The more Jing Ke thought about it, the more he felt that the situation was extremely serious and terrifying, he immediately packed up his things and saluted from inside, then bowed slightly towards Pang Wen and said, "General Pang, this matter is of great importance, if anything changes at the Corridor, then this plan of rejecting the Qin will definitely fail, and Jing Ke will have to return to the Corridor. If General Sima is here, please tell him that Handan's crisis has been resolved, and I am afraid there will be a change in the Corridor, so I ask that he return to the army as soon as possible. "

"Alright, this old man will remember." Pang Wen immediately nodded his head, then hurriedly bowed to Jing Ke. When he raised his head again, Jing Ke had already left the room.

Then, he heard a voice from the next room: "Alliance Head, what is so urgent? Can't we rest for the night before leaving? "How many steps back and forth have I travelled ?" "Senior, please forgive me for this urgent matter. If I don't return as soon as possible, I'm afraid that an unforeseen event might happen at the Corridor Pass. It would be too late then." "Forget it, forget it ?"

"Is everything done?" At this moment, one of the people from the Deep Black Ink Pavilion reported to him in a low and deep voice. This person was the pavilion master of the Dark Abyss Palace, also known as the Qin Nation's Imperial Advisor, Xu Fu. At the moment, he was seated on the throne of one of the most powerful figures in the world. His expression was tranquil and indifferent, and in his hand, he was gently stroking a snow-white carrier pigeon.

"According to your plan, son, we have successfully transferred the Pi Jian Alliance out of the Corridor, Sima Shang is now on his way to Handan, and the plot has already followed the advice of Free and Unrestrained Man and attacked Handan, only that they were defeated and almost completely annihilated." One of the servants in the hall was respectfully reporting everything that had happened in Handan to Tai Han, and this person had been forbidding. He had hastily used the excuse of "the entire army having been annihilated" as the reason for the massacre, but he did not mention the details that were related to him.

"Tell Xin Xin and Xiao San that they did well. I will give them the antidote for the 'Longevity Pill' on time." Tai Hu's expression was still indifferent as he ordered Yun Ji.

"Yes, I will listen to your orders, Honorable Great Sage." "Yes!" Yue Ji immediately complied, bowing with his hands.

"Go and call Fan Jie in." Tai Hou only continued to caress a white feather carrier pigeon in his hand, glanced at Yun Ji, and continued to speak.

"Yes." Promises not to listen to too much instruction, immediately saluted and left.

A moment later, a person swiftly entered the room. His footsteps were light and gentle, and he did not dare make any sound, lest he alarm the other party. He waited until he was seated at the bottom of the pedestal before raising his hand and bowing, "May I ask what your esteemed son wishes to request of me?"

"Hall Master Fan, the reason I've called you here this time is because I have something for you to do." When Tai Pao saw Fan Jie, he sat up and spoke to him seriously.

"Great Master, if you have anything you need, just say it. This subordinate will definitely go through fire and water, and will not refuse." When Fan Jie heard that Tai Lao had given him such serious orders, he immediately felt that it was no small matter and immediately expressed his thoughts.

Taihang chuckled and said: "Pavilion Master Fan, this matter isn't as serious as you think. I just want you to capture someone."

"Who?" Please enlighten me. " Upon hearing that he was going to arrest someone, Fan Jie's heart skipped a beat. He was worried because he knew that those people who were going to be captured were going to be very troublesome.

"This person has a great grudge against your father. I have promised you that as long as you can invite him out of the mountain, I will avenge your father. Now is your father's time to take revenge." Taipu had a lewd smile on his face as he carefully looked at Taipu as he spoke at a casual pace.

When Fan Jie heard this, his mind ran in circles for a few times before he finally made a somewhat uncertain guess: "Are you talking about Wei Qi, the Prime Minister of the State of Wei?" As he spoke up to this point, he seemed slightly worried and said, "Although Wei Qi is my father's nemesis, it's true that he has the power and authority of a nation, and is heavily guarded. I'm afraid he won't be easy to deal with."

The corner of Tai Hu's mouth slightly curled as he said, "It's naturally not easy to harm Wei Qi. However, right now, he has a doctor by his side called Xu Jia, who is his trusted aide. It'll be much easier to start with him."

When Fan Jie heard this, he immediately clasped his fists and said, "I am willing to listen to your brilliant plan."

