Volume 1 The First Involvement in the Warring States Chapter 071 Revisiting the Wei Palace

He couldn't help but think of the red-maned horse that Guiguzi gave him, since he came to Xinlingjun's mansion, the horse has been guarded by the horse officials in the mansion, Lu Yu has never ridden it again, and it is his carriage that goes out to ride, and he has not had a chance to ride it. However, it may be possible that when escorting Wei Mingji to Handan the day after tomorrow, you can find an excuse to ask him back. It's just a horse, and I believe that Xinlingjun won't embarrass him.

Xinlingjun has his own carriage, although it is not as luxurious as the carriage that Lu Yu rides, but it is also magnificent.

However, Simon Hou had no carriage to ride, because he had to ride in front of him.

In this way, he comfortably came to the palace of Wei for the second time.

After the report, Xinling Jun was in front, and Lu Yu and Ximen waited behind him, and entered the palace together to meet the King of Wei.

King Wei sat on the throne on the high platform, His Royal Highness also had Wei Mingji, Long Yangjun, and a teenage boy, Lu Yu remembered that he had seen it on the night of the sword competition, and guessed that he should be the crown prince, but Xinlingjun didn't mention it, and he didn't see the boy say half a sentence during the whole process, so I don't know if his guess is correct.

When she was dozens of steps away, Wei Mingji immediately sent Qiu Bo to Lu Yu, for fear of missing every scene. However, this distance can be not only towards him, but also like facing the "old lover" Ximen Hou, or it can be to send greetings to Xinlingjun, killing three birds with one stone, it is indeed clever.

From the perspective of the people present, King Wei attached great importance to the princess's trip to Handan, and this trip should not be as simple as visiting Lady Pingyuan.

It stands to reason that Long Yangjun should also know the inside story about this matter, so he is also in this hall at this moment. Lu Yu wondered why he had never heard him mention it? Or maybe Zhang Wu, Hou Rong and others also knew the inside story, why didn't they mention it to Lu Yu, who was about to escort the princess?

The three of them bowed in unison.

King Wei stood up, paced down from the high platform, and said to Xinling Jun: "Is it true that the widow heard that Mr. Zhu was assassinated a few days ago?" ”

Only then did Lu Yu realize that King Wei and Xinling Jun actually looked a little similar. Because of the distance and because it was night, I didn't feel this way. But it's not surprising that the two were originally half-brothers, and it was absolutely normal and reasonable for them to look alike.

Assuming that this King of Wei is a fake, then his face must also be wearing the kind of mask that Ling Fan wears, or a double-body that looks like a god and has undergone strict training, otherwise, with the ambiguous relationship between Long Yangjun and him, how could it be that it is only at the stage of suspicion until now.

I only heard that Ling Jun said gloomily: "King Yu: There are no clues yet. ”

King Wei's face turned dark, and he asked again, "Have you caught the assassin?" ”

Xinlingjun looked at Long Yangjun out of the corner of his eyes, and said meaningfully: "The younger brother has ordered someone to investigate it comprehensively, and he will definitely give Zhu Lao justice." ”

Long Yangjun sighed: "It's really a pity, if Xinlingjun can use Benjun's place, please just ask, Benjun will definitely do his best to help and seek justice for Mr. Zhu." ”

Xin Lingjun's face twitched, but he couldn't attack in front of King Wei, and said coldly: "Thank you Long Yangjun for your kindness, you don't need to bother Your Excellency to arrest just an assassin." ”

King Wei broke the embarrassment with a dry laugh, and said: "Longyang Jun is also a good thing, but Xinling Jun is mostly capable, naturally as he said, just an assassin, and it is just around the corner to be arrested." Turning around and sitting down on the throne, Zhengse said: "Lu Yu obeys orders!" ”

Lu Yu stepped forward and saluted, and replied in a loud voice: "Minister Lu Yu is here." ”

King Wei said: "The trip to Handan will start at one moment tomorrow, and there is no room for error, so the widow ordered you to live in Fuzhao Pavilion temporarily from this moment on, and you must not leave the palace." ”

Lu Yu shouted to obey.

King Wei said again: "This time the widow ordered you to escort the princess for Zuo Zhonglang, in addition to Xinlingjun's strong recommendation, Longyangjun is the first time to maintain a high degree of political views with Xinlingjun, and the widow is very happy!" Lu Yu, you have to thank the two of them, after returning to China, in addition to honoring the golden words and rewarding you, the widow will definitely be sealed again, and you can behave well for the widow. ”

Lu Yu secretly thought that Long Yangjun also had a part in this matter, and it should have been before going to the secret path at that time, but Long Yangjun already knew his identity at that time, and let him Lu Yu take on this beautiful errand, just so that he could secretly cover Zhang Wu and the others to leave the Wei State, it seems that this is an errand that has already been "predetermined". At that moment, he kowtowed and thanked him, and said: "The minister will never live up to the love of the king and the two kings, and he will do his best and die." ”

I only heard the king of Wei say again: "You stand down." Then he ordered someone to lead Lu Yu to Fuzhao Pavilion.

Lu Yu was stunned, and said in his heart that he would order him to enter the palace before dawn, just to say such a few words to him, the thoughts of these ancients are sometimes really not easy to guess. But the king's command is hard to disobey, and without your business there is no your business, and it is not a good thing to talk too much. But! Why did the King of Wei send him to retreat, but Ximen Hou was not opened?

