Therefore, Yan Lingji was very interested and motivated in doing things with Yang Chong, especially doing bad things.
"No hurry, no hurry. Now is not the best time. If we act directly, Ji Wuye will only point the spearhead at us. We have to wait for an opportunity, an opportunity for another party to intervene. Then we can take action and hide our existence perfectly, so that the two parties will only suspect each other and fight each other. Then we can reap the benefits." Yang Chong said to Yan Lingji who was eager to try.
"So we came out tonight just to scout the area?" Yan Lingji asked. As a former killer, Yan Lingji was absolutely professional and even knew the term "scout the area".
"Smart, now we know where the things are, let's go back to sleep." Yang Chong said.
"Just sleeping?" Yan Lingji raised her eyebrows and looked at Yang Chong with a smile.
"Sleep with me." Yang Chong picked up Yan Lingji and went in the direction they came from. In this rainy night, it was so nice to sleep with the fragrant Yan Lingji in his arms. Who would want to go out to work?
"I can't sleep, I can't sleep." Yan Lingji bumped her forehead against Yang Chong's chest, full of smugness and teasing.
"Anyway, the duck is already in the pot and cooked, it can't run away." Yang Chong said indifferently. Some things need to be done step by step. Although it feels good to get it done in one step, the exploration step by step is also endless aftertaste.
When Yang Chong and Yan Lingji returned home and fell asleep, Xinzheng was already shaking in the middle of the night.
During the escort of the military pay of 100,000 gold, they unexpectedly encountered ghost soldiers. The military pay of 100,000 gold disappeared in the rainy night and was robbed by the ghost soldiers.
The news soon reached the palace of King Han. King Han An, who had fallen into a deep sleep in the arms of his wife, paced anxiously in his bedroom wearing an outer robe. Whether the soldiers were ghosts or not was secondary. The military pay of 100,000 gold was of no small importance.
Today's South Korea is no longer the same as it used to be. In order to maintain an army that can protect itself, South Korea's wealth has almost been exhausted. A military pay of 100,000 gold is South Korea's military expenditure for two years, involving all the expenses of the soldiers' military pay, military rations, and military equipment. It is impossible for South Korea to gather 100,000 gold in a short period of time. If there are any changes in the army because of this, King Han An could not imagine what consequences would be caused if the Qin army took this opportunity to attack.
The more Han Wangan thought about it, the more uneasy he became, and sweat began to appear between his fat white flesh.
"Have Ji Wuye and the others finally lost their patience?" Han Wangan muttered to himself, looking even more worried.
The ghost soldiers robbing the pay were just to deceive the ignorant people. Although King Han An was not particularly wise and brave, he was able to stand out among his brothers and ascend to the throne of King Han not because of his fat body.
In the entire country of Korea, who had the courage and ability to face an opponent with a military pay of 100,000 gold? The only person King An of Han could think of was General Ji Wuye.
"Isn't the position of a general enough for you? Do you have to go this far?" Han Wangan pondered and found sadly that in such a big country like Han, he couldn't find anyone who could restrain Ji Wuye.
In the General's Mansion, Ji Wuye listened to the reports from his men with a smug look on his face. One hundred thousand gold, such a huge amount of money, was an astronomical figure even for him, a general of Korea. You know, even though Feicuihu was known as the richest man in Korea, all his properties added up were less than half of this one hundred thousand gold.
With this 100,000 gold, he could do many things, whether it was for pleasure, or to win people's hearts and expand his power, it would be enough to increase the power of the General's Mansion again, or even completely replace the King of Han's Palace.
Xinzheng was restless in the middle of the night. A storm swept across the whole Xinzheng as the wind and rain stopped in the early morning.
The combination of ghost soldiers and 100,000 gold made it impossible for the news to be suppressed. What's more, there were people behind the scenes fanning the flames, trying to completely put the blame for the robbery of military pay on the dead Zheng soldiers, letting the ghosts take the blame for the living.
The court was also in an uproar because of the incident of the ghost soldiers robbing the pay. In the end, the case was taken over by Zhang Kaidi's disciple Nei Shiling. At the same time, the entire Xinzheng was ordered to be under martial law, and any discussion of the incident was strictly prohibited.
However, these had nothing to do with Yang Chong. He was still napping on the palace tower of King Han's Palace, pondering the practice of Fuxi Shentianxiang.
