Chapter 5 Five, murder

Nie Zheng would not do this. Nie Zheng was the assassin after Yurang and before Jingke.Unlike Jing Ke, his goal is very clear, which is to assassinate Han Xiang Xialei.His actions are also very secret, only he and Yan Zhongzi know. 10 This is more like a professional killer. Indeed, if it is said that Jin Ke is loyal, Yu Rang is persistent, and Jing Ke can act, then Nie Zheng is a professional.His "job" was really good. Not only did he kill Xia Lei neatly, but he also cleaned up the scene and cut off the clues, so that the Koreans would never know who the murderer was, let alone chase him behind the scenes.

Such an assassin is a craftsman. Craftsmen need diamonds.Without diamonds, he would not do porcelain work.Even if there is, it is not easy to get a job. Nie Zheng is like this. That's right, Nie Zheng also said that "a scholar dies for his confidant".His coming out of the mountain is mainly because of Yan Zhongzi's appreciation.In fact, this is almost a common feature of "Chinese killers".But it goes without saying that Nie Zheng is different from Yu Rang.He didn't want to take revenge himself, but was hired by others, and Yan Zhongzi was even more obvious that he was paying for murder.He offered a hundred yi of gold to Nie Zhengmu's birthday, which was the price he paid.

But no matter how high the price was, Nie Zheng was not moved.He declined Yan Zhongzi's gift and made it clear that "my mother is here, but I dare not promise anyone in politics."However, he appreciates it in his heart.Moreover, he believes that "blessing a hundred yi of gold" is just the expression of Yan Zhongzi's lack of himself.That being the case, I, Nie Zheng, "will use it for those who know me well." Therefore, when his mother passed away and the funeral was over, Nie Zheng made a special trip westward from Qi State to Wei State, met Yan Zhongzi in Puyang, and said bluntly: Who is your enemy?give it to me!

Yan Zhongzi was overjoyed. Yan Zhongzi, who had endured for a long time, decided to equip Nie Zheng with a small team.Because the target is the Prime Minister of South Korea, who is also the uncle of Marquis Han, he has a lot of people and is heavily guarded, so it is not easy to attack. However, Nie Zheng objected. Nie Zheng said that there must not be too many people involved in this matter.There are a lot of people talking, and there are a lot of right and wrong, how can there be no secrets?The consequences could be disastrous.Therefore, the minister can only go to perform the task alone.

Nie Zheng, who went alone, felt as if he had entered the land of no one.Holding a three-foot sword in his hand, he entered Korea, entered the capital, broke into the prime minister's mansion, went to the hall, and before the guards holding the spear halberd had time to react, he stabbed Xia Lei to death with his sword.Then, there was another long cry, killing dozens of the tired guards. The scene at this time is not difficult to imagine.Everyone must have been stunned, and no one dared to step forward. Nie Zheng began to attack himself. He first cut off his own face, then gouged out his own eyes, then disemboweled him and picked out his intestines, and then he fell to the ground and died.He did these actions in an orderly, meticulous and calm manner.

Nie Zheng, is he a "cold-blooded killer"? No, he is affectionate and righteous. What love? Family, and friendship. In fact, Nie Zheng was disfigured for no other reason than to protect everyone involved, including Yan Zhongzi.This is also his original intention of opposing the establishment of a small team.He made it very clear to Yan Zhongzi: Han and Wei are not far apart.Once the news is leaked, wouldn't it be dangerous for the whole country of the Koreans to oppose their lord? Similarly, once the true face is revealed, how can the sister who lives in Qi country not be implicated?

For this reason, Nie Zheng is willing to be an unsung hero. This is Nie Zheng's friendship. It's just that he didn't expect that his sister is even a chivalrous woman. 10.For the deeds of Nie Zheng, see "Historical Records: Biography of Assassins".
