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

[Haha, so that's how it is. I've made note of it. At most I can say a few nice words to you later. I'm not a stubborn person. I can bend and stretch very well.]

[Yes, yes, go now, stop arguing with me here, go and witness your ideal world. I hope you can get what you want this time.]

Xun Kuang was slightly stunned when he heard this. This time? Was this a hint to him? Alas, there was no need to tell him about this kind of thing so early. However, he did not reject Shen Yuelan's kindness and thanked her before setting off.

Watching the three masters and apprentices heading west, Shen Yuelan had a sense of déjà vu of the journey to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures. She hoped that they could obtain the true scriptures.

Just as Shen Yuelan was on her way back to Handan City, she met another caravan heading west, which was the Lu family's caravan.

It is said that Lu Buwei gave 500 gold to Ying Yiren as the expenses for his daily life and socializing with guests in Zhao State. At the same time, he also took out 500 gold to buy rare toys to take to Qin State for lobbying. This caravan was probably used for this purpose.

Lü Buwei lobbied many people in Qin, including Lady Huayang's brother Yangquan Jun and sister. The most famous conversation was the story of him persuading Lady Huayang. He told Lady Huayang:

[You are young and beautiful now, so you are favored by An Guojun. However, you have no children. Once you are old and ugly, you will definitely fall out of favor. Who will you rely on then? ]

These words deeply touched Lady Huayang. Taking advantage of this favorable situation, Lu Buwei immediately pushed Ying Yiren into Lady Huayang's sight, spoke good words for him, and with his generosity, he made Ying Yiren Lady Huayang's son in no time.

Lady Huayang, who had been brainwashed successfully, took advantage of the convenience of An Guojun and tactfully mentioned that Ying Yiren, who was a hostage in Zhao State, was very talented and that all the guests praised him. Then she changed the subject and cried to him:

[It is my blessing to meet you and become your wife in my previous life, but unfortunately, I was unable to leave you a son or daughter. Yiren's child is filial and virtuous, with a clean family background, and is worthy of you.]

[I have acknowledged him as my son, and I hope you can also appoint someone else as my heir, so that I will have someone to rely on in the future.]

An Guojun doted on Lady Huayang very much. In addition, Ying Yiren had a good reputation recently, so he responded to all of Lady Huayang's requests. With the help of Lu Buwei, Ying Yiren finally became An Guojun's heir.

When Lu Buwei returns to Zhao, it will be the time for Ying Yiren to escape back to Qin. However, Zhao Ji and Ying Zheng will be abandoned in Zhao by the two men and suffer humiliation. By then, he may be able to observe Zhao Ji's true appearance up close.

Just as Shen Yuelan was standing on the side of the road and imagining the future, the convoy belonging to Lu Buwei suddenly stopped in front of her, and a middle-aged man sitting upright in the carriage slowly opened the curtain.

Chapter 209 Spending Hundreds of Gold

[Excuse me, young lady, is the person who just left Master Xun Kuang? ]

Shen Yuelan was slightly stunned when she heard this. She was actually coming for Xun Kuang. Did these two people have any intersection in history? Hiss, it seems not. Then it is better not to let them have any connection. God knows what chemical reaction will be caused.

[Um, sorry, I'm not sure. I only know that one of the people in the group is surnamed Li, but I don't know if he is the Xunzi you are looking for.]

[Ah, so that's it. That shouldn't be the case. By the way, may I ask if you are from Handan? ]

【How do you know? 】

[Haha, I have been in the seven kingdoms for many years. The walking posture of the people of Handan Zhao is unique. That elegance is not something that everyone can learn.]

Ah, so that's why. Speaking of my current walking posture, it's all thanks to that guy Du Juan. That guy said that he didn't want to learn, but he was secretly practicing behind my back.

If it were just that, it would be fine, after all, it is just a personal hobby, and others shouldn't say too much. The problem is that after this guy figured it out himself, he ran to Shen Yuelan to show off, and then mocked Shen Yuelan.

[Humph, didn't my Lord say it was difficult to learn? How did I learn it? My Lord, you can't just do things based on hearsay. You can't just ignore learning because it's difficult. My Lord, you should face the challenges head-on.]

When Shen Yuelan heard this, she thought, this is too much. If she can't learn it, this guy will probably laugh at her for the rest of her life. So after half a month of hard work, she managed to learn the Handan Marching Step.

However, Shen Yuelan added some of her own habits during the practice to prevent her steps from becoming weird after learning.

Today, except for the locals, almost no one can tell the difference between Shen Yuelan's Handan Marching Step and the traditional Chinese Marching Step. Even the knowledgeable Lu Buwei was fooled.

[Haha, thank you for your compliment. I did learn this step from the people of Handan, and I am not a local. I am just a guest here.]

