Be an emperor from drawing cards

Chapter 8 Actors don’t differentiate between you and me
Qingzhou City is the city of Taihe Prefecture. Wu Yizhi is sitting on a thousand-mile horse, looking at the pedestrians coming and going on the street, with a look of contemplation in his eyes.

Among the passers-by, many wore white scarves, and some wealthy families hung spiritual banners in front of their doors.

When he asked a passerby, Wu Yizhi learned that the reason why the people in the city were acting like this was, firstly, to mourn Zhao Qin, the Marquis of Anguo who was assassinated, and secondly, to keep vigil for His Majesty.

"I didn't expect that the Marquis of Anguo's Mansion would be so popular in Qingzhou City. Although the old Marquis Zhao Qin died, the young Marquis Zhao Yu is still alive. However, this is not a bad thing for Minggong. It's just that from Once in Qingzhou City, we can know that the hearts of the people in the world are still in the Zhao family, and it may not be too late for Ming Gong to change the day..."

Thinking like this, Wu Yizhi arrived at the gate of Anguohou's Mansion according to what passers-by said.

Wu Yizhi got off his horse, raised his hands towards the concierge, and said:

"This little brother, let's talk about the envoy of the General Fuguo, the military commander offering wine, and the visit of Wu Yizhi, Marquis of Pucheng Pavilion."

The concierge was only fifteen or sixteen years old. Hearing this, he blinked his eyes and said with a confused look on his face:
"This gentleman, I really can't remember so much."

Wu Yizhi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He waved his sleeves and said helplessly: "Go and tell Marquis An Guo that Wu Yizhi, the envoy of General Fu Guo, is here to visit."

On this side, Zhao Yu was chatting with Wang Pu in the study, when he heard a report from the porter that there was an envoy from the Fuguo General who claimed to be Wu Yizhi visiting.

"Wu Yizhi, a native of Ningjiang Prefecture, a counselor under Huang Jingming's tent, good at intrigue, loves to joke, and often stays in brothels at night."

Wang Pu said softly.

An Guohou's Mansion also has a group of spies in secret, responsible for investigating the news from the outside world.After Wang Pu arrived, Zhao Yu handed all these people into his hands.

Wang Pu asked them to focus on searching for information on the ministers in the court, as well as the generals and advisers under General Huang.

The news about Wu Yizhi is one of the achievements of these people today.

"Staying in a brothel overnight... Tsk, can we only say that talented people often have eccentricities?"

Zhao Yu looked up at Wang Pu.

"Mr. Wang, could Wu Yizhi's coming here at this time be related to the 'Tianshi' that Mr. Wang mentioned in the past?"

"Huang Jingming was able to order the first emperor to let him assist the government. It can be seen that he is not a man without talent and wisdom, otherwise he would not be able to reach the position he is today. Wu Yizhi is not mediocre to be favored by him. The general sent him here at this time. Most of them are related to the throne. I just don’t know if the general sent someone to contact other clans.”

Wang Pu murmured.

"No matter what, it's enough for the soldiers to block the water and cover it with the earth. Master Hou will first check the other party's tone for a while, and don't easily agree to the other party's conditions. If it doesn't work, just push it here."

Not long ago, Zhao Yu formally inherited the title and became the new Marquis of Anguo after the imperial decree was issued.Therefore, Wang Pu, Zhang Xiu and others also changed their titles logically.

After the two discussed it, they asked the servants to open the middle door to welcome the distinguished guests.

Zhao Yu led Wang Pu to welcome Wu Yizhi into the middle hall. After the ceremony, both parties sat down as guests and hosts.

The maid served the tea, Zhao Yu smiled and cupped his hands and said:
"Xiaohou has met the Marquis of Pucheng Ting. The Marquis of Pucheng Ting is here today, which really makes the whole house of the Marquis resplendent."

"What the hell, the little Marquis is joking. I haven't congratulated the little Marquis on getting what he wanted."

Wu Yizhi laughed, raised the tea cup in his hand to Zhao Yu, then raised his head and drank it all in one gulp, put down the tea cup, and touched the maid standing beside him, causing everyone in the hall to stare angrily.

Zhao Yu put down the wine glass in his hand heavily, and said coldly:

"Mr. Wu, please be careful what you say. In addition, our Anguohou Mansion is not a brothel in Chuguan. Please respect yourself, Mr. Wu!"

