Zhao Weiwang in the Warring States Period

It's just that Wei Wuji seemed to be hesitant, and said after a while: "If Ruji steals the talisman, the king will find out later, how can Ruji live? If so, I didn't kill Ruji's life?"

Hou Ying seemed to have expected this for a long time, and immediately said: "I heard that Ruji once said to those close to me that she wanted to die for the king in order to repay the favor of the king. Now the king asks Ruji to steal the talisman. Isn't that true?" Is it like Ji repaying her kindness with death? Please don’t hesitate, Your Majesty, so as not to miss this opportunity.”

Zhao Sheng on the side also joined the camp to help persuade, but no matter how the two persuaded, Wei Wuji seemed quite hesitant, obviously very reluctant to make Ru Ji sacrifice.

After a while, Hou Ying's face became serious, and an astonishing look suddenly burst out in his eyes, and he said loudly: "Your Majesty, Changping is now in danger of war, and this is the time when the two countries of Zhao and Wei are alive and dead. How can you, Your Majesty?" Is it because of a woman like Ji that the millions of people in the two countries are in a state of life and death? If Wei dies because of this, how will the king face the former king in the ground?"

This sentence finally moved Wei Wuji.

A moment later, a man who looked to be about 50 years old, with an ordinary appearance, a cold expression, and graying temples, walked into the study and bowed to Wei Wuji: "I have seen the king. "

Tang Qi, Wei Wuji's number one confidant, is in charge of the intelligence network of the entire Xinling Palace.

The reason why Wei Wuji was able to know that Wei Wangyu would send an envoy to order Jin Bi to attack Zhao tomorrow was precisely because Tang Qie, who was pretending to be Wei Wuji's coachman, secretly connected with Ruji's people when Wei Wuji had an audience with Wei Wangyu. Then get the information from Ru Ji.

Wei Wuji looked at Tang Qi with piercing eyes, and said, "Tang Qi, I have something urgent to tell Ru Ji, may you go to the palace and meet Ru Ji?"

Zhao Sheng, Lord Pingyuan, couldn't help but feel a little worried when he heard this.

Entering the palace late at night, and entering the palace secretly, is not an easy task.

However, what surprised Zhao Sheng was that Tang Qie agreed without any hesitation: "This matter is easy, I don't know what you want to tell Ru Ji?"

Wei Wuji took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice, "I want to ask Ruji to steal the king's soldier amulet and save Zhao."

Tang Qi was obviously taken aback when he heard this, but quickly regained his composure and said, "Since that's the case, I'll leave now."

Just when Tang Qi was about to turn around and leave, Wei Wuji suddenly stopped him.

"Tang Qi, after you get the talisman, can you take Ru Ji out of the palace?"

Tang Qi stopped and said after a while: "I will do my best."

Tang Qie left the study, and Wei Wuji, Zhao Sheng, and Hou Ying were left in the study again.

Wei Wuji didn't continue to speak, but was thinking about something.

Zhao Sheng glanced at Hou Ying on the opposite side, and saw a look of disapproval in Hou Ying's eyes.

Obviously, Hou Ying had some opinions about Wei Wuji's need to take Ruji's life into consideration at this moment.

In fact, not only Hou Ying, but even Zhao Sheng himself thought so.

In this era when human life is as cheap as a dog, what is the life of a mere woman?

In order to protect his reputation, Zhao Sheng killed his most beloved concubine in the same way?

But no matter what, after all, Wei Wuji was the one who made the final decision, so Zhao Sheng didn't say much, but sat quietly in the study and waited.

Waiting is always the most boring thing in this world.

This waited for two full hours.

It wasn't until the sound of a rooster crowing to announce the dawn could be heard outside the window that a burst of footsteps finally approached rapidly from the corridor outside.

The moment the sound of footsteps came, Zhao Sheng, who was already a little drowsy, suddenly straightened his body and opened his eyes at the same time.

The door of the study was opened, and Tang Qie entered first, followed by a gust of fragrant wind.

Zhao Sheng took a closer look and found that Tang Qi was followed by a woman dressed as a court lady. This woman had a slender figure, a fair complexion, and a pretty face. Her face was like melon seeds and her eyes were like crescent moons. Has a dignified charm.

"It seems that this woman is Ru Ji. This woman is so beautiful, it's no wonder Lord Xinling can't let go." Zhao Sheng thought to himself, and many gossip thoughts came to him.

Tang Qi walked up to Wei Wuji, took out something from his bosom, and handed it over with both hands.

"Your Majesty, Tang Qie is fortunate not to disgrace his life."

Chapter 1 Seventeen

Wei Wuji sat at the main seat, stretched out his hand to take the military amulet offered by Tang Qie, and his eyes naturally fell on it.

The soldier symbol is not big, and only half of it.

This half of the soldier talisman has a unique texture of bronze, which is cool.

Its whole body is made of bronze and is bluish-black in color. It looks like a crouching tiger on one side.

The little tiger is about three inches long and one inch wide, about the size of an adult man's index and middle fingers put together, quite delicate and compact.

On this half of the soldier talisman, there are also five small characters engraved in Wei Guo characters, which are "Bingjia" and "You Zai Guojun".

The half in Wei Wuji's hand is the right half of the soldier talisman in the hand of the monarch.

Looking at the right half of the soldier talisman in his hand, Wei Wuji let out a long breath.

No matter how much Wei Wuji hesitated before, how much worry he had, how many other emotions he should have or shouldn't have, from the moment he got the soldier talisman, he has no way out and can only continue to move forward.

Any weakness or retreat would be a dead end for Wei Wuji.

Tang Qi watched Wei Wuji remain motionless, and couldn't help reminding in a low voice: "Your Majesty, in two moments, it will be time to open the city gate."

Although these words were not explicitly stated, the meaning was obvious.

Wei Wuji had to leave immediately.

It is impossible to hide the theft of the soldier talisman for too long.

Wei Wuji stood up slowly, first saluted Ruji behind Tang Qie, and said solemnly: "Wuji has troubled Mrs. Ru this time."

Ruji smiled slightly, and said: "My servant has been favored by your lord, and I have wanted to repay you for a long time. It is my luck to help you now, so you don't need to say thank you."

Wei Wuji glanced at Ruji gratefully, then turned to look at Zhao Sheng who was already smiling: "Mr. Pingyuan, I want to go to Yecheng, can you go with me?"

Zhao Sheng nodded hurriedly and said: "Win to win, win to win."

Are you kidding me, Zhao Sheng stayed here for so long shamelessly, isn't it just for this day?

At this time, even if Wei Wuji drove Zhao Sheng away with a stick, it was impossible for Zhao Sheng to leave.

Speaking of which, Lord Pingyuan, who did not hesitate to stalk Zhao Guo, could be regarded as the time when the clouds opened to see the moon.

Wei Wuji looked around at everyone, and he saw affirmation and encouragement in everyone's eyes.

it's time.

Wei Wuji said to Tang Qie: "Since that's the case, hurry up and gather everyone, gather at the gate in a quarter of an hour, and set off for the camp in Yecheng!"

Tang Qi bowed his promise, turned and left.As Wei Wuji's number one confidant, Tang Qie knew very well who should be summoned at this time, and he was the best person to carry out this order.
