The prime minister's mansion was also brightly lit with candles as usual.

Only the difference is.

Lu Buwei no longer stayed in his secret study.

Instead, he was in a magnificent hall with a group of staff officials.

The luxurious hall was full of guests.

These people either held important positions in the court or were close followers of Lu Buwei.

Everyone sat on both sides.

In the field, a group of beautiful dancers with lithe figures and beautiful faces waved their sleeves and danced.

Looking at this scene, they are preparing to hold a banquet.

Lu Buwei is not here at this time.

With his status, he would naturally not arrive early at the beginning of the banquet.

Instead, he was chatting with a few die-hard dog lickers in the backyard.

"Mr. Xiangguo, I have something unclear."

An official saw that he was in a good mood at the moment, raised his hand and asked.

Lu Buwei looked at him with shrewd eyes.

"You want to ask, why did the Prime Minister agree to the king's request today?"

These people still haven't figured out the reason why he agreed to be canonized as a state advisor.

The state advisor is close to the king.

When he agreed, it was obvious that he was giving himself eye drops.

The official licked his face and said flatteringly:" As expected, I can't hide it from the Prime Minister. This is exactly what I wanted to ask."

Lu Buwei seemed to like these words very much.

His face relaxed a little, and he said slowly:"The king has such trust in the imperial master. Isn't it a good thing for me?"

Several officials looked at each other.

Apparently they did not understand the meaning of his words.

Lu Buwei explained unhurriedly:"Those who enter the dynasty as officials are either for fame or profit."

"As far as I know, the national master probably wants to gain both fame and fortune.

Someone asked aloud:"But the imperial master has no real power in his hands. At most, he just wants to get closer to the king.""

"We have a name, but this is a benefit......"

Even if you enjoy a salary, how much can you enjoy?

To put it bluntly, although his Imperial Master has a high status, he is a real Qingshui master.

Even if you want to fish for oil and water, you won't be able to fish for it.

Someone else asked:"How did the Prime Minister see it?"

Lu Buwei laughed.

He stroked his beard and said enigmatically:"Of course you know the truth."

Others may not know Li Mo's true identity, but he, Lu Buwei, knows it clearly.

"Let me ask you, do you think that the national master's abilities are extraordinary and unfathomable?"

"The method revealed today is even more miraculous?"

The people next to them glanced at each other and nodded silently.

Who among the civil and military officials was not shocked by today's scene.

Not only did the words of the wordless heavenly book appear out of thin air, but half of them came true right after!

That spread its wings in the hall The soaring fire phoenix made them even more embarrassed.

How could a mortal have such ability?

Lu Buwei shook his head disdainfully

"This thing is just to fool you people."

"If you want to fool the truth, this Imperial Master is still a little young. Someone

's eyes lit up and he said in shock:"Master Xiangguo, you mean that there is something fishy in the magical magic performed by the Imperial Master today?"

Lu Buwei snorted coldly:"The true identity of the Imperial Master is clear to me.""

"There is a beautiful woman beside him. The woman is from Baiyue and has the natural ability to control fire."

"The fire phoenix today is just a deception."

Several people suddenly realized

"I see!"

Thankfully, the Imperial Master was still pretending to be cool!

It turned out that the woman who could control fire was helping him secretly.

Suddenly, someone frowned, still confused.

"What about that wordless heavenly book?"

"Yes, why did the writing appear out of thin air on the scroll?"

Lu Buwei squinted his eyes and glanced at the two of them.

He didn't answer.

Because......He didn't understand it either!

There is another explanation for the appearance of the Fire Phoenix.

But he couldn't figure out the reason why comments appeared out of thin air in this wordless heavenly book.

I can't answer it, and I don't want to admit it.

He had no choice but to change the subject and said:"The Prime Minister's country will agree today, partly because of those few words."

He pondered for a while.

"When the fire phoenix spreads its wings, it brings auspiciousness from heaven; when it is ordered by heaven, it brings longevity!"

"These sixteen words are well said."

"The truth cannot be refuted."

Li Mo said that he came with God's will.

Then these sixteen words represent God's will.

It predicts that Qin will prosper.

If he refutes it, doesn't it mean that he doesn't want Qin to prosper?

What if it were different? Forget it for others.

But as a Prime Minister, he cannot have such thoughts no matter what. If he approves this comment, it means he approves of this national master.

These simple sixteen words forced him to have no choice but to nod

"It turns out that Mr. Xiangguo agreed because of this reason~."

Lu Buwei waved his hand:"No."

"This is just one of the reasons"

"Another reason, the truth was just mentioned"

"This national advisor is deeply trusted by the king, but he has fame but no power."

"No rights, naturally no benefits"

"However, the truth can be given to him"

"In this Qin country, the truth can give him whatever he wants."

This is not Lu Buwei's boast.

Apart from his life, he does have this ability.

At this point, someone finally reacted

"Does Mr. Xiangguo want to bring this national master to our side?"