But some people could not sit still. A princess who thought she was very wise, after more than half a month of analysis and deduction, finally came up with a brilliant plan, a self-righteous plan.
"Shouldn't you kneel down when you see this princess?" On the palace wall, Honglian, in a pink dress, pinched her slender waist, her little mouth moving rapidly as she spoke arrogant words.
This was the good idea she had thought of in the past half month, to use her authority as a princess to mess with Yang Chong, the person who made her father angry.
Yang Chong looked at Honglian in front of him speechlessly, his eyes full of concern for the silly child among neighbors.
"Hey, what's with that look in your eyes? Didn't you hear what I said?" Yang Chong's eyes, which seemed to hide sympathy, made it difficult for Honglian to maintain her ferocity.
What kind of look was that? Why did I feel a little ashamed? Honglian pondered, her expression dazed for a moment, but soon returned to her vicious expression again, as if she felt she was not majestic enough, and she puffed up her already round little face, making it even rounder.
Yang Chong stroked his forehead with his hand, speechless at such a silly child. Kneel down? How could that be possible?
"Hurry up and kneel down, or I will punish you for disrespect." The red lotus pointed at Yang Chong. The look in Yang Chong's eyes that showed concern for the silly child had made her unable to tolerate it anymore.
Isn't he just Ji Wuye's lackey? When did even lackeys become so arrogant?
"It's time to go off duty now. Princess, you can have fun by yourself. I'm taking my leave now." Yang Chong was too lazy to pay attention to a little brat and jumped off the city wall directly.
"Hey, don't jump." Honglian was shocked when she saw this and hurried forward. She came to make things difficult for Yang Chong, not to take his life. If Yang Chong died, how could she make things difficult for him?
However, Honglian did not see the scene she had imagined. She only saw Yang Chong landing steadily on the ground. He took a step forward, and the ground seemed to shorten under his feet. When his foot landed, he was already several feet away. On the long imperial road in front of the palace gate, only residual shadows appeared. In a blink of an eye, Yang Chong's figure could no longer be seen.
"Are Ji Wuye's lackeys so powerful?" Honglian stared in amazement at Yang Chong, who had disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye. He actually has such martial arts skills?
Honglian knows martial arts, although her skills are only mediocre. That's only because she is a girl and has not spent much time on martial arts. However, her talent for martial arts is far beyond that of ordinary people, and she is also aware of learning martial arts. When she saw Yang Chong's almost supernatural martial arts skills, she was shocked, but couldn't help feeling a desire.
I also want to learn this kind of martial arts. Honglian's eyes flickered. At this moment, while she was thinking about making things difficult for Yang Chong, she already had other thoughts.
Zi Lan Xuan was still bustling. Although King Han's 100,000 gold had been robbed, it could not affect the pleasure-seeking of the wealthy people in Xinzheng. After Yang Chong left King Han's palace, he went to Zi Lan Xuan in the same direction as usual.
"Where is your sister Zi Nu?" Yang Chong, who was still being received by Nong Yu, took the initiative to ask about Zi Nu.
"Sister feels a little unwell today." Nong Yu said to Yang Chong as she closed the door.
"Are you feeling unwell? Are there any special days in a month?" Yang Chong's eyebrows jumped and he asked jokingly.
"Brother Yang, you shouldn't say such things. It's very rude." Nong Yu reminded him softly, feeling a little hot on her face. It was inappropriate to discuss the most private topic between women with a man.
"What's the big deal? Normal women can't escape this problem. However, Zi Nu might be more than just that." Yang Chong laughed. He didn't care much about this kind of thing. Besides, Zi Nu might not really be feeling unwell. Maybe she is doing alchemy now?
Thinking about the first and most important clue Han Fei obtained when he solved the case of the ghost soldiers' robbery was the piece of water-melting gold refined by Zi Nu, Yang Chong even guessed that if Zi Nu was fast enough, she would have left Zi Lan Xuan and gone to attend the farmers' meeting. She would be waiting there for Han Fei, the ninth son of the Korean state chosen by Wei Zhuang. Of course, he might also be the person she chose.
"Why did Brother Yang say that?" Nanyue was shocked when she heard that. Although she had already regarded Yang Chong as a good friend, the secret of Zilanxuan could not be known by Yang Chong.
"Forget it, forget it. I won't ask about the secrets of your Zi Lan Xuan. Come on, let's continue with yesterday's song." Yang Chong didn't want to compete with Nong Yu, so he went straight to the point.
