There was a cavalry team of more than a hundred people guarding the low-key exterior but luxurious interior of the carriage in the center. It was traveling on the official road.
Apart from the dozen or so Qin guards who were protecting Ying Wei, the rest of the hundred men cavalry were from the Qi Kingdom.
The Qin Kingdom pursued the principle of making friends far away and attacking near. They had always been on good terms with the Qi Kingdom. The two countries were separated by Han, Wei, and other countries, so there was no conflict of interest for the time being.
Naturally, when Ying Wei, the Lord of Chang 'an, was about to return to the Qin Kingdom, he would hand over the document and be escorted by the Qi Kingdom's army to prevent any accidents from happening to him in the Qi Kingdom.
Although the number of elite troops was not large, as long as they were not schemed against, the bandits would not dare to covet them.
"Ruler, the Qi Wei border is in front.”
After the carriage arrived at the border of the two countries, it temporarily stopped. The head guard of the Qin country rode to the side of the carriage and respectfully said.
Ying Wei pulled open the curtain of the car window and nodded at the guard captain. He asked,"…Did you hand over the document to the Wei border guards?”
At the border between the two countries, even if Ying Wei's convoy only had a dozen guards, they would still be questioned if they wanted to pass through.
"Ruler, I have already informed them, but Wei Country didn't send anyone to escort you.”
At this point, the guard captain looked angry. The dignified Lord Chang 'an of the Qin State was passing through the Wei State, but the King of Wei did not send anyone to escort him. This was outrageous. There was no etiquette at all. Was he bullying the Qin State?
Hearing the guard captain's words, Ying Wei's heart skipped a beat. He knew that there was a dragon's den and a tiger's den in front of him.
However, even if it was a dragon's pool or a tiger's den, he had to go through it. Otherwise, he might really have to stay in the Small Sage Manor for a few years and wait for Brother Zheng to kill Lu Buwei before he could return to the country.
However, by then, it would be too late, and Ying Zheng would probably have completely turned into that cold and heartless emperor. No one knew how much affection he would still have for his family.
Brother Zheng could still be saved now. At the very least, he wouldn't really be alone.
Just like what Ying Wei said to Li Si, whether it was icing on the cake or sending charcoal in the snow, it was all up to him.
Choice was the turning point that determined one's fate.
" When I was in the Qi Kingdom, the Network didn't make a move. A hundred Qi Kingdom cavalrymen is indeed troublesome, but this number isn't on the battlefield. The Network can solve it by paying a price.'
" That's right. Lu Buwei is preparing to kill me in the Wei Kingdom. This way, he can blame my death on the Wei Kingdom and start another war.'
" Lu Buwei, Lu Buwei, you even want to exploit a dead person. As expected of the most successful businessman in history.'
Ying Wei's eyes sparkled. At this moment, he understood Lu Buwei's true intentions. He was serious about killing him, and he was also serious about making use of his death to the extreme.
Since the King of Wei did not send anyone to escort them, it could be seen that the officials of Wei had also infiltrated the net.
Four years ago, when he had just left Wei for Qi, the Network had just taken root in Wei. Now that four years had passed, it was only natural that they had some achievements.
Even Ying Wei could guess what the King of Wei had said in the invitation. It was nothing more than that the Qin and Wei countries were often at war. If the Lord of Chang 'an was to cross the border, then so be it. If he sent troops to protect him, wouldn't it make the Wei Kingdom look inferior?
In the seven kingdoms, apart from the Qin Kingdom, the kings of the other kingdoms were not all fatuous, but it was true that they were all incompetent.
Then the King of Wei would probably really listen to the slanderous words and not send troops to protect him.
Of course, even if the King of Wei suddenly became smart and sent troops to protect him, as long as it was not that kind of army, the net could still pay a certain price to kill him.
Not to mention that the real trump card was never an external killer. The net's trump card was the person next to him, Startling Salamander.
Ying Wei's expression did not change even though he was thinking about some things. This was already the last moment. He could not let the net find out about his plan in advance.
At this moment, a general from the Qi army came to Ying Wei's carriage and said in a clear voice,""…Milord, we have reached the border. I will be returning to report on my work. I hope Milord can forgive me.”
Ying Wei smiled and said to this Qi Country leader,""…Thank you for escorting me, General."
Although Ying Wei was good at Legalism, most of the time, he did not need to use those methods. He always maintained the scholarly temperament of a scholar who studied in the Small Sage Manor. After all, his appearance was still important.
Moreover, this young general of Qi State was not a famous person, so Ying Wei would not be interested in him.
Ying Wei pulled down the curtain and sat back in the car.
