Careerist in Qin Dynasty

Chapter 160 Good guy Lu Wei
The situation on the Zhao battlefield has undergone new changes.

There was civil strife in the Yan Kingdom, and King Xi of Yan suddenly died suddenly.Some rumors from the outside world say that Prince Dan killed his father, while others said that a powerful man seized power and killed the king.

Before the Qin army arrived in Jicheng, a civil war broke out. In the end, led by the Mohist white tiger machine beast, Yan Dan won and drove away the opponents.

But this was just the beginning of a civil unrest.

Those defeated dignitaries fled to Liaodong in large numbers, where they established a new clan as the King of Yan and mobilized troops to correspond with Yan Danyuan in Jicheng.

On the one hand, Yan Dan declared these powerful people to be treason, and on the other hand, after inheriting the throne, he once again recruited soldiers from the people who had been plundered to resist the attack of the powerful Liaodong Army.

The domestic situation was reported through various channels, including the Qin spies trying to fish in troubled waters, and the Yan army on the front line immediately broke into chaos.
If Wang Jian couldn't seize this opportunity, then he wouldn't be called Wang Jian anymore.The Qin army decisively and quietly shifted its primary target from Handan City to the Yan army that was facing off in the wild. A crushing battle was about to break out.
It was under this circumstance that masters and disciples Nianduan and Duanmurong were going south to the land of old Wuyue.

Duan Murong didn't know how to drive, but something went wrong very quickly. The two horses almost lost control of their movements. Fortunately, Nian Duan was still awake and took over the riding whip to control the carriage.

Calmly handing the reins to little Duanmu's hands, Nian Duanmu patiently taught his disciples basic driving skills just like when teaching medicine.

Duan Murong felt guilty and studied very seriously.This pair of master and apprentice learned slowly but firmly while traveling.

After leaving the Taihang Mountains, Nianduan was able to return to the carriage and rest peacefully. The loss of energy caused by her teachings was aggravated.

Arriving at a fork in the road ahead of time, the master of the hall rode his horse and walked slowly along the roadside. The carriage beside him kept galloping away. In the end, the driver chose the left road.

'It's time for me to appear~'

The time has come for the first time to provide help in times of need.

The carriage body driven by the doctor's master and apprentice this time is relatively wide, which can certainly make the journey more comfortable for the people in the carriage, but when it comes to the choice of driving road, they are destined to choose a wider and smoother target.

And such roads are often more likely to be targeted by thieves from all walks of life.

A spacious carriage generally represents wealth and status. Its owner will always have guards on guard when traveling. Of course, thieves will not attack the stone with an egg.

But a spacious carriage with a small number of people like the doctor's master and his apprentice, all of whom were women, was destined to be coveted by the Jianghu thieves in Zhao who had become increasingly chaotic since the beginning of the war.

Even though Nian Duan and Duan Murong both have martial arts skills, Nian Duan's physical condition makes it impossible for them to take action all the time. Only a little girl can't suppress his greed.

All he had to do was wait quietly, and he would naturally have the best chance to take action.

In Jicheng, Yan Wangdan received a report from a disciple of the Mohist family that the doctor's master and apprentice had gone south to Chu. He regretfully waved his hand and let the disciple go.

The medical power represented by Nian Duan and Duan Murong was very important to the Yan State and the Mohist family.

If he hadn't been the king of Yan and couldn't leave Jicheng so easily, and there were still a lot of domestic and foreign affairs that needed to be handled by him personally, Yan Dan, the doctor's master and apprentice, would really want to go and invite people to Yan.

"First deal with the rebellion in the north, and then send a letter in the name of the Yan royal family to invite the doctors to come to Yan."

After adjusting the crown on his head, he spent only a short time thinking about the problem and put it behind him.

Doctors are nothing but trivial matters now.

He is the King of Yan, so national affairs are more worthy of his concern.

"Your Majesty, Prime Minister Ju Wu requests an audience."

