Chapter 104: Nongyu's Night Escape
This world is big, so big that it covers thousands of miles and has tens of millions of living beings, but this world is small, so small that it is just the intrigue of seven people. Therefore, although the name Yang Chong is unfamiliar to the vast majority of people in the world, for Yan Dan, a small group of people who are qualified to stand at the top of the world, the name Yang Chong is not unfamiliar.

Although the State of Yan did not invest too much energy in the Central Plains where the States of Han and Wei were located, the situation was different for the Mohist School. As a prominent school among the Hundred Schools of Thought, the Mohist School had influence throughout every corner of the Seven States. Prince Dan of Yan did not know what happened to Yang Chong, but Yan Dan, the descendant of a Mohist master, knew about it.

As a descendant of the Lu family of Qi State, he was the only one who could survive the stranglehold of the Luowang and the Nong family. These three points alone were enough to make Yan Dan take Yang Chong seriously, even though Yang Chong was now only the commander of the Sima Gate of the King of Han's Palace.

In Yan Dan's opinion, whether it is Yang Chong's identity or his martial arts that can break through the stranglehold between Luo Wang and the farmers, Yang Chong has great value to him.

Prince Dan of Qi was very interested, as were the six tribes of Emperor Yan and the descendants of the Mohist masters.

Therefore, when Situ Wanli talked about Yang Chong, Yan Dan was moved. This person who was about to go to Qin as a hostage was moved.

However, Yan Dan's excitement was not the kind that Situ Wanli expected.

Situ Wanli wanted to invite these people in front of him to attack Yang Chong together without going through the Nong family, and then get what the Nong family wanted, but he underestimated Yan Dan, and Situ Wanli was not qualified to ask him to take action.

But Yan Dan also believed that he had to meet Yang Chong. At that time, whether he used Yang Chong to exchange for the friendship of the farmers, or to win over or even subdue Yang Chong, it would be a gain for him.

In particular, Yan Dan thought of a way to have the best of both worlds, which was to let Situ Wanli seize the inheritance of the six tribes of Emperor Yan from Yang Chong. In this way, the Nong family would have to owe him a favor, and he could use Situ Wanli to force Yang Chong into a desperate situation, and then take action to subdue Yang Chong.

So when faced with Situ Wanli's invitation, Yan Dan agreed.

"Are you going to kill people for treasure?" Jing Ke spoke while Yan Dan was considering the pros and cons.

Although Jing Ke did things according to his own preferences, he never did evil. Situ Wanli invited these people to obtain the inheritance of the six tribes of Emperor Yan. In Jing Ke's opinion, this was just killing people and stealing treasures. He had no interest in such things. If he had not had some friendship with Situ Wanli, he would have left at this time.

"Not really, not really. The most important purpose of me doing this is to avenge my brothers Tian Meng and Tian Hu. Yang Chong is an extremely vicious person. He not only killed my disciples from the farming family, but also abducted our female disciples for sexual pleasure. Even if I don't have the inheritance of the six tribes of Emperor Yan, I will take action to avenge and rescue such a heinous person." Situ Wanli said.

"I can help Brother Situ rescue the female disciple from your farming family, but I will not get involved in anything else." Jing Ke thought for a moment and replied.

"Brother Jing, you are so righteous." Situ Wanli bowed and said, feeling a little annoyed at Jing Ke's indifference, but he could not force Jing Ke to do anything. After all, Jing Ke was a stronger swordsman than Tian Meng and the others, and the success or failure of his plan depended on him.

"Revenge, rescuing your female peasant disciples, I have no interest at all. However, I am very interested in the inheritance of the six tribes of Emperor Yan." Touman touched his curly beard. As the young master of the wolf tribe, he was very interested in the top martial arts of the seven countries. However, the most advanced martial arts were the secrets of hundreds of schools. A foreigner like him had no chance to come into contact with them. But now the opportunity was in front of him.

"Then I'll have to trouble you all." Seeing that Jing Ke and Touman had given in, Situ Wanli breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that his plan had succeeded.

While Situ Wanli was plotting against Yang Chong, Zi Nu, who had come out of Qianlong Hall, had already returned to Zilan Xuan.

"Is it settled?" Wei Zhuang asked.

"The things have been delivered to Han Fei. Do you think highly of this Ninth Young Master?" Zi Nu stretched her waist which was a little stiff from sitting in the carriage for a long time, showing her perfect figure.

But Wei Zhuang didn't even look at her. She was just a woman and couldn't affect him.

"Han Fei, who was accepted as a disciple by the Confucian Xunzi, is not an ordinary person. However, this only makes him worthy of my attention. Whether he is qualified to be my collaborator depends on how he performs in the case of the ghost soldiers' robbery." Wei Zhuang said.

In Korea, Wei Zhuang has his own ambitions, just like his senior brother Gai Nie chose Qin. However, in Korea, there are not many people who can become Wei Zhuang's partner. The crown prince is a piece of mud and cannot be helped. Ji Wuye is his target. The fourth prince Han Yu is qualified as a prince, but his ability is limited and he cannot support Wei Zhuang's ideals. Therefore, Han Fei, who has studied abroad for ten years, becomes Wei Zhuang's candidate for cooperation.

