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

Chapter 150 Calling a Horse a Deer

Bai Yifei's voice was cold and tinged with dissatisfaction.

But his choice was firm, without any hesitation.

Madam Mingzhu's snow-white face remained unchanged, her smile unsurprised by Bai Yifei's choice.

After returning to Xinzheng, Bai Yifei also learned about the Baiyue treasure.

However, since Lady Mingzhu had already made her choice, he could only form a united front and did not send the White Armor Army to participate in the matter.

Now, Lady Mingzhu is helping Lord Changxin to call a horse a deer in front of everyone.

Bai Yifei will still make the same choice.

What has been will be again, what has been done will be done again.

As Bai Yifei uttered the cold word "deer," the vast palace fell silent.

Even someone as innocent as Honglian sensed the unusual atmosphere and shrank back to the side.

Han Fei's face was solemn, his eyes fixed on Ying Jing.

"How...how could this be!"

If Lady Mingzhu's blatant "calling a horse a deer" only made King Han An feel that he might be being cuckolded.

But now that Bai Yifei had said the same thing, Han Wang'an became uneasy and broke out in a cold sweat from fear.

Bai Yifei holds military power; his 100,000-strong White Armor Army is arguably the most powerful army in South Korea!

Ever since Ying Jing arrived in Han, King An of Han has been on guard, not daring to let him get too close to Ji Wuye.

However, King Han An never expected that Bai Yifei had already gotten involved with Lord Changxin's side as soon as he returned to Xinzheng!

Gongsun Long had already seen through Ying Jing's plan, but he couldn't understand why Bai Yifei and Lady Mingzhu, two high-ranking figures in Korea, would cooperate with Ying Jing.

He couldn't resist plucking a small tuft of white hair from his chin. The pain made him grimace, revealing a mouthful of large, yellow teeth.

Gongsun Linglong held tightly to Gongsun Long's arm, her plump body trembling slightly, and the peach blossom fan in her hand had somehow slipped from her grasp and fallen to the ground.

Surprise, fear, or shock...

Inside the hall, all sorts of gazes came from all directions.

But Ying Jing completely ignored him. He simply stroked the mane of the pony in front of him and smiled gently.

"General Ji, what do you think of what Marquis Blood-Clad's words?"

Of course, having only Madam Mingzhu and Bai Yifei is not enough.

But if Ji Wuye is added to the mix, the situation will be very different!

No matter how well Bai Yifei hides his true identity, Ji Wuye is the real Grand General of Han, commanding the largest army and having numerous cronies in the court.

As long as Ji Wuye reveals a clear stance, the entire Korean court will be plunged into panic.

The main reason was that Ying Jing felt he had spent too much time in South Korea and his attitude seemed to be too good.

Ji Wuye, Bai Yifei, Han Wang'an... they all dare to make some underhanded moves!

Although both Ji Wuye and Bai Yifei seemed to want to get closer to him, their attitudes were actually somewhat wavering.

Today presents just such an opportunity. Why not cut to the chase and force them to make a choice?

Ji Wuye was staring intently at Bai Yifei.

Bai Yifei was very good at hiding his true intentions, but Ji Wuye was not completely unaware of them; he had never truly trusted Bai Yifei.

But Ji Wuye never expected that Bai Yifei would have colluded with Changxin Jun!

Upon hearing Ying Jing's question, Ji Wuye was caught in a dilemma.

This is no longer a debate; it's about taking sides.

Ji Wuye didn't remain silent for long before bursting into a hearty laugh.

"Hahaha, Lord Changxin, why ask so many questions? Lady Mingzhu and Marquis Xueyi would never be mistaken; this is of course a deer!"

Ji Wuye made his own choice.

Bai Yifei has already sided with Changxin Jun, and the Korean army is now in their hands.

Even if the King of Han and certain powerful figures in South Korea are dissatisfied, what can they do? They can only endure it.

He sided with Captain Xinjun and with the Qin state, yet he remained the great general of the Han state!

For Ji Wuye, this choice wasn't too difficult, since he had already made an agreement with Ying Jing before.

The worst outcome would be for him to become an ordinary general in the Qin state.

South Korea was already a wrecked ship, so of course it couldn't sink to the bottom of the sea with it.

General Ji Wuye's immense power and influence in the court were truly not just empty words.

His weight is absolutely sufficient.

As soon as Ji Wuye spoke, many of the Han officials who were initially panicked quickly regained their composure.

Their thinking was simple: just follow the general's lead!

"The General is right. Why ask so many questions, Lord Changxin? It's just a deer!"

"How could anyone mistake such a large deer?"

"No normal person would mistake it for a horse. Anyone who would mistake it for a horse must have bad eyesight."

The lively discussion was a bit noisy, but not hard to hear.

Zhang Kaidi, his courtiers, and King Han An all turned green with rage.

Lord Changxin of Qin brazenly staged this act of pointing at a horse and calling it a deer in the court of Han!

None of the Han officials in the hall dared to come out and object?

Zhang Kaidi wanted to speak, but after several attempts, he couldn't open his mouth at all.

What an irony, what a disgrace!

But Ying Jing still seemed unsatisfied, and he looked at King Han An.

"I suppose the King of Han's judgment is most accurate. May I ask, King of Han, is this a deer or a horse?"

Han Wang'an's face immediately turned even greener.

He suspected that if he were to say that this was a horse, this group of treacherous officials would probably "blind" him.

Not a single person objected!

Han Wang An was now seriously doubting whether he had seen things correctly. He rubbed his eyes and carefully examined the "deer" that Ying Jing was leading in the center of the hall.

But no matter how he looked at it, it was a small white pony.

"Of course it's a deer. Lord Changxin, there's no need to ask any further. Surely not so many people in the Korean court are mistaken!"

Han Wang An laughed heartily and said loudly.

Ying Jing nodded in satisfaction, looking around the entire hall. Almost no one dared to meet his gaze, except for one cold gaze that never yielded.

Ying Jing did not provoke the Yin Yang School at this time; he only looked in the direction of Gongsun Long and Gongsun Linglong.

“Mr. Gongsun Long, if you can’t even tell the difference between a deer and a horse, then there’s no need to argue about whether a white horse is a horse.”

Gongsun Long finally stopped showing off his big yellow teeth.

His white hair and beard suddenly seemed to turn gray, and he nodded bitterly, his aged appearance growing even more so.

"Indeed, there is no need to argue anymore."

Ying Jing never intended to debate with him. What's the point of debating if you're trying to intimidate someone with overwhelming power?
