Chapter 368

~5 min read 863 words

This night, almost all the nobles were excited!

Because... it was an opportunity!

This was a real opportunity!

Everyone was excited to the extreme!

"Write a letter immediately, asking Meng Wu to capture Ying Su when he passes through Yan Sect Pass!"

"Then, escort him to Xianyang City!"

"And we, in the morning court, will start pushing the First Emperor to return to the throne!"

At this moment, many people were shouting!

Everyone was excited!

At this moment, they even thought of the enfeoffment system, and those taxes, etc.!

Everyone was excited to the extreme!

And just amidst everyone's expectations!

Finally, the next day arrived!

But... just under everyone's expectations.

Feng Feng Qiji, Wang Wan, and Censor-in-Chief Li Tan did not take the lead in speaking for Ying Zheng!

Nor did they have any intention of pushing Ying Zheng to the throne!

They didn't speak, and others didn't stand up to speak for Ying Zheng either!

Nor did anyone mention this matter!

Even, some officials indicated that they had already paid all 10% of the tax!

"This..."

"Why?"

"Why don't you speak up?"

"And... pay taxes?"

"What do you all mean!"

After the court session, the Fourth Prince of Qin, Jiang Lu, was very confused and questioned some people!

However, they just smiled and didn't speak!

Then, they waved their hands and left!

These people continued to pursue and ask!

However... everyone was smiling, and no one spoke!

"Why? Why is this? Wasn't it all discussed last night?"

"With you like this, how can you accomplish things?"

At this moment, Jiang Lu was getting more and more anxious!

However, at this time, the head of the Wei family, the former foreign relative force of the Qin State, Wei Pao, walked up to him and smiled:

"Do you think they are all timid?"

"Isn't it?"

"Last night it was clearly discussed, but today no one took the lead to speak!"

Jiang Lu was furious!

You know, if Ying Su was brought down, he would also get benefits!

Even if he couldn't be the Emperor, with the enfeoffment system, as the Fourth Prince of Great Qin, he could also get a piece of territory!

How could he not be anxious?

However, Wei Pao looked at Jiang Lu and smiled:

"Fourth Prince, although you have supervised the country four times, in my opinion, you are not experienced enough!"

"Ah?"

"Why do you say that?"

Jiang Lu was confused!

Wei Pao said:

"Although it looks like the time is ripe now, how can you be sure that the news from Meng Wu is true?"

"How can you be sure that Meng Wu is not lying to us?"

"Ah?"

"What do you mean?"

Once these words were spoken, Jiang Lu was stunned!

Wei Pao said:

"To put it bluntly, Ying Su is cunning; what if Li Li Yuanba and Li Li Cunxiao didn't die?"

"Or what if this is Ying Su playing tricks?"

"You have to know, Ying Su has always treated us as enemies, and we have also treated Ying Su as an enemy!"

"This is almost an open card, a fact everyone knows!"

"But what is the reason Ying Su hasn't acted for so long?"

"He can't distinguish between friend and foe!"

"He can't kill all the nobles, right!"

"If he wants to distinguish between friend and foe, what should he do?"

"Pretend to be very weak and let the enemies jump out themselves!"

"In this way, wouldn't all the enemies be wiped out?"

"Understand?"

Wei Pao smiled!

And when these words were spoken, Jiang Lu's scalp was numb!

"This... this... do you mean that the report of victory from Meng Wu is fake?"

He asked while his scalp was numb!

Wei Pao waved his hand: "I didn't say that!"

"I just said that the situation is unclear now, and we need to wait! Wait and see!"

"And what I want to tell you is that these nobles are not fools; on the contrary, they are all very smart!"

"And smart people do things with a low profile!"

"The bigger the matter, the less people want to be the first bird!"

"Why? The first bird will be hit!"

"The first rafter will always rot first!"

"Although Meng Wu is a military man, he is not a fool either!"

"Do you know why he was in such a hurry to transmit the news?"

"What do you think he wants to do?"

"Nothing more than wanting us to act first, and then he will follow!"

"In this way, if nothing happens, that's naturally good!"

"But if something really happens, we will be the first to have an accident!"

"He still has room to maneuver!"

"After all... things haven't been done completely!"

Wei Pao was laughing!

And Jiang Lu's head was buzzing, and at this moment, he was shocked to the point of numbness!

Wei Pao continued:

"Wait!"

"Ying Su is good at calculations; Li Li Yuanba and Li Li Cunxiao are not ordinary people. If the news from Meng Wu is fake, do you know what the consequences will be?"

"People will die!"

"Many, many people will die!"

"Almost everyone involved will be charged with treason and executed!"
