Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 373 Lu Buwei

Since Concubine Yan's visit, Gu Xun had a peaceful life for a few days, and he was very leisurely every day. However, the medical clinic gradually improved, and there were only a few patients in a day.

As expected, Mo Ya and Bai Feng left the Xianyang area with Que Xie's people and went to other areas of the Qin State to continue to eliminate the remnants of Luo Wang's old forces, but Gu Xun did not ask them where they went.

It didn't matter to him where he went.

In this way, time came to mid-July smoothly.

The atmosphere in Xianyang became more and more tense. The courtiers who were loyal to Wenxinhou Xiangguo Lu Buwei, the courtiers who were loyal to the King of Qin, and other miscellaneous people were secretly running for their respective masters. In this weird atmosphere, the crown ceremony of the King of Qin was , prepare little by little.

The list of accompanying officials, the selection of the escorting guards, the necessary material preparations, and the layout of various places along the way were all carried out in an orderly manner under the arrangements of Lord Changping and others.

Marquis Wenxin, who was supposed to preside over this crowning ceremony, was unexpectedly silent for many people.

Both the King of Qin faction and the Prime Minister faction were very concerned about this. The former was worried that Lu Buwei had a secret conspiracy, while the latter was worried that his master would really be seized of power and decline.

But these are things that only pawns would think about. The real bosses have some ideas in mind.

The storm is about to come, but the real storm has not yet come...

………………

South bank of Weishui River, South Street.

South Street, which has always been lively, is even more noisy today, but it is not the increase in passers-by or business travelers, but the influx of a large group of soldiers.

They are all elite soldiers wearing armor, holding weapons, and armed to the face.

Guarded by a whole team of elite soldiers was a luxuriously decorated carriage, but the most eye-catching thing was not the carriage decorated with gold rims and pearls, but the horse pulling the carriage in front.

Five tall horses with snow-white coats.

According to regulations, only princes are eligible to ride on this five-horse carriage.

Nowadays, the only people in the world who can be called princes are the kings of the Seven Kingdoms, uh... I can barely count Weiguo.

As for those nobles with fiefdoms, although they have titles, they are not conferred by the Emperor of Zhou, so they are not considered princes. Their treatment is still calculated as "Qing" and they can drive four horses.

However, there is one exception in the Qin State, Lu Buwei, the Minister of Wenxin, whose status is equal to that of the princes. .

In the entire Qin State, he was the only one with a carriage of five horses - Ying Zheng's carriage of six horses.

The Zhou Dynasty was completely destroyed, rituals and music had long since collapsed, and the kings of the seven kingdoms proclaimed themselves kings. Of course, their treatment level was on the same level as that of the emperor.

Of course, bosses like them can go beyond the rules, but the people under them cannot.

There is no doubt that the five-horse carriage represents the powerful Prime Minister Lu Buwei sitting inside.

The large team of people marched along the street and arrived at the entrance of Guxun Medical Center.

Even Gu Xun, who was sitting in the room, could feel such a big formation, and the sound of neat footsteps was very loud.

Gu Xun, who was lying on the lounge chair, looked out through the open door and saw the five-carriage frame and the guards guarding the frame.

Hmm...Looking at this posture, the person who came here is of high power and status!

Gu Xun looked at the carriage and the people, muttering to himself.

However, he didn't stand up from the recliner and go out to greet him. He didn't care who he was. If he wanted to see a doctor, he would just come in by himself.

At this time, the driver jumped out of the carriage, carried a small stool to the carriage frame, then opened the carriage curtain and helped the people inside out.

From this, Gu Xun could clearly see the appearance of the carriage owner - his face was slightly longer, with old and dull skin, obvious and fine wrinkles across his forehead, his cheeks were slightly loose and drooped, and his beard and hair were They are all half black and half white, with mixed colors. A high crown is tied with two silk ribbons, and the hair is tied up high. They are wearing a purple-rimmed mysterious suit. His face was solemn and his expression was cold and stern. Generally speaking, he is an old man of about sixty years old with a solemn face and a strong aura.

Judging from his appearance, he is not an easy person to get along with.

Gu Xun commented casually in his mind out of boredom.

He still didn't recognize this face, but he had a guess in his mind.

The nobleman who traveled with such great momentum and would come to his theoretically unknown medical clinic was none other than Wenxin Hou Lu Buwei.

The servant driving the car next to Lu Buwei seemed to be coming in and telling Gu Xun to go out to greet him, but Lu Buwei stopped him.

After giving some instructions to the people around him, he stepped into the medical center alone.

Walking very steadily, he walked into the medical center step by step.

After coming in, he was not in a hurry to speak. He simply looked around, then looked at Gu Xun, and started the conversation with a casual question:
  "Are you Doctor Gu?"

"Well, Gu Xun." Gu Xun nodded in response, then pointed to the seat in front of the counter, "Old sir, please sit down first."

Lu Buwei did not refuse and sat down.

Gu Xun saw him sitting down and asked proactively:

"I wonder if it would be convenient for you, sir, to tell me your name?"

"I... Lu Buwei." Lu Buwei did not conceal his identity and directly confessed his identity. His voice fit his appearance very well, with a dull and serious aura.

Gu Xun nodded, as if that was the case, and did not pretend to be surprised. He hugged his chest with both hands and continued to ask calmly:

"It turns out to be Lu Xiangguo."

"I wonder why Xiang Guo suddenly came to this small medical clinic in Gu? To treat a disease?"

Lu Buwei still had a serious look on his face. Following Gu Xun's semi-ridiculous question, he replied in a deep voice, "Then I'll trouble Dr. Gu and let me take a look."

As he said that, he passed his right hand forward and placed it on the counter, as if he was waiting for Gu Xun to take his pulse, as if he really came to see a doctor.

"Ha!" Gu Xun raised his eyebrows.

This old guy has something he doesn't want to tell you yet... It doesn't matter, just see a doctor, just to earn some money for medical expenses.

Unhurriedly, he reached out and pinched Lu Buwei's wrist, carefully feeling the other person's pulse while observing the other person's face with his eyes.

"Xiang Guo's pulse is quite stable and strong, and his body and bones are quite healthy, but his complexion is not very good and his face is gray. He hasn't had much rest recently, has he?"

"Insomnia?"

Lu Buwei quietly stared at Gu Xunhui, who was watching him, and did not answer his question immediately.

He hasn't been resting well recently, and he can't get better. Not to mention his inner restlessness, just paying attention to the movements of Ying Zheng and Lao Ai consumes a lot of his energy.

You must know that he is mainly handling state affairs at present. This is not an easy job.

Fortunately, judging from the current situation, Lao Ai's chances of winning seem to be good. Ying Zheng did not find any small moves on his side, and the situation is developing in the direction Lu Buwei expected.

However, he still has to eliminate some uncertain hidden dangers as much as possible, and Gu Xun is the biggest one among them.
