Time passed day by day, and all the anti-Qin forces around Yishan were frantically searching for Gu Xun's location in the past two days.

Unfortunately, no one can find out the specific location of Gu Xun. They can only try to determine whether Gu Xun has arrived at Yishan.

And the answer to this question is no.

All the information gathered by various forces through various means showed that Gu Xun was not there.

Although I am very afraid of Gu Xun, the national master, since I have taken all available means to verify his absence, there is no need to be timid.

The opportunity must not be missed and never come again. If they don't take action now, they will be even more afraid of Gu Xun's existence when Mount Tai is granted the title of Zen.

So various forces began to contact the Tian family one after another, intending to join the other party's joint assassination operation.

Since a lot of time was spent on gathering intelligence, there was not much time left for these anti-Qin forces.

They still need to discuss the details of the joint assassination in detail, and time is very tight.

The same is true for the Mohists, they must make a decision as soon as possible.

"If I don't think it's possible, just join first." Pirate Zhi clapped his hands and shouted, "If there is a problem with the plan, we can treat it passively if he is not allowed to withdraw."

"For example, if you send me to participate alone, how come I can't run across a hill as big as a palm with my legs?"

Master Ban shook his head solemnly, "This is not only your safety and mine, but it may also involve Confucianism. It's not something to be trifled with."

"How could the Confucians be involved in our assassination of Ying Zheng? They were not involved!" Pirates Zhi muttered unhappily.

Xiaoyaozi suddenly stroked his beard and smiled, "I feel like I'm back in Daze Mountain again. It's a very similar situation!"

"Similar? How are they similar?" Thieves Zhi asked confusedly.

Ge Nie explained kindly, "In Daze Mountain, a group of people are robbing something. The same is true in Yishan."

The difference is that the former grabs the position of the peasant hero, while the latter grabs Ying Zheng's head.

Robber Zhi is not stupid either. He immediately understood what Gai Nie said, but he still didn't understand:

"This is different too."

"The peasant family is fighting among themselves for the position of the hero, and now we are obviously joining forces to assassinate Ying Zheng!"

"The peasant family had no external enemies at that time, so it fell into internal fighting. But now all the anti-Qin forces have a clear goal, so they are unanimous in attacking the outside world."

Gai Nie further explained, "But in essence, both the farmers at that time and the anti-Qin forces today are just fish in the pond who saw the bait."

Master Ban also didn't quite understand what Gai Nie and Xiaoyaozi meant, "Even so, where is the danger? Is it the risk of assassinating Ying Zheng?"

Gai Nie shook his head and replied with solemn eyes, "A risk is just a risk, not a danger."

"The real danger is not coming towards us."

Xiaoyaozi added from the side, "Zhao Gao's goal should be Confucianism from beginning to end... He is definitely a qualified hunter and does not intend to blindly create extraneous problems."

"The danger of going towards Confucianism..." Master Ban repeated these words, still not understanding everything.

Pirate Zhi urged impatiently, "Mr. Gai, Master Xiaoyao, just talk to me. I'm worried."

"Similar to Daze Mountain, in the Yishan game, Zhao Gao still used a conspiracy that was close to a conspiracy." Xiaoyaozi and Gai Nie looked at each other, smiled, stopped trying to be pretentious, and explained bluntly.

"A chivalrous man uses force to break the law. This is the sin of the peasant family."

"But Confucians are not farmers and will never touch this sin."

"Confucianism is the fault of Confucianism."

Gai Nie followed Xiaoyaozi's words and continued, "Since the Feng Chan incident took off, Confucianism has been at the forefront of the storm."

"They enjoy the most attention in the world, and they also attract the most undesirable annoyance - Ying Zheng's annoyance."

"Ying Zheng is only temporarily tolerant of the many outdated thoughts and concepts of Confucianism, just for the time being."

"The matter of Feng Chan has fermented to the point where it is so popular today." Xiaoyaozi took over and continued, "This shows that Ying Zheng attaches great importance to it."

"If the Yishan Ceremony, which is the beginning of the enshrinement of Zen, encounters changes, how do you think he will feel?"

Faced with Xiaoyaozi's question, Daozhi scratched his head and replied, "Going into a rage?"

"Maybe." Xiaoyaozi stroked his beard and smiled, nodding slightly and replied, "In any case, he must be very angry."

"Where do you think Ying Zheng's anger will eventually be directed?"

