With his current strength, not to mention the mere Luowang, even an entire nation's army would be powerless. Give Ying An a little time, and he could even destroy an entire nation single-handedly. With such immense power within himself, how could Ying An even consider a mere assassin organization like Luowang?
Of course, Ying An would not refuse Ying Zheng's kindness. After all, he knew very well how lonely Ying Zheng felt after knowing the future.
You know, after experiencing so many betrayals, the trust that Ying Zheng placed in Zhao Gao even surpassed that placed in many of his sons and heirs.
Just thinking about what Zhao Gao would do in the future, it is not difficult to understand how huge the blow Ying Zheng suffered this time! !
Even if it was just to appease Ying Zheng, Ying An would take over Luowang. Of course, he certainly wouldn't personally manage a killer organization. Don't forget, Ying An still has many talented people in this field under his command.
Yingge and Jingniu, the former was highly regarded by Ji Wuye and was in charge of the Six Nations branch of the Hundred Birds Organization, while the latter was originally from Luowang. The combination of the two was believed to be enough to make Luowang a powerful weapon in Ying An's hands.
Not long after, Ying An learned the news of Li Si's arrival.
What happened in the Xianyang Palace that night was kept secret by countless ministers in the court.
In fact, Ying Zheng's treatment of Zhao Gao was truly terrifying.
Not only were all three clans torn to pieces by chariots, but even Zhao Gao, who was brutally cut into pieces, howled in agony for three days outside the gate of Xianyang Palace.
It was also thanks to Zhao Gao's own strong strength and the support of powerful true energy. If it were an ordinary person, he would probably die from the horrific punishment of being cut into pieces on the first day.
It was a well-known fact that Ying Zheng trusted Zhao Gao, yet even Zhao Gao suffered such a fate. Who among the ministers, who did not know the true story, would dare to speak out?
It was precisely because of Zhao Gao's example that Ying Zheng's subsequent proposal to destroy Han and Zhao was passed with almost no opposition.
Chapter 148: Transforming Luowang! The Destruction of the Six Nations Begins!
After learning what happened in the court, Ying An immediately began to prepare for his trip to South Korea.
Although Qin's target this time was Han and Zhao, its plans for the two countries were different.
Han was weak, and Qin could quickly conquer it. They would use the previously agreed marriage as an excuse. After conquering Han in the shortest possible time, they would turn around and attack Zhao.
At the same time, King Ying Zheng of Qin and the civil and military officials in the court would not do nothing.
The strategy of making friends with distant countries and attacking nearby ones would be implemented before Ying An went to South Korea to pick up his bride.
He tried to win over Qi, Yan and Chu, and sent large amounts of gold, silver and jewelry to the top leaders of the three countries, at all costs to cut off the possibility of the three countries intervening.
But when it comes to Wei, Qin can only choose deterrence.
After the three states divided Jin, there were many disagreements among Zhao, Han and Wei, and even several wars broke out.
But on the issue of Qin, the three countries were surprisingly unanimous.
This also meant that once Qin wanted to take action against Zhao and Han, it would be impossible for Wei to win them over unless the King of Wei was a fool.
Even asking Wei to stand by and watch would be a very difficult task.
In this case, the only way to deal with the State of Wei is to rely on deterrence.
They dispatched a large army to threaten the border of Wei State, and acted as if Wei State intervened, the Qin State would turn around and fight three at once, including Wei State.
I believe that at that time, for its own safety, Wei's only choice would be to give spiritual support to Han and Zhao.
After destroying Zhao and Han, Qin's next target would be Wei.
This was obvious to all the knowledgeable people in the seven kingdoms. But Great Qin didn't mind. After all, in such a grand and majestic situation, what difference would it make if someone saw through their plan?
Could it be that Qi, Yan and Chu really dare to go to war with the current Qin?
How long had it been since the last coalition of the six nations? The might of Qin, a ferocious force, had already spread throughout the six states of Shandong. Frightened by the defeat, the six states had no confidence in facing Qin.
