Hearing Xiao Liu’s words, Zhao Lang’s eyes narrowed slightly, but he didn’t half panic.
Just as he was about to speak to Chen Ping first, he heard Chen Ping say, with a smile
“Gongzi Long, I am not up to the task of drinking, I am afraid I have to go back to my room to rest first.”
It is said that Confucian students are comfortable to get along with, just this kind of eyesight and response, which seems normal.
But really, if it were an ordinary person, they might still be dumbfounded and waiting for the other side to explain.
Zhao Lang laughed.
“Good, I also happen to have some business, so I will meet you here first thing tomorrow morning.”
Chen Ping naturally agreed.
Only after Chen Ping had left did Zhao Lang and Xiao Liu walk outside and ask
“Did you counter-track?”
Xiao Liu had been trained at Go to Die, so naturally he would not lead people to the inn.
It was basic common sense, no need to ask.
Xiao Liu soon returned to the
“Chief, it has been counter-tracked, we will report back later, my subordinate speculates that it might be the Wei King’s men.”
Zhao Long gave Xiao Liu a somewhat surprised look, the other party was pretty much what he thought, but he still asked, deliberately
“How so?”
Xiao Liu quickly returned that
“The other party followed us when my subordinate and the merchant girl were returning from the caravan’s contact point.”
“Here, only King Wei knows about the merchant caravan, and as we have produced interactions with the other party before, it makes sense for him to keep an eye on the caravan’s movements. ”
“Of course, this is only my subordinate’s guess.”
Zhao Lang nodded and said that
“This guess is well-founded, not bad.”
Zhao Lang was still pleased that his subordinates were growing, so it seemed that Xiao Liu was much more reliable than Xi.
Soon, the man who was following them came back with a report.
Sure enough, it was Wei Wang’s men from before.
Xiao Liu looked to Zhao Lang.
“Since they’re all here, it’s good to meet them.”
Zhao Lang said indifferently.
Now, among the six kingdoms, he had never seen the King of Wei before.
The King of Wei blamed his residence.
A servant was reporting back to King Gui of Wei that
“Master, someone has just taken the merchant people who had been captured before to the merchant’s contact point.”
“But he lost them on the way.”
The servant quickly set the matter straight.
After listening, the king of Wei, Blame, waved his hand and said
“Understood, remove the manpower from that place, reinforce the defense in the manor, and call Wei Bao here.”
“Yes, master.”
The servant led the order and left.
The king of Wei, Blame, frowned slightly at once, and he had guessed who the other party was.
After all, when the other party had rescued Shang Yan’er, he had not hidden it.
That was why he had had the guards in the manor strengthened.
Although he hadn’t captured Shang Yan’er by force last time, he belonged to the Xiang Clan’s lineage.
It was still better to be careful.
Just then a burly young man walked in and
“Brother, you wanted to see me.”
Seeing the young man, King Wei Blame revealed a smile and said that
“Ah Bao, you will rest with me today.”
This man was, of course, his brother Wei Bao.
Wei Bao said, with a glare in his eyes
“Big brother, I see that you have told to strengthen the defence, is there an enemy coming?”
“This is Wei land, the uprising is imminent, who dares to oppose us!”
The king of Wei gave a bitter laugh and
“It’s the King of Zhao.”
Wei Bao frowned at once, too, and
“The King of Zhao who saved the man from the manor last time?”
The last time the Zhuang was better protected than it is now, after all, Xiang’s men were still very elite.
As a result, what happened was that someone else rescued the man with a sound move.
Even Xiang couldn’t do anything about it, and it was better for them to be honest.
“Well, that’s why it’s better for us to stay together today.”
Wei Bao didn’t disagree, except that the two of them had to say something, when they stayed together.
“Big brother, I heard that that King of Zhao is actually not very old, how come he is so powerful that even Xiang has to be afraid of him.”
Wei Bao asked with some curiosity.
The king of Wei, Kou Kou, thought for a moment and returned that
“Every man has his own talent, and the King of Zhao is indeed a natural talent.”
“Although you and I, brothers, are from the royal family, we cannot make it alone.”
Wei Bao hastened to comfort.
“Big brother, you are benevolent and righteous, and the legacy clans of the Wei land are all still very supportive of us.”
Hearing these words, Wei Wang Guiao, however, gave a bitter laugh and said
“Ah Bao, you are however still young.”
“Do you really think that these legacy clans are supporting us?”
Wei Bao froze for a moment and said that
“No?”
“Brother, we’ve only just returned to Wei land and we have so much money, mansion land, and quite a few men.”
“These are all supported by the legacy clans.”
“Moreover, they have all said that they are also willing to embrace you as the king of Wei afterwards and continue to provide money and manpower.”
King Blame of Wei shook his head slightly and said that
“It is not us that these people support, but they want to get back their own glory and wealth, humph, it is not as easy for them as before under the rule of the Great Qin.”
The previous nobles, in their own fiefs, were actually not much different from the emperor.
The power of life and death was all under their control.
But in the Great Qin, everything was based on Qin law.
They would only dare to do so in secret.
Wei Bao, however, became more and more puzzled by
“Brother, isn’t that how we used to get along with other nobles?”
“Besides, even the Zhou royal family, sitting on the world, still ruled the country by division.”
“Only the tyrannical Qin tyrant ruled tyrannically and brutally, that’s why it caused the world to be in turmoil.”
Looking at his brother, who was still slightly naive, King Kou of Wei could only say with a little sigh of relief.
“Ah Bao, in fact, the world today can only be called a world.”
Listening to Wei Wang Gui’s sentiments, Wei Bao however became more and more puzzled.
But at that moment, a voice suddenly came from outside the door and
“Well said!”
Hearing these words, the two of them, Wei Wang Gui and Wei Bao, almost paled in unison.
How could they not have imagined that while they were speaking, there was actually someone outside the door!
“Come…”
Before Wei Bao could finish speaking, a handsome young figure, who had already walked in, said indifferently that
“There is no need to shout, this courtyard has been cleared out.”
“Everyone else is outside, of course, they might hear you if you make a louder noise.”
“But I can guarantee that the next time you make a sound, your big brother’s head will fall to the ground.”
Wei Bao’s face was cloudy as he looked at the visitor, the other party could come here so silently, he really didn’t dare to make a move.
Wei Wang Gui, however, his eyes lit up slightly and he said with a smile that
“The King of Zhao?”
The visitor smiled back and
“King Gui of Wei, I am sorry to meet you for the first time.”
Zhao Lang looked at the King of Wei Kui in front of him and was still a little surprised.
He had originally thought of coming to spy on information, but he had never expected to hear the other party’s remarks, and actually had such knowledge about the unification of the Great Qin.
This was not often seen among the royal families of the six kingdoms.
As for direct assassination, Zhao Lang had no such intention.
With the death of the King of Wei’s blame, Xiang Liang could still support others as long as he wished.
After all, King Kou of Wei was the King of Wei, but the King of Wei was not necessarily just King Kou of Wei.
It would be best if there could be some collusion with the other side.
“No harm, my king has actually wanted to meet with the king of Zhao for a long time, and if you don’t mind, I would also like to invite the king of Zhao to share a drink.”
Although his life and death were already under the control of the other party, King Kou of Wei still said with extreme ease.
