Longevity by Picking up Attributes in the Battlefield

Perhaps it was also due to the butterfly effect in the workings of fate.

Historically,

Ying Zheng was assassinated by Jing Ke, and at the critical moment, a medicine chest from Xia Wuqie was thrown, causing Jing Ke to fall and miss the fatal strike on Ying Zheng.

But now Xia Wuqie was not in the court at all and naturally didn’t use the medicine chest to throw either.

If it weren’t for Zhao Feng’s sword, perhaps he would have to rely on the Qin’s Qi Fortune for protection. ”Ah...”

Jing Ke let out a scream. The sword penetrated his body, and the intense pain made him cry out.

Meanwhile, Ying Zheng slowly stood up.

He looked at Jing Ke. ”You, why do you want to kill me?”

Ying Zheng looked at Jing Ke with a face full of confusion. ”The tyrannical Qin.” ”Inciting war, harming the common people.” ”If I don’t kill you, countless will die across the land.” Jing Ke looked at Ying Zheng with a face full of hatred.

Even in pain, even as he teetered on the brink of death, his hatred towards the King of Qin was fully displayed.

It was not personal hatred, but public justice.

That’s how he saw it. ”For hundreds of years, how many have died in the endless struggles of the Various Countries?” ”Millions? Tens of millions?” ”I will eliminate the Various Countries and unify the land.” ”To end the wars in the land.” ”This is for the great cause of uniting Huaxia.” ”In terms of weight, what’s lighter or heavier between a moment of war and an eternal struggle, do you not know?” Ying Zheng gazed at Jing Ke, his eyes conveying a hint of disappointment.

With those words,

Jing Ke’s expression changed.

He indeed hadn’t considered that aspect.

But now that the deed was done, he had no chance for regret. ”Just kill me then.”

Jing Ke closed his eyes, unwilling to argue any further.

Meanwhile, within the hall, Qin Wuyang had already been captured by the Imperial Guard Army. ”Great King, are you alright?”

Zhao Feng quickly stepped forward, looking at Ying Zheng with concern.

Looking at Zhao Feng,

Ying Zheng’s face showed a look of being touched, and a sense of relief. ”If it weren’t for your Dragon Spring sword, I might have been killed by Jing Ke.” Ying Zheng said with a smile. ”Luckily, I got here in time.” Zhao Feng also smiled lightly.

This time, he rushed day and night, just in time.

Days and nights of frantic galloping; it wasn’t slower than an urgent report.

Ying Zheng glanced at Jing Ke pinned to the wall.

Then turned to face the entire court of officials and ministers. ”The Yan state is treacherous, sending an envoy to assassinate me; if it weren’t for Zhao Feng’s rescue, I might have died under the assassin’s sword.” ”Pass my decree.” ”Expose the evil deeds of the Yan state to the public, to the whole world.” ”Qin declares war on the Yan state.” Ying Zheng bellowed angrily.

At this moment,

Ying Zheng’s voice carried not only anger but also a sense of satisfaction.

Because, he had been racking his brains for a reason to attack the Yan state, and they delivered it right to his doorstep.

Although this incident was extremely dangerous, almost successful for the assassin, in the end, the Yan state provided a justified reason for military action.

For Ying Zheng, surviving this ordeal was ultimately a pleasant surprise. ”The Yan state is treacherous, assassinating the Great King.” ”The entirety of Qin stands united against them.” ”The Yan state must be eradicated.”

The entire court of civil and military officials, filled with overwhelming hatred, loudly agreed.

At this moment, almost every courtier had been hanging on by a thread, thinking Ying Zheng was really going to be assassinated.

But now that Ying Zheng was unharmed, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

For them, if Ying Zheng had truly been killed, Qin would be in real danger.

The entire Qin might face disintegration.

Especially the Land of the Three Jins, which had only recently been controlled, would certainly plunge into chaos.

And now, seeing Ying Zheng unharmed, everyone breathed a collective sigh of relief, naturally filled with hatred towards the Yan state.

If the ruler is humiliated, the subjects should die! ...
