After being choked to death by a copper coin, she became a demon Jin Ji in the other world

[Hahaha, I'm sorry, I can't stop talking about military matters, and I've said too much. Come on, it's a pleasure to have friends from afar. On behalf of the State of Zhao, I welcome the two ladies.]

After Lian Po finished speaking, he drank another cup of strong liquor, which was so spicy that he grimaced. Although he looked a little embarrassed, he had indeed drunk up all the liquor in the cup.

Seeing this, Gan Yuelong could no longer remain indifferent. She followed Lian Po's drinking method and drank the wine in the cup.

In order to overwhelm the opponent with momentum, Gan Yuelong even drank three cups in a row. Although the concentration of Shen Yuelan's wine was relatively high, fortunately, the wine cup brought by Lian Po had limited capacity, giving Gan Yuelong a chance to fill it up.

Lian Po on the opposite side was really frightened by Gan Yuelong's trick at this moment. For a moment he didn't know whether he should continue to follow.

She drank three cups in a row. Hiss, this girl is quite fierce!

Chapter 156 Huanyan's Revenge

Lian Po's intracranial struggle went through many twists and turns, but as he continued to drink, the alcohol's attack became increasingly powerful, and Lian Po gradually sank and began to drink more.

Seeing that her goal was about to be achieved, Shen Yuelan hurriedly looked at Gan Yuelong, intending to hear what questions she wanted to ask Lian Po. But what caught Shen Yuelan's eyes was Gan Yuelong, who was also drunk.

Shen Yuelan looked at the two noobs in front of her speechlessly. They wanted to get the other party drunk with such a low alcohol tolerance? If she hadn't been watching, the two of them might have rolled into the same bed while drinking.

Seeing the state of the two people, she could no longer ask anything useful, so she took the initiative to call Lian Po's personal soldiers and asked them to carry Lian Po back to the camp. She then carried Gan Yuelong back to Shen Huanyan and others.

[Master, are we done discussing this? ]

[No, these two were sitting there chatting about everything, talking about this and that for a long time, but they just couldn't get to the point. Look, they were already drunk before they even had a few sips. With their alcohol tolerance, what else could they talk about?]

[Take your people to clean up the pavilion. There is still a lot of wine and venison left in the pavilion. Don't waste it.]

【okay. 】

Shen Huanyan happily led his men to rush over, but after a while, he came back with his servants, with a resentful look on his face, still muttering dirty words like "shameless robber".

[Huh? Why did you come back empty-handed? ]

[Humph, those personal soldiers under Lian Po are all ruffians! As soon as they saw us, they rushed over and took away all the wine and meat before us. It would be fine if they took the meat, but why did they also take away our wine? ]

Shen Yuelan gave a bitter smile when she heard this. Since ancient times, soldiers and bandits have never separated. When they gathered together, they were an army, and when they dispersed, they were bandits. Among the soldiers in ancient times, there were no good people.

The fact that Lian Po's men did not come into conflict with Shen Huanyan and others was a result of Lian Po's strict military discipline.

Apart from anything else, Shen Huanyan's pretty face was enough to make these soldiers take risks. Shen Yuelan suddenly realized that her actions just now were somewhat ill-considered. If Huanyan was an ordinary person, she might not be able to come back.

Of course, having said that, Shen Yuelan is not a coward who would just swallow her anger after suffering a loss. She is a person who will never let go of any grudge.

They were just a group of ordinary people. Shen Yuelan had plenty of ways to punish them. She turned around and stuffed a few packets of special-effect laxatives into Shen Huanyan's pockets, and asked her to go to Lian Po's camp.

Seeing this, Shen Huanyan still didn't understand what Shen Yuelan meant. After taking the laxative, she turned around and chased in the direction where Lian Po and others left.

[Hmph, if you dare to snatch food from this enchantress, clean your necks and wait for me! ]

Although Shen Yuelan was not as indignant as Shen Huanyan, she was also unhappy in her heart. Looking at the Zhao army a hundred miles away, she said to herself:

[Humph, the wine I give you is your wine. I don't give you anything. You want to get it for free, but you have to pay a price! ]

[Tsk, this movie line really doesn't suit me. ]

At the same time, in the forest of Yanzhao not far away, a pair of men and horses were galloping on horseback. Looking closely, they were Lian Po's personal soldiers, and Lian Po himself was tied tightly to the back of the man in the middle.

Judging from Lian Po's condition alone, this escort method did not seem comfortable. Lian Po himself almost vomited, but was successfully thrown back by the warhorse every time.

Shen Huanyan observed for a long time from the top of a tree not far away and couldn't help but feel sympathy for Lian Po's situation.

