In the hall.

Yan Yi had already been drinking shakingly. The old commander, who had been unsatisfied for more than 20 years, felt a lot of grievances in his heart. People with rigid personalities often had one weakness, that is, stubbornness, and the same was true for Yan Yi.

The fact that he had no talent but had no ability but was never valued was Yan Yi's heart for many years. Now, he is nearly 60 years old. He finally relied on his nephew Yan Le to become the guardian of Hangu Pass again. The years passed. With Yan Yi's age, it was almost impossible to go further in a short period of time.

"Mr. Zhao County Master, you and I have a fate in my words. I wish we met too late today. Come and have another cup!" Yan Yi picked up the wine cup, raised his head and drank it all.

"Damn!" Zhao Ben's eyes were red, and he was very depressed. Yan Yi in front of him was obviously not a person who was planning major issues. How could an old guy or a drunkard take on the burden of guarding such an important pass as Hangu Pass?

If Yan Yi had the ability, Zhao Ben would definitely shout: The traitor is here, take it down quickly!

Of course, as a hostage, a smart man who cherishes his life and overcomes integrity, Zhao Ben is also very self-aware. In this drama of fraud, his role is a puppet in front of the stage. Only when the play is performed well can there be rewards. If the performance is broken, no matter what else is mentioned, just Li Bi and a group of strong soldiers who are eyeing each other will be enough for Zhao Ben to bear it.

Li Bi was very nervous. This was his first time to take on an important task. Although Zhao Ben's thoughts were beaten by Chen Ping, they would not be guaranteed to be repeated. For others, Zong Zheng and Chen Di did not have to worry about anything. With Ying Yushu there, Chen Di should not have any abnormal thoughts, but whether they are afraid or not, in case of any unexpected changes—.

Although Yan Yi was an old man, there were more than twenty Qin army officers at the banquet, and they were all warriors in the army. If they were to fight, Li Qi would not disturb the guards who had already fallen asleep outside. It would be almost impossible.

General Li, why haven’t you come yet?

The later the time is, even if Yan Yi doesn't feel suspicious, he will not be sure that a defender officer will go outside. If he finds something, the fraudulent plan will be exposed.

Just as Li Bi was uneasy, the door slammed and was kicked open. Li Yuan rushed in with murderous intent.

"Who?" A guard general who was near the door exclaimed.

"puff!"

The sword entered the throat and blood surged wildly. Li Yuan raised his sword and fell, and instantly killed the general who was trying to resist. After he took action, Cao Xin and other guests of the Li family rushed towards the shaking enemy generals.

"Kill!" Li Bi shouted loudly, stepped forward, and stabbed Yan Yicang's body with a sword.

"You are traitors--!" Yan Yi was shocked. He did not expect that a drink tonight was the last time in his life. He was almost twilight. In fact, his best destination was to return to the countryside, be an elder, spend his old age, and leave it to the younger generation.

"Master Duwei, the King of Hell is asking you to go quickly!" Li Bi sneered, approached Yan Yi, who was bleeding and godless, and whispered.

"Zhao——!" Yan Yi shivered and slowly pointed at Zhao Ben who was staying in the table. The changes today were all because he trusted Zhao Ben.

The utilitarian spirit made Yan Yi lose everything, including his life. In almost a quarter of an hour, the first-class officers of the defending generals and the school at the banquet were wiped out.

Yan Yi and most generals and schools on the pass were killed by Li Yuan's raid. The few remaining people were surrounded by hundreds of light soldiers, and they were unable to organize effective resistance in a hurry. After Li Yuan officially launched the banner of clearing the monarch at the pass, most of the Qin army laid down their weapons.

The only thing that caused some trouble to Li Yuanjun was the crossbow soldiers sent by Yan Le. The crossbow soldiers guarding a passerby tried to fight against the beasts. After Ying Yushu appeared, the group of desperate Qin troops also began to surrender to Li Yuanjun.

Royal, sometimes, is just a name and seems to have no power.

But sometimes, it represents orthodoxy and the hearts of the people of Qin. After Hu Hai disappointed the Qin soldiers again and again, the appearance of Ying Yushu made them see hope again.

The Qin State was setting, and under the rule of Hu Hai and Zhao Gao, the military title system collapsed, and other systems during Shang Yang's legislation were abolished in disguise. In Xianyang, if you want to be promoted and make a fortune, you just need to join the Zhao faction. After repeated disappointments, the Qin soldiers at the bottom transferred their anger towards the court's incompetence to their hatred for Hu Hai and Zhao Gao.

In just one night, Li Yuan took advantage of the situation to get the Hangu dangerous pass. What was placed in front of him was the boundless Pingyuan of Guanzhong. The Wei River was rushing, from west to east. Li Yuan just had to lead the soldiers against the way and headed directly to Xianyang.

The capital of Daqin was the most important city of this era.

In front of Li Yuan, his arms bloomed.

——.

When Li Yuan was fooling to seize Hangu Pass and planned to enter Xianyang, Prime Minister Zhao Gao was still immersed in the joy of referring to a deer as a horse and making a government official.

Xianyang.

The spring cold is still there, and the thick fur coat is still worn by the people of Xianyang. Compared with the war-torn cities in Kanto, Xianyang City has not yet felt the threat of war. In fact, since the First Emperor ascended the throne, the threats of Qin from various countries in Kanto have become smaller and smaller. The coalition forces claiming to be one million will only be transferred to Hangu Pass at most.

On the banks of Lishan Mountain, the construction site of Afang Palace next to the Wei River was a scene of singing and dancing. Although the huge Afang Palace palace group built by the First Emperor was suspended due to the approach of Chen Shengjun, after the extermination of Zhou Wen's troops, the emperor Hu Hai, who was very fond of merit, ordered the restart of the project.

Zhao Gao was very dissatisfied with this. Hu Hai's son didn't know that the firewood, rice, oil and salt were expensive. Zhao Gao knew very well that the supply of the rebel army in Guandong had already emptied the Qin treasury. If the construction of the project was launched, even if he had money, he would not be able to find so many Xing Tu for a while.

After more than ten years of enduring humiliation and heavy burdens, after unremitting struggle and countless tricks, he finally defeated his opponents who threatened his status one by one. Now, above him, there are the second-generation Hu Hai who is like a puppet and betrayal of his relatives; under him, there are a group of officials in the court who are trembling and dare not tell a truth.

Zhao Gao, who has reached the peak of Qin's power, no longer takes Hu Hai as a student seriously. In his opinion, Zhao Gao is the only one in the Qin world. If Zhao Gao doesn't care about doing another amazing move if he is obedient in the court after a while.
