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

Ying Zheng did not delay for long regarding Zhao Ji's matter.

He was always the one and only Ying Zheng.

In other words, Zhao Ji and Ying Jing secured a place in the rankings due to childhood nostalgia and their social status.

Even so, it's not worth spending too much time on the great cause he's pursuing.

"Third brother, let me introduce you. This is Gai Nie, a disciple of Guigu. I have mentioned him to you in my letters before."

Zhao Ji did not write any letters, but Ying Jing did.

It can only be said that Ying Zheng truly did not want to waste a single spare moment.

As Ying Zheng introduced him, Ying Jing's gaze once again fell upon the white-clad swordsman standing to the side.

His sharp edge was fully revealed; standing there, he resembled a sword.

Even though he is still young, Gai Nie's swordsmanship is already extraordinary.

“Guigu Gai Nie greets Lord Changxin.”

Gai Nie had a cold and expressionless face. The young man did not yet know how to conceal his sharpness, but he still bowed to Ying Jing first.

Ying Jing smiled and said, "When he is angry, the feudal lords tremble; when he is at peace, the world is calmed. I have long heard of the great name of Guigu, and today I have met him. He is indeed extraordinary."

Compared to Gai Nie's martial prowess, Ying Jing was actually more concerned about his identity.

Young Gai Nie seemed a bit shy, and immediately felt embarrassed upon hearing Ying Jing's words.

A hint of embarrassment appeared on his face: "Lord Changxin, you flatter me. Gai Nie dares not compare himself to his predecessors."

The reputation of the disciples of Guigu Valley is quite renowned throughout the seven kingdoms of the world.

In the past, Su Qin wore the seals of the prime ministers of six states and formed an alliance to attack Qin, preventing Qin from sending troops out of Hangu Pass for fifteen years. Zhang Yi used the strategy of horizontal alliance to divide the six states, and made great contributions to the rise of Qin.

Pang Juan and Sun Bin's battle of wits and courage left behind a legendary tale on the battlefield.

When he is angry, the feudal lords tremble; when he lives in peace, the world is at peace.

This is the reputation earned by generations of disciples of Guigu School.

Unfortunately... it seems that the two disciples of Guigu have misplaced their skill points in this generation.

Whether it's Gai Nie, who is now by Ying Zheng's side, or Wei Zhuang, who is far away in Han... they have all become swordsmen!

Otherwise, given Ying Zheng's magnanimity, how could he have allowed Gai Nie, who had served him early on, to remain by his side as a court swordsman?

However, in Ying Jing's view, this might be the wisdom of the previous generation of Guiguzi.

While the strategy of alliances and counter-alliances is ingenious, it no longer has the fertile ground to survive on this land that is about to be unified.

Only by transforming the Guigu tradition into the blood-splattering sword of a commoner can it be better passed down.

“Mr. Gai Nie’s swordsmanship is superb, and his views on the world situation are the same as my third brother’s. I think we will have some common ground.”

Ying Zheng clearly noticed Gai Nie's embarrassment and spoke up to help him out.

"Oh? Mr. Gai Nie also believes that the world will eventually belong to Qin?"

Ying Jing wasn't surprised by Gai Nie's idea.

After all, he was also a disciple of Guigu, and even though he focused on swordsmanship, he did not completely abandon other skills.

"The people are in turmoil, and the world is in chaos. Only by ending this chaotic world can we stop the fighting."

Gai Nie's expression was cold and stern; this was the reason he chose to enter Qin.

The wars that have raged on this land for centuries have brought immense suffering to the people, and it is time for them to end.

Looking at the seven kingdoms of the world.

Only the Qin state, which once single-handedly resisted the alliance of the six states, had the ability to achieve unification.

At the same time, only the king of Qin was not incompetent; the other states were already corrupt and decadent.

Only the Qin state had the potential to unify the world and bring peace.

Gai Nie's words are consistent with his character. He came to Qin not for high office or wealth, nor even to realize his ambitions.

He simply wanted to stay by the King of Qin's side and see if peace could be achieved in the world.

Ying Jing suddenly turned to look at Ying Zheng, already realizing what was happening.

What Gai Nie hoped to see was exactly what Ying Zheng hoped to see.

Ying Zheng suddenly summoned him back from Henan and introduced Gai Nie, a disciple of Guigu, to the world's affairs.

Obviously... this was not a baseless claim.

"Brother Wang, are you... preparing to begin?"

Ying Jing hesitated for a moment, then finally asked the question.

Ying Zheng's expression remained calm throughout, which, combined with his black robe, made him appear even more profound.

He did not answer Ying Jing's question immediately.

He simply sat behind his desk, moved all the memorials on it aside, and revealed a map.

What is depicted above is the world today!

Staring at the map, Ying Zheng's gaze swept across the vast lands beyond the Qin state.

His eyes, as deep as a moonlit spring, seemed to be blazing with fierce flames, and his aura seemed to have undergone a complete transformation.

Ying Zheng did not deny it!

“Years ago, when I escaped from Zhao back to Qin after narrowly escaping death, you, my third brother, once told me…”

"I was born by the mandate of Heaven, inheriting the legacy of six generations of the Qin state, and am destined to unify the world, establish an unprecedentedly great empire, and bring lasting peace to the people of this world."

"For this goal, from the day I ascended the throne until now, for more than three thousand two hundred days and nights, I have never dared to slacken in the slightest,"

Ying Zheng's voice was not loud, but it was extremely penetrating and infectious, reaching straight to the heart.

He kept staring at the map in front of him, his face even more stern than Gai Nie standing beside him, and the flames burning in his eyes seemed even stronger.

“Third brother, you planted this great cause in my heart in the past.”

"Now that our great undertaking is about to begin, are you willing to join me in creating this dream of an everlasting empire?"

Ying Zheng spoke slowly, finally shifting his gaze from the map.

His deep eyes gazed at Ying Jing, as if filled with expectation.

At the same time, she gently raised one hand.

Ying Jing hadn't expected that his casual remark back then would be so deeply etched in Ying Zheng's memory.

The boomerang thrown more than a decade ago hit his future self many years later.

At this moment, Ying Jing had no other thoughts.

Even Ying Jing was moved by Ying Zheng's magnificent imperial aura at that moment.

Without any hesitation, Ying Jing immediately stepped forward.

He raised one hand and shook hands with Ying Zheng.

“The king’s dream is also the dream of his younger brother.”

"I wish to join my brother in creating this eternal kingdom!"

At this moment, everything Ying Jing said came from the bottom of his heart.

Perhaps this is the personal charisma of Ying Zheng as a king.

Ying Zheng was unique in heaven and earth.

In the study of Zhangtai Palace.

The two brothers clasped hands tightly together.

The brief exchange between the two had an impact on the entire world and even on future generations.

The white-clad swordsman, Gai Nie, stood to one side, a hint of expectation appearing in his dark eyes.

He witnessed this moment that was destined to be recorded in history.

Wow!

The black dragon robe on Ying Zheng's body fluttered under the fierce aura.