The little eunuch's high-pitched voice reached his ears. Yan Dan nodded. After a while, Ju Wu, who had been appointed as the prime minister, walked in with a calm expression.

He knelt down and held his hands in his hands: "Your Majesty, with the cooperation of General Yan and the Mohist disciples as military aid, we have become a large army in Zhao's army."

"This is just a temporary measure." Yan Dan raised his hand to signal the eunuch to give the teacher a seat: "Can General Yan take the initiative to launch an offensive in the near future to win?"

"Now, both the Yan Army and Jicheng on the front line need good news to cheer up!"

It is a military taboo for the rear to urgently urge the front line to attack. This is something Yan Dan understood when he was a prince.But now that he has become the queen of Yan, he vividly understands why such a simple truth has been wrong many times in history.

A victory, even a small victory, is really important in a chaotic domestic situation.

Now that Yan has two kings, he must have a victory over Qin to encourage the people to recognize him as the king.

"Let General Yan decide what to do. If it doesn't work, give priority to stabilizing the defense line."

At the end of the day, Yan Dan still did not give the order to attack.

"Yes, I understand." Ju Wu then reported on the domestic economic and civil affairs within their control. These are long-standing and difficult problems that are extremely difficult to solve.

Yan Dan rubbed her temples and discussed solutions with Ju Wu one by one.Although it is difficult, he has determined since childhood to become a great King of Yan like King Yan Zhao, and he must do his best.

In the harem, Queen Yan Yun came up from the underground secret passage with bloody hands.She was wearing a phoenix crown, and at a glance she saw Lord Yin-Yang of the Yin-Yang Family, dressed as a palace maid, holding his daughter.

The two women are both poisonous and full of hatred. After getting along for a period of time, they understand each other and have formed an incredible tacit understanding.

No words are needed, they automatically keep the deal going.

For Concubine Yan, although her 'good sister' Yueshen has never come from Xianyang for some reason, with the cooperation of Yan Yun, revenge can still be carried out.
"asshole!"

Xiao Duanmu raised his hand and threw out three silver needles, inserting them into the chest of the thief with a stubble and scrawling on him with a grin on his face, sealing his meridians and causing him to pass out.

She stood in front of the two horses, protecting the carriage behind her, and stared warily at the eight thieves of luxurious clothing who were approaching her step by step.Not far from her feet, two people had fallen.

The appearance of these thieves did not match the material of their clothes at all. Some of the clothes had black blood stains on their chests. The fate of the original owners of the clothes was self-evident.

The thieves had different weapons. Three of them held swords, two held axes, and the remaining three held farm tools.

They are all very thin. Even after working as thieves for several years, they still suffer from hunger, and their days of robbing homes are always unstable.

"The little girl has such a bad temper, I hope she can keep it up for a while~"

The leader of the thieves holding the sword had an evil look in his eyes. He himself remained motionless and viciously sent his men forward one by one to consume the silver needle in Duan Murong's hand.

It's rare to meet a woman with such fine skin and tender flesh, so she can't get hurt.

Wait until it has no strength before playing with it ~

The beads of sweat on his forehead clung to his hair. Xiao Duanmu held the last six silver needles in both hands with a sharp look in his eyes. Instead of throwing them out, he rushed forward and used the silver needles as melee weapons to fight with these thieves. .

This is the third wave of thieves encountered along the way, and it is also the most dangerous wave.Half an hour ago, Duan Murong restrained the second wave of five thieves.

But in the final analysis, these people were just ordinary farmers with no martial arts skills. Even though she was just a doctor who did not focus on martial arts, she still had the blessing of inner strength.

With one enemy against many, Xiao Duanmu can move back and forth among the thieves and accurately insert the silver needle into the thieves' acupuncture points, forcing them to lose their ability to fight.

However, the thieves can reduce their number by a few, but Duan Murong cannot make any mistakes, otherwise...
"Hmm" The first target that Xiao Duanmu wants to deal with is of course the more lethal enemies with swords and axes.

