Nie Zheng (? - 397 BC), a knight-errant during the Warring States Period, was a native of Zhi, South Korea (now southeast of Jiyuan, Henan Province). He was famous as a knight-errant and one of the four great assassins in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.

Nie Zheng was a young and chivalrous man. Because he killed people and killed people, he, his mother and sister fled to Qi (today's Shandong) to avoid trouble, and made a career out of butchering. Yan Zhongzi, a doctor of Han Dynasty, fled to Puyang because of a feud with Han Xiang Xia Lei (known as a puppet). He heard the name of Zheng Xia and donated a huge sum of money to celebrate his mother's birthday. He became friends with Zheng and asked him to avenge himself. Three years after Nie Zheng waited for his mother's death, he remembered the kindness of Yan Zhongzi. He entered Yangzhai, the capital of Han Dynasty, alone with his sword. With the power of a white rainbow piercing the sun, he assassinated the knights on the steps, and then killed the knights and dozens of guards. people.

Because he was afraid of harming his sister, who looked similar to himself, he destroyed his face with a sword, gouged out his eyes, and committed suicide by caesarean section. His sister searched for her younger brother's body in Han City, cried bitterly over the body, and crashed to death in front of Nie Zheng's body (one theory is that she died suddenly in front of Nie Zheng's body due to excessive grief). His deeds can be found in "Historical Records: Biographies of Assassins".