The exquisite light shining in Lu Buwei's eyes

"good!"

"Since this person can gain the trust of the king, if he bows to the truth, even if the king becomes the pro-government in the future, the truth will still be able to control the entire Qin State."

The people here are all his cronies.

So there is nothing to worry about saying this."

"Wonderful, wonderful, be prepared for a rainy day"

"Xiangguo really has a unique vision."

Lu Buwei looked proud.

The most correct investment he made in his life was the investment in the late king.

From a proton, he gradually became the king of Qin.

Now, he has to make another investment. Investment.

That’s this national master.

He doesn’t believe there are people who won’t be moved by profit!

"There is a discerning person who doesn’t know the truth. Our Queen Mother also has the same idea."

Zhao Ji summoned Li Mo today. Naturally, she couldn't hide it from him.

Although she was a step late, Lu Buwei didn't think it was anything.

What could a queen mother in the harem give him?

She couldn't even protect herself, and she wanted to support someone to come out. Can't you fight against yourself?

"What? Did the Queen Mother also summon him?"

"So what if he sides with the Queen Mother?"

It is not difficult to hear the worry in the words of several people.

Lu Buwei waved his hand and said confidently:"This Imperial Master is not a fool."

"If you side with the Queen Mother, you are going against me."

"Who in the world today doesn’t know who the real leader of the Qin State is?"

"I have no enmity with him, so why would he take such a big risk and go against the truth?"

As he spoke, he sighed with emotion:"This person always talks about interests."

"As long as the benefits are sufficient, even if he sides with the Queen Mother, the truth can bring him over."

After so many years of hard work, Lu Buwei has long seen through people's hearts.

Why do people like him follow him?

It's not because of the word power and the word profit!

If he falls, look at whether they will still be like this Follow the trend!

I am afraid they are all impatient to get rid of the relationship with themselves.

Seeing Lu Buwei swearing so confidently, several people were relieved.

Lu Buwei looked at the time.

He guessed that Li Si would be back soon.

He stood up, high-spirited. He said:"Let's go to the main hall and take a seat."

A few people looked at his steady back, and the respect in their hearts couldn't help but increase a little more.

As long as the national master comes to the banquet today, it means that he also has the same idea.

From now on, in the Qin State, it will really be him Lu Buwei The Qin Kingdom belongs to one person! As soon as

Lu Buwei appeared in the hall, he attracted compliments from everyone.

He pressed his hands and motioned for everyone to sit down.

"Everyone, today’s protagonist is our national master"

"So I would like to ask you to wait a moment. When the Imperial Master comes, we will start the banquet."

Anyone who can get in here is not a fool.

Lu Buwei's purpose has been vaguely reached.

Now that he said this, everyone was more sure.

As soon as Lu Buwei sat down, he saw a figure walking in quickly.

It was just in front of him. Li Si went to pick up Li Mo.

Li Si walked into the hall and looked at the people sitting on both sides with a strange expression.

Lu Buwei waved his hand to stop him from saluting.

He asked,"Where is the Imperial Master?""

Everyone's eyes also fell on Li Si.

With the addition of the Imperial Master, their team has become even stronger. Therefore, this banquet tonight can be said to be crucial.

Moreover, even if the Imperial Master cannot make a decision for a while, , and it is impossible to offend the Prime Minister's face.

Doesn't this make it clear that he is against the Prime Minister?

So, he will definitely come!

Li Si pursed his lips heavily and glanced at everyone again.

Lu Buwei frowned.

This Li Si is not A dawdling person.

Why did he hesitate to answer a question now?

Suddenly, he had a bad premonition.

Li Si raised his hand and bent down to salute. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

Cautiously said:"National Master, he......he......Refuse to go to the banquet."

The hall suddenly fell into deathly silence.

Refuse to attend the banquet?

No, how could he refuse?

How could he refuse?

How dare he refuse?

No matter whether he chooses to join Lu Buwei's camp or not, You shouldn't refuse directly.

The most sensible thing to do is to attend this banquet and give an ambiguous answer.

Everyone is smart, so they will understand it immediately.

Although this will make the Prime Minister unhappy, at least it will save his life. He has lost his face. He will not break his face in the future.

But he has just come to Qin and has just been appointed as the national preceptor. How can he have the courage to not even give him the face of the prime minister?

Lu Buwei's old face immediately became gloomy.

Just now he had said that this The banquet was held for the Imperial Master.

Now that the banquet was held, no one came?

How did he end it?

"This Imperial Master is really arrogant!"

"If you become a national teacher at a young age, will your achievements be inflated?"

"Isn't this reasonable? Doesn't he know that it is an honor for him to be invited by the Prime Minister?"

"Are you really treating yourself like a dish?"

Lu Buwei didn't speak, but a series of curses sounded from below.

Lu Buwei's face became more and more ugly.

