Conceptual melting pot, the fusion of all realms starting from the Qin Dynasty.

Zi Nu sighed softly, her purple eyes dimming as she felt a deep worry for the future of the state of Han. "Wei Zhuang has been waiting for Han Fei ever since he arrived in Xinzheng City."

"Perhaps he sensed something bad from your words, Chen Hao."

"Sister Zi Nu".

Nongyu walked to Zinu's side, took her soft hand in his, and looked at her with concern.

Nongyu knew that not only Wei Zhuang saw Han Fei as the hope of Han, but Zi Nu was also silently waiting in this Zi Lan Xuan for an opportunity to change Han.

“Zi Nu.” Chen Hao looked into Zi Nu’s eyes and said seriously, “Although I don’t know what feelings you and Wei Zhuang have for this Han state, you shouldn’t place the hopes of a nation on a few people.”

"Although Han Fei was talented, he was just a human being, not a god."

Chen Hao continued meaningfully, "South Korea is a country of millions of people. If the majority of these millions of people don't think about working hard for South Korea, then no matter how much you few give, it will be in vain."

Nongyu looked at Chenhao with some surprise, "Chenhao, you seem to have a very low opinion of South Korea."

Zi Nu looked at Chen Hao with some confusion, seemingly wanting an answer from him.

Chen Hao thought for a moment and asked, "Do you still remember what Sister Zi Nu and I discussed when we first met the day before yesterday?"

Nongyu asked, "The nation and the people?"

“That’s right!” Chen Hao nodded. “I have a high opinion of the Qin state and hope that it can unify this chaotic nation as soon as possible.”

"Moreover, King Ying Zheng of Qin is a man of outstanding talent and can be considered a good ruler."

“But the King of Qin shouldn’t be busy with state affairs right now, right?” Zi Nu looked at Chen Hao with some doubt. “In Qin, the Prime Minister Lü Buwei is currently in charge of the government, and the King of Qin has no power at all.”

"In terms of chaos, the Qin state is now even worse than the Han state."

Chen Hao smiled and said, "But the Qin army is still in the hands of the Qin people, isn't it?"

Zi Nu's pupils contracted, and she instantly understood.

"It seems that there isn't much time left for South Korea!" Zi Nu said with a helpless bitter smile.

Zi Nu turned around gracefully, walked to the window of the room, and looked out at the ancient and majestic city of Xinzheng. "I just wonder what the state of Han will be like when the flames of war break out again?"

...

After a while, Chen Hao handed the two scrolls he had prepared to Nongyu.

Just as Nongyu took the painting and turned to find a place to store it, Chen Hao suddenly looked down, pretending to notice the fire rain agate on Nongyu's waist for the first time, "Hmm~! What a strange pendant, I feel like I've seen it somewhere before?"

Nongyu stopped, picked up the Fire Rain Agate from her waist with her left hand, and looked at Chen Hao with some confusion:

"This agate pendant was something I had since I was an infant, before I was adopted by Sister Zi Nu, and I have never seen the same one in all these years."

"Where did you meet Mr. Chen Hao?"

Zi Nu quickly walked over, looking at Chen Hao with some anticipation: "Chen Hao, could you tell me where I've seen the same agate as Nong Yu's?"

“The pendant on Nongyu’s body may be related to her background,” Zi Nu explained. “I have never given up on helping Nongyu find her background all these years, but I have never found any clues.”

"I never expected to have such an unexpected gain from you, Chen Hao."

"Wait, let me think." Chen Hao paced back and forth, feigning a moment of recollection, then suddenly looked up at Nongyu: "I remember now!"

“A few days ago, when Madam Hu, the wife of Zuo Sima Liu Yi, came to my shop, I think I saw a pendant on her that was similar to the one you, Nongyu, were wearing.”

Pa~!

Chen Hao clenched his right fist and tapped it against his left palm, feigning sudden realization:

"Thinking back, Madam Hu's pendant is almost exactly the same as Nongyu's."

"Really?" Nongyu asked hesitantly.

However, Zi Nu had already calmed down and clapped her hands to signal her to calm down: "Madam Hu's appearance is indeed very similar to Nong Yu's. It would be easy to confirm this matter."

"but..."

When Zi Nu said this, a look of hesitation appeared in her eyes, "That Zuo Sima Liu Yi is not an easy person to deal with."

Zi Nu held Nong Yu's small hand and quietly said:

"Moreover, as far as I know, Zuo Sima Liu Yi married Lady Hu after I found Nongyu, and the two of them were not as harmonious as everyone thought."

"So Lady Hu may be Nongyu's mother, but Zuo Sima Liu Yi and Nongyu should not be related."

Thinking of Liu Yi's hideous face, and then looking at Nongyu's fair and delicate features, Zi Nu simply couldn't connect the two of them.

"I wonder if Sister Zi Nu has heard of the Baiyue Fire Rain Manor and the Right Sima Li Kai?"

