Although he disapproved of Hou Ying's rebellious "replacement" words, there is one thing Wei Wuji must admit.

Wei Wuji's elder brother Wei Wangyu is really too short-sighted and too mediocre.

Judging by the standards of a successful king, Wei Wangyu is already qualified.

But this is the Warring States period, an era of sailing against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat!

Wei Wuji felt that he had to do something, he had to prevent Wei Wangyu from making the decision of Lian Qin to destroy Zhao, which would be endlessly criticized by future generations, and pull Wei Guo back from that dark possibility!

So Wei Wuji decided to enter the palace immediately.

Wei Wuji's Xinling Lord's Mansion is not too far from the palace city of Wei State. After half an hour, Wei Wuji saw his brother Wei Wangyu in a side hall of Wei King's Palace.

When Wei Wangyu appeared in front of Wei Wuji, the expression on the face of the King of Wei was actually not very good.

After all, it was already nighttime now, and Wei Wangyu was still in love with Longyang Lord Gao Ji just now, when Wei Wuji's audience was interrupted.

No one will take a good look at the interrupter when he and his lover are interrupted, especially when they see Gao Ji's sad expression before Wei Wangyu leaves , the dissatisfaction with Wei Wuji in his heart increased more and more.

Men understand men better, so when a man like Gao Ji puts on a mournful expression, the lethality is even more terrifying than a woman acting like a baby.

But Wei Wuji didn't know about this matter, in fact, even if he knew, he wouldn't bother to pay attention to it.

In Wei Wuji's view, the fate of Wei State is much more important than the feelings of Wei Wangyu's male favorite.

Born as a seven-foot man, he doesn't want to wield a three-foot long sword to serve the king, but he goes to compete for favor and flattery like that woman's family, it's ridiculous!

After the ceremony, the two took their seats.

To Wei Wuji's surprise, Wei Wangyu actually took the initiative to speak.

Wei Wangyu turned to Wei Wuji and said, "Mr. Xinling is here for the sake of Changping?"

Wei Wuji glanced at Wei Wangyu in surprise, and nodded.

In fact, for the sake of the Battle of Changping, the number of meetings between the brothers has been significantly more recently than in previous years.

Generally speaking, when Wei Wuji started to bring up the matter of Changping, Wei Wangyu would have a very unhappy expression on his face, and then there would be a dispute between the two, and then the two would break up unhappy.

This kind of drama has been staged many times in the past few months, and it is almost a routine.

It is precisely because of this that Wei Wuji was surprised that Wei Wangyu took the initiative to bring up this matter, because it is rare for someone to take the initiative to bring up a matter that makes him very uncomfortable.

Wei Wangyu seemed to have thought of something happy, the original gloom on his face was instantly swept away, he showed a somewhat smug expression, and smiled at Wei Wuji: "Mr. Xinling, today the envoy of Qin came to visit the widow again , do you know what the Qin envoy and the widow said?"

Wei Wuji said, "I don't know."

Wei Wangyu laughed, and a strange expression flashed across his face. Although he paused obviously, he still said: "Mr. Xinling can hear about Zhao Wang's secrets, but he can't hear about widows' secrets?"

Obviously, although it has been several years, that incident still left enough shadow in Wei Wangyu's heart.

Wei Wuji lowered his head slightly: "I dare not."

"Don't you dare?" Wei Wangyu laughed, and gave Wei Wuji a meaningful look: "Unexpectedly, there are things in this world that Lord Xinling dare not do."

Wei Wuji lowered his head even lower.

There was a moment of silence in the side hall.

Although Wei Wuji lowered his head, he could feel that Wei Wangyu's gaze was always wandering on his body.

That gaze seemed a little scorching.

What was Wei Wangyu thinking?Wei Wuji didn't know, and didn't want to know.

After a while, Wei Wangyu finally spoke again: "The envoy of Qin came here with the words of Qin Wangji."

Wei Wuji raised his head and said, "What did Qin Wangji say to the king?"

A smug smile appeared on Wei Wangyu's face again, and he said to Wei Wuji: "The envoy of Qin told the widow that if the widow is willing to send troops to join Qin, Qin Wangji is willing to cede Tao County to Wei."

Tao Jun, this is the new condition Qin Wangji set up after discussing with Fan Sui and other important Qin officials in the Xianyang Palace not long ago.

Now, the envoy of Qin State conveyed this condition to Wei Wangyu, and from Wei Wangyu's mouth to Wei Wuji.

Wei Wuji's body shook, and he looked at Wei Wangyu in disbelief: "Tao County?"

Wei Wangyu nodded affirmatively, and the smile on the corner of his mouth raised several angles before he knew it: "It's Tao Jun. The Qin envoy has made it clear that as long as I am willing to send troops to join Qin, the day I send troops will be When Tao Commandery is returned to Wei State!"

Wei Wuji was stunned.

Qin Guo is willing to cede Tao County?

That's Tao County!

That Eastern Military Base of Qin State that can effectively clamp down on Qi and Chu and divide Wei State into two halves, that Tao County with a population of more than 20 and no less affluence than any other county in the world!

The importance of Tao Jun to the Qin State cannot be said enough in the last hour.

But such an important county was actually used by Qin Wangji as a condition for sending troops, and promised to Wei Guo!

This is really a big deal.

And what even Wei Wuji himself has to admit is that compared to the former Yuan Yong, the condition of Tao County offered by Qin Wangji now requires a lot of sincerity.

The condition offered by the people of Qin was so favorable that Wei Wuji had a lot of thoughts in his mind, but he couldn't think of anything to refute for a while.

Wei Wangyu looked at Wei Wuji with great interest, as if he was very satisfied with Wei Wuji's shocked expression.

To be honest, Wei Wangyu was really tired of the feeling that Wei Wuji gave Wei Wangyu every time he raised a different opinion.

Every time Wei Wuji objected, although the expression on his face was indeed respectful, it always gave Wei Wangyu an inexplicable pressure.

The appearance of this kind of expression seems to be Wei Wuji telling Wei Wangyu silently: "The wisdom of the king is not as much as Wuji. Let's listen to Wuji's words, and the way is right."

This feeling made Wei Wangyu very, very upset, because it always made Wei Wangyu feel like a fool.

No one likes being thought of as a fool.

It is obvious that the widow is the king, and the widow is the eldest brother, why do you Wei Wuji like to oppose the opinion of the widow every time, and you keep saying that it is for the good of the widow and for the good of the country of Wei!

You, Wei Wuji, know that it is for the good of the Wei country, but as the king of the Wei country, you don't know that it is for the good of the Wei country?

You must know that fighting a war is not something that you, Wei Wuji, can decide at will. War requires the mobilization of soldiers and labor, a large number of civilians, and a large amount of grain and money from the treasury of the State of Wei.

War needs to be harvested. If there is no harvest from the war, it will only waste the national power in vain!

Helping Zhao Guo sounds good, but what can I get after spending my national power to help Zhao Guo?