However, before that, Han Fei still needs to go through his test, and the case of the ghost soldier robbery is the test question that Wei Zhuang prepared for Han Fei.

"I hope he won't let you down." Zi Nu said. At this time, the door of the room was pushed open, and it was Nanyue who came in carrying a wooden basin for washing.

"Nongyu, you haven't rested yet?" Zi Nu looked at Nongyu with a little surprise. Nongyu was not Zi Lanxuan's maid, so she didn't have to do these things.

"Not yet, sister Zi Nu has worked hard on this journey." Nong Yu walked to the dressing table. Because of Yang Chong's appearance, she now rests later and later, because she has something on her mind. "You are becoming more and more sensible." Zi Nu looked at Nong Yu. Time flies. The little girl back then has really grown up now and has her own worries that cannot be known by others.

"Sister, wasn't Nanyue sensible before?" Nanyue handed the face towel soaked in hot water to Zinu and said coquettishly
"That's not what I meant." Zi Nu said as she put the towel on her face. The heat made the pores on her face relax, and she couldn't help but let out a comfortable sound.

"Behind the Qianlong Hall is a farming family. Situ Wanli kept Yan Dan, Jing Ke and others here, and it seems that he has other plans." After a while, Zi Nu took off the face scarf.

"Situ Wanli has been in Xinzheng for such a long time, always thinking about making money. Now he has a plan. What is it? Can you imagine it?" Wei Zhuang asked back.

"Yang Chong. Situ Wanli doesn't dare to attack Yang Chong himself, so he wants to borrow his strength." Zi Nu said with a smile, and did not forget to look at Nong Yu.

At first, under Yang Chong's tricks, Zi Nu's emotions dominated her rationality. Now, she has let her rationality overcome her emotions again, and she can face Yang Chong calmly.

"Yan Dan and Jing Ke are both good opponents. If Situ Wanli can invite them to attack Yang Chong, Yang Chong will be caught off guard and it's hard to say what will happen." Wei Zhuang said.

Yan Dan and Jing Ke were both rare masters of the young generation in the world at that time. Although Wei Zhuang had not yet fully tested Yang Chong's strength, he also believed that Yang Chong's strength should be on par with his. It would not be easy for Yang Chong to defeat Yan Dan, Jing Ke and more people at the same time, especially since Situ Wanli invited more than just Yan Dan and Jing Ke.

"So Yang Chong is in danger?" Zi Nu asked.

"I'm afraid so, unless he uses the power of the night." Wei Zhuang analyzed.

"So what are we going to do?"

"What does Yang Chong's life and death have to do with us? He is from Ye Mu." Wei Zhuang was indifferent. Yang Chong was just an interesting opponent to him. As for others, they were nothing. What's more, Yang Chong had now surrendered to Ji Wuye. No matter what Yang Chong's purpose was, the two would eventually have to fight each other. So he didn't care at all whether Yang Chong was in danger or not.

"You men, Nong Yu, tell me, should we remind Yang Chong?" Zi Nu was already accustomed to Wei Zhuang's cold-bloodedness, but she was a woman, and women were different, so she asked Nong Yu.

"Brother Yang..." When Nanyue saw Sister Zinu throwing the question to her, she hesitated for a moment. Deep down in her heart, she certainly wanted to remind Yang Chong. After spending these days together, she had already regarded Yang Chong as a good friend. Because of music, she even regarded Yang Chong as a soulmate. But as Wei Zhuang said, Yang Chong was a man of the night, a person who stood on the opposite side of them.

If the news that the Nong family was plotting against Yang Chong was obtained by her, she would tell Yang Chong without hesitation, but this news was obtained from her sister Zi Nu. Could she tell Yang Chong without Zi Nu's consent? Nanyu felt that she could not, because that would mean betrayal.

For Nanyue, although Yang Chong is special, Zi Nu is her relative.

"The call of 'Brother Yang' has already let me know your answer. Nongyu, go and tell Yang Chong the news." Zi Nu said.

"Thank you, sister." A smile appeared on Nanyue's face when she heard it.

"Nongyu, you can't interfere in other people's business. Yang Chong owes us a favor in this matter. He should thank us when the time comes." Zi Nu said with a smile. As for why she helped Yang Chong, in addition to Nongyu's reasons, there were also reasons from Yang Chong. Some things have already happened, so how could they not leave traces?

The geese leave their voices when they pass by, and the snow leaves its traces when it passes by. It is just like that.

"I'll go tell Brother Yang first. As for how to make her thank us in the future, that depends on Sister Zinu." Nanyue said and ran away. Although she was worried about Yang Chong's safety, she also had some intention of fleeing.

"Women are unreliable and too easily moved." Wei Zhuang said as he watched Nanyue's disappearing back.

"We women don't have the ambitions that you men have." Zi Nu rolled her eyes at Wei Zhuang. Big men see the world, but women like them see life.

After returning to her room, Nongyu quickly changed into casual clothes and hurriedly disappeared into Xinzheng under the night.
