Ge Nia was silent for a moment." I originally wanted to see what kind of person the ruler of the Qin Kingdom, which has the power to unify the world, was, and whether he was worth my protection.”
"Now it seems that I was thinking too much. With Your Majesty's strength, I'm afraid that not many people in the world can hurt him.”
"Oh?" " What?" Ying Zheng was a little surprised." The Ghost Valley seems to have nothing to do with the State of Qin. Why are you here to protect me?" Moreover, Phantom Valley's Art of Rampage hoped that the world would be in endless chaos. If the world was unified, there would be no room for Phantom Valley's Art of Rampage to be used. Logically speaking, Phantom Valley was the last person who wanted the world to be unified.”
The School of Political Strategy originated from the Haunted Valley. They were capricious and unpredictable. Their plans were mostly based on subjective political requirements.
Su, Zhang, Sun, and Pang, the four disciples of the Ghost Valley, were all influential figures in the Warring States Period. The seven kingdoms were all chess pieces in their hands. The more chaotic the world was, the more space there was for the art of unhindered movement to be used. If the world was unified, the art of unhindered movement would be very difficult to use.
"My parents died in the war." Ge Nie's expression was calm.”
Ying Zheng suddenly felt a little admiration for him, and said sincerely,""You're an anomaly in Phantom Valley."
"But from what you said, it seems like someone wants to assassinate me?”
Ge Nia nodded." That's why I rushed to the State of Qin. However, please forgive me for not being able to tell you who it is."”
Ying Zheng did not really care whether Ge Nia would tell him or not. It was just people like Jing Ke. With his current strength, even if Jing Ke could get close to him, it would be wishful thinking for him to assassinate him.
"You can stay by my side in the future.”Ying Zheng said.
Ge Nia raised his head and looked at Ying Zheng in surprise. He had never thought that Ying Zheng would allow him to stay. With Ying Zheng's strength, it was unnecessary for him to be protected.
Ying Zheng did not keep Ge Nia because of his strength, but because he was now a grandmaster, and in the future, he would at most be a great grandmaster.
Ying Zheng already had quite a number of Grandmaster-level warriors under him, and in the future, he would only have more and more of them.
Even if it was a great grandmaster, Ying Zheng would have many of them by his side in the future.
What Ying Zheng valued was Ge Nia's identity, so he revealed it to the public, setting an example for the Hundred Schools of Philosophy. Look, I can even use Guigu 'zi's disciple without worry, let alone you. Come on, as long as you dare to come, I dare to use you."
…………
In the Prime Minister's residence, Lu Buwei had been sitting for the whole night without resting. Zhao Gao was reporting the information he had found.
"These few days, the activities of the bad guys have become much more frequent. According to the information we found, they are building their own intelligence network.”
Lu Buwei understood. No wonder there were only a few records of bad people in the past. It turned out that they were basically not active, which could reduce the risk of being exposed. It was reasonable that there was no record.
Zhao Gao paused." The bad guys don't seem to have any intention of hiding their strength at all. Or rather, they deliberately exposed themselves so that we can find out their strength."”
"The bad man and the bad marshal are Primordial Chaos grandmasters. There are six grandmasters, fifteen Xiantian Lords, and more than thirty ninth-grade masters.”
"This is what you found?"
Zhao Gao looked at the bamboo slips carefully and said with certainty,""That's all the network found."
Lu Buwei murmured to himself," I sensed another great grandmaster the other day. The commander of the Mo Saber Guard is also a grandmaster, a Mo Saber Guard that is one with the Origin. Ying Zheng, how many have you been hiding?"”
At this moment, Lu Buwei finally made up his mind after weighing the pros and cons.
…………
"Your Majesty, the Prime Minister requests an audience."
Outside the palace, the chamberlain came to report.
"Lu Buwei requests an audience?"
Ying Zheng was slightly surprised. Lu Buwei had always been a man who would not visit the palace for no reason. Usually, other than seeing him in the Qilin Palace during court sessions, it was basically impossible for him to enter the palace at other times.
"Announce!"
Soon, Lu Buwei walked in and bowed.""I, Lu Buwei, pay my respects to Your Majesty.”
Ying Zheng nodded slightly." Prime Minister, you don't come to the Three Treasured Palace unless you have something important to report. Why can't you report it to the court tomorrow?"”
After Lu Buwei straightened his body, his gaze swept across the broken ground, then over Shi Yao and Ge Nie."Another two Grandmasters."
He knew that there were two great grandmasters and six great grandmasters by Ying Zheng's side. Including the commander of the Mo Saber Guards, there were seven great grandmasters, and with the two great grandmasters here, there were nine great grandmasters.
He didn't know that Shi Yao was one of the bad guys, so he thought that another grandmaster had appeared by Ying Zheng's side.
The Black Ice Platform, the Shadow Secret Guardians, and the Great Qin Imperial Clan definitely had a hidden Grandmaster.
"It seems that I made the right decision.”
Lu Buwei heaved a sigh of relief. Almost every day, Ying Zheng would give him a new 'surprise', and this surprise seemed to have no end. He never knew what new grandmaster would appear next to Ying Zheng.
"Prime Minister?"
Noticing Lu Buwei's absent-mindedness, Ying Zheng roughly guessed what he was thinking, so he reminded him.
Lu Buwei immediately came to his senses.”
"Nothing."
Ying Zheng waved his hand. In the beginning, Lu Buwei had given him quite a lot of pressure, but now, Lu Buwei was nothing to him. Every day, he would have one more expert under him who could at least suppress a grandmaster. Although Lu Buwei's net was powerful, it was nothing to him now.
Ying Zheng could even kill a Great Grandmaster like Lu Buwei if he wanted to. Even if Ying Zheng, Dugu Qiubai, and Yuan Tiangang did not make a move, dozens of people who had taken the Fruit of Redemption from the Horned Beetle could still hammer him to death.
It had to be said that having strength and not having strength were completely different.
When he had first become Ying Zheng, Ying Zheng's thought was to get rid of Lu Buwei. Now that he had Lu Buwei firmly under his control, his thought had changed to how to control Lu Buwei, make him submit obediently, and at the same time serve Great Qin.
Even if he didn't have martial strength, Lu Buwei was definitely a talented and capable person. There weren't many people like him in the seven countries.
