Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 832 Medicine
  Seeing that it was useful, Gu Xun put the things away calmly and responded, "I borrowed this thing from someone else. Don't worry, she has a good relationship with me and it was not robbed."

"Who?" Dianqing seemed to realize that he was a little excited. At this time, he regained his composure, but he still couldn't help but ask.

Gu Xun just smiled and had no intention of telling him.

On the other hand, Jianqing himself seemed to have thought of something and did not ask any further questions.

This piece of jade is an important token. After Lord Xinling's death, his old subordinates have been looking for it, but unfortunately they have found nothing.

Ceremonies are also included.

Based on the cause of death of Lord Xinling, in theory, the person most likely to take away this object is the Jing Salamander among the Eight Swords of the King of Yue.

Dianqing now suspects that Gu Xun got this thing from Jing Salamander.

However, he could only make this inference. As for the relationship between Jing Salamander and Gu Xun and Ayan's identity, they were still unknown to most forces in the world, and the Armored Sect was no exception.

"Now, are you still unwilling to cooperate?" Gu Xun put away the necklace and asked Dianqing again.

Jianqing was silent for a moment and responded, "This just represents another grudge."

"The death of Lord Xinling..."

Gu Xun shook his head and denied, "No, no, no, this thing was given to others on his own initiative during his lifetime."

"I can guarantee that it was absolutely of his own free will."

There was some hesitation on Dianqing Fangzheng's face.

If what Gu Xun said was true, that thing might not have been obtained from Jing Salamander.

Dianqing knew that Lord Xinling doted on the Jing Salamander lurking beside him at the beginning, but it was impossible for a doting concubine to get his token no matter what.

No matter how much you like it, you won't give it as a token as a gift. It's not like there are no treasures in Lord Xinling's mansion, there are many gifts.

Entrusting a token must have a deeper purpose.

And this purpose cannot circumvent the most basic use of tokens in any case - to gain people's trust and serve as a symbol of status.

In other words, if he still believed in his old master, Lord Ling, he should obey the orders of the owner of the token.

Of course, maybe Gu Xun was simply lying to him. This token was simply obtained by Jing Salamander after he killed Lord Xinling, or was stolen or robbed during his lifetime. In short, it was obtained by unfair means.

For Jianqing, this is the second choice he faces today.

After thinking about it again and again, Dianqing sighed slightly and asked, "What are you going to let us do?"

This is tantamount to being submissive in disguise and willing to obey Gu Xun's request.

If it were just a matter of tokens, Dianqing would not easily choose to trust Gu Xun.

Lord Xinling is dead and the Wei State has also been destroyed. Facing this token, he can choose the most conservative attitude - unless it is confirmed to be true, he will not acknowledge it until death.

But coupled with the safety issues of the armored disciples who already made him waver, the tilt of the balance was inevitable.

After all, you have to take care of the people who are still alive.

Seeing Dianqing bow his head, Gu Xun smiled and replied in a brisk tone, "The decision has not yet been decided, but you can rest assured that I will not let you participate in Qin's foreign war."

"..." The vague answer made Dianqing feel that the future was still unclear, but he didn't have the qualifications to bargain, so he didn't say anything.

Gu Xun made the final arrangement, "I have other things to do, so I won't bother you."

"I'm afraid you will have to stay in the prison for some time to come, waiting for me to make arrangements for you."

"However, the corresponding treatment will be better. You two might as well take this opportunity to explain the matter clearly to your junior brothers." After everything was settled, Gu Xun left the prison.

The two senior brothers and sisters were left staring at each other.

After Mei Sanniang regained her strength, she asked, "Senior brother, what did he take out just now?"

Dianqing did not tell her, but said perfunctorily, "Junior sister, this is not important anymore."

When Mei Sanniang heard this, she couldn't help but sneered, "Ha! Of course, to you, even the master's hatred is not important, what else could be important."

Dianqing responded in silence, not intending to argue with his junior sister who had a hot temper and was unwilling to change.

………………

A month later, midsummer was about to end, and in the Qin court, the debate about the attack on Chu finally came to a conclusion.

Li Xin, a young general from the Shao Zhuang faction, led an army of 200,000 troops to attack Chu.

At the same time, it was arranged that Meng Tian, ​​the right concubine commander who had completely pacified the three counties in the north, would lead the second army to attack from the side to assist Li Xin.

After the court meeting was decided, Wang Jian immediately resigned and returned to his hometown in Pinyang to take care of himself.

This was not an act of anger on his part, but a decision he had made from the beginning.

Wang Jian was not a reckless man who only knew how to fight. Could he not know that the King of Qin would not agree to his request for an army of 600,000 men?

It was because it was impossible to agree that I insisted on this request.

In his opinion, the Wang family has had too much limelight now and it's time to slow down.

It is enough to leave his son Wang Ben, who has been awarded the title of Tongwuhou, in the army. It is time for him, an old guy, to retire and rest.

Considering that he is nearly sixty years old, he is undoubtedly an old man in this era. It is normal for him to resign.

Ying Zheng was even more happy to see the success. After rewarding him with a bunch of real estate and acres, he happily agreed to Wang Jian's request.

At the same time, Gu Xun and Nianduan's drug experiments finally came to fruition.

In the Imperial Master's Mansion, in the medicine refining workshop.

Gu Xun and Nianduan were observing a small pill with sparkling golden light.

After spending a month and collecting a large amount of rare medicinal materials, they finally achieved their goal - to alleviate the violent medicinal power in the branches and leaves of the Fuso tree to a certain extent.

"It seems that your life-saving medicine was successful." Gu Xun said to Nianduan with a smile.

"Yes!" Nianduan looked at the pills and couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.

Even with Gu Xun's huge energy to maintain her vitality, Nian Duan only has more than half a month left. If she can't find a suitable drug, she will really be hopeless.

Although she couldn't say she was afraid of death, it was better not to die if she could.

There are still apprentices to support.

The life-and-death crisis was finally resolved. Nian Duan felt relaxed, but he couldn't help but sigh, "It's a pity that this medicine is still not very successful."

Although she had tried her best to slow down the violent medicinal power of the branches and leaves of the hibiscus sacred tree, Gu Xun had to use this medicine to buffer and channel it with her own energy, so that she could digest all the medicinal power and completely cure herself.

Without Gu Xun, he would not have died suddenly after taking the medicine, but most of the medicinal properties would have dissipated and the desired effect would not have been achieved.

Gu Xun took a broad view and replied casually, "As long as it works, I have not developed the medicine for Han Fei yet."
