Chapter 494: Blessings from Cultivation
Guo was caught off guard at first and was slashed several times by Zhao Qian. Blood flowed all over the ground, which aroused Guo Kai's ferocity.
He no longer hid, but bravely took another blow. He seized the opportunity to grab Zhao Qian's ceremonial sword, kicked Zhao Qian to the ground, and said with a fierce smile: "You little bastard, you think you can kill me."
Zhao Qian was already young and weak, and his body had been drained by alcohol and sex. After being kicked hard by Guo Kai, he was completely unable to muster any strength.
He looked at Guo Kai with horror as he walked towards him step by step, "What do you want to do! I am the King of Zhao!"
Guo Kai smiled cruelly: "Do you know how your father died? He was beaten to death by me! He was poisoned to death by your mother herself!"
Zhao Qian howled, "Guo Kai, you dared to kill the king! You deserve to be cut into pieces!"
"A villain?" Guo Kai suddenly recalled the days when he was a lackey of Zhao Yan when he was young. It was simply unbearable to look back. He immediately said in anger, "So what if I am a villain? I deserve to be beaten and scolded by you! Go to hell!"
Guo Kai, who had fought with Zhao Yan many times in Handan, knew very well the essence of "if you can't kill someone by hacking, you can kill him by stabbing him". He stabbed a sword into Zhao Qian's abdomen and pulled it out directly, and blood sprayed all over Guo Kai's face.
But Guo Kai didn't care at all. He took Zhao Yan's royal robe and wiped it on his face. At this moment, Guo Kai looked particularly ferocious.
The maids in the palace were trembling with fear at the sudden bloodbath, and Guo Kai smiled coldly.
He understood that if he didn't take action today, he would be the one to die.
The situation is not that bad now.
Calculating the time, I have been waiting outside Zhao Qian's palace for more than an hour, plus the time wasted just now. Cheng Jiao is in Queen Chang's bedroom. Wow, Queen Chang, it has been so long, it is probably about time. I have to hurry over there.
As for whether this would anger Cheng Jiao, he could only take it one step at a time and hope that Cheng Jiao would save his life because of his dedication.
But when Guo Kai thought about killing Queen Chang's only son, he felt a little scared, but he couldn't care less. It was better than dying at the hands of this kid Zhao Qian.
Guo Kai simply covered Zhao Yan's body casually and walked out of the hall quickly.
He howled, "There's an assassin! The king is being assassinated! Go and protect him!"
He was very glad that when Zhao Qian was enjoying himself in the palace, he scolded all the guards and sent them away, leaving only a dozen or so palace maids of little use.
Guo Kai's attempt to confuse the public immediately caused chaos in the palace.
Zhao Kai, who was Zhao Qian's close attendant, was not surprised but happy when he heard it, with a hint of joy on his face.
He stopped Guo Kai and asked carefully, "What happened to the king?"
Guo Kai's eyes flickered slightly. He never thought that he would be stopped by Zhao Kai.
"It's Luowang's assassin. The king has been killed! Lord Zhao, go and catch the murderer!"
Zhao Kai could no longer hide the joy on his face: "Really?"
He was the fourth son of Zhao Yan. When his eldest brother Zhao Jia was sent to Qin as a hostage, his second brother died young, and his third brother was prostituted and exiled together with Guo Kai, he decisively defected to Zhao Qian. Trusted by Zhao Qian, he had always wanted to seize the opportunity to regain his throne.
Guo Kai was very anxious at the moment. Once the palace maid in the palace revealed the truth, he would not be able to leave even if he wanted to.
"How can it be true? I still need to mobilize troops to guard the palace, so I'll be leaving first!"
Zhao Kai immediately stopped Guo Kai and laughed inexplicably: "Why are you leaving, Prime Minister? Now that the king is dead, who do you think will be the next candidate for the throne?"
Guo Kai endured the pain from the sword wound on his body. He didn't care who it was, everyone would die at the hands of Cheng Jiao.
"I know, don't worry, I will support Master Zhao!"
Zhao Kai nodded with satisfaction: "Then... huh?"
He keenly noticed that blood was dripping from Guo Kai's body, "Is the Prime Minister injured?"
Guo Kai reacted quickly: "I helped the king block a few swords."
Zhao Kai thought so too, but he had a vague feeling that something was wrong. Suddenly, he heard from the hall that the assassin was Guo Kai, and he was startled.
Guo Kai obviously heard it as well and ran away.
Zhao Kai immediately realized, "Guo Kai! It was you who killed the king!?"
Even though he still didn't understand why Guo Kai killed Zhao Qian, it didn't matter now. As long as he caught Guo Kai and killed him, he would be the next King of Zhao, and that would be a foregone conclusion.
As Guo Kai ran, the blood flowed faster, pulling at the sword wounds on his body. His vision went dark, he staggered, and almost fell.
Zhao Kai caught up in an instant. Since he could become Zhao Qian's close attendant, he was naturally not weak and was more than capable of controlling Guo Kai.
"Tell me! Did you kill the king?"
Guo Kai was bleeding too much, seeing stars, unable to speak, and shaking uncontrollably.