However, it won't be long before his situation becomes more difficult. Shen Huanyan shook the thick laxative in his hand and gave a wicked smile. There was still some shadow of Shen Yuelan in that smile.

Shen Huanyan's plan was very simple. She didn't intend to commit collective punishment or go to Lian Po's garrison camp to plant drugs. Huanyan's target was the wine jars that the group of people had snatched from them. She planned to pour the laxative into the wine.

This not only ensures the efficacy of the medicine, but also accurately locates the target, killing two birds with one stone.

Night fell quickly. Even though Lian Po and his companions were in a hurry to get back to the camp, they could only stop to make a fire, cook some venison to replenish their strength, and drink some strong liquor to warm their bodies.

When the soldiers were resting, it was the opportunity Shen Huanyan had been waiting for for a long time. Although it was not impossible to just rush over, since she was already there, Shen Huanyan still wanted to try her hand at martial arts acting.

She wanted to try out the assassination plots in martial arts novels to see whether they were just the figments of those lazy writers' imaginations or whether they were real.

As for the possibility that the action might fail, the master doesn't care anyway, and it won't matter even if she gets out of hand.

With this mentality, Shen Huanyan sneaked into Lian Po's makeshift camp, ready to implement her revenge plan, but she seemed to underestimate these ancients and also underestimated Lian Po.

China has a long history, and those who can leave a few words in it are all outstanding people, let alone people like Lian Po who can leave a strong mark in the vast history books.

Therefore, when Shen Huanyan just stepped into the defense area of the camp, her action, which she thought was extremely careful, instantly woke up Lian Po, and he saw that his attempt had failed.

Shen Huanyan quickly adjusted her plan and used special means to throw the laxative into the wine jar, and disappeared into the air before Lian Po got up.

Shen Huanyan was not someone who failed to recognize the situation. She knew that the moment she was exposed, it would be meaningless to continue the action, and it would be unwise to continue fighting with her.

Therefore, after completing the task, Shen Huanyan chose to retreat without hesitation.

Because she retreated in time, Lian Po did not find any suspicious place after waking up. Lian Po stood at the place where Shen Huanyan disappeared with a hesitant look on his face, looking around.

[Strange, there was clearly movement here, how come there is no trace left? It must be weird. ]

Lian Po had no choice but to return to the camp to rest after gaining nothing. However, before going to bed, he still cautiously sent an additional personal soldier to keep watch at night. After all, it is better to be safe than sorry.

But what he didn't know was that the laxative had already been taken, and no matter how careful he was, it was already too late to save the situation. He could only wait for diarrhea!

Lian Po and his personal soldiers, who had no idea what was about to happen, happily returned to the Zhao army camp with their spoils. Waiting for them there for a long time was Guo Kai, the envoy of condolences sent from Handan.

At this moment, Guo Kai had just entered his official career and was full of confidence. The first task he received from the royal court was to go to Lian Po's military camp to comfort the Zhao army which had just won a great victory.

[I have long heard of General Lian's great name. Seeing him in person today, I can see that his reputation is truly well-deserved. I am Guo Kai, a special envoy from the royal court. I have come to visit the general on the orders of the King of Zhao.]

[Oh, it's Special Envoy Guo. Oh, you are really young and promising, much better than me.]

[Come, follow me into the account. You don’t know that I just found a batch of good wine from somewhere else. The taste is really refreshing and pleasant, and it is endless aftertaste! ]

[It is a good coincidence that the special envoy has come across me today. As the saying goes, whoever sees it gets it. I will drink with the special envoy and will not leave until I am drunk. How do you think? ]

[Oh? Thank you for your kindness, General. I must taste it first. Please, General.]

【please. 】

Chapter 157: Disheveled in the Wind

After the two men entered the central army tent, they sat on the ground on both sides. The leader of Lian Po's personal soldiers picked up a jar of drugged "good wine" and led people to carry it into the tent. After pouring the wine for the two men, he withdrew from the tent.

Guo Kai picked up the wine jar, looked at its translucent color, and smelled its mellow aroma. Although he had not tasted it yet, he had already formed a preliminary evaluation of the wine in his mind. It was indeed a rare fine wine. General Lian really did not deceive me!

[Special envoy, please, this wine is sweet and strong, be careful when drinking it. The first time I drank it, I didn't understand it, I drank it in one gulp, and I made a fool of myself.]

【Oh? Thank you for the reminder, General.】

After being reminded by Lian Po, Guo Kai did not drink it all in one gulp, but took a sip tentatively. It was indeed a bit spicy as Lian Po said, but it was indeed delicious.

[Good wine, General. Even the king has never seen such precious wine. Today, it is only thanks to your great blessing that I can drink this wine.]

