After Yinhuan left, the shadowy figure suddenly appeared next to Cheng Qiao, and a low and hoarse voice sounded.
"Your Majesty, do you want to guard against him?"
"what you think?"
"I think Yinhuan is trustworthy, but it is still necessary to be careful. Your safety is the most important thing."
"Even if something unexpected happens, no one can keep me if I want to leave, but... we still have to be careful."
"My subordinate understands."
Zhanri hesitated for a moment and then said: "Your Majesty, would you like my subordinates to take action for you?"
"Your internal force is of a single nature and is too corrosive. It will damage other organs. It will not be able to moisturize things, and the damage to the body will gradually increase."
"Lu Buwei is not Liu Yi. He is already quite young and does not know martial arts. If you take action, he will not live for more than a few years."
"If there is an old man in the family, it is like having a treasure. This person is very talented. He can handle the government affairs of the Qin State in an orderly manner and has merits externally."
"Since he has not crossed the line yet, there is no need to take his life. Living a few more years will be good for Qin."
"Let's go back."
As soon as Cheng Qiao's figure moved, he escaped into the drizzle and gauze. Zhan Sun followed immediately, and the figures of the two rising and falling turned into small dots and disappeared into the horizon...
That night, while Lu Buwei was resting, Yinhuan left the Prime Minister's Mansion on the pretext of going out to have fun, and secretly came to Luo Wang's headquarters.
Yinhuan handed the handwritten defense map of the Prime Minister's Mansion to Zhan Ri, notifying him of the days when he would be responsible for the main defense. He also engraved the black spider mark of the net on his leg, officially joining the net.
Cheng Qiao was not in a hurry to take action. To be sure, he waited until the funds from the Changsheng Chamber of Commerce were fully received and went to the Prime Minister's Mansion to talk to Lu Buwei. He used this fair opportunity as an excuse to visit and personally explored the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Half a month later, Cheng Qiao felt that the time had come and took action on the day when Yinhuan was on duty.
That was the day when the first snowfall came in winter. Snowflakes fell from the sky and gradually dyed the sky and earth. By night, the snow was accumulating, and the sky and earth had turned into white.
Cheng Qiao's senses were fully activated, he changed his appearance, avoided the patrols of the Prime Minister's Mansion with ease, and successfully arrived at the checkpoint outside Lu Buwei's study.
At this time, Yinhuan secretly moved the guards around the study farther away as agreed.
…
Lu Buwei is the prime minister, and Zhao Ji basically doesn't care about anything except major matters. Therefore, the government affairs are very busy, and they have to be handled until late at night when they return to the mansion.
Of course, if Lu Buwei knew how to delegate power, he wouldn't have to work so hard. However, for people like Lu Buwei who are keen on power, they will not give up power unless they have to.
Some people who are keen on power cannot give up power even if they die. Lu Buwei is not that stubborn and cannot do anything when it is really necessary. He is also a person who can afford it and let it go.
Historically, Lu Buwei was implicated in the Lao Poison Incident, completely alienated from Ying Zheng, and fell into a huge crisis.
In fact, Lu Buwei, who has been in charge of the Qin State for many years, is not without the ability to resist. Although the chance of winning is not very great, if he really resists at all costs, the Qin State will definitely not feel comfortable. If he does not handle it well, his vitality will even be seriously damaged.
Xing Jin's Lao Du has the ability to make judgments, not to mention Lu Buwei, who is deeply rooted in the Qin State?
If Lu Buwei is determined to fight to the death, the damage caused will definitely be much greater than that of Lao Du, and he will not be less generous than Xiong Qi, the second and fifth son of Qin State, Changping Lord.
Perhaps he couldn't let go of his posthumous reputation. With Lu Buwei's powerful position, most things in the world were at his fingertips, and what he pursued more was to leave his name in history.
Maybe it was because Qin's vitality was severely damaged because it could not bear to fight for a lifetime, maybe it was because he felt guilty towards Ying Zheng, maybe it was because he foresaw that even if he resisted, he would fail.
Due to various reasons, Lu Buwei did not put up a desperate resistance, gave up his power to dominate the government, obeyed Ying Zheng's arrangements, left Xianyang, and returned to his fiefdom in Henan.
Because Lu Buwei had made great contributions to serving the late king and to the Qin State, and there were many guests and debaters interceding for him, Yingzheng spared Lu Buwei.
"Rebirth of the Great Era of Fighting Waves"
It's just that the official position of Prime Minister, the title of Marquis Wenxin, and the fiefdom are all still there, so the end is not bad.
