Ye Yu was about to tell Li Si, but remembered what happened last time, so he shook his head and said, "No, I'm not sure if it will be possible. I'll tell Tonggu when I come back."

"I see..." Li Si didn't care, and replied with a smile, "Then I'll just wait for your good news."

"Thank you." Ye Yu walked out of the courtyard with him, and they parted ways at the door.

Ye Yu was rushing to realize his idea, so he couldn't see Li Si who was smiling at him just now, but after turning around, his expression suddenly disappeared.

If Ye Yu really had no other way, Li Si's suggestion was indeed the best for him.

Of course, Li Si's suggestion could not simply ask Ye Yu to wait until Wei was destroyed. That was definitely not Li Si's style. Although he hadn't had time to say it, Ye Yu could already guess what he meant.

Being Qin's spy next to King Wei, based on the fact that Wei will be destroyed sooner or later, this is the method that can create the greatest benefits for him and Qin.

Mo underestimated the spies, if Ye Yu could really be the No.He can cooperate with Qin State and let Wei State attract the hatred of the world, and then Qin State can get time to cultivate his life and rest. Whether it is at this stage or in the long run, as long as he has made enough achievements, he can still be in Qin State in the end. The country enjoys the same salaries of senior officials, which is really a win-win strategy.

But the biggest problem is that Ye Yu is not willing to do this, he doesn't want to be a "concubine" who will bring disaster to the country.

Ye Yu had already arrived outside the palace gate, but the guards in front stopped him.

"I'm the doctor next to Lu Xiang." Ye Yu first revealed his identity.

Ye Yu often accompanied Lu Buwei in and out of the palace. Those guards were naturally familiar with him, but the chief guard checked his ID and asked, "But what orders does Prime Minister Lu have?"

Of course, Ye Yu didn't have the passport given by Lu Buwei, otherwise he wouldn't be lingering here, so he just said, "I need to see the king."

Of course he couldn't go in without permission, but the chief guard saw that he was someone close to Lu Buwei, in order not to offend Lu Buwei, and suspected that Ye Yu might really want to convey something for Lu Buwei, he still sent someone to pass it on.

After a while, a servant next to Ying Zheng came over, "Ye Langzhong, please."

Only then did the guards let him go, and Ye Yu followed the servants to the place where Ying Zheng was locked.

Ying Zheng also asked the same question as the head of the guard: "Father Zhong sent you here, what's the matter?"

Ye Yu shook his head and bowed again: "This minister wants to see the king."

"Oh?" Ying Zheng seemed to have thought of something, and his tone was higher, "Is it because of the Wei envoy?"

"Yes." Ye Yu replied truthfully.

Ying Zheng tapped the wooden table lightly with the bamboo slips in his hand and made an oppressive voice, "You are bold to ask the widow directly, because you think that the widow will not send you off at this time because of your status as Lord Longyang. ?"

Ye Yu panicked when he heard Ying Zheng's words.

Although he had been planning for the worst before, he secretly hoped that Qin would not accept the conditions of the envoy Wei.

Ye Yu closed his eyes and opened them again, collected himself, and replied, "I am a doctor of the Qin State, from noble to Zuo Shuzhang."

Ying Zheng unfolded the bamboo slips in his hand and put them on the table, glanced at them, and said bluntly, "The king of Wei is willing to exchange five cities for you."

five cities...

Ye Yu guessed that the King of Wei might exchange cities, but he felt that one or two cities would be enough. He Shibi only exchanged fifteen cities. Previously, Korea had only offered ten cities for peace after the defeat in the war. He alone conquered five cities.

If he hadn't paid attention to the occasion, Ye Yu would have made a dumbfounded expression. He never thought that King Wei would be willing to pay such a high price in exchange for him.

But at this time, Ye Yu couldn't back down. He once again rushed to Yingzheng to salute, and said in a firm tone: "I invite you to fight and go down to the five cities."

Although Qin State is not suitable for sending troops because of Zheng State's exhaustion of Qin's strategy and the need to recuperate, it does not mean that Qin State has to swallow his anger after being tricked by South Korea, for the sake of the country's face, and to contain more people like Zheng State As a spy, it is necessary for Qin to go to war against South Korea.

Ying Zheng looked at him and said, "How many soldiers, food and grass will it take for you to conquer the five cities?"

Ye Yu sat up straight and said: "I have heard a story, I wonder if you have heard it, Your Majesty. There was an old woman who raised a hen, which could lay a golden egg every day, and the old woman sold it. You can do nothing all day long, but one day, the old woman felt that there were golden eggs in the belly of the chicken, so she wanted to get it all at once, so she killed the hen."

He looked at Ying Zheng, "Your Majesty, do you think that old woman got the golden egg?"

Ying Zheng only said: "The chicken belly is so big, how much can it hide?"

Ye Yu said, "That's right, the old woman kills chickens to get eggs, An You gets as many as one a day?"

Ying Zheng said coldly: "Then how can you make the widow believe you?"

