, most of the elites of Qin State have returned to Guanzhong. In Zhao, only Li Xin's flying army was still stationed in Hengshan County and did not return to Guanzhong.

However, it's enough.

With Li Xin here, neither the Yan army nor the Dai army could make any big noise.

"You all go down!"

"promise!"

The room was empty, Zhao Shuang turned around and looked at the map behind him.

The current situation north of the river is that the Qin army has occupied most of the Zhao Kingdom. It can even be said that it is most of the sacred lands of Zhao State.

To the north of Hengshan County is the land of mountains and ridges, which is vast but sparsely populated.

Handan County, Julu County, Hengshan County.

The three counties were initially established, but they have already reached a large scale.

The land of Dukang that Yan State now cedes is a large agricultural irrigation area including the capital of Yan State, which is very prosperous. If it is in the hands of Qin, then almost all the rich land north of the river will be in Qin's hands.

The State of Yan was equivalent to giving up half of its family property to the State of Qin. The rest is a rugged land with mountains and ridges, which has greater military needs.

"Your Majesty, the lieutenant has arrived."

Zhao Shuang turned around and saw his servant reporting outside.

"Wei Liao?"

This guy was quite familiar. He entered Zhao Shuang's house and immediately looked at the map in the house.

“What a detailed map!”

North of the river, every city, land, forest and river has almost all detailed records.

Wei Liao knew that it would take a lot of effort to describe it in such detail. In fact, the manpower and material resources involved behind this picture are quite astonishing.

"How did you come?"

"The Queen Mother Wei wants to see me, so I have to go no matter what."

"Then why did you come to Handan?"

"In the past, Sikong Ma once admonished King Zhao to move to Qin and cede half of the country to Qin to scare the princes and arouse the desire of all countries to unite. The so-called use of strong medicine for serious illnesses may be able to cure dying illnesses. But now the Yan Kingdom It’s already meat on the chopping block, why do you need to use this strong medicine?”

"An ant can live in vain, let alone a king and prince?"

Zhao Shuang smiled and spoke slowly.

Wei Liao had already heard about Zhao Shuang's actions along the way. Now looking at Zhao Shuang's appearance, he wanted to remind him, but he knew it was unnecessary and just smiled softly.

"What Mr. Hanyang said is true."

Yan land.

Jing Ke and Gao Jianli were drinking in the house. The door slowly opened and the wind and snow blew in.

Qin Wuyang walked in with heavy steps.

Jing Ke was overjoyed and was about to say hello, but saw Qin Wuyang silent at this time, which was very different from the past.

Yan Dan followed and walked in from the door.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince!"

Jing Ke was a little surprised, Yan Dan at this time was also different from the past. But he saw him walking up to Jing Ke and making a big salute.

"Your Highness, what are you doing?"

Yan Dan raised his body and looked at Jing Ke.

"Dan has something to do, and I hope it will be fulfilled. This move is related to the Yan country - to the life and death of the entire world."

"Your Highness, what are you..."

There was silence in the room for a moment, and Yan Dan's eyes seemed to be flashing with bright flames.
