January 16, 259 B.C., Wild King City.

Wei Wuji, the prince of Wei, was standing at the head of Yewang City, staring at the road under his feet.

At Wei Wuji's feet, 100,000 Wei troops were slowly leaving the city, heading towards the Wei mainland in the east.

Wei Wuji had already taken off his armor from the battle and put on his usual clothes.

Of course, for Wei Wuji, this so-called "regular clothes" are also exquisite silk robes that ordinary people can't even afford to wear, and at the same time, there is also a fox fur coat on the outside, coupled with Wei Wuji's own handsome face, it looks like a mature and suave temperament, which is heartbreaking.

It must be said that even if this Xinlingjun's background is not noble enough, then he should be able to live well with this face alone...

But no matter how high the appearance is, when a person can't be happy, then the appearance will be more or less discounted.

Wei Wuji was in a very bad mood now, even though he had just led the Wei army to win a big victory that Wei had not seen for a long time, and he had defeated a number one power like Qin.

A sound of footsteps sounded from behind Wei Wuji, and then slowly approached.

It was Zhong Cheng who came.

The young Wei general was wearing a neat set of armor, and his waist was straight when he walked, and the friction of the armor leaves could be heard clearly even from dozens of meters away.

Zhong Cheng came to Wei Wuji's side and saluted Wei Wuji: "General!"

Wei Wuji turned his head and glanced at Zhong Cheng, a look of appreciation on his face.

For the son of the old man, Wei Wuji's heart was still quite satisfied.

In the many battles in these days, Zhong Cheng proved with practical actions and victories that he does have the potential to become a general.

Wei Wuji opened his mouth and asked, "How is the march of the army?"

Zhong Chengdao: "The last one is going out of the city, and it will only take half an hour at most."

Wei Wuji nodded, and said to Zhong Cheng: "Good, in this case, you will lead the troops back to Daliang."

As he spoke, Wei Wuji took out the talisman symbolizing the military power of the Wei State from his hand and put it in Zhong Cheng's hand.

Zhong Cheng was taken aback: "What does this mean, general?" Could it be that the general didn't lead the army to turn the girder? ”

Wei Wuji smiled, and said in a somewhat helpless tone: "I stole the talisman first, and killed Jin and contempt later, what I did was not the way of a courtier, so how could I see the king?"

Zhong Cheng obviously didn't expect such a situation at all, so he subconsciously excused himself: "How can the last general be responsible?" If you rashly lead the troops, you are afraid that you will be blamed by the generals, but it is not beautiful. ”

Wei Wuji patted Zhong Cheng on the shoulder and said, "You have the tiger talisman in your hand, why are you afraid of others?" And Jin and the like, I have already punished them, but you will lead the army to go. ”

Zhong Cheng obviously looked a little unwilling, and said: "The general first broke the Qin army on this expedition, and then returned to the land of Tao County, and he is the body of the son, and he is a brother to the king. Even if there is a slight misunderstanding, the king must be able to understand. ”

"Understand?" When Wei Wuji heard this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly.

If Wei Wangyu could really forgive Wei Wuji, then why would Wei Wuji do such a thing as stealing talismans and killing Jin Contempt?

But just do it, Wei Wuji doesn't regret it.

Because from the very beginning, Wei Wuji was not for himself, but for the Wei State!

As long as Wei can continue to survive, or even continue to become strong, Wei Wuji is willing to do anything, even if he offends his own brother Wei Wangyu.

Judging from the results, Wei Wuji's actions this time have indeed achieved great results.

With the defeat of the Qin army on the battlefield of Changping, the state of Zhao, which had annexed almost the entire Shangdang county, was now a veritable hegemon-level state.

In Wei Wuji's mind, at least in the next ten years, Qin and Zhao's struggle for hegemony should be the main theme of the entire land of China.

Under such circumstances, the Wei State, which was originally overwhelmed by the Qin State, had diplomatic space and opportunities to meet the source.

As long as the operation is right, Wei actually has a great chance of rising again.

It's just that those things don't seem to have anything to do with Wei Wuji.

Wei Wuji let out a long breath, looked at Zhong Cheng with a look of hope in front of him, and slowly spoke: "I really can't go back to Wei Guoyi. ”

Zhong Cheng's face showed an extremely disappointed look.

For the young Zhong Cheng, he really worships this Xinling Jun from the bottom of his heart.

And it's not just worship, Zhong Cheng also knows very well in his heart that his father is nominally Wei Wuji's political enemy, but in fact he is Wei Wuji's secret ally.

It is precisely because of the existence of this relationship that Zhong Cheng betrayed Jin Cong at a critical moment and achieved Wei Wuji's action to seize power.

Not only that, in these days, Zhong Cheng has been by Wei Wuji's side, and he has also been taught by Wei Wuji's words and deeds.

For Zhong Cheng now, Wei Wuji is equivalent to his teacher, friend, and boss.

After personally feeling Wei Wuji's personality charm and ability to govern the army, Zhong Cheng deeply felt that Wei could not live without Xinlingjun.

So Zhong Cheng planned to persuade Wei Wuji to return to China, but unfortunately Wei Wuji had already made up his mind, and Zhong Cheng's persuasion was doomed to be in vain.

Zhong Cheng looked at Wei Wuji and asked, "Since the general doesn't want to return to Daliang, where do you want to go?" ”

Wei Wuji did not hesitate, and quickly gave the answer: "My family is all in Handan, I should go to Handan." ”

"Handan?" Zhong Cheng looked at Wei Wuji in surprise and said, "Doesn't the general want to serve Zhao Wangdan?" However, Zhao Wangdan is young and promising, and he is indeed a gentleman worthy of service. ”

Don't be surprised why Zhong Cheng would be so tolerant of Wei Wuji's service to Zhao Guo, in the hearts of scholars in this era, the country is a company, and a son like Wei Wuji goes to serve Zhao Guo, in fact, it is just the younger brother of a company boss who goes to work in another company.

Like Meng Weijun Tianwen, one of the four gentlemen, as the prince of Qi, he also served as a minister in Qin and Wei, so although this kind of thing is not common, it is still acceptable.

"Serve Zhao Wangdan?" Wei Wuji couldn't help but laugh dumbly when he heard this, and after a long while, he shook his head and said, "My heart is for Wei, how can I serve the monarch of another country?" I am only going to reunite with my family, and as for the future, it is not known at this time. ”

Zhong Cheng looked at Wei Wuji, who had a calm but extremely resolute face, and knew that it was impossible for him to persuade this Xinling Jun anymore, so he didn't say anything more, and gave a military salute to Wei Wuji: "General, take care!" ”

After saying this, Zhong Cheng turned around and walked away without looking back.

Watching Zhong Cheng's back gradually disappear from sight, Wei Wuji also sighed softly.

"If you have a home, you can't go back, if you have a country, you can't go back, what can I do?"

Wei Wuji turned his head and said to a man beside him who had been waiting for a long time, "Let's go too." ”

A quarter of an hour later, a carriage, escorted by dozens of knights, followed the winding road all the way north, gradually submerging into the Taihang Mountains, which were completely covered in white.