"Jia Qi is rich and good. He isn't like Wei Qi, who is always inside a tightly guarded mansion or palace. This person frequently visits the biggest restaurant in the Wei Kingdom. "You only need to bring a group of people to ambush him in the Everlasting Workshop as a wine man. When that time comes, as long as Jia Lie Wu goes there to crave wine, he will be able to easily capture him." Taihang was still speaking neither fast nor slow, but there was an indescribable coldness to his words.

"Your subordinate is wise, your subordinate will follow your plan!" When Fan Jie heard this, he was overjoyed. However, in the midst of his happiness, he did not forget to ask for directions, "However, if you capture Xujia, where should you go? Please instruct me."

Grand Preceptor Xie grinned. He took out an order from his chest pocket and said to Fan Jie: "I have a detailed plan. You can take it and follow it."

Fan Jie received the secret order from Tai Lao with both hands and immediately nodded. "Yes." After getting the order, he carefully hid it in his pocket, as if he still had something to ask.

Unexpectedly, Tai Jun had already known what he was going to ask. With a calm voice, he said, "Don't worry. Once this matter is settled, Wei Qi will definitely obtain what you want. From now on, you don't have to worry about your father taking his revenge anymore."

Upon hearing these words, Fan Jie was relieved of the doubt in his heart. He immediately kowtowed and thanked him. "Thank you very much, your excellency."

"No need to thank me. This was something that you should have done. As long as you are loyal to this sovereign's work, in the future, you will be able to enjoy endless wealth and honor." Once this matter is over, this noble one will promote you to be one of my husband's four great protectors, taking the place of the Southern Phoenix Sect and commanding the disciples of the South Phoenix Sect. " He let out a loud laugh as he said this, intentionally or unintentionally.

"Please rest assured, sir. This subordinate will do everything in my power to ensure that I will live up to your expectations." Having received such a promise, Fan Jie was overjoyed and immediately kowtowed as he spoke.

"Yes." Fan Xian understood the meaning of the word 'move' and retreated with light steps.

After Fan Jie left, Tai Jun stroked the white pigeon in his hand with a proud expression as he muttered to himself, "The Six Kingdoms are united. The Sword Arts Alliance, I, and even old foxes like Reese can keep a low profile. Since you little foxes dare to show off here, no wonder I turned you into ashes in an instant." With that, he extended his hand and the pigeon used the strength of his breath to soar into the sky. After flapping its wings a few times, it flew out of the hall.

Looking at the white pigeons flying away, Tai Hou's smug expression intensified. He couldn't help but burst out laughing in an arrogant manner. He rushed out from the inner hall of the Black Residence, causing the roof tiles and trees to rustle.

He believed that he had survived the perilous situation outside Oak Sun City. From then on, he treated Taikou and Zhao Gaofeng as close as his trusted aides. As long as they were around, he would bring them along with him. As for Reese, he was stripped of his post as prime minister by Ying Zheng because he couldn't protect the emperor in Oak Sun City. He became depressed and stayed in the Li Mansion all day, constantly evading court affairs under the pretext of calling him sick. Wang Jian, the great general who had been guarding Xianyang, was shocked when he heard that Ying Zheng had returned to Xianyang City. Although he and Reese had never been on good terms, Ying Zheng had allowed a eunuch to hold the post of prime minister as well as a scholar. This made him, a hot-blooded general, rather unhappy. Most of the officials were also disapproving of this matter, but due to the low position of their officials, if they tried to dissuade him, there would be a fatal disaster. Therefore, all of them invited Wang Ba to represent them, after all, Wang Jian was an illustrious war veteran and was a family of generals, even if Ying Zheng was angry with him, he would not take his life in anger.

"Reporting to the king, the great general, Wang Jian, is waiting outside the palace. He says he has an important matter to speak to you about." Early in the morning, when Ying Zheng was about to practice some life-saving methods with Taihu, a eunuch came to report.

However, since Wang Jian had come to meet him in person, it was not good for him to refuse, so he asked Zhao Gao, who was standing beside him, and said, "Zhao Gao, go think of a way to help the Oligarchs get rid of Wang Ba."

"Ahem." Hearing the two words "Wang Jian", Zhao Gao suddenly coughed and said to Ying Zheng, "Reporting to your majesty, Zhao Gao felt chills last night and is now in a bad condition. I am afraid that I will be unable to serve your majesty. Please punish him."

When Ying Zheng heard that Zhao Gao was not feeling well, he immediately smiled and said, "Prime Minister Zhao is not feeling well at all. To be able to meet with an outsider is already enough to show your loyalty. How can an outsider punish you? How about this, you first return to the hall to rest, and then the widows will order royal doctors to treat you. "

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Zhao Gao kowtowed to Ying Zheng in a hoarse voice, coughed a few times and then stepped back.

