In Zi Nu's boudoir, Su Xuan and Zi Nu snuggled together.

Zi Nu's skin was white with a rosy glow, and her hair at the temples was completely soaked with sweet sweat.

"In recent days, the dignitaries in Xianyang City have returned all the gifts we gave them." Zi Nu leaned on Su Xuan's shoulder, her long hair falling on his chest. "Many of them even prepared generous gifts. I hope you can forgive them."

Su Xuan nodded slightly. In order to quickly take root in various countries, the Violet Chamber of Commerce had indeed given a lot of money to these powerful people.

But is his money so easy to get?

Not only must it be spit out, but it must also be returned double. As for the dignitaries of the six countries, he was not in a hurry because they were still of use.

Besides, his money was just deposited with them. When the six kingdoms were destroyed, he would not only be able to take it back, but also collect their wealth as interest. Wouldn't that be great?

It has been three days since the meeting with Ying Zheng. On the second day after Lu Buwei resigned, Ying Zheng could not wait to summon all civil and military officials and officially announced the appointment of Su Xuan.

He became the new prime minister of Qin State, truly second only to the emperor.

"Before, we only sold paper because the huge profits from selling other commodities would attract the covetousness of the powerful. Even Confucianism might not be able to protect us." Su Xuan raised the corner of his mouth. "But it's different now. The backer behind us is the largest Qin among the seven countries."

"Perfumes, porcelain, sugar and other things can all be sold now." He paused for a moment, "As for snow salt, I will ask the King of Qin to set up a royal chamber of commerce, win over a group of Qin royal family members, and sell it under the unified leadership of Great Qin."

Zi Nu hummed lightly, her eyes lazy, and lay in Su Xuan's arms, not wanting to move.

"Lü Buwei has retired. We can take over all the business of the Lu Chamber of Commerce." Su Xuan's eyes flashed, and he thought of a piece of news he had just received recently. Lu Buwei was indeed restless and was secretly contacting envoys from the six countries.

He is really looking for death!

But even if Lu Buwei did not do this, Su Xuan would never let him leave Qin.

Lü Buwei controlled the military and political power of Qin for more than ten years. How much wealth did he have? The gifts given to him by those dignitaries must have been astronomical!

All this money is his money! All of Daqin's money!

If Lu Buwei wanted to abscond with the money, forget it!

He has been thinking about this money since he was in Zhao State.

Zi Nu glanced at Su Xuan with resentment, "My Lord Prime Minister, is there anything else you want to tell me?"

Su Xuan chuckled, "My wife has worked hard, how about I reward her? Massage her shoulders, legs, waist, and feet?"

As he spoke, his hand slid onto the soft object.

It is true that when you look at a mountain from the front you see a mountain range and a peak from the side; it looks different from different distances and heights.

"My Lord Prime Minister, I can't stand your torture. Please spare my sister." Zi Nu gave Su Xuan a helpless look. She was almost exhausted, but Su Xuan still looked energetic, as if he had just warmed up. Who could stand this?

"Sister Zinu, just obey me." Su Xuan buried his head in his arms and spoke coquettishly in a muffled voice.

He took a deep breath and couldn't help but sigh.

I don’t know the true appearance of Mount Lu, I just wish I were in it.

The curtains fluttered, raindrops hit the banana leaves, and there was another round of lovemaking, which made people very happy.

......

"Xuan Jian greets you, sir." Xuan Jian knelt on one knee with a respectful look.

"How are the preparations going?" Su Xuan asked lightly.

"During these three days, I have had people inform all the top-ranking assassins of the news. Now, all the top-ranking assassins in the Qin territory have returned." Xuan Jian answered truthfully.

Su Xuan nodded with satisfaction.

He would never let anyone else have the sword of Luowang. Only when he controlled it in his own hands could he truly sleep peacefully.

Having no sword in hand and having a sword but not using it are two completely different concepts.

After Lao Ai was executed by being torn into pieces by five horses and Lu Buwei retired, he mentioned the matter of taking control of Luowang to Ying Zheng. Ying Zheng agreed without even thinking about it. Su Xuan also heard from him that Zhao Gao had the same idea, but their status were not comparable. In front of Su Xuan, he had no chance.

Su Xuan gently stroked the Luowang token in his hand, with a thoughtful look on his face.

The token was completely black with a hint of red, as if it was soaked in blood. Two blood-colored characters were engraved on it, one above and one below, with a crack in the middle, like a natural moat, separating the two.

It is exactly the two words "heaven and earth".

Luowang was not founded by Lu Buwei. It has a long history and existed since the Spring and Autumn Period. The relationship between Luowang and Qin State was not so much a vassal relationship as it was mutual cooperation, with each side taking what it needed.

After some investigation, Su Xuan discovered that Luowang was far from as simple as it seemed.

What is most thought-provoking is Luowang’s impressive combat record.

The Legalist Wu Qi, Shang Yang, the strategist Gongsun Yan, the medical practitioner Bian Que, and the Mohist Meng Sheng, all famous figures in history, were killed by Luowang.

When Su Xuan saw this news, his first feeling was absurdity. He thought that Luo Wang might have deliberately exaggerated his battle record in order to recruit desperate criminals.

It didn't take long for him to reject this idea because there was a real case in front of him.

Lord Xinling Wei Wuji was assassinated by Luowang.

Moreover, this was internal case information of Luowang, so there was no need for them to fabricate it.

But he didn't quite believe that all these people were killed by Luowang.

In the original novel, wasn't the military strategist Li Mu also killed by them? But the old man was still alive and well.

I can only say that this record is quite exaggerated.

As for the token in his hand, it is the symbol of the Lord of the Net.

The people of Luowang don't obey the king's orders, they only recognize the token!

After Lu Buwei retired, he received this token from Ying Zheng.

Under the leadership of Xuan Jian, the two quickly arrived at Luowang's headquarters.

As soon as I walked into the hall, a chilly feeling hit me in the face. Dozens of cold gazes came over me, like wild beasts that suddenly opened their eyes in the darkness. There was no reverence for life in their eyes, and they looked over at me indifferently and mercilessly.

Su Xuan took a quick look and saw the figures of the six sword slaves in the original work, but Duan Shui was killed by him, so there were only five of them left.

Did you have top-notch strength ten years ago?

He frowned slightly, feeling a little confused.

As for the rest of the top-tier killers, their faces were relatively unfamiliar, and most of them wore Luowang masks, leaving only a pair of cold pupils visible.

The only familiar one is the Sunshade that has been fought several times.

"From now on, I am the master of Luowang." Su Xuan looked around the whole place and took out the Luowang token from his arms. "Do you have any objections?"

"Greetings, sir." The moment the token appeared, all the Luowang killers knelt on one knee without hesitation to welcome their new master.

Even if the sun is covered, it is still no exception.

"Very good." Su Xuan nodded with satisfaction. As they knelt, he stepped onto the throne of the Lord of Luowang and sat high on it.

He looked down at the dozen or so Luowang killers, and finally his eyes fell on Yanri.

"Yanri, I am very curious about what kind of face you hide under this mask." Su Xuan automatically adapted to his identity and ordered, "Take it off and let me see it."

In his previous life, he was very curious about the true identity of Yanri. Now, as the master of Luowang, he of course wanted to see it for himself!
