Chapter 96: Secret Fight
In the night, a figure slowly appeared, carrying a long sword, his face hidden in the scattered hair and unable to see his appearance, and a pair of eyes shining in the night.
scold
A black shadow passed quickly, extremely fast, but unfortunately it still couldn't be faster than the sword light, the sword was originally on its back, and it was already in the hand at this time, the tip of the sword was against an object, and it was faintly visible in the moonlight, but it was just a fat rat, coming out to forage at night, the cold tip of the sword was against the body, and the mouth squeaked.
"Die."
The tip of the sword swept away, the fat rat's body was in a different place, the long sword was withdrawn, I didn't want to be so cruel that I didn't even want to let go of a street rat, Xianyang City at night seemed particularly deserted, Xianyang was different from other capitals, in order to avoid the prevailing wind of the world, Qin's law stipulates that you must return home after the night ban, otherwise you will be disposed of according to law.
As soon as this law came out, those men who liked to steal joy around on weekdays had to stay at home obediently, so it was beautiful for those women who kept empty houses alone.
The man looked left and right, don't say it's a person, even if there is not even a mouse, put his hand to his mouth and make a few birdsongs, the birdsong is crisp, and the night is far away, and it doesn't take long, and a sound of footsteps sounds, and the man reads in his mouth, fifteen.
Whoosh, more than a dozen black shadows quickly appeared, exactly fifteen people, all dressed in black, "Why are there three missing?" ”
One person said: "Qiu Yidao received the task and took the two of them to carry it out." ”
"Last mission failed, how about remediation?"
"Shun lì kill."
"Well done, the guidelines of the killer organization do not allow for any failure."
"Yes!"
Finally figured out that these black-clothed swordsmen in front of him were the terrifying killer organization in Qi back then, Zhao Mu contacted the killer organization in order to get rid of Zhao Kuo that day, and he didn't want the leader of the killer organization to be Zhao Kuo's rival Lian Jin, and after a fight, the elite of the killer organization was killed and wounded, and Zhao Kuo was lucky not to die in that battle.
When he came to the Qin State, Chang Yu once again selected people to train them, and the name of the killer organization reappeared, and Lü Buwei also paid attention to it, only because of the strict organization and the usual scattering of personnel, they would only appear after receiving the task, wearing black scarves with each other, even if the companions did not know each other's identities.
"Door Master."
"Immediately inform the island owner that there is a change in the Qin country."
"Everyone else is ready to carry out the mission."
"Don't worry, the doorman."
The black shadow flickered, and there was only one person left in the huge clearing, and his left arm changed with the wind in the moonlight, taking advantage of the changes in the Qin State, not only for that woman, but also for himself.
The dark tide in Xianyang City is turbulent, and a few people who can influence the current situation do not know at this time, Lu Buwei reviews government affairs, and every day from early morning to noon, he shakes his neck a little stiffly, and his hands are slowly closed.
There is a cloth scroll under the bamboo slip, and two names are written on the cloth scroll, Wang Zizheng, Wang Zijiao, and Lu Buwei are still worried about the establishment of the prince.
If he is a politician, this son is scheming, he will inevitably be restrained by his full wings, such a risk Lu Buwei does not want to take it, compared to Cheng Jiao's personality is more gentle, and he also knows how to be polite, but it is a pity that Cheng Jiao has gathered too many people around him, deep and old and spicy Sima Terrier, as well as those clan forces, he can use these forces to take away his power as a king, if he is elected Wang Zizheng, he will not face such a dilemma, Wang Zizheng is like a stranger back then, only relying on himself.
Lü Buwei frowned, he couldn't make a decision for a while, he simply listened to what others said, Lü Buwei wore a casual dress and entered the market, the market was lively, Xianyang City gathered major business groups, among which the larger ones even controlled a few streets, which Lü Buwei didn't care, there were buying and selling, and the merchants would not work hard if they didn't have benefits.
Stepping into a wine shop, this kind of place likes to talk the most, find a secluded place to sit down, the wine shop is full of people, most of them are brightly dressed, and they can linger in this kind of place naturally have some identity.
