I Want To Be Qin II

Ying Gao slashed his sword frantically under the moonlight, venting the anxiety, excitement and madness deep in his heart.

"Peng..."

Sword after sword, Ying Gao is like a monster who doesn't know how to get tired, venting on a moonlit night.

Above the attic, Wang Jian and Wang Ben slowly faded away, and everything returned to normal.

...

At this moment, Qin Wangzheng was also unable to sleep. He has already received the report from the old Tingwei and the Guozheng Supervisor, and the mountain that was pressing on his head has completely disappeared.

However, at this moment, while Qin Wangzheng felt a sigh of relief, he also felt a sense of emptiness, and a huge pressure hit him, making him feel even more dangerous.

He knew that one mountain fell, and another one lay before his eyes.

However, for Qin Wangzheng, his feelings for Lu Buwei are complicated.

He knew in his heart that without Lu Buwei's help, he would not be able to become the prince of Daqin, nor would he be able to become the king of Qin, let alone defeat Lai Ai in Qinian Palace.

But Lu Buwei's involvement with the Empress Dowager Lai Ai, this thorn, kept the young King Qin awake for a long time.

He knows that he not only hopes to conspire with Lu Buwei, but also wants to destroy Lu Buwei...

At this moment, Qin Wangzheng didn't know which idea had the upper hand.

...

At this moment, Lu Buwei, who was in the Wenxin Academy, also couldn't sleep. Looking at the bright moon in the sky, he was full of thoughts and thought too much.

Many past events that have been floating in my heart for many years, at this moment, come to my mind one after another.

Lao Ai and the Queen Mother acted insanely, often making him sit up in the middle of the night, no matter how many times he felt unbelievable, but he still soberly calculated every detail of this matter countless times, and wanted to make the final remedy.

However, the menacing Lai Ai and the lustful queen mother already vaguely possess the strength to compete with him.

The big mistake has been made, however, what makes Lu Buwei most distressed is that he cannot end this most embarrassing situation in the most appropriate way.

He once sent the most brilliant swordsman to assassinate Lai Ai, but Lai Ai escaped one by one. He also sent Mo Hu into the Liangshan Summer Palace more than once to persuade the Queen Mother to give up Lai Ai...

It's just that the queen mother has already fallen into the pit, and his old and weak body can no longer pull it up.

If all his schemes hadn't failed, seeing that Lai Ai and the Queen Mother were becoming more and more lawless, he would not openly support King Qin's pro-government, let alone secretly assist King Qin to destroy Lai Ai and affect Zhao Ji.

Thoughts flickered in his mind, Lu Buwei's heart became colder and colder. Especially when the school student brought back King Qin's letter to the government and his subjects, it made him even more disheartened.

The king of Qin regards the chaos of Lai Ai as a national humiliation and legal disgrace, and his sharp edge directly points at his political strategy.

The "Letter to the Court and the People" directly pointed out that his "suspension of the law and lenient punishment" was the source of chaos in the country.

But he, Wen Xinhou, the prime minister of Daqin only found out after the fact, which made Lu Buwei faintly uneasy.

The moonlight was cold, just like Lu Buwei's state of mind at the moment, he felt lonely after half his life.

"Marquis Wen Xin, you are so free..."

Just when thoughts flickered in Lu Buwei's mind, and the dusty past kept reappearing, an old laughter came from behind, which immediately shocked Lu Buwei.

He was so focused on things that he didn't even notice that someone walked behind him, but the one who came today was a killer, and his head might have already fallen to the ground.

Frowning slightly, Lu Buwei restrained his mind: "Gang Chengjun?" When he turned his head to see the appearance of the visitor, he couldn't help but smile sassyly, and said, "Come, sit under the pavilion—!"

Walking through a small path paved with bluestone slabs and entering the stone pavilion, Cai Ze shook his head: "Marquis Wen Xin, I want to drink Zhao wine, today you and I will get drunk!"

Lu Buwei smiled slightly, and waved to the servants outside the pavilion. After a while, the servants pushed the wine and food cart,

On the stone table in the pavilion, arrange the wine and dishes.

Lu Buwei signaled the servants to step back, and poured a cup of wine for himself and Cai Ze respectively: "You can just drink, Gang Chengjun, I don't have much here, just a lot of wine..."

"Marquis Wen Xin, let's say goodbye today, I don't know when we will meet again..." Said, Cai Ze picked up the wine cup and drank it down.

Lu Buwei was startled, he had already guessed in his heart: "Gun Chengjun is in Xianyang, if you want to drink with me, as long as Gang Chengjun is willing..."

Hearing this, Cai Ze put down the wine cup, and took a deep look at Lu Buwei: "This old man wants to resign, what does Marquis Wen Xin think?"

Cai Zezhi's words moved Lu Buwei's heart, he couldn't help it, and said: "Don't worry, after a while, you and I will go together..."

...

The two chatted for a long time, Cai Ze drank another cup of wine, and repeatedly clapped at Lu Buwei, saying, "I know what you're thinking, but I just want to tell you that you are wrong!"

"Your Majesty, the person who puts the most emphasis on state affairs, not grudges, and even less cares about rumors!"

Maybe he was planning to leave, Cai Zezhi said impassionedly, without any scruples: "Wang Shu seems to accuse you of politics, but in fact it opens up for you, and puts the blame on the former king!"

"To be honest, the old man also thinks that the administration of officials should be rectified. Over the years, Lao Ai has messed up the upper and lower government offices..."

Hearing Cai Zezhi's words, Lu Buwei smiled faintly and said, "If that's the case, why are you leaving again?"

"Ju Qin Wugong..."

...

"Kun Cheng!"

Lu Buwei unconsciously lowered his voice: "There are rumors: the king killed Lai Ai's two sons, how do you think this matter is understood?"

At this time, although Lu Buwei's three thousand disciples were all there, he knew that such a matter could not be discussed at all.

If it wasn't for Gang Chengjun Cai Ze's arrival today, he wouldn't know who to tell. Now that he has had a few cups of wine, Lu Buwei is not hiding.

"Ha ha……"

With a big laugh, Cai Ze shook his head at Lu Buwei and said, "This is simply nonsense!"

"The old man entered the Dazheng Palace in Yongcheng together with Zhao Gao, and saw the rebel army killing two sons by mistake. What does this have to do with the king?"

"This is just someone with a heart slandering the king!"

Speaking of this, Cai Ze said again: "Speaking of which, it is also God's blessing to the Queen Mother. Chang Wenjun told the old man that since the Queen Mother Xuan, there is one more family rule of the Ying Clan."

"As long as it's a queen or queen mother, it doesn't matter what the personal relationship is. If you give birth to an illegitimate child, the mother and child must be executed together in the imperial temple—!"

"Now that the two sons are dead, isn't there a way to open up for the Queen Mother..."

...

"Why……"

Lu Buwei hissed for a long time, and after thinking for a while, he said to Cai Ze, "According to Mr. Gang Cheng's opinion, will the case of Lai Ai continue to be punished and sweep the entire court?"

This is what Lu Buwei is most worried about, because he knows that once this matter is pursued, there will inevitably be a large gap in the Qin Dynasty.

This will be a devastating blow to Daqin, which is thriving today.