[Kai, I would like to thank the general here. ]

[Hahaha, the special envoy doesn't need to be so polite. We are all my Zhao country comrades. Isn't it normal for us to share good things with each other? Moreover, Special Envoy Guo is my good news bird. This time he came, he must have brought good news. ]

[Hahaha, of course. General Lian has expanded the territory of Zhao State by thousands of miles, which is a great achievement. If he is not rewarded for this, it would be unreasonable.]

[The king was extremely delighted when he heard that the general had won a great victory on the front line, and ordered me to escort 10,000 stones of grain and grass, 1,000 cattle and sheep, 100 jars of wine and water, and dozens of beauties to comfort the army.]

[Here is another piece of gossip that I think the general will be interested in. It is said that the king is grateful for your hard work and great contributions, and when you return to the court, he wants you to be appointed as the prime minister! ]

Lian Po was overjoyed when he heard this. After he captured Yangjin (Yuncheng), he had been thinking about what kind of reward he would get. Today, he learned from Guo Kaikou that he would soon be awarded the title of Shangqing, which was actually within his thousands of guesses.

Although it was expected, Lian Po was still happy. After all, guessing is one thing, and putting it into practice is another.

However, he remained calm in front of Guo Kai. After all, he had only known Guo Kai for less than a day, and Lian Po did not know the character of the young man in front of him.

Don’t be fooled by the fact that he seemed to be very familiar with Guo Kai just now, those were just some polite words. If it weren’t for his identity as a special envoy of the royal court, who would bother with a greenhorn like that?

Although Lian Po thought so, he naturally could not reveal his true thoughts. Contrary to his inner thoughts, he showed great enthusiasm for Guo Kai's arrival.

Not only did he take out the fine wine that he regarded as a treasure to entertain Guo Kai, he also took out the venison and poultry that he had hunted not long ago to entertain Guo Kai.

Is Guo Kai really worthy of Lian Po's treatment? In fact, Lian Po's social status at the moment is much higher than Guo Kai's. Apart from anything else, the title of Shangqing is enough for Guo Kai to look up to for the rest of his life.

Why did Lian Po still entertain Guo Kai so warmly? Because people's words are scary. Lian Po was in command of a large army at the moment. In the eyes of others, as long as he wanted, he could immediately march west, flatten Handan, and establish himself as king.

Therefore, although he seemed to be in a good position on the surface, he was secretly suspected by King Zhao and was often criticized by him.

With the example of Yue Yi, he had to be careful when facing people from Handan, fearing that he would die in a foreign land. Although after the Battle of Changping, he still couldn't escape.

However, in Shen Yuelan's opinion, although dying in a foreign land is a bit cruel, it is much better than being directly executed in Duyou.

Back to the story, after Lian and Guo Kai had their fill of food and drink, it was time to get down to business. As a special envoy, Guo Kai had the duty to comfort the army, and the so-called comfort was naturally not just about having a drink with Lian Po.

He had to take the supplies and convey King Zhao's edict to the army in person. Naturally, Lian Po fully cooperated with him, assembling the army, transporting supplies, setting up the stage and inspecting the troops, giving Guo Kai enough face.

Thinking of this, Guo Kai was naturally very happy. He wanted to go on stage with Lian Po to announce the decree to the entire army to show the king's favor to Lian Po. However, he never expected that Lian Po suddenly rejected Guo Kai's proposal on the grounds that he had a stomachache.

This made Guo Kai feel a little disappointed. This was the first time he had tried to be nice to someone, but he didn't expect to be rejected.

However, considering his status, such treatment was normal, and the banquet just now seemed a bit unreal.

[Hmph, if that’s the case, then just go by yourself. ]

Lian Po, who was squatting in the corner to use the toilet, was not unwilling to go on stage to review the troops with Guo Kai, but he really had a stomachache. He did not suspect whether there was anything wrong with the wine, but just thought that the venison was not fresh, which caused his stomachache.

[My goodness, this venison has only been cooked for less than a day, how can it be so bad? Oh my! Don’t be lazy and go hunt old deer to eat next time, it’s really addictive. ]

[Oh, that's not right. I'm not the only one who ate it, so how come Guo Kai is fine? ]

Is Guo Kai fine? How is that possible? Not only was he in trouble, but it was a serious one. The reason was that he had pooped in his pants in front of tens of thousands of troops, on that high platform, in full view of everyone.

Not to mention the soldiers in the audience, even Guo Kai himself was unable to react for a moment. He pulled his pants? He was a special envoy of the royal court, but he pulled his pants in front of everyone!

