Korean Embassy.
Not long after Zhao Jia and Da Siming stepped into it, Gai Nie came after hearing the news, raised his hands and saluted: "I have seen Marquis Changxin."
With a polite manner and bright eyes, the whole person is like a long sword unsheathed. The young Genie is like a sharp sword, unstoppable. This is completely different from him in later generations, both in temperament and Or his demeanor, maybe he hasn't figured out the path he should take yet.
Just like in the original work, Gui Guzi's assessment of the two of them, Wei Zhuang is undoubtedly more decisive than Gai Nie in these matters.
On the contrary, Gai Nie wanted to be normal, he was indecisive and wavered back and forth until the final result happened, and then he finally came to his senses. But things had already happened, so what could he regret and change? After all, there is no so-called medicine for regret in this world.
This may also be the reason why Guiguzi chose Wei Zhuang as his successor.
"Mr. Gai Nie didn't go to see Brother Wei Zhuang? We will return to Qin in a few days. I don't know when we will see you again."
Zhao Jia nodded slightly to Gai Nie, with a calm look in his eyes, and reminded him with concern.
"Thank you, Marquis Changxin, for reminding me."
Gai Nie nodded in agreement. He had no intention of going to see Wei Zhuang. The relationship between their fellow apprentices was quite special. They were fellow apprentices, and they were also destined opponents. They would be in a competition throughout their lives, and the winner would be the one who won. Become the new Guiguzi.
This time when I entered Korea, it was enough to have a discussion with Wei Zhuang once.
The way the two of them greeted each other was never with their mouths. Rather than using words, they preferred to communicate with the swords in their hands.
The strong are always special.
It's rare for two weirdos to appear in Guigu... Zhao Jia looked at the 'poor-tongued' Gai Nie and couldn't help but complain in his heart. The previous generations of Guiguzi were all talkative people, but in this generation they have become two. Dumb gourd, this may be the so-called burden of fame.
The previous successors of Guigu raised Guigu's standards too high, which resulted in the idols of this generation having too much burden...
Zhao Jia gave up his intention to chat. In a sense, Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang were in the same category. "I came to see Li Si. I want to talk to him about something."
His status is special, especially in the Qin State. There are some things that he is not suitable to do directly. Zhao Jia needs someone to help him do things, and Li Si is obviously the most suitable candidate. This person has been chasing power all his life. These are This is Li Si's biggest weakness.
The more a person lacks something, the more he pursues it.
For the so-called power, Li Si finally directly betrayed the Qin State for which he had fought his whole life...
"Marquis Changxin, please."
Gai Nie raised his hand and immediately led the way for Zhao Jia.
Da Siming took the steps exclusive to the Yin Yang Family and followed Zhao Jia step by step. His cold eyes fell on Gai Nie from time to time. Without him, the word "Guigu" was too heavy. Moreover, Gai Nie gave her a sense of oppression. Very heavy, this person is dangerous.
inside the house.
When several people entered the room, they saw Li Si reading. The book was not the paper book that became popular in the Qin Dynasty, but the original bamboo slips.
"kindness?"
Li Si noticed someone entering the room, and when he saw Zhao Jia's face clearly, he stood up to greet him. With a smile on his young face, he said, "Li Si pays homage to Marquis Chang Xin. I didn't know that Marquis Chang Xin was coming, so I was disappointed." Welcome from afar, please forgive me."
"Master Li's official tone is becoming more and more abundant."
Zhao Jia smiled when he heard this, and made a rather casual joke. He immediately walked to Li Si, looked down at the bamboo slips on the table, and asked curiously: "What is Mr. Li reading?"
"Five Beetles" written by senior brother Han Fei."
Li Si said softly.
Zhao Jia raised his hand to pick up the bamboo slip and said while reading, "I have heard a little about this article."
Li Si stood on one side with his eyebrows lowered and his head lowered.
Zhao Jia continued: "What do you think of Han Fei's article?"
"Senior brother is far more talented than me."
Li Si said humbly.
Zhao Jia glanced at Li Si, who was pretending to be humble, and the smile on his lips flashed away, and he said casually: "I think so too. In fact, I'm not the only one who thinks so. King Qin also thinks that Han Fei is a great talent. If not, Han Fei is a great talent in Korea." The Ninth Young Master, the King of Qin must have recruited this man at all costs."
"..."
Li Si's palms hidden in his cuffs had been clenched at some point, and a gloomy look flashed in his eyes.
Being self-effacing is just a habit, but it doesn't mean that he really feels that he is inferior to Han Fei. But at the moment, Han Fei is obviously more famous than his junior brother, and he is also more valued by King Qin and others.
This is what birth causes.
Li Si had to risk his life to get the opportunity, but Han Fei was able to get it easily.
"I have free time today and want to chat with Mr. Li. I wonder if Mr. Li has time."
Zhao Jia changed the subject and asked.
"nature."
Li Si nodded in response, immediately ordered someone to make tea, and invited Zhao Jia to take a seat.
Zhao Jia ignored Ge Nie and said slowly to Li Si: "I remember the last time I sat down and chatted with Brother Li was a few months ago."
The current Lord of Chang'an is still still there...
Li Si was slightly absent-minded, then shook his head and sighed softly: "Time flies, things change and people change. Li Si has not yet congratulated the young master on being named the Chief Trustee of the State of Qin!"
"Is this really worthy of congratulations?"
Zhao Jia looked at Li Si playfully and asked without answering. He didn't believe that Li Si knew nothing. If he didn't know anything, how could Lu Buwei send Li Si to Korea? In a sense, Li Si was now Lu Buwei's subordinate. young.
Li Si hesitated for a moment but did not continue. He was a little confused about Zhao Jia's methods. The more he came into contact with Zhao Jia, the more he discovered that the other party was not simple.
If it was really simple, how could he be conferred the title of Marquis of Changxin in an enemy country? That would be a step to the sky. If Zhao Jia's status was not embarrassing, it would not be an exaggeration to say that he had entered the center of power of the Qin State.
"Li Si, what do you think of Qin's situation?"
Zhao Jia did not dwell on this issue. He asked about the real purpose of this visit.
"What aspect does Marquis Changxin want to inquire about?"
Li Si's expression was slightly condensed, his tone became a little more serious, and he said in a deep voice.
Zhao Jia's face was indifferent. Faced with Li Si's solemn expression, he asked lightly: "In the power struggle between the King of Qin and the Prime Minister, which side do you think has a greater chance of winning?"
This casual tone made Li Si's face become more serious. He could not be as calm as Zhao Jia.
What's more.
If this matter spreads, whether it comes to the ears of Ying Zheng or Lu Buwei, it will not be good for Li Si's future, and the variables will be too great.
"...Marquis Changxin must have asked the wrong person. Li Si is just an envoy now, how could he know this."
Li Si pondered for a while and said slowly.
"Really don't know?"
Zhao Jia looked at Li Si calmly and said calmly.
Li Si was fucked into silence... (End of chapter)
