Chapter 52, Lu Buwei
The next day, Ziyou felt that the people following them had withdrawn.

"Lu Buwei's movements are not slow." Ziyou said while holding the carriage.

"At any rate, he is also a big shot with power over Qin. Our Yin Yang family had contacted him before, but the final result was very bad." Concubine Yan said.

"Oh? The Yinyang family has also come into contact with Lu Buwei? Are you Yinyang family not afraid of getting burned?" Ziyou was taken aback. The Yinyang family is best at predicting the future through celestial phenomena and evacuating disasters. Knowing that he is now in extreme danger.

Although Lu Buwei, the court of the Qin State, covered the sky with one hand, his foundation was too shallow. Although relying on a series of methods and wars, he successfully won the hearts of the people of the old Qin and gave him the capital to cover the sky with one hand, but the people of the old Qin always loyal to Qin. The royal family, not Lu Buwei, the Ying clan, the Chu family and other old-school forces in the court are all watching, especially Qin Wang Yingzheng is now gradually getting in touch with the affairs of the Qin court. No matter how you look at it, Lu Buwei, an outsider, is very dangerous.

"I don't know, this is what the Lord Donghuang said back then. It's just that after being rejected, the Yinyang family's influence in Qin was targeted." Concubine Yan shook her head and said that she was not Dongjun when the Yinyang family contacted Lu Buwei. , so she doesn't know much, but she heard that Lu Buwei rejected the Yin Yang family very strongly.

"It's rare goods to live in. It's really trivial for your Yinyang family to want to play this game with this legendary merchant." Ziyou looked sideways at Concubine Yan and said, now it seems that Lu Buwei has only two ways to go, one is to usurp the throne, and the other is to give up power and run ahead of time. But the latter knew it was impossible without thinking about it, so the Yin Yang family wanted to test Lu Buwei's first way, but he was still sober.

Although there were three divisions before, and the Tian family replaced Qi later, but what is the end?What's more, Qin Guo Chaotang is not like Tian's back then, there is no one else except Lu Buwei.

"Sir, you think Lu Buwei is untouchable, why do you want to touch him again?" Xue Nu asked.

"People always have to try, what if you succeed?" Ziyou said lightly.

"Try what?" Concubine Yan asked, poking her head out of the carriage.

"You are the only one who is very curious!" Ziyou said, patting Concubine Yan's forehead.

"But Mr. Ziyou? My lord is waiting for you." A middle-aged man in rich clothes stopped Ziyou's carriage and said.

Ziyou glanced at the gazebo in front of him. A middle-aged man in a brocade robe was sitting in the gazebo. There were two cups of tea on the table. There were four people standing around the gazebo, one of whom was with Ziyou and the others. Zhiyuan Zhengang, the other three are Duanshui, Chaoshen, and Yaoyao, all of whom are the sword masters of the Eight Swords of the King of Yue, and each of them is a veteran master.

"I see. Please wait for me, the steward." Ziyou said.

"You're welcome, sir. I'll just wait at the side." The steward took a step back and said.

Ziyou lifted the curtain of the car and said to Concubine Yan and Xuenv inside
"I'm going to see Lu Buwei, you wait here."

"Okay sir." Xue Nu nodded and said.

Concubine Yan bit her lip and nodded.

Ziyou nodded to the steward and got off the carriage. Under the leadership of the steward, Ziyou came to the gazebo.

"Marquis Wenxin." Ziyou saluted Lu Buwei.

"Mr. Ziyou, please sit down." Lu Buwei got up and said in return.

After the two sat down, Lu Buwei waved his hand and said
"You all step back, Mr. Ziyou is here, I'm safe."

The four snare killers looked at each other, nodded and retreated, and the steward also walked out of the gazebo, waiting by the side.

"Wen Xinhou believes in me so much, which makes me a little flattered." Ziyou didn't expect Lu Buwei to withdraw all his guards, and at the same time, he became more curious about what Lu Buwei was going to do.

"Mr. Ziyou's reputation resounds throughout the Seven Kingdoms, and he is known as a gentleman. I believe that Mr. Ziyou will not do anything to a stranger like me." Lu Buwei said.

"Marquis Wen Xin is polite. In terms of reputation, I am less than one ten-thousandth of Marquis Wen Xin. From merchants to feudal lords and ministers, who in the Seven Kingdoms can compare with you?" Ziyou boasted.

