"Damn it! Han Yu, Ran Xiu, just you wait!”After returning from the palace, Ji Wuye had accumulated a bellyful of anger.
After entering the general's residence, Ji Wuye smashed everything in front of him.
Although King Han did not say that he would be stripped of his military power, Ji Wuye knew that the new general would definitely be the trusted aide of King Han and Han Yu. He would not be able to command that part of the army as he pleased like before.
"General, what happened?" After Ji Wuye had vented enough, a slightly fat middle-aged man walked in from the door and looked at Ji Wuye in confusion.
"Humph, today, Han Yu and the envoy of the Qin country, together with the addition of Zhang Kaidi's help, about one-sixth of the army in my hands has escaped from my control.”Ji Wuye narrowed his eyes, emitting a bloodthirsty light.
Although this portion of the army was not enough to hurt him, and it did not matter even if it was completely controlled by Han Yu, he could not swallow this anger.
First, Han Fei tricked him about the ghost soldiers 'robbery, and now, Han Yu made him suffer such a big loss. Ji Wuye would never let it go.
"Tiger, do you have any information about the envoy of the Qin country?”Ji Wuye knew everything about Han Yu, but he knew nothing about Ran Xiu.
" No, I only know that the King of Qin met Ran Xiu when he went out to patrol in civilian clothes. His arrogant words aroused the interest of the King of Qin. After that, the King of Qin summoned Lu Buwei into the palace. The three of them had a secret discussion for a long time. The next day, they announced that Ran Xiu was going to the Han Country.
In addition, Ran Xiu had two beautiful wives who had come with him to Han Country.”
Ran Xiu's identity was extremely mysterious even among the Yin-Yang School. In the State of Qin, only the King of Qin knew that he was from the Yin-Yang School. Lu Buwei only thought that he was a gambler, a gambler who could gamble his life for power and position.
Before meeting Lu Buwei, Ran Xiu and Ying Zheng had put on a show. Ran Xiu had stopped Ying Zheng, who was on an inspection tour in civilian clothes, and told him that he had a military strategy that could help the King of Qin unify the seven kingdoms.
After that, Ying Zheng naturally found Lu Buwei to test Ran Xiu, and the result was naturally praised by Lu Buwei.
However, since he was brought here by Ying Zheng, Lu Buwei would not let Ran Xiu be an official so easily. Instead, he chose Han Country as the final assessment, which was exactly what Ran Xiu and Ying Zheng wanted.
With Ying Zheng's strength alone, it was impossible for him to convince the ministers to send a mysterious person like Ran Xiu to represent the Qin Dynasty. Only Lu Buwei and Ying Zheng could do it.
"What's the difference between having this information and not having it?”Obviously, Ji Wuye did not want to know about this. "Have you inquired about the contents of their secret discussion?”
"However, I heard that Ran Xiu found a beautiful woman from somewhere last night and was happy until dawn. If it wasn't for the fact that he had to pay his respects to the king today, he might not have gotten out of bed.”The Jade Tiger suddenly remembered a piece of news.
"Oh, looks like he's very lecherous? That's true. He was on a diplomatic mission to another country and even brought two women with him. How could he not be a lecherous person?”Ji Wuye's mood improved after receiving this information.
Since a person had flaws, it was naturally easy to control them.
"Men, go to the posthouse and tell Qin Shi that I will hold a banquet for him at the General's Mansion tomorrow night.”
"Yes." A servant immediately went to the posthouse.
Although Ji Wuye had been targeted by Ran Xiu today, he had no intention of dealing with him now.
After all, Ran Xiu was the envoy of Qin and would not stay in Han for long. Moreover, there was no benefit in dealing with him. Instead, it might give the strong Qin an excuse to attack Han.
In that case, he might as well befriend Ran Xiu. Since Han Yu could afford to hire Ran Xiu to deal with him, Ji Wuye could also use Ran Xiu.
"Alliance? A hostage? If they didn't attack Chu, they could still form an alliance, and the hostages had to go to Qin. If they couldn't get rid of Han Yu, Han Fei could.”Ji Wuye had already thought of how to deal with those who provoked him.
"General is wise." The Jade Tiger naturally understood what Ji Wuye meant and immediately flattered him.
…………
"As expected of someone the King of Qin values. I thought it would be good enough if he could cause some trouble for Ji Wuye, but I didn't expect him to directly make Ji Wuye lose a part of his military power.”
Compared to Ji Wuye's rage, Han Yu was a little smug.
That part of the army was nothing to Ji Wuye, but it was a great help to Han Yu. Although it was impossible for him to get all of it, he was content with half of it.
"Qian Cheng, I asked you to gather information on Ran Xiu. How much have you gathered?”After this incident, Han Yu had already acknowledged Ran Xiu's ability and had the idea of cooperating further.
"Father, there isn't much information about Ran Xiu.”The information Han Qiancheng had gathered was similar to what Ji Wuye and the others had gathered, but there was no deeper information.
"Lust?" Ran Xiu didn't hide what happened last night from anyone. Therefore, almost all the forces that had planted spies in the posthouse knew that Ran Xiu had gone out in the middle of the night to bring back a woman who had been indulging in debauchery until dawn.
"Hong Lian, she has also reached the age of marriage.”With Ran Xiu's ability and the recognition of the King of Qin, Han Yu knew that once his plan with Ran Xiu succeeded and he got rid of Ji Wuye, along with the few Cities that he had traded, even if Lu Buwei obstructed him, Great Qin would still have a place for Ran Xiu.
Although the Han Kingdom, which had lost Ji Wuye, had gotten rid of a tumor, it would inevitably fall into a period of weakness. At this time, they needed someone who could speak to the King of Qin to buy time for the Han Kingdom to get through this period of weakness.
Ran Xiu was Han Yu's favorite candidate.
…………
"Fourth brother, you might already be in cahoots with Ran Xiu.”Han Fei also saw that Han Yu and Ran Xiu must have reached some kind of agreement.
"Han Yu wants to join forces with Ran Xiu to eliminate Ji Wuye. It was a good thing that Ji Wuye was the only exception, but Ran Xiu might not be a good person. The people of the Yin-Yang School had never been kind people.”
Wei Zhuang thought that Han Yu was asking a tiger for its skin, and a slight carelessness could set him on fire.
"Is Ran Xiu's goal really just to persuade the King of Han to attack the Chu Country?”After listening to Han Fei's description of what happened in the imperial court today, the Purple Girl felt that Ran Xiu's purpose was more than that.
"I don't know. Maybe, maybe not.”
"Now, we can only wait and see. Our forces are too weak. Once we enter the battlefield ahead of time, we will definitely be crushed.”
…………
"You saw the contents of the cloth?”After the court session ended, King Han did not return to the rear palace. Instead, he stayed in the royal palace. He also dismissed his attendants, leaving only one servant behind.
" No, no," the chamberlain who had touched the cloth replied in a panic.
"Puchi!" The sound of a sword stabbing into flesh rang out. It was King Han who had drawn his sword and killed the chamberlain.
"Men! Dispose of this slave's corpse."