[Ah, is that so? I was wrong. I didn't expect that there is actually someone who can learn the Handan style. It seems that these rumors cannot be trusted.]

[That is true, but I do not plan to leave the Three Jins these days. If you have any requests, I will definitely help you when I have the spare capacity.]

[Oh? The girl looks so delicate and slender, but I never thought she has a chivalrous heart. I really misjudged her today and humiliated her. ]

[What Lu asked for is not a big deal. I have a lover named Zhao Ji, who was taken away by a friend of mine a few days ago. Lu is still not sure whether she is alive or dead, and I can't take care of her at the moment, so I hope you can help take care of her. ]

[No need to worry too much on weekdays, just give her a hand when she is in trouble and save her life. Whether this succeeds or not, Lu is willing to give the girl a hundred gold coins. ]

After Lu Buwei finished speaking, he ordered his men to take the box full of gold off the carriage and send it directly to Shen Yuelan for her inspection.

Shen Yuelan looked at the box full of gold in front of her with great surprise. When Lu Buwei entered Qin, he only brought rare treasures worth five hundred gold.

And now he has not even left Zhao State, but he has already spent one-fifth of his money. This heroic act is for the woman lying in the arms of another man.

Is this the kind of woman that Lü Buwei doesn't care about being cuckolded and spends a lot of money on? Hiss, it's really scary to think about it. Shen Yuelan suddenly felt like she had eaten a big melon.

[Mr. Lu is really generous. The woman who can make him spend so much money must be very outstanding, right? ]

[Haha, that girl is not that good, she just knows how to dance. At least compared to you, she is still far behind, but she is the only love of my life.]

[Only one you love? But I just heard you say that you gave her to a friend. Can such an action be called love? I'm sorry I can't understand.]

[Haha, you are still young, it is normal for you not to understand this. Zhao Ji and I have been childhood sweethearts, so although there is love in our relationship, it is more of a family relationship.]

[I love her, but I also hope she can go further and higher, even if the price is that she has to leave me, not to mention that I may not suffer any loss.]

Ah, so that's it, so that's it. The last sentence is the key point. Look at how smug Lü Buwei was, he was just about to tell the truth. He spent so much money for no reason, so you know this guy has no good intentions.

Having gotten what she wanted, Shen Yuelan was too lazy to argue with Lu Buwei about whether his behavior was right or wrong. She accepted Lu Buwei's commission without hesitation. Shen Yuelan knew very well what Zhao Ji would encounter next.

He experienced everything, but the only thing he survived was death. For Shen Yuelan, this box of gold was like getting something for nothing, which was a great deal.

[In this case, I will leave my maidservant in my care, young lady.]

Watching the convoy disappearing on the horizon, Shen Yuelan gradually fell into deep thought. Hmm? Why would this guy entrust Zhao Ji to me? It can't be because they are compatible, right?

Tsk, it seems that this Lu Buwei is not a simple person. Hiss, why does it feel like chaos is starting again? Not only is Qi in chaos, but now Qin is also going to start to be in chaos. Is this... also the work of Yin Ji? It doesn't seem like it.

Could it be that force called Yue Dynasty? Oh, can't they just be quiet for two days? Gan Xingyan had invited me to join their military operation against Yue Dynasty, but I don't know how they are preparing now.

Shen Yuelan really wanted to show off her skills. She was thinking about how to avenge Lu Lingjia and others, but the pendant on her chest suddenly became hot. Shen Yuelan quickly took it out to check the situation.

The soul demon that had been in a dormant state seemed to have begun to change. If there was any difference now, it was probably that she had begun to produce a soul.

It seems that the rebirth of this Liu E is just around the corner. Speaking of which, this Liu E is also a ruthless person. I just don’t know whether she was created by herself, or like Mi Yuan, she is a big shot who already existed.

Looking at the pendant that had been restored to its original state, Shen Yuelan silently put it into her arms, then holding the box containing gold, she slowly walked towards the direction of Handan City.

Putting aside other things, this heavy gold is real. Oh, how should I spend so much money? It's really distressing.

[Master, are we just giving the money to that woman? Isn't that a bit too hasty? She didn't tell you the truth at all. That's one hundred gold coins. How many caravans would it take to earn it back?]

[Humph, what do you know? You were not in Qi State back then, so how could you know the strength of that lord? This lord looks kind and amiable, but if he gets really angry, even the King of Qin would kneel down and beg for mercy.]

[When the emperor got angry, there were millions of corpses floating on the surface and blood flowed for thousands of miles. But when she got angry, she directly destroyed the State of Qi. ]

[Is it so amazing? Oh, that's not right. I haven't heard that Qi was destroyed again. Where did you hear this? ]

Upon hearing this, Lu Buwei shook his head helplessly. He did not hear these words from others, but gained personal experience. More than ten years ago, he once did business in Wuyang City of Qi State, but because he left in time, he avoided the revision of history.

