The cell where Han Fei was located belonged to a special isolation area. He was the only one in this area, which was quiet and uneventful.
Not far away nearby.
Si Yuan restrained all his aura and crouched patiently.
As time goes by, the cool nights are getting darker, and in Xianyang City, the lanterns are starting to come on, and people are still coming and going.
Even inside the prison cells, torches were lit for illumination.
The light flames danced, the light and shadows twisted, and the reflections of the surrounding objects looked extremely strange and strange, as if they were in a strange world.
The lighting range of each torch is extremely limited.
Such a situation makes the entire area inside the prison passage flicker with light and darkness. It looks even more eerie and weird.
…
…
Until almost late at night.
From the passage inside Xianyang Prison, waves of steady, powerful and confident footsteps could be heard.
"Tap, step, step,...!"
The sound of footsteps came closer and closer, walking calmly.
It gives people a kind of flattering and unfazed charm.
Hearing an unusual sound, the peace was broken. Si Yuan, who had closed his eyes and fell asleep, quietly opened his eyes and turned to look in the direction of the sound.
Through the intertwined light area of light and dark, it was clearly visible that a young figure was approaching.
He knew who it was.
This person is none other than Li Si, who is currently serving as chief historian within the Qin State. He and Han Fei are fellow disciples of each other, and they have a very good relationship with Han Fei.
However, due to different political choices, the two are now in a confrontational situation.
"Li Si is here, and the Yin Yang family is not far away."
Si Yuan calmed his mind and the ancient well remained calm.
She watched quietly as Li Si approached with a small tray in his hand. On the small vermilion wooden tray, there was an extremely exquisite wine glass placed.
The round wine glass contained fragrant wine as red as blood.
As Li Si approached.
Han Fei, who was sitting in the cell doing nothing, also heard the noise and couldn't help but open his eyes and look in the direction of the cell door.
Not long after, the familiar and young figure of Li Si stood at the door of the cell.
"Brother, I'm here to see you." Li Si stood outside the cell holding a small tray with poisoned wine, staring at Han Fei inside the cell, and said with a calm smile: "Looking back on those years, when we two senior brothers parted,
Senior brother then advised me not to hold back."
"If you hold back on your senior brother, it will be an insult to your senior brother."
"Si is well aware that his level of knowledge is not as good as that of his senior brother. Therefore, he keeps in mind all the words that his senior brother has ever said."
"In the face of senior brother, we must go all out."
"Only in this way can we show respect and love for senior brother. I wonder if senior brother is satisfied?"
"Yes, that's true!" Han Fei looked at Li Si outside the cell door, smiled elegantly and confidently, and praised: "You are much better now than before."
"If you really hold back on me, senior brother, I will be really angry."
Recalling the past experiences of studying together, Han Fei sighed secretly, with a trace of reminiscence in his eyes and a sigh in his tone.
"Unconsciously, so many years have passed."
"Looking back at the past years, all kinds of experiences seem like yesterday's flowers, so clear and short-lived. When I wake up, I know that they have long been like passing clouds, drifting away in the wind."
"For the rest of my life, I will just live in the memories of the past."
When Li Si heard this, his junior brother understood it, and he laughed and said: "Senior brother's magnanimity and broadmindedness really make Si admire him endlessly."
Have a brief chat.
Li Si placed the small tray in his hand on the raised steps on the fence outside the cell, then personally picked up the glass of poisonous wine with both hands and stretched forward.
Respectfully handed it to Han Fei inside the cell.
"Senior brother, this is the king's wish."
"Please accept it, senior brother!"
"Okay!" Han Fei nodded slightly, took the initiative to reach out his hands, took the wine glass that Li Si handed over respectfully, and praised loudly: "The wine glass is beautiful, I like it very much."
He picked up the wine glass with his right hand, closed his eyes, and took a serious sniff of the mellow wine.
"Pure smell, mellow and long-lasting."
"At least it is a rare wine that has been stored in cellars for more than a hundred years. Looking at the entire Central Plains, few people are qualified to taste such wine."
Opening his eyes again, Han Fei lowered his head and stared at the fragrant wine in the glass.
I couldn't help but admire it again.
"The color is like blood, clear and translucent."
“Very suitable for the occasion!”
"Brother, please don't let down the king's kindness." Li Si bowed slightly to Han Fei, picked up the tray again, and said calmly: "Li Si takes leave."
"Go slowly without seeing me off!" Han Fei responded nonchalantly.
Li Si smiled faintly, held the small tray in both hands, turned around and left the place, and the sound of steady and calm footsteps gradually faded away.
Wait until you are completely away from Han Fei's sight and hearing range.
He suddenly turned around again, calmed down, slowed down, approached some distance again, and hid in a dark corner where Han Fei couldn't see.
He wouldn't be at ease unless he saw his senior brother Han Fei drink the poisoned wine with his own eyes.
But observing in secret and leaving head-on gave Han Fei enough face to prevent him from losing even the last trace of his dignity.
Within the field of view.
Inside the cell, Han Fei was holding the wine glass in his right hand, staring blankly.
After a long time.
That elegant and confident smiling face finally showed a trace of undetectable loss and sadness, but more importantly, it was helplessness towards reality.
"I try hard to change all the bad regrets, save Korea, and create a peaceful and prosperous age without war."
"But under the crushing influence of the vast historical trend, my personal power is so slim and weak after all."
Looking at the poisonous wine as red as blood in his hand, Han Fei felt increasingly helpless and sad.
"I have tried to change so much, and I thought I would succeed in achieving what I wanted."
"But under the erosion and crushing force of historical trends, many changes have unknowingly led to the same results again. The only difference is that the way to achieve the results has changed."
"What can be preserved, how much will be left in the end?"
Recall the past and remember the hope.
In the end, all that remains is helplessness with reality.
The cup of fragrant poisonous wine held in Han Fei's right hand began to sway slightly, and ripples rippled on the surface of the bright red wine.
The self-face reflected on the surface of the drink also became slightly distorted and blurred.
"That's all, since there's nothing you can do to save yourself, let's just leave."
"Choose another way to accompany you."
Han Fei held up the exquisite wine glass with both hands and was about to drink it in one gulp.
From the nearby dark passage, a gloomy and strange figure suddenly flew out. It was like a ghost, flying out of thin air without touching the ground.
He quickly came to Han Fei's side and waved his right hand.
