Martial Arts Crossover: It All Started with Hijacking Li Canghai
Chapter 235: The Conferment of Territory and the Establishment of Kingships: The Prestige of the Qin
Wei Xiaobao's mind raced!
Brother Qin!
Master was referring to Brother Qin Han!
He instantly understood what Chen Jinnan meant.
You cunning old fox, Master!
Does this mean I should go ask my older brother for help?!
No wonder he was being called out of the palace today. Wei Xiaobao thought for a moment, realizing that he hadn't seen Brother Qin for almost two years.
Aside from arranging for someone to protect it, he hadn't actually been to that fenced courtyard much.
Firstly, his identity was too sensitive; he was now both a eunuch in the imperial court and a member of the Heaven and Earth Society. Secondly, men and women should not be too close, and he knew that Aunt Nian had always been interested in his elder brother.
Wei Xiaobao still had his principles and took this very seriously: one should not covet one's brother's wife.
Besides... besides, it was missing half when it entered the palace...
He can't even handle that shrewish princess in the palace now, how can he possibly have the mind to think about other women?!
This is why Mu Jianping was safely delivered.
Now, his elder brother was no longer someone like the Heaven and Earth Society or the Mu Wangfu who could be easily taken advantage of. He thought about it.
Even if my elder brother doesn't come, he can send his subordinates like Xiao Feng, Dong Tianbao, and Qin Qiong, who became famous alongside him. That shouldn't affect my elder brother's situation.
With that thought, Wei Xiaobao straightened his back.
My elder brother is the King of Qin!
A brotherhood forged since childhood!
Let alone one Ao Bai, even ten Ao Bais wouldn't be enough in front of Brother Qin now.
He cleared his throat by pinching his Adam's apple with his fingers, then took two steps forward, imitating a storyteller, and stood in the center of the arena.
"Ahem!"
Looking around at the chivalrous figures who clearly looked down on him, he deliberately kept them in suspense.
"My heroes, my master was right! There's really no need to worry about dealing with that old scoundrel Ao Bai!"
A burly man, clearly looking down on Wei Xiaobao for not knowing martial arts, shouted, "What are you bragging about, you little brat! What can you possibly do?"
"Exactly! Don't waste everyone's time trying to attract attention!"
"Chief Chen, are you sure this kid has any tricks up his sleeve?"
Faced with the doubts of the crowd, Wei Xiaobao remained calm and chuckled.
"As for a solution, I naturally don't have one."
Before anyone could react, Wei Xiaobao continued, "However, even though I don't have one, I can find someone to do it!"
He patted his chest triumphantly.
"To tell you the truth, I have a sworn brother! If my brother is willing to take action, that old scoundrel Ao Bai and his bunch of lamas are nothing but chickens and dogs!!"
His words were too boastful, and to outsiders it was clearly an exaggeration, which immediately drew laughter from the room.
"Hahaha! You're quite the braggart!"
"Clay chickens and earthenware dogs? Do you think your elder brother is Qin Han?"
"Chief Chen, where on earth did you find such a lively and eccentric disciple?"
Even Mu Jiansheng and Chen Jialuo felt that Wei Xiaobao was exaggerating, and their faces showed disappointment.
Chen Jinnan didn't laugh; instead, he gave the man who said his elder brother was Qin Han, a strange look...
Because only he knew that Wei Xiaobao really wasn't exaggerating.
Although Wei Xiaobao loves to boast, Chen Jinnan can vouch for him with his integrity in this matter; every word he says is true.
Facing the ridicule of the crowd, Wei Xiaobao was not angry. He simply pursed his lips and slowly said:
"His name, if I were to reveal it, would probably scare you to death!"
"Oh? What kind of expert is so powerful? You scared me to death?" a man asked disdainfully.
"That's right, even Chief Chen wouldn't dare make such a boast. Who are you talking about? Tell us so we can all hear it and see if we know them!"
The crowd stirred up a commotion, all eager to see what this young man could come up with.
This is exactly the effect that Wei Xiaobao was waiting for.
He deliberately drew out his words: "Gentlemen, do you still remember the one who was granted a fiefdom and title in Sichuan during the Southern Song Dynasty?"
Southern Song Dynasty, Sichuan? Granting land and titles of kings?
Everyone was taken aback at first, and then a well-known name immediately came to mind!
The King of Shu, Qin and Han!
The entire room fell silent.
Everyone's faces showed surprise and uncertainty.
One of the bolder ones tentatively spoke up, his tone noticeably less playful than before: "You...you're not talking about...you mean that..."
Seeing everyone's reaction, Wei Xiaobao was extremely pleased with himself. Is this what it feels like to show off?
This must be the feeling my older brother was talking about back then.
Stand tall and proud!
"That's right! My elder brother is the Prince of Shu in the Southern Song Dynasty!"
"Qin and Han Dynasties!"
Upon hearing this!
The entire room erupted in chaos!
"Qin Han?! It really is that Qin Han?!"
"That King Qin Han of Shu, who commanded hundreds of thousands of troops and routed 100,000 elite Jin soldiers?!"
"I've heard that Xiao Feng from the North is now a capable lieutenant under the Prince of Qin!"
"What makes you think you have such a big brother?!"
"If we could really get this prince's help, what would we have to fear from Ao Bai!"
Doubt, excitement, and a variety of other emotions were on display.
A person's name is like a tree's shadow!
The reputation of the Qin and Han dynasties is now at its zenith!
The various stories had long been spread throughout the country by storytellers and merchants traveling from north to south, and had been adapted into various legendary versions.
What sword slaying the Jin Dynasty's grandmaster, what effortless destruction of enemy ships and fortresses, what countless masters and fierce generals under his command, and even the nightly summoning of eighteen bodhisattvas...
In the hearts of these anti-Qing patriots, the Qin and Han dynasties were simply the hope for the rise of the Han people, and the foremost heroes of their time!
The crowd was in a frenzy!
The chivalrous heroes who had previously been listless and thought that assassinating Ao Bai was a pipe dream were now flushed with excitement!
Even Chen Jialuo and Mu Jiansheng's eyes lit up!
Qin and Han Dynasties!
This name was famous not only in the Southern Song Dynasty, but throughout the entire world, it represented a legend!
Previously, they thought the success rate of assassinating Ao Bai was less than 20%.
So, upon hearing the name Qin Han, the success rate would immediately soar to 90%!
Only Chen Jinnan, watching the scene before him, had a complex expression in his eyes.
He never imagined that just over a year ago, he had looked down on the young man from Yangzhou, even despising him because he didn't know martial arts.
In less than two years, he has grown to a height that he can only look up to.
Whenever he thinks about this, Chen Jinnan feels a tightness in his chest, as if he has missed out on hundreds of millions of dollars.
I had no appetite for any of the most delicious food...
Fate can be incredibly cruel!
"Young man! You...you're telling the truth? You really are sworn brothers with the King of Qin?" The burly man who had just been disdainful stepped forward excitedly and grabbed Wei Xiaobao's arm, his strength almost crushing him.
"Ouch, ouch, ouch! Be gentle, be gentle! Of course it's true! I, Wei Xiaobao, never boast. You can ask my master if you don't believe me."
Seeing that Chen Jinnan did not object, he then realized that the matter was indeed true.
Wei Xiaobao grinned and boasted about the old days, "Back in Yangzhou, my older brother and I were practically inseparable!"