"Confucianism?" Taizhi dragged out a long sound and gave the answer, but it was obvious that he didn't understand the answer very well and was just confused.

"The law does not punish the public, and in the face of a group of rebels, how can Ying Zheng spread anger?" Xiaoyaozi nodded and said with a smile.

Ying Zheng had already been angry with these anti-Qin forces eight hundred years ago. If he wanted to express his anger now, it would be best to choose a new target.

Confucianism just hit his target.

Of course, if Ying Zheng was not an emotional person, none of this would have happened.

However, Ying Zheng is a highly emotional person.

Although sometimes he would exercise restraint, Confucianism... just wasn't qualified enough for him to exercise restraint.

"Zhao Gao may not have laid any traps in Yishan, but just... made the Tian family think they had an excellent opportunity."

"This is a situation that only Zhao Gao can set up. Only he... can accurately control Ying Zheng's emotions." Gai Nie added lightly.

"Then give up the assassination? Let's make it clear to the Tian clan. They won't be upset, right?" Bandit Zhi spread his hands and said.

"Have the peasants ever given up on competing for the title of hero?" Xiaoyaozi asked, stroking his beard.

"Isn't this different..." Thief Zhi scratched his head.

"There is no difference. The temptation of Ying Zheng's life to the anti-Qin forces is no less than that of the knight leader to the peasant disciples." Gai Nie responded calmly, "Besides, it is the Confucians who bear the consequences."

Using the reason that Confucianism may suffer serious consequences to persuade those who are bent on assassinating Ying Zheng to give up their actions will only make others laugh out loud.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Who cares whether Confucianism dies or not?

Confucianism is not the same as them.

In fact, if they were not concerned about the relationship between Zhang Liang and Xiaoshengxianzhuang, the Mohists might not be willing to meddle in Confucian affairs.

Our relationship was not good to begin with.

"Then...then what should we do?" Neither joining nor giving up was an option. Thief Zhi was completely defeated and asked with his head hanging down.

Master Ban also looked at Gai Nie and Xiaoyaozi with a headache, "What do you two think?"

Gai Nie and Xiaoyaozi looked at each other, but neither of them spoke.

When we were in Daze Mountain, as long as one of the six farmhouse halls was dishonest, civil strife in the farmhouse would be inevitable.

It's the same now, with so many anti-Qin forces gathering together, as long as they don't all give up, there's a high probability that assassinations will still happen.

It doesn't seem to make any difference whether they participate or not.

Neither of them could give any suggestions and could only let Master Ben make his own decision.

Xue Nu raised a question at this time, "Can this level of arrangement really kill Confucianism?"

Ge Nie replied in a deep voice, "Maybe not, but this is just the beginning."

The situation in Daze Mountain revolves around the Yinghuo Stone and is limited to a limited time.

But no one can say how long Zhao Gao's game against the Confucians will last.

Xue Nu was silent for a moment, then looked at Master Ban, "Then please contact the Tian family."

"Since it's destined to happen, we can't be ignorant."

"That's right." Master Ben let out a sigh of relief, nodded, and approved Xue Nu's decision, then looked at Zhi Zhi, "Xiao Zhi, then you can make another trip."

"Find out the Tian family's plan and what we need to do."

"Okay, I'll go right away." Robber Zhi made a gesture, and then left the house in a hurry.

The four remaining people in the room looked at each other and fell into silence, with different moods.

Xue Nu and Master Ben felt a little aggrieved, and found themselves in a dilemma for no apparent reason. It seemed that they had traveled all the way just to be a knife for others.

Xiaoyaozi only felt that it was a pity. If Zhao Gao had deliberately promoted this assassination, the chance of success would be low.

Gai Nie... had no trouble in his heart.

Ge Nie really doesn't care whether Ying Zheng dies or not.

He lives to hold on to the empire and hold it together for the time being, but he is only holding on to it.

When he died, it was nothing more than causing a rotten piece of wood to completely shatter.

Of course, the more important thing is that Ge Nie really does not think that Ying Zheng will be assassinated... Although his security problem is not optimistic, he has been assassinated not once or twice.

But there is no need to emphasize these ideas to the Mohists.

Anyway... although the success rate of assassinating Ying Zheng is not high, the risk seems to be about the same.

It's not like Jing Ke's assassination attempt with no return. Even if he fails, he still has a chance to escape.