But when he returned to Qi again, he found that no one remembered what happened that year, and all traces of what had happened had disappeared completely. This was what frightened Lu Buwei the most.

The ability to kill people and destroy a country is not new, but the ability to turn the tide is unheard of. It is like a god, which is terrifying. Therefore, the box of gold is actually more of a tribute from Lu Buwei to Shen Yuelan, praying for his success in this trip.

Chapter 210: Driving Out Wolves and Tigers

Shen Yuelan didn't know what she had missed, nor did she imagine what kind of trouble Lü Buwei, the one who slipped through the net, would cause for her.

She was hiding from someone she knew. Who could Shen Yuelan know in Zhao? Only Lian Po, her old enemy.

Although this guy had admitted defeat before, that was when he couldn't find Shen Yuelan. Now that the real culprit suddenly showed up, he naturally had to find Shen Yuelan to have a good chat about life and ideals.

Ever since he returned to Handan, Guo Kai has been very indifferent to him and often bullied him in the court.

I heard that the reason why he was so persistent was not only because of the incident of pulling his trouser pocket in Qi State, but also because the jars of good wine that I gave him brought him trouble and almost cost him his life.

When they drank the wine, everyone said it was good. But after drinking it, they all squatted in the toilet without saying a word. It is said that King Huiwen of Zhao died because of this wine. He was in poor health to begin with, and then he collapsed. How many days could he live?

Although this guy is not a big deal now and has almost no influence on him, as the saying goes, things change over time. Who knows what this guy will become in the future? It would be uncomfortable for anyone to have someone like him always thinking about him.

Now he has his sworn brother Lin Xiangru to block the knife for him, but with that old guy's body, how many years can he protect him from the wind and rain?

Therefore, Lian Po must seek revenge from Shen Yuelan, or at least give himself some good wine without any additives.

[Miss Bai, why are you running away? We have met again after a long time, how can we not reminisce about the past? Or has someone done something wrong and is unwilling to face an old friend? ]

[Hmph, you can say whatever you want. If you didn't have bad intentions in the first place, I wouldn't have done this. This is a lesson I'm giving you. You have to accept it whether you want to or not.]

[Hahaha, Miss Bai is really overbearing. I have to say, I am really a little scared. If Miss Bai is willing to give me a few more jars of fine wine, I am not afraid to give her some face.]

Even though Lian Po had suffered a loss at the hands of Shen Yuelan once, he was still as stubborn as a stick. Shen Yuelan always felt something was wrong, but decided to teach him a lesson first.

[Hmph, you want some drinks, right? Fine, I'll give them to you. Just bring someone to get them this afternoon.]

Naturally, Shen Yuelan would not give him any good wine. The wine she took out was still the kind with added ingredients, and this was exactly what Lian Po wanted. The old guy naturally did not intend to fall into the same pit twice.

He actually wanted to get this wine in order to cheat others. This wine must be good, but the laxative is really deadly. Lian Po's upright character has offended many people over the years, and he has been suppressed by these people in the court.

Lian Po was so angry about this, but because he was not good at speaking, he could only suffer in silence for many years. When he met Shen Yuelan today, he planned to use laxative wine to teach these guys a profound lesson, so that they would know why the flowers are so red!

Therefore, after getting the poisoned wine, the old naughty boy decided to quit while he was ahead and immediately left Shen Yuelan's sight. After all, Shen Yuelan's laxative still made him feel scared.

This girl is like a poisonous snake. You can try to use her poison for your own benefit, but you must never associate with her. After all, no one can predict when she will bite you when she is in a bad mood.

Shen Yuelan didn't know that she had earned the title of "Venomous Snake". Even if she knew, she wouldn't care. It's just a poisonous snake, it's better than a rabbit that can be slaughtered at will.

[Lian Po and Lin Xiangru? Humph, enjoy the last glory of Zhao State. After Changping, the seemingly united Zhao State will completely fall apart, some die, some escape.]

Shen Yuelan watched Lian Po leave with a gloating look on her face. Among the Three Jins, except for Han, Zhao and Wei had both been powerful for a period of time. However, the Three Jins were originally one country. After being artificially divided, although they could become powerful for a while, they could not truly achieve hegemony.

King Hui of Wei could not do it, and neither could King Wuling of Zhao. Betraying their suzerain and breaking their oath would bring retribution sooner or later.

Putting this matter aside, Shen Yuelan's life in Caotang was not very comfortable. Qin and Zhao had been at war frequently recently. There were not many major battles, but small battles occurred frequently.

Handan City was often under martial law. During the worst times, Qin people living in Zhao were often interrogated. Shen Yuelan felt that this was a precursor to the Battle of Changping.

No wonder Lu Buwei wanted to escape with Ying Yiren after he came back. Who wouldn’t be scared in this situation?

