Xiangguo Mansion, Lü Buwei is still playing against Wei Yi, always with a calm smile on his face.

Wei Yi picked up a sunspot, but he never put it down, but raised his head to look at Lu Buwei, and said in a deep voice: "Xianyang is full of fire, the chaotic army is rushing to kill everywhere, and Huan Qi has led elite soldiers to the city, why is Xiangguo so calm?" ”

Lu Buwei said softly: "The praying mantis catches cicadas, and I don't know that there are yellow finches behind it." As a chess player, no matter how shrewd the chess pieces are, they will inevitably be at the mercy of the fate. ”

Wei Yi's eyes moved slightly, and he muttered to himself with an inexplicable look on his face: "Yellow Sparrow?" ”

"Report!"

The two were playing against each other, and suddenly a doorman came in a hurry, his face full of horror: "Xiangguo, the big thing is not good, Huan Qi has already led his troops into the city, and he and Fan Yu should join forces to capture and kill the commander of the city guards, and now he has led his troops towards Xiangguo's mansion!" ”

"Whoa!"

Suddenly hearing this bad news, Lu Buwei, who was originally holding Zhizhu, shook his right hand and accidentally swept off the flag box containing the chess pieces, and the chess pieces suddenly fell to the ground with a clatter, rolling everywhere.

Afterwards, Lu Buwei stood up and shouted: "With Meng Tian leading heavy troops to guard the city gate, how can Huan Tian be allowed to enter Xianyang?" ”

Lü Buwei's strategy of indulging Fan Yuzhi and others to lure the snake out of the cave was based on the premise that Huan Qi and his soldiers and horses could not enter the city, otherwise even if there was an army of city guards in hand, all the plans would become a flash in the pan.

Lü Buwei believed in Meng Tian's ability to command the army, and also believed in the loyalty of the commander of the Xianyang City Guards, as long as the former kept Huan Qi out of the city, Fan Yuzhi would soon be suppressed by the City Guards once he made a move.

Without the internal response of Fan Yuzhi, and then the king's order issued by the Qin Wangzheng, Huan Qi will not be afraid.

At that time, Lü Buwei could take the opportunity to purge Xianyang again, concentrate the military and political power of the Qin State in his hands, and then resist the coalition forces with the strength of the whole country.

He never imagined that Huan Qi would attack Xianyang so quickly, and even the commander of the city guard army, which he relied on the most, was killed by the rebels, how could this not surprise Lu Buwei?

When the doorman who came to report the news heard this, he immediately said: "Meng Tian surrendered to the enemy and took the initiative to open the city gate, so that Huan Qi can easily enter the city!" ”

"It's impossible!"

Lu Buwei was struck by lightning, and then roared fiercely with a hideous face.

Once upon a time, Meng Tian's grandfather Meng Wei commanded the soldiers and horses of the Qin State, and the Qin Prime Minister Lü Buwei was in charge of the Qin State regime.

If it weren't for the fact that the two of them controlled the military and political power of the entire Qin State with one article and one force, how could the Qin clan and the local forces be subservient to outsiders?

Lü Buwei knew exactly this, so even if Meng Fu was repeatedly defeated in the face of Zhao Jia, he still spared no effort to recommend Meng Fu.

Even after the death of Meng Fu and Meng Wu's father and son, Lü Buwei was under great pressure and tried his best to pave the way for Meng Tian and make him return to Xianyang to take up important positions.

Yu Gong, the interests of Meng and Lü Buwei are closely related, and Meng Fu's betrayal of Lü Buwei and his defection to the local forces of Qin will not do any good at all, but may harm himself, and it is impossible to do this with Meng Tian's wisdom.

Yu Private, after the death of Meng Fu and Meng Wu's father and son, Meng's family suffered heavy losses, and even almost collapsed, Lü Buwei did his best to keep some of Meng's rights, and even let Meng Tian go straight up to Xianyang, and he had great knowledge of it.

With Lu Buwei's understanding of Meng Tian's character, the other party is definitely not the kind of person who will take revenge.