At this moment, he had no idea that the Qin State was about to choose to destroy him. King Han An still looked pained.
"Your Majesty! Qin is powerful. If our Han can sacrifice these three cities in exchange for peace, it will benefit all people. I believe that even the people of the three ceded cities will be grateful to you upon learning your painstaking efforts!"
A beautiful woman in a cherry pink long dress with a curvy figure and exquisite curves gently persuaded Han Wangan.
"Ah!" Han Wangan said with a look of sorrow, "I just didn't expect the Qin State to be so greedy. They just made the marriage agreement not long ago, but they are so eager to marry Honglian. I think the ferocious Qin State is just after those three cities. I wonder how that young master Ying An will treat Honglian after she marries him!"
Lady Hu was speechless. Although she and Liusha had collaborated more than once since Liusha's establishment, Liusha had now vanished into thin air.
Honglian even had her engagement finalized. Concubine Hu naturally began to feel at ease staying in the palace to serve King Han An.
As a refugee from the Baiyue, Concubine Hu was content with her current life, despite the advanced age of King Han An. Since becoming a concubine, Concubine Hu had lived alone in an empty house. But this was better than wandering the land of exile.
"Since Your Majesty is worried, why not pay more attention to Princess Honglian before she marries into the Qin State? After all, Princess Honglian sacrificed her life's happiness for the Kingdom of Han." Lady Hu sighed softly.
Han Wangan's face suddenly turned ugly.
Doesn't Honglian's sacrifice mean that he, as a king, is incompetent? He can't even protect his own daughter.
His mood instantly soured because of Lady Hu's words. Han Wangan snorted coldly, stood up and chose to leave.
"Your Majesty!" Lady Hu never expected that her unintentional words would touch upon the taboo in King Han'an's heart.
Seeing Han Wangan leaving, she didn't even dare to say a word to keep him.
After watching Han Wangan leave for a long time, Lady Hu sighed helplessly and sat down in front of the dressing table.
Facing the touching face in the bronze mirror, Lady Hu gently stroked her face and said, "What a pity. I'm afraid I will have to spend the rest of my life in this loneliness!"
Just as Lady Hu finished speaking, a sudden voice startled her.
"That's not necessarily true. Instead of feeling sorry for yourself, why not take the initiative and fight for it!!"
Lady Hu shuddered so hard she nearly knocked over her dresser. She turned warily in the direction of the voice, and when she saw who it was, her face suddenly became even more alert.
"It's you? Madam Mingzhu?"
In the palace of King Han, Lady Hu and Lady Mingzhu were like sworn enemies. After all, they were the two most favored women in the palace.
There was only one King An of Han, and in order to maintain his power, the two of them naturally became enemies.
"That's right!! It's me!" Madam Mingzhu smiled seductively and said, "Miss Hu, I've always thought you were a smart person. I believe you should have sensed it, right? South Korea is not far from destruction!"
Madam Mingzhu sighed softly.
Lady Hu frowned and said, "What do you want to do?"
"It's not me. It's us!!" Madam Mingzhu emphasized, then continued, "Han and King Han are no longer reliable. In these troubled times, women like us can only go with the flow. If we want to find peace for a night, we can only cling to a real tree like a vine. Since the Han tree is about to wither and fall, let us choose a new one that is still thriving!"
"You mean... Qin? You want to rebel against Han and join Qin?" Lady Hu widened her eyes, unable to believe what the master's wife said.
After all, they are Han Wangan's women! !
As long as South Korea existed, they had no autonomy at all.
In this situation, where is the opportunity to choose one's own position?
"It's just a matter of choosing the right tree for your roost!" Madam Mingzhu said nonchalantly, "Why? Do you really intend to accompany this incompetent King Han An and the corrupt Han Dynasty to their downfall?"
After calming herself down, Concubine Hu felt a great fear in her heart when she thought of the precarious life she and her sister would have to live after the fall of the Baiyue.
No!! No matter what, she couldn't fall into that situation again.