He snorted coldly and asked in a deep voice:"What did he tell you?"

If he still knows how to give a compliment, he should find an excuse to decline.

He is not feeling well, is not acclimated to the climate, and occasionally feels cold.

There are too many excuses.

Li Si did not dare to hide it under Lu Buwei's glare.

"The National Preceptor said......Can't tell"

"When the subordinate asked him why, he said......He said there was no reason, he just didn’t want to come."

The crowd was suddenly in an uproar.

This Imperial Master is so majestic!

The Prime Minister has invited you, but he won't come even if he says not to come?

Lu Buwei squeezed the armrest of the seat tightly, and the veins on the back of his hand burst out.

For decades, This was the first time someone dared to deny him face like this.

He gritted his teeth and asked,"What else did he say?""

Li Si wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Li Mo did say something else.

But this...

He glanced at everyone.

This is hard to say.

But Lu Buwei asked, and he had to say it.

After thinking about it, Li Si lifted the front hem of his clothes.

Thinking of Lu Buwei sitting in front of him and secretly talking to him.

But Lu Buwei was now angry.

Seeing this, he yelled angrily:"Bastard, who are you, how dare you come to this seat of truth?"

"Just stand there and say it!"

"Tell me the truth word for word!"

Li Si was filled with resentment after being scolded by him.

I intended to save your face, but you humiliated me like this. You asked me to say this yourself.

He cleared his throat and said loudly:"Master Imperial Master, please let me go. Tell the Prime Minister"

"He said he was a locksmith before he went blind."

Lu Buwei frowned.

The people below were also confused.

Whether you are a locksmith or not, what does it have to do with not coming to the banquet?

Lis paused for a moment, then continued:"He also said that he, a locksmith, is a professionalSomeone else assigned the key"

"He asked his subordinate to ask another question"

"Lord Xiangguo, are you worthy?"

There was silence in the hall.

Everyone was muttering the meaning of this sentence in their hearts.

After a moment, they understood it almost at the same time!

Do you deserve it?

It's not about whether you deserve the key.

But, do you deserve to invite me to the banquet?

After everyone understood it, they stopped breathing immediately and did not dare to take a breath.

This was not just a loss of face.

This was simply a slap in the face of the Prime Minister!

"How unreasonable! How unreasonable!"

Lu Buwei lost control of his emotions instantly and kicked over the low table in front of him.

"Get out, get out, it’s all me!"

What a waste of a banquet!

The more people come today, the more shame he will lose!"

"Okay, okay, what a great National Preceptor."

Lu Buwei locked himself in the study. After more than half an hour, his anger was still gone.

Is there any need to think about this situation?

Li Mo has made it clear that he is on the side of the Queen Mother!

But Lu Buwei can't figure it out.

You Even if you are on the side of the Queen Mother, you should not be so upright and against me.

For so many years, even the Queen Mother has not dared to break up with me.

Where did you get the courage? (The Haohao) really thought there was a""Quicksand" in your hand, you are qualified to go against me?

The gauze curtain in the study suddenly swayed slightly.

The sun appeared in front of Lu Buwei like a black shadow

"My lord, according to the report from my subordinates, the Imperial Preceptor rejected your banquet and accepted Wang Jian’s invitation instead."

"At this moment, he was taking the Baiyue woman as a guest at Wang Jian's mansion."

Lu Buwei's brows jumped.

What the hell, are you slapping labor and management in the face again?

I rejected him at first, saying he was unworthy.

Then I went to Wang Jian's side.

I am a prime minister, but I don't have as much face as Wang Jian.

"Lord, do you want to send someone to ambush on the road?"

Lu Buwei raised his head, glared at him, and cursed:"Are you filled with shit?"

"Today, so many people know that the Prime Minister’s country was disgraced by his master."

"Now that he was being assassinated following him, wouldn't it be clear to everyone in the world that I sent someone to do it?"

Li Mo's identity is different now.

If it were anyone else, he would be killed.

But he is the national advisor appointed by King Qin just today! He attracts the attention of the entire Qin State!

If he is killed in Xianyang, where will the Qin State's face go?.

As the prime minister, Lu Buwei will be the first to be held accountable!

Then where does he put his face?

This method cannot be used to punish him.

At least not now

"You just said that he went to the banquet with that Baiyue woman? Lu

Buwei suddenly calmed down and asked in a deep voice.

Seeing Zhanri nodding, he asked again:"Is there another woman living with him?" Zhanri nodded again and said,"Yes, that woman has an extraordinary temperament. She must be a lady of some family." Lu

Buwei sneered loudly.

A cold light flashed in his eyes:"That's easy to handle."

He looked at Zhanri and said,"Send a few people to catch her.""

"I can’t kill you, but I also want you to have a long memory."

"I want to see if you can still be so stubborn when you come to beg me!"

The eyes that hide the sun and reveal the mask are emotionless

"Don't worry, Lord, I promise to complete the mission"
