Daqin Baizhisheng

On the way down the mountain, the beautiful killer Shanrou sneezed as she walked. The elder sister in white looked back at her, then showed a look of pity on her face. She wrapped the snow-colored stealth suit around her sister and said,"You didn't even investigate the other party's background before assassinating. Fortunately, the other party has no intention of taking our lives this time."

The snow-colored stealth suit was lined with real fox fur, which was very warm. Shanrou looked at her elder sister gratefully and asked,"Sister, how did you find me?"

The elder sister laughed and took off the white scarf on her head with her fingertips. Her long purple orchid hair fluttered to her waist, and a kind of purple orchid style suddenly appeared in the snow on the mountain road.

She pointed at her sister's slightly cold nose and said lightly,"You, maybe you are really not suitable to be a killer. You should go back with me to learn the piano. Maybe you can become a master of piano skills."

Hearing this, Shanrou's expression dimmed. She thought of what Bai Xiaosheng said, and then thought of the targets she had assassinated before, and suddenly realized that it was her elder sister who had been protecting her in secret.

As she thought about it, she gradually frowned and asked,"Sister, Wanxiangmen never shows up to do business. How did you know that...that lecher is from Wanxiangmen?"

The woman named"Sister" took out a card with white text on a black background and said with emotion,"The other party deliberately let us know." Then she looked back at the Taoist temple on Cangxue Mountain that blends in with the white snow, and murmured,"Perhaps this time, Princess Qingxue has really met the right person.……"

Time never stops flowing. As the old saying goes, a sixty-year period in the mountains is a thousand years in the world. During the five days that Bai Xiaosheng was in retreat, the Qin-Zhao War ended in bloodshed. In this war, the Qin army defeated the Zhao army, captured fifteen cities of Zhao, and captured thirty thousand Zhao soldiers. Even the commander Le Jian was captured alive.

In this battle, Zhao was defeated, completely defeated.

Thirty thousand people may not be too many or too few, but for the current Zhao, thirty thousand young and strong men are not just thirty thousand soldiers, but thirty thousand families. If the Qin party imitates Bai Qi and carries out another"Changping Pit Killing", then Zhao will not have the strength to fight other countries for at least five years.

Some people may find it ridiculous that thirty thousand people will not bring down a country, but this is indeed the case for the current Zhao.

When the news came, the whole Handan was in an uproar. It was unknown whether it was a Qin spy or an ambitious person in Zhao who spread the rumor that"the Qin army is going to attack Handan again" (Bai Qi almost destroyed Zhao, but a slight mistake can lead to a great mistake). The rumor caused panic in Handan, and even the King of Zhao was terrified.

Although the King of Zhao promptly banned the spread of rumors in the city and sent Guo Kai to lead troops to investigate the source of the rumors, he finally curbed the spread of rumors, but it was of no avail.

The national strength of Qin is at least three times that of Zhao now, and the number of troops is several times that of Zhao. Therefore, they can afford to fight and don't care how many Qin soldiers will be sacrificed, but Zhao can't. Once the 30,000 prisoners are gone, Wei and Han will definitely take advantage of the fire to rob

"What a failure, this music room……"

Sitting on the throne, King Zhao rubbed his forehead tiredly. He originally thought that with Le Jian's ability, even if he was defeated, it would not be too tragic, but he did not expect that...

Looking at the noisy ministers in the palace, King Zhao was also very annoyed.

He was originally unwilling to go to war with the behemoth Qin State, but now that the war has begun, it is useless to think about these things. Don't forget that there are Yan troops watching from behind, and there may be a danger of the country's destruction.

"Stop arguing!" The King of Zhao was upset and stopped the quarrel of the ministers in the hall. He said in a deep voice,"I summoned you to discuss the strategy of rescuing the prisoners, not to watch you quarreling! Lord Pingyuan, you are the prime minister and my brother, you speak first."

"Yes." Prime Minister Pingyuan Jun Zhao Sheng stepped out and bowed, and replied in a deep voice,"I think that since Meng Ao was captured but not killed this time, there must be other purposes."

"How do you think so?"

Pingyuan Jun was about to reply, but Shangqing Guo Kai could not help but said sarcastically:"Don't forget, Prime Minister, it was also in Changping a few years ago that we delayed negotiating with the Qin army, which led to the killing of more than 400,000 men of our Zhao. At present, our most important thing is to rescue the 30,000 troops including Marshal Lejian, instead of thinking about these trivial things."

Seeing that he was interrupted, Pingyuan Jun Zhao Sheng frowned, but because Guo Kai was a Shangqing and was deeply loved by King Zhao, and his power was no less than that of the Prime Minister, he could not get angry, so he had to ignore it and patiently explained to King Zhao:"30,000 is not the same as 400,000. Even if the Qin army kills more prisoners, it doesn't matter. Not long ago, my brother received news that the Qin envoy had entered the city……"

It is not logical for the victorious country to send envoys to the defeated country. After thinking about it, it should be that Qin has other purposes.

"Are they going to cede territory again?"King Zhao frowned. Although he was unwilling to admit it, Zhao was now in a very passive position and could only wait for Qin to make the first move so that he could counter it.

""Could it be for the purpose of holding Zheng as a hostage?" Pingyuan Jun thought secretly. He was thinking, if Qin really wanted Ying Zheng, should Zhao respond or not?

While thinking, Guo Kai stepped out and said with a smile:"My king, why don't you ask 'Sir' to make another deal? I think, with your talent and wisdom, you will definitely be able to help my king relieve his worries.""

"That's right." The King of Zhao was overjoyed, but the next moment his joy turned into worry, and he said in a low voice,"But what else can I trade with him? He doesn't want gold, silver, or money, and he doesn't want high positions or generous salaries.……"

Guo Kai's face was full of smiles, and he subconsciously stroked the jade ring on his thumb, which was just presented by the Qin envoy. He said with a smile:"Money and property are not enough, but my king can exchange people for the policy."

The eyes of the King of Zhao suddenly lit up. In exchange for the policy, the first person he thought of was Princess Yigan. It would be great if he could take this opportunity to marry Bai Xiaosheng and tie him to the State of Zhao.

"Mr. Guo, which princess do you think is suitable for me?"

Seeing that King Zhao had given in, Guo Kai smiled so much that his eyes almost narrowed into a line:"Princess Qingxue"

"Qian'er……"The look in the eyes of the King of Zhao changed. He was not because he loved Zhao Qian, his daughter, but because he was worried that Bai Xiaosheng would despise him. Although Zhao Qian was still a young girl waiting to be married, she had been promised to three husbands. Add to that the royal scandal that happened a while ago...

Guo Kai, who called himself the worm in the belly of the King of Zhao, could see what the King of Zhao was hesitating about. He immediately approached the throne and whispered in his ear that something very pleasant had happened in the Taoist temple on Cangxue Mountain outside Handan City.
