Eternal traitor

Chapter 42 The old man's request
Outside the palace, Lu Buwei ran all the way to the palace panting in a carriage. Fortunately, this time he was riding in a special green leopard carriage made by the "Baimao United", otherwise the bones would have been shaken apart.Before he had time to appreciate the excellence of the carriage, Lu Buwei hurriedly asked someone to hide his carriage, and then quickly ran in.

The imperial palace is really too big, even if it came to the nearest palace gate, it took Lu Buwei 10 minutes to trot all the way to the outside of the main hall.Running all the way, Lu Buwei felt that he was extremely hypoxic, and his lungs were about to explode. He hadn't run like this for a long time, and he couldn't stand it all of a sudden.

"Prime Minister Lu, what's the matter?? Looking at the sweat, I feel so sorry for our family."

Outside the gate of the main hall, the chief eunuch Qin Fei pinched his orchid finger and looked at Prime Minister Lu in surprise. He had never seen Lu Buwei who lost his composure before, so he probably had something important to do with his appearance.

"Hurry up, I have something important to ask the king."

Lv Buwei leaned on the pillar next to him out of breath, holding his cramp left leg with one hand and shouted to the eunuch in front of him with difficulty.

"Prime Minister wait a moment."

Realizing the seriousness of the problem, Qin Fei quickly walked into the palace to report.In less than 2 minutes, Qin Fei trotted out of the palace gate, lowered his head and said softly, "Prime Minister Lu, Your Majesty has summoned you."

"Okay." Lu Buwei hastily tidied up his clothes, just opened the door, seemed to think of something, and said cautiously to Qin Fei: "Don't say I'm here when Shuhou comes over later."

"This miscellaneous family understands."

Qin Fei thought about it for a while, then nodded and agreed. He has met the Marquis of Shu many times. He asked to see him once a few years ago, and he quarreled with the King of Qin. After that, he never came again. This time he came here again. There is trouble.

With Qin Fei's promise, Lu Buwei walked in quickly, and after carefully checking that there was no one behind, he closed the door.

Walking into the hall, Lu Buwei took a few quick steps, and accidentally tripped and fell to the ground.A hundred meters away, King Qin, who was high on the dragon chair, put away the memorial in front of him, and looked at the funny Lu Buwei with a smile on his lips. "What happened to make the Prime Minister panic like this?"

Lu Buwei hurriedly got up, and then said with a helpless expression: "The king has an accident."

In 5 minutes, Lu Buwei told the king of Qin what happened in the "United Hundred Trades", and repeated Li Hua's words verbatim. The face of the king of Qin who had a smile on his face gradually changed It looked ugly.

But before King Qin could speak, the door of the main hall opened again, and Qin Fei quickly stepped forward: "King Qizuo, the Marquis of Shu is asking to see you outside the hall."

King Qin frowned, and then waved lightly towards Lu Buwei. Lu Buwei instantly understood what King Qin meant, and quickly hid behind the palace.After seeing Lu Buwei hiding, King Qin issued an order: "Let him in."

"Yes."

After getting the order, Qin Fei ran out quickly. He couldn't afford to offend the old man outside the door. The old man almost forced his way just now.If I hadn't tried so hard to stop him, I'm afraid something would have happened.

Just a second after Qin Fei went out, the door of the main hall was pushed open.The anxious old man ran up in two or three steps, just about to kneel down and salute.King Qin quickly said, "Father Zhong, you don't need to be too polite, just give me a seat."

"Yes."

The little eunuch hurriedly took the prepared chair, and the old man sat down without being polite.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for understanding the old man."

In fact, the old master had already received the oral order from the king of Qin, seeing that he didn't need to kneel down, but the old man was also walking around, so he was given a seat before he knelt down.But today, he had something to ask for, so he went out of the way, otherwise he would be too lazy to act.

"Father Zhong was joking, we are a family, I don't know what's going on with you today?"

Qin Wang also said a few official words with a smile on his face, the older generation is just such a treasure, he doesn't want to make this old man go crazy.Even if he knew the purpose of the old man's visit, he still had to pretend.

"The old man is old, and he couldn't go far in a car before. But today I got a precious car, and sitting on it can reduce the bumps, which also allows the little old man to go out for a while. I don't think the little old man in the state of Qin could go far." What's the use, bid farewell to the king today, go to travel around the world, and implore the king to help you."

After all, he is a relative of the emperor. Although he has no official position, but his special status makes him want to get out of the territory of Qin, and he still needs the nod of the king of Qin, otherwise the matter can be big or small.

"This, this, father Zhong wants to leave Qin State??"

King Qin pretended to be surprised, looked at the old man in front of him in surprise, even stood up from the throne, walked down the steps in two or three steps, and asked with concern.People who don't know see such a scene, they will really think that the relationship between the two is so friendly.

"Please complete it, Your Majesty."

Shu Hou didn't say anything, just pushed aside the chair and knelt in front of King Qin.In terms of seniority, when I was young, the current king of Qin saluted me, but according to the etiquette of kings, now that he is the king of Qin, you should also bow down.

King Qin "panicked" for a moment, and hurriedly helped the old man on the ground to the chair, touched the old man's thin arm, and the long-buried family affection in his heart was touched at once. Although the old man had done some wrong things before, but That is already the grievance of the older generation.Could it be that he really imprisoned this old man in Qin State until he died? ?

"Father Zhong, let Gu think about it."

At this moment, King Qin was really reluctant to part with this stubborn old man.Since he came to the throne, the old man came only once, saying that he wanted to leave Qin, but after being rejected by himself, he made a fuss and left.Two years have passed, and the old man came again with the same request, what should I do?
"My lord, I have something to say and I don't know whether I should say it or not."

Of course, Old Hou knew what King Qin was struggling with. To be honest, this might be the last time he begged King Qin. If he was rejected again, he might really give up.

"They're all from my own family, why should Father Zhong be polite??"

Qin Wang looked at this old man who had aged a lot, and his heart softened.He knew that the old man had suffered a lot these years, but he didn't intervene.Looking back now, the stubborn old man who has redeemed himself for more than 20 years has really become too much.Without the arrogance and ambition of the past, all that remains is the wish to leave Qin.
