Qin Shi: Beginning as the first emperor's younger brother

Chapter 76
The next day.

noon.

Lu Buwei, who had just returned to Xianyang from outside the city of Liyang, was not in a hurry to deal with the mountain of government affairs that had piled up yesterday.

Today's him is much more leisurely and elegant than usual.

After getting out of the carriage, wandering in the street, watching the crowd surge in front of you, feeling the fireworks in the world.

Even his subordinates rarely saw Xiangbang being so excited.

"Recently, Xiangbang's physical condition has been very poor and lifeless. Now, he has finally regained some vitality."

Although a blindfolded middle-aged man couldn't see the expression on Lu Buwei's face at the moment, he could feel that his body was indeed no longer filled with death.

It's like spring on a dead tree.

Wonderful.

This man is the Duan Shui Sword master, one of the six sword slaves in the trap.

Standing beside him is Zhen Gang, the leader of the Six Swordsmen, "Master Xiangbang, he became so happy after meeting the champion. When I came here, I have been listening to Xiangbang say eight words .”

"Which eight characters?" Duan Shui asked curiously.

Zhengang replied: "The merit lies with the family and the country, and the crime lies with oneself."

Xiang Fuzhong.

Zheng Yi stood in front of the gate with a dejected face and teary eyes, welcoming Lu Buwei back home.

Before the latter returned to Xianyang, he had already received the news that Zheng Huo unfortunately fell off a cliff and died.

He guessed something, but he didn't say anything, and he didn't dare.

He could only hide his brother's death deep in his heart.

He remembered one thing.

When Champion Hou was assassinated by the Mohists in Yan State, Zheng Huo and Lao Ai were drinking in the city and beat several members of the clan.

Later, for some reason, Yingxi, the concubine in charge of the royal family, was angered.

It was a big deal at the time.

Fights even took place in the streets of Xianyang City.

A servant of the Prime Minister's mansion dared to commit murder against Si Che's concubine. According to Qin law, it would be a dead end.

If Lu Buwei hadn't put down his old face to beg Yingxi to let Zheng Kuo go, he would have died long ago.

Die now... I'm afraid that Xiangbang also feels that keeping him will only cause bad things.

When Zheng Yi thought of this, his heart was pierced like a knife.

The two brothers had worked with Xiangbang for many years, but they never expected that their younger brother would end up like this.

Will he do it himself.
He didn't dare to think about it anymore.

Because he has seen Xiangbang's chariot.

However, Xiangbang didn't take the carriage, but came with a happy face.

"Xiangbang."

After Lu Buwei approached, Zheng Yi bowed deeply.

The former patted him on the shoulder, and said earnestly: "I am responsible for the cause of Zheng Huo's death. Don't worry, you two brothers, no matter what, Truth will do everything possible to save one of you."

Zheng Yi bowed his head in silence.

He understood Xiangbang's meaning.

But he couldn't feel any gratitude.

"Could it be that, after doing things for you all my life, in the end, saving my brothers and sisters has become an extravagant thing?"

He didn't understand very much.

Although Xiangbang's health is getting worse now, but fortunately he is not terminally ill, relying on medicine every day, he can still persist in handling various complicated government affairs.

According to his situation, it is not a problem to live for a few years.

What does it mean to say such a thing now?
After returning home, Lu Buwei called Ba Linglong over.

A secret room.

Six Swordsmen hid in the dark and protected him.

Zheng Yibei stood behind him respectfully.

"I don't know Mr. Xiangbang, come to see me, what is the so-called?"

In the dark secret room, a candle was slowly lit, which immediately brightened the oppressive secret room a lot.

Eight shadows lined up in front of Lu Buwei.

One of them spoke.

Lu Buwei stroked his beard and pondered for a moment, and finally set his eyes on the shadow of Cheng Xu,

"It was the Marquis who used the divine sword to suppress the soul, and cooperated with the Yin Yang family's secret technique to temporarily let you reappear in the world. It took a lot of trouble during the period. Do you know why?"

Cheng Yu's voice sounded, "Who does Xiangbang want me to kill?"

To be more precise, he is no longer him, just a killing machine.

His life is also very strange.

There is a world of difference from normal people.

Hearing his voice, Lu Buwei said with a sinister smile: "What if the truth says that it wants you to be the king of Daqin?"