It was precisely because of this that Lü Buwei would rest assured that Fang Mengtian would guard the city gate and prevent Huan Qi and his soldiers and horses from entering Xianyang.

But now, when he suddenly heard the news from his subordinates that Meng Tian had defected to the enemy and took the initiative to let Huan Qi enter the city, how could Lu Buwei not be surprised?

The doorman half-knelt on the ground and said in a conclusive manner: "This matter is reported by the henchmen of the deputy general of Xiangguo's city gate desperately breaking through the siege, and there will definitely be no fake, even the deputy general sent by Xiangguo to assist Meng Tian to guard the city gate was killed by Meng Tian's sudden outburst!" ”

When Lü Buwei heard this, although he still didn't believe that Meng Tian would betray him, he was already a little shaken.

Just because there is no loophole in what the doorman said.

Although Lü Buwei believed in Meng Tian, he still planted henchmen at the gate of the city to guard the door, and at a critical time, this lieutenant general was even able to seize Meng Tian's military power, if it wasn't for the henchmen who were placed and killed, Huan Qi would never have entered Xianyang.

The only person who can kill his henchman deputy general without making a big move is Meng Tian, the main general.

However, Lü Buwei couldn't understand what reason Meng Tian had to betray him.

"Now is not the time to discuss whether Meng Tian is rebelling, since Huan Qi has entered Xianyang, Xiangguo should quickly gather his disciples to enter the palace to protect the king."

At this moment, Wei Yi's voice came.

Lu Buwei woke up suddenly, and immediately said to Wei Yu: "The prime minister will summon the armor soldiers and doormen in the palace to enter the palace first, and I hope that Mr. will quickly go to gather the doormen with the seal letter of the prime minister!" ”

Lü Buwei claims to have 3,000 guests, many of whom are strong in martial arts, in order to lure the snake out of the hole before, Lü Buwei did not call the guests in advance, and can only assemble temporarily, if the command is appropriate, these people are not a big help.

Now that the situation in Xianyang is uncontrollable, only by leading the disciples to rely on Qin Wangzheng can there be a slight possibility of turning the tables.

I didn't think about it, but Wei Yi shook his head and said: "There are many capable people under the command of Xiangguo, even if you hold the tokens of Xiangguo, you may not be able to convince the public, and it is not easy to quickly gather them and form combat effectiveness." ”

"What's more, at this time, the chaos has risen, if these doormen can't see Xiangguo, it is difficult to guarantee that people will not panic and disperse in a hurry."

"For today's plan, only when Xiangguo appears can he stabilize people's hearts, quickly gather them, and form a combat force."

Lü Buwei only groaned slightly, and immediately came to his senses, but said with an embarrassed face: "Now that Fan Yuzhi is in rebellion, if the palace is not deployed as soon as possible, I am afraid that the king will have to worry about his life!" ”

Now, Qin Wangzheng, as the nominal ruler of Qin, has become Lü Buwei's last bargaining chip, and there is absolutely no room for loss.

Fan Yuzhi secretly colluded with Chang'an Jun Chengcheng to accuse the Qin Wangzheng of being unorthodox, and if they were the first to attack the palace, in order to seize the throne, they might kill the Qin King first.

At that time, Chang'anjun, as the only son of the previous king, could only be regarded as the king even though there were many people in the Qin State who were dissatisfied.

Things really have to come to that point, and Lü Buwei will have no place to turn over.

Wei Yi said: "The king is also familiar with Wei Yi, if Xiangguo can trust Wei Yi, you might as well send someone to escort you to the palace first, and inform the king of the matter of Xianyang, presumably with the wisdom of the king, you will be able to make a proper response and support Xiangguo to lead the troops to help!" ”

Lu Buwei was overjoyed, stepped forward and held Wei Yi's hands tightly, and said: "With the wisdom of the king and the talent of the gentleman, supplemented by the sharpness of the forbidden army of the palace, it is not enough to be afraid of the rebels in a short period of time!" ”

After finishing speaking, Lü Buwei immediately sent dozens of people to escort Wei Yi to the palace, but he took the rest of his men to gather the guests.
