Xianyang.

It's been several days since the last meeting. But Lü Buwei did not immediately send out the information in his hand.

It's winter after all.

Winter is a magical season, and when the snow falls, the time of the whole world seems to suddenly become stagnant and frozen.

Only when everything recovers, will the whole land seem to suddenly recover, and everyone will return to normal at this time.

For the sake of secrecy, Lü Buwei felt that he should wait until spring to find a way to send this secret letter.

To be honest, Lü Buwei is actually not very worried about Zhao State, after all, the current Zhao State is the most powerful country in the world, and there is an undercover agent like Lü Buwei in the Qin State, it is actually a very difficult thing to lose to the Qin State.

Lü Buwei is actually concerned about another matter, that is, how to find a way to bring down Qian Chen.

For this matter, Lü Buwei has been bothering for a long time, he actually has a lot of plans, but everything doesn't feel too safe.

This made Lu Buwei's mentality a little anxious.

Zhao is getting stronger day by day, which means that Lü Buwei must speed up the progress of his plan, otherwise, if Zhao can bulldoze Qin by virtue of national strength alone, what is Lü Buwei's role?

Although with the relationship between Lü Buwei and the current crown prince, Lü Buwei knew that the future wealth of himself and the Lü family should be guaranteed, but this guarantee could not guarantee that Lü Buwei could become the prime minister of Zhao State!

If he can't become the prime minister of Zhao State, then what is the point of Lü Buwei's long-term fear of walking on thin ice?

In the final analysis, Lü Buwei is a very confident and arrogant person, and people like this don't actually want to receive any charity from others, but rather want to earn a future through their own hard work!

On this day, Lü Buwei came to the study after dinner.

Whenever it was quiet late at night, Lu Buwei sat alone in the study, and the thoughts of his wife and children began to spread out from the deepest part of his heart bit by bit.

Speaking of which, Lü Buwei has actually not seen his wife for several years, and now the "wives" and "children" around Lü Buwei are actually pretended to be the spies of Zhao Guo Hu Yiwei, fortunately, Lü Buwei has been low-key before, and his wife and children rarely walk around in Xianyang, and no one has ever seen through it in the past few years.

Lü Buwei sat quietly for a while, and began to pick up his pen and began to write letters to his eldest son who was far away in Handan.

"My son, my father has been doing well in your studies recently, and although my father can't always supervise at home, he is also very pleased. Thou shalt not slack off......

A rather ordinary-looking family letter, with no name on it, and no sentence reminiscent of the identity of the letter writer.

Lü Buwei finished writing the letter quickly, then took an envelope and painted it with fire paint.

Just when Lu Buwei was about to call the housekeeper and ask him to find a post station to deliver the letter, the housekeeper's voice suddenly sounded in advance: "The head of the house, someone asks to see you." ”

Lu Buwei was stunned when he heard this, how could anyone still ask to see him in the middle of this midwinter night?

And this housekeeper has also been with Lu Buwei for decades, and he is an old man by Lu Buwei's side, if it weren't for the special identity of the visitor, then he would definitely not come to bother Lu Buwei at this time.

Lü Buwei opened his mouth and asked, "Who is coming?" ”

The butler replied, "I don't know, but the one who came has a token that the master of the house has seen it." ”

"Tokens?" Lu Buwei thought for a moment and said, "Take it in and take a look." ”

A moment later, a small black sign appeared in front of Lu Buwei, this black sign was quite quaint in shape, with the word "Qin" engraved on the front and the word "Hou" engraved on the back.

Lu Buwei played with this sign thoughtfully, and suddenly thought of something, and his whole body shook violently.

"Is it ......?"

As soon as he thought of this, Lu Buwei Ke couldn't calm down at all, and stood up directly and walked towards the door.

But as soon as he reached the door, Lu Buwei stopped, turned around and handed the sign to the housekeeper, and advised: "You go to invite guests in, remember, the attitude must be respectful!" ”

The housekeeper left, and Lu Buwei sat back in his seat, his expression uncertain.

"Wait, is it waiting? But why did he come to see me at this time? ”

All kinds of thoughts came to Lu Buwei's mind, which made Lu Buwei's mood go up and down.

You must know that Lü Buwei himself is a high-level spy of the Zhao State, but now he is the spy leader of the Qin State! This is simply a thief seeing the police, and he is naturally panicking.

After a while, a sound of footsteps slowly approached, and then the butler's words sounded again outside the study door: "Master, the distinguished guest is here." ”

Lu Buwei took a deep breath, calmed down, and said in the voice that was as calm as possible: "Please come in." ”

The door was pushed open, and a figure walked in with a cold gust of wind.

To Lü Buwei's slight surprise, the person in front of him was wearing a hood on his head, and he couldn't see his face clearly at all.

"Please be seated." Lü Buwei stretched out his hand and pointed to the guest seat in front of him.

The door was shut, and the visitor slowly sat down in the guest seat.

