Through Time Chapter 40

“Sir Zhao, since this one is after the king of the country, he will certainly not go back on his word.”

At this time Xiang Yu looked at Tian Abandon and said.

A ruler’s words are not a joke in this era.

But Zhao Lang, who had seen many oaths treated as farts in his previous life, thought he had heard it wrong.

At that moment Tian Abandoned glanced around, knowing that the other party had no way out, and took the initiative to say that

“All put your bows down.”

At once, all the guards in the courtyard, put down the bows in their hands.

Seeing this, Zhao Lang also then relaxed his wrist, but still squeezed the back of his opponent’s neck with one hand.

“Now that you are sure of my identity, you don’t need to doubt what I said before.”

Tian Qi spoke at this time.

Wang Li and Xiang Yu were both somewhat impressed after hearing this, and the two of them looked towards Zhao Lang.

Seeing the two looking over, Zhao Lang froze for a moment, these two just believed in it?

As soon as he let go, I was afraid that he would immediately be shot into a sieve.

Seeming to see Zhao Lang’s worry, Xiang Yu said that

“The promise of the king is as heavy as a mountain.”

Zhao Lang felt that it would be a real joke to put his life and trust his son on someone keeping his word.

So he laughed and said.

“I am also a promise, let us go first, and I will keep you safe.”

And Tian Abandoned returned and

“I am the queen of the kingdom, and I swear by the name of the king, who are you to do so?”

On one side, Xiang Yu hesitated and said to Tian Abandon that

“Duke Zhao is really qualified.”

“Now that things have come to a head, Duke Zhao, you don’t need to hide anything, I know you are a descendant of the royal family of Zhao.”

Before Xiang Yu’s words fell, Tian Qi snapped out in surprise to

“What?”

Zhao Lang himself was confused, since when did I become a descendant of Zhao?

“What are your credentials?”

Tian Qi asked after him.

“My youngest uncle saw a token from the royal family of Zhao in the Duke of Zhao’s stately home.”

“As for how I can guarantee that my words are true or false.”

“Your Majesty, please see.”

When Xiang Yu finished speaking, he took out a jade pendant from his bosom.

“This is… The royal token of Chu!”

Tian Qi looked at the jade pendant and shouted in surprise.

A burst of brilliant light erupted from his eyes and he said that

“Today Qi, Zhao and Chu are gathered together, this is an arrangement from heaven!”

“In that case, gentlemen, why don’t we abandon our former grudges and join hands to fight against the tyrannical Qin!”

“If we join forces, we will be able to overthrow the tyrannical Qin!”

As Zhao Lang listened, an extremely absurd feeling rose in his heart.

A few of them were still in a state where you were dead and I was alive before.

Now they were actually thinking of working together?

Seeing that Zhao Lang did not say anything, Tian Abandoned spoke again and

“Sir Zhao, I know you’re angry about what happened before.”

“It is true that I was wrong in this matter, but it is also true that Duke Zhao has hidden a little too deep, no wonder I didn’t even find out about you.”

“Sir Zhao, I will compensate you double for the goods you lost before, what do you think?”

Hearing this, Xiang Yu at the side actually revealed a look of admiration before looking at Zhao Lang with a hopeful expression.

As long as Zhao Lang nodded his head, this would be a done deal!

Even Wang Li seemed to think that this compensation was reasonable.

To them, the life of a nobleman was the life.

The common people were nothing more than goods.

Tian abandoned himself to suffer such a great loss, and now he actually took the initiative to compensate Zhao Lang, which was already extremely sincere.

Just as the other side did not understand why Zhao Lang did not believe in the oath, Zhao Lang could not understand why the other side treated human lives as goods.

After thinking about it, it was probably because now Chen Sheng and Wu Guang had not yet said the words that

“A king, a vassal, and a general would rather have a son!”

Zhao Lang shook his head at this time and said that

“I can’t trust a human trafficker.”

Hearing these words, Tian Abandon’s face instantly turned red.

Just then, a pale figure stepped out and

“A great man has no choice but to engage in lowly deeds in order to achieve greatness!”