After the words fell, everyone looked up one after another, feeling shocked, speechless and silent for a while.

Speaking of this, who dares to say more?
Thunder flashes in the sky outside the secret room.

It filled the entire sky of Xianyang City.

The downpour of rain also fell on the ground as the thunder fell.

Qin Palace.

Yingzheng and Liqiu stood in the middle of a pavilion, and the wind and rain made it feel cool.

The former is fine.

The latter does not have the basic protection of martial arts, so the wind and rain are more difficult to bear.

"The widow will go to South Korea in a few days. The name is Sanxin. In fact, I want to see if there will be any changes in Lu Buwei after the widow goes to South Korea."

Yingzheng stares at the wind and rain, and is not afraid of it.

"Could it be that Xiangbang really has evil intentions?" Li Qiu doesn't know political affairs, and on weekdays, he also listens to others saying that Xiangbang is good or bad.

Gradually, she thought that Xiangbang was just a little greedy for power.

Wan would not do that kind of thing that kills the king with a minister.

Ying Zheng frowned and said, "Actually, the widow really thinks that Lu Buwei really has evil intentions. Over the years, the widow has not been able to find a good way to target him, mainly because he has not found a suitable reason.

Everything he did to Daqin made the widow respect him very much, but he held power, hindered the widow from governing himself, and had numerous officials, secretly controlled the royal court for many years, and some actions seemed to be beyond the reach.

But the widow couldn't find any evidence. This time, the widow entered Korea to give Lu Buwei a chance to see if he would do something disobedient. If he did, then as long as the champion can grasp the evidence, the distance between The time for the widow to govern in person is not far away. "

His meaning is very clear, if Lu Buwei can't sit still when he enters Korea, he will definitely take action.

As long as you have a clear understanding of his plan of action, you can deliver the final blow to him.

And then pro-government.

"Is Your Majesty in danger?" Li Qiu asked.

She doesn't understand these things, but she can imagine that this trip will definitely be dangerous.

After all, it was a foreign land.

And he is the king of Daqin.

There is no guarantee that no force other than Lu Buwei will attack him.

"The danger will definitely exist. Even so, the widow will still go. If the widow really encounters any accident, there will be champions in the country, and the widow's own brother will decide the world."

Speaking of this, he looked at Li Qiu, stroked her face, and said with a smile: "Perhaps, Lu Buwei will do nothing, the widow just went out to relax, and then returned to Qin State safe and sound. pro-government."

This is Ying Zheng's ambition.

He was never afraid of potential threats.

Because he has a firm belief that he can cut grass and roots.

How many people who have been able to accomplish things throughout the ages are afraid of death and danger?

All kinds of complicated situations in the future will be extremely severe challenges for Ying Zheng.

However, this young king has the courage, determination, and even perseverance to ride the wind and waves.

It is not a good thing that Daqin has the ability to go east now, and it is not a good thing to continue to stagnate. For Yu Guo, this is also a major reason why Yingzheng must bring down Lu Buwei.

Ying Zheng, who left Liyang City, walked slowly all the way.

There are still many towns he hasn't been to.

Basically there are weapons in stock.

Currently, he is in Gaoling City.

According to his status, he was supposed to live in the Sheriff's Mansion.

But he insisted on not wanting to live in the station.

Under the eaves, Ying Yuan watched the wind and rain, but he was thinking about the meaning of Lu Buwei's coming to see him.

The strong wind was blowing the heavy rain, as if holding countless whips, slamming the ground fiercely.

The temperature dropped and it became cold.

But Ying Yuan was unmoved.

Gradually, Li Tong came behind him.

"You don't want to go back to Xianyang. After the rain stops, the Marquis will present a memorial to the king and let you go and garrison Liyang." Ying Yuan was a little worried.

He believes that it is very likely that Lu Buwei is going to do something.

In any case, no matter how complicated the domestic political situation is, the border towns cannot be chaotic.

Li Tong didn't know why he made such a special arrangement, but he readily accepted the order, "No!"

After saying the word Shen Sheng, he stood silently behind Ying Yuan.

"I have done everything that can be done. I hope the king will go to Korea in the future and it will be smooth sailing."

Ying Yuan frowned tightly.

The heavy rain made him even more irritable.
