Chapter 490: Chapter 208: Displaying Martial Arts Before My Sons! The Great King Is in Danger! (Part 2)
At this moment, Jing Ke was a bit at a loss, hurriedly stepping forward to help Yan Dan up.
"Crown Prince, what are you doing?"
"If there’s something to say, let’s talk it over." Jing Ke said in a deep voice.
But Yan Dan stubbornly knelt on the ground.
"Please, sir, save my state of Yan." Yan Dan’s tone was low, carrying a kind of deep-seated desperation and unwillingness.
Upon hearing this.
Jing Ke was somewhat baffled: "I don’t understand what the Crown Prince is saying, isn’t the state of Yan fine? Why talk about saving it?"
"Though the state of Yan exists now, it may not exist for long." Yan Dan raised his head, his eyes filled with intense sorrow.
It must be said.
This Yan Dan was quite a dramatic character, if Zhao Feng saw this scene, he would praise him as an actor.
As a Crown Prince of a country.
Such a loss of composure, such humility, kneeling in front of a commoner.
One can imagine the shock Jing Ke received.
Perhaps.
As a saying from the future goes, "a scholar dies for his confidant."
This Yan Dan indeed had some methods.
"Why?" Jing Ke looked at Yan Dan in confusion.
Unknowingly.
This Jing Ke had completely fallen into Yan Dan’s trap.
"Qin."
Yan Dan gritted his teeth, his eyes filled with resentment and unwillingness.
"The King of Qin is brutal and covetous of the world, inciting countless wars."
"Now the three countries of Zhao, Wei, and Han have already been conquered by the Qin Army."
"In the world, apart from the Qin, only three countries remain, and among these, the national power of my state of Yan is the weakest."
"With the King of Qin’s brutal actions, he will certainly wage war on my state of Yan, and on that day, my state of Yan will become a scorched earth, no longer to exist."
"The nearly ten million citizens of Yan will be controlled by the Qin Army, life worse than death."
Yan Dan gritted his teeth, further speaking with an incredibly compassionate tone.
Looking at Yan Dan’s strenuous performance, the expression of Jing Ke in front of him also changed accordingly.
"Crown Prince."
"Even if what you say is true, and the Qin are really going to wage war on Yan."
"But Jing Ke is just an ordinary person, after all, just one man, Jing Ke cannot change Qin."
"So Crown Prince, it would be better to stand up first."
Jing Ke sighed and once again went to assist Yan Dan.
"No."
But Yan Dan shook his head, still kneeling before Jing Ke.
Especially looking at Jing Ke with eyes full of fervor and trust.
"Under the heavens, only you, sir, can save my state of Yan." Yan Dan said with great determination.
"How can I save it?" Jing Ke asked, baffled.
If not for seeing Yan Dan’s serious demeanor, he would have thought Yan Dan was joking with him.
"The Qin state’s warmongering actions are all because of King Zheng of Qin, if King Zheng were to die."
"Then my state of Yan could survive."
"As long as he is dead, the world will be at peace."
"Only with his death, can the people of the world lead a good life." Yan Dan said filled with murderous intent.
"The King of Qin is heavily guarded, wanting to kill him, how can it be easy?" Jing Ke shook his head.
Looking at Jing Ke like this.
Yan Dan felt a joy in his heart.
He understood, the man in front of him had been persuaded by him.
"Sir."
"If you have the ability to protect my state of Yan from perishing, to protect its nearly ten million citizens, would you be willing to do it?" Yan Dan stood up, tightly grasping Jing Ke’s hands.
He immediately came with a righteous stance, using righteousness to bind Jing Ke.
If in later generations, this would be considered moral coercion.
Feeling Yan Dan’s fervent gaze.
And the sincerity shown when kneeling just now, Jing Ke sighed in his heart, and then said: "If I can do it, save the millions of people of Yan from the ravages of war, one man’s death, would be just."
"Great Righteousness, Sir."
"Yan Dan, pays respect."
Yan Dan solemnly bowed to Jing Ke.
"Crown Prince."
"Though I can sacrifice myself for righteousness, how can I get close to the King of Qin?"
"The Qin Royal Palace must be heavily guarded, there’s no way to sneak in." Jing Ke said again.
"Please, rest assured, sir."
"I already have a foolproof plan to ensure you can approach the King of Qin." Yan Dan immediately promised.
Jing Ke nodded.
Unknowingly.
He had completely fallen into Yan Dan’s carefully crafted trap of righteousness.
...
Shaqiu!
In a forest.
Zhao Feng was riding a warhorse, holding Zhao Qi and Zhao Ling, the two little ones, in front of him.
The warhorse galloped.
Though very fast.
Zhao Feng’s riding skills were very impressive, the two little ones laughed joyfully, very happy, being well protected by their father.
"Dad."
"So fast."
"Dad rides faster than Grandpa." Zhao Qi said happily.
"Who is Grandpa?" Zhao Feng was taken aback, asking puzzledly.
"It’s Grandpa who lives in that big palace."
"We often go to play with Grandpa, Grandpa is very nice to us, often gives us good food, and even takes us horse riding." Zhao Ling said sweetly.
"Great King?"
Zhao Feng was taken aback, clearly not expecting: "You often go to the palace to find the Great King?"
This matter.
Wang Yan mentioned it to him once, saying the two little ones visited the Great King.
Zhao Feng didn’t think much of it then.
But now looking at it.
His two children seemed to have gotten quite familiar with the Great King, even being taken horse riding by him.
"Grandpa is very nice to us." Zhao Qi said with a cheerful smile.
Zhao Feng smiled slightly, pondering in his heart: "The King of Qin treats our family too well, doesn’t he, almost no minister receives such favor, does it mean I am really considered so important by the King of Qin, and that’s why he extends his kindness to my family?"
Thinking of this.
Zhao Feng felt somewhat relieved.
"The King of Qin is so good to me."
"When it really comes to the end of Qin."
"I must protect his lineage."
"That is what I can do for him."
Zhao Feng thought silently in his heart.
For the future.
Zhao Feng had no way to change it either.
After all, there is only one Emperor Qin Shi Huang, and Zhao Feng was only convinced by Emperor Qin Shi Huang.
