The Deepest Affection in Qin's Time

If he liked it, he could sneak in as a helper to the butcher.

"Shall we share a table, bro?"

A cynical voice rang out, interrupting Cao Yuan's train of thought.

He looked up and saw that the person opposite him was dressed in a typical wandering knight's outfit: a light blue shirt and loose trousers.

The only noteworthy thing is that he also wore a black cape, a typical Mohist outfit.

He looks familiar, like Jing Ke from a murder mystery movie… Cao Yuan put down his chopsticks and smiled, “Brother, please, want a drink?”

"Brothers, you are truly loyal!"

Jing Ke's eyes lit up, and he took the initiative to pick up the small wine jar and refill Cao Yuan's and his own cups.

He never expected to get to drink alcohol for free today.

This is so awesome!

If Fatty Ding sold him the wine for free, that would be even better.

You shouldn't talk about brotherhood and righteousness; you should call him godfather and say "Long live the king!" That way you'll get more... Cao Yuan thought to himself, a smile playing on his lips, and asked, "May I ask your honorable surname, brother?"

"Jing Ke, the 'Jing' in Jing Ke, the 'Ke' in Jing Ke."

After taking a swig of wine, Jing Ke let out a comfortable sigh: "This is so refreshing! It would be even better if Xiao Gao were playing music to entertain us."

How could you not be happy to get something for free... Cao Yuan laughed and said, "My name is Cao Yuan, Cao as in Cao Yuan, and Yuan as in Cao Yuan."

Jing Ke paused for a moment, then gave a thumbs up: "Brother Cao, you're the first person I've met who's said that. I thought I was the only one who would introduce myself like that."

“Unlike Xiao Gao, who has a poker face and speaks in a very formal manner, Gao’s surname is Gao and his given name is Jianli.”

After Jing Ke finished speaking, he laughed at himself.

"Do you think he's very rigid? He doesn't understand what fun is at all."

Cao Yuan nodded in deep agreement.

"Were the Jing Ke brothers members of the Mohist school?"

Jing Ke said cheerfully, "That's right, the Mohist school suits my temperament very well, so I'll join."

He wasn't surprised; Cao Yuan could tell.

The saying that all the wandering heroes under heaven are from Chu Mo is no exaggeration.

"Brother Jing Ke seems to be waiting for someone?"

Cao Yuan pondered for a moment, then asked.

"Hehe, to be honest, I am waiting for His Highness Crown Prince Dan."

Jing Ke laughed, speaking very casually.

"Oh?" Cao Yuan raised an eyebrow and smiled, "It seems that Brother Jing Ke is no ordinary person."

Jing Ke waved his hand, "No way."

He drank a glass of wine and gazed at the entrance of the restaurant.

"Your Highness has always emulated Lord Xinling by being humble and unassuming, associating with all sorts of people, including commoners and chivalrous figures. I am just one of them. Your Highness is here for a meal and is simply asking me a few questions."

Cao Yuan's heart stirred.

He remembered that the original text mentioned that there was a great conflict between Lord Yanchun and Prince Dan of Yan.

Think about it too.

Back then, the popular trio from Handan, the Prince Trio, and the Hostage Duo.

Years have passed, and things have changed.

Ying Zheng's father died young, and Zhao Yan's father was old, but both seemed to be favored by fate and smoothly became kings.

Only Yan Dan.

He is still suffering as the crown prince in the Yan Kingdom.

Distrusted by his deceased father, constantly tricked and betrayed by Uncle Yanchun, he also faces the constant threat of being sent abroad as a hostage.

It's beyond words to describe how tragic it was.

"Would it be convenient for Brother Jing Ke to make an introduction?"

Jing Ke readily agreed, saying, "Just for this cup of wine, I must give you a proper introduction, brother."

"Then thank you very much, Brother Jing Ke. Come, brother, let's have a drink."

Cao Yuan and Jing Ke chatted and drank wine.