Chapter 103: Clouds move in all directions, Yang Chong is also the protagonist
"Brother Yang, do you like Sister Zinu very much?" Nanyue asked Yang Chong while making tea for him and taking a break.
Before, every time Yang Chong came to Zi Lan Xuan, he would show up at Zi Nu's place. But today, Yang Chong just casually asked about Zi Nu and nothing else. This behavior surprised Nong Yu, who had always been observing him.
"I'm afraid there is no man who would not like a woman like Zi Nu." Facing Nanyue's question, Yang Chong did not hide anything and admitted it directly.
"Then you today..." Nanyue asked in confusion. It seemed that Yang Chong had no intention of going to see Sister Zi Nu today, which was a bit abnormal.
Could it be that Brother Yang was saddened by Sister Zi Nu's rejection, so he gave up? Thinking of this possibility, Nong Yu felt empty in her heart, and she actually felt a kind of excitement that made her a little scared.
"We have to give her some time, and some things are better off too much or too little," said Yang Chong.
"Too much is as bad as too little?" Nanyue was puzzled.
"I just used random punches to kill the master. Your sister Zi Nu had never seen such a method from me, so she was confused for a moment. Wasn't Zi Nu very cute before?" Yang Chong recalled the embarrassment of Zi Nu time and time again before. She was really very cute.
"Sister Zi Nu is indeed flustered in front of Brother Yang. I have never seen Sister Zi Nu so flustered." Nong Yu nodded. It was the first time she saw Sister Zi Nu like that, and it was all because of Yang Chong.
"But things are different now. Zi Nu has regained her composure. If I go there again, I will only see the Zi Nu that the guests of Zi Lan Xuan can also see. That kind of Zi Nu is meaningless." Yang Chong said with a look of regret.
"Are you going to give up, Brother Yang?" Nanyue asked for some reason.
"It's not giving up, it's just that the first step has been completed, and the second step requires a different strategy." Yang Chong explained.
"Brother Yang, are you treating the pursuit of Sister Zi Nu as a war, and have you changed your strategy? But, what is this first step that Brother Yang is talking about? What is the second step?" Nong Yu had no thoughts in her mind now, only curiosity.
"The first step is to leave a mark of Yang Chong in your sister Zi Nu's heart. Although it won't have any effect, it can guarantee one thing." Yang Chong approached Nong Yu and said mysteriously.
"Promise what?" Nong Yu was nervous. The distance between her and Yang Chong was too close at this moment, but in order to know the secret, she had no choice but to do this. Besides, she didn't hate the aura of Yang Chong.
"Make sure Zi Nu doesn't fall in love with someone else in a short period of time. Make sure she won't be attracted to other men for a considerable period of time. Increase her resistance to men. If this is guaranteed, I will have a chance in the future." Yang Chong said.
Yang Chong had never expected to win over Zi Nu, a knowledgeable woman, by relying on the previous somewhat clumsy means. Zi Nu was not an inexperienced girl. Although those means could make her confused for a while, she would be able to quickly regain her rationality and composure. And the rational and stable Zi Nu was not so easy to win over.
Therefore, Yang Chong’s real purpose was not to make Zi Nu fall in love with him, but to prevent Zi Nu from falling in love with another person easily. As long as he could do this, Yang Chong would have enough time to do the work slowly and carefully until he could completely win over Zi Nu.
"Brother Yang is so cunning." Nong Yu said helplessly. She had already understood what was going on, but she couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.
"Since ancient times, deep love cannot be retained, only routines can win people's hearts. Things between men and women are mostly like this." Yang Chong said to himself, with a proud look on his face, but he did not notice the slight change in Nongyu's expression.
"Brother Yang, aren't you worried that I will tell Sister Zinu these words?" asked Nong Yu.
"do not worry."
"why?"
"Because you are Nanyue!"
"What's the reason?"
At this time, Zi Nu was indeed not in Zi Lan Xuan. If Yang Chong rushed in rashly, he would only expose this fact, but why did Yang Chong need to do this? He knew what he should know. If he rashly exposed Zi Nu's details, it would only make her more wary of herself.
The same city, Qianlong Hall.