One person said: "Who in Xianyang City doesn't know the second son, and he is smart." ”
"This is not necessarily, what do the old Qin people rely on to fight the world, it is a fist, I have heard that Gongzizheng is physically strong, and he dares to fight with fierce beasts at a young age, this is the kind of our old Qin people."
"What's the use of brute force?"
"Playing clever will only lead to misdirection of the country."
The two of them blew their beards and stared, if it weren't for the fact that Qin Law had made a big move, the people around them hurriedly persuaded each other, "Don't say a few words, which is better is not the king alone, what do you care!" ”
A smile appeared on Lu Buwei's face, a seemingly casual word, Lu Buwei stood up, threw the silver money on the table and left quickly, and shook his head alone, "It's strange, it's really strange, that person is a little similar to Lu Xiangye." ”
"You kid must have drunk too much, this kind of place is where Xiangye can come."
"That's what I said, drink it, do it."
"If you don't get drunk, you won't return."
Lü Buwei left the wine shop and went straight to the palace, always to listen to the king's thoughts, all the way to the palace gate to stop, but saw that there was a bronze tripod in the center of the palace, and the white air rose above, and a high platform was erected next to the big tripod, and there was a person sitting on the high platform, with a crane hair and a childish face, and a boy sitting cross-legged at each of the four corners of the high platform.
"What is this going on?"
The guards hurriedly said: "The king invited the Lingyin Master of Lingtai Mountain to open the altar here, saying that he would refine the elixir to exorcise evil spirits and cure diseases for the king. ”
"Nonsense!"
Qinduo mountains and rivers, also become a place for warlocks to gather, according to the cultivation method of different mountain gates, each called the authentic, this Lingtai Mountain Lingyin Master has also heard, it is said that some skills, can ten days and ten nights without sleep, has passed the year of the mandate of heaven is still strong.
"My lord, these words must not be heard by the king, so as not to displease the king."
"Clearly, the prime minister is going to see the king now."
Lü Buwei walked forward quickly, the old man on the high platform had words in his mouth, and the boy who was guarding under the copper tripod threw firewood into it from time to time, and entered the backyard of the palace through the main hall.
Yiren leaned there, his spirit was obviously much better, and Lu Buwei stepped in, "It's Xiangguo here." ”
"I'm thinking about the king's body, and I'll come over as soon as I finish dealing with political affairs."
Yiren smiled, "After taking the pill, most of the feeling of depression has subsided, and the whole person is much more energetic." ”
"Pills?"
"A gift from the Venerable Master."
After speaking, he carefully took out the red pill, the red pill, the warlock alchemy is not unusual, it is doped with dansha, so the pill is red, Lu Buwei was doing business everywhere in his early years, and he also knew something about the pill, took the medicine bottle and looked at it carefully, the color was bright, the refining process was exquisite, and the alchemy was extremely important.
"It is the blessing of Great Qin that the king's health has improved."
"Xiangguo came here today, but I have something to discuss with the widow?"
"This!" Lu Buwei hesitated, the matter of the king's health getting better and establishing a prince can be mentioned later, and the stranger looked at it, "If you have something to say, you can say it directly." ”
"It's to discuss the matter of establishing a prince with the king!"
"Lichu, the widow is in his prime, and the second son is young, so this matter is not in a hurry."
Lu Buwei said: "Qin law has a saying, the prince is crowned as a prince, the king has been on the throne for three years, and he has a son to establish a prince, and he was only eight years old when he was a prince when he was filial piety. ”
Yiren nodded again and again after hearing this, Lü Buwei's words are reasonable and well-founded, since his health is ill, the state affairs are completely handed over to Lü Buwei and his courtiers, and it is not impossible to canonize the crown prince, "After all, the second son is young, Qin Fa is clear, but all the descendants of the Ying family, the sage can succeed him, and the Yiren was not the first king, and the final succession is this reason." ”
"The king means to choose the best among the men of the clan?"
Yiren nodded, "Widows can't break the rules for their own selfishness, the ancestors set such rules back then, they wanted to be virtuous and not relatives." ”
"The king's judgment is admirable."
"Annoying Xiangguo issued the king's order, but all the people of the Ying clan can be shortlisted, and who can win in the end depends on personal ability."