After an incense stick had burned for a while, a young man dressed in a low-key yet luxurious manner walked in.

It was none other than Prince Dan of Yan, who had recently moved out of the palace.

Unlike other princes and nobles, he did not have bodyguards with him.

Because he was a master himself, enough to be ranked among the top in the martial arts world.

"His Royal Highness."

Jing Ke stood up and called out.

Yan Dan walked toward Jing Ke with a broad smile.

"It's been a long time since I've seen Jing Ke."

Jing Ke slightly toned down his wandering chivalrous habits.

"Your Highness, these are the brothers Cao Yuan and Cao Yuan, scholars of Confucianism."

Cao Yuan stood up, cupped his hands, and said, "Greetings, Your Highness the Crown Prince."

He bowed and secretly sized up Yan Dan.

Although Yan Dan had a smile on her face, she couldn't hide the gloom between her brows, clearly indicating that she was preoccupied with worries.

"Hehe, I've met Mr. Cao Yuan."

After Yan Dan instinctively greeted him, she suddenly paused for a moment.

Why does this name sound familiar?

Before Yan Dan could think it over, a beautiful woman in a blue and white dress entered the restaurant.

This immediately attracted the attention of all the nobles and wealthy merchants in the restaurant.

Such an exceptionally beautiful woman would stand out from the crowd wherever she is.

only.

The beautiful woman is in a bit of an awkward situation.

"Hi, Snow Maiden, what a coincidence!"

The beautiful woman reached the peak of embarrassment after hearing Cao Yuan's greeting.

She stood hesitantly at the entrance of the restaurant, unsure whether to go in or back out.

Why is she always so unlucky? In such a big capital like Yan, she still manages to run into Cao Cao!

Chapter 48 Social Death Situation

Without any warning, without any hesitation, you appeared just like that...

The Snow Woman was so embarrassed that she felt she could dig a tomb out of her toes and have people visit it.

Cao Yuan seemed to sense the Snow Woman's mortifying embarrassment.

He enthusiastically led the Snow Woman into the restaurant.

This move broke the hearts of many men both inside and outside the restaurant.

There is nothing more devastating than this in the world.

Just when I thought I had found love, I discovered that the love I had found was already someone else's.

To put it bluntly, your goddess is someone else's simp!

The Snow Maiden, looking utterly hopeless, was pulled in by Cao Yuan and sat blankly beside him.

She's having such a hard time...

She finally found a chance to sneak out and go to the Crown Prince's residence to find Prince Yan Dan, hoping to find a physician to help her get rid of the terrible poison in her body that was not detectable at all.

After learning from the steward that Prince Dan of Yan had come to this restaurant, she came over without thinking.

Unexpectedly, we actually encountered Cao Yuan, the traitor, here!

"I didn't expect Miss Xue Nu to have arrived here already. Why didn't you inform Dan beforehand so that I could have hosted a welcome dinner for you?"

Yan Dan was elegant and spoke politely.

The Snow Maiden's pretty face was somewhat numb, and her pair of delicate, white hands gripped her skirt tightly under the table.

"me……"

Cao Yuan picked up the thread: "Your Highness, you may not know this, but Miss Xue Nu came to Yan Wang Du with me. It was because of some trivial matters of mine that we were delayed until today."

After he finished speaking, he winked playfully at the Snow Woman: "Isn't that right, Snow Woman?"

The snow woman's heart ached again.

So annoying...

The snow woman forced a smile: "It's like this..."

Cao Yuan teased, "Didn't Miss Xue Nu say she was going to buy rouge and face powder? What are you doing here? Is there something you need from me?"

Who wants to look for you! Not a soul would want to look for you!

The snow woman wanted to go crazy, but she held back.

Jing Ke asked with a soft "Eh?": "Is Miss Xue Nu Brother Cao Yuan's lover?"

The Snow Maiden was stunned, and subconsciously turned her head to look at Cao Yuan. Her smooth, silvery white hair fluttered in the wind, and her beautiful face was expressionless.
