Chapter 170 Nie will not protect someone like you
"Waiting outside, why are you causing trouble?"
He casually threw out the three secret guards who were halfway into the carriage, and relying on his superb martial arts skills and courage, Ying Chengjiao slipped into the carriage.
The three secret guards who were thrown out without any power to resist, fell to the ground, and Ying Chengjiao’s figure could no longer be seen outside the carriage.
Young Master's martial arts skills are so high...
The three of them looked at each other and consciously stood outside the car.
"Master Guowei, don't sleep anymore. Playing dead won't solve the problem. Get up and let's have a good chat."
After arriving at Wei Liao's side without any trouble, Ying Chengjiao sat down cross-legged as if he was familiar with the place. Judging from his skillful movements, it was not the first time he had done this.
In fact, it was true. He had ridden in many four-horse carriages.
The specifications, furnishings and layouts of the palaces owned by King Zhaoxiang of Qin, King Xiaowen of Qin, King Zhuangxiang of Qin and Qin Shihuang are all the same.
Wei Liao's breathing was steady and there was no sign of waking up.
Ying Chengjiao became impatient.
His night attack on Wei Liao was not to kill him, but to give him a warning.
I have the power to kill you at any time. Be honest, don't provoke me, and don't always think about doing bad things.
In the face of absolute crushing power, all strategies are useless.
Now Wei Liao said nothing, lying here pretending to be dead, with no intention of communicating with him at all. This brat Ying Chengjiao really wanted to kill him.
"If you don't wake up, I'm going to kill you."
Ying Chengjiao's voice was cold and there was obvious murderous intent in his eyes.
The three secret guards outside the carriage felt the chill and shivered. One could imagine how Wei Liao felt inside the carriage.
But Wei Liao remained motionless, as if he felt nothing.
I actually fainted.
Ying Chengjiao frowned.
When Wei Liao heard his threat earlier, he didn't say anything, and one could say he was just pretending.
However, Ying Chengjiao's murderous aura was revealed, and the person he was targeting could not have no reaction unless his martial arts skills reached a certain level.
Ying Chengjiao didn't have the antidote for the drug on him, and was about to ask the three secret guards beside Wang's car for it.
Suddenly I noticed that the Wei Liao lying in the carriage was different in size and height from the Wei Liao I usually saw.
A strange look flashed in Ying Chengjiao's eyes. He touched Wei Liao's face, and the touch on his hand made him frown even more.
Ordinary people cannot feel any difference between this and real human skin, but Ying Chengjiao can tell that this is a human skin mask, an expensive item that Qingmei and Dingxiang have worn for a long time.
The internal force surged to his fingertips, and Ying Chengjiao tore off a layer of plastic wrap like tearing off a fruit.
Under the face that originally belonged to Wei Liao was a face that Ying Chengjiao was somewhat familiar with.
It was the driver who carefully drove the four-horse royal chariot that day and spoke up for Wei Liao.
The human skin mask can only make it difficult to distinguish the real from the fake in appearance. In order to conceal the truth in front of the ministers, the imposter must be someone who is very familiar with Wei Liao.
With his eyes slightly narrowed, Ying Chengjiao was very surprised, very surprised.
It turned out that Wei Liao was not in the four-horse carriage, and he found a driver to impersonate him. Ying Chengjiao had never thought of this.
"Someone come up."
A secret guard lifted the curtain and came in.
"What do you want, sir?"
"Wake him up for me."
"only."
The secret guard came forward and was shocked when he saw in the candlelight in the carriage that the face was not Wei Liao's.
The secret guard shuddered, and immediately controlled himself so as not to show any abnormality, and fed the driver the antidote.
After half a cup of tea, the secret guard poured a cup of cold water on the driver's face.
The driver shook his head slightly and opened his confused eyes.
Before his eyes could focus, he heard the fearful voice of his master.
The voice was cold, cruel, and emotionless, more terrifying than the executioner's beheading knife.
"Tell me where Wei Liao is, and I'll leave you with an intact body."
The driver's body seemed to be shaking. He was so scared that he slowly shifted his gaze.
Until Ying Chengjiao came into his sight, the last glimmer of hope in his heart disappeared, and fear filled his entire mind.
Wow~
On a silent night, in a quiet carriage, the slightest sound will be amplified infinitely.
Ying Chengjiao looked in the direction of the sound and saw that the driver's originally fresh and dry lower body robe quickly became wet and stained a dark color.
A faint fishy smell wafted out, causing Ying Chengjiao's face to twitch.
The driver was scared to death.
"Change his pants!"
Ying Chengjiao got off the car angrily.
…
Xianyang City, Xianyang Palace, Zhangtai Palace.
Wei Liao, who was being looked for by Ying Chengjiao, was standing outside the Zhangtai Palace, waiting to report to Zhao Gao, the First Emperor.
He should have retired and returned to his hometown, but he appeared here and met with the First Emperor late at night.
After a while.
The First Emperor agreed.
Wei Liao did not look directly at Zhao Gao who brought him in.
Although he now has no official position and Zhao Gao is one of the Nine Ministers, Wei Liao still acts as if his official position is still higher than Zhao Gao's and he looks down on him.
Zhao Gao gritted his teeth outside the Zhangtai Palace, but once he entered the palace, he immediately relaxed and said very respectfully, "Your Majesty, Wei Liao is here."
"Let him in."
"only."
Zhao Gao held out his hand and led Wei Liao in, and Wei Liao walked in proudly.
Inside the room, the First Emperor was reviewing memorials under candlelight.
Next to him is a ruthless robot that flips and folds memorials, and Gai Nie, who is unwilling to do the work of issuing seals and talismans.
"I really didn't expect that you would return to Xianyang City and come to see me."
Wei Liao did not bow either, but put his hands behind his back in a very gentlemanly manner.
"Warfare is the art of deception."
Gai Nie couldn't help but look up at Wei Liao.
There are not many people who can talk about fear of death in the art of war and have a thick skin like you.
Wei Liao's expression changed.
When the First Emperor did not ask any more questions, Wei Liao spoke without courtesy.
"Mr. Gai has a strong character, sword-like eyebrows, and bright eyes. I am quite good at face reading. Judging from his face, Mr. Gai should be a man with noble aspirations and firm beliefs."
Upon hearing this, Gai Nie was also very rude and nodded without the First Emperor saying anything.
"You are very accurate."
Wei Liao was choked and his words were stuck for a moment.
He thought Gai Nie would not answer, or would ask the First Emperor for permission before answering.
This contrasts with the fact that he ignored the First Emperor's words, which shows his pride.
He didn't expect Gai Nie to reply so naturally and quickly, as if it was always the case in the past .
"Mr. Gai is a genuine person with a pure heart, which is precious. Wei Liao and Mr. Gai hit it off right away. I wonder if I can have the honor of inviting Mr. Gai to visit Kuaiji."
The First Emperor placed the brush on the gap of the inkstone, looked at the smile on Wei Liao's face, and felt like laughing.
Whether it was attacking the six kingdoms, entering the palace to advise, or retiring and returning home.
Wei Liao's plans were all successful, and this time when he came back, he deceived everyone.
No matter whether his opponent was the Six Kingdoms, the First Emperor, or Ying Chengjiao, Wei Liao never lost, and he always achieved his goal in the end.
But this time, his opponent is Gai Nie, a man who does not play by the rules.
"You are different from Nie. Nie is not as hypocritical as you. You said that soldiers are all about deception. You obviously came back because you were afraid of death. I invited Nie to go to Kuaiji to save your life. You have no noble ambitions, no faith, and a false character. You don't have a pure heart. Nie will not protect someone like you."
Wei Liao: ...
