Qin Dynasty: Starting with clinging to Zhao Ji's thigh

Chapter 145 Ji Wuye's Gift

Deadly, turning to withered bones; congealed blood staining white robes.

Dry bones reflect silver armor, blood-stained robes stand tall like marquises.

According to the intelligence of the Luo Wang (a Chinese intelligence network), Bai Yifei was once a handsome young man in white robes, a young general from a prominent family.

But when the Baiyue "rebellion" broke out, Bai Yifei led his army to suppress it. His white clothes turned into blood-stained clothes, his skin became paler and his temperament became colder.

His true rise to power began around that time, when he not only commanded a loyal White Armor Army, but his martial arts skills also became increasingly unfathomable.

With his 100,000-strong White Armor Army under his command, which was almost entirely under his control, Bai Yifei was undoubtedly one of the most powerful figures in South Korea.

Moreover, Bai Yifei also holds a noble title. In terms of status and power, he is not much inferior to Ji Wuye.

The return of such a powerful figure to Xinzheng signifies a new shift in the overall situation in South Korea.

"South Korea has been plagued by troubles ever since..."

Han Fei's expression was somewhat solemn, and he couldn't help but let out a soft sigh.

I returned to South Korea full of ambition, but I accomplished nothing. Now the situation seems to be getting more and more difficult and complicated.

"If you've already had thoughts of giving up, then you can give up now."

Wei Zhuang had arrived at the window at some point.

He gazed at the silver-armored army below and Bai Yifei, who stood in front of him with an indifferent expression, though his heart was far from calm.

During this time, he had become quite familiar with Han Fei, and was attracted by his personal charm and moved by the future he described.

But reality is what it is: even someone like Han Fei repeatedly encountered setbacks in South Korea.

The conflict within the Guigu School is not merely a contest of martial arts; how could someone like Han possibly defeat Gai Nie?

"Brother Wei Zhuang, you can rest assured. Han Fei's original intention will not change, and his goal will not be altered."

Han Fei gave a wry smile, but a resolute glint flashed in his eyes.

He had witnessed his own death and had long anticipated his final fate, but even though the outcome was already decided, he was willing to be the moth drawn to the flame.

There will always be people in this world who are willing to die for their ideals.

Wei Zhuang nodded in satisfaction, a determined look flashing in his eyes as well.

"Your repeated failures have proven that your methods are not working. Now, I will help you in my own way."

Seeing that the two seemed to have regained their fighting spirit, Ying Jing didn't care. He just glanced at Zi Nu and Nong Yu, who seemed indifferent to everything.

Well, as long as they don't get involved unnecessarily, it'll be fine.

Wei Zhuang and Han Fei are both restless people anyway, let them do whatever they want!

……

Just as Ying Jing and Han Fei had discussed, Gongsun Li and Gongsun Linglong were not imprisoned for too long.

He was released in less than a day, and it was Han Wang An who personally gave the order.

Gongsun Long was also addressed as "Zi". While King Han An might not care about important matters, he would still give him some face in these minor matters.

After all, the reason why Gongsun Linglong and Gongsun Li were arrested was quite far-fetched—fighting for a mask with Princess Honglian on the street?

Han Wang An felt that Hong Lian was being too reckless, and he couldn't bear the embarrassment!

The inn, in the pavilion within the courtyard.

Nongyu was sitting in Yingjing's lap, the two of them playing the zither together, their faces beaming with smiles.

Da da da……

Yan Lingji's footsteps approached, her slender crystal heels clicking crisply on the bluestone pavement.

"King Han An has sent someone to invite the master to the palace tomorrow to discuss compensation."

With her red lips slightly parted, Yan Lingji stood gracefully to the side, her bright, beautiful eyes darting between Ying Jing and Nong Yu.

Knowing Ying Jing's true nature all along, she didn't make a fuss about keeping Nongyu around.

Even so, seeing Nongyu so relaxed and carefree playing the zither with Ying Jing, Yan Lingji couldn't help but feel a little resentful.

She was tasked with handling the sycophantic visits from high-ranking Korean officials and nobles, as well as the intelligence sent by the Luo Wang (a secret intelligence network), and then she indulged in refined pursuits with Nong Yu!

That scoundrel of a man is inhuman!

Fortunately, although Ying Jing made Yan Lingji do a lot more work, this also showed his trust in her.

Moreover, Nongyu's temperament is peaceful and tranquil, and she doesn't fight or compete, which is why Yanlingji didn't cause a scene.

Ying Jing didn't care about Yan Lingji's little mood.

King Han invited him to the palace, which was a major event.

Ying Jing's purpose in coming to Korea this time was to use the Zheng Guoqu and Cheng Jiao incident as an excuse to take a big bite out of Korea.

However, King An of Han was deliberately stalling for time, and King Ying Jing was also happy to plant more spies in Han, which is why they tacitly kept quiet about the matter.

Now, King Han An's sudden invitation to Ying Jing to enter the palace, contrary to usual practice, seems rather unusual.

Thinking of this, Ying Jing's brows furrowed deeply.

"Have Zhang Kaidi and Ji Wuye made any moves lately?"

Ying Jing hasn't worked for nothing these past few years.

Whether it's Ji Wuye's or Zhang Kaidi's residence, or even the Han King's palace, Luo Wang has spies everywhere.

If King Han An were to make a decision, he would certainly need to discuss it with these two people beforehand.

"No, there's nothing unusual at the Prime Minister's residence, and as for the General's residence..."

Yan Lingji's expression suddenly became somewhat strange: "Ji Wuye has recalled a Hundred Birds Assassin who has been active in other countries for many years."

Ying Jing couldn't quite understand why an assassin was worth mentioning separately.

"Is this assassin special?"

Yan Lingji blinked, her big eyes fixed on Ying Jing's face: "A female assassin, and very beautiful at that. Is that considered special?"

Ying Jing: "..."

What kind of person do they think Jing Dashan is?

He already has a female assassin, and she's even had a child with him.

No shortage!

“We’ve investigated. This female assassin is called Yingge. She’s indeed quite extraordinary. She has a very good relationship with Moya and Baifeng, the two leaders of the Hundred Birds.”

"If Master can win her over, he might be able to get an assassin organization for free."

Yan Lingji chuckled softly.

She learned the term "freebie" from Jing Dashanren!

"It's not necessary!"

A hundred birds are no match for a net, and it's not worth Lord Changxin sacrificing himself for.

Sudden--

"Your Majesty, Ji Wuye has come to visit, saying he has brought you a gift."

Zhen Gang did not approach Ying Jing and the others, but only reported from a distance via telepathy.

"Ji Wuye?"

Ying Jing was somewhat surprised.

He and Ji Wuye had always cooperated, but after coming to South Korea, they didn't become very close.

Mainly because of his status, it's impossible to get too close; otherwise, King Han An wouldn't be able to sleep.

After a while.

Looking at the woman in white standing next to Ji Wuye, Ying Jing sighed softly.

This gift is a bit too much.

Ji Wuye didn't just send a woman; he clearly bundled up all the birds with her.