The moment Guo Kai reacted, he wanted to die, but when a person's emotions reach their extreme, they will suddenly calm down, and that was the case with Guo Kai at this moment.

Even though he was now extremely ashamed and angry, he still endured it. Guo Kai endured the mental and physical discomfort and insisted on reading out the King of Zhao's edict, informing the entire army, and handing over the King of Zhao's reward to Lian Po's deputy general in front of everyone.

After completing the task with difficulty, he walked down the platform with a gloomy face. The touch of his lower body made him feel humiliated. He finally understood why Lian Po behaved abnormally today.

Why would someone of his status entertain me so graciously? Why would he respond to my every request? And why did he refuse to share the stage with me? Thinking about it now, everything connected instantly.

Treating yourself is to drug yourself, complying with every request is to prepare for the stage, refusing to perform on the same stage is to make yourself look bad alone, everything is just to humiliate yourself.

[What a great Lian Po, what a great General Lian! What a big chess game you are playing! What virtue and ability do I, Guo Kai, have to be treated like this by you? ]

So, when Lian Po finally crawled out of the diarrhea hell and was walking slowly back, he ran into the angry and smelly Guo Kai head-on.

[Lian Po, you bastard, just wait for me! Thirty years in the east, thirty years in the west, don't look down on the young and poor! Sooner or later, you will fall into my hands! ]

After Guo Kai finished speaking, he limped to the toilet in the corner, without giving Lian Po any room to refute. Lian Po was left alone, clutching the leaves, disheveled in the wind.

Chapter 158 Born Guilty

Lian Po learned the whole story only after he returned to the military camp. Although he explained everything to Guo Kai afterwards, it was of no avail. The grudge between him and Guo Kai was formed.

Lian Po had no choice but to give Guo Kai a few more jars of good wine (drug-laced) when he returned to Handan. Little did he know that this move would escalate his relationship with Guo Kai from a complete break to a hostile relationship.

Of course, this is all later talk, but as far as the current revenge effect is concerned, Shen Yuelan is already very satisfied. Yes, Shen Yuelan and Shen Huanyan have been hiding in a nearby tree to watch the show. Now that the bait has been thrown, how can they not come to see what kind of fish have been caught?

[Master, isn't this attack too broad? Guo Kai has never offended us.]

Upon hearing this, Shen Yuelan glanced at the envoy team that had already gone far away, touched his nose, and explained to Shen Huanyan:

[It's okay, it's just a little diarrhea, it has nothing to do with the overall situation. Guo Kai's famous scene was caused by himself, it has nothing to do with us, if he wants to blame someone, let him blame Lian Po.]

[Anyway, in the official history, the relationship between Lian Po and Guo Kai was not good to begin with, and now it is just making their relationship deteriorate faster.]

[Is that so? But I think Guo Kai is really pitiful. If I were to make a fool of myself in public like that, I would probably have to hide in the core space and never come out for the rest of my life.]

Shen Yuelan was immediately amused by Shen Huanyan. Guo Kai? This guy has nothing to do with the word "pitiable".

One third of the credit for Qin's destruction of Zhao was due to Bai Qi, because he killed 40 Zhao soldiers in the Changping Pit, which severely weakened Zhao's strength.

Another third of the credit goes to Wang Jian and his son, because it was they who captured Handan and destroyed the State of Zhao; and the last third of the credit belongs to this [poor] Guo Kai.

There were four famous generals in the Warring States Period, namely Bai Qi, Wang Jian, Lian Po and Li Mu.

Among them, Lian Po and Li Mu were both famous figures of the State of Zhao with outstanding contributions. Lian Po defeated the wolf of Qi in the east and fended off the tiger of Qin in the west, and Li Mu guarded the northern border and was feared in the northern desert. But even more powerful than them was Guo Kai.

He single-handedly prevented Lian Po from returning and framed Li Mu for treason, which led to Li Mu being executed by King Qian of Zhao, causing Zhao to lose its last military force to compete with Qin.

Can such a treacherous minister really be described as pitiful?

After listening to Shen Yuelan's introduction of Guo Kai, Shen Huanyan fell silent for a moment. From God's perspective, Guo Kai was indeed guilty of the death penalty.

But that was a choice Guo Kai made decades later. What does it have to do with the young Guo Kai today? Was he born guilty?

[I don’t know whether he was born guilty, but a person’s present is built up by his countless choices in the past. Even if Guo Kai does not bear equal responsibility for his past mistakes, he cannot completely distance himself from them.]

Shen Huanyan said unconvincedly, according to what Shen Yuelan said, doesn't it mean that if a person does something wrong, he will be a sinner for the rest of his life and there will be no room for repentance?

[If this is the case, then it is too cruel. ]
