"I like the Qin Dynasty and Qin Shi Huangdi the most."
"I know everything about him! What do you want to hear?"
What do you want to hear?
Ying Zheng thought for a moment and said, "You just said that Qin Shi Huang died in the Shaqiu Palace during his fifth tour?"
Qipan nodded, "Yes."
"So...how old was he when he died?"
Qi Pan said without hesitation, "49 years old, 210 BC."
What?
49 years old?!
210 BC? ! !
I actually died at the age of forty-nine???
Ying Zheng widened his eyes in disbelief!
My heart is shaken!
"Forty...forty-nine and he died?"
Qipan nodded, "Yes."
She looked at Ying Zheng in confusion, "Brother, why do you look so grim? I'm talking about Qin Shi Huang, not you."
Ying Zheng thought to himself, the Qin Shi Huang you are talking about is me!
The moment you opened your mouth and said that I died at the age of 49, how could I not look unhappy?
I used to think that I was 32 years old, still young and strong, and in good health.
When I heard that I could only live to forty-nine, I suddenly felt my waist and legs aching and I felt like I was about to die.
Ying Zheng put one hand on his chest and said, "My body feels a little uncomfortable."
ah?
"Hahaha, brother, please stop messing around. You look like someone who will live a hundred years!"
Qi Pan reached out and patted Ying Zheng's shoulder. "Look at your strong physique and broad, powerful arms. If you don't live to be a hundred, it will be a loss to the world!"
After hearing this, Ying Zheng felt inexplicably better.
"Thank you for your kind words, little brother. I also hope that I can live a long life."
Regardless of whether he can live to be a hundred years old, the pace of unifying the six kingdoms must be accelerated.
If he really can only live to forty-nine, that means he has seventeen years left.
Seventeen years is too short.
He still had much to do, and time was too short.
Qi Pan said, "Hey, brother, do you know about the story of the King of Qin circling the pillar?"
Um?
King Qin walks around the pillar?
The King of Qin is referring to him?
What about the winding column?
Why did he go around the pillar?
“I don’t have much impression…”
Ying Zheng looked at Qi Pan with a questioning look.
Qi Pan said, "You've forgotten this too? It's from the story of Jing Ke assassinating Qin Shi Huang."
"Do you remember Jing Ke's assassination of Qin Shi Huang? Jing Ke was ordered to assassinate Ying Zheng, who was then the King of Qin."
"The distance between them was too close, and Ying Zheng's bronze sword was too long, so he couldn't pull it out in a hurry."
"He could only run around the pillar to avoid Jing Ke's assassination. That's how the phrase 'The King of Qin Runs Around the Pillar' came about."
Jing Ke assassinated Qin?
Ying Zheng asked, "When did this happen? Why did Jing Ke want to assassinate the King of Qin?"
Qi Pan said, "In 227 BC, the Qin State destroyed the Zhao State, and the Qin cavalry arrived at the bank of the Yi River."
"Prince Dan of Yan knew the situation was critical and he had to find a way to stop Qin from annexing Yan."
"Thus, through Tian Guang's introduction, Prince Dan met Jing Ke."
"Prince Dan treated Jing Ke kindly and granted his every request. Jing Ke was deeply moved and agreed to serve as Prince Dan's personal defender and to go to Xianyang to assassinate King Ying Zheng of Qin."
oh?
In order to stop the Qin cavalry from stepping into the land of Yan and annexing the territory of Yan?
Prince Dan dares to order people to assassinate me?
Ying Zheng asked, "Isn't Yan afraid that the assassination attempt will fail and the King of Qin will be furious and lead his army to attack Yan?"
"I'm scared."
Qi Pan said, "It is precisely because of fear that Prince Dan wants to assassinate the King of Qin."
"Prince Dan at the time didn't actually intend to kill the King of Qin, but rather wanted to force him to sign some agreements."
"Promise not to attack Yan State, so as to buy Yan State some breathing space."
“What a pity…”
Ying Zheng was puzzled, "Oh? You assassinated the King of Qin just to force him not to attack Yan?"
"What are they thinking? They've already sent people to assassinate the King of Qin, so how can he let them go?"
He really couldn't understand it.
If you really want to make peace, offer some cities and food supplies and show your intention.
Perhaps he could let them go for the time being, and after conquering Wei, he would turn around and deal with Yan.
But now that Prince Dan of Yan has done this, how can he let him go?
We must send troops immediately to attack the State of Yan!
Qi Pan was also confused, "Yeah, I find it strange too."
"To this day, I still can't figure out Prince Dan's true motive for assassinating the King of Qin."
She thought about the comments she had read online before and said.
"Some people say it's because Prince Dan and the King of Qin were in the same situation when they were held hostage in Zhao State, so they clung to each other for support and had a good relationship."
"Later, King Ying Zheng of Qin returned to Qin and became the King of Qin, while Prince Dan remained a hostage."
"And he was sent to Qin as a hostage by his father!"
"The status of these two people was suddenly too high, which made Prince Dan jealous and envious of the King of Qin."
"Then the relationship between the two of them suddenly deteriorated."
"They also say that Prince Dan has a love-hate relationship with the King of Qin, an extreme tug-of-war..."
Later on, Qi Pan himself felt that the comments and speculations on the Internet were too unbelievable.
They even managed to link Prince Dan and Qin Shi Huang Ying Zheng into an ambiguous relationship.
She had to admire this imagination.
Ying Zheng said, "When we were both held hostage by the State of Zhao, we were in the same situation, so it was only natural that we should take care of each other."
"It's just... this love-hate relationship is really an exaggeration."
