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

"Oh, that's alright."

Han Fei was secretly pleased. He never expected that the stubborn creature that had been clinging to him without doing anything would finally start working today.

If I knock my brother-in-law unconscious, wouldn't I be able to escape this predicament?

Kuang Xiu looked bewildered and said, "Brother Cao, what are you doing randomly hitting things? Are you lost in a maze?"

Cao Ze almost strained his back.

He was just testing Ni Lin's strength.

Perhaps sensing Han Fei's thoughts, Ni Lin, stimulated by Cao Ze, slowly materialized on Han Fei's body.

At this moment, Ni Lin's face was unrecognizable, and his body was surrounded by black mist, giving him a ghostly aura.

"Shh!"

The illusory scale flashed, and an ethereal, invisible fist smashed towards Cao Ze.

Cao Ze's eyes showed seriousness as he also threw a punch.

The expected impact did not occur.

Just as Cao Ze's fist was about to make contact with Ni Lin's fist, Ni Lin's fist and arm turned into black mist with a "bang".

These black wisps shot towards Cao Ze's face like arrows.

Han Fei was shocked. He only wanted to make Cao Ze faint and teach his brother-in-law a lesson, but he didn't intend to kill Cao Ze.

"stop it now!"

Han Fei shouted.

Cao Ze, however, had spared no effort. Facing the sudden attack from Ni Lin, he remained calm, twisting his waist to shift half his body and perfectly avoiding the sneak attack from the black energy.

After using this move, Ni Lin slowly dissipated and re-attached itself to Han Fei's body.

Han Fei patted his chest and said repeatedly, "You scared me to death, you really scared me to death."

Everything happened very quickly. Kuang Xiu only reacted after Cao Ze and Ni Lin had finished their fight.

"That was..."

Kuang Xiu muttered to himself, "A ghost?"

Cao Ze chuckled and patted Kuang Xiu on the shoulder, “There’s no ghost, that’s the sword spirit of Brother Han’s Reverse Scale Sword.”

He was secretly surprised by Ni Lin's strength.

I thought Ni Lin was only at the level of a half-step Grandmaster, but after just one contact, I found that he is at least at the level of a Grandmaster.

It is unknown who forged the Reverse Scale Sword in ancient times. Even though it is so broken, the sword spirit, like Han Fei, exudes an "empty" appearance, yet it still possesses the level of a grandmaster.

At least at the Celestial Realm.

Cao Ze made his own judgment.

Han Fei scratched his head. "Well, it's getting late. Let's call it a night. I'll head back now."

He never expected that his Achilles' heel would be exposed tonight; this was the very reason he dared to roam freely without any men.

Cao Ze chuckled sinisterly, "Brother Han, you can go back if you want, but let's finish the bet first."

Whether Kuang Xiu runs naked or not tonight is irrelevant, but he absolutely cannot let Han Fei, his brother-in-law, get away with it.

Damn it, he's digging his own grave for his sister's sake.

If it weren't for my composure and Zi Nu's support, Han Fei's treacherous scheme would probably have succeeded.

Besides, Wei Erha has returned at some point, so how can we not give him a gift?

Han Fei chuckled awkwardly and said, "How about another day?"

Cao Ze rubbed his fists and cracked his knuckles, his body crackling with electric arcs, and a large amount of lightning power appeared around him.

Han Fei's hair immediately stood on end.

"Brother Han, I'll give you a chance to rephrase your words."

Han Fei immediately replied from the bottom of his heart, "I, Han Fei, have always kept my word. Come on!"

Seeing that he couldn't escape and that no one was around, Han Fei made a snap decision: he might as well die sooner rather than later.

Kuang Xiu laughed heartily, "Brother Han, let's go!"

As Han Fei's intoxication took hold, he put his arm around Kuang Xiu's shoulder and laughed heartily.

"Let's go!"

Cao Ze watched with a smile as the two of them swung their arms and swung their clothes as they walked.

He suddenly spoke up: "Brother Wei Zhuang, why don't you come out?"

Wei Zhuang, who was hiding in the shadows, was startled, not expecting to be discovered by Cao Ze.

"How did you manage to find me here?"

Cao Ze laughed and said, "Is this difficult? After all, I'm better than you."

Wei Zhuang said coldly, "You've also broken through to the half-step Grandmaster level. Let's have another match tonight."

Cao Ze waved his hand and said, "No, you keep an eye on your King Han for now, make sure he doesn't get lost. I'm going to sleep now."

Instead of fighting with Wei Zhuang, wouldn't it be better for him to sleep with his precious Jing Ni or Zi Nu?

Wei Zhuang glanced at Han Fei, who was drunk and running around naked with Kuang Xiu, and felt deeply ashamed.

