"Prime Minister Lu, I don't like beating around the bush, you know that. So, let's get straight to the point." Xu Qingshan said slowly, looking at Lu Buwei in his seat.
"This is natural." Facing Xu Qingshan's gaze, Lu Buwei said sincerely. This time, he came with integrity, in order to... achieve sincere cooperation.
Although everyone in the court knew that he and Wu Anjun could fight on separate sides, in fact, he was the one being suppressed.
If it weren't for the trap entrusted to him by Ying Zichu, he might not have the strength to resist at all. Now, he thought about it.
Instead of fighting in separate courts, it is better for the two to cooperate. At that time, the Qin State was feared by everyone and could rule the world.
'It seems that Sanhao Lu Buwei has begun to exert his strength. "Listening to Lu Buwei's inner voice, Xu Qingshan couldn't help but smile.
Putting the country first and putting one's own interests second, he is indeed a man who is "loyal to the country".
"This time, I hope Mr. Wu An can take over the sharp weapon 'Net' from me." After saying that, Lu Buwei stood up and cupped his hands.
The net is his biggest bargaining chip this time, and it is also the biggest reward for his sincerity. He knew in his heart that he couldn't hold the snare by himself now, and he didn't need to hold it by himself.
He believed that Wu Anjun could wield this sharp blade more perfectly and was the only candidate. In his opinion, even the current Qin Wangzheng is not qualified.
'? Hearing Lu Buwei's words, Xu Qingshan was stunned for a moment. Your cooperation is to hand over the trap to me. It's really... a gamble.
But...you made the right bet this time. It's just a snare. As long as he thinks about it, it will always be a sharp knife in his hand.
As for its purpose for Qin, haha~
"I can take over, but Mr. Lu, you still need to stay in Luowang for a while." Xu Qingshan said directly while looking at Lu Buwei.
He could accept the trap, but Lu Buwei couldn't resign if he wanted to. How could such a useful talent be let go at will?
"Very good!" Lu Buwei agreed to Xu Qingshan's request without any hesitation. It is really hard to manage the net, especially when you first take over it.
Thinking back to when he first took over the trap, he wanted to find people... and money... he wanted to pay. Nowadays, the trap requires people and money, so that one can be self-sufficient.
This is what he has worked hard to support in the past three years. To be honest, he needs to feel heartbroken for a while if he leaves everything to Wu Anjun.
However, this pain was nothing more than temporary pain, and he was willing to suffer it for the sake of Qin. In the days to come, he will wholeheartedly assist Wu Anjun in fully controlling the snare.
"Since Prime Minister Lu is so happy, I won't shirk it. The snare... I'll take over." If you want to reach out to Qin, the snare is a very good tool.
However, starting so early will have a greater impact on the plot. The future stories should be more interesting.
Regarding the plot, Xu Qingshan doesn't care much about whether it's biased or not. Just follow your heart. ...Half an hour later.
"Sir, is this Mr. Lu?" After Lu Buwei left, Butler Zhang pointed at his head.
The meaning is very obvious, vividly expressing whether Lu Xiang's head is broken. You know, Prime Minister Lu has always been at odds with his own master.
Today, he was humbled again and took the initiative to 'cede'. He really couldn't figure out the reason.
"Why, Lao Zhang, do you think Mr. Lu is out of his mind?" Looking at Butler Zhang, Xu Qingshan couldn't help but curl his lips.
"Sir, I didn't say that." After hearing Xu Qingshan's words, Butler Zhang quickly denied it. There are some things that adults can say but they cannot.
"Pfft~" When Butler Zhang denied it, Xiaodie couldn't help laughing.
"Yeah!" Butler Zhang turned to look at his daughter, his eyes focused. 'You're laughing, there's no delicious food left for today!
'
"Oh~" Xiaodie covered her mouth after understanding the meaning of her father's eyes. She didn't want to lose today's snack just because she smiled.
"Xiaodie, don't be afraid, your father won't buy it for you, I will buy it for you." Looking at the little actions of the father and daughter, Xu Qingshan smiled and added fuel to the fire.
"Really!" Looking at Xu Qingshan, Xiaodie's eyes sparkled.
"Wu Anjun will not lie to others."
"Can you give it to Xiaodie now?" Quietly, she walked around her father and came to Xu Qingshan. Xiaodie raised her head and asked questions.
"Of course." He gently rubbed Xiaodie's little head with one hand, and Xu Qingshan put his other hand into his pocket and actually took out snacks from the system space.
"Are these okay?" Xu Qingshan asked with a smile as he spread the snacks in front of Xiaodie.
"Sir~" Looking at the reactions of Xu Qingshan and his daughter, Butler Zhang's tone was full of helplessness. But his eyes were filled with a hint of joy.
'You guy, I'm embarrassed to expose you. 'Three years ago I planned to be my father-in-law, but three years later I still refuse to let him go.
I won't let you get your wish so quickly. Although Butler Zhang's acting skills are good, they are completely useless to Xu Qingshan.
That hint of joy was clearly visible in Xu Qingshan's eyes.
"Xiaodie, I still have something to talk to your father. Can you just be quiet?"
"Yeah, yeah~" Xiaodie smiled and nodded repeatedly after getting Xu Qingshan's benefit.
"So good." Then he rubbed Xiaodie's little head, and then Xu Qingshan turned his attention to Lao Zhang
"Prime Minister Lu's actions today are not stupid. Turn retreat into advance and turn enemies into friends. How many people do you think can do this?" Bringing the topic back to Lu Buwei, Xu Qingshan quietly waited for Lao Zhang's answer.
"Yeah." Butler Zhang was stunned when he heard Xu Qingshan's words. Although Prime Minister Lu's actions today cut off his own retreat, he did convince the Lord.
From now on, the prime minister of Qin will no longer have any rivals. Thinking about it this way, Prime Minister Lu was indeed not at fault for this debt, but he didn't see it through.
"I've thought it through." Xu Qingshan said with a smile, raising his eyebrows slightly. Today's situation is no longer a transition between strength and weakness, but... win-win cooperation.
"I use myself to save others." Facing his master's gaze, Butler Zhang frankly admitted his mistake.
...Night, outside Xianyang City. On top of Mount Li, there is the headquarters of the Yin Yang Family - the Nine Palaces of the Divine Capital and the Star Observation Hall.
This is the core of the Yin Yang family. The leaders of the Yin and Yang family in the past dynasties have observed the stars and deduced the secrets of heaven here.
Entering it is like entering the starry sky. Under your feet and around you are extremely dark, like a void-like night, while above the zenith are stars that reflect each other.
The current leader of the Yin-Yang family, Donghuang Taiyi, was at the deepest part of the hall at this time. Wearing a black robe to cover his body, a gold crown on his head, and gold jewelry, he is mysterious and mysterious.
"Wu Anjun, Dao Protector... It seems that my treasure should be suppressed." Through the mask, he raised his head and stared at the starry sky above the dome, Dong Huangtai murmured to himself.