When Zhao Kai saw this, his brain started working immediately. Guo Kai was dead, and the only one who could stop him from ascending to the throne was Queen Chang.
"Where is the queen?"
Guo Kai suddenly heard this and shuddered, "In the bedroom."
His only hope now is that Zhao Kai can take him over to wherever Cheng Jiao is and save his life.
Zhao Kai grinned and said, "Very good, Prime Minister, you can die in peace!"
After slitting Guo Kai's throat with a sword, Zhao Kai immediately ordered the imperial guards who rushed over: "Guo Kai has been executed, but Guo Kai has accomplices who want to murder the Queen Mother. Go quickly!"
After saying this, he ran towards the Queen's bedroom, intending to kill her in the chaos to avoid any trouble for himself when he ascended to the throne.
……
In the Queen's bedroom, Cheng Jiao, who had just beaten her to a pulp, suddenly sensed some commotion in the palace.
He patted the queen who was about to turn into a pulp and asked, "What happened in the palace?"
Under Cheng Jiao's high-intensity exercise, the Queen managed to hold on for a breath and said, "I have been in this pool the whole time, how can I know what happened?"
The palace maids beside the bathing pool were already a little numb at this moment.
Witnessing with their own eyes how humble the empress dowager was in front of a man, even less dignified than the palace maids, the impact on them was extremely intense.
Upon seeing this, Cheng Jiao released his soul perception, covering half of the palace.
I could faintly hear some voice saying that the king was dead.
"Your son...seems to have been assassinated."
The queen, who was feeling somewhat powerless, was unable to react upon hearing this. "Who died?"
Cheng Jiao said with a strange look on his face: "Your son."
He felt a little regretful, as he had originally wanted King Zhao Qian to call him "fake father".
The queen's pretty face, which was once rosy and pretty, turned extremely pale, and she trembled as she asked, "Did you kill him?"
Cheng Jiao shrugged: "Why would I kill him? From what people say, it seems that it was Guo Kai who did it."
"Guo Kai? How is that possible!"
After the queen finished screaming, she suddenly remembered that Qian'er had wanted to plot against Guo Kai and kill him not long ago.
Tonight Guo Kai goes to persuade Qian'er. Given Qian'er's personality, he may attack Guo Kai in a rage.
When she thought of this, the queen felt a little dizzy. She was only thinking about playing with Cheng Jiao and didn't think about too much. What a sin!
"Master, I want Guo Kai dead!"
The queen's eyes were red and she looked angry.
Cheng Jiao put on his clothes by the pool. "He's dead. It seems he was killed by a man named Zhao Kai. Now Zhao Kai has brought people here with Guo Kai's head."
"Oh no, he wants to harm me! Sir, save me!"
Changhou didn't bother to put on her clothes. She had very little strength left and fell limply at Cheng Jiao's feet, hugging Cheng Jiao's calves with a sad and scared look on her face.
When faced with his own safety, he even forgot about the death of his son.
Cheng Jiao exerted a little force and kicked the woman away, "Put on your clothes and leave with me."
Although he didn't really treat the Queen as a human being, she was still his big toy after all, and he would not leave her alone. The Queen quickly got up and put on her clothes hastily, looking extremely embarrassed.
There were also thin lines of water below, which occasionally broke through the water vapor in the bathroom and fell to the ground.
Upon seeing this, Cheng Jiao had no choice but to give Queen Chang some spiritual power to avoid bringing shame to him.
The queen, who had recovered a lot, walked barefoot on the ground and followed Cheng Jiao out somewhat stiffly.
During the time that the Queen was lingering, the outside of the palace was already filled with royal guards, densely surrounding Cheng Jiao and the Queen who had just come out.
Zhao Kai's eyes narrowed slightly when he saw the queen Chang following a man in disheveled clothes.
"How dare you, a lowly person, hold the Queen Mother hostage!"
Cheng Jiao held Queen Chang in his arms, and remained calm even when facing nearly a thousand palace guards.
"Hostage? Haha! I hereby declare that your queen mother will be my woman from now on!"
Zhao Kai was stunned and stared at Cheng Jiao again and again.
As if he had thought of something, he shouted, "Are you Chang'an Marquis Chengjiao!?"
Cheng Jiao said calmly: "That's right!"
Zhao Kai grinned and said, "Very good! If it weren't for that old fellow Guo Kai who ordered the city guards not to leave the city, we would have wiped out the Qin army you brought with you. Since you came to my door and dared to insult the Queen Mother, then stay!"
Archers, get ready, shoot and kill Qin Jun Cheng Jiao, whoever kills him will be rewarded with a thousand gold coins! "
The Queen didn't expect Zhao Kai to be so cruel. She screamed, "Zhao Kai! How dare you! I'm still here!"
Zhao Kai snatched the powerful bow from the imperial guard's hand and aimed directly at Cheng Jiao.
"Queen Mother! Now that the Qin army is attacking, the king has been stabbed to death. Handan cannot be lost again! Archers, release your arrows!"
After drinking it, Zhao Kai shot Cheng Jiao to death immediately.