He rushed back from the battlefield of the Three Jin states' campaign against Qi overnight, and was even thinking of discussing it with Han Fei. What a waste of his intelligence.

……

Chapter 501 The Mute Eats the "Red Lotus"

"Shocking! At midnight, on Xinzheng Street, two men were found naked, committing such a morally depraved act!"

"It's outrageous! Openly letting loose like this, some people broke down and some cried!"

"Breakthrough! That person is our King!"

……

Han Fei huddled in an inn, trembling with fear, his entire body shrouded in black, terrified of being recognized.

He was now only thankful that he hadn't run naked in the middle of the night like his friend Kuang Xiu, storming into the palace, otherwise...

Han Fei shuddered. Right now, those watching the spectacle were just making things up; once it was confirmed, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Brother Wei Zhuang, I am deeply grateful!"

Han Fei said, deeply moved.

If Wei Zhuang hadn't suddenly appeared and abducted him, he probably wouldn't be trembling in the inn right now, but rather questioning his existence on the throne.

Wei Zhuang said expressionlessly, "The armies of the Three Jin states are stationed on the border of Qi. Qin has sent Zhang Tang with 5,000 elite Qin soldiers to reinforce them. The war is going well and there are frequent reports of victory. However, once it drags into the depths of winter, the situation may turn around in an instant."

"After General Li Mu and Lord Xinling discussed the matter, I was asked to return to Han and urge the war in Nanyang. Ideally, we should strike a heavy blow against the heavy Qin army in Pingyang on the Nanyang battlefield to put pressure on Qin."

Han Fei nodded after listening.

"I understand."

The situation is simple: it's already late autumn, and if it gets to deep winter, whoever stretches out their battle lines will be at a disadvantage.

Without a doubt, in the campaign of the Three Jin states against Qi, the battle lines of the Three Jin states were the longest, while the Qin reinforcements were backed by Qi. Although Qi did not have a strong army, it was very wealthy and had almost no logistical pressure.

Wei Zhuang asked, "What are you planning to do next? Do you still want your sister to marry Cao Ze?"

He had just learned about it from Zi Nu, and his first reaction was to object.

At such a critical moment, how could South Korea do something that would bolster the prestige of the Qin state?

But after learning the whole story, he could only curse Cao Ze in his heart, "What kind of person is Cao Ze? Besides seducing women and harming innocent women, what else can he do?!"

"Of course she has to get married. If she doesn't get married soon, I'm afraid my silly little sister will..." Han Fei sighed, "Never mind, let's not talk about her anymore."

Han Fei rubbed his head, which was still feeling the effects of a hangover.

"The campaign of the Three Jin states against Qi is a crucial link between the previous and the next phase. It is imperative that the campaign not become a stalemate. Otherwise, the loss would be a minor matter, but if Qin finds an opportunity to use Qi's strength to drag the Three Jin states into a quagmire, then we would be outsmarting ourselves."

Han Fei pondered for a moment and said, "When I was studying at Xiaoshengxianzhuang, I heard that the uncle of the King of Qi, the current Prime Minister of Qi, Hou Sheng, had a close private relationship with Lü Buwei."

"Now Lü Buwei is serving as prime minister in the State of Zhao, but he has the title of prime minister without any real power. He is probably waiting for an opportunity."

"In that case, Brother Wei Zhuang, I'll trouble you to make a trip to Handan, meet with the King of Zhao, explain the matter to him, and visit Lü Buwei so that he can write a letter to the Prime Minister of Qi, Hou Sheng."

"If all goes well..."

Han Fei smiled faintly, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.

When Wei Zhuang heard Han Fei's words, it was as if he had been enlightened.

The intelligence from the seven states was detailed and complex. The fact that Han Fei was able to find the most crucial and relevant information from such a vast sea of ​​documents undoubtedly shows that he was constantly paying attention to the movements of the seven states.

This restored some of his confidence in Han Fei.

……

Zilan Pavilion.

Cao Zezheng and Ya Fei were drinking together.

"Isn't Your Highness going to the battlefield in Nanyang? How come you have time to have tea with me?"

To be honest, Cao Ze doesn't really want to meet with Ya Fei right now.

Because Ya Fei kept telling him to go to Handan to meet the two children he had never met.

But Handan is not like Xinzheng, and Yafei is not Han Fei.

If he really went to Handan, not only would Jingni follow him, but all the wives in his folders that could form a football team would probably follow him too. This Princess Yafei would probably have to mobilize a large army to suppress him in Handan, just like Buddha suppressed Sun Wukong in the Five Finger Mountain.

He wouldn't fall for that.

"The matter of Nanyang is not urgent..." Consort Ya gently touched the strands of hair at her temples, a natural charm flowing between her brows.

Seeing that Cao Ze was distracted, she scoffed, "Am I that ugly that I make you so restless?"
