Chapter 18 King Xi of Yan stabbed Yan Dan to death!
Could he still see into people's hearts?
Thinking of this, Yan Fei's face flushed slightly, her heart beat rapidly, and she felt a little uneasy.

At this moment, she had lost all the nobility and composure of the Princess of the Yin-Yang Family.
A little girl falling in love for the first time.

Wuyang Pass.

Yan Dan, Gao Jianli, the Six-Fingered Black Knight and the generals of the Yan State gathered together, and the atmosphere was heavy.

"Ugh!"

"Jing Ke's assassination of Qin was done by me, Yan Dan, alone. If my head can calm the wrath of Qin, I, Yan Dan, will do my duty!"

"However, Qin is like a tiger and a wolf!"

"Even if I sacrifice my head, Qin will not give up."

"Therefore, I want to keep my useful body and contribute my last bit of strength to the State of Yan!"

Yan Dan pretended to be ready to die, but in fact it was just to make excuses.

After all, I am just afraid of death!

cut!
You talk so nobly, but it’s because you’re afraid of death!

General Yan Yi was secretly sarcastic in his heart.

His eyes rolled, revealing a cunning look.

As a general, Yan Yi is afraid of death and extremely cunning.

Faced with the aggressive Qin army and the land immortal Ying Ziye, Yan Yi did not want to go to war, for he was afraid of death.

"Your Highness, I have a sudden stomachache and will take my leave now."

Yan Yi found an excuse and prepared to leave.

Yan Dan had no doubt and nodded in agreement.

Yan Yi returned to his residence and immediately ordered his personal soldiers to ride at full speed to report the situation here to King Xi of Yan.

He knew King Xi of Yan's temperament very well.

He was absolutely cowardly and incompetent. If he knew that he could use Yan Dan's head in exchange for the Qin army's retreat, he would have sentenced Yan Dan to death without hesitation.

Inside Jicheng.

After receiving the secret information from General Yan Yi, King Xi of Yan immediately summoned Prime Minister Ju Wu to discuss countermeasures.

"My dear, what is your opinion on this?" King Xi of Yan asked Ju Wu for his opinion, but in fact he was expecting his approval.

Otherwise, he will bear the infamy of killing his son for peace alone.

Ju Wu is an experienced and shrewd man, how could he not see through King Xi of Yan's intentions?
"Your Majesty, it is obviously worthwhile to exchange the life of Prince Dan for the peace of the entire Yan State."

"Besides, this dispute was caused by Prince Dan, so he should be the one to end it."

Ju Wu was not a stubborn person, so he would naturally not go against the wishes of King Yan.

What's more, his hatred for Yan Dan was already deeply rooted.

Why did he insist on assassinating Qin for no reason?
It’s really asking for trouble!

"but……"

"He is my son after all!"

King Xi of Yan pretended to be reluctant, but in fact he wanted to issue an order immediately to send Yan Dan to Wuyang Pass and order him to commit suicide in order to ask the Qin army to withdraw.

In the face of royal power, family affection is nothing but a trivial bargaining chip!

"Your Majesty, national interests come first!" Ju Wu bowed deeply, giving King Yan enough face.

"In that case!"

"For the sake of Yan State, I can only sacrifice my son. Alas..."

Prince Xi of Yan and Prince Dan, father and son, are indeed alike, extremely hypocritical.

The next day.

The King of Yan sent a palace attendant with Wang Ling to Wuyang Pass.

When Yan Dan received the order from King Xi of Yan, he was shocked and could not believe it.

His father was going to sentence him to death with his own hands!
"Impossible! This can't be true! My father would never do this to me!" Yan Dan tightly grasped the royal decree in his hand and kept shaking his head, unwilling to accept the fact before him.

"His Royal Highness!"

"There's a royal seal on it, how could it be fake?"

"After all, this disaster was caused by you, and you should take responsibility for it."

The palace attendants looked directly at Yan Dan, their disgust evident in their expressions.

"Your Majesty, please grant your permission!"

General Yan Yi was the first to kneel down and begged Yan Dan to die in exchange for the withdrawal of the Qin army.

"Your Highness, please grant me your blessing!!!"

With Yan Yi's leadership, many generals responded, hoping that Yan Dan would sacrifice himself for peace.

Bang bang bang!
The deafening cheers made Yan Dan involuntarily take three steps back, pointing trembling fingers at Yan Yi and others.

"You...you..."

now.

Yan Dan's face turned pale, and he almost fell down. Fortunately, Gao Jianli caught him in time. "What happened?"

"What are you doing!?"

"How can the soldiers of Yan State be so afraid of death and bow to the powerful Qin State?"

A burly captain carrying a large hammer on his back accused Yan Yi harshly.

"Humph!"

"Little lieutenant, what do you know!"

"Isn't the peace of Yan State and the well-being of countless families more important than your life?"

Yan Yi responded coldly, fighting back with the belief that Yan Dan often talked about.

Big Hammer was speechless for a moment and could not refute.

"The Qin State is extremely cunning!"

"Even if His Royal Highness is willing to sacrifice himself, how can we deal with it if they don't withdraw their troops?"

Da Tiechui raised questions again. As Yan Dan's confidant, he could not sit idly by and watch Yan Dan die.

"Ying Ziye is the second son of the Qin State. His promise carries weight."

"If they don't withdraw, won't the world laugh at Qin's breach of trust?"

"With the death of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the mastermind behind the assassination of Qin will also disappear, and Qin will naturally withdraw its troops."

Yan Yi firmly believed that Yan Dan's death would force Ying Ziye to withdraw his troops.

If the situation wasn't urgent, he would never have chosen this path.

"this"

When it comes to the assassination of Qin, Da Tiechui was speechless and didn't know how to refute.

Although he supported Yan Dan, he also understood that Yan Dan was the source of the war.

"You guys. You guys"

“Do you really want me to die?!”

Yan Dan asked in a hoarse and sad voice.

"Your Highness has misunderstood."

"We don't want to kill you, but Qin forced us to do so."

Yan Yi hurriedly explained, unwilling to take the blame.

"Ah!"

"All right!"

"Then I"

Yan Dan closed his eyes, took a deep breath, looked determined, and slowly drew out the long sword from his waist.

When Yan Yi and others saw this, they smiled, thinking that Yan Dan was ready to commit suicide in exchange for Qin's withdrawal.

however,
moment!

Their smiles froze!

call out--

The sword flashed, and a blood line immediately appeared on Yan Yi's neck!
"Get rid of you first!"

Yan Dan's face was as gloomy as water, his eyes were fierce, and he killed Yan Yi without mercy.

"!!!"

The sudden situation stunned everyone!

The general was.
killed!
"When a general is away from home, he is not subject to military orders!"

"Father has been deceived by a traitor. After I defeat the Qin army, I will return to the capital to apologize to you."

"Gao Jianli, Big Hammer, Master."

“Now, please help me!”

"I, Yan Dan, swear to fight the tyrannical Qin to the end!"

Yan Dan made a request to Gao Jianli, Da Tiechui and Six-Fingered Black Knight.

He wants to seize power!

Take control of the 300,000 troops at Wuyang Pass!

Suicide is impossible, not possible in this life!

With nowhere else to go, Yan Dan could only take a risk!
"Your Highness is right!"

"We should fight the tyrannical Qin to the end!"

Da Tiechui took off the hammer on his back, stood behind Yan Dan, and waited for orders.

Gao Jianli and Six-Fingered Black Knight also nodded, drew their swords and prepared for action.
