Chapter 156 Not a Tool
The King of the Wolf?
Ying Jing did have some recollection of it; the assassins under Wei Zhuang's Reverse Sands command did indeed initially serve the King of Han.
However, this guy was just average; he was easily defeated by Gao Jianli more than twenty years later.
"Just a nobody," Ying Jing shook his head, not paying any attention.
On the other hand, Han Wang'an really dared to make a move!
"Thanks to the master sending out the Six Sword Slaves and Black and White Xuanjian, King Han still has a few experts under his command..."
Yan Lingji continued her report, explaining that she hadn't been at the post station yesterday because Ying Jing had sent her out early to handle the Baiyue treasure matter.
There are multiple locations where the treasure is hidden, and she went to the one closest to Xinzheng, which was also information that Madam Mingzhu had revealed in advance.
Although South Korea is weak, that is only in comparison. As the King of Han, he does have some resources under his command.
Although the people sent by King Han An did not have any top experts, there were one or two who had mastered the "intention".
However, facing the well-prepared Luo Wang, and even with experts like the Six Sword Slaves and Hei Bai Xuan Jian in charge, they naturally did not have a good ending.
"Not a single master who has grasped the 'power'? King Han is truly in a sorry state..."
Ying Jing felt a pang of sympathy for King Han An; no wonder Lady Mingzhu could cause so much trouble in the harem.
"Bai Yifei shouldn't have made a move. What about Ji Wuye?"
Yan Lingji rolled her eyes at him, then played with her slender fingers, her pink nails particularly striking.
"We haven't encountered any of Ji Wuye's men. Perhaps Yingge's side succeeded..."
It was truly outrageous that Ji Wuye sent Ying Ge to Ying Jing.
Perhaps Ji Wuye wanted to curry favor with Ying Jing on one hand, and plant a spy next to Ying Jing on the other.
But this kind of tactic was something Lü Buwei had already used long ago, and the benevolent Jing had already experienced it.
Even Lü Buwei couldn't gain any advantage over Ying Jing using such methods, losing both his wife and his army. How much more so would Ji Wuye?
However, while Ying Jing had the patience to slowly "reform" him back then, he has become much more ruthless now.
After being persuaded with reason and emotion, Yingge finally reformed, abandoned his evil ways, and successfully left Bai Niao to join Luo Wang.
Perhaps the treatment offered by Luo Wang was too good, because she even wanted to bring her two friends, Mo Ya and Bai Feng, to join Luo Wang as well.
"Ji Wuye won't break ties with me now, and the matter of Bai Niao isn't a big problem either."
Ying Jing thought about it for a moment and realized it wasn't a big deal.
Yan Lingji continued, "There was a man named Han Qiancheng who seemed to have some background, but he was killed by Xuan Jian with a single sword strike."
Han Qiancheng?
He seems to be the adopted son of Han Yu, one of the four noblemen of South Korea.
Unlike Han Fei, this fourth prince of Han was always ambitious and wanted to replace the crown prince.
However, after Ying Jing's machinations, even Han Fei and Wei Zhuang seem insignificant in the face of this overwhelming force.
Han Yu and Han Qiancheng are nothing.
"Han Yu's men are just small fry, but they're quite bold to dare touch my things."
Ying Jing didn't take it to heart; it wouldn't hurt to bring one more person with him when Han Fei went to Qin later.
Even a prince of a nation isn't so unattainable in this turbulent era.
There's a prince from Zhao suffering in Qin... Once he's on our territory, he can do whatever he wants with us.
"Any more?"
Ying Jing continued to ask.
"Is this all the master has to say to me?"
Seeing that Ying Jing seemed to still be considering these matters, Yan Lingji's resentment intensified, and she became genuinely annoyed.
Are they using her as a tool?
Although Yan Lingji, this enchantress, did not evoke the same sense of guilt in Jing Dashan as Nongyu, she did have her own methods.
With a flick of her crystal heel, Yan Lingji's fair and rounded toes came together, her toes pressed firmly against the ground, her arches curved, her skin white with a hint of pink.
She removed a layer of blue dress, the close-fitting garments barely concealing her ample breasts; her fair, translucent skin seemed to glow with moisture, and her long, slender legs were encircled by a black stocking…
"hiss!"
When did this woman learn to dress like this?
Ying Jing could only offer him some words of comfort.
