Qin Shi Huang: Swordsmanship begins with picking up Xiao Meng

Chapter 109 Jiang Yu's True Confidence, Han Fei's Tragedy
Having dealt with Liu Yi, Jiang Yu clapped her hands and came out.

Upon seeing this, the woman in purple at the door couldn't help but tease:
"So this is what you like, young master. No wonder all my flirting was for nothing!"

Jiang Yu glanced at Zi Nu and said indifferently:
“Miss Zi Nu is mistaken. I only like the real thing; I don’t care about the fake.”

A big talker!
If he had actually done it, Zi Nu would have immediately revealed her true colors and gotten angry.

When a talkative person meets a real person, there's no way they can fight, especially since Zi Nu still owes Jiang Yu a favor.

Zi Nu had no choice but to change the subject:
"Is the young master really connected with the Qin chancellor Lü Buwei?"

Zi Nu had clearly heard what Jiang Yu and Liu Yi were saying, and Jiang Yu's background was something Zi Nu had always been curious about.

"When a person is out in the world, their identity isn't entirely up to them,"

Jiang Yu chuckled upon hearing this:
"It was given to me by someone else."

Jiang Yu and Lü Buwei were practically family eight hundred years ago.

All that's left are the enemies.

"Oh, so young master dares to stay and wait?"

Zi Nu naturally understood Jiang Yu's words, and since Jiang Yu had previously used his internal energy to transmit his voice to Liu Yi, Zi Nu was unaware of this.

Therefore, in Zi Nu's mind, Liu Yi was not a fool. In the previous life-or-death situation in the room, Liu Yi was frightened by Jiang Yu's acting skills, but after Liu Yi left and had time to calm down, it was hard to say what would happen.

"Isn't your honor that what awaits you, young master, is not a beauty, but the darkness of night?"

“Miss Zi Nu, believe it or not, although Liu Yi’s conclusion is wrong, every word I just said to Liu Yi…”

Jiang Yu turned his head, looked directly at Zi Nu, and said, word by word:

"Is it all true?"

Did Jiang Yu lie to Liu Yi just now? No, I don't think so.

The Lü family and Jiang Yu are indeed of the Lü family and the Jiang surname, no problem.

As for Meng Wu, Jiang Yu also knew him. When Dongjun was fighting the plague, Meng Wu listened to Jiang Yu's advice.

So Jiang Yu wasn't lying. If anyone's to blame, it's Liu Yi for overthinking and scaring himself.

Zi Nu wasn't as spineless as Liu Yi, easily intimidated by Jiang Yu. Instead, she met Jiang Yu's gaze with a smile and asked:
"Including the part about Ji Wuye personally coming to apologize?"

"Of course, hahaha!"

Jiang Yu smiled confidently, then turned and walked towards her private room.

Jiang Yu had no connection with Lü Buwei, but in the vast Qin state, Lü Buwei was not the only one who could intimidate Ji Wuye.

Zi Nu gazed at Jiang Yu's retreating figure, her beautiful eyes seemingly still fixed on the confident, composed, and gentle smile Jiang Yu wore as she turned away, momentarily lost in thought.

Private room!

Jiang Yu pushed open the door and entered.

Nongyu, who was practicing the technique given to her by Jiang Yu during the waiting period, quickly stood up and bowed, saying:
"Thank you, sir!"

Although Jiang Yu hadn't said anything yet, Nongyu didn't think Jiang Yu would be unable to handle Liu Yi, especially seeing how happy Jiang Yu looked.

"Small thing!"

Jiang Yu returned to her seat and lay down, then looked at Zi Nu, who had followed her in, and said with a playful expression:

"Would you like to dance, Miss Zi Nu? I'm sure that your dance, combined with Miss Nong Yu's music, will create a truly beautiful sight."

It's only polite to reciprocate; I can't always let Zi Nu take the initiative to flirt with me.

Judging from how Zi Nu uses the chain sword in the anime, her dancing, while perhaps not as stunning as Xue Nu's breathtaking dance, is at least at the level of amazing.

