A Romantic Story of a Girl from the Qin Dynasty
Chapter 367: Scheme against each other
The struggle between Qin and Zhao, which cost people and money but had to be fought, has begun again.
Li Mu originally planned to get rid of Guo Kai with Lian Po, but things took a turn for the worse. Not only did he once again wear armor and go into battle, but Guo seemed to be ignored by the king.
Guo Kai originally thought that by capturing Li Mu's foster sister for the king's amusement, he could get some benefits, but he didn't expect that Zhao Yan had rewarded Guo Kai with a large number of jewels the day before, and then disappeared behind closed doors to Guo Kai the next day!
He didn't know the reason, and thought that the monarch was addicted to women and was not feeling well, so he didn't see her. However, after several days of petitioning, Zhao Yan still didn't leave the palace gate and called the eunuch to reject him.
"You shot yourself in the foot!"
Guo Kai was so frustrated that he went back home without even seeing the king's face. He couldn't figure out the reason no matter how hard he thought about it along the way. The only reason was that Li Mu's adopted sister gave the king the ecstasy soup and didn't even listen to his own words. !
"I underestimated that woman's tricks! I actually invited a demon concubine into the palace. If the king listens to her, then Li Mu will skyrocket! I, Guo Kai, will be trampled under his feet?!"
Demon concubine, Li Xi, who has been in the palace for a few days, really feels like a demon concubine who has brought disaster to the country! Accompanying the king all day long, making him ignore Chao Gang, but it doesn't matter. Li Xi doesn't care what happens to the Zhao Kingdom. The only thing she cares about is Li Mu being good. As long as Li Mu is good, she won't be able to care if the sky falls!
Relying on Zhao Yan's nostalgia for his skin, his life was pretty good, but it was just that he couldn't see Li Mu again, which made him very sad.
Fortunately, Zhao Yan's exaggerated love had some effect. After listening to Li Xi's words, he not only sent Li Mu off to the expedition in person, but also specially took her with him.
The two met again, separated by the monarch, with Li Mu as his minister and Li Xi as his concubine. Naturally, we can't talk freely like before. Li Xi couldn't get close to Li Mu again and could only watch from a distance, watching what he was talking to Zhao Yan.
We haven’t seen each other for a long time, but my brother seems to be quite energetic. Just one look from a distance makes Li Xi burst into tears. From the time they met until now, there is an insurmountable ditch between them, and it seems that they will miss each other forever.
"Li Mu, Gu will personally send you off to the expedition this time. You must not disappoint Gu! Let the arrogant Qin army see that our Zhao country has not fallen to the point where we cannot deal with these barbarians!"
"Yes... the general will obey the order."
Li Mu saluted Zhao Yan. He didn't know what kind of medicine the monarch was selling in his gourd. He hated himself so much before, but now he treated him with the same respect as before.
"Thanks to your adopted sister for speaking for you, Gu is willing to listen to her. In this battle, you just follow your own plan and there is no need to send anyone to report."
"This……"
Li Mu looked at Zhao Yan and didn't understand even more.
"Your Majesty, you know very well that she is the adopted sister of the general and is not Shimiya at all. Why...are you still keeping her by your side?"
Zhao Yan raised his hand to signal Li Mu to stop talking.
"Gu naturally knows that she is not Shikiya, how could she be Shiya? After spending many days with her, Gu discovered that although she looks similar to Shimiya, her personality, behavior and expression are different from Shikiya's. They are different... the subtle changes between people are really magical. They obviously have the same skin, but if there are these differences, this person... doesn't look very similar."
Zhao Yan saw a few white hairs exposed on Li Mu's forehead, shook his head and sighed.
"I just want someone with the same skin as Shiya to accompany me, and that's enough! Don't worry, your adopted sister, I will not treat you lightly."
He patted Li Mu's shoulder, and the touch was like cold armor.
"You have kept her by your side for many years. Isn't it because she is similar to Shiya that you hide her in your house and refuse to show it to others?"
"Do not……"
Li Mugang wanted to refute, but Guo Kai on the side urged him:
"Your Majesty, the auspicious time has come, it's time for the general to set off!"
This damn traitor, Li Mu rolled his eyes at Guo Kai, wishing he could put him to death on the spot, but now that he held an important position, it was not a good opportunity, so he could only watch him prance around in front of the king like a clown.
"Go ahead..."
Zhao Yan waved his hand towards Li Mu, but Li Mu couldn't say more.
Li Xi stood watching from a distance. Her eyes were all on Li Mu's every move, as if the other people around her didn't exist. She watched carefully, watching the subtle expressions on Li Mu's face. The change in expression reflected all of this in his mind.
When they parted, Li Mu saluted Zhao Yan, then raised his head and glanced at Li Xi in the distance. In just an instant, Li Xi also caught the care he conveyed.
I wanted to say something, but I couldn't. Li Xi wanted to remember what he looked like when he left, but his eyes were blurry and the tears could not be wiped away.
"Let's go..."
Zhao Yan watched the team go further and further, turned around and headed back, facing the rising sun, Li Mu gradually disappeared at the end of the mountains.
"Your Majesty, your Majesty is really good at telling our king to stop favoring other women and only favor you."
Guo Kai finally saw the demon concubine and saw Zhao Yan walking in front, so he naturally took advantage of the opportunity to say a few words.
How could Li Xi take his cynicism to heart? She sneered and said sarcastically
"What I am today is all thanks to the blessing and grace of the Prime Minister's country. How could I forget it?"
"you……"
The two looked at each other with sparks in their eyes
"The Prime Minister led the troops and dragged me into the palace. The reason why I am so wealthy today is not due to the Prime Minister."
Seeing that the girl in front of him was young but quite capable of intersex, Guo Kai looked at her arrogant look and really looked down on her. When she walked out of the Li Mansion with such a weak and helpless look, he really thought she was... There’s the little white rabbit that I have to handle! Now he has changed his face and suddenly kicked himself on the head!
"Don't dare, don't dare, how can I, a small minister, take this credit? It's all my queen's service that satisfies the king. How can it have anything to do with a small minister?"
Guo Kai lowered his head and was cautious about his words and actions, deeply afraid that this woman would make some tricks in front of the monarch. Now the monarch's brain is muddled, how could he listen to him!
"My beloved concubine, come..."
Zhao Yan, who was not far away, called out and stretched out his hand to Li Xi, gesturing for him to get on the carriage.
Li Xi smiled at Zhao Yan, seemingly innocent, but he said something to Guo Kai
"Prime Minister, the days are long, let's wait and see!"
Li Mu's expedition this time seemed like the monarch had given all the military power to him, but in reality, how could one general mobilize thousands of troops? There must be deputy generals to assist him, and one of these deputy generals was the same as Guo Kai. Hu Zou has been secretly coming and going for a long time!
Guo Kai was so cunning that he quietly arranged for his confidants to participate in this expedition, not for meritorious service, but to prevent Li Mu from being "accidentally" killed by the Qin army!
