[Wang Wu essentially tore up the peace treaty between Wu and Han, turned around and surrendered to Zheng, and even wanted to help Zheng fight Wu. What do you think Hou Mengmeng and her adopted son, who were hostages in Wu, will do now? What will they want to do now that they're back? (*^▽^*)]
Wow, there are traps everywhere! Hou Mengmeng's experience is truly bizarre.
[Xie Yanhua originally intended to send Hou Mengmeng and her adopted son away directly. If it weren't for Cao Wei's persuasion to keep Han as a buffer between Zheng and Wu, they would probably have been eliminated and become part of our live-streaming army.]
When Ji Rong left, I felt like the look in his eyes when he looked at Xie Yanhua was saying, "I'll remember you, haha~"
[Haha, Xie Yanhua seems quite pleased. But Ji Rong is truly valuable! The King of Zheng is quite generous! He's given away the imperial seal and money, and even forgot the troops and provisions he borrowed before.]
[He's definitely valuable. The haggling between the Zheng delegation and the Wu delegation was quite entertaining; the back-and-forth negotiations were intense. I guess Ji Rong is genuinely useful, since he helped Zheng annex the neighboring Yue state. The ruler of Zheng will definitely want to ransom Ji Rong. ┓( ′?` )┏.]
Why does it seem like Cao Wei has been relatively quiet lately?
[Cao Wei seems to have retired to a retirement home, living like an elderly person, basking in the sun every day, eating on time, and going for walks.]
Don't forget to tip! Haha!
[Cao Wei is so generous! Was her family very wealthy before she went in? How could she be so willing to give so much? She gives extra money to street vendors, extra money to beggars, and even has her servants tip farmers when she asks for water in a village. Her behavior is so outrageous, I almost want to go in and fawn over her.]
【It's not real money ┓( ′?` )┏。】
[If it's not real money, why haven't the other players contributed?]
No wonder so many advisors and swordsmen are eager to follow Cao Wei even if it means paying them nothing. Who wouldn't be envious? She's easy to get along with and generous.
Forget about you, if it were me, I'd work for her forever!
Xie Yanhua has been in high spirits lately, enjoying a period of good fortune. He is now a well-known figure, having defeated and captured Ji Rong, a famous strategist. Moreover, he has gradually risen to a higher position in the Zhao army camp, gaining access to more intelligence.
He always walks with a brisk pace during meetings.
The King of Wu no longer looked down on him, and the eunuchs began to pay attention to his tastes.
Xie Yanhua glanced at Cao Wei and said to the eunuch beside her, "Make it light."
However, Cao Wei, whom he was paying attention to, was unaware that someone was paying so much attention to her. Cao Wei was thinking about what to eat today.
Some time ago, after Ji Rong returned home, he actually gave her a gift separately, which she felt somewhat unworthy of. Besides the treasure, she discovered that Ji Rong also owned a chain of restaurants.
Ji Rong gave her a VVVIP card, the kind that doesn't cost any money, which surprised Cao Wei.
She had heard that some people had entered the restaurant with recipes, just like the wealthy ones, but she didn't think this person was Ji Rong, right?! It must be a collaboration, since you can't open a restaurant without connections in this world.
This explains why Ji Rong, despite being a strategist, was not short of money. After all, compared to the strategists from Zhao and Wu that she had met recently, his clothing and accessories made him appear quite wealthy.
She actually admired him quite a bit, and she also wanted to get along peacefully with Xie Yanhua, but he clearly saw her as a thorn in his side and was determined to compete with her, just like two tigers cannot share one mountain.
Cao Wei attended the meeting listlessly, lost in thought. As she left, she saw Xie Yanhua stay behind again to discuss matters privately with the King of Wu. She yawned, glanced at him, and then departed.
After all, if someone isn't proactive about leaving get off work, there's something wrong with their mindset.
Xie Yanhua watched Cao Wei's retreating figure with a smile, feeling more pleased than ever before. "Look who's been left behind!" he thought. "It's him! He's the king's most trusted and favored minister!!"
Fortune's wheel turns, never underestimate a young man's potential. He'll soon have even greater political achievements, and the gap between him and Cao Wei will only widen. So what if he's a nobleman?!
[Tsk tsk tsk, it seems Xie Yanhua is getting more and more attention. Wasn't Cao Wei quite impressive before? Hurry up and compete! (Watching the drama unfold emoji.JPG)]
[Haha, I never expected Ji Rong to be one of the owners of that chain restaurant, Shufangzhai.]
[You guys didn't know this?! I thought everyone else was watching Ji Rong's livestream every day like us.]
[Sister Meimei is not only beautiful, but her cooking is also delicious. Ji Rong decided to sponsor her to open a shop immediately after eating there.]
Who is Sister Meimei?!
[Feng Mei memorized a lot of recipes before going in, but she didn't expect that she couldn't open a shop. The small vendors were also extorted for protection money. Then she happened to meet Ji Rong, and the two hit it off. Ji Rong found noble families to back Feng Mei up, and Feng Mei provided the manpower and recipes. Then the business grew bigger and bigger, and later she opened shops in the capitals of various countries.]
Now that you mention it, I think I remember. There was a contestant who set up a stall before; I'd almost forgotten about it.
Yes, that's her. I watched it for a while too. It was quite interesting at first, but then it got so tiring. She was busy from morning till night every day, and watching it felt like I was almost as exhausted as she is now. It was so tough.
[Chen Ai's treason has been discovered!!!]
【Huh?! Chen Ai?! Colluding with the enemy?! How could that be?!】
【Yeah (*￣rǒ￣), she's already a Grand General, why would she need to collude with the enemy? She could just kill the King of Zhao and become emperor herself.】
The evidence has been unearthed; it's unclear whether it's fabricated.
Xu Duo felt very uncomfortable. He hadn't expected that Xie Yanhua, that venomous snake, hadn't gone through him. The realization that Xie Yanhua had other spies and informants in Zhao sent a chill down Xu Duo's spine.
Perhaps he was also being monitored by Xie Yanhua, and his hesitation had already made him a pawn to be discarded by Xie Yanhua.
"General Chen, you should leave quickly. The evidence has already been delivered to King Zhao's table."
Many of them had been serving as doctors in the barracks during this time, and from their initial reluctance, they had now come to realize that Chen Ai was truly an admirable person. How could he possibly bring himself to harm someone who ate with all the soldiers, didn't engage in any other improper practices, didn't form cliques or seek personal gain, and treated everyone around her equally!
He had been almost completely immersed in the feeling lately. People he had bandaged up a few days ago would be gone in battle a couple of days later. There were always new people in the barracks, one new face after another.
The word "war" is no longer just a simple word in textbooks; it's a real war where you never know if the person you meet will be the last you see, or the last time they will see you.
