Zhao Weiwang in the Warring States Period

Being caught lazy by your boss is definitely a taboo in the workplace, not to mention that this boss is not an ordinary company boss, but a person who can determine Lu Buwei's future and even life and death.

So Lu Buwei made up his mind a long time ago that he must be very busy every day, even if he is not busy.

There is a saying that is good, life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills.

On this day, Lu Buwei had just returned from a patrol with a few subordinates in the heavy snow when he received an order.

"Weiwei, the crown prince told you to enter the palace to have an audience immediately!"

Lu Buwei's heart skipped a beat, then he nodded slowly and said, "I'm going to the palace now."

As a knowledgeable and interesting subordinate, Lu Buwei traveled very fast.

After all, Lu Buwei knew very well in his heart that his prince was not a very patient person. If his hands and feet were too slow, those who greeted Lu Buwei would probably be bombarded with saliva.

About two quarters of an hour later, Lu Buwei rushed to the main hall of Xianyang Palace, where he saw the angry prince.

Lu Buwei didn't dare to neglect, he hurriedly stepped forward and bowed to salute: "I have seen the prince."

The prince's face was very gloomy, he pointed to a seat in front of him, and said to Lu Buwei, "Sit."

Lu Buwei sat down, glanced around the hall without showing any trace, and suddenly found an old eunuch standing in a corner of a certain palace behind the prince, and quietly gestured to Lu Buwei.

Lu Buwei withdrew his gaze expressionlessly, but was slightly agitated in his heart.

There was no other reason, because the hand gesture made by the old eunuch just now was exactly the secret signal agreed by Lu Buwei and Hou in Lu Buwei's mansion that day.

When this secret signal appeared in front of Lu Buwei, it only represented one thing. The plan that Lu Buwei and Hou made in advance was officially launched at this time.

Lu Buwei exhaled lightly, and said to the Crown Prince of Qin in front of him, "I don't know why the Crown Prince summoned his ministers here?"

The crown prince seemed a little upset, he stretched out his hand and waved away everyone around him, and then threw a slip in front of Lu Buwei: "Lu Qing, you can see for yourself."

Lu Buwei hesitated for a moment, and picked up the slip.The above content is actually very simple, mainly talking about Yangquan Jun Michen.

"Yangquan Lord Michen colluded with Wu'an Lord Baiqi, intending to rebel and establish a new king!"

Just one sentence caused a huge wave in Lu Buwei's heart, and even the evidence listed under the bamboo slips was ignored by Lu Buwei himself.

To be honest, even Lu Buwei himself didn't expect that Hou would be so decisive when he acted, pointing directly to the core.

Rebellion is absolutely a taboo for any king, if it is really confirmed that Mi Chen wants to rebel, then Mi Chen can be said to be dead.

But the question is, can the prince be convinced that Mi Chen really wants to rebel with just this slip of paper?

Lu Buwei's head started to move quickly, and began to weigh the pros and cons of it.

The next moment, the prince in front of Lu Buwei asked Lu Buwei: "Lu Qing, in your opinion, is the content written on this slip really credible?"

Lu Buwei didn't answer right away, but thought for a while, and then said to the Prince of Qin in front of him: "Prince, I thought that Yangquan Lord and Wu'an Lord were planning to rebel so rashly just by relying on a letter. , it is too arbitrary. More evidence should be found."

The prince couldn't help but gasped when he heard the words, looked at Lu Buwei with some surprise, and said, "Yangquan Jun Michen is your political enemy, and you will speak for him on this matter?"

Lu Buwei coughed, and said to the prince seriously: "Back to the prince, although there are some differences between the minister and Lord Yangquan, it is only a matter of political opinion. Whether it is a minister or Lord Yangquan, it must be for the prince. Allegiance, allegiance to Qin."

"That's why I beg the crown prince to investigate this matter carefully, and we must not draw conclusions easily. Otherwise, if it is Zhao Guoren's countermeasures, wouldn't it be in Zhao Guoren's arms?"

For Lu Buwei, he actually didn't think that this matter could directly bring down Mi Chen, so he kept it for a while, and if it didn't work out, he could pick himself out.

