Although both of them were extremely talented people with extraordinary talents and learning, they couldn't help but panic when faced with this situation.
Facing Ning Cong's inquiry, Zhang Ru also looked melancholy.
"Now we have only three choices.
1. We will go to see His Highness the Crown Prince now, tell everything about the past, pray for His Highness the Crown Prince’s understanding, and surrender to His Highness the Crown Prince. This is just a choice. His Highness the Crown Prince may not necessarily believe us. This black gauze hat cannot be saved, and no one can. I don’t know if it will cost our lives, it depends on His Highness the Crown Prince’s mood.
Second, we directly take the blame and resign. I believe His Highness the Crown Prince, seeing that we have been serving Da Qin in the past, will not really kill me. At most, I will just be an idle person from now on. "
Both of them had a look of reluctance on their faces. They had worked hard for so long to get to where they are today. Naturally, they didn't want to just hand over the position of minister that they had worked so hard for, but they knew very well that once the emperor is the emperor, there are always ministers. It makes sense. In the Qin Dynasty during Ying Tu's time, there was no ship to carry them. If they didn't get off the ship, they would have no choice but to drown in the sea.
"What about three?"
"The third is to contact the State of Qi. The incident happened suddenly. The State of Qi does not know what is going on in the Hall of Supreme Harmony at this time. I am afraid that the Queen is also powerless at this time and cannot contact the State of Qi. If we contact the State of Qi, the King of Qi will be here The Qin State has been planning for so long and has paid so much. How can it be reconciled? It will definitely take action.
The six kingdoms were united, and Qi was the main one. If not, how could the king have allowed the queen to come to court before going into seclusion? This was a helpless move forced by the power of Qi.
Your Highness the Crown Prince seems to have won, but King Ruo of Qi is angry and unites the power of the six countries to march westward. Your Highness the Crown Prince, for the sake of the safety of the Qin State, you have to send the Queen to the Kunning Palace, and how to send the Queen out, etc. When we are in power, we naturally don't need to worry about the issue of power. With this move, we may be able to take a step further.
After all, he is young and has not seen clearly what the Queen's Empress truly relies on. He thinks that he can secure victory with the help of a heavenly realm. How is it possible that the Queen's Empress' real reliance is on the State of Qi.
Taking a step back, even if His Highness the Crown Prince is young, would it be difficult to use the power of Qin to fight against the other six countries? With our talents and knowledge, would it be difficult to go to Qi to do some work? It's better than waiting here for trial! "
this!
Listening to Zhang Ru's words, Ning Cong couldn't help but change his expression.
He understands the truth, and he doesn't like the feeling of handing his life into the hands of others. But after all, King Qin has been kind to them. If he acts like this now, isn't he betraying King Qin's kindness? What's more, Betrayal of Qin will ultimately be detrimental to your reputation.
"Okay, I'm just waiting to save myself. Thinking about Master Fu's ending, do you think we have any choice?"
Ning Cong was shocked when he heard this, yes, do they have any choice?
He couldn't help but feel even more bitter in his heart, and nodded, "Then let's contact Qi State now."
In the past, the contact between Queen Jiang and King Qi was passed through Qi Wenjun. However, they were the core force of Queen Jiang's team and knew the secrets Qi had buried in the royal city. Now that Qi Wenjun has been dealt with, they want to The only way to contact Qi State is through these secrets.
The two of them left the mansion directly and headed towards a book hall in the city.
What the two of them didn't notice was that there was a figure behind them, following them from a distance.
The Book Hall is a spy sent by the State of Qi to the State of Qin to be responsible for the intelligence of the State of Qin.
All intelligence from Qin State will be passed here, and then compiled and sent back to Qi State. If Qi State wants to do something in Qin State, orders will also be issued from Qi State to here, and then passed on step by step. This It is the hub of Qi State in Qin State. The owner of the bookstore is also a famous grand master in Qin State, and his status in the Qin State's scholar circle is not low.
To be honest, even Zhang Ru and Ning Cong were shocked when they first learned that this was Qi Guo's secret saucer.
In the bookstore, Zhang Ru and Fu Hui entered the inner courtyard after exchanging passwords with the store clerks.
Grand Master Tian Yuan was drinking tea and reading there. He was a little surprised when he saw the two of them, "Two adults, are you actually here in person?"
What happened in the Hall of Supreme Harmony just happened. No matter how powerful the Qi spies were, they still hadn't figured out what was going on at this time, and Tian Yuan didn't even know.
Zhang Ru and Ning Cong didn't dare to show off, and hurriedly explained the matter.
"Pa! What!"
The teacup fell to the ground and shattered. Tian Yuan stood up in shock. Spy wars like theirs existed in every country, but the most comfortable ones were those who were deployed to the Qin State. After all, the Qin State had Queen Jiang's natal family, with Queen Jiang's care, they can travel almost unimpeded in Qin.
This is true whether it is getting information or doing a task.
As a commander, it is naturally easy for him to do so. If Qin becomes part of Qi's territory in the future, his status will rise even more.
But today, Zhang Ru and Ning Cong actually told him that Queen Jiang was knocked down by that prince?
Isn't this a joke? Even Ying Tu, that good-for-nothing prince and prodigal son, is worthy of fighting with Queen Jiang. After so many years of planning and management, could it be that he is just playing house?
But Zhang Ru and Ning Cong wouldn't come all the way to joke with him.
Tian Yuan also knew that the matter was serious, so he hurriedly asked someone to spread the news back to Qin.
"wrong!"
Tian Yuan, who had just taken two steps, suddenly screamed secretly.
Zhang Ru and Ning Cong were also surprised, "What's wrong?"
"It's too quiet."
It's so quiet!
Zhang Ru and Ning Cong also realized something. When they came, there were many people in the bookstore and there was a lot of noise. Why is it so quiet now? Nothing will happen.
"Let's go!"
Tagaki is an old spy, and his first reaction is to leave.
Unfortunately it's too late.
As soon as he walked out of the room, he was stabbed by a sword. Tian Yuan quickly blocked it. As a grand master of literature and art in the grand master realm, Tian Yuan's strength was not just talk.
Unfortunately, today he really met his opponent.
Five more swords appeared, and Tian Yuan was quickly suppressed. Tian Yuan looked at the six people forming a sword formation in front of him, and seemed to realize something.
"Net!"
He was also investigating the matter of Qi Wenjun and Ye Wu, and the Six Sword Slaves also came into their sight.
However, Tian Yuan did not expect that they would meet so soon. Still in this way, looking at Zhang Ru and Ning Cong who had also been taken down, Tian Yuan felt even more helpless. He had been lax for too long and let down his guard. Wow, it was so easy to get caught in one fell swoop. Luo Wang obviously followed Zhang Ru and Ning Cong to find this place.
It’s over! This time, not only Queen Jiang is finished, but all the hard work that Qi has put into Qin is also finished.
