Chapter 215 Drenched in Sweat
Chapter 215 Drenched in Sweat
Upon hearing Ying Zheng's words, the Black Ice Guard spy immediately felt a cold sweat break out on his back.
He never expected Ying Zheng to pull this stunt on him: Could it be that you are not one of the Grand Preceptor's men?
This sentence conveys a tremendous amount of information.
He quickly knelt down and said.
"I... I am naturally one of the Grand Preceptor's people. But... I still feel that the Grand Preceptor's behavior is a bit excessive."
"No! The Imperial Preceptor did not overstep his bounds; on the contrary, he did a very good job!"
Upon hearing Ying Zheng's words, the secret explorer of the Black Ice Platform fainted.
It's all my fault for being so talkative, or rather, for misjudging the relationship between Ying Zheng and Tang Yu, and for saying such things that made Ying Zheng feel disgusted with me.
Thinking about this, he even felt like dying.
However, Ying Zheng clearly knew that this lowly Black Ice Guard spy wouldn't dare to say or do anything, so he waved him away.
After leaving, the secret agent of the Black Ice Platform kept reminding himself of this.
Under no circumstances should we say a single bad word about the Grand Preceptor in front of His Majesty!
He realized that His Majesty and the Imperial Advisor were indeed closer than brothers, practically like one person.
Just as Ying Zheng was reprimanding the Black Ice Guard spies, Tang Yu had already arrived at the gathering place of the nobles of the six kingdoms.
Upon arriving at the gathering place of nobles from the six states, Tang Yu immediately thought of the State of Chu and asked his subordinates about it.
Where is the State of Chu?
"This this…"
Seeing his subordinates stammering, Tang Yu frowned, then suddenly realized that he had killed the nobles of Chu, and this meant another loss of income.
After thinking for a moment, Tang Yu shook his head regretfully and waved to his subordinates, indicating that there was no need to say anything more.
It seems I killed him too early. If he had died later, I might have been able to extort more money from him.
And so, Tang Yu swaggered in.
Upon seeing Tang Yu, the guards around the area immediately shouted nervously, "Who goes there!"
Then, when they saw Tang Yu's face clearly, a hint of fear and a trace of timidity flashed across his originally sharp features.
"It's actually the Grand Preceptor who's visiting! Please wait a moment, Grand Preceptor, while we go and inform him."
Tang Yu glanced at the guard and spoke calmly.
"What? How come I didn't know that you five noble families had such great influence that I needed to wait for you?"
"You should know that I can freely enter and leave even His Majesty's residence."
Upon hearing Tang Yu's words, the guards instantly broke out in a cold sweat.
They never expected Tang Yu to say that so directly.
With bitter expressions, they could only nod and say, "In that case, please come in, Grand Preceptor."
To be honest, they also wanted to carry out their boss's orders and keep Tang Yu outside.
But they knew that if they dared to carry out this order today, they would die today.
After all, who in the entire Qin Kingdom did not know Tang Yu's reputation?
Meanwhile, the nobles of the five kingdoms were gathered in the main hall, drinking and making merry together.
"Hahaha, if you ask me, King Zhao, you are still too cowardly. Moreover, you are truly the most disgraceful and the one who has let us down the most among all my kings."
Upon hearing this, King Zhao opened his half-asleep eyes instantly and looked at the man who had spoken with some confusion.
"Oh? In that case, King Wei, do you have something to say?"
"What do you mean by 'have something to say'? I think what you did was really despicable, it was absolutely inhuman. You've dragged us down to this point with you."
"how do I say this?"
The King of Zhao was somewhat puzzled, as he usually had an excellent relationship with the King of Wei.
Moreover, since everyone is a prisoner of Qin, why should they engage in internal strife?
Let's just stick together and support each other.
The King of Wei looked at the King of Zhao with a mixture of disappointment and frustration.
"Let me tell you, back when Ying Zheng was in your Zhao state, you should have sent someone to kill that brat Ying Zheng."
"If he's dead, then we're all safe now, right?"
"And what did you do? You let that brat Ying Zheng go back."
"Now he has become the First Emperor, who is at the height of his power, and has destroyed all six of our other countries. We are now imprisoned here, which is worse than being pigs or dogs."
He spoke in a very loud voice, and his heart was filled with pride. His words were full of contempt for Ying Zheng and the entire Qin state.
Tang Yu, who was outside, almost laughed when he heard this.
He truly didn't know who gave this doomed nation the courage to utter such arrogant and reckless words.
Is he really courting death?
After shaking his head, Tang Yu pushed the door open and entered, then clapped loudly.
"Clap clap clap clap..."
"What the King of Wei said is well said, what the King of Wei said is brilliant. If you ask me, if the King of Wei had come back then, perhaps there would be no His Majesty today."
Upon hearing Tang Yu's words of praise, the King of Wei did not turn his head and immediately spoke loudly.
“You are absolutely right, brother. I think you are a true confidant of the king.”
He had barely finished speaking when he turned his head and saw a face that he would never forget.
Yes, he saw the Imperial Advisor Tang Yu.
He saw Tang Yu's face, and on that handsome face was a cold smile, staring intently at him.
The coldness in his eyes almost froze the air itself.
Instantly, the King of Wei, who had been quite drunk, felt himself sober up. He stopped walking unsteadily and his speech stopped trembling.
He regained consciousness immediately.
He looked blankly at Tang Yu, then at the people around him, clearly thinking he was drunk.
"Is...am I drunk? Why is the Imperial Advisor here?"
"You bunch of useless idiots! Why didn't you inform me?!"
At this moment, it wasn't just him who was panicked; all the nobles from the five kingdoms looked at Tang Yu with extreme fear.
After all, Tang Yu had directly dealt with the original royal family of Chu, turning the nobles of the six kingdoms into nobles of five kingdoms.
This gives you an idea of just how prestigious Tang Yu was among the remnants of the six kingdoms.
Looking at the two figures standing under the table like quails in fear since he entered, Tang Yu curled his lips in disdain.
"Hey everyone, why aren't you drinking anymore?"
"I was listening outside just now. Weren't you all expressing your feelings and lofty ambitions, fueled by the alcohol?"
"Why did you all stop drinking as soon as I arrived?"
"It seems I have spoiled everyone's fun!"
"How about this, I, Tang Yu, will leave?"
Hearing Tang Yu's words, the nobles from the six kingdoms became even more worried, and they exchanged glances.
Then King Zhao stood up shakily and said, "Your Majesty the Grand Preceptor has misunderstood. This is truly a misunderstanding."
"We were so happy and excited to see the Grand Preceptor that we forgot how to get along with him. Please don't misunderstand, Grand Preceptor."
Tang Yu nodded upon seeing this: "If that's the case, then that's good."