If Lu Buwei really felt that Mi Chen would die this time, then Lu Buwei would have fired all his fire just now.

After listening to Lu Buwei's words, the crown prince nodded thoughtfully, and said to Lu Buwei: "This is indeed the truth, so in your opinion, how should I get more evidence?"

Lu Buwei hesitated for a moment, and said to the prince: "Prince, I dare to ask, is the person who sent this secret report reliable?"

This is actually a temptation by Lu Buwei.

The prince took a deep look at Lu Buwei, and asserted: "Don't worry about this, the person who sent this secret report is absolutely reliable!"

Lu Buwei nodded, and said: "Since this is the case, then this means that this secret report should not be groundless. If this is the case, I think you might as well give it a try."

"Knock the mountain to shake the tiger?" The prince asked, "Speak carefully, how should you knock the mountain to shake the tiger?"

Lu Buwei stroked the beard under his chin, and not only said calmly: "Since someone has reported that Lord Yangquan intends to make trouble, then the prince might as well call Lord Yangquan here directly, and confront him face to face, to see what he said. "

"After the confrontation, the crown prince only needs to send someone to keep an eye on Mr. Yangquan. If Mr. Yangquan did not intend to cause trouble, then he will naturally not reveal any flaws. But if Mr. Yangquan really intends to cause trouble as stated in the secret report, Then it will definitely show its feet, and then follow the vines to find out and wipe out all its followers."

The prince couldn't help but slapped his thigh when he heard the words, and praised Lu Buwei: "This idea of ​​Lu Qing is very close to my heart. Come here, send me an order, and immediately send Yangquan Jun Michen to the palace to see him!"

Mi Chen didn't make Lu Buwei and the prince wait for too long. About half an hour later, the Xiangbang of Qin came to the hall in a hurry and saluted the prince respectfully.

"I don't know what the prince is calling for?"

The prince obviously followed Lu Buwei's strategy just now, and when he saw Mi Chen's arrival, he immediately sneered and threw the bamboo slips in his hand in front of Mi Chen.

"Mi Chen, someone reported that you secretly colluded with the ministers to plot against him. I wonder what you have to say about this matter?"

Mi Chen's body shook violently when he heard the words, and a surprised expression appeared on his face.

For Mi Chen, this scare can be said to be no small matter.

The next moment, Mi Chen's body trembled, and he immediately knelt down towards the prince in front of him: "Prince Mingjian, I absolutely have no intention of rebelling against you. It must be because I don't know who is jealous of the prince's favor and wants to Framed by the minister!"

As Mi Chen spoke, she turned her gaze, and suddenly saw Lu Buwei sitting beside her.

So Mi Chen suddenly pointed at Lu Buwei and screamed: "Lu Buwei, it must be you, a despicable guy, who slandered the prince and wanted to murder me, isn't it?"

Lu Buwei snorted, and said to Mi Chen: "Mr. Yangquan, you don't want to spout blood! I just came here at the order of the prince!"

What Lu Buwei said was really the truth.

But how could Mi Chen believe it?Immediately he opened his mouth and said to the prince: "Prince, this Lu Buwei openly framed the minister, and his heart is to be punished. Please ask the prince to be fair and straightforward!"

The prince originally had doubts about Mi Chen because of this secret report from Hou, but now seeing that Mi Chen has been trying his best to pour dirty water on his loyal minister Lu Buwei, this makes the prince feel natural about Mi Chen. It's even more distasteful.

So the prince snorted coldly and said, "Mr. Yangquan, do you really have nothing to say?"

Looking at the prince's appearance and tone, Mi Chen didn't know that the prince was already suspicious?I was shocked and scared for a while.

To be honest, Mi Chen really planned to launch a coup to replace the prince, otherwise he would not have quietly sent Sima Jin to contact Bai Qi.

But because of Bai Qi's refusal, this plan lacked enough power to launch.

So for now, this plan is actually just a plan.

In fact, not many people know about this plan. After all, this kind of plan itself needs to be kept secret the most.

But now the crown prince puts on such an appearance with certainty. Could it be that someone has become a traitor, or is Bai Qi breaking his promise to inform?