In other words, Shen Yuelan and others learned the Handan tactics early on, and with some special means, they were able to avoid the pursuit of the Zhao government.

But Ying Yiren and his wife were not so lucky. After all, everyone knew that they were from Qin and were the noble royal family of Qin. Although they were not favored, this did not prevent the people of Zhao from being hostile to them.

Although the five hundred golds left by Lu Buwei could allow Ying Yiren to bribe the Zhao court and prevent them from targeting him, its effect was limited to preventing his family from being thrown into prison.

Especially after the news came from Qin that Ying Yiren was appointed as the heir by An Guojun, the situation of Ying Yiren's family in Zhao became more and more delicate. Since Lü Buwei's lobbying was successful, the drama of the two fleeing Zhao would happen soon. Shen Yuelan began to wonder whether she should go to Zhao Ji to take a look. After all, she took 500 gold from her, but it was not a good influence if she didn't work.

But as she expected, she couldn't get close to Ying Yiren's house, nor could she see Zhao Ji, who was pregnant at the time. Tsk, the management is quite strict. However, the more the Time Management Bureau is like this, the more relieved Shen Yuelan feels. As long as someone is in charge, it means that there won't be any problems.

However, Shen Yuelan did not feel relieved for long, because Bai Qi officially attacked Han. Some people might think what does the war between Qin and Han have to do with Zhao?

The matter was extremely serious. Not to mention that the Three Jin States were originally one and the lips and teeth would interdependently coexist, the Qin State's attack on Han was an important prerequisite for the outbreak of the Battle of Changping.

The reason why Qin attacked Zhao was that the Qin army was about to capture the Shangdang area of Han in this battle. However, Feng Ting, the prefect of Shangdang County, was unwilling to surrender to Qin. He used a strategy of "driving away wolves and chasing away tigers" and turned around and took the 17 cities of Shangdang County to surrender to Zhao.

Anyone with a discerning eye knew that to intercept Qin at this time would be tantamount to a complete break with Qin. This was a huge trap, a complete conspiracy.

However, Pingyuan Jun Zhao Sheng, who was blinded by the huge benefits, advised King Xiaocheng of Zhao:

[We mobilized a million troops to fight, but after years of attacking, we still couldn't capture a single city. Now we have gained 17 cities, which is a great opportunity. We can't miss it.]

King Xiaocheng of Zhao, who had already intended to send troops, naturally followed suit. Even though some people had opposed this matter before, he ignored them.

Chapter 211 Ghost Tribe Bonus

Shen Yuelan suddenly realized that this was actually a conspiracy against her. If Zhao Ji was in trouble and Shao Lan was also on the verge of death, who should she save?

This is indeed the worst case scenario, because Shen Yuelan cannot rule out the possibility that the imaginary enemy has the same or higher combat power as her own. If she is not prepared in advance, it will be really troublesome when the time comes.

Therefore, Shen Yuelan decided to go to Changping first to see what the situation was there. If conditions permitted, she would make some preparations in advance and then directly take the person out when the time came.

But what puzzled Shen Yuelan was that she couldn't get in Changping either. But this time it was not the Time Management Bureau's fault, because her colleagues from the Time Management Bureau were also blocked outside the barrier and were very anxious.

Shen Yuelan suddenly felt that things were getting serious and the development of the situation suddenly exceeded her expectations. The only thing she could hope for now was that Shaolan's caravan had not yet arrived in Changping to do business.

As for Changping now, Shen Yuelan feels that there is no need for her to take the initiative to participate in it. People should learn to improve their own value and wait for others to ask them to do things.

Otherwise, every time I would be the one rushing to call others and begging them to handle it, as if I was willing to participate.

[What if Director Hua really calls you, Master? ]

[What can I do? I just go. After all, I just want to gain more benefits for myself. After all, I am no longer in a period where I can feed my family if I am full. I also have to support my family.]

[That's true, but when you are needed, it's usually when we need to increase our troops.]

Hearing that the troops were going to be mobilized, Du Juan, who had been eavesdropping outside the house, suddenly popped her head out. She took the initiative to volunteer, wanting Shen Yuelan to send out the 100,000 ghost soldiers first to consume those ugly monsters.

[Why do you have to consume them? Holding them in your hands is at least a force. ]

[But they are too ugly. I don't like them. It is better to consume them as soon as possible. Maybe some high-level ghost kings can be killed in the war. The ghost kings will be good-looking, and I can reluctantly take them as maids. ]

[What if the last one left is a man? And he doesn’t look good? ]

[Then I will castrate him and give “her” a complete makeover!]

[Uh, you are really cruel. You set yourself up as a pink-on-black person, right? ]

[How is that possible? She is a naive and innocent person, but the bonus from the ghosts cannot be ignored. ]

[Eh? Are the ghosts so brutal? Can they really be described as brutal if they can be beaten to pieces with just two strikes?]