Lu Buwei took the order to come out, such a decision was unexpected, just ask who doesn't want his son to succeed to the throne as the king, it must be the year when the aliens were exiled to other countries, if it is really the young descendants of the Ying family, there should be many people who meet the conditions in Xianyang City, not to mention ten people.
The king's order was issued quickly, and there was a lot of discussion on the streets of the market, the king wanted to set up a prince, and he stood on the basis of the best, and everyone gave a thumbs up, only in this way can there be hope for the Qin State.
The descendants of the Ying family are gearing up, so they are in a hurry, Zhao Ji, originally thought that getting rid of Cheng Jiao would definitely be successful, but now it is different, so many competitors suddenly appeared, and they had to be tested, and in the end they could only rely on Zheng'er himself, so he immediately ordered someone to find Chang Yu.
"There has been a change, the plan has been cancelled."
"For the sake of the queen, Chang Yu did not hesitate to kill all the clan men."
"Forget it, that's too obvious."
"If you don't do it, the prince will be very disadvantageous to Wang Zizheng, especially Cheng Jiao."
Zhao Ji bit her lip, "For the sake of Zheng'er, Zhao Ji is willing to do anything, you go back first, don't appear here during this time, so as not to be caught." ”
"No, I'll die like that."
Zhao Ji sneered, "If that's the case, it's better to die." After speaking, he turned around and left, leaving only a stunned face, with a wry smile on his expressionless face, and the woman's desperation has long been accustomed to it.
Zhao Ji dressed up carefully, and took advantage of the night to go straight to Xiangguo's mansion, Lu Buwei was a little tired after a busy day, and he rested early after eating a little soup and rice, and Qin Guo's dinner was mostly soup and rice, which was beneficial to the body, and secondly, to save food, a habit developed over the years, even if the nobles also obeyed it.
There was a knock on the door, "What's the matter?" ”
"My lord, the king has come back."
Lu Buwei sat up, what are you doing so late, if you are seen, it will inevitably be gossiped, and now you have to be taboo in a high position, do not dare to delay, put on your coat and go out, the door opened and was stunned, Zhao Ji was at the door, and there were no guards around her.
"Queen."
"Whether it is convenient for Lord Xiangguo, Zhao Ji has important matters to discuss."
"Of course, no one is allowed to enter when they go out and guard it."
The cronies walked out quickly, Zhao Ji walked up, dressed very decently, with a hint of charm in the dignity, and walked straight into the bed and sat down slowly.
"Queen, what does that mean?"
Zhao Ji sneered, "Lord Xiangguo is worried about what Zhao Ji will forcibly do to adults?" ”
"No, it's just that after all, the identity is different, and if it is seen, it will be bad for the queen."
"Lord Xiangguo is afraid, if this is the case, Zhao Ji's trip must be wrong, a man without guts can't succeed at all, and he is even less worthy of being his father." Zhao Ji's words revealed coldness, a pair of eyes stared at the man in front of him, Zhao Ji knew best, if you want to change the unfavorable situation in front of you, it is far from possible to rely on Chang Yu, what Chang Yu gives herself can only be ecstasy at night, and now to help Zheng'er get what he deserves can only rely on Lu Buwei.
"What did you say?" Lu Buwei was stunned, especially the latter sentence.
"Come here."
Zhao Ji's fingers hooked slightly, Lu Buwei couldn't help but walk forward, Zhao Ji took advantage of the situation, "Did you forget that you were warm and lingering in bed with Zhao Ji that day?" ”
"The queen is self-respecting, if it's just for this matter, Lu Buwei can only send off guests."
Zhao Ji sneered, "The adult is no longer the fearless Uncle Lu back then, but the high-ranking Lu Xiangye, Zhao Ji just wants to know how Xiangye treats his son?" ”
"My son!"
Lu Buwei was completely stunned, he has always regretted that he has no children under his knees, women have made a lot of them over the years, but unfortunately none of them are angry, and now from Zhao Ji's mouth, his body suddenly pressed, "What the hell is going on?" ”
Zhao Ji's eyes slowly closed, "Ji just wants to be favored by Xiangye." ”
"Say it quickly." Almost turned into an angry roar, Lu Buwei had already lost his patience, and he wanted to open Zhao Ji's mouth to know all the facts.
"Zheng'er is your flesh and blood."
