The first sentence!
"The Han Capital has fallen."
Just seeing this sentence, a look of joy spread across Ying Zheng's features. The fall of the Han Capital was tantamount to the demise of the state of Han. The road for Qin's eastward expansion was now open.
"This is truly good news."
"It looks like the state of Han is about to be destroyed."
Seeing the joy on Ying Zheng's face, the ministers in the hall immediately understood. Those who could stand in this grand hall were all important officials of Qin, each one astute and well-versed in reading expressions.
Ying Zheng did not put down the military report, but continued to read. As he did, his expression grew even more astonished.
"The commander who breached the city, Capital Commandant Zhao Feng, has been credited with the chief merit in taking the city."
"He slew Han's newly appointed Senior General, Cao Yi, and Chancellor Zhang Ping of Han."
"It's him again!"
