Qin Dynasty: Starting with clinging to Zhao Ji's thigh

Chapter 165 Han Fei Enters Qin

"Ah I?"

Even with his eyes glazed over from drunkenness, Han Fei still couldn't help but exclaim in astonishment.

In an instant, he sobered up almost completely, and his groggy mind cleared up.

Han Fei already knew about the cession of Nanyang and even the matter of Honglian becoming his concubine.

However, none of the forces he could muster or borrow were able to break the deadlock.

He got drunk not only because he was helpless to save Korea, but also because he was distressed by his inability to protect Honglian.

But Han Fei never expected that this would involve him.

Given the current situation between Qin and Han, it wouldn't make much sense for him to be a hostage.

"Are these Lord Changxin's conditions, or Qin's conditions?"

Wei Zhuang spoke in a low voice, his expression still calm, but his tone seemed to have a slight fluctuation.

Although Han Fei was ambitious, he was constrained at every turn, but he still showed his unique personal charm and had become a friend recognized by Wei Zhuang!

The eunuch who came to deliver the imperial edict was quite polite, and said with a smile, "I heard that this was an extra request made by Lord Changxin. The King of Qin greatly admires your talent and has always wanted to meet the Ninth Prince."

Everyone in Zilan Pavilion looked at each other in bewilderment; this reason was truly unexpected.

Zi Nu, however, moved with graceful steps, her brows slightly furrowed, her voice carrying a hint of languor: "Lord Changxin once said that the King of Qin greatly admired Han Fei's works such as 'Five Vermin' and 'Difficulty in Persuasion,' studying them day and night. It seems... this was not just a polite remark."

After learning the reason, Han Fei was not upset at all, and instead showed a bright smile: "It is my good fortune to have gained the attention of the King of Qin."

Wei Zhuang, sword in hand, lowered his voice and sneered, "Lord Changxin is no ordinary man. This young King of Qin dares to defy the world and allow Lord Changxin to govern his fiefdom autonomously. If he is not foolish, then he possesses the ambition and audacity to conquer the world!"

Beside him, Zhang Liang sighed softly: "Lü Buwei held immense power in the Qin state, yet he was completely suppressed within just a few years. Now he can only quietly relinquish power and stay at home writing books."

Zi Nu's voice remained gentle: "The transfer of power often means turmoil, but in Qin, everything is very stable. How can such a King of Qin be called foolish?"

Finally, Han Fei smiled and said, "Therefore, the King of Qin may be even more terrifying than Lord Changxin."

"He possesses enough charisma to be confident that he can suppress Lord Changxin, which must mean he has an ambition to encompass the entire world!"

The group of people took turns expressing their opinions.

Honglian's idea was much simpler: "Brother, come with me to the palace to see Father. There must be a way to make him retract his decree."

Han Fei did not speak, but gazed at Hong Lian with gentle eyes, his smile somewhat bitter.

In these chaotic times, how long can Honglian maintain her innocence?

Wei Zhuang ignored Honglian's naive words and said coldly, "Han Fei, the state of Han has restricted you. The King of Qin's praise is enough to prove your ability."

Han Fei's smile grew increasingly bitter.

Does his ability really need the praise of other kings to prove it?

After returning to South Korea, he was eager to put his skills to use and help the devastated country rise again.

But when they actually tried to unleash their power, they found themselves hampered at every turn, unable to break through the darkness.

If it were simply Nightfall, under Ji Wuye's command, Han Fei felt that he might still be able to come up with some solutions.

With Lord Changxin and the Qin state involved, he had to consider more things, making the situation even more difficult.

Even so, Han Fei always believed that if given more time, he would be able to come up with a suitable solution.

However, he never expected that... everything would change so suddenly.

Since Lord Changxin came to Qin, he hasn't made many moves.

But suddenly... Lady Mingzhu, Bai Yifei, and Ji Wuye all sided with the Qin state.

The situation changed too quickly; even if Han Fei had many plans, there was no time left.

"Entering Qin..."

Han Fei faced west, murmuring softly, his gaze seemingly piercing through layers of space to see a heroic and dashing young king.