With a stomach full of questions, Lu Yu, under the leadership of the eunuchs, bypassed the palaces like a labyrinth, and passed through a man-made pond before arriving at Fuzhao Pavilion.

Lu Yu secretly thought that even if he allowed himself to run around here, he might not be able to leave the palace.

Along the way, there are more than ten palaces of all sizes; Each palace is carved and painted, resplendent with gold, showing the luxury of ancient kings. The eaves of the roof of the palace are also very particular, and the corners of the eaves and the ridge of the kiss, the sly, the flying phoenix and other sacred beasts, symbolizing the supreme royal power.

Such a palace, even if you stay for ten days, there are road signs everywhere in the palace, you may not be able to swim it all, and Lu Yu, who has only seen the tip of the iceberg, will of course not be able to leave in a moment and a half. Besides, it is heavily guarded, and it is estimated that he has not been able to cross the three gates, and has been captured or killed by the Praetorian Guards.

King Wei must have something to discuss with Xinlingjun and them, but Lu Yu could not participate, it is estimated that it was Wei Mingji's secret plan after arriving in Handan. What kind of plan would that be?

If that was an important secret, why not send Ximen to escort Wei Mingji, but let him be a newcomer to take on this task?

Moreover, what made his back chill was that from the first time he saw Xinling Jun, he had already bluntly said that he would say good things for him in front of King Wei and let him go to Handan with the princess's team!

At that time, Lu Yu had not yet "really" become his protΓ©gΓ©, and it stands to reason that Ximen Hou had followed Xinlingjun for many years, so he should have recommended him instead of Lu Yu, although Longyangjun must have obstructed it.

Before, he always thought it was because of his identity, but now that he thinks about it, it's not like that.

On the surface, it seems that it is absolutely reasonable for him, a native of Yunmeng Mountain and an apprentice of Xuanwei Zhenjun, to persuade Zhao to participate in the joint attack on Qin.

But if Wei Mingji was not just a niece visiting her aunt, not just persuading King Zhao, then Lu Yu could not think of any other reason except for one reason.

It is very likely that Lu Yu will be a substitute for the dead ghost.

Qin used troops against Zhao and forced Zhao to return the proton, that is, the future Qin Shi Huang Yingzheng.

In their plan, the main purpose was to unite the forces of the five vassal states to attack Qin together, and more than once it was mentioned that they would persuade the king of Zhao not to hand over the protons, including Zhang Wu, the Yunmengshan faction, in this view, they were people in the same boat.

Although Zhang Wu will not trap Lu Yu in injustice, it is difficult for others to guarantee that they will not.

Although Long Yangjun and Xinlingjun fought in private, everything became unpredictable under the premise of national affairs.

The more Lu Yu thought about it, the more chilling he became, this possibility was more convincing than he had guessed before, because he still regarded himself as the hero of this era at the beginning, enjoying all kinds of protagonist halos, it seems that those are simply justifying themselves and holding themselves too high.

If the proton can be killed and blamed on Lu Yu, Zhao Guo will no longer have to keep this seemingly bargaining chip, but in fact, it is more like a hot potato.

At that time, the Qin State will point the finger at him, force the Zhao State to hand over people, and then turn its anger on the Zhao and Wei Kingdoms. But by then, the coalition forces might have been formed, and the Qin state would have to face an attack by the forces of the five nations, and there was no time to attack any one of them alone. And they are bound to use the strongest soldiers to completely eliminate the threat of the Qin State in order to prevent future troubles.

If Long Yangjun hadn't told him the true purpose of his trip to Handan until he set off, or had not passed it on to him through Zhang Wuzhi's mouth, then Lu Yu could be sure that this guess was correct.

The rest were Zhang Wu, Ling Fan and others who were walking with them.

After all, if you really want to kill Yingzheng, in addition to finding a reliable person, you must also be a master.

If Zhao Guo wants to stay out of the matter, the person who does it must not be Zhao Guo's people.

Maybe it's not necessarily Lu Yu who is behind the black pot, or maybe it's Zhang Wu, who is strong in martial arts, can achieve the same effect, and Lu Yu still can't get out of the relationship.

Moreover, for Zhang Wu and others, who were keen on this merger, if they could dedicate themselves to the elimination of the Qin State, it might be an "infinitely glorious" thing.

Long Yangjun didn't tell him, probably thinking that he was a member of the Yunmeng Mountain Sect like Zhang Wu, and he was also ready to make sacrifices.

At present, he can only make plans after arriving in Handan, although this matter is very likely to happen, but after all, it is just Lu Yu's speculation. As long as you ask Zhang Wu for verification at that time, you will know what is going on.

Just as he was thinking about it, suddenly the footsteps outside the door approached, Lu Yu stood up, and after listening carefully, he really came to Fuzhao Pavilion. was hesitating to go to the door to see, but saw two figures approaching, the person had already arrived, it turned out to be Xinlingjun and Ximen Hou.

Before he came in, Ximen Hou had already said with a smiling face: "Congratulations Brother Lu, no, it's General Lu." ”

After Lu Yu saluted Xinlingjun, he smiled bitterly at Ximen Hou: "Brother Ximen, don't call the younger brother a general, the younger brother is really not used to being called this class." ”