After Zhao Gao had retreated, Ying Zheng looked at Tai Hu with a regretful expression, "State Grandmaster, it seems that I have to meet Wang Jian today. I have only disturbed the elegant interests of the State Grandmaster. Please forgive me."

Tai Hou bowed slightly towards Ying Zheng, pretending to be profound, and said, "Your highness cares deeply about the future of a country. To respect your highness so much today shows that your highness is a holy lord who possesses both virtue and talent. This is the most precious part of a cultivator."

When Ying Zheng heard Tai Lao praise him, he couldn't help but feel elated. He laughed out loud and said, "Imperial Advisor, you really know how to speak. With Imperial Advisors often praying for the oligarchs in front of them, it would be hard for them to not become Dao cultivators. It seems like the title of Xu Fu that the widow has bestowed upon you is not excessive at all. "

"Your Majesty, you praise me too highly. Xu Fu naturally will not be able to thank you enough for receiving Your Majesty's Holy Pet." He looked flattered, and he was the only one who knew how to act.

Seeing how respectful Wang Jian was, Ying Zheng couldn't help but ask with interest, "State Grandmaster, I'm sure you have the power to predict future events. Why don't you ask State Grandmaster here for a moment? Why did you come here to see Wang Jian?"

Tai Hou frowned and pretended to ponder. "Of course, prophet Xu Fu doesn't dare to presume to preach. But since Your Majesty has asked, I dare to agree to it." He then slightly closed his eyes and pinched the lines between his forefinger and middle finger with his thumb while murmuring an incantation. Then, he opened his eyes and said to Ying Zheng, "I think General Wang must be here to appoint Zhao Gao and this humble official in order for His Majesty to dismiss Reese from his post."

"Oh? If that's the case, then how does the Imperial Advisor think the oligarchs should respond? " Hearing Taihang's words, Ying Zheng indeed felt that he had hit the mark and immediately asked about how to deal with it.

"The truth is that the reason why General Wang is puzzled by the King's actions is that he does not understand Prime Minister Zhao's and this humble official's ability and loyalty. The King can once again lead Prime Minister Zhao and this humble official to lead the army and retreat from the Six Nations. General Wang and the other officials are probably speechless." He bent over and calmly played the melody.

Although Ying Zheng felt that this method was quite good, he still felt a little worried and said, "What the State Grandmaster said makes sense. However, the six armies are fierce and fierce. Last time, they almost lost their lives. If we go again ?"

"Don't worry, your highness. Xu Fu has already made a divination, and the great dragon god is about to descend. This time, the great dragon god will take the lead and the king won't even need to show his face, so the great dragon god can just let the six armies of the Corridor Pass break down and retreat on their own."

"Oh, is that true?" Ying Zheng was overjoyed upon hearing this, and asked with great curiosity.

"Whether it is true or not, the king will know after a try. This humble subject has never dared to deceive His Majesty. When General Wang comes to ask questions later, everything will be seen. " Tai Hou lifted up his horsetail whisk, pretending that he had seen through everything, making Ying Zheng feel even more convinced.

"Alright, if everything goes as you expected, I will do as you say and lead you and Zhao Gao to another personal battle." Ying Zheng smiled and said with great delight.

"Yes, this humble subject shall take his leave first." Taihu knew that Ying Zheng had already fallen into his own territory, and since he had already accomplished the great task, he immediately bowed and left.

Ying Zheng slightly nodded, then indicated that it was too late.

However, just as he was about to leave the hall, he dashed towards the porch. As he reached out with his left hand, a person was brought out from the porch. He sniggered and purposely said, "Prime Minister Zhao really has to deal with everything everyday. You're already feeling well, yet you're still thinking about the matter between His Majesty and this reputed one."

The person who had been dragged out of the hall by Tai Po was indeed Zhao Gao. After saying that he had received Ying Zheng's permission to leave, Zhao Gao had been hiding outside the hall, eavesdropping on their conversation. However, what kind of person was this? Not to mention a eunuch like Zhao Gao who didn't have any martial arts skills, even a wandering martial arts expert would find it difficult to hide in the dark and eavesdrop on the secrets.

"Hmph, just who are you? How dare you lie in front of His Majesty and deceive him?" Since Zhao Gao had been caught by Tai Hou, he did not panic. Instead, he shouted at Tai Hou.