Upon hearing this, Zi Nu, who was pouring wine for Jiang Yu, did not refuse, but simply said:
"Is this what you want people to do, young master?"

"Then forget it!" Jiang Yu accepted the wine, not wanting to make such a losing exchange.

Zi Nu's promise is no longer valid, and if Jiang Yu wants to enjoy the dance, there is a more suitable candidate in her family.

"Miss Nongyu, please continue. The music stopped halfway through, leaving a thorn in my heart!"

Jiang Yu narrowed her eyes, avoiding Zi Nu's resentful gaze.

"Pfft!"

Watching the two playfully interacting, Nongyu smiled. The two had been like this for the past few days; it seemed that Sister Zinu had finally met her match.

Then, Nongyu calmed herself down and began to pluck the strings of the zither with her delicate hands. Her movements were so graceful and fluid that it was as if she were dancing on the zither.

Just as Jiang Yu was quietly listening to the zither, waiting for Liu Yi to return.

In another private room!

After Wei Zhuang and Han Fei exchanged a long, cryptic, and seemingly profound statement, Han Fei finally uttered a normal sentence:
"If I remember correctly, your senior brother Gai Nie was appreciated by Ying Zheng in the Qin state and was invited to become his first swordsman."

Upon hearing Han Fei's words, Wei Zhuang's eyes immediately sharpened.

Senior Brother Gai Nie was the person Wei Zhuang most wanted to defeat—well, now we should add the word "formerly."

Thinking of that annoying guy, Wei Zhuang couldn't help but sneer:

"Since you know about my senior brother's affairs, you must also know about the power of your Brother Jiang, right?"

Han Fei naturally understood what Wei Zhuang was referring to.

"The son-in-law of Lord Changping of Qin!"

If Han Fei could know this news, then Nightfall's intelligence capabilities are even more obvious. There's no way around it; after all, Qin caused such a huge commotion because of Jiang Yu.

This is the biggest reason why Jiang Yu was so confident from the beginning and didn't care at all about his robbery of military funds being exposed.

Because Changping Jun, who had just achieved a major victory in his struggle against Lü Buwei, was still someone Ji Wuye couldn't afford to offend.

Even if the plan to impersonate Luo Wang ultimately fails, Ji Wuye still has to obediently bow his head and say "thank you" because of his martial prowess and his status as the son-in-law of Lord Changping.

The reason Jiang Yu had Mo Ya help her conceal her identity was simply to test whether Mo Ya was a worthwhile friend.

Jiang Yu's confidence in Zi Nu earlier, and the fact that Ji Wuye would personally come to apologize after killing Liu Yi, also stemmed from this.

As for why Jiang Yu didn't directly use the name of Lord Changping, it doesn't take into account what Jiang Yu was doing.

Putting robbery aside, let's talk about what kind of good son-in-law would use his father-in-law's name to get into fights with other women in a brothel.

So let Luo Wang take the blame for the bad things. After all, given Luo Wang's infamous reputation, one more incident won't make a difference.

Looking at Han Fei's calm expression, Wei Zhuang couldn't help but ask curiously:
"Aren't you afraid that he was sent by Qin to sabotage Han?"

Wei Zhuang said this because he knew that Jiang Yu had stolen 100,000 units of crucial military pay from the state of Han.

"Hahaha."

Han Fei laughed upon hearing this, but his laughter was filled with sorrow.

"I do hope that everything is as Brother Wei Zhuang said, that the State of Han is worthy of Qin's attention and that Brother Jiang is specially sent to sabotage it."

Through these days of getting along, Han Fei naturally understood how terrifying Jiang Yu was.

If a powerful state like Qin still needed to send someone as formidable as Jiang Yu to sabotage Han in order to deal with Han, doesn't that just prove how powerful Han is?
But what is the truth?
The truth is that South Korea is now so weak that the Qin state could crush it with a flick of its wrist.

To deal with such an opponent, why would the Qin state need to send Jiang Yu?

This is precisely what saddened Han Fei, a prince of the state of Han.