Lu Buwei laughed uncontrollably when he heard Ziyou's words, and said with a hint of reminiscence on his face

"At the beginning, I was a merchant and fortunate enough to befriend the late king, to help the late king return to Qin, to help the late king ascend the throne, from the merchant to the final appointment as a marquis and prime minister. Now that I think about it, I really miss those days."

Ziyou didn't speak, but quietly waited for Lu Buwei.

"It's too cold at the top. Although I have achieved the title of Marquis and Prime Minister and the power of the world, I have lost a lot. The older you are, the easier it is to feel emotional." Lu Buwei said halfway through his words.

The corner of Ziyou's mouth twitched, what you always said was so obvious, wouldn't it be inappropriate for me not to talk to you, but Ziyou didn't answer but said
"Yes, my teacher Xun Fuzi often feels emotional."

Lu Buwei was taken aback for a moment, then laughed loudly and said

"It's me who underestimated Mr., this time I'm looking for Mr. to ask him to explain my doubts for me?"

"Wen Xinhou can speak out for my subordinates to listen to, but I dare not say that I can help Wen Xinhou solve his doubts." Ziyou said.

Lu Buwei sighed and began to say

"I'm looking for Mr. for two things this time. First, I want to ask Mr. about my future."

"About the future, Marquis Wen Xin should go to the Taoist school." Ziyou said, did he regard him as a fortune teller?What's more, in Lu Buwei's current situation, there is only one way forward and that is to usurp the throne, but this is definitely a way to die, and Ziyou will not help him.

"It's exactly what the Daoist Beimingzi said about my future. Only Mr. Ziyou can help me, and their Taoists can't do anything." Lu Buwei said, he also knew that he was in danger now. The queen mother, the Ying clan, the Chu family, and the military all stared at him, and even Ying Zheng, who he single-handedly supported, divorced him for the sake of power.

Old thing, Ziyou scolded Bei Mingzi secretly, didn't he just put Bei Mingzi together?As a result, Bei Mingzi put him here. If the Taoists really wanted to help Lu Buwei, it would be a simple matter, but the Taoists knew that this was a fire pit, so they asked Ziyou to jump, and Ziyou had to jump.

"I don't know if Marquis Wen Xin wants to be Zhou Gong or Tu'an Jia?" Ziyou asked while looking at Lu Buwei.

Looking at Ziyou's piercing eyes, Lu Buwei was silent. It's not that he didn't think about going further, but the risk was too high for him to dare to gamble. He is no longer the businessman he was at the beginning, and his current position of power makes it impossible for him to go any further. Going to make a big gamble, especially when Zhao Ji told him that Ying Zheng was his child, made him cut off the possibility of that step even more.

"Who would like to be Tu'an Jia if he could be the Duke of Zhou?" Lu Buwei said.

"Since Marquis Wen Xin already has a choice in his mind, you should know how to choose. Some things should be broken as soon as they are necessary. You must know that the king of Qin is the king of the future, and if you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight." Ziyou said.

In fact, he knew what Lu Buwei was thinking, Zhao Ji fooled Lu Buwei that Ying Zheng was his child, so he really treated Ying Zheng as a child, thinking that he would help Ying Zheng handle all the things, and wait until Ying Zheng had enough strength After that, the power was given to Ying Zheng, but unfortunately things happened here. In the eyes of a father, children will never grow up.

"The future king of the world!?" Lu Buwei stood up suddenly and looked at Ziyou in disbelief. Although he was still in a high position, he was still shocked by this sentence, and then looked at Ziyou meaningfully.

Ziyou also nodded and looked at Lu Buwei, Lu Buwei sat down again, looked at Ziyou with a complicated expression and said
"This is a blessing for my Qin country."

Lu Buwei didn't expect that there would be an extra surprise in this visit to Ziyou. The courts of the Seven Kingdoms were looking forward to Ziyou's choice, but they didn't expect Ziyou to choose Qin. Ziyou's current choice is enough to affect the situation of the entire Seven Kingdoms. Not only because of his own influence, but more because of the Confucianism behind him. The Confucianism has already regarded Ziyou as its own card, and the country it chooses to take refuge in is the choice of Confucianism.
