Chapter 308 One Move Is Missing

Yongcheng, Li Palace.

Because of the upcoming pro-incorporation ceremony, the whole palace was filled with a busy atmosphere. A man covered in a cloak, led by the Queen Mother's maid, entered an inconspicuous side hall and waited.

Soon, he found the person he was waiting for.

After the Queen Mother of Da Qin moved to Yongcheng, she gradually faded out of people's sight and rarely saw people. But she had to see this one.

"Why is Xiangbang in the mood to come to Yongcheng to meet my old friend?"

There was a hint of resentment in Zhao Ji's words. From a certain point on, Lu Buwei had been avoiding her as much as possible, as if she was a disaster.

Although her appearance has not faded away, she is no longer the woman Lu Buwei had in mind. When Lu Buwei faced Zhao Ji, he didn't have the mood or time to talk about his past friendship.

"Where are the two children?"

As soon as Lu Buwei's words came out, Zhao Ji became wary and no longer as graceful as before.

"What child?"

Regarding Zhao Ji's pretentiousness, Lu Buwei stroked his long beard and looked serious.

"I don't have much time. I just want to tell you that if those two children continue to stay here, there is only one way to die, but if they are left to me, there is still a way to survive."

Zhao Ji's expression changed drastically, and finally a sense of distrust filled every corner of her cheek skin.

"Leave it to you, why?"

Zhao Ji's face looked a little scary. She took a few steps back and kept a distance from Lu Buwei.

"I just want what an ordinary woman should have. If you don't give it, someone will give it to you. What's wrong with me that you want to take away what I cherish?"

"You are not an ordinary woman!"

Lu Buwei's anger burst out in his heart and he shouted loudly, then suppressed his emotions and softly comforted him.

"You have no idea of ​​the situation at this time, nor how dangerous it is." The change in mood made Lu Buwei look a little haggard, and said, "The king is no longer the child he was back then, he already has the qualities that a king should have. .”

"King?"

Zhao Ji was thinking about the meaning of Lu Buwei's words, but she was not allowed to think about it. Lu Buwei continued.

"Give those two children to me. You will still be the Queen Mother of Da Qin, and I will still be the Prime Minister of Da Qin. Nothing will change. Zhao Ji, believe me, those two children will definitely live a better life than they did before leaving the palace. Happier in the world.”

Zhao Ji was touched by Lu Buwei's words and hesitated, but the surrounding atmosphere suddenly changed, becoming air-conditioned and murderous.

Lu Buwei noticed something unusual, his face changed, and a burst of laughter suddenly came.

"What a touching image."

The door opened and Lao Ai walked in, holding a box in her hand.

"Lao Ai, why are you here? Get out!"

Zhao Ji shouted sharply, but all she heard was a chuckle from Lao Ai.

"What, did it delay the Queen Mother's meeting with her old lover?"

Lao Ai put the box on the table, turned around, and sneered.

"you--"

Zhao Ji never thought that Lao Ai would be so bold.

"Don't worry, I got what I wanted. I will leave naturally and give you enough time to catch up on old friendships."

Lu Buwei opened his eyes wide, seeming to have noticed Lao Ai's plot.

"You want Wang Xi!"

"Xiangbang is worthy of being a prime minister, and he really knows things well." Lao Ai laughed loudly and stretched out his hand, "Give it to me!"

Lu Buwei subconsciously touched his arms, and Lao Ai noticed this action. He jumped up. Zhao Ji wanted to stop him, but was not as quick as Lao Ai. He easily took out the Wang Xi hidden in Lu Buwei's arms and pushed Zhao Ji away with one palm.

Lu Buwei took a few steps back. When he stabilized his body, Lao Ai had already taken the royal seal and stamped it on the edict that had been prepared.

"I know that Xiangbang will definitely carry such an important thing with him."

Lao Ai picked up the edict and blew it with a look of pride on her face.

"What do you want Wang Xi to do?"

Zhao Ji asked angrily, but Lao Ai shook her head.

"What else can you do, of course, rebel!"

Lao Ai put the edict back into the box. At this moment, she was so happy that she didn't care at all.

"With these few edicts, I can mobilize the imperial guards from the palace and the nearby county soldiers. As for the two of them, Luo Wang will 'guard' the safety of the Queen Mother and the Prime Minister. Just wait for the news of my success!"

Lao Ai laughed loudly, relaxed her steps, and stepped out.

Zhao Ji looked at Lu Buwei helplessly and asked.

"what should we do?"

Lu Buwei looked unkind. He had been planning for a long time, but he didn't expect that his chess move was wrong, and Lao Ai planned it, and the boat capsized in the gutter.

"Where is your Queen Mother's Seal?"

Facing Lu Buwei's questioning, Zhao Ji showed timidity.

"I'm afraid it will fall into Lao Ai's hands."

Lu Buwei was not in the mood to criticize, he was just analyzing.

"With the King's Seal and the Queen Mother's Seal, Lao Ai can mobilize nearby county soldiers, imperial guards and official cavalry from the palace, plus his retainers, private

There are probably nearly 100,000 soldiers and Rongdi soldiers who have already been contacted. In a short period of time, he could mobilize tens of thousands of troops to besiege Qinian

palace! "

Lu Buwei was trapped here now, and all the previous preparations were of no use. The comparison of the enemy's and our own strength made Lao Ai's chances of winning a bit better.

"The only thing we can do now is wait. I have deployed people outside the palace. As long as there is chaos in the palace, they will find an opportunity to come in."

Lu Buwei found a place, sat upright, and closed his eyes.

Outside the palace, the soldiers gathered and were waiting. With the arrival of Lao Ai, the momentum of this group of warriors changed.

"I've met the Marquis."

"The rebels such as Lord Changping, Lord Changwen, and Lord Hanyang, in vain, want to send troops to rebel and endanger the king. On the orders of the Queen Mother, I will lead my troops to serve the king, and you will follow me to Qinian Palace."

Lao Ai raised the Queen Mother's seal and edict and shouted loudly.

"promise!!"

After receiving the order, the imperial guards from the palace assembled and set off under the leadership of Lao Ai's generals.

Lao Ai looked at this scene with great satisfaction and gave instructions to the Snare Assassin on the side.

"Tell Luo Wang that it's time to take action. King Qin, Lord Changping, Lord Changwen...these important people, and all the secret agents around them, are ready to start. Especially Zhao Shuang, pay special attention."

"News just came from Doctor Zhong. He is ready to take Zhao Shuang's life!"

"Very good! As long as these people die, I will have the final say on the situation in Qin."

Lao Ai touched the sword in her hand and seemed to feel a little regretful.

"It's a pity that I can't personally remove Zhao Shuang's head. However, I heard that there is a custom outside the Great Wall, where the enemy's head will be removed and inlaid with gold and jade as a tool! After I succeed, I will definitely remove his head. The head makes the best chamber pot!”

Lao Ai laughed loudly and waved her sword, full of heroism.

"Set off!"
