Qin Dynasty: Becoming a peerless master through the Golden Light Mantra

Although she sensed something was amiss, Zi Nu didn't show it and watched Jing Ni continue her performance in front of her with a normal expression.

It's not unacceptable for a wealthy young lady to learn some self-defense techniques while learning music and dance.

Most of the sisters in Zilanxuan are like this.

Upon reflection, Zi Nu realized that the young woman in the feathered robes before her seemed to be able to enter the core circle of Zi Lan Xuan.

This way, she can replace Nongyu, who will leave Zilanxuan in the future.

Of course, tests for her are essential in this process.

Jingni quickly finished her dance.

She looked at Zi Nu, feigning a slight hint of timidity: "Sister, how was my performance just now?"

Zi Nu clapped her hands and cheered: "Sister's performance was excellent. Next, sister, follow Nong Yu and get familiar with the situation of our Zi Lan Xuan."

Jingni immediately bowed and thanked her, "Thank you, sister."

……

Meanwhile, Han Fei, accompanied by Zhang Liang, had arrived at the residence of Liu Yi, the Left Sima.

With their exceptional intelligence and reasoning abilities, the two quickly surveyed the scene and discovered the murder scene hidden in a secret room.

Immediately afterwards, the two summoned Liu Yi's wife, Madam Hu.

The moment Han Fei saw Madam Hu, he was drawn to the Fire Rain Agate on her body.

This fire agate is a key clue.

According to the previous testimonies of the servants in the Liu household, Liu Yi had an argument with Madam Hu before his death.

Moreover, during the argument, the fire and rain agate on Madam Hu's body was torn off.

Unlike Han Fei, who was captivated by the case, Zhang Liang had much more on his mind.

This fire agate is quite similar to the fire agate worn by the girl Nongyu in Zilan Pavilion.

Moreover, Madam Hu is the eldest daughter of Huoyu Manor.

Perhaps Madam Hu really can help Nongyu find her parents.

After finishing his questioning of Madam Hu, Han Fei, who was about to leave with the collected evidence, noticed that Zhang Liang seemed somewhat distracted.

Curious, Han Fei asked, "Zifang, have you discovered something?"

Once he came to his senses, Zhang Liang replied, "Brother Han, I didn't find anything."

Before Han Fei could reply, Zhang Liang continued, "However, Brother Han, don't you think the Fire Rain Agate on Madam Hu's body looks rather familiar?"

Fire Rain Agate?

Upon hearing Zhang Liang's reminder, Han Fei raised his right hand and gently stroked his chin.

Soon, Han Fei thought of what had happened yesterday.

Han Fei's eyes lit up, and he punched his left hand with his right fist: "Zifang, you mean Miss Nongyu?"

Seeing that Han Fei remembered, Zhang Liang smiled slightly: "That's right, perhaps just as Eleventh Young Master deduced, Madam Hu really can help Miss Nongyu find her parents."

That makes sense.

Han Fei nodded slightly.

"However, we still need to focus on the case of Zuo Sima Liu Yi, which is currently rife with doubts."

As soon as he finished speaking, Han Fei rubbed his temples, feeling a bit of a headache.

Although it's clear that this case is a trap set by Ji Wuye, only by figuring out what kind of trap it is can he escape unscathed and launch a counterattack against Ji Wuye.

Zhang Liang nodded slightly.

Then, he turned his attention to the box the soldiers had brought over: "Hopefully, this will provide us with some clues."

This is what they found in the secret room.

……

The perspective shifts to Han Che.

When Han Che returned to his residence, he found that Yan Lingji had already returned.

As before, she leaned against a pillar in the backyard veranda, waiting for him.

Han Che slowly walked up to Yan Lingji and asked, "Have you finished your business?"

Things went more smoothly than I expected.

Yan Lingji replied.

"However, in such a short time, a great deal has changed here."

"Changes? What changes? Everything here is exactly the same as before."

Han Che was puzzled upon hearing this.

"Yeah?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Yan Lingji looked at another guest room next to her own room.

"It seems like there's someone else in the room next to mine."

Han Che looked over upon hearing this.

After seeing the room he had arranged for Dongjun, he suddenly realized what had happened.

"So you're talking about Dongjun from the Yin-Yang School."

Yan Lingji was quite surprised to hear this: "You've even managed to win over Dongjun from the Yin Yang School. It seems you have quite the charm."

Yan Lingji was no stranger to the Yin-Yang School of Chu.

The State of Chu was the true enemy of the Baiyue.

Compared to what the Chu state took from the Baiyue, the harm that the Han state inflicted on the Baiyue was negligible.

Therefore, they had the most thorough understanding of the power in the Chu region.

"I didn't abduct her; she came to me on her own."

Furthermore, she is not a friend, but an enemy.

I almost fell for her trick.

Thinking about what happened last night, Han Che still felt a little scared.

Although he knew the Golden Light Mantra and Thunder Magic, he still dared not easily try the Yin-Yang School's spell seals.

That's gambling with your own life.

A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall.

"enemy?"

Yan Lingji looked suspicious.

"Why are you so kind to your enemies?"

"Although we are enemies now, we may not be in the future."

Besides, she's worth at least a fortune now, so naturally I have to take good care of her.

Otherwise, I wouldn't get that money.

As soon as he finished speaking, a look of joy appeared on Han Che's face.

A thousand taels of gold is no small sum.

Moreover, this money was a windfall.

Once the funds are in his account, he will be able to do more.

Although he has many ways to make money, he also has many places to spend it.

The training of soldiers, in particular, is an extremely expensive undertaking.

However, if you manage it well, your efforts will be proportional to your rewards.

His soldiers not only ate well, but he also took good care of their families, ensuring they had no worries about their families on the battlefield.

He believed.

His army will not disappoint him on the battlefield.

Yan Lingji shook her head and sighed.

"You Central Plains people are really hard to understand."

They wouldn't be so polite to their enemies, nor would they think so much about such things.

"You'll understand once you see more of it."

Han Che didn't say much to Yan Lingji.

Some things are hard to explain; you have to experience them for yourself.

Practice teaches, and you'll learn it in one go.

Once bitten, twice shy.

Yan Lingji wisely refrained from mentioning the matter again.

"How much longer do you expect me to wait for my master's affairs?"

Han Che asked, "Are your companions urging you?"

"Although they didn't rush me, they would get impatient if I kept waiting like this."

I need to give them an explanation.

Han Che nodded slightly.

"I understand. You will be able to see your master in less than seven days."

However, his condition may be somewhat dangerous.

Yan Lingji frowned immediately: "What's going on?"
