Chapter 309
Qi Nian Palace.

King Qin and Han Fei sat opposite each other, holding sunspots in their hands, and slowly dropped them.With the fall of this piece, the situation on the chessboard has been settled.

"The king's chess moves are sophisticated, and I admire him."

Han Fei abandoned his son and conceded defeat, but King Qin smiled.

"Mister seems to be thinking about it, today's chess path has been erratic."

"I just smell blood in the air and I'm a little uneasy."

The two sides put the chess pieces together, King Qin seemed to be in high spirits, and started a new game with Han Fei.

"Mr. is a member of the Legalists. Naturally, he knows that the Legalists don't observe the good and evil of people's hearts, but only their actions. Whether loyal or treacherous ministers, what they think in their hearts is not important. If you don't see the opportunity, how can you see the good and the evil?"

King Qin dropped a piece, and the sound of the collision on the jade chessboard became clearer and clearer.

Han Fei felt a little uneasy.You know, Yongcheng is only tens of miles away from here. If there is a change, the enemy army may be able to arrive here in an hour.

"Kings!"

At this moment, Li Si hurried in, glanced at Han Fei, and cupped his hands.

"What's the matter?"

"Weichen just went to find Xiangbang and wanted to discuss with him about the ceremony, but found that Xiangbang was not there. I searched all over the palace, but couldn't find Xiangbang. Not only that, Wang Xi also disappeared."

At the ceremony, Lu Buwei, who was the prime minister, handed over the seal to the King of Qin, symbolizing the handover of the highest power in the Qin Dynasty, and also represented the end of the era of Lu Buwei's assistant government since the death of King Zhuangxiang of Qin.From then on, King Qin will personally take power and preside over state affairs.

Therefore, before the ceremony is about to start, Daqin Xiangbang will wait in the palace with Wang Xi.

"I am worried about the accident, so I came here to report."

Li Si's worried words did not attract Qin King's attention.Then, outside Qi Nian Palace, the sound of horns sounded, but this palace that was originally in order became a little panicked.

This means that the horn of the enemy's attack is sounded at this time, and everyone is aware of the danger.

"Kings!"

The chess in King Qin's hands did not stop, and Han Fei admired it. In such a dangerous situation, King Qin's chess moves became more and more stable.

King Qin didn't need to do anything, Wang Jian had already hurried in.

"Your Majesty, news has been sent from the outpost camp that Lai Ai is plotting rebellion. She brought along the imperial guards from the Li Palace and is less than ten miles away from the Qinian Palace. The rebel vanguard, the officers and cavalry, have already fought with the guards from the outpost camp."

"How many rebels are there?"

"There are roughly [-] people, and there are even county guards from several nearby counties, but according to my opinion, since the rebel Lao Ai dares to plot rebellion, I am afraid there will be a steady stream of troops coming."

"According to the general, what should we do?"

"There are still [-] guards in Qinian Palace. If we leave here, I am afraid that we will be surrounded by rebels. It is better to shrink our troops and guard the palace, and then order the generals from all over the country to serve the king. The fiefs of Lord Changping and Lord Changwen are not far from here. , so that they can quickly return to the fief and bring troops to help."

"According to the general's opinion, go down and organize the defense!"

"The last general respects the king's order!"

At this time, Lord Changping and Lord Changwen had already been waiting outside the palace, and under the cover of the guards, they hurriedly left the palace under the order of the King of Qin.

Zhao Gao led the people into the palace, and when he saw King Qin, he gave a slight salute.

"Your Majesty, at such a critical juncture, why did you not see Mr. Ge Nie?"

There was something wrong with Zhao Gao's tone, and Li Si, who was standing aside, frowned slightly.At this time, there were not many people in the palace, Li Si turned his head, glanced at the servant following Zhao Gao, saw his eyes were fierce, and thought it was not good.

"Your Majesty, be careful!"

"Ying Zheng, die!"

A dozen or so servants behind Zhao Gao drew their hidden daggers, intending to assassinate him.

Facing the imminent danger, Han Fei raised his eyebrows, but the king of Qin in front of him seemed to be unknown, still playing chess.

Out of intuition, Han Fei did not dodge and continued to play against King Qin.

Li Si was about to rescue him, he wanted to stop the assassins, but in an instant, the dozen or so assassins had fallen down.

And it was Zhao Gao and his men who made the move.

Their methods are clean and neat, and they don't even stain the floors in the palace.

"Zhao Gao, you betrayed us?"

The only remaining assassin looked at Zhao Gao with resentful eyes.

"Zhao Gao is the king's servant, and the snare is also a weapon in the king's hands. I am just cleaning up the rebels!"

As a large number of guards rushed over, Li Si breathed a sigh of relief.The thrilling scene just now really made Li Si a little frightened.

Zhao Gao turned to King Qin and saluted slowly.

"I didn't prevent the rebellion from causing chaos in the palace. The servants dared to gather them and eliminate them together. If they disturb the king, please forgive me."

"It's okay!"

Zhao Gao glanced at Han Fei, and after leading his men to clean up the corpses in the palace, he stood guard in front of the palace gate.

"Sir, you are so determined!"

King Qin looked at Han Fei. Not everyone could maintain such a precarious situation just now.

"I was just betting that the king would win. Fortunately, I didn't lose."

King Qin laughed out loud, as if it was because of Han Fei's calm demeanor in a dangerous situation.Looking at this picture, Li Si felt a little uncomfortable.

"Forget it! I'm tired, you go down and rest first!"

"promise!"

Li Si and Han Fei retreated, and the door slowly closed.In the empty palace, only King Qin was left.

"Xiangbang is old after all!"

A leisurely word, with a bit of sigh.

The post station at the foot of the mountain is the place where Zhao Shuang is temporarily stationed.

"My lord, Lai Ai has rebelled."

When Bai Feng returned with the information, Zhao Shuang was preparing to eat.

"So soon?"

The timing of Lao Ai's rebellion was one day earlier than Zhao Shuang expected. It seems that he must have some bargaining chip in his hand, which is why he is so impatient.

"When I arrived, I found thousands of soldiers and horses under Doctor Zhong Lingqi had already arrived here."

"This station is not good for holding. Since they have come, it is better to ambush and disrupt the enemy's formation."

Zhao Shuang had been prepared for a long time. The reason why he stationed in this post station was because of the convenient transportation here.He had already chosen the location of the ambush.

Zhao Shuang smiled, Moon God and Concubine Yan walked out and stood by his side.

"Baifeng, go and clean up all the snares nearby."

"promise!"

Zhao Shuang's guards who were originally stationed in this inn, after receiving the order, retreated one after another. Under the leadership of the hundred generals, they sneaked into the mountain forest along the path, and soon disappeared without a trace.

Zhao Shuang sat there, still eating slowly, until he finished the last sip of soup, and then slowly stood up, which made Concubine Yan and Moon God very dissatisfied.

"Have you finally had enough, Your Majesty?"

Zhao Shuang patted his belly, held the hands of the two sisters, and said.

"go!"

Moon God and Concubine Yan wanted to refuse, but when Zhao Shuang's hand came over, they could have easily avoided them, but they chose to stop where they were, let Zhao Shuang pull them, and walked out.
