As the King of Wei's suspicion grew, the King of Wei's heart trembled.
Great Qin's envoy arrived at Daliang for the second time. This time, the envoy was Cai Ze.
He was once the prime minister of the Great Qin Empire, but he retreated bravely and gave up his position as prime minister.
Cai Ze's arrival made the King of Wei take this matter very seriously. He felt that this was proof that Great Qin wanted to make peace. After all, Cai Ze was quite famous among the vassals.
Cai Ze presented the gift that Great Qin had given to the King of Wei and said,""Your Majesty's intention to make peace with the Wei Kingdom is extremely sincere. The last time you came, it seemed that there was a misunderstanding between the Wei Kingdom and Lord Xinling, so Your Majesty is worried.
Thus, he specially asked me to send a gift to express the King's intentions of making peace with the King of Wei. By the way, where is Lord Xinling? The king respected Lord Xinling very much, so Duke Xue was also treated politely in Xianyang.
I have received the King's orders. I have a gift and a letter from the King to give to Lord Xinling.”
The first half of Cai Ze's words made the King of Wei very happy, but the second half made his expression extremely ugly.
He was the King of Wei, but his words were filled with respect for Lord Xinling, and he seemed to be turning a blind eye to him.
How could he accept this?
However, the King of Wei could not act immediately.
He forced a smile and said,""Lord Xinling is still in the manor. Why don't the envoy pay him a visit at Lord Xinling's manor?”
"That's good, that's good." Cai Ze laughed.”
Cai Ze's smile made the King of Wei even more suspicious. He had a feeling that he was going to talk to Lord Xinling about some confidential matter. Cai Ze was a famous lobbyist among the vassals. If it was just a simple friendship, there was no need for the King of Qin to let Cai Ze come personally.
After Cai Ze left.
The King of Wei paced back and forth, feeling even more worried.
He decided to go to Lord Xinling's residence to see what Cai Ze and Lord Xinling were talking about.
At this moment, a eunuch walked in quickly.
"Your Majesty, in the envoy team of the State of Qin, there was a person who gave this letter, saying that His Highness the Crown Prince had asked him to deliver it.”
The King of Wei frowned. Crown Prince Zeng was in Xianyang as a hostage. Why would he suddenly send such a letter?
He opened the secret letter, and the more he read, the more shocked he became. It turned out that the State of Qin was planning to honor Lord Xinling as the King of Wei.
No wonder the King of Qin sent Cai Ze to Wei.
The King of Wei could no longer sit still.
He immediately set off for Lord Xinling's residence.
At this moment, in Lord Xinling's residence, Lord Xinling and his henchmen were also looking at the secret letter that Cai Ze had handed to Lord Xinling with a strange expression. This secret letter had already been opened.
Lord Xinling looked at Cai Ze and said,""This is?"
"Lord, please take a look at it yourself. I have no right to read the King's secret letter." Cai Ze said with an indifferent expression.”
Lord Xinling frowned. Beside him, Mao Gong quickly whispered something into his ear.
Lord Xinling immediately understood.
He sneered,"It's another sowing discord!" I should take this secret messenger back myself.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of the King of Wei's arrival could be heard from outside.
The King of Wei walked in quickly. The first thing the King of Wei saw was the secret letter in Lord Xinling's hand. The secret letter had already been opened.
The King of Wei thought to himself that it was fortunate that he had arrived quickly.
He also saw that Cai Ze had given him more gifts than he had given him.
Suspicion and jealousy were intertwined in the King of Wei's heart.
"Lord Xinling, may I take a look at the letter?" the King of Wei asked in a deep voice.”
Lord Xinling had a clear conscience, so of course he wouldn't refuse.
"Your Majesty, this is the Qin people's plan to sow discord. I didn't read this secret letter.”
With that, he handed the secret letter to the King of Wei.
The King of Wei looked at the letter that had clearly been opened and snorted coldly in his heart. Lord Xinling actually said that he had not opened such obvious evidence.
He opened the secret letter and saw many changes.
However, he could still roughly understand it.
" Young Master's fame has spread throughout the world. There is no one in the world who does not fall in love with you. I wonder when you will inherit the throne of King Wei…"
The King of Wei handed the secret letter to Lord Xinling. When Lord Xinling saw the contents of the letter, he was instantly shocked. This Qin person was really vicious.
Lord Xinling knew his brother too well. He was naturally suspicious.
Now that he saw such a secret letter, it was impossible for him not to suspect himself.
He said,"Your Majesty, these are the Qin people's plans to sow discord. They deliberately altered it."”
"I know," said the King of Wei."Why don't you write back and reject the King of Qin?"”
"Yes!" Lord Xinling said.
He took a pen and paper and immediately rejected the king's kindness.
At the same time, he handed it over to Cai Ze.
Cai Ze took in everything.
He sneered in his heart. The most powerful part of Zhao Mu's plan was that he had already grasped the King of Wei's character, even if Lord Xinling was doing it openly.
The suspicion of the King of Wei would not disappear.
Cai Ze returned to Xianyang with Lord Xinling's letter.
Lord Xinling knew that the King of Wei was beginning to suspect him. He felt both indignant and helpless.
He had long seen his brother clearly.
"Lord, since things have come to this, why don't you resign?"”
Lord Xinling understood what Master Mao meant. If he resigned now, he could still save his life and continue to live a good life.
He was afraid that the King of Wei would kill him.
"I understand."
"I hope Xue Gong is fine."
Elder Mao sighed, not knowing what to say.
Back then, he and Duke Xue had tried their best to persuade Lord Xinling to lead the army to rescue Wei. Now that he thought about it, he felt a little regretful.
The King of Wei was naturally happy to see Lord Xinling's resignation.
He immediately agreed and gave Lord Xinling many gifts as a reward.
Lord Xinling looked at the gifts and couldn't help but laugh.
He could only hope that he would never see the day when the Wei Kingdom was destroyed.
By the time the plan to sow discord succeeded and Cai Ze returned from Wei, half a month had passed.
King Zhuang Xiang's illness had reached its final deadline.
He was holding on with one breath to know if his plan to sow discord had succeeded.
When Cai Ze returned and the news from the Network came, Lord Xinling had already resigned.
King Zhuang Xiang burst into laughter. His pale and bloodless face suddenly turned rosy, as if he was a healthy person.
