Su Mu looked around and confirmed that no one stood up to advise him. Then, he returned to his seat and sat down.
Swoosh!
The immense pressure that was pressing down on them instantly disappeared.
Everything returned to normal, as if nothing had happened.
However, the officials below did not think so.
They were faintly afraid.
He even warned himself not to provoke Su Mu in the future.
Because they understood that going against Su Mu was no doubt going against Ying Zheng.
Ying Zheng had chosen to turn a blind eye to what Su Mu had done to them just now, pretending that he had not seen anything.
If he still foolishly went against Chehou Su Mu, he might lose his life!
Ying Zheng looked down with a dignified expression. No one raised their heads." Since there's nothing else to report, we'll withdraw from the court," he said.”
"Retreat ~"
"Ten thousand years for the Great King, ten thousand years for the Great Qin!"
After that, all the officials left the court one after another after seeing Ying Zheng off.
Those ministers who were once under Lao Ai's command only wanted to leave the palace as soon as possible, because they were afraid of seeing Su Mu again.
Only Prime Minister Lu Buwei remained in the court, unwilling to leave.
Su Mu stood up and was about to leave.
Before he left, he glanced at Lu Buwei.
Coincidentally, Lu Buwei was also looking at him.
Swoosh!
The two of them immediately looked at each other.
But the next second, Lu Buwei lowered his head, beads of sweat the size of beans appearing on his forehead.
"What has been done will be done again. What has been done will be done again.”
When he finished speaking, Su Mu's figure had already left the court and disappeared.
Lu Buwei stood up after he felt the pressure disappear.
However, he realized that his legs had gone soft.
"Prime Minister!"
"Prime Minister?"
There were still a few ministers who had not left.
They were all under Lu Buwei.
"It's nothing. We'll talk when we get back!"
Lu Buwei waved his hand.
In the end, he left the palace with the help of a few people.
.........
After leaving Zhangtai Palace, Su Mu was not in a hurry to return to his residence.
Instead, he was led by a eunuch to Ying Zheng's bedroom.
"Mister Su Mu, I can finally hold my head high in court today!”
"In the past, no matter what advice those ministers had, it was Zhongfu who made the decision.”
"Today, Zhongfu doesn't even dare to say a word!”
Ying Zheng looked very happy.
The main reason was that he had been suppressed for too long.
In the past, during the morning court, those ministers were clearly advising him, so he should have made his own decisions.
But every time he was about to speak, Lu Buwei would interrupt him and make the decision for him.
This made Ying Zheng very unhappy.
"Today, Lu Buwei is just thinking of a plan.”
"There's no need to worry about anything else.”
"It's just that when you have nothing to do, you can go to the Empress Dowager's place more often.”
"Remember, it's better to go quietly. This way, you'll be pleasantly surprised.”
Su Mu reminded.
After much consideration, he decided that it was better to let Ying Zheng discover Lady Zhao's new continent by himself.
This way, it was easier for her to accept it.
What if Su Mu told Ying Zheng directly that his mother had given birth to two younger brothers for him, and they were both Lao Ai's brothers?
I'm afraid Ying Zheng had a cerebral hemorrhage on the spot.
This explosive news was not something that ordinary people could accept.
"Mother?"
Ying Zheng was slightly taken aback.
He naturally understood the hidden meaning in Su Mu's words.
He just didn't understand why he had to visit his mother secretly.
Finally, Su Mu left the palace.
.........
.........
In the State of Zhao.
The Prime Minister's Residence.
"Lord Prime Minister, those swordsmen have been brought to the main hall.”
An attendant said to Guo Kai softly.
"Well done. This is your reward.”
Guo Kai took out a brocade pouch from his bosom and threw it to the attendant.
"Thank you, Lord Prime Minister!"
The attendant was delighted when he received it and immediately retreated.
Guo Kai arrived outside the hall. Before he entered, he saw five men dressed in strange clothes.
The five of them were filled with a thick murderous aura.
"I am Guo Kai, the Prime Minister of Zhao. Greetings, everyone!”
"Prime Minister Guo, I've heard a lot about you!"
The leader cupped his fists in response.
"All five of you are the 33 swordsmen of Spring and Autumn?”
Guo Kai asked softly.
"Not bad!"
"Brothers, introduce yourselves to the Prime Minister!”
"I am ranked 28th among the 33 swordsmen of Spring and Autumn, the Soul Severing Sword Chen Zhiyuan!”
"Ranked 29th, Calm Water Sword, Carefree!”
"I'm ranked 31st, God-Slaying Sword Vajra!”
.........
Guo Kai couldn't help but reveal a satisfied expression after hearing the five people introduce themselves.
Although they were all ranked lower, they were still the 33 swordsmen of Spring and Autumn!
For Guo Kai, it didn't matter whether a swordsman was ranked or not.
Moreover, those swordsmen who were ranked higher would spend more money.
There wasn't much commission to begin with.
If he honestly took the gold cakes that Zhao Wangyan gave him to find the top swordsmen, he would probably have to pay for it.
To Guo Kai, this was absolutely not allowed.
Moreover, Guo Kai also understood that these swordsmen were just a precaution.
The true main force would depend on Zhao and the other empires.
After all, these swordsmen alone were not enough to kill enemies and attack cities on the battlefield.
"Come, heroes!"
"These are all deposits!"
"As long as it's done, you won't be spared.”
Guo Kai took out five heavy bags from his pocket and handed them to Chen Zhiyuan and the others.
"Prime Minister Guo, don't worry. When we need to take action, we can just send someone to inform him!”
"The journey is long, so we won't stay any longer.”
Chen Zhiyuan cupped his fists again.
Not only him, but the other four were also very satisfied with this.
"Good!"
"Then everyone, go to Xianyang first and wait patiently!”
"I won't send you off!"
Guo Kai nodded and followed suit.
After the five of them left.
Guo Kai picked up the honey paste on the table and drank it in one gulp.
"Guo Kai, oh Guo Kai, you are indeed the smartest person in the country of Zhao!”
"I didn't use any destructive power, and I earned another 5,000 gold!”
"Hahahahaha!"
