Chapter 136

"Adding flowers to brocade is a matter of better than nothing. Although it can make the brocade more beautiful, whether that flower is there or not actually makes little difference. But sending charcoal in the snow is different; it can be said to be helping people in their urgency and saving people from fire and water!"

Su Xuan nodded, "That is exactly the principle."

"Therefore, I must let that person first feel a sense of crisis, and then appear to resolve his crisis. Tell me, when that time comes, how will that person be grateful to me?"

Yan Lingji asked Su Xuan curiously, "Who exactly is that person? Worthy of you valuing him so much!"

"If I say he is the King of the Qin Guo, do you believe it?"

Yan Lingji's delicate body shook, her expression shocked.

In this world, there are many kings.

The Seven States all have kings, and Baiyue also has a king, but if we talk about which king is the strongest, then it is clearly the King of the Qin Guo.

The national strength of the Qin Guo is the first among the states, and his king's status is also faintly above the other kings.

Even if, as far as Yan Lingji knows, this King of Qin has not yet reached the age of capping and personally governed, and state affairs are all temporarily handled by the Marquis of Wenxin, Lu Buwei, he is after all the King of Qin, not comparable to the King of Han.

She did not expect that the King of Qin would actually leave the Qin Guo and come to Xinzheng, and she did not expect that the other party would become Luo Wang's hunting target. You must know that Luo Wang is the official assassin organization of the Qin Guo.

'Is it done by that Marquis of Wenxin?'

Yan Lingji couldn't help but guess.

Counting the age, the King of Qin is almost old enough to be capped. According to the etiquette of the Qin Guo, after capping, he is considered an adult. At that time, state affairs clearly cannot continue to be handled by Lu Buwei.

Lu Buwei, as a merchant, became the Chancellor of the Qin Guo, which itself is a legend.

If he is greedy for power and does not want to let go, sending people to kill the King of Qin before capping is also a reasonable thing.

Time passed for another two days.

The Qin envoy Li Si was still in an aggressive attitude.

The Crown Prince of Han and his officials were all in a state of anxiety. They could only try their best to search for Tian Ze's whereabouts, hoping to bring Tian Ze to justice.

However, how difficult is it to catch Tian Ze?

Especially since Tian Ze had actually left the State of Han, their intensified search for Tian Ze's whereabouts was destined to be in vain.

And for those who like to drink flower wine, these two days were also very tormenting.

Because the Zilan Pavilion was no longer open for business.

It chose to close its doors to guests. In Zinu's words, the Zilan Pavilion was in disrepair and needed to be renovated. The time was uncertain. After the renovation was completed, it would provide everyone with better services.

Of course, this was the verbal meaning.

The real purpose of closing its doors to guests was naturally because of the stay of "Young Master Shang". Even if this was not the Qin Guo, Young Master Shang's status was unusual. The other party came from afar and was willing to stay in her Zilan Pavilion, which clearly showed that he thought highly of her. As the owner here, Zinu clearly also had to consider the safety of "Young Master Shang".

Even if the backyard of the Zilan Pavilion was very quiet, if there were too many guests in the front yard, it would be crowded and mixed, and accidents would inevitably happen. It was better to close the Zilan Pavilion for a few days for peace and quiet.

Young Master Shang also understood Zinu's intention and couldn't help but praise the owner of the Zilan Pavilion for being understanding, but he didn't say anything.

Compared to Zinu and Wei Zhuang, his main purpose for coming to Xinzheng this time was still for Han Fei.

His acquaintance with Li Si was an accident that was not an accident.

The reason it was not an accident was because Li Si had ambition, and Li Si approaching him was a deliberate act.

Although Li Si defected to the Marquis of Wenxin, Lu Buwei, he also saw Lu Buwei's aging posture, so on the other side, he secretly attached himself to him.

This was a kind of hedging behavior.

But Young Master Shang didn't care.

Trapped in a cage for a long time, he could also understand Li Si's hedging behavior, mainly because he had not personally governed and had not yet shown enough wrist and ability.

It was inevitable that others would temporarily wait and see, acting in a two-faced manner.

On the contrary, he still had to thank Li Si this time. If it weren't for Li Si's help, he wouldn't have been able to come to the State of Han so easily and meet Han Fei.

Strictly speaking, he knew Han Fei, which was actually related to Li Si.

To be precise, it was a scroll of books that Li Si brought to the Qin Guo.

Because he had not personally governed, he was usually trapped in the palace and could only rely on reading books to relieve boredom. Li Si gave him a scroll of books written by his fellow apprentice Han Fei.

After reading this book, Young Master Shang couldn't help but be amazed.

Just because the words in the book were pearls of wisdom, deeply in line with his intentions, and afterward, after reading this scroll of books I don't know how many times, he finally had an idea. He wanted to see the author of this scroll of books and wanted to invite the other party to conspire for a great cause.

And so, he secretly followed the Qin delegation to Xinzheng.

Unfortunately, after seeing Han Fei, Young Master Shang had already expressed his thirst for talent to Han Fei, but Han Fei remained unmoved and unwilling to be used by him.

This made Young Master Shang regretful and puzzled.

Han Fei could write such strange articles, didn't he know the situation of the State of Han? The late King had just died, and Ji Wuye had died, making the already weak State of Han fall to the bottom. What future was there in staying in this country?

It would be better to defect to him and create an unprecedented prosperous age with him.

However, Han Fei's meaning had already been expressed very clearly.

Although Young Master Shang was regretful, he could only choose to continue staying in the Zilan Pavilion, hoping that with the passage of time, Han Fei would gradually change his mind.

Especially at this moment, Li Si's continuous pressure on the State of Han might make Han Fei recognize reality.

The night was deep.

The bright moon hung in the sky, and the cold wind blew.

Suddenly, several figures appeared on the eaves of the Zilan Pavilion at the same time.

Inside the Zilan Pavilion, Wei Zhuang and others felt a sharp murderous aura for the first time.

This murderous aura flashed and disappeared, but it was so cold that it made people feel cold all over.