Among the imperial guards, those who were bribed by Zhao Kai and those who were attached to Zhao Kai also shot arrows. When the imperial guards at the back saw the arrows flying out, they subconsciously released their bowstrings.
For a moment, the dense arrows swarmed like locusts passing by.
Cheng Jiao let out a sigh of relief.
He shouted, "A thousand miles of ice!"
As soon as he spoke these words, it was as if he was carrying the divine law, turning the area outside the empress's bedroom into a world of ice and snow.
The arrow in mid-air suddenly lost power and fell to the ground.
Nearly a thousand imperial guards dozens of meters away were frozen to the ground. Although they were not dead, they had no fighting power. As for the chief culprit Zhao Kai, he was directly turned into an ice sculpture and lost his life.
The queen who witnessed this scene shuddered violently. Although she had heard Guo Kai say that Cheng Jiao killed two thousand people alone, it was not until now that she realized how powerful the man who was holding her in his arms was. He was so powerful that she was willing to be his slave and wanted to stay by his side.
Cheng Jiao did not leave immediately. He did not expect that his full-strength attack just now would have such power.
My own strength is developing towards an inhuman level.
Holding the queen's soft waist, Cheng Jiao walked out of the palace step by step.
Now that Guo Kai is dead, Queen Chang is of little use, so he might as well charge out and use his personal strength to shock everyone in Handan City. After that, he can let Queen Chang take action to clean up the mess and force the State of Zhao to surrender.
Late at night, the bright moon hangs high.
The city of Handan was in chaos.
Cheng Jiao hugged Queen Chang and walked out of the city step by step. Countless city guards appeared behind him, and imperial guards and city guards kept running towards him from all directions.
The Queen held Cheng Jiao tightly, fearing that Cheng Jiao would think she was in the way and throw her aside.
At this moment, her mood was extremely complicated. In just one night, her son died, and her affair with Cheng Jiao seemed to be exposed again.
But compared to the strength displayed by Cheng Jiao, Queen Chang was extremely excited.
At this moment, the dead son and the reputation were of no importance.
At worst, she could have another child with Cheng Jiao. As long as Cheng Jiao didn't dislike her, it would be fine if she was exposed.
No matter what, she is still the queen mother of a country and the queen mother who rules the country.
With such a status, becoming Cheng Jiao's concubine, or even a slave, she believed that no man could resist such vanity.
Cheng Jiao had no idea what Queen Chang was thinking, and there was no one blocking his way in front of him at the moment.
Any soldier who blocked the way was turned into an ice sculpture.
The crossbowman who was shooting arrows from a distance was shot and killed by an ice arrow that appeared out of nowhere.
In a moment, Cheng Jiao walked all the way to the city gate. The city of Handan became a little weird.
Cheng Jiao looked at the extremely thick and huge city gate in front of him and chuckled: "Queen Chang, do you think I can blast open this gate?"
The queen forced a smile and flattered him: "Young master, you are omnipotent. How can a mere city gate stop you?"
Cheng Jiao took out the Shui Han Sword.
He turned his back to the countless Zhao soldiers and slowly drew his sword in front of them.
"cut!"
Cheng Jiao shouted so loudly that the queen was almost deafened and everything in front of her eyes turned white.
I saw a huge ice blade of more than ten feet in length slamming into the city gate.
The city gate, which was originally extremely solid, was instantly shattered by Cheng Jiao's sword.
The city gate that can withstand thousands of troops is just a piece of paper in Cheng Jiao's eyes.
The soldiers who witnessed Cheng Jiao's great power were all silent.
Is that human being?
The sound of weapons hitting the ground was endless.
Even many commanders did not react.
Soon, after Cheng Jiao left with Queen Chang, Handan City was in commotion.
In the middle of the night, it is particularly eye-catching.
In the Qin army camp, Yueshen and Dasi Ming saw Cheng Jiao returning, and there was some doubt in their beautiful eyes.
As for the prostitute who was following behind Cheng Jiao with her head down and disheveled clothes, he just glanced at her and didn't take her seriously.
"Sir, was it you who caused the commotion in the city?"
Cheng Jiao let out a sigh and said with a smile, "Not bad. There was a small accident, so I did this to shock the powerful people in Handan City."
After a slight pause, he said, "At dawn tomorrow, let the soldiers enter the city."
Looking at the queen who was bowing her head, Cheng Jiao directly ordered: "Cooperate with the Moon God and make all the officials in Handan City behave themselves. Do you understand?"
The Queen subconsciously said, "This palace...I understand."
Now her body and mind have been conquered by Cheng Jiao. In front of Cheng Jiao, she is left with only slavery and worships Cheng Jiao as a god. Only in this way can she be Cheng Jiao's woman without any hindrance.
The Moon Goddess chuckled and said, "Your Majesty is quite charming to have the Queen Mother of a country call herself a slave."
Cheng Jiao held Yue Shen's waist and said with a faint smile: "What is there to be proud of? This woman is just a prostitute. It is her blessing to be my slave."
The queen forced a smile and said, "Your Excellency is right. It is a blessing for me to be your woman and your servant."
Da Siming secretly curled his lips on the side, saying that she was even more despicable than her, what a bitch.
