People in the Qin Dynasty, entertained during the Warring States period

Unless Yan Ri tells Donghuang Taiyi about obtaining the Seven Mansions Scroll.

But how could that be possible?

"Mr. Cao Ze?"

Yan Fei opened her mouth slightly, and her voice was very pleasant, just like the song of a lark that he had heard before.

Cao Ze cupped his hands and said, "Greetings, Lord Dong."

Yan Fei was quite surprised that Cao Ze could recognize her. You see, she rarely left the Goddess Peak of Wushan. Many people in the world knew of her existence, but few knew her true face.

However, her purpose in this trip was to attract the attention of various forces, so as to facilitate the Yin-Yang School's overall entry into Qin.

It's no big deal if she gets recognized; in fact, it saves her the trouble of spreading the word.

Unexpectedly, they encountered Cao Ze as soon as they entered the city.

Considering his purpose and his own selfish motives, he simply walked over.

"Sir's 'Snow Maiden Song' is famous throughout the seven kingdoms, and Yanfei has long wanted to meet you."

Cao Ze thought to himself, no wonder everyone says that Consort Yan is love-struck.

What woman who loves poems and songs like "Snow Maiden's Song" doesn't yearn for love?

Especially for a woman like Yanfei who hasn't experienced much of the ways of the world and the hearts of men.

Otherwise, Yan Dan, that unromantic man, wouldn't have been able to take advantage of him.

Behind the veil, the moon goddess slightly narrowed her beautiful, elongated eyes.

She had encountered Yanfei singing "Snow Maiden Song" softly many times, as well as "Three Thousand Worlds" which she considered somewhat too explicit.

However, she had no interest in these poems; she was only interested in Yanfei singing them.

Cao Ze chuckled and said, "Aren't you disappointed to see a hen that lays eggs?"

Yan Fei gently shook her head, her eyes filled with appreciation, and said, "I'm not disappointed at all; on the contrary, it's almost exactly what I imagined."

She had already obtained Cao Ze's portrait through Shao Siming, so she was naturally not disappointed.

Moreover, she not only read "Snow Maiden's Song" and "Three Thousand Worlds," but also learned a lot about logic and philosophy of mind from Cao Ze through Shao Siming.

Not to mention the storytellers in Chu retelling the Journey to the West, which has piqued her interest in Cao Ze.

It's hard to be disappointed; on the contrary, I found Cao Ze to be much more humorous than I had imagined, despite his serious demeanor.

The Grand Master of Fate stood quietly, wearing a red and black slit cheongsam with her arms crossed.

A pair of delicate, red hands were gently tapping her arms.

She kept wondering what Lord Dongjun's purpose was in stopping his conversation with Cao Ze.

Was it to use Cao Ze's influence to announce their arrival to the various schools of thought in Handan?

No wonder Lord Dongjun has been able to suppress Lord Yueshen all this time; it's not just because he's strong.

The Grand Master of Fate gradually began to lean towards siding with the Lord of the East, who seemed to have a brighter future.

Chapter 123 A Hero Uses Martial Arts to Break the Law

Saying that Yanfei is love-struck is just a joke.

Cao Ze did not believe that he would be loved by Yan Fei because of things like "Snow Maiden Song".

This is not science fiction.

Yanfei has no worldly psychological burdens.

To pave the way for Yan Dan, Six-Fingered Black Knight launched a surprise attack without warning.

They even cleverly pulled Wei Zhuang over, making Wei Zhuang, the second uncle, willingly carry the pot lid on his back.

Yan Dan ultimately stood on the moral high ground, tearfully licking the bag.

Cao Ze smiled and said, "I'm about to go to the Hundred Schools Forum. Would you like to come with me, Dongjun?"

Yan Fei pondered for a moment and then said, "Alright."

It's a good opportunity to go to the Hundred Schools Association event and let everyone know that they've arrived.

Although she already knew that several masters, including the Six-Fingered Black Knight, the leader of the Mohist school, were participating in the Hundred Schools Forum.

However, she was not afraid.

The Mohists of today are not the same Mohists of decades or centuries ago, who were feared by various states and even made King Huiwen of Qin, Ying Si, who was known for upholding the law and acting domineeringly, change his domineering nature and take the initiative to pardon the only son of Fu Yun, the Mohist master who had committed murder.

If it were the Mohists of yesteryear, and their leader died outside Handan, and the State of Zhao failed to provide an explanation, then King Su of Chu, who killed Mohist leader Meng Sheng and 180 Mohist disciples in order to execute Lord Yangcheng, would be the best example.

The leader of the Mohist school, Meng Sheng, did not die in battle, but in civil war.

As a result, after the Mohists were divided into three factions, they united for the first time like never before.

Qi Mo took the initiative to persuade various countries, Qin Mo offered excellent weapons, and Chu Mo sent three thousand Mohists to help the various countries attack Chu.

This prompted various countries to jump in, ready to take advantage of the situation.

In the fourth year of King Su of Chu, Shu attacked Chu and captured this region.

In the sixth year of King Su of Chu, Wei attacked Chu, defeated it, and captured Yuguan.

In the tenth year of King Su of Chu, the State of Wei sent an army to capture Luyang.

