What Lu Buwei meant was that apart from him, His Highness would choose one of the five people present to go to the border of Zhao State to receive Ying Zheng!
Meng Ao, Wang Jian, Wei Liao, Feng Quji, and Ying Song looked at each other mouth to mouth, nose to nose, and eye to eye, as if they had not heard Lu Buwei's words.
Meng Ao was a famous general, and Wang Jian was in his prime, so he had Dragon and Tiger Cavalry under him that he had personally trained.
Although Feng Quji was a scholar, his son, Feng Jie, was a soldier and was now the general guarding the city gate of Xianyang.
Wei Liao was also a master of military strategy. Other than being proficient in the art of war, he was also a top expert in the world.
There was no need to mention Ying Song. Prince Qinzhuang had maintained a repressive attitude towards Lord Gaoling's line. His goal was to take back Ying Song's title, military power, land, and assets!
From Ying Song's perspective, he did not have a good impression of Prince Zhuang.
The entire hall fell silent, and Lu Buwei was too embarrassed to give orders.
As a businessman, Lu Buwei wouldn't make a losing deal.
"Song, you are Lord Gao Ling and a member of the royal family!”
Qin Zhuangwang's face turned slightly pale. He broke the silence and said,""In terms of bloodline, you are Ying Zheng's elder brother.”
"Ever since you inherited Gao Lingjun's position, you've made great contributions. I believe you won't disappoint me.”
Ying Song heard Prince Qinzhuang's name and walked out from the left.
Ying Song bowed slightly to Prince Zhuang and cupped his hands.""Prince Qinzhuang, although I don't want to disappoint my younger brother whom I've never met before, I'm destined to disappoint you.”
"Ying Song, what do you mean?”Prince Qinzhuang's aura was like the ocean, pressing down on Ying Song.
Ying Song could feel that he was like a small boat in the storm, swaying and swaying as if he would sink in the next moment.
When a person's prestige reached a certain level, he could also kill people.
Ying Song's face turned pale. He cupped his hands and said,""Prince Zhuang of Qin, you know that Song has been weak since he was young. He can't even control a horse freely.”
"The Great Qin Empire has always been fond of martial arts, from the royal family to the commoners.”
"Most of the spoils of war from the 5,000 old Qin soldiers stationed in the Nine Plains are given to them.”
"Other than a few maids, there are only a hundred Yellow-scarved Strongmen left in the Song Residence.”
"Song's life and the safety of the mansion require the protection of these hundred Yellow Scarf Warriors.”
"Moreover, I'm worried that my body will fall ill before I even leave Hangu Pass, which will delay the meeting with my brother, Ying Zheng.”
" Cough, cough, cough…" Ying Song's face turned even paler after he finished speaking. He started coughing and his body started to tremble as if he could not hold on any longer.
Prince Zhuang's imposing aura loosened slightly and he asked,""Then, Ying Song, who do you think is suitable?”
Although Prince Zhuang of Qin wanted to take over everything under Ying Song, Ying Song had already said that it was impossible.
Prince Zhuang of Qin was forcing Ying Song to go there. If Ying Song really fell ill before he could leave Hangu Pass, he would be sent back.
Although the royal family was now weak and no longer interfered in the affairs of the court, it was related to Lord Gao Ling. They would probably go all out to resist Prince Qin Zhuang.
Because the current Lord Gao Ling, also known as Ying Song, was the banner of the Qin royal family.
Ying Song cupped his hands together with trembling hands and said,"" I recommend Lu Buwei, Minister Lu!"
"Why?" Qin Zhuangwang asked in confusion.
In the main hall, be it Meng Ao or Wang Jian, Wei Liao or Feng Quji, they were all stronger than Lu Buwei.
Prince Zhuang was very suspicious of why Ying Song would recommend Lu Buwei. Was there some kind of conspiracy?
Ying Song's body trembled as he replied,""Minister Lyu is the most trusted person of Prince Qinzhuang.”
"After King Qinzhuang ascended the throne, he granted Lu Buwei the title of Prime Minister and Marquis Wenxin. He has a fief of 100,000 households in Luoyang, Henan Province. He is even favored by you, King Qinzhuang."
"Now, Minister Lu has three thousand customers and ten thousand servants.”
"Among the 3,000 customers, there are countless scholars and Jianghu experts.”
"Furthermore, Minister Lu is the Sect Master of the Hundred Schools of Philosophy, and his swordsmanship can be considered top-grade.”
Lu Buwei did know swordsmanship, but it was only at the upper middle level.
"What Lord Gao Ling said makes sense." Wei Liao walked to Ying Song's side from the left and cupped his hands.
Feng Quji also stood up and cupped his hands."I will repay the king's kindness!"
"Minister Lyu is deeply indebted to you, Prince Qinzhuang, and has sufficient ability. I also recommend Minister Lyu.”
Meng Ao and Wang Jian stood at the side without making a sound, quietly listening to the conversation of His Highness and the others.
Prince Zhuang's gaze swept past Ying Song, Wei Liao, and Feng Quji, who were standing in the middle of the palace, before finally stopping on Lu Buwei.
Prince Zhuang did trust Lu Buwei.
Moreover, he was indeed worried about handing over such an important task like Ying Zheng to someone else.
Lu Buwei understood the meaning in Prince Zhuang's eyes and said,""I'm willing to go to the border of Zhao to receive Ying Zheng.”
"Good!" " Prime Minister Lu," Prince Zhuang of Qin said," select some of your customers to go to the border of Zhao State to secretly receive my eldest son, Ying Zheng."”
"I, Lu Buwei, will not disappoint Prince Zhuang of Qin!”Lu Buwei lowered his head slightly and cupped his hands in front of his forehead.
The conversation between Prince Qinzhuang and Lu Buwei also signified the end of today's court meeting!
At the main gate of Xianyang Palace, Meng Ao got on the carriage while Wang Jian mounted his horse and left.
"Lu Buwei will remember Gao Lingjun's kindness today.”Lu Buwei cupped his hands at Ying Song, then got into the carriage and headed back to the manor.
"Today, Gao Lingjun offended Lu Buwei.”Wei Liao said.
" He's just a first-rank merchant," Ying Song said nonchalantly." So what if I offended him? What's the big deal?"”
"Gao Lingjun's words are reasonable."
Feng Quji's eyes were filled with disdain as he said,"A mere merchant is not worthy of being the Prime Minister of Great Qin.”
"However, I still need to make some preparations.”Ying Song bowed towards Wei Liao and Feng Quji,"After I return to the residence, I will pass down the order. Song was surprised and needs to recuperate for a period of time. At that time, I look forward to Lord Wei and Lord Feng's visit.”