"You...what do you want to do?" Lady Hu didn't notice that her voice was trembling at this moment.
Madam Mingzhu smiled mysteriously and said, "Don't worry, I've found an opportunity to join the Qin Empire. I'm only trying to gain a more stable position in the Qin Empire, so I'm trying to win you over. I believe that if you and I join forces, we can live happily even in the Qin Empire!! All we have to do is the same as what we're doing now."
Compared to Madam Mingzhu's expectations for the future, Lady Hu was obviously a little reluctant.
After all, even the current life is a rare opportunity for Lady Hu. Choosing to join the Qin Dynasty is equivalent to choosing an unknown variable.
The existence of variables also means that the future is unpredictable. This is obviously not a good choice for Hu Meiren, who pursues stability.
But Lady Hu also knew that Han had indeed declined. Even Han Fei, the son of King An of Han and the only one who sincerely hoped to revitalize Han, had chosen to abandon his status and defect to the Qin Dynasty.
In such a situation, what chance does South Korea have?
It had already become the weakest of the seven nations. Now, because of Honglian's marriage, it had to cede three cities as a dowry. What would be left of South Korea then?
If she didn't pursue the unknown variables, it would mean that once Korea collapsed, she wouldn't know what would happen. However, instability was what Lady Hu was most unwilling to accept.
Seeing Madam Mingzhu's excited expression, Lady Hu sighed and said, "Have you contacted the Qin State yet?"
"That's right!" Madam Mingzhu nodded calmly and said, "If you want to meet them, I can give you a chance. I believe that you can't rest assured just by relying on what I'm telling you now!"
Lady Hu thought for a moment and nodded, "Okay! I want to meet someone from Qin!"
The moment Lady Hu finished speaking, a dark figure appeared out of nowhere and came into her sight.
Concubine Hu was startled by the sudden appearance of the man. After calming down, she quickly recognized the man in black as none other than General Ji Wuye's former subordinate. He had even antagonized Liusha many times!
"It's you!!" Lady Hu looked at Mo Ya in disbelief. After a long pause, she said in shock, "I never thought that even General Ji Wuye, who holds great military power in the Han State, would choose to defect to the Qin State?"
"Miss Hu, you misunderstood!" Mo Ya shook his head and said, "My current master is not Ji Wuye."
Frowning, Lady Hu said, "As I recall, you were under the command of General Ji Wuye. What's the matter? Now, not only have you betrayed Ji Wuye, but you've also betrayed Han?"
"Instead of being curious about my experience, I think Miss Hu should first consider what her future will be like." Mo Ya said with an evil smile on his face.
After sizing Lady Hu up and down, Mo Ya said, "Actually, compared to Madam Mingzhu, Lady Hu has a greater advantage in terms of joining the Qin Empire!"
"Me?" Lady Hu pointed at herself in disbelief, stunned. "How is this possible? I don't even know anyone from Qin!"
"She may not have once been a Qin person." Mo Ya did not reveal that Nanyue had become Ying An's concubine. Instead, he changed the subject and said, "Miss Hu, since you have chosen to betray Han and join the Qin, there will be no more opportunities for indecision. I hope you will think it over carefully!"
"Do I have any choice?" From the moment Mo Ya appeared, Lady Hu completely understood that Madam Mingzhu's appearance was probably premeditated.
"Very good!" Mo Ya nodded in satisfaction and said, "Since we've made all the preparations, I'll tell you some reassuring news. Even Princess Honglian has chosen Daqin!"
"I can't believe it. The first person to betray Han would be Han Wangan's most beloved daughter." Lady Hu laughed sarcastically and said, "What do you need me to do?"
"After the fall of Han, I hope you two can control King An of Han. It would be best if you could even control the entire Han Palace!! Wait for Qin to take over!! After the success, the prince will reward you according to your merits and will definitely not forget your contributions!!" Mo Ya said with a big promise.
"I..." Lady Hu showed an embarrassment and said, "I will do my best!!"