King Su of Chu, who possessed the qualities of a restorer of the Chu state and was able to govern diligently and gradually reclaim power from the nobility, suffered three devastating defeats and ultimately died in despair, having reigned for only eleven years.

This is also why the State of Chu has a very bad attitude towards the Mohists.

If it weren't for the fact that Chu Mo possessed the Mechanized City, and that the three families of Qu, Jing, and Zhao within the Chu Kingdom were too powerful to control, the King of Chu would have long ago considered sending troops to crush the Mo family.

She even had a slight expectation that the Mohists would dare to take action in Handan, at the Hundred Schools Association event.

The Moon Goddess and the Grand Master of Fate had different expressions when they heard that Yan Fei was going to the Hundred Schools Forum right now.

Cao Ze thought he was hallucinating.

Although he couldn't discern Yan Fei's strength, he figured she was at most a Grandmaster.

Among the masters associated with the Hundred Schools of Thought, there are Gongsun Yu from the School of Diplomacy, Nian Duan from the School of Medicine, and Gongsun Long from the School of Names.

Is this how you attract attention?

just in case……

Ok?

Cao Ze suddenly thought of a possibility: Yan Fei wouldn't have done it on purpose, would she?

If the Mohists were to make a move in Handan, killing people in front of the Crown Prince and the Prime Minister, at a grand gathering organized by the Zhao state, the Zhao state would inevitably have to make a statement, and might even use this opportunity to strike at the Mohists.

After all, the Mohist school is no longer what it used to be.

Back then, the teachers and students of Jixia Academy compiled the "Sima Fa" based on Sima Rangju's military strategy. In their excitement, they forgot to inform the Mohists to attend and celebrate such a momentous occasion.

The former leader of the Mohist school, along with three hundred Mohists, blocked the entrance to the Jixia Academy, forcing Tian Ji, the former general of Qi and a master strategist, to personally apologize on the spot.

However, the Mohists felt that this was not sincere enough, so they simply captured Tian Ji, tied him up, and threw him into the Jixia Academy.

As a result, King Qi Wei had to come forward to apologize and listen to the leader of the Mohist school recite scriptures for three days before the matter was considered closed.

This led to the saying that Mohists did not join the Jixia Academy.

If the above incident can be considered as the Mohists being in the right, then the leader of the Mohists also attempted to assassinate the king due to a misunderstanding.

Because of a misunderstanding of Shang Yang's reforms, the leader of the Mohist school personally assassinated Shang Yang and Duke Xiao of Qin.

Fortunately, it was just a misunderstanding. After hearing Shang Yang and Duke Xiao of Qin's explanation, the leader of the Mohist school apologized verbally and left.

What is a prominent school of thought? What does it mean to be either Confucian or Mohist? What does it mean for a knight-errant to break the law with martial arts?

That's it!

This is just a typical example of something that has become a big deal and is known to everyone.

Other countries have also suffered at the hands of the Mohists for various reasons.

One incident after another made the existence of the Mohist school a thorn in the side for every ruler.

If the Mohists hadn't been spread throughout the seven kingdoms, with countless disciples both in and out of the court, nobles would have long since succumbed to their power and led their forces to destroy the Mohists.

Clearly, these two or three generations of giants have recognized this.

Compared to the fierceness of past leaders, he is much more gentle in his approach to handling affairs.

He devoted most of his energy to cultivation and the martial arts world, gradually reducing the hostility of monarchs and nobles of various countries towards the Mohists.

Cao Ze and Yan Fei chatted as they walked towards the Hundred Schools Forum.

Unable to contain her curiosity, Yanfei asked, "What does the master plan to talk about at the Hundred Schools of Thought Academy?"

Cao Ze smiled and said, "I haven't decided yet."

"Oh……"

Yan Fei said, "Sir, you should go to the Hundred Schools Forum first, so as not to be affected by the conflict between the Yin-Yang School and the Mohist School."

She learned from Yun Zhongjun that Cao Ze seemed to have a good relationship with the Mo family.

She didn't want Cao Ze to be implicated because of her actions.

Thinking of Yun Zhongjun, Yan Fei felt a little regretful.

They had originally planned to bring him along to increase manpower, but when Xu Fu took his arm, it triggered the internal energy that Wei Gongzi Mou had left in his body, causing his heart meridian to shatter and him to die.

If it weren't for His Majesty the Eastern Emperor's personal investigation, and the fact that it wasn't Xu Fu who did it, everyone would suspect that Xu Fu was behind it.

After all, with Yun Zhongjun dead, Xu Fu would rightfully be the next Minister of Jin.

Cao Ze was very pleased with Yan Fei's thoughtfulness.

Yanfei is incredibly kind to her friends and those she has feelings for and cares about.

Cao Ze went to the Hundred Schools Forum ahead of time, seemingly unconcerned.

The black and white sisters, who were passing by, felt uneasy and whispered with a smile, "Don't be sad, your Lord Dongjun and Lord Yueshen have already arrived in Handan."

The black and white sisters were overjoyed and wanted to express their gratitude, but then they saw that Lord Dongjun and Lord Yueshen, whom they had been longing for, were approaching gracefully from afar.
