Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 443 Li Mu’s response

Although he was holding back a lot of bad things, from the outside, Yueshen had a solemn expression, appearing serious and sincere, without showing any flaws.

Gongzijia was also extremely hesitant in his heart, and could not continue to be enchanted by the moon god's elegant and refined appearance. He stood up and paced back and forth in the small secret room.

To be honest, although he was a little passive and the risk was not small, he was still very moved.

The situation he faces now is worse than Li Mu. Li Mu has a way to survive by cutting off his tail, but he is the biggest thorn in the eyes of Zhao Wangqian and Guo Kai. In this place under the feet of King Zhao, death is only a matter of time.

Although the Mohist family promised to keep him, Gongzi Jia didn't really believe in the Mohist family's strength in Zhao. Secondly... he was also worried that he would become a puppet of the Mohist family, a tool that fully served the Mohist family's demands.

After weighing the two aspects, he felt that the Yin Yang family's choice seemed better... provided that the other party did not lie to him.

With this thought in mind, Gongzijia turned his face and glanced at the beautiful Moon God again, and the balance in his heart gradually began to tilt - how could someone so beautiful be harmful!

"Could the Moon God Protector tell me what the copper box you want is?" Although he was already inclined to cooperate with the Yin Yang family, Master Jia did not rush to agree and asked tentatively about the transaction. , information about what the Yin Yang Family seeks.

"Ha!" Moon God closed his eyes slightly, let out a breath, and asked in an ethereal and ruthless tone, "Your Highness, Mr. Gongzijia, may be a little rude, but I still want to remind you that in your current situation, you know that these things are meaningless. .”

"This matter is naturally of great concern, but it has nothing to do with you. At least for you now, how to leave Handan and accumulate strength to deal with Zhao Wangqian is the most important. Your Highness does not need to worry about the rest."

"..." Gongzijia's face turned pale and pale, and he looked very ugly. Although he was telling the truth, it was a bit heartbreaking.

I now feel that good-looking people may not necessarily mean they are good people.

Although Yue Shen's words made him hesitate for a moment, the trader Jia did not intend to refuse, because what they said was right, the most important thing for him now was to survive, and he did not care about the rest and could not control it.

"My master has agreed to this transaction, but I want to see the sincerity of the Yin Yang family first."

Luna's eyes flickered slightly and asked, "What do you want, Master?"

"You have to make that old guy Guo Kai make some moves first to prove that you didn't deceive me."

"Heh... no problem." Moon God thought for a moment and then agreed.

It doesn't matter if he doesn't agree. Looking at Gongzi Jia's appearance, this is his most basic bottom line, otherwise this matter will be difficult to achieve.

But in this case, we have to ask Guo again... Fortunately, this matter should not be difficult to handle.

"Then... Your Highness, please confirm the target location as soon as possible."

"It's natural. I have an impression of that object. It is definitely in the palace's treasure house. Please rest assured, Moon God Protector."

"Very good." Moon God nodded slightly, then moved his hands slightly, his body swayed, and his whole person turned into bubbles and disappeared.

………………

In the General's Mansion, after Li Mu's morning court, he went back to his home and stayed behind closed doors, not showing up or seeing any guests.

Nowadays, his whole body can be affected by one move, and he cannot run around at all. Staying at home is the best choice. Anyway, it does not prevent him from knowing the news from the outside world and taking corresponding countermeasures.

"General, there are rumors circulating in the city now. They are all criticizing King Zhao and Guo Kai. The sky is full of rebellion and the people's resentment has suddenly arisen. It may not be good for you." Sima Shang is a master of military strategism, and the danger of such a fierce fire is very dangerous to him. The words couldn't be more clear, so I couldn't figure out the dangers involved, and I couldn't help but feel a little worried at this time. The key is that facing this situation, he has no solution. He only has elite soldiers and martial arts masters at his disposal. How can he quickly quell the rumors in the market?
  "It's natural. Guo Kai will definitely not let go of this good opportunity to add fuel to the fire." Li Mu stood in the hall, looking at Sima Shang calmly, rubbing the hilt of the Zhenyue Sword with his palm, and said in a deep voice replied.

"But... how should we break the current situation?" Although Sima Shang's tone was a little anxious, his expression was as calm as Li Mu's and did not show any panic.

They are all veterans who have experienced hundreds of battles, and the current battle is not enough to frighten them and make them feel at a loss.

However, being calm, Sima Shang couldn't think of a way to break the situation for the moment.

In war, one must either use strength to overwhelm others and use absolute military superiority to crush the enemy, or one must use ingenuity and ingenuity to weaken the enemy or use strength to defeat the enemy.

But now they don't have the brute force to break the situation. Guo Kai covers the sky with one hand, and no one can really compete with him. Naturally, there is nothing to borrow. As for weakening the enemy... The most important thing for Guo Kai is to have the support of Zhao Wangqian. Then the question arises. Now, how can we weaken the power of King Zhao in the capital of Zhao State?

Li Mu did not continue to answer Sima Shang's question. Instead, he sat down in his seat and looked at the other person leisurely and asked, "What do you think?"

"..." Sima Shang pondered for a moment, then replied with clasped fists, "The general feels that the only feasible way to break the situation now is to make Guo Kai lose the favor of King Zhao."

"Haha." Li Mu rubbed his beard and smiled slightly, "You are right. If you want to deal with Guo Kai in Handan City, the only way is to make him lose his honor."

Guo Kai has not fallen out of favor. Dealing with him is equivalent to dealing with King Zhao. There is no chance at all, but...

"It's a shame we can't do that."

"..." Sima Shang remained silent and did not try to refute.

Because it really can't be done.

"What are your plans, General?"

"Let's wait for now." Li Mu picked up the teacup on the side and took a big sip, regardless of the fact that the water inside was cold.

"General, are you planning to retreat?" Sima Shang couldn't help but ask after hearing this.

"Retreat? I have no choice but to retreat." Li Mu smiled and shook his head, "Even if I am willing to tolerate it, there are many people in this city who don't want to see me do this."

"They also won't pass up the opportunity to add fuel to the fire."

Sima Shang was silent in his heart. He also knew this, so he never tried to suggest that Li Mu Ren should calm down for a while.

The tree wants to be still but the wind doesn't stop, how can it stay still?
  "There's no need to be anxious." Li Mu raised his hand to signal Sima Shang not to worry, "I've already done what needs to be done."

"It's a pity... If possible, I really don't want to use this method to solve my troubles."

After speaking, Li Mu sighed slightly.

Upon hearing this and seeing Li Mu's attitude, Sima Shang seemed to have come to his senses and suddenly said, "I see, General, you have been prepared for a long time. No wonder this year is uncharacteristically..."
