Daqin: The Greatest Sage of Confucianism and Taoism

Wei Wuji politely returned the greeting. He was very dignified and waved and greeted people from time to time, as if he was interacting with friends.

The people present were immediately flattered, and many of them even had the urge to die for their friends.

However, what they didn't expect was that Wei Wuji actually bowed to the young man sitting by the window in the corner.

"Lord Xinling, Wei Wuji greets Mr. Su Xuan."

Chapter 29 Wei Wuji

Su Xuan looked surprised. He had never expected Wei Wuji to come to visit him on his own initiative.

As for why Wei Wuji knew that he had come to Daliang, we have to mention the seal and the imperial token.

The imperial seal was the identity card of that era. One needed to show the imperial seal for registration when entering or leaving the city. This was why Sima Shang found him so quickly.

"Greetings, Lord Xinling." Su Xuan quickly stood up and bowed in return.

Wei Wuji's reputation is much greater than his, and he is even known as one of the four great princes of the Warring States Period. Since he is so polite, Su Xuan will naturally not neglect him.

"I once heard my teacher tell me about Lord Xinling's respect for the wise and humble, but I didn't believe it. Now that I see it, I realize that I was too ignorant."

“I’m really ashamed.”

Su Xuan shook his head, his tone apologetic.

"I am not a wise man, and I am not worthy of Lord Xinling's personal visit."

"Sir, you are too modest. Your name is known throughout the seven kingdoms. Who doesn't know it?" Wei Wuji said seriously, "I have heard that the State of Zhao sent soldiers to hunt you down. Are you injured?"

"No." Su Xuan shook his head and bowed again.

"Thank you very much for your concern, Lord Xinling."

"Sir, you have just arrived in Daliang, so you probably have no place to stay for the time being.

Sir, you can stay in my mansion for a while."

"Wei Wuji has prepared fine wine and delicious food, and is waiting for you at any time."

He was extremely enthusiastic and treated Su Xuan like a celebrity.

Su Xuan sighed to himself, this is the benefit of having a reputation.

The reason why rumors spread in Zhao State was that he compared himself to Shang Yang and made himself famous. Otherwise, why would Wei Wuji pay special attention to it and even meet him in person?

Su Xuan naturally would not refuse his kind invitation.

"Please take a seat, sir."

Su Xuan looked over and saw Wei Wuji himself pulling the reins of the carriage, standing in the left seat and making a gesture of invitation.

Are you going to drive yourself?

In the past, Wei Wuji received the hermit Hou Ying from Dongmen with such etiquette. Su Xuan did not expect that he would enjoy such treatment today.

He really has a way of winning people's hearts.

Su Xuan secretly clicked his tongue. No wonder Xinling Jun had three thousand guests at his peak. Many of them were probably impressed by his respectful attitude.

Faced with Wei Wuji's invitation, Su Xuan politely declined.

It looks cool to see Wei Wuji driving, but if he really gets on the car, he would be comparing himself to Hou Ying, putting himself in a very high position.

He's not that stupid.

After a while, the two arrived at Wei Wuji's mansion.

Wei Wuji's mansion was very large, covering hundreds of acres, with magnificent buildings, carved beams and painted rafters, and extremely exquisite decorations.

In the courtyard for entertaining guests, fine wine and delicious food are prepared.

"Sir, please!" Wei Wuji had been leading the way before, but when they reached the gate of the courtyard, he stopped and let Su Xuan go first.

What's going on? Why are you so particular?

Su Xuan was a little uncomfortable with this. Being too particular was not a good thing sometimes.

The two walked into the courtyard and sat down.

"Sir, please try this Daliang wine.

Sir, you came from Zhaojiu, so you must have tasted the fine wine of Zhao. Zhaojiu is strong, mellow and sharp, with a strong aftertaste, while Daliangjiu is sweet and clear, with a mellow aroma and a different flavor. "

Wei Wuji introduced Su Xuan with a smile, and at the same time raised the wine bottle, "Please."

The two of them clinked glasses and after a few drinks, the atmosphere became much more familiar.

"Sir, you really have a good alcohol tolerance!" Wei Wuji clapped his hands and praised, "But how can we have only good wine without beautiful women?"

"Come here!" He clapped his hands, and several women came in one after another. They all had slim figures and beautiful looks, and were beauties picked out of a million.

They were dressed in colorful clothes, holding silk ribbons, and lined up in order and entered in sequence.

The leading woman held a zither in her hand and half covered her face. After she settled down in front of her seat, a graceful and soft voice suddenly rang out. The other women sang and danced gracefully, with slender waists, beautiful figures, and colorful clothes. They were like fairies dancing, bewitching people.

Indescribably charming and fragrant.

Su Xuan stared blankly at the leader.

She was wearing a goose yellow dress, her face was cool, her skin was white with a rosy glow, and her skin was as white as jade. She was kneeling on the cushion with her dress spread out in all directions, like a snow lotus slowly blooming on an iceberg, which could be admired from a distance but not touched.

Jingwei?

Is he here to assassinate Xinling Jun?

"I didn't expect that Mr. Su Xuan also loves the zither. If you like it, I will give this zither girl to you. You can listen to her playing the zither day and night. Isn't it a pleasure?" Wei Wuji chuckled and waved his hand to give Jingwei to Su Xuan.

The zither player in front of him was given to him by one of his retainers. Because of her beauty and extraordinary zither skills, he took her into his mansion.

In the past, he might have developed a liking for this woman, and it was not impossible for him to take her as his concubine. However, ever since the story of Prince Qian of Zhao spread to Wei, he became more wary of strangers and subconsciously kept his distance from Jingwei.

Now, among the seven countries, I have the greatest reputation.

