Chapter 15: Dissension grows

This court meeting ended with the victory of the main war faction.

As Wei Wei, the king of the country, and Gongshu Cuo, the prime minister, respectively expressed their attitudes, the issue of sending troops to attack Han and Zhao was already a certainty.

This also means that the war machine of Wei State will officially start.

However, not everyone was satisfied with the outcome of the court meeting. The faces of those courtiers who had previously opposed the meeting did not look good at the moment.

When Wei?'s figure slowly disappeared into the hall, and when the ministers began to leave the hall in twos and threes, Wang Cuo, the leader of the Lord Peace Sect, turned around and glanced back.

In the field of vision, Sima Gongsun Qi and Prime Minister Gongshu Cuo were walking side by side, and the expressions on their faces seemed to be very harmonious while they were talking.

Such a scene immediately gave rise to an unknown fire in Wang Cuo's heart.

"snort!"

A cold snort full of dissatisfaction sounded in the hall, and then Gongsun Qi and Gongshu Cuo saw Wang Cuo walking out of the hall without looking back.

Seeing Wang Cuo like this, Gongsun Qi wanted to say something but didn't know how to say it, so he could only turn his eyes to Gongshu Cuo beside him.

"I'm just a doctor because I'm not angry. Sima doesn't need to take it to heart."

After looking at Wang Cuo who had disappeared with an indifferent expression, Gongshu Cuo looked at Gongsun Qi with a more solemn look.

"This war is related to the dignity of our country Wei. Sima is in charge of the military, so he must pay more attention to it."

"Xiang Guo, don't worry, Qi understands."

After a conversation, Gongshu Cuo walked quickly outside the palace gate, while Gongsun Qi walked slowly on the road outside the palace alone.

After a long time, Gongsun Qi, who was walking slowly, arrived in front of the palace gate, where an old servant who had been with him for many years had been waiting for him for a long time.

"Why did Master come so slowly today?"

The old servant's words brought Gongsun Qi back to reality from his meditation, and the familiar old man and carriage in front of him gradually became clearer.

"Oh, I just have something on my mind."

After saying something perfunctory, Gongsun Qi slowly boarded the carriage in front of him, and then a calm voice appeared in the old man's ears.

"Uncle Bai, let's go."

"Okay, Master, you're done."

After responding loudly, the old man driving the car gently moved the reins, and suddenly there was a loud neighing sound from the horses.

Accompanied by the sound of rolling carriage wheels, the carriage slowly walked forward along the road in front of the palace gate until it disappeared at the end of the road.

Sitting on the somewhat bumpy carriage, recalling the scene at the court meeting just now, Gongsun Qi's face was full of contemplation.

To be honest, Gongsun Qi didn't take it to heart that what he just said might offend Dr. Wang Cuo.

Just as Gongshu Cuo said just now, the reason why Gongsun Qi fought with Wang Cuo was not because of personal grudges but for the sake of the state of Wei.

From the day when Wei Wei, as the king of the country, confided his ambition to him and asked him to choose to serve, Gongsun Qi had already made up his mind.

A scholar dies for his confidant. Since Wei? can reveal his ambition to him, so what if he uses his own life to help him achieve his great cause?

Therefore, Gongsun Qi didn't take Wang Cuo's bad feeling against him because of today's events at all. What he cared about was how to successfully fight the next crucial battle for Wei.

Now that Wei Wei and Gongshu Cuo have expressed their attitude, this war is already in front of us, and now we have to consider how to achieve the final victory.

The carriage kept moving forward while Gongsun Qi was deep in thought, until an obstacle appeared in front of it.

"Xu..."

Accompanied by a soft voice from the old man outside the carriage, the carriage suddenly stopped and Gongsun Qi was once again pulled out of the plan in his heart.

After waiting for a long time, the carriage continued to move forward. Gongsun Qi asked with some confusion: "Uncle Bai, what happened?"

"Master, there is an oncoming carriage in front of us. It seems to be the doctor's carriage."

When he heard that Doctor Wang Cuo's carriage was in front of him, Gongsun Qi did not hesitate much and immediately said in a deep voice to the outside of the carriage: "Uncle Bai, let him go first."

"Here."

Following the old man's whisper, the carriage Gongsun Qi was riding took the initiative to move out of the way for the other party, and then the sounds of horses hitting the ground appeared in his ears.

He gently opened the side curtain of the carriage and looked out through the opening of the side curtain. A familiar face appeared in Gongsun Qi's field of vision.

No surprise, this person was Wang Cuo, the senior official who had just had a conflict with him in the court.

Seeing the sudden appearance of Gongsun Qi in his field of vision, especially the still calm face, Wang Cuo, who was in the other carriage, became more and more angry.

"snort!"

Another cold snort appeared between the two, and then a look of disgust appeared on Wang Cuo's face, and then he directly lowered the curtain.

Listening to the sound of carriages moving behind him gradually, and recalling everything that had just happened in the court hall, Wang Cuo felt that he could not suppress the anger in his chest.

"Gongsun Qi, you, a betrayer of the Lord, how do you have the qualifications to rank with me in the Wei court?"

An angry curse rang out in the carriage, but Wang Cuo still felt unhappy in his heart. He wanted to use all his vicious words to insult Gongsun Qi.

In Wang Cuo's view, everything was Gongsun Qi's fault.

It was his persuasion in front of the Marquis of Han that caused his mission to fail; it was him who stood up when he was most proud and spoke with words that made him feel ashamed; it was also him who sabotaged the good plan he had finally thought of, allowing him to

The original plan to show his face in front of Wei? completely failed.

Today's new grudges in the court and yesterday's old grudges in South Korea have planted a seed called resentment in Wang Cuo's heart.

His hands were clenched tightly into fists, and the terrifying veins were so clear; his teeth were clenched together, and the sound they made was so loud.

"Gongsun Qi, if you don't avenge today's humiliation, my king will live in vain."

As the wheels of the carriage gradually moved away, a gap gradually widened between Wang Cuo and Gongsun Qi.



Along with the sound of footsteps in the palace of Wei State, a figure appeared behind Wei?, the king.

After a moment, Wei? turned back and looked at the figure, "Is what you just said true?"

"I don't dare to deceive you. I have indeed seen your superior and Sima break up on bad terms."

After listening to the palace servant's report, Wei? nodded gently.

"You go down first, and remember not to mention this matter to anyone."

"Here."

As the footsteps of this palace man gradually dissipated in his ears, Wei?'s eyes looked at the palace room in front of him again, and a touch of solemnity appeared on his face.

In fact, according to the monarch's consideration of balancing the dynasty, Wei Wei should be a little happy because of the fight between Gongsun Qi and Wang Cuo.

Because only when there is a conflict between his ministers can the monarch have room to exert himself. Once there is only one voice left in the entire court, the monarch will be in danger.

However, this does not apply to any situation. For example, now that Wei is about to face a war, Wei Wei cannot just sit back and ignore the discord between the two.

Thinking of this, Wei Hui immediately felt something in his heart.

"Here, prepare the car."
