"This must be the Sword Master of the Sword of Concealment, ranked first in the sword manual. Greetings, Wei Yong.”
Upon seeing the nameless Wei Yong, he immediately greeted him with a smile.
No matter how powerful the faction was, they had to be polite to Nameless, who was currently ranked first in the sword manual.
Moreover, Wu Ming's influence in the scholarly faction wasn't small, so he deserved Wei Yong's respect.
"Greetings, Sikong One. It's not me who came to see you this time, but the one beside me.”
Wei Yong looked at Zhao Yu, who was beside Wu Ming. At first, he thought that this person was just Wu Ming's follower. He didn't expect him to be the main character.
"And this is?"
Zhao Yu coughed and took a step forward.
"Zhao Yu of the Qin country greets Lord Sikong One.”
Qin Country? Wei Yong's expression started to turn ugly. Among the seven countries, the one with the worst relationship with Qin was Zhao, followed by Wei.
Qin and Wei had fought for dozens of years and won almost every match. Wei had ceded a large amount of land to Qin.
Hearing that this person was from the State of Qin, Wei Yong naturally did not give Zhao Yu a good look.
However, the name Zhao Yu was very familiar.
"Zhao Yu, Zhao Yu, could it be Young Master Yu?”Wei Yong muttered Zhao Yu's name, and a thought suddenly flashed in his mind.
In the Cheng Jiao Rebellion, Cheng Jiao's faction was basically wiped out by Lu Buwei, except for one public student who ran away.
The royal family of the Qin Country was originally surnamed Zhao, so it was not impossible for them to change Ying Yu's surname to Zhao Yu in order to hide their identity.
If it was really Childe Yu, then Wei Yong would pay attention to him because he was a very important chess piece to control the Qin Country.
"So it's Childe Yu. When I heard that Childe Yu was being chased, I was so worried that I couldn't sleep at night. Now that I see that Childe Yu is safe and sound, I can finally relax.”
As expected of a high-ranking official. A second ago, he was still looking at Zhao Yu with disdain, but the next second, after confirming that Zhao Yu was of value, he immediately changed to a smiling face.
"Hehe, there are many people in the seven countries who are worried about my safety. I didn't expect Sikong One to be one of them.”Zhao Yu looked at Wei Yong with a faint smile.
At that moment, Wei Yong felt as if his thoughts had been seen through by this young man.
This was the first time Wei Yong, who had been an official for decades, felt this way. It made him feel very uncomfortable.
However, he could only smile. Zhao Yu was too important to the other six states.
Now that Lu Buwei, Lao Ai, and Ying Zheng were fighting for power, the already dangerous Qin State had a tendency to split up.
If Zhao Yu, who belonged to Cheng Jiao's faction, were to intervene in this power struggle, then the State of Qin would really fall into a long period of internal strife.
At that time, it would be the best time for the six countries to destroy the Qin country.
And now, this chess piece that could decide the fate of the Qin Country had fallen into Wei Yong's hands, and he, Wei Yong, would become the hero who destroyed the Qin Country.
Wei Yong's gaze became gentler and gentler. He looked at Zhao Yu as if he was looking at a rare treasure.
Wei Yong's gaze made Zhao Yu shudder.
" F * ck, is this old man gay?'
"Ahem, Sir Sikong One, what should we do now?”Wu Ming reminded Wei Yong. The two of them were still standing here. Why couldn't they sit down and talk?
Wei Yong smiled apologetically as he snapped out of his daze. He quickly let the two of them take their seats and ordered the servants to serve food and wine. At the same time, he made a gesture at a place where Zhao Yu and Wu Ming could not see.
After the dishes were served, Wei Yong raised his glass and toasted Zhao Yu.
"This first cup is to congratulate Gongzi Yu for escaping. This old man will first toast to you.”
Zhao Yu smiled and raised his glass in response. His mission was to stall Wei Yong, so it was not bad to freeload.
After drinking a glass of wine, Wei Yong sighed and pretended to be in pain.
" What happened between Young Master Cheng Jiao and Lord An Wen is truly a pity. That Ying Zheng is just a bastard with an unknown identity. However, with Lu Buwei's support, he managed to sit on the throne. The real throne should belong to Lord Chang 'an.”
An Wenjun was Zhao Yu's father, Ying Wen.
Zhao Yu immediately knew that this old man was trying to sow discord. If his guess was correct, Wei Yong was going to discuss with him about working together to overthrow Ying Zheng.
He had to put on a full act, and Zhao Yu looked indignant.
" Sikong One is right. We don't know if Zhao Zheng is the former king's biological son. Lu Buwei dared to make him the king of Qin and kill my whole family just because he was favored by the former king. It's really detestable."”
Looking at Zhao Yu's expression of wanting to eat Lu Buwei alive, Wei Yong knew that there was a chance. He quickly added fuel to the fire,"
"That Zhao Zheng has been under Lu Buwei and Zhao Ji's control for many years. He's already twenty-one years old and has long reached the age to govern himself, but he's been delayed by Zhao Ji and Lu Buwei. He doesn't have any temper at all. Several generations of kings of the State of Qin have been the current rulers, but such a useless thing has appeared.”
Wei Yong sighed as he observed Zhao Yu's expression. When he saw that Zhao Yu's expression was getting uglier and uglier, the smile on his face grew wider and wider.
"Sigh, Sikong One is right. My Qin country's fifth generation Yu Lie was destroyed by Zhao Zheng.”
Wei Yong saw that Zhao Yu's emotions had been completely adjusted and knew that he should get down to business.
"You're right, it's such a pity. Originally, Young Master Cheng Jiao was the most suitable candidate for the position of King of Qin, but unfortunately, he died. However, a public student is also a member of the royal family. It's better for you to be the King of Qin than for an unknown person to be in charge of the Qin country.”
Wei Yong's gaze was fixed on Zhao Yu, as if he wanted to see through Zhao Yu.
Hearing this, Zhao Yu's expression changed drastically. He was no longer as calm as before, but rather, he was extremely flustered. He was like a child who had been hiding a secret in his heart and was discovered by an adult.
Wei Yong noticed the change in Zhao Yu's expression. He knew that he should strike while the iron was hot.
"Childe Yu is a promising young man. He was only ten years old, but he already knew the languages of the seven countries. When he was eighteen years old, he only moved Xianyang. Compared to Childe Yu, Zhao Zheng is like heaven and earth.”
Zhao Yu's breathing became heavier and heavier. His eyes were filled with desire, and Wei Yong's smile grew wider and wider.
Just as Wei Yong thought that his plan was about to succeed, Zhao Yu suddenly changed his expression. Wu Ming, who was drinking, laughed and said,
"How was it, Wuming? I acted well, right?”