Situ Wanli, a disciple of the Farmer family, as the head of Qianlong Hall, invited distinguished guests from the southeast, northwest, northeast and southwest to gather here in the name of Yibao Banquet. Among them are Yan Dan, the prince of Yan State, Touman, the young master of the wolf tribe in the north, Yan Chunjun of Yan State, Jing Ke, the swordsman of Wei State, Han Fei, the ninth son of Han State, and Zi Nu, the owner of Zilanxuan.
These people were either local dignitaries, or wealthy people, or people of high status. Situ Wanli was able to bring them together, which showed his remarkable ability. Of course, he was also the most skilled in business among all the disciples of the farming family.
Under the chairmanship of Situ Wanli, the Yibao Banquet went smoothly. Everyone got what they wanted, and Situ Wanli also achieved his goal.
He took the trouble to gather so many people together, not only because of the need to run Qianlongtang, but also because he needed such an opportunity to contact people he could contact, hoping to use their power to kill someone.
Because Yang Chong has already appeared in Xinzheng.
Originally, it was Situ Wanli who first discovered Xiliu Village, and it was he who reported the news of Xiliu Village back to Daze Mountain. However, the people surnamed Tian from the farming family excluded him, a disciple from another surname, when they took action.
At that time, Situ Wanli was still very indignant. He felt that Tian Meng, Tian Hu and others were eating in an ugly way and were trying to snatch the credit that should have belonged to him.
But when Tian Meng, Tian Hu and others disappeared without a trace, Situ Wanli could only be thankful that he did not participate in the mission of Xiliu Village, otherwise it would not only be Tian Meng, Tian Hu and others who disappeared, but also him.
Who could have thought that among the remaining few people of the Lu family there was actually a master who was able to kill Tian Meng and his men. As a result, Yang Chong's name appeared on the desks of the senior management of the Nong family.
The deaths of Tian Meng and others also made the farmers completely certain that the inheritance of the Lu family was in Yang Chong. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for Yang Chong to possess martial arts far superior to Tian Meng and others at the age of twenty.
Whether it was the blood feud of Tian Meng and others, or the inheritance of the six tribes of Emperor Yan, Yang Chong became the person that the Nong family must kill.
But after the incident in Xiliu Village, Yang Chong disappeared and completely disappeared from the sight of the world. The Nong family always has thousands of disciples, but they cannot find Yang Chong and are powerless to do anything about him.
Until recently, Yang Chong appeared again, and he showed up in Xinzheng in a swaggering manner. He defected to the Han general Ji Wuye and became a small Sima Gate commander.
Situ Wanli didn't know why Yang Chong dared to show up in Xinzheng so brazenly, but he knew that his chance had come.
Situ Wanli knew very well that as long as he could capture Yang Chong, the inheritance of the six tribes of the Yan Emperor would be his. Even if he could not keep the inheritance of the six tribes of the Yan Emperor, but handed it over to the Hero Chief and the Six Sages, it would also be a great achievement.
Therefore, after learning the news about Yang Chong, Situ Wanli's first thought was how to capture Yang Chong, but he knew his own strength. In terms of martial arts alone, he was not as good as Tian Hu, but Tian Hu and others died at the hands of Yang Chong. He did not think that his martial arts could defeat Yang Chong.
Therefore, Situ Wanli decided to borrow the power of others to take down Yang Chong, and the Qianlongtang he ran just provided him with the opportunity.
In order to resist the pressure from Zhao, Yan had to form an alliance with Qin. The condition was to send its own crown prince Yan Dan to Qin as a hostage. Yan Chunjun, the king's uncle, was the person in charge of this matter. Therefore, Yan Dan and Yan Chunjun, who were thousands of miles away, appeared in Xinzheng.
As for Jing Ke, he was also a local swordsman. He learned from General Gongsun Yu of the State of Wei. Although he was young, he was extremely skilled in swordsmanship. After the State of Wei was conquered by the State of Qin, he wandered around the countries and made a great name for himself in just a few years.
They are all the people that Situ Wanli is preparing to borrow strength from.
Even Touman, the young master of the wolf clan, has a group of wolf warriors and strange people under his command.
If he could gather these people together, Situ Wanli believed that no matter how powerful Yang Chong was, he would not be able to escape his clutches.
"Master Situ has kept us here. Could it be that there are some rare treasures that he hasn't taken out yet?" The humorous Jing Ke teased Situ Wanli who had kept him here.
"Master Jing Ke guessed correctly. I really have a rare treasure from ancient times." At the Yibao Banquet where several people had already left, Situ Wanli said with a smile.