But accidentally, she was hit hard on the back by a thief holding a hoe, and then another thief holding a long-handled farm tool took the opportunity to hit Duan Murong's knees.

Biting his lip and humming, little Duanmu threw out half of the silver needles in his hand before falling to the ground, and inserted them into the necks of the three careless thieves.
After rolling to the ground and dodging the attack of a thief, the little girl endured the pain and stood up.

She now has three silver needles left in her hand, and there are three thieves left, including the thieves leader who is finally ready to take action.

'It's time for me to take action, otherwise Nianduan in the carriage will take action. '

Before the two doctors and apprentices ran out of water, most of the wild thieves were ordinary people.But the situation is enough for now. Anyway, my real confidence is the energy pill that keeps Nian Duan alive.

The two thieves, one holding an ax and the other holding a sword, rushed towards Duan Murong. Just as the silver needles in the hands of Duan Murong and Nian Duan in the carriage were about to be released, a sword that broke through the air flew over with a roar!

Without any suspense, the sword energy accurately sliced ​​open the throats of the two thieves.

"This is." Staring at the simple wavy broad sword stuck on the ground, little Duanmu remembered the owner of this sword.
"Hmph!" A cold snort accompanied the sound of his robe cutting through the air. Lu Wei's figure jumped out from behind the carriage, passed Duan Murong, took the Sea Swallowing Sword from a distance, and lightly decapitated the sluggish leader of the thieves.

Before the leader's head fell to the ground, the hall master sheathed his sword and ducked to Xiao Duanmu's side, holding her arm to steady her shaky body:

"Miss Duanmu, how are you injured?"

The calm voice reached her ears, and when she recognized it, Duan Murong could finally relax, her tense nerves immediately relaxed, and her feet felt weak.
------

After carrying little Duanmu to the carriage and sitting on it, the master of the hall opened the curtain of the carriage and saw Nian Duan inside, pretending to be unconscious.

By checking his pulse, he had a rough idea of ​​the medical master's physical condition: if he stopped worrying about it, he could still last for about four months.

Not too bad either.

After giving Nian Duan a piece of rejuvenation energy, he did not take out the energy pill he had prepared before, but calmly lowered the curtain.

Turning around and seeing Duan Murong staring at him with his eyelashes blinking, Lu Wei understood in his heart and chuckled:
"Miss Duanmu, please go into the carriage and rest. Just leave the rest of the journey to Lu."

"Thank you, Senior Lu."

Little Duanmu lowered his eyebrows and entered the carriage.

But after a while, she came out again.

I put on a new set of clothes and applied some medicine to my injuries. My mental state is much better:
"Why did Senior Lu come here?"

Recalling the instructions her master had given her before setting off in the Taihang Mountains, Duan Murong carefully tested Hall Master Lu's words and focused on driving.

"Lu came here specifically after your carriage~"

As soon as Lu Wei opened his mouth, Xiao Duanmu was startled, but the former did not stop and continued: "Lu has been worried about the safety of the two doctors since the separation of Han Dan Juan, so he specially sent a farmer disciple to pretend to be Orion is waiting."

The master of the hall was very honest and confirmed the guesses that the two doctors had already guessed: "This year, I learned that Dr. Nianduan was going back to the land of old Wuyue. Lu immediately asked the farmer's disciples to bring a carriage in the hope of helping the doctor. And in order not to He broke the doctor's rules and told his disciples not to give away the money for free, but to accept the money!"

"The situation in Zhao country is bad, and the two doctors may be in danger if they walk alone. Lu happened to be on the border of Zhao country, so he planned to escort him."

"Fortunately it came at the right time."

Lu Weixuan was confident and upright. Duan Murong had no doubts and just nodded gently: "Thanks to Senior Lu indeed. Senior's kindness will be kept in mind by Duan Murong."

Nian Duan, who was pretending to be unconscious in the carriage, heard the conversation outside the carriage and couldn't help but sigh in his heart:

"Rong'er doesn't understand the unpredictable nature of people's hearts after all."