“Uncle!”

Seeing the old man, Tian Qi cried out in surprise.

The white-haired old man still had a white cloth wrapped around his head at the moment.

“Since Sir Zhao doesn’t care to deal with us, you and I will each take a step back in today’s matter.”

“I will see you out of the village in peace and leave all the bows here, and you will release them at the gate, is that good?”

Hearing this proposal, Zhao Lang’s heart was slightly moved, this was indeed a good proposal.

So nodding his head, he said.

“Yes, you guys first remove all the bow strings from the crossbows! Then put all the bows here.”

“I will never show mercy if I see a crossbow.”

The white-haired old man nodded, and soon, all of them removed the bowstrings from their bows.

Before letting a few people go, the white-haired old man said that

“I want you to swear on the name of the king of Zhao!”

Without the slightest hesitation, Zhao Lang took the oath as the other man had requested.

Only then did several people carefully walk outside.

Both sides focused their attention on each other, and all of them did not notice.

In the darkness, some figures flashed from time to time.

At this moment, on the roof, several men in black were surrounding two dark figures.

Seeing the people below slowly exiting the courtyard, one of the black shadows only spoke to

“Your Majesty, the other side has sent someone to the back of Gongzi Lang’s path.”

“Once Gong Zi Lang releases them, the other side will surround them.”

“The Black Ice Guards have already arrived at various locations, so as soon as you give the order, we can snipe them to death! To keep Gong Zi Lang safe.”

These two black shadows in the middle were none other than Qin Shi Huang and Zhao Gao.

Qin Shi Huang spoke indifferently and

“There is no hurry, I want to see that Long’er is going to be the one who breaks his word.”

“Or to be a pedantic man.”

To kill Tian Qi is to break one’s word; not to kill is to be pedantic.

Zhao Gao instantly revealed a bitter smile, it had come to such a life-and-death situation, and this sire of his, actually still thought about the test.

“Go, follow.”

Qin Shi Huang’s words had just fallen.

The two black-clad men beside him then put one hand on him, and the three of them floated down.

The others in black followed instantly.

The guards who remained in the courtyard were also instantly killed.

At that moment, everyone arrived at the entrance of the manor.

Zhao Long led Tian Abandon to a corner of a dark place and made sure he could leap up in one go.

“Sir Zhao, please let the people go.”

The white-haired old man spoke, while the hand behind his back moved.

At once the guards at the very back ran towards the courtyard they had just been in, where the bows were all over the place.

Zhao Lang told Wang Li and Xiang Yu to get ready, then with a push to Tian Qi, he turned around and went up the wall behind him.

“Catch the family head!”

The steward rushed up with his men at this time and caught Tian Abandon with one hand.

Qin Shi Huang in the dark saw this scene, but shook his head faintly.

Zhao Lang’s choice had disappointed him somewhat.

Qin Shi Huang spoke at that moment.

“Leave that hypocrite behind, and the rest of you, all of you, be put to death.”

And so in the next instant countless crossbow arrows fell from the sky!

The white-haired old man did not even utter a single word.

Before he was pierced through the heart by ten thousand arrows.

The battle was completely lopsided.

Qin Shi Huang, however, was not the least bit surprised that

The guards in this courtyard were even stronger.

Facing the strongest guard of the Great Qin, the Black Ice Guard.

Plus, the Black Ice Guards were countless times better equipped than them with their presence of mind.

It was only normal for them to be completely overwhelmed.

Just as quickly, Zhao Gao walked away with an odd look on his face.

“Your Majesty, that hypocrite is dead.”

Qin Shi Huang’s face was cold as he said that

“Whoever disobeyed the order, go and receive the punishment yourself.”

He wanted to ask the other side a few more questions.

Instead, Zhao Gao spoke at that moment to

“Your Majesty, see for yourself.”

When he finished speaking, several black ice guards brought Tian Abandon’s corpse over, and Qin Shi Huang’s face faintly froze.

Then a smile appeared.

On Tian Abandon’s neck was a faint line of blood.