Seeing that the other party didn't seem to have the intention of speaking, Lu Buwei took the initiative to speak: "I don't know why the distinguished guest came?" ”

A chuckle came from under the hood, followed by a hoarse-sounding voice: "Presumably the Captain already knows my identity?" ”

Lu Buwei stared at the person in front of him, and said slowly: "It's just a brand that I have never heard of, I'm afraid it won't be able to prove anything." ”

Another chuckle came out, and another token was thrown in front of Lü Buwei.

Lu Buwei picked up the token, then his face changed slightly, and he suddenly took out a token from his arms and put it together with the visitor token in his hand.

Whether it's the shape, texture, or even feel, the two tokens are the same.

You must know that this token in Lü Buwei's hand is a token specially given by the prince to allow Lü Buwei to enter and leave Xianyang Palace City freely.

Such a token, even Yangquan Jun Mi Chen and Gang Cheng Jun Cai Ze don't have it!

Lu Buwei finally confirmed the identity of the other party at this time, so he coughed heavily and knocked three times on the table slowly but firmly.

For some reason, just after this gesture that seemed to be some kind of code, the original tense and even murderous atmosphere in the room suddenly dissipated.

Lu Buwei slowly pushed the token to the other party, and said in a deep voice: "I don't know how to address your guests?" ”

Human: "My name, the guard only needs to call it directly." ”

Although he was already mentally prepared, when Lu Buwei heard this, his whole heart couldn't help but tremble.

Sure enough, it's this guy......

Hou suddenly spoke: "Wei Wei seems to be a little nervous. ”

Lu Buwei shook his head and said, "I think, except for the crown prince, there should be no one who is not nervous. ”

Hou let out a hoarse laugh: "Actually...... The prince is the most nervous person! ”

This sentence made Lu Buwei pause again, it sounds like this Hou is a little unfriendly with the prince? Is it possible to find a way to take advantage of it......

Just when Lu Buwei was still thinking, Hou had already spoken again: "I came here today to ask Wei Wei to do me a favor, if Wei Wei is willing, I can also do Wei Wei a favor." ”

Lu Buwei didn't answer immediately, but was silent for a while, sorted out his thoughts before saying, "Since you can wait to come to the door late at night, presumably this favor should not be so easy to help?" But...... I'd like to hear about it. ”

Hou nodded slowly and said, "This favor is actually very simple, that is, Wu Anjun must die!" ”

When he said this, Hou's tone was as cold as the cold wind and snow outside the door.

Lu Buwei's body was shocked, and he couldn't help but lose his voice: "What? ”

When Hou asked for help, Lu Buwei had 10,000 guesses in his mind, but he never expected that this Hou would make this request!

Kill Bai Qi?!

After a long time, Lu Buwei came back from the shock and said, "Why? ”

"There's no why." Hou still said in that unhurried tone: "Bai Qi must die, it's as simple as that." ”

Lu Buwei smiled bitterly and said, "Wu Anjun is now a lieutenant, ranking among the three dukes. I'm just a captain, a subordinate of Jiuqing. It is a well-known thing that the three princes are more valuable than Jiuqing, and I don't know why I think I can kill Wu Anjun? ”

This is actually a kind of shirk.

Although Lü Buwei did receive an order from Handan to kill Bai Qi, as Lü Buwei got closer to the core leadership of the Qin State, he was more and more able to feel how terrible Bai Qi's influence in the Qin State was.

Especially now that Qin Wangji and Qin Wangzhu have died successively, Bai Qi's influence in the Qin army has almost returned to the state it was back then, and even surpassed.

If you want to start against such a white, you will definitely be fiercely counterattacked by the Qin military!

In this country founded on the military merit system, to oppose the military is simply to find guilt for yourself, and it is even likely to be death.

Hou let out a sneer and said, "What, is Wei Wei afraid?" ”

Lu Buwei nodded calmly and said, "Not bad." Although I have the trust of the prince, I am a foreign minister after all. Wu Anjun has made contributions to the Great Qin for many years and won the hearts of the Great Qin army and the people. If I help you kill Wu Anjun, then the future Great Qin is afraid that there will be no place for me to stand on it. ”

Hou was silent for a while, and suddenly said, "What if I tell Wei Wei that as long as Wei Wei can help me kill Wu Anjun, I can help Wei Wei get rid of Mi Chen?" ”

Lu Buwei's eyes widened again, and two fine lights suddenly burst out of his eyes: "Is this true?" ”

Hou nodded slowly and said, "This is naturally true." ”

Lü Buwei's heart fluctuated, you must know that the most important reason why he refused to agree before was that he was afraid that after getting rid of Bai Qi, the Michen United Army would launch a counterattack against him, which was a force that Lü Buwei could not resist.

But if he can get rid of Mi Chen, then relying on the support of the prince, Lu Buwei is actually not so afraid of getting into trouble with the military, anyway, he is not a person who cannot install himself in the military in the future.

After all, this guy in front of him is Hou, as the person in charge of the largest intelligence agency in the Qin State, with his help, it should be a very simple matter to bring down Mi Chen.

Lu Buwei pondered for a long time, and finally raised his head, stared at the Hou in front of him and said, "Since this is the case, then this matter ...... What does it matter if I do it! ”

That night, the lights were lit up in Lü Buwei's study all night.