After returning to the fiefdom, for more than a year, envoys and guests from various vassal states came to visit him in an endless stream. Perhaps Lu Buwei was too old and his brain was not very bright, so he did not thank the guests behind closed doors, but received them in public.
This really violated the taboo of Ying Zheng and also violated the taboo of Qin's courtiers.
Lu Buwei has been in charge of the Qin State for so many years and knows many secrets of the Qin State. It is not an exaggeration to say that he knows the Qin State like the back of his hand. If Lu Buwei defected to another country, how big a threat would it pose to the Qin State?
Not to mention defecting to other countries, even if you reveal some information from your mouth, it will have a big impact on Qin.
Therefore, envoys from Yingzheng sent a letter to question Lu Buwei and issued an edict to move Lu Buwei's family to Shu.
At that time, Shu was not a land of abundance. The power of the Dujiangyan Irrigation System built by Li Bing and his son was beginning to show, but it had not yet been fully exerted. The mountains were high and the roads were dangerous, and the miasma was full of ferocious beasts. Except for a few places, all other places were used as places of exile.
Since Lu Buwei's life had been spared at the beginning, Ying Zheng did not intend to go back on his word and take Lu Buwei's life. He just planned to move Lu Buwei to the plains of Shu for retirement, isolating communication with the six countries and eliminating hidden dangers.
However, people have different ideas. The letter sent by the messenger was a vent for Ying Zheng's dissatisfaction and a warning, but in Lu Buwei's eyes, it was a coercion similar to an ultimatum.
Lu Buwei was already very old at that time, and he had to trek all the way from Henan to Shu. The distance was far enough, the mountains were high and the roads were dangerous, and he didn't know whether he could bear the burden of his old bones.
The combination of subjective and objective reasons caused great psychological pressure. Lu Buwei was afraid of being killed in the future, so he simply drank poisoned wine and committed suicide.
At that time, the custom was that officials could not be punished, and it was a shame for the nobles to use axes and axes on their bodies.
Cheng Qiao knew about Lu Buwei's deeds, and his opinion of Lu Buwei was that his merits far outweighed his faults.
Therefore, Cheng Qiao did not want to kill Lu Buwei before the deal was done.
If everything goes well, Lu Buwei will be able to retire with success and enjoy his old age and the glorious inheritance of his family in the future.
…
Cheng Qiao didn't wait for two minutes before Lu Buwei finished handling the day's political affairs and dragged his tired body to the specially arranged bedroom in the study to rest as usual.
After the waiter left and the lights in the study were turned off, Cheng Qiao sensed that Lu Buwei had fallen asleep and sneaked into the study, avoiding obstacles, silently came to the bedroom and stood beside the bed.
Cheng Qiao flicked his fingers and hit Lu Buwei's sleeping point accurately through the brocade quilt. Then he stretched out his right hand and pressed it on Lu Buwei's lower abdomen to lift the kidney water in the body.
The kidneys belong to water, and the black kidney water qi falls like a drizzle through a brocade quilt and penetrates into Lu Buwei's kidneys and related meridians. Cheng Qiao controls the kidney water qi to moisturize things and silently start to transform.
Cheng Qiao did not simply want to destroy Lu Buwei's kidneys and related organs, as Lu Buwei's body would not be able to survive for long.
The invading kidney water energy only caused Lu Buwei's kidney deficiency and destroyed the cavernous body and smooth muscles, causing a very common but unspeakable disease in modern times. It had very little impact on other organs and was almost negligible.
Kidney deficiency can still be remedied, but if the cavernous body and smooth muscles are damaged, it will be difficult to treat.
At Lu Buwei's age, he is already beyond his capabilities. He most likely won't suspect that someone is up to something. Even if he puts down his dignity and asks a famous doctor, he probably won't allow the famous doctor to look into private areas.
As a result, treating the symptoms but not the root cause, no, even treating the symptoms is out of the question, and it will never be possible to regain its former glory.
You are so old, how can you be so sexy?
The so-called color is a steel knife that scrapes bones, sucks bones and squeezes marrow, turbid heart and eliminate ambition. I am also doing it for your own good.
If you stay away from female fairies and stay away from women, you will definitely be able to live for several more years.
After the transformation was completed, Cheng Qiao took back the energy of kidney water, calmed down for a while, and then used the energy of heart fire to slowly dry the wet brocade quilt.
After getting it done, Cheng Qiao checked it and left after making sure there were no clues left.