Chen Hao casually offered a reminder from the side.

"You mean?"

Zi Nu narrowed her eyes, recalling the origins of Madam Hu and Consort Hu. "I've heard that Madam Hu and Consort Hu seem to be the legitimate daughters of Lord Huoyu of Huoyu Manor in the Baiyue region. Could it be that Nongyu's background is related to Huoyu Manor in Baiyue?"

More than a decade ago, the events at Huoyu Manor and the treasure caused quite a stir in South Korea, and Zi Nu knew more or less about the old stories of Huoyu Manor.

"It seems that figuring out Nongyu's background is not such a simple matter!"

Zi Nu sighed helplessly.

Since it involves Fire Rain Manor, they naturally need to be extremely careful to avoid getting involved in the trouble of Fire Rain Manor's treasure.

Nongyu naturally understood this as well, and pulled Zinu aside to comfort her, saying, "I'm not in a hurry, Sister Zinu."

Zi Nu smiled slightly at Nong Yu, then turned gracefully to thank Chen Hao, saying, "Thank you so much, Chen Hao, for today!"

"Not only did he paint such beautiful portraits of me and Nongyu, but he also brought clues about Nongyu's background."

Nongyu also bowed to Chen Hao to express her gratitude, "Thank you, Mr. Chen Hao."

"Not at all, no need to be so polite."

Chen Hao smiled and shook his head.

...

In the evening, after bidding farewell to Zi Nu and Nong Yu, Chen Hao returned to his villa outside Xinzheng City.

At this moment, Yan Lingji had already prepared dinner and was quietly waiting for Chen Hao.

"You're back! Come and have some dinner."

Upon seeing Chen Hao, Yan Lingji smiled and waved to him.

Looking at Yan Lingji's face swaying in the firelight, Chen Hao asked with some curiosity, "Sister Yan Lingji, what did you say to the Corpse-Driving Demon and the others after you went to see them?"

"What else could it be?"

Yan Lingji helped Chen Hao set out the bowls and chopsticks, then said calmly, "Of course, she instructed me to investigate the whereabouts of Crown Prince Tianze as soon as possible."

...

P.S.: It's going to be available soon! Please give it lots of data, add it to your favorites, vote for it, give it flowers, leave a review, and recommend it!

Chapter 043 Accomplishment of Learning and Han Fei's Return

"Originally, they wanted to invite me to explore some hidden places in Xinzheng City, but after hearing about my current situation in Xinzheng City, they asked me to stay."

"After all, the ways to gather intelligence now are much more convenient and safer than them wandering around recklessly."

Yan Lingji glanced at Chen Hao gratefully, "Afterwards, I handed over some of the information I had gathered to the Corpse-Driving Demon and the others, so that they wouldn't wander around like headless flies."

Chen Hao sighed and rubbed his forehead in exasperation: "As expected, they came to Xinzheng City without any preparation. Yan Lingji, you suffered so much following them before."

“If I hadn’t appeared, Yan Lingji, you and those others would have been arrested very quickly if you had been running around in Xinzheng City.”

"Do they think that just because they have some strength, they can disregard the vast country of South Korea?"

"Hurry up and eat!" Yan Lingji gave Chen Hao a charming glare. "I know that meeting you, Chen Hao, is my good fortune, okay?"

"Ha ha!"

Chen Hao smiled, and then ate dinner with Yan Lingji by the dim firelight.

However, Chen Hao also anticipated that the three of them would probably clash with the garrison in Xinzheng City soon.

...

Half a month later, at the residence of the Six-Fingered Black Knight, the leader of the Mohist school.

The spacious courtyard that Zi Nu had originally provided for Six-Fingered Black Knight to stay in was now filled with all sorts of wood, tools, and prototype mechanisms, making it look a little messy.

These were all made by the two of them while Six-Fingered Black Knight was instructing Chen Hao in his studies these past few days.

Click-clack~ Click-clack~~!

Under Chen Hao's control with his innate Qi, a mechanical puppet, just like an ordinary person, walked, sat, lay down, moved around, and practiced martial arts in the courtyard.

Chen Hao smiled and asked the Six-Fingered Black Knight, "Senior! What do you think of the mechanical puppet I've finished?"

"Young friend, you are a prodigy!"

Instead of answering Chen Hao's question about the mechanical puppet, Six-Fingered Black Knight praised Chen Hao, saying, "In just half a month, you've almost exhausted all the mechanical skills I've learned."

“If it weren’t for the rules of the Mohist school, I would have taught you all the secret techniques of mechanisms that the Mohist school has passed down through generations.”

"Hey~!"

Six-Fingered Black Knight glanced at Chen Hao with a hint of regret.

These past few days, Six-Fingered Black Knight has been trying to get Chen Hao to join the Mo family, but Chen Hao has refused with various excuses.