Ye Yu bowed for the fourth time and said: "You can tell if you are capable or not after trying it. The former minister ran to the king, was just a fledgling, and his eyes were higher than the top. He was just like Zhao Kuo. It was the fault of the minister. However, After one year in the army, I have already thought about it, not asking for the king's grace, but asking for a try."

Ying Zheng looked at him, Ye Yu is indeed much more mature now than he was immature a year ago, but if you look carefully, his appearance is the same as a year ago, so this kind of maturity is not brought about by the change in appearance , but a change in temperament.

Ying Zheng began to think.

Since the king of Wei can take out five cities, he really doesn't attach great importance to Ye Yu. At least he won't lose interest in the short term. That being the case, it's not impossible to evaluate Ye Yu's ability now.

Ye Yu nervously waited for Ying Zheng's result. He really wished that his eloquence was as good as those counselors of guest ministers, so that he might be able to persuade Ying Zheng on the spot.

Unlike now, when he looked back and thought about what he said just now, he felt that it was full of omissions, and he wanted to slap his clumsy mouth severely.

"Good." Just when his heart was about to rise to his throat, Ying Zheng finally spoke.

Ye Yu didn't react for a while, and stared blankly at Ying Zheng.

Ying Zheng took out a diabolo slip, took a pen to write down the content, and at the same time said to Ye Yu: "Now you are the commander of the army, and you will follow General Meng Ao to attack Korea."

After the seal was stamped, Ying Zheng asked his servant to pass the bamboo slips to Ye Yu, "Let's set off immediately."

Ye Yu took the bamboo slips, held his life-saving talisman in both hands, and saluted one last time: "Thank you, Your Majesty." He was so sad and happy that his voice trembled a little.

Ye Yu carried the life-saving talisman in his arms. Although there was still a big test waiting for him in the future, he felt extremely at ease now.

After returning, Ye Yu didn't even return to his own yard, and went directly to Li Si.

He wanted to tell Li Si about this as he said before, so that Li Si wouldn't worry about him.

"Tonggu." After being led into the lobby by Li Si's servant, Ye Yu shouted with a smile on his face.

Seeing his expression, Li Si knew that he must have solved the problem, so he immediately smiled and said, "Congratulations."

When Ye Yu sat down, he touched the bamboo slips in his chest. Li Si noticed his movement and asked, "I wonder if I can help you. What method did you use?"

Ye Yu took out the bamboo slip and handed it to Li Si, while explaining.

While listening, Li Si looked at the words on the bamboo slips, and his eyes stayed on the words "General Commander Shi" for a while, and then returned the bamboo slips to Ye Yu.

"Five cities, I don't think King Wei would do this."

Ye Yu also put away his smile and said, "Yeah, it's just one side..."

This is exactly what he can't understand. He doesn't believe in love at first sight. He has seen many beauties in his previous life, but he didn't like any of them.

Besides, even if you really like his appearance, but it's been a year and you still don't let him go?

If he didn't think that King Wei wouldn't be so brainy as to exchange five cities for an enemy, he would have thought that King Wei was planning to take him back to take revenge on him.

Thinking about his own experience, he felt overwhelmed. He was kind enough to save others, but in the end he was cheated miserably. It was worse than being raped. At least there would be no crisis of chastity.

It's okay if he didn't want to, but he felt a sense of crisis when he thought about it, he subconsciously moved his butt.

Looking up and seeing Li Si's suspicious gaze, he coughed lightly and said, "It's time for me to pack my things. Your Majesty ordered me to leave immediately, and I won't be staying soon."

"It's okay." Li Si nodded and said, "Do you want me to send someone to help?" Li Si also knew that Ye Yu usually had no waiters around him, and at most he only came to clean it regularly.

Ye Yu shook his head, "No need, there aren't many things in the first place."

Li Si stood up and said, "Wait a minute, let me toast you a glass of wine to see you off." As he spoke, he asked someone to bring wine utensils and poured two glasses of wine.

"I hope you will come back soon." Li Si said sincerely, holding up his wine.

"Thank you." With the corner of Ye Yu's mouth raised, he also picked up a bottle, and the two drank it down at the same time.

***

When Ye Yu was standing in front of the barracks, he heard the voice of soldiers chanting "Stupid and barbaric, the big country is against you..." while training. The familiar atmosphere really made his nose twitch. acid.

Thinking about what happened a few months after returning to the court, and comparing it to life in the army, he couldn't help sighing.

Sure enough, only the army is his affiliation.

The author has something to say: ① "Stupid and savage, the big country is the enemy" comes from "The Book of Songs·Xiaoya·Caijin", I think it is quite suitable for this attack on Korea.

This time it’s really not that Xiao Yezi is arrogant, but he has to say that, don’t forget that the background in the article is a slave society, and he didn’t expect King Wei to spend so much money at first, his original plan was to build one or two cities, this At least he has a bit of confidence (he knows more military theories than others, and has practical experience, and the city is also very important), but now he can only gamble.