"Don't worry!!" Madam Mingzhu smiled charmingly and said, "As long as the two of us work together, it will be easy to control the Han Palace. As for Han Wangan..."
Bending her head and leaning close to Lady Hu's ear, Madam Mingzhu said, "From the moment I entered the palace, the so-called King of Han has been under my control!!"
Lady Hu's expression changed instantly.
Xianyang.
As the news spread that Ying An was about to go to Xinzheng, South Korea to marry.
Guests from various countries gradually began to come to Ying'an's mansion.
After all, this period is the most prosperous time for keeping retainers.
Unfortunately, Ying An had no good feelings towards these retainers, who were mostly opportunists. He handed the task of recruiting retainers directly to Li Si and his wife Dongjun.
He himself began to prepare in advance for the destruction of Han and Zhao.
In a relatively remote room.
Ying An embraced Jing Niu, who was sweating profusely and had an unusual blush on her pretty face. Their skin was touching, and it was clear they had just experienced a fierce battle that was unspeakable to outsiders.
Gently caressing Jingwei's soft skin, as if to soothe her emotions, Ying An leaned close to Jingwei's ear and asked, "How is Luo Wang now?"
"Reporting to the young master!!" As soon as Luowang was mentioned, Jingwei suddenly turned over, exposing his infinitely beautiful body to Ying An's sight.
Half-kneeling in front of Ying An, Jing Niu said, "The second purge has been completed. In addition to the numerous demons and monsters, a total of 167 killers of the Heaven-killing and Earth-killing level have been killed."
After a slight pause, Jingwei hesitated for a moment before continuing, "Right now, Luowang's strength has been completely weakened. Should we... should we recruit new members? Please give us your clear instructions, sir!"
Ying An waved his hand, signaling Jing Niu to come over. After embracing Jing Niu again, he said, "Don't worry. What's the situation with the Six Sword Slaves?"
"After learning of Zhao Gao's death, the six sword slaves have all chosen to pledge allegiance to you, young master." Jingwei answered cautiously.
Nodding, Ying An pondered for a moment before saying, "A killer organization like Luowang is ultimately not something that can be publicly recognized. However, we can still make a difference in terms of intelligence. Contact Mo Ya and Bai Feng in South Korea and merge the Hundred Birds Organization they control with Luowang! After the merger, focus on intelligence operations. Let's put assassinations aside for now!"
"Yes!" Jingwei nodded in agreement, then changed the subject, "Sir, when Prime Minister Lu was in charge of Luowang, he began sending assassins to kill Lord Xinling. However, each attempt failed. When Zhao Gao was in control of Luowang, his attempts to assassinate Lord Xinling were also unsuccessful. I wonder if the assassination attempts on Lord Xinling will continue?"
Ying An then remembered that because he had intercepted Jing Niu, Xinling Jun had actually survived until now.
Chapter 149: A Threat to Great Qin! Let Xinling Jun Die with Glory!
Without Ying An's extraordinary personal power, if anyone among the seven kingdoms could hinder Qin's plan to unify the world, it would undoubtedly be Lord Xinling.
Although Xinling Jun was viewed with vigilance and hostility by the King of Wei while in Wei, he enjoyed unparalleled prestige among the other five states in Shandong.
It is certain that once Xinling Jun makes a call and calls on the six states in Shandong to form an alliance again to fight against the Qin Dynasty, then a new round of alliance between the six states will really be possible.
It is no wonder that both Lü Buwei and Zhao Gao would tirelessly try to assassinate Lord Xinling. Truly, Lord Xinling's survival posed too great a threat to the Qin Dynasty.
Even if it was Ying An now, he couldn't help but frown when he heard the news that Xinling Jun was not dead and was still alive.
Sensing Ying An's dissatisfaction, Jing Niu shrank back in Ying An's arms and whispered, "If you wish for Lord Xinling to die, I will personally kill him at all costs!!"
Originally, Xinling Jun would have been caught off guard by Jingni's beauty trap and stabbed through the heart by Jingni from behind.
