Chapter 65: The Biting Cold of Yan State

Guo Kai said with a proud look on his face: "I have thought of this a long time ago."

"Then we can ask them to go outside the city to find two bodies of refugees, put them in the Misty Rain Pavilion and then set it on fire."

"By then, the entire Misty Rain Pavilion will be burned down. Even if someone wants to investigate, they won't be able to trace it back to you, young master."

Gongzi Qian was happy but also a little surprised and said, "I didn't expect you to be so smart."

"With just you, Guo Kai, I am more powerful than a thousand troops!"

Lu Yuan walked out of the shadows wearing a bronze mask.

"What a pair of Crouching Dragon and Phoenix!"

Gongzi Qian and Guo Kai were obviously drunk and their reactions were obviously slow.

Faced with this stranger, he did not call the guards outside immediately.

Instead, he squinted his eyes, trying to see Lu Yuan clearly.

"How dare you! Who are you?"

"How dare you break in here and eavesdrop without my order?"

Guo Kai staggered to his feet, walked over to Lu Yuan and patted his shoulder.

"You... you have good taste. You can actually see that our young master has the appearance of a dragon and a phoenix."

"When I become the prime minister, I will accept you as my retainer!"

Waves of biting cold emanated from Lu Yuan.

The temperature in the entire room dropped instantly, and Guo Kai woke up with a start.

I wanted to scream but it was too late. My feet started to freeze quickly and soon spread to my upper body.

Before he could even utter the first word, his mouth was sealed, leaving only half of his head and nose to breathe.

A pair of eyes turned, with endless fear in them.

When Gongzi Qian saw this scene, he kicked his feet and shouted while backing away.

"Come……"

Lu Yuan’s figure continued to grow larger and larger, and appeared in front of him in the blink of an eye, covering his mouth with his hand.

A sharp ice spike condensed at the fingertips of his left hand and pressed against Gongzi Qian's neck.

The skin was pierced and two drops of blood flowed out.

Lu Yuan made a silencing gesture and said, "Shh..., don't talk! Otherwise, someone will die."

Gongzi Qian stammered and didn't know what he was saying, but he nodded frantically.

Lu Yuan took out two poisonous heart pills that he had prepared in advance and force-fed one of them to Gongzi Qian.

He turned around and thawed Guo Kai's body, then stuffed the remaining one into his mouth.

Gongzi Qian lay on the ground with a look of fear on his face and raised his head and asked, "What did you give us to eat?"

Lu Yuan said calmly: "It's just a little poison to make you obedient."

Guo Kai finally reacted and knelt down in front of Lu Yuan.

"Please spare my life, hero."

"Do you want to rob money or rape?"

"We all know the rules of the martial arts world and we will never let you return empty-handed."

"As for money, we have plenty. As long as you don't kill us, we can give it to you."

"We won't rape you, but we can give you many beautiful girls, and you will definitely be satisfied."

It is true that "a cowardly person can bend and stretch himself".

No wonder the State of Zhao was eventually destroyed.

If it were not for the existence of the "God of War" Guo Kai, Zhao State would be the biggest obstacle on Qin's way eastward.

Even if they finally defeated Zhao, they would suffer heavy losses and would probably not have the strength to attack other countries in a short period of time.

The State of Zhao bordered the Xiongnu to the north, and the two sides were at war all year round.

Since King Wuling of Zhao carried out the reform of wearing Hu clothing and riding and shooting, the combat effectiveness of Zhao soldiers has soared rapidly, and they are probably not weaker even when compared with the elite troops of the old Qin people.

In addition, there are famous generals like Lian Po and Li Mu, one is good at defense and the other is good at attack.

It’s a pity that since ancient times, military generals have generally been no match for treacherous ministers in terms of scheming.

Originally, as long as Lian Po and Li Mu led the troops, the Qin State would be forced to be cautious.

Keep the State of Zhao safe.

However, these two national stone pillars were replaced one after another due to Guo Kai's slander.

Lu Yuan said: "I don't want money or beautiful girls."

"You only need to do two things. First, don't cause trouble for Yanyu Pavilion again."

Gongzi Qian subconsciously wanted to refuse, but saw Guo Kai winking at him frantically.

He nodded repeatedly after realizing it!

Life is at stake.

Lu Yuan continued, "Secondly, when you become the King of Zhao, I need you to help me find a bronze treasure box."

"Someone will tell you the specific situation when the time comes."

"Remember, I don't want a fourth person to know what happened tonight."

"Be obedient, and someone will send you the antidote every once in a while. I can even help you sit on the throne of Zhao. Otherwise, it will be a hard life."

Lu Yuan injected a strand of true energy into the bodies of each of them.

As the sound disappeared into the room.

This strand of true energy will activate the poisonous insects in their bodies late tonight.

Lu Yuan knew very well that people like Gongzi Qian and Guo Kai would not cry until they saw the coffin, so he did not let them feel the pain of the poison taking effect.

They have no real fear.

Although the true energy will only last for a few minutes, it is enough to deal with these two weaklings.

This unforgettable pain, even if it is short, is enough for them to remember it for a lifetime.

in the room.

The young master moved outside the mansion.

Lu Yuan looked back and disappeared into the darkness.

Using poison to control a prince of a country, I'm afraid he is the only one who dares to do such a thing.

There are people among the hundreds of schools of thought who are able to sneak into the young master's mansion quietly.

But almost no one dared to do such a thing. Firstly, these people had wealthy families and powerful businesses. Once such things were exposed, it would inevitably cause a shock throughout the State of Zhao.

It might even cause public outrage.

After all, if you can control the prince of Zhao today, can you also control the kings and nobles of their country tomorrow?

Many of the various schools of thought have strongholds in various countries, and these places will inevitably be subjected to retaliatory attacks in the future.

Moreover, this method is very dishonorable. The various schools of thought focus on promoting their own ideas and attach great importance to reputation.

Only Lu Yuan doesn't care much about these.

Anyway, the State of Zhao won’t exist for many more years.

Lu Yuan stayed in Handan, Zhao State for more than a month, handling some matters of the human world branch.

During this period, he met Gongzi Qian and Guo Kai twice. After tasting the poison, he became very obedient.

There is only deep fear of Lu Yuan.

During this period, Lu Yuan also deliberately entered the Zhao royal palace three times.

I just want to find the bronze treasure box of the Blue Dragon and the Seven Stars that belonged to the State of Zhao.

He searched almost everywhere except for the King of Zhao's bedroom and the Zhao State's treasury, which were secretly protected by countless experts.

But nothing was gained.

The remaining two places were too heavily guarded, and even at his current state, it would be impossible for him to enter quietly.

I had to give up temporarily.

……

Outside Handan City.

Yan Lingji, Yue Ji and Xue Nu watched a carriage gradually go away.

He waited until it disappeared before turning back to the city.

The carriage was moving very slowly on the narrow path.

Ke Xin was massaging Lu Yuan's shoulders from behind.

"Master, are we heading to Yan State?"

Lu Yuan nodded.

A few days later.
