The King of the Warring States Era - C56
Chen Ling took the jade sword and weighed it in his hands. The sword was over twenty kilograms and was made from a mixture of Bronze Essence Steel and rare ores, hence the density was rather high, he had only pulled out a third of the sword blade. A burst of cold air rushed in and the blade was extremely sharp, it was enough to cut off many warriors swords.
“Thank you, young master!” Chen Ling was very polite and happy.
“Yes, sir.” Chen Ling covered up very well, at least he had managed to get away with it.
Young Master Wei could not help but nod his head, agreeing with this advisor. The corners of his mouth curled up into a smile, bribing the hearts of people, money, power, fame, sword, beauty, which young hero could resist them?
… ….
Travelling through the ancient era was entirely an accident, but now that he had become a Lieutenant of this era, he had fallen into a political vortex where princes fought for power. It was as if he was treading on thin ice, full of killing paths, and he had to be careful step by step.
“Whatever. Since I’m here, I might as well settle down. At least, I am currently unable to get out of this predicament. The world is big, and there is temporarily no other place for me to stand at.”
Chen Ling was full of energy as he returned to the courtyard of his own residence. Seeing the oil lamp lit inside the Profound Cultivation Room, he did not think too much, and guessed that the servant girl would light every guest’s room on time, when he pushed the door open, he realised that a young lady was sitting in front of the bed in the room. She was wearing a cape and a doormat, her entire body covered in a black cloak, making her look dark and mysterious under the light.
Seeing Chen Ling enter, the young lady raised her head, his beautiful eyes that were like black gems shining brightly under the light, looked at Chen Ling, and with a bit of shyness, he lowered her head and said: “Greetings Childe Chen!”
“Who are you? Why are we here? ” Chen Ling carried the wooden case in his hand as he looked at the young girl kneeling in the room.
The young girl replied softly, “Reporting to Young Noble, I am Yi’er, Master Hou had sent me to serve Childe Chen.”
Chen Ling’s heart trembled. It’s Young Master Wei again, it seems like I can display my worth after killing Jiang Guyuan. Wei Yu started to think hard about winning me over, he just gave me a treasured sword, and now there’s another beauty, a good method.
“Remove the hat and let me take a closer look.” Chen Ling thought that since the Young Master Wei wanted to win his heart, he couldn’t refuse. Otherwise, Wei Yu might think that he didn’t have enough sincerity and submit to his.
The young lady stretched out her jade hand to cover the shadow of her cloak, revealing a pink and charming face, melon seeds on her cheek, exquisite and gorgeous facial features, and soft and curved eyebrows. Under a pair of sparkling and mischievous eyes was a greasy nose, a rosy little mouth, and her hair was loose at the temples; she only used an apricot ribbon to wrap it around her hair.
Chen Ling knew that as long as he was willing, this girl would be his man. However, he did not appear anxious, he first placed the treasure sword box on the table, and then sat on the edge of the bed. He looked at the girl in front of the bed and said: “Stand up, take off the black cloak.”
The girl stood up obediently and took off her outer cloak, revealing a silk robe with lotus leaves on it. There was a silk ribbon tied around her waist, and even though she was dressed in broth, her voluptuous and perky breasts were faintly discernible under the silk robe.
Chen Ling looked at the classical beauty in front of him. He was extremely beautiful, and if you put his in the entertainment circle, he would be a first-rate celebrity. His figure and face were both first-rate and extremely beautiful. “How did you enter the manor?”
Chen Ling frowned, was Yan Nation this chaotic now? Because the history of the War Country was too chaotic, with twenty to thirty of them fighting against each other, and the historical records were also rather superficial, not detailed enough, and it was difficult for them to restore the truth of the history. Therefore, as a future person, although he had read quite a few historical books, it was also very difficult for him to know all the other dukedoms during this period.
“Yan Nation is also one of the top seven warlords, how could she be suppressed by Qi Nation to such a degree?”
Yi’er said with some sadness: “I heard from my village, that all of this was caused by the King of Yan. It led to the civil war between Young Noble and the son of the prime minister, causing the Yan Nation’s vitality to be greatly damaged, thus creating the conditions for the Qi Nation to invade, with no way to stop it. Now, even Yan’er has been captured, and the people of the Yan Nation have suffered, thousands of houses were destroyed in the battle.”
Chen Ling already understood that in the year 316 B.C., King of Yan had done a world shocking thing. He gave the position of emperor to the opposite party, and took back all of the 300 stone seals from the higher officials. In other words, Zi was in charge of the military affairs of Yan Nation.
During the three years of the crown prince’s reign, there had been chaos in the country. General Yan had formed an alliance with the crown prince to oppose the crown prince, and this civil war had resulted in a loss of popularity and a serious weakening of the national power.
Within fifty days, he had occupied Yan City, killing and murdering civilians, burning and robbing them. Yan Nation had suffered a crushing defeat, King of Yan and his son had been killed, and Crown Prince Ping was also killed by the chaotic army in the midst of the civil war. At the same time, Zhongshan Country and the Zhao Nation took the chance to take over a portion of Yan Nation’s territory, causing the entire Yan Nation to be on the verge of destruction.
Just as Chen Ling was thinking back, Yi’er wiped away her tears and revealed a smile: “Childe Chen is different from other men, I heard my sisters say that other men would ravage and toy with us as long as they see us Yan girls, and only Childe Chen is willing to listen to us narrating such sad things, Yi’er is extremely grateful.”
As soon as she said that, she gently untied the silk robe. Then, she gently pulled the silk robe open with her hands. Her shoulders trembled and her silk robe slid down. She was not wearing anything underneath the robe.
