Chapter 273: Zhao State Destroyed, Lord Yan ChunBestows Wine on Snow Maiden!
“Why didn’t the National Advisor kill him at the Feixue Pavilion before and chose to come out now?”
Two figures suddenly appeared on the street.
The Moon Goddess glanced at Tian Meng’s body on the ground, and her ethereal voice rang clearly in the quiet night.
In Cleardream’s eyes, there was a flicker of emotion.
Indeed, the National Advisor still cared about me.
Stepping over Tian Meng’s body, Li Mo thought that killing Tian Meng was just like raising his hand.
To him, the opponent didn’t even have the opportunity to fight back.
He just didn’t expect the Moon Goddess to think that he killed Tian Meng for her.
Quite self-indulgent.
“What is the purpose of my visit to the Kingdom of Yan this time?”
Fei Yan and the Moon Goddess followed behind him, suddenly hearing him ask like this.
The Moon Goddess responded without hesitation: “For the bronze box.”
Li Mo’s steps were not fast, walking leisurely, and he asked again: “Why did I agree to go to Feixue Pavilion with Lord Yan Chun?”
The Moon Goddess blurted out: “To delay him.”
This matter Li Mo had mentioned while they were in the carriage, she remembered very clearly.
“What will be the consequences if I kill Tian Meng in Feixue Pavilion?”
The Moon Goddess began to ponder after hearing this.
Will there be retaliation from the farming families?
No, he cannot be afraid of the farming families.
Fei Yan saw that she had not thought of it yet, so she spoke up: “It will cause chaos, and Lord Yan Chun will definitely intervene. By then, everyone will know that Lord Yan Chun is in Feixue Pavilion.”
“Killing someone publicly in the Yan capital as the husband of the National Advisor will certainly become common knowledge throughout the city.”
“And Lord Yan Chun accompanying you will also attract attention from others.”
“In this way, the imposter who infiltrated the palace as Lord Yan Chun to steal the bronze box will be exposed.”
Li Mo smiled contentedly.
My wife is indeed clever!
The Moon Goddess suddenly realized this simple truth that she hadn’t thought of before.
After a pause, she asked again, “The war between Qin and Zhao will cease, and the fall of Zhao is inevitable. If we want to obtain the bronze box of Yan Kingdom, why don’t we take advantage of the situation by invading Yan from Zhao?”
“If we conquer Yan, the box will naturally fall into our hands, so why use this method?”
Perhaps she had been in the Yin-Yang sect for too long, her way of doing things was simple and straightforward.
It perfectly matched her ethereal demeanor.
“Honey, please explain to her.”
Li Mo laughed and shook his head with an expression of speechlessness.
Fei Yan remained calm, patiently explaining: “Both Zhao and Yan rely on their northern borders, with the Xiongnu to the north of Zhao and the Donghu to the north of Yan.”
“After conquering Zhao, Qin will need to send troops to guard the northern borders to prevent the Xiongnu incursions.”
“If we were to invade Yan after this, we would have to deploy a portion of the troops to prevent the Donghu from the northern side of Yan.”
“After the fall of Zhao, the greatest obstacle to Qin’s unification would be Chu.”
“The people of Chu are fierce and numerous, and their national power is stronger than that of Zhao.”
“If we were to divert our forces to guard against the Xiongnu and Donghu, Qin would face manpower shortages and inadequate supplies when attacking Chu, and the outcome would be uncertain.”
After conquering Zhao, Qin would naturally need to send troops to guard the northern border of Zhao.
Likewise, the same would happen after conquering Yan.
Although Qin had a large army and capable generals, it could not afford to be so dispersed.
Chu was the toughest nut to crack, historically it took almost all of the nation’s resources for Qin to successfully defeat Chu.
The Moon Goddess understood: “The National Advisor wants Yan to act as the northern defense line.”
Li Mo nodded in agreement: “That’s about the gist of it.”
“Learn more about how your senior sister thinks about issues, don’t waste your intelligence on the wrong path.”