In the past, he led the coalition forces of five countries to defeat the Qin army, making the Qin State lose face.

The Qin State had long hated him to the core and wanted to get rid of him as soon as possible, so it was very likely that they had sent Luowang assassins to kill him.

For his own safety, he not only strengthened his vigilance during this period, but also rarely interacted with strangers.

Giving Jingwei to Su Xuan is the best choice.

Not only does it help others achieve their goals and demonstrate one's magnanimity, it also eliminates a possible hidden danger.

"This, this is not a good idea?" Su Xuan looked embarrassed, just like someone receiving New Year's money.

"Mr. Su Xuan, just accept her with confidence. This zither girl has a clean identity, a good personality, and is talented. She is truly a rare beauty." Wei Wuji laughed. When he saw Su Xuan's appearance, he seemed to see his shy self when he was young.

Finally, he added, "Don't Confucians often say that a gentleman is a good match for a beautiful lady?"

"What Xinling Jun said makes sense." Su Xuan was quickly convinced by him.

He waved to Jingwei, and Jingwei quickly came over with lotus steps. Her eyes were cold and her face was beautiful, like the bright moon in the sky.

What an ice beauty!

Even Su Xuan couldn't help but sigh.

"What's your name? Where are you from?" Su Xuan asked casually.

"My name is Rushuang. I am a farmer from Niu Shou Village in Wei State. Since I was young, I was quite pretty and talented. I was adopted by Lord Jia and learned some music and dance."

"I was sent to your house by Lord Jia not long ago." She lowered her eyes and answered without thinking.

Judging from the appearance, it is obvious that he was well prepared.

"The Lord Jia she mentioned is one of my retainers and a famous businessman in the State of Wei," Wei Wuji added.

"Rushuang, come here and let me see you." Su Xuan patted the cushion on his right side.

Jingwei's eyelashes trembled slightly. She glanced at Su Xuan inconspicuously and sat obediently in the position he said.

"Turn your head around." Su Xuan continued.

Jingwei did as he was told.

Su Xuan stretched out his right index finger, lifted Jingwei's smooth chin, and carefully looked at that beautiful face in front of Wei Wuji.

Chapter 30: Frightened Salamander

She is clearly a stunning beauty, but she is described as only pretty.

Jingwei, Jingwei, if you say that, how can other women live?

Under close contact, Su Xuan saw Jingwei's brows slightly frowned, and a strange emotion emerged in his eyes.

Is this surprise? Or dissatisfaction?

Su Xuan had no doubt at all that if the scenario was different, Jingwei would definitely chop off his hand without hesitation and stab him with a sword.

But now in Wei Wuji's mansion, as a zither girl, she had to play her role well.

"Not bad." Su Xuan nodded with satisfaction.

"It's just a little too cold. Try smiling and see." He became playful and started teasing Jingwei.

Jingwei blinked her eyes. As a killer, if you ask her to kill people, she will be absolutely professional. But if you ask her to laugh, it will be a huge problem.

She lingers between life and death every day, and all she feels is the flash of swords and the fight of sabers. Emotions are almost non-existent to her.

She had seen others laugh, but she herself had forgotten how to laugh.

Because she seldom smiles, and in a killer organization, there is nothing that can make her smile.

At Su Xuan's request, she smiled, but her smile was forced and stiff.

Are you laughing? If you say you are crying, I am afraid people will believe you.

Su Xuan covered his face with his hands, speechless.

"Since Lord Xinling gave you to me, you will belong to me from now on, do you understand?" Su Xuan looked into Jingwei's cold eyes and said seriously.

Jingwei nodded her head slightly, and before she could react, a slender and strong arm had already wrapped around her waist. He gently embraced her with his arm, and her whole body involuntarily leaned towards his shoulder.

The two of them were standing shoulder to shoulder, with their heads only inches apart. If they turned their heads slightly, they could touch each other.

A masculine scent came towards her, and Jingwei's body stiffened slightly. Under close contact, her body couldn't help but produce a few strange feelings.

This guy is really too bold!

Aren't Confucians the ones who value gentlemanly conduct the most?

Generally speaking, one proceeds step by step, but he skipped the previous steps and got started right away.

"Rushuang, pour me some wine." Su Xuan turned his head and deliberately blew into Jingwei's ear.

He could clearly feel Jingwei's delicate body tremble. She stretched out her slender hand, picked up the wine bottle, and filled Su Xuan's glass with wine.

Looking at Su Xuan who was only concerned with flirting with Jing Wei and left him aside, Wei Wuji not only didn't mind, but instead smiled.

Over the years, he has recruited many followers, met all kinds of people, and summed up a truth.

In this world, no one can escape the temptation of money, power and beauty.

Wasn’t the King of Chu also bewitched and infatuated by the beauty Wei in the past?

Su Xuan likes beautiful women, and he can use this as a breakthrough point to recruit Su Xuan.

"Mr. Su Xuan is in such a refined mood." He picked up the wine bottle and shook it gently, reflecting a face with a smile on the corners of his lips.

"My Wei Kingdom doesn't have much in other aspects, but it has the most beauties. Mr. Su Xuan can stay for a while longer. With your ability and reputation, you will surely be favored by many beauties."

"Thank you very much for your kindness, Lord Xinling. I am planning to stay here for a few more days." Su Xuan agreed very readily.

But he didn't believe what Wei Wuji said about the country having the most beauties. Could Wei have as many beauties as Han?

Honglian, Zi Nu, Yan Lingji, Chao Nuyao, which one of them is not stunningly beautiful?

What can your Wei State compare with?

Jingwei sat next to Su Xuan, his eyes flickering slightly.

Staying longer would be beneficial for him to find an opportunity to assassinate Wei Wuji.
