The Chu Kingdom's Jin Yiwei was loyal to Chu Muxue.

All kinds of accusations about Su Ye's defection were instilled in him during training.

At this moment, when he heard that Su Ye was rude to Chu Muxue, he immediately scolded:

"Su Ye, you are a traitor and have received a letter from His Majesty. You should remember your grace and don't be ungrateful and shameless!"

When Su Ye heard this, he was still in a bloodthirsty mood and had no intention of getting used to this ridiculous fake Jin Yiwei.

He frowned slightly and quickly drew his sword.

The sword pointed directly at the throat of the Jin Yiwei.

The cold light flickered, reflecting the panicked face of the Jin Yiwei.

The next moment, the sword was stained with blood.

The Chu Kingdom Jin Yiwei's eyes widened with disbelief on his face.

He held his throat tremblingly, blood flowed from his fingers, and he fell straight down.

Su Ye looked indifferent and his tone was sarcastic:

"The one who is really shameless is your good emperor Chu Muxue!"

At this moment, Yan Lichu arrived.

She asked others not to report, but she never wanted to see the bloody scene.

When Su Ye saw Yan Lichu's arrival, he still wiped the edge of his sword coldly.

Behind him, the real Jin Yiwei dragged away the body of the Chu faker and cleaned it up.

Yan Lichu also ascended to the throne during a bloody struggle to usurp the throne.

After staying still for a moment, she walked to Su Ye calmly and said softly:

"Prime Minister Su, why are you like this?"

Su Ye glanced at Yan Lichu indifferently, put away his sword, handed the letter to Yan Lichu, and said calmly:

"Chu Muxue is extremely arrogant."

Yan Lichu raised his eyebrows and took the letter. His eyes scanned the paper. His face was calm, but his heart was already turbulent.

Chu Muxue's arrogant attitude towards Su Ye in the letter was clearly a shameless provocation.

She sneered and threw the letter on the desk.

Even she, a bystander who was not a party involved, was extremely angry when she read this letter:

"Chu Muxue's move is undoubtedly a blatant insult to your dignity and that of Yan State."

"Prime Minister Su, how do you plan to respond?"

Su Ye looked indifferent, with a sneer on his lips:

"Of course I will return to the Chu Kingdom, but I will definitely break the Chu Kingdom's city gates and go back in a fair and just manner!"

After saying that, Su Ye tore the letter into pieces and let the wind take it away.

In this cold night, Su Ye stood proudly under the moonlight, his white clothes beating the snow, telling his determination.

Yan Lichu looked at Su Ye who looked like a banished immortal in front of him, with a thought in his mind.

But she didn't say much in the end. She just patted Su Ye's shoulder lightly:

"Prime Minister Su, I believe in you, and the Yan State will fully support you!"

Even though Su Ye was as indifferent as he was, he couldn't help but feel a hint of warmth.

In this complicated world, he has been walking alone.

Su Ye took a deep breath and turned his inner gratitude into firm belief.

He believes that as long as he has faith in his heart and a sword in his hand, he can overcome all difficulties.

Chu State.

The news that the Jin Yiwei who delivered the letter had his throat sealed by Su Ye's sword came back to Chu Muxue's ears.

She immediately became furious and shouted:

"Su Ye, how dare you be so arrogant! It seems that you really don't take me, Chu Muxue, seriously!"

Chu Muxue stared out the window angrily, with a firm light shining in her eyes.

She must take action to make Su Ye pay the due price.

However, the real dilemma made Chu Muxue's pent-up anger only stay in her heart.

The Chu State, which had just escaped from the quagmire of war, could no longer bear any war.

What's more, Chu Muxue knows very well that the Yan Kingdom today is no longer the Yan Kingdom of the past.

Under the leadership of Yan Lichu and Su Ye, the State of Yan is rising and becoming increasingly powerful.

Chu Muxue clenched her fists, her heart filled with helplessness and worry.

She could not let Chu State be involved in the war, and she could not let the people of Chu State fall into the flames of war again.

However, Su Ye's betrayal made her feel a sense of frustration that she had never experienced before.

"Su Ye, do you really think you can escape from my grasp?!"

Chu Muxue's voice echoed in the empty room, becoming more and more sad.

At this moment, outside the main hall, the eunuch’s announcement came:

"Your Majesty, I have a guest to see you!"

Chu Muxue was in a state of anger, but was suddenly interrupted, and her arrogance became even more intense.

She reprimanded unceremoniously:

"Tell me, who dares to disturb me at this time?"

The eunuch's voice trembled slightly:

"Your Majesty, the visitor said that he has a way to help your Majesty destroy the Yan Kingdom and unify the nine states."

Chu Muxue's eyes narrowed, and immediately she raised her eyebrows with interest and said coldly:

"Let him in."

Chu Muxue calmed down and regained her former calmness and composure.

She knew that at this moment, she had to stay rational and not let her emotions influence her judgment.

After a while, the man was led into the hall.

The visitor was a mysterious man wearing a black cloak. His face was covered by the brim of the cloak and his appearance could not be seen clearly.

However, judging from his steady steps and the aura he exudes, this person is definitely not an ordinary person.

"I see your Majesty." The mysterious man bowed respectfully.

"Who are you?"

Chu Muxue's tone was cold and her eyes were as bright as a torch, staring closely at the mysterious man.

The mysterious man took off his hood, revealing a face that had gone through many vicissitudes of life.

His eyes were firm and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, seemingly with a mysterious smile.

"Your Majesty, I am Wu Qi."

Chu Muxue raised her eyebrows slightly. Within the Seven Kingdoms, they were known as Chu Suye and Qin Wuqi.

Wu Qi is from the Qin State, but he is not a minister in the court, but a counselor.

As long as you have enough silver, you can get a tips bag from Wu Qi.

According to legend, the kit contains strategies to solve difficult problems.

Wu Qi's name is known to everyone in the Seven Kingdoms.

Even as famous as Su Ye in Baiyi, he is known for his resourcefulness and is known as the "Qin State Think Tank".

Chu Muxue's eyes flickered and she said coldly:

"You said you have a way to destroy the Yan Kingdom and unify the nine states. Come and listen."

A cold light flashed in her eyes, and her tone was cold:

"If I find out that you are just bluffing, I will drag you out and kill you immediately!"

Wu Qi looked calm, smiled lightly, and said:

"I will definitely allow your Majesty to see the future of Yan Kingdom's destruction. As long as you agree, let me get rid of Su Ye."

Chu Muxue's eyes were shocked. There were people in this world who had the same ideas as hers!

There was a flicker of doubt in her eyes, but it was quickly replaced by curiosity and anticipation.

Chu Muxue waved the attendants to leave, leaving Wu Qi alone in the main hall.

Wu Qi paced the hall with a focused expression, as if he was looking for some kind of opportunity.

He stopped and his eyes fell on the Yan Kingdom part of the map on the desk.

Suddenly his eyes flashed and the smile on his lips became even wider.

He walked up to Chu Muxue, stretched out his finger to draw across the map, and said:

"Your Majesty, all you need to destroy the Yan Kingdom is this..."

Chu Muxue listened to Wu Qi's strategy, her expression gradually changed from doubt to appreciation, and finally her eyes lit up:

"Okay, I'll do as you say!"

The next day, Chu Muxue immediately announced that Wu Qi would be appointed Minister of Rites.

Give a high position to show respect.

Wu Qi's arrival gave Chu Muxue hope.
