2. Nie Zheng, a chivalrous man in the Warring States Period, was born in the south (now southeast of Jiyuan, Henan Province), and was as famous as Ren Xia. He was one of The Four Assassins in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Nie Zheng, a young chivalrous man, took killing as his career, took refuge in his mother and sister (now Shandong) and took slaughter as his career. Yan Zhongzi, a doctor of the Han Dynasty, fled Puyang because of his disagreement with Han. He was famous as a chivalrous man and paid a huge sum of money to celebrate his mother's birthday. He became friends with Zheng and asked him for revenge. After mourning for his mother's death for three years, Nie Zheng recalled Yan Zhongzi's kindness to meet him and went to Yangzhai, the capital of North Korea, alone. With the help of Bai Hong, he assassinated Xia Lei on the steps, and then killed dozens of Xia Lei's guards. Afraid of implicating her sister who looks similar, she ruined her face with a sword, gouged her eyes and committed suicide by caesarean section.
3. Yu rang, Ji surname, Bi. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Jin people were the officials of the State of Jin. In the 22nd year of the Jin Dynasty (453 BC), Zhao, Han and Wei joined forces to attack the Zhi family in the battle of Jinyang, and Zhi was defeated and killed. In order to avenge Master Zhi, Yu Rang painted himself with paint, swallowed charcoal to make him speechless, hid under the bridge, attempted to stab him to death, and was arrested. When he died, he obtained Zhao Xiangzi's clothes, drew his sword and cut his clothes to show his revenge, and then committed suicide with his sword, leaving a historical allusion that "a scholar dies for a confidant, and a woman loves herself".
4. Jing Ke, surnamed Jiang, surnamed Qing ("Jing" sounded like "Qing" in ancient times). At the end of the Warring States period, he was a famous assassin during the Warring States period. After Qin destroyed Zhao, the soldiers pointed to the southern border of Yan, and Taizi Dan was so frightened that he decided to send Jing Ke into Qin to stab the king of Qin. Jing Ke dedicated the head of Fan, a rebel of Qin State, to Taizi Dan, and the map of Yan Du Kang to the king of Qin, and assassinated him with a camera. Prince Taizi Dan could not bear to kill Fan, so Jing Ke had to meet Fan privately and tell the truth. Van Yuqi committed suicide to fulfill Jing Ke.
In 227 BC, Jing Ke came to the State of Qin with the map of Yan Du Kang and Fan's head to assassinate the king of Qin. Before he left, Yan Taizi Dan and Gao Jianli saw Jing Ke off at the Yishui River. The scene is very tragic. "The wind blows and the water cools, and the strong men are gone forever", which is a poem sung by Jing Ke when he left. After Jing Ke and Qin Wuyang entered Qin, the king of Qin summoned them in Xianyang Palace. After Fan presented his head, he presented a map of Du Kang (now Zhuoxian, Yixian and Gu 'an in Hebei). Jing Ke saw that the dagger was pitiful, and he missed the opportunity. After being seriously wounded by the sword of the king of Qin, he was killed by the guards of Qin.