The Moon Goddess glanced at him, her expression changing slightly.
What does he mean by the wrong path?
Li Mo did not clarify, but the more vague he was, the more she felt unsure.
It would be best to obtain the bronze box as soon as possible while in Yan. How could they return empty-handed since they had come to Yan?
Shortly after the three of them returned to their residence, Black Jade Kirin arrived with the goods.
Inside the bronze box from Yan was a jade pendant, similar in quality to the few they had already obtained.
At this point, they had already obtained four out of the seven bronze boxes.
Li Mo already arranged for someone to go to Zhao.
Someone trustworthy who knew about this matter.
That person was Liwu.
When Zhao falls, the bronze box will also fall into his hands.
That makes five.
The remaining two are Chu and Qi.
Just as he was thinking about this, Li Mo suddenly froze.
He seemed to be motionless as if in a trance.
Fei Yan and the Moon Goddess looked at him simultaneously, puzzled.
After a long time, he finally smiled.
“Zhao has fallen.”
The Moon Goddess looked puzzled: “How did the National Advisor know?”
Except for when they were asleep last night, they had been together these days.
If someone had sent him a message, she should have known too.
And such a big thing will definitely be spread all over the world.
But so far, the Moon Goddess has not heard any news about this.
“If I say I saw it, would you believe me?”
Just a moment ago, Li Mo appeared again in the situation of the destruction of Han State.
His vision stretched uncontrollably, directly showing him the entire territory of Zhao State.
The Moon Goddess looked at Fei Yan, as if asking: Do you believe?
Fei Yan smiled gently: “I believe.”
The Moon God: “…I believe too.”
If even Senior Sister believes, how can I be left behind.
Li Mo remained silent, sitting there as if in a trance again.
The two women thought he was thinking about something, so they did not disturb him.
But Li Mo thought about it for a full two hours.
The two women sat next to him, waiting for him for two hours.
“The copper box from Zhao State is in hand.”
Finally, Li Mo seemed to come back to life, suddenly speaking.
The Moon Goddess couldn’t remain calm this time.
One is surprised how he knew about it.
Second, Li Mo’s speed of collecting the copper box truly shocked her.
“You…saw it again?”
The Moon Goddess hesitated to speak.
She still couldn’t understand what Li Mo meant by “saw.”
“Yes, curious how I saw it?”
The Moon Goddess nodded slightly, indeed curious.
Li Mo cryptically said: “With sincerity, you can see it.”
Just now, his situation was very peculiar.
His perception directly crossed Yan State and appeared in the territory of Zhao State.
Like a satellite in the sky.
Li Wu also lived up to expectations. Right after entering Zhao Royal Palace with his troops, he helped him find the copper box.
The Moon Goddess cast a wistful glance at him.
Meaningless.
Li Mo didn’t explain much to her either, standing up and saying, “It’s late, rest early.”
Then he turned his head to Fei Yan: “Madam, let’s go back to our room.”
Watching the two of them return to their room, the Moon Goddess sitting alone there suddenly felt empty.
After sitting quietly for a long time, she suddenly thought: Why not go listen again?
Just as she finished thinking, her fair and pretty face couldn’t help but blush.
The next day, Li Mo did not rush back to Qin State.
Instead, he took the two daughters of the Yin Yang School to stroll around the capital of Yan.
As night fell, Lord Yan Chun, this old lecher, came to find Li Mo again, inviting him to Feixue Pavilion.
This time he refused.
Snow Maiden only dances three times a month, and she had danced yesterday, so she wouldn’t dance today.
Rather than watching those mundane things, he’d rather accompany the Lord of the East.
Of course, the Moon Goddess would undoubtedly be there like a big light bulb!
In the Feixue Pavilion.
Lord Yan Chun sat in his own exclusive box as usual.
He knew Snow Maiden wouldn’t be performing today, but he was here for her nonetheless.
Not to force her to dance against her will.
Watching the dance no longer satisfied his appetite.
Today, Lord Yan Chun came to give wine!
