Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 797 Urging the battle
  The three of them were walking in the military camp. Xiaomeng looked at Gu Xun in disbelief and said in surprise:

"Are you a national master!?"

"Didn't you say you were a doctor?"

Gu Xun shrugged and said with a smile, "Is there any conflict between the two?"

"The former is an identity, and the latter is a profession. I know medical skills, and I was appointed by the King of Qin as the national advisor of the State of Qin."

Xiaomeng rolled her eyes.

"Then why don't you say you are a national master, but just a doctor?"

"I think you just want to pretend to be mysterious, but at this time... well, it shocked me unexpectedly."

Xiaomeng in the pre-Qin period didn't know how to pretend to be a pig to eat a tiger, show off to others as a saint, pretend to be a slap in the face, etc... modern vocabulary, but this did not prevent her from explaining such behaviors in her own way.

After several days of communication and running-in, the relationship between Xiaomeng, Gu Xun, and Zhang Han has become much closer. Of course, the verbal conversations between them are still not friendly.

Gu Xun was extremely surprised by this.

The Xiao Meng in his impression... Well, as the head of Tianzong, Xiao Meng's speech was not very likable, but at least his attitude towards others was extremely indifferent and his emotions could not be called rich.

He thought that this good young man of Tianzong should be more in line with the Taoist state of forgetting love since he was a child. Who would have thought that... to put it nicely, he would be more lively and cheerful.

If it's a bit ugly...don't mention it.

Even though she had just encountered a catastrophe of life and death, and all her relatives were wiped out, it did not make her become taciturn and silent.

Just outrageous.

But it’s a good thing. For a seven or eight-year-old girl, it’s good to be lively.

Gu Xun naturally didn't recognize a word of Xiao Meng's accusation and denied it:

"I didn't say anything at the time, I was just worried that you would be scared. After all, the people in the entire Shandong region have a bad sense of the Qin State. My status as a national master may scare a little girl like you."

Gu Xun deliberately emphasized the last few words, emphasizing that Xiao Meng is just a child now.

The biggest characteristic, or problem, of this little girl is that she is a brat, likes to pretend to be an adult, and hates others treating her like a child.

Based on the concept that if the enemy doesn't want it, we will force it through. Gu Xun often emphasizes this point in front of Xiaomeng.

Every time, the results are great.

This time is no exception.

Xiaomeng immediately sneered, twisted her face, which was not much bigger than Gu Xun's open palm, and responded:
  "Master Imperial Master!"

"With so many thoughts on your mind, are you following the Qin State and doing so many bad things that you feel guilty about it?"

Gu Xun and Zhang Han didn't have much reaction to these words, but the soldier leading the way could not help but sweat on his face.

Xiaomeng didn't wait for anyone else to respond and continued:
  "Also, as a national advisor, shouldn't your main task be to stay in Xianyang to deceive the King of Qin? Why did you come to the front line?"

"Could it be that you want to use your magical skills as a national advisor to help the Qin army attack Daliang City?"

Gu Xun didn't respond to the first sentence, but nodded to the second sentence, "Didn't I tell you about this a long time ago?"

"Ha!" Xiao Meng raised the corners of her eyes and replied with a smile, "Really?"

"But along the way, Sir, your horse rode slower than a donkey. It is still a BMW that can travel thousands of miles a day!"

"If you are such a good horse rider, you can't move as fast as an old woman. What can you do?"

"You can't even fly, how can you be a national master?"

Zhang Han's mouth twitched and he wanted to laugh, but he couldn't, at least not out loud.

Gu Xun opened his mouth, wanting to refute her by saying that he could fly. But after a second thought, I felt that it was a bit too childish, so I kept my mouth shut.

"as long as you are happy……"

Before Xiaomeng could be happy that Gu Xun bowed his head and gave in, he heard Gu Xun's inverted sentence.

"…as a child."

Xiaomeng: "..."

But this time she couldn't fight back again because she was almost there.

"Do you want to go with us to see Wang Ben?" Gu Xun quickly changed the subject and asked.

"...No, I'm not interested in seeing you accepting bribes from the Qin generals." Xiaomeng Yanyan suppressed the idea of ​​counterattack, but said a small part of Gu Xun's words.

Of course, the actual reason is that she has a general sense of Qin and is unwilling to contact the officials and generals of Qin.

Gu Xun and Zhang Han are currently the only two exceptions.

Gu Xun and the two naturally knew Xiaomeng's attitude towards Qin, and were not surprised by her answer.

Gu Xun directly ordered the soldier who led the way to take Xiaomeng elsewhere to rest until they finished meeting Wang Ben.

…………

Outside the handsome tent, Wang Ben greeted Gu Xun and the others with a bright smile.

As the most powerful military family in the Qin State, the Wang family has always been known for its low-key behavior. Except for the names of their father and son that frequently appear on the battlefield and in military reports, news about them is rarely heard on other occasions.

Wang Ben was not as calm and reserved as his father. He was relatively more active. He was very enthusiastic about Gu Xun's arrival and had no airs of a great general of the country.

But the time was in a hurry and the conditions in the military camp were difficult. Don't even think about banquets. It would be nice if the three of us could sit down and have a cup of tea.

In the handsome tent, the three of them sat in rows. Wang Ben immediately asked:
  "The Imperial Guard has arrived at the frontline camp, but what important matters need to be done?"

Gu Xun didn't go around in circles and nodded directly and replied, "There is something very important."

"Oh? If you have any questions, the Imperial Master will tell you directly. If someone can help, I will never refuse." Wang Ben replied bluntly.

Unlike Wang Jian, he does not mind showing kindness to others although he does not take the initiative to seek the limelight.

Of course, it is not feasible to form cliques for personal gain and threaten the royal power, but the Wang family does not have no human contact at all. Wang Jian can just avoid taboos by himself.

As for a 'junior' like him, it doesn't matter if he is a little provocative, as long as he pays attention to his sense of proportion.

Gu Xun, a national master with unknown origins, unclear fortune, and strong royal family ties, was a good friend worth making for him.

Hearing this, Gu Xun chuckled and replied, "This matter really requires the support of General Wang Ben."

"Gu hopes to end the Battle of Daliang as soon as possible."

Wang Ben's brows suddenly knitted together, and he immediately asked cautiously, "Is this...what does the king mean?"

Gu Xun shook his head, "His Majesty the King of Qin naturally hopes that the war will end as soon as possible, but my coming to see the general is just a private matter."

Wang Ben's brows suddenly widened again.

It's not as long as the king comes in person to urge the battle.

"I understand how the Imperial Master cares about the Qin Dynasty and hopes to destroy the Wei Dynasty as soon as possible. However, Daliang is the strongest city in the world, and there is no need to rush to destroy the city." Wang Ben did not mind the inexplicable behavior of a man who was looking for a magic stick in ancient times. He came to interfere with his war and replied in a friendly voice, "In fact, a certain family has made arrangements and will definitely be able to break through Daliang City in the shortest time."

"But, hey, it still takes some time."
