Zhang Weiyu and Lü Shu stood side by side at the entrance of the meeting hall, listening to the wailing inside. Zhang Weiyu said worriedly, "You're playing with fire. Your Majesty, you're underestimating the power of those great nobles."
"This is just one noble family. If the other great nobles come to an agreement, Wu Weijun's troubles will naturally be their problem. Why should I worry about this?" Lü Shu said.
"What if they can't come to an agreement with the other great nobles? What will you do then?" Zhang Weiyu frowned. "These great nobles are all very greedy. In their eyes, they are high and mighty. How would a small commander like you, Wu Weijun, dare to negotiate with them? So, I'm guessing that the conditions they're offering are about the same, and you won't be able to accept them. What will you do then? "
Lü Shu chuckled. "How long do you think this war will last?"
Zhang Weiyu thought for a moment and said, "Based on the ambitions of the Blackfeather Army, I'm afraid it won't end in a year."
"The Jianlu Selection will begin in half a year. Do you think those great nobles will dare to provoke a descendant of the Jianlu?" Lü Shu asked.
Zhang Weiyu was stunned. He didn't expect Lü Shu to include this in his plan. "The Jianlu has a high status. Even if a descendant of the Jianlu goes to the Emperor Of Heaven, the Emperor Of Heaven will treat him with respect. The great nobles won't dare to provoke him."
"So, before the war ends, if the Blackfeather Army can't do anything to us, what can the great nobles do to us?" Lü Shu laughed. "As long as the war doesn't end, no one will touch Wu Weijun. By the time the war ends, I'm afraid I'll already be a descendant of the Jianlu. At that time, who will dare to make things difficult for Wu Weijun? "
"So that's your plan. No wonder you dared to let Wu Weijun be in the limelight and offend those great nobles." Zhang Weiyu sighed. "I'm not as far-sighted as you are on this matter. Let me ask you a serious question. When did you start making this plan?"
Lü Shu replied calmly, "Just now."
Zhang Weiyu: "… I really can't overestimate your planning ability."
After he finished speaking, Zhang Weiyu looked back at the meeting hall to make sure that Liu Yizhao and Li Heitan didn't hear what he said about Lü Shu.
However, he agreed with Lü Shu's plan. If Lü Shu could really become a descendant of the Jianlu, then the problems that Wu Weijun was facing now would no longer be a problem.
However, Zhang Weiyu was puzzled. "When the time comes, all the geniuses in Lü Zhou will be gathered in the capital. Are you so sure that you'll be selected? Also, no one knows what the second test is about. How can you be sure that you can pass it? "
Lü Shu thought for a moment and said, "Have you ever thought of a question? Although I don't know what the second test is, does the Jianlu only select four people every year?"
"Yes," Zhang Weiyu said.
"If it really doesn't work out, have you ever thought of a possibility? For example, I can make it so that there are only four candidates left. Then, won't I be able to pass it no matter what?" Lü Shu said.
"Wait a minute. I know that you are very strong now, and your combat power is also very strong. However, after the first round of assessment, there will be 16 people left to enter the second round. You will not be able to meet these 16 people in the first round," Zhang Weiyu explained.
Lü Shu thought for two seconds. "Will this prevent me from fighting them in private?"
Zhang Weiyu: "… It won't."
"Negative emotion points from Zhang Weiyu, + 666!"
At this time, Lü Shu was a little emotional. Zhang Weiyu was still a good friend, providing him with a lot of negative emotion points every day. If he left Lü Zhou one day, he would definitely give this old fellow some Marrow Cleansing Fruit to eat. Although he didn't know if the fruit would help Zhang Weiyu's cultivation, it would be good if it could get rid of the impurities in his body.
And Zhang Weiyu suddenly felt that the day Lü Shu stepped into the capital would be a very interesting story. He didn't know what would happen, but inexplicably, he was looking forward to it …
That was the Jianlu, after all. At that time, the geniuses that Lü Shu would meet would be the well-deserved elites of the various armies. At that time, the big aristocrats would also buy spots for their own geniuses. They were all experts who were nurtured with a lot of resources.
Zhang Weiyu really wanted to know what would happen when Lü Shu met them …
At this time, the voices in the meeting hall had subsided. When Lü Shu walked in, he heard the big slaves saying with a sobbing tone, "Your Majesty, please spare us, this matter is really not up to us. We have to go back and report to our master before we can give you new conditions. What we said just now was really not a threat to you, please don't misunderstand! "
Lü Shu waved his hand. "Okay, go back and tell your master that Weibei Pass has been lost, it's too early to want a share of the cake. If they want to cooperate with me, Wu Weijun, they have to see if they have the qualifications. If they can't even beat the Blackfeather Army, they can forget about promoting me, Wu Weijun."
The meaning of Lü Shu's words was that he was already arrogant to the point of looking down on the Blackfeather Army …
The big slaves didn't dare to say anything now. The Blackfeather Army was, after all, one of the few elites, but they were actually looked down upon by a bunch of mud, Wu Weijun.
For a week, Lü Shu met with the envoys of seven aristocratic families. Without exception, none of them could come up with conditions that made Lü Shu's eyes light up.
Now that Lü Shu was not in a hurry to rely on anyone, he simply rushed back. In any case, the Blackfeather Army wouldn't make any big movements for a while. After all, if they sent more people over, would they still be able to defend Weibei Pass? The big aristocrats of the Nanzhou were still eyeing Weibei Pass covetously.
After the big slaves returned, the mood of the aristocrats became gloomy when they saw their bruised faces. "How dare a mere Commander Wu Weijun be so fearless? Who does he think he is? "
At this time, the big slaves urged with all their might. "Master, why don't we directly take down Weibei Pass? Wu Weijun's people were able to make the Blackfeather Army return in defeat. I think the Blackfeather Army isn't as ferocious as imagined. When we take down Weibei Pass, we can directly ignore this Wu Weijun. We can even send troops to encircle and annihilate them before the Emperor Of Heaven comes out of the pass! "
The aristocrat glanced at the big slave who spoke. "Get lost, useless thing. Is war as simple as you say it is? I know the strength of the Blackfeather Army. It's not that they are too weak, but that Wu Weijun has received guidance from an expert and is indeed very strong! "
The big aristocrats were not fools, nor would they be fooled by a few words from their slaves. They knew very well that if the Blackfeather Army were weak, they would not be able to take down Liyang Pass and Weibei Pass.
But this Wu Weijun was a little too strong now!
For a time, the news of Wu Weijun's change, as well as the fact that Wu Weijun had defeated the Blackfeather Army with a small number of people, slowly spread.
In less than a month, even the aristocrats of the Royal City were talking about this matter as an after-dinner topic. Defeating the many with a small number, defeating the strong with a small number of people, was always the most popular topic.
So … Wu Weijun became famous!
