"You wish!" Lady Yan rolled her eyes at Lao Ai and said," I have taken a fancy to your servant girl, Liu Bai He. I want to take her as my disciple and teach her martial arts. Are you willing?"”
"This is great!" " I've wanted to teach her martial arts for a long time," Lao Ai said with a smile." But, all I know is the path of masculinity, which is not suitable for her. You can teach her some sinister and vicious…"
Before Lao Ai could finish his sentence, a gust of wind came from Lady Yan,""Fine, you indirectly said that I'm a vicious female devil. Watch how I deal with you!”
"Murdering her husband!" Lao Ai laughed and dodged.
Concubine Yan was furious and chased after him.
The two of them chased and fled in the palace. Their speed was extremely fast, as if they had entered an uninhabited land.
While Lao Ai and Concubine Yan were fooling around in the Qin Palace, Yan and Zhao were in an uproar.
The capital of Yan Country is Linyi.
In the resplendent hall, the King of Yan sat in the main seat. His gaze swept across the officials with a gloomy expression.
In the center of the hall was Yan Dan's corpse sent by the State of Zhao.
Yan Dan had been poisoned by Lao Ai's energy absorption technique, and was now a dried human. In the modern world, he would be an Egyptian mummy.
"King Yan!" The messenger knelt on the ground and said in a trembling voice,"We had no idea that the crown prince was killed in our country. When we found out, he, he had already become like this…The King of Zhao and the ministers speculated that it must be the work of the various dukes. They wanted to drive a wedge between us and make us kill each other so that they could benefit from it!”
Prince Xi of Yan wore a crown on his head and his eyes were sharp.
"Come out!" Yan Wangxi said coldly.

Several Yan soldiers rushed out under the lead of the Imperial Army. When they saw the Zhao envoy, their eyes turned cold and they gritted their teeth.
"Great King! It was the Zhao Army who killed the Crown Prince! At that time, we were all there. The Zhao army was extremely cruel and killed all the other companions!”
"The dialect of the Zhao army, the charging formation, and the tone of the general, we have experienced it personally. Your Majesty, the Crown Prince's corpse is not cold yet. You have to seek justice for him!”
The Yan army roared loudly and cried. They hated the Zhao army to the core.
Cold sweat broke out on the envoy's forehead. His face was pale as he said in a trembling voice,"Your Majesty, it's a misunderstanding. It's definitely a misunderstanding! How could the Zhao army kill the Crown Prince of Yan Country? Impossible, impossible…It must be a conspiracy of the various vassals!”
At this moment, with the witness present, how could King Xi of Yan believe the messenger of Zhao!
"Men! Chop the messenger of Zhao into meat paste! From today onwards, prepare for war. I will personally lead 200,000 troops to attack Zhao!”
"Here!"
"King Yan, spare my life! Ah…"
The next day, Handan, the capital of Zhao.
Bang!
Zhao Wangyan smashed the coffee table with a punch and said angrily,""The King of Yan killed my messenger and sent an army to attack me. This is too much!”
"Your Majesty, please calm down!" "Things have come to this point, and there is no room for change. We can only lead the army to fight!"”
The Yan Country's 200,000-strong army was gathering. Their goal was the border of the Zhao Country. It was impossible for them to return empty-handed. A war was inevitable.
"The King of Yan is really stupid!" Zhao Wangyan scolded," He can't even see through such an obvious scheme. Why did he have to make such a big move? Does he really think that there's no one in Zhao?" If he wants to fight, then fight. Why should we be afraid of him?“
In history, Yan and Zhao had fought many times, and the Zhao Kingdom had won more than lost. They had gained many advantages by attacking cities and seizing territory.
"Great King!" General Yue Cheng bowed and said," Since we have to fight, we will fight. But why not invite Qin to attack Yan first?" If Qin makes a move, we will definitely win!”
"I'll do as you say!" Wang Yan's eyes lit up. I will immediately send an envoy to Qin!”
"No, Your Majesty!" Another official stood out and said loudly,"Qin, a country of tigers and wolves, is insatiable. How can we fight with it? At that time, the Qin country would be capricious, and the Zhao country would lose its soldiers and cities!”
"You know nothing!" Le Cheng looked at the minister in disdain.""The Yan Country is mostly on the Zhao Country's side. If we defeat the Yan Country, the Zhao Country will get the most benefits. The Qin Country is further away and will definitely not ask for an exorbitant price! As long as we promise benefits to the Qin Country in advance, after we defeat the Yan Country and obtain a large number of cities, we can earn back our capital and interest!”
"Good! Let's do it this way!"
As soon as Zhao Wangyan ascended the throne, he dismissed Lianpo from his military position. Lianpo was furious and led his troops to attack the new general Yue Cheng. Yue Cheng escaped and Lianpo had no choice but to flee to another country. Yue Cheng took control of the Zhao army and became Zhao Wangyan's confidant.
——————————
Qin royal palace, Universal Palace.
Ying Zheng sat at the head of the table, while Lu Buwei and the other ministers sat at the lower seats. Lao Ai stood behind Ying Zheng, clad in armor.
Amongst the ministers, there was an extremely beautiful youth. She was Gan Luo, a 12-year-old woman who had disguised herself as a man. She was the grandson of Gan Mao, the former prime minister of the State of Qin, and the descendant of a famous family.
Seeing the message sent back by the spies of Qin State in Yan and Zhao, Ying Zheng was overjoyed.
"That's great! Yanzhao is about to start a war, how can our Great Qin sit idly by? We can benefit from it!"
In fact, the one who was the most excited about the war between Yan and Zhao was not Ying Zheng, but Lu Buwei, because his fief was right at the border of Zhao. If he could seize a batch of cities of Zhao, he could expand his fief.
Gan Luo was a peerless child prodigy, the best chess player in the world. Ying Zheng, Lu Buwei and the others were not her match. In addition to her eloquence, none of the officials in the court could stump her. Ying Zheng also valued her ability, so he obeyed Lu Buwei and granted her the title of Governor of Pingzhang, a fourth-grade official, equivalent to the advisor of the Prime Minister.
Lu Buwei twirled his beard and smiled,"Great Qin is just lacking an excuse to send troops! However, he did not know when this opportunity would come.”
Seeing that Gan Luo was about to speak, Lao Ai coughed, stepped forward and said,""Your Majesty, I think that the envoy from Zhao is on his way to Qin or has already arrived!”
"What do you mean?" Ying Zheng asked doubtfully.
Lao Ai shouted," Prince Yan of Zhao has just ascended the throne, and he has already driven Lianpo away. He has put Yue Cheng, who has no real talent, in an important position. He does not have the ability to judge people, and he will lose his mind when dealing with important matters! If the Yan Country's 200,000-strong army invaded the Zhao Country, even if the Zhao Country had the ability to resist, they would think that they had no chance of winning and would think of ways to drag Great Qin down! "If Great Qin sends out its troops, it will definitely defeat the Yan Country. Due to the distance, the cities that we capture will fall into the hands of the Zhao Country, and the Zhao Country will only need to compensate Great Qin…This is a deal that will definitely benefit us. The useless Zhao King Yan will definitely send an envoy to Great Qin!”
After listening to Lao Ai's analysis, Ying Zheng, Lu Buwei, and all the officials and generals in the court were surprised. They had never noticed that this little eunuch had such a penetrating insight at such a critical moment!
As for Gan Luo, he snorted and gave Lao Ai a fierce glare with his beautiful eyes.
This kid had stolen her limelight!
Because what Lao Ai said was exactly what she wanted to say!
