Ying Zheng, the first emperor of the Qin Dynasty!

Chapter 40: The Banshee of the Blue Sea Tide, Lady Pearl’s Uneasiness

"How could this be?"

In the Korean court, Han Wangan was completely dumbfounded.

The situation in South Korea was deteriorating at a speed far beyond his imagination.

South Korea's border town was destroyed overnight.

A hundred thousand troops were turned into prisoners.

Counties along the way, watch the wind and fall.

In just over ten days, Qin's 30-strong army had already arrived at Xinzheng City. They took turns attacking the city day and night.

Now, the tens of thousands of troops in Xinzheng City have been holding back for three days. It is visible to the naked eye that morale is getting worse and worse.

The Qin army seems likely to break into the city at any time.

South Korea's survival only lasts for ten days.

"Where's Bai Yifei? Why didn't he go to the border army?"

"How did Ji Yihu lead an army that allowed the Qin army to quietly break through the border city?"

"What's going on with all this?"

Because the news was blocked, the Korean monarchs and ministers at this time were still confused about the war at the border.

Even Ji Wuye only knew that the battle of Nanyang was defeated that day.

Moreover, because Luo Wang handled the battlefield that day so cleanly, he didn't know whether Bai Yifei and others were dead or alive now.

He knew nothing about border affairs.

Naturally, it was impossible for him to tell what happened that day. Otherwise, he would have lost [-] troops for no reason. This crime was not a small one.

"Your Majesty, at this point, it is useless to talk more. We can only wait for help."

"Xinzheng City is rich in materials, has a large population, and is strong. It can hold off the Qin army for at least half a month."

"As soon as reinforcements from other countries arrive, South Korea's crisis will be easily resolved."

The prime minister went out with an open attitude and reported to the king of Han.

"Reinforcements, where did the reinforcements come from? Why didn't any news come back from the envoys sent by this king?"

"Who can tell me?"

Han Wang'an was filled with anger. It seemed that this could make him ignore the fear in his heart.

There was no news from the envoys sent out, and no envoys came from the surrounding countries.

The capital city of Xinzheng was surrounded by Qin's 30-strong army and became an isolated island.

At this moment, Han Wangan only felt that someone was holding Bai Ling and wrapping it around his neck, tightening it tighter and tighter.

This feeling of sitting back and watching death approaching made him almost crazy.

"Father, calm down. Qin's 30-strong army is besieging Xinzheng. Even if the envoys have news, they can't get it in."

"If South Korea is destroyed and Qin's advance to the east is unstoppable, Zhao, Chu and other countries will not sit idly by."

"Reinforcements from various countries may arrive within a few days. Until then, what we, South Korea, have to do is hold on."

"As long as Xinzheng is not lost, South Korea will not be destroyed."

Below, the Fourth Young Master Han Yu came out and comforted King Han.

"Hold on, yes, hold on..."

When Han Wangan heard this, his chest rose and fell, and he took several deep breaths to finally suppress the tumbling emotions in his heart.

"General, tell me the truth, how long can Xinzheng City hold on?"

Han Wangan looked at Ji Wuye and spoke solemnly, with deep earnestness in his eyes.

"Your Majesty, there are currently [-] soldiers in Xinzheng City. Among the more than [-] civilians, [-] young men can also be recruited."

"There is also a lot of money and food. I am confident that I can hold off the Qin army for more than half a month."

Ji Wuye's report calmed Han Wangan's mood.

He was not willing to give up the power of this great general easily until the last step.

"Well, with the general here, I will feel at ease."

"In that case, please retreat from the court. Prime Minister, I would like you to send more men to see if we can break through and get in touch with other countries."

Han Wangan tried his best to give instructions, and then announced his resignation with a sad expression. …

Hanwang Palace, Pearl Palace.

After the exhausted King Han retired from the court, he went all the way to Madam Mingzhu's palace.

"Madam, I have been mentally and physically exhausted these past few days. Please help me relieve my fatigue and calm my nerves."

King Han ordered a group of attendants to wait outside the palace and spoke to Mrs. Mingzhu.

"My concubine obeys your orders. Your Majesty, please rest."

Madam Mingzhu, who has an exquisite appearance and tall figure, has eyes flowing as she bows to take orders.

She was wearing a purple tube top dress, embroidered with some patterns, and her buttocks were tightly wrapped, revealing her seductive lines.

At this moment, after hearing Han Wangan's order, Mrs. Mingzhu immediately took out a stick of incense from the box in front of the dressing table and lit it.

The smoke was shrouded in smoke, pulled by an inexplicable force, and enveloped Han Wangan.

"call……"

Not long after, Han Wangan, who was lying on the bed, relaxed his tightly knitted brows, relaxed deliberately, and fell into a deep sleep.

Upon seeing this, the respect on Mrs. Mingzhu's face quickly disappeared and she became indifferent.

She came to the bed, her hands filled with purple light, shrouding Han Wangan.

"The bloody Hou Bai Yifei disappeared, the border was lost, 30 Qin troops came to the city, Xinzheng was sealed..."

After searching some recent information from Han Wangan's memory, Mrs. Mingzhu's face suddenly became ugly.

She was originally a tide succubus, one of the four evil generals of the night. She was good at mixing incense and making poison, and was proficient in charm and illusion.

Since entering the palace ten years ago, he has used incense and illusions to control Han Wangan, thereby seeking benefits for the night.

However, more than ten days ago, Zi Zhui also led the troops on an expedition. After heading to the border, there was no news.

The night in Xinzheng City also cut off contact with her, making her almost blind in the palace.

She has a special status and dare not act rashly, so she can only wait for the opportunity.

It was only today, when King Han came here, that she had the opportunity to peek into his memory and understand the current situation.

However, this sight made Mrs. Mingzhu feel bad.

South Korea is not in an ordinary danger this time.

"Ji Wuye, what on earth are you playing?"

Mrs. Mingzhu took back the hand hanging above Han Wangan's head, her expression was very ugly.

"No, you can't just sit and wait."

After thinking for a moment, Madam Mingzhu immediately decided to go out to find Ji Wuye and ask for details.

She walked out of the palace and summoned the head of the chamberlain of the Pearl Palace.

"The king has gone to bed, please go down and no one is allowed to disturb you. If anything happens, we will tell you after the king wakes up."

"The slaves obey."

The head chamberlain bowed and accepted the order.

Mrs. Mingzhu nodded, returned to the palace, closed the door, and changed into normal clothes.

Then, she went straight to the corner of the palace and stepped on an inconspicuous corner three times.

"Yeah..."

A tunnel suddenly opened on the palace floor. Madam Mingzhu walked in without hesitation, and then closed the tunnel entrance.

The exit of the tunnel is a courtyard that has been prepared for the night. It is only one street away from the General's Mansion.

Madam Mingzhu took her direction and immediately headed towards Ji Wuye's mansion.

With her strength, she easily dodged the patrolling soldiers among the generals and arrived outside the room where Ji Wuye was.

At this moment, in the room, Ji Wuye, who looked gloomy, was drinking with Jade Tiger, showing little interest in the singing and dancing in front of him.

"Huh? Who?"

Suddenly, Ji Wuye seemed to feel something. He suddenly raised his head, looked out the window, and spoke sternly.