Wu Yizhi squinted at Zhao Yu when he heard the words.

"Does the Marquis not know that I am the General's envoy? Is it possible that the Marquis is not afraid of the General's blame?"

"Afraid, the general has a high position and power, why am I not afraid? But if I am afraid of returning, it does not mean that I have to swallow everything." Zhao Yu lowered his voice and said, "Mr. Wu, believe it or not, in the great general Before the general takes my head, sir, can't you leave my Anguohou residence?"

Wu Yizhi stared at Zhao Yu for a long time before he laughed and said:
"Marquis An Guo is indeed a heroic young man. No wonder he escaped from the hands of those assassins. The old Marquis knew better, so he should rest in peace. I apologize to the Marquis for what I just said, and I hope the Marquis will not take it to heart. "

After finishing speaking, he bowed deeply to Zhao Yu.

Wu Yizhi was quite depressed, he really didn't expect that, facing his temptation, the other party would directly lift the table, and even threatened him in turn.

Why are today's young people so angry?
He, Wu Yizhi, is timid, but he doesn't dare to bet that the other party will really cut him with a knife, so let's admit it decisively...

However, he had finally figured out some of the Marquis's temperament.

"I accept Mr. Wu's apology." Zhao Yu said calmly, "Mr. Wu, please get straight to the point. I don't like to beat around the bush, so Mr. Wu just said it directly. If you are a distinguished guest, then naturally We will entertain you with fine wines and delicacies; if you are a bad visitor, don’t blame me for taking out the swords, bows and arrows that were thrown in the warehouse."

"Ahem," Wu Yizhi coughed lightly and took the opportunity to relieve his emotions before saying, "The Marquis also knows that His Majesty died suddenly in the palace a few days ago and left no heir, so rumors spread. The government and the public are in turmoil. Mr. Marquis, you are young and decisive, with a heroic spirit. The general has a plan for the great Chu country, and wants to support Mr. Hou as emperor. I wonder what Mr. Hou wants?"

really!

Zhao Yu looked at Wang Pu, who was attacking, calmly.

"Ugh..."

In the next second, Zhao Yu suddenly changed his face, covered his face with his sleeves, and burst into tears.

"Master Hou, are you?"

The scene in front of him made Wu Yizhi instantly dumbfounded.

What kind of medicine is sold in the gourd of An Guohou?

Zhao Yu waved his hands, sobbing and said:
"When I think of His Majesty's kindness, I can't help but feel sad in my heart. Your Majesty passed away unfortunately that day, and I wish I could take his place in his place! Mr. Wu, I am in mourning so much that I can't discuss matters. I'm really sorry. Mr. Wang, and Mr. Wu I leave all the matters to be discussed to you, sir."

Before he finished speaking, Zhao Yu, who covered his face with long sleeves, turned around and staggered towards the inner hall while crying loudly, without giving Wu Yizhi any time to react.

At the same time, Wang Pu, who was sitting at the bottom, stood up.

"Mr. Wu, I, Wang Pu and Wang Wenbo, are being polite."

It's a joke, Wu Zong secretly hates His Majesty and Empress Dowager so much, why use his own body instead, really deceive Wu as a child.And those tears, probably also stimulated by the garlic water, right?

Wu Yizhi, who had reacted, complained about Zhao Yu's clumsy acting skills in his heart, and at the same time got up and returned the salute to Wang Pu.

The moment the two people's eyes met, Wu Yizhi suddenly had a premonition in his heart. The dignified and informal middle-aged man opposite him would probably be the most difficult opponent he had encountered during this trip.

…………

A crescent moon slowly rose to the sky, and the night enveloped the entire Qingzhou City.

In the study, looking at Wang Pu who pushed the door and entered, Zhao Yu personally made a cup of tea, put it in front of Wang Pu's desk, and said with a smile:

"Thank you for your hard work, sir. I wonder what the outcome of today's discussion with Mr. Wu will be?"

"Thank you sir."

After thanking Zhao Yu, Wang Pu sat down, raised his cup and drank the tea in one gulp, and said:
"Fortunately, I didn't disgrace my life. However, Wu Yizhi's intelligence is extremely high. With this person's assistance, I am afraid that there will be some twists and turns in planning to assist the country's generals."

After reminding Zhao Yu, Wang Pugang told Zhao Yu the results of the negotiation with Wu Yizhi one by one.
