Gao Wu Da Qin: You don't want your secret to be known, do you?

Chapter 119 Another open conspiracy! The layout bears a striking resemblance to that of an old friend of mine!

The first board meeting of the World Walking Foundation will be held soon. 🍭💘 ❻9ѕнⓊ᙭.𝐜ᵒм 🐒🍩

All sides held meetings at their respective bases to clarify their strategies and make final preparations for the upcoming major battle.

Hu Hai was very worried about Qin Feng as well.

"Mr. Qi, the Four Lords of the Warring States have formed an alliance!"

"The states of Korea and Yan were in cahoots!"

"Now, the Qin Dynasty is weak and isolated."

"If they unite and force us to hand over our positions as foundation presidents after the foundation closes today, what should we do?"

Hu Hai's words echoed in the VIP room.

Qin Feng sat to one side, sipping tea and sizing up Hu Hai. "What do you think should be done?"

Hu Hai pondered for a moment, then said, "I believe we should use force! This is the base of my Great Qin. If we just put a gun on their heads, they will have to acknowledge Qin's leadership!"

Qin Feng laughed, "Then you underestimate the six states! Today at the train station, the Four Gentlemen were making a huge fuss, with countless media outlets broadcasting live. They were announcing that they were in Qin, that they were right here. If anything happened to them, Qin would definitely lose face!"

"This also shows that they dared to come here prepared to die; death is no threat to these guys."

Hu Hai pondered for a moment, "If death can't threaten them, then let's use desire! In my opinion, it would be better to promise each person some personal benefits and then get them to agree to our position as chairman."

Qin Feng said, "Let's not even talk about whether they will accept our gifts. Even if they do, it would sacrifice the interests of the six states. The rulers of the six states would replace them and send new envoys. Wouldn't we then have to engage in new bribery?"

Hu Hai said helplessly, "Then, Mr. Qi, what do you think is the best way to break this deadlock?"

Qin Feng calmly stated, "Given the current situation, it's impossible to break through from within!"

Hu Hai was taken aback. "If we can't solve this, doesn't that mean we have to hand over the position of chairman?"

Qin Feng said, "Just because it can't be broken from within doesn't mean it can't be broken from outside."

Hu Hai said, "Please enlighten me, sir."

Qin Feng laughed, "When the tide turns, all conspiracies will vanish into nothingness! Being ruthless is the greatest strategy!"

Hu Hai didn't quite understand the meaning behind Qin Feng's words, but he still honestly replied, "This student has learned a lot."

At this point, Qin Feng took out a letter and handed it to Hu Hai, saying, "When our meeting ends, come in with this envelope, and I will be the chairman."

Hu Hai took the letter, nodded, and said, "Understood!"

Qin Feng stood up. "It's almost time. I'm going to have a fight! You wait here!"

Hu Hai said, "Please take care, sir!"

The World Walking Foundation's office building is magnificent, with a total of eighteen floors, symbolizing eighteen blessed lands.

The entrance was already crowded with personnel from the Lunar Security Forces. As celebrities from the seven countries walked by, reporters would hurriedly stop them for interviews.

"Hello! We are from the Linzi Evening News of Qi! Lord Xinling, what are your thoughts on this seven-state board meeting of the foundation?"

"As everyone knows, I, Lord Xinling, Wei Wuji, am a man indifferent to fame and fortune. Foundation meetings are routine business. And to this media friend, I must correct you on one point: this isn't called the Seven Kingdoms Board of Directors; strictly speaking, it's the Board of Directors of the Hundred Schools of Thought! I hope you'll be more careful with your wording in the future!"

"Your Highness, Lord Pingyuan, we are reporters from the Handan Science and Technology Daily of Zhao State. Do you have any opinions or suggestions regarding the first plenary meeting of the board of directors?"

"My stance? Of course! As a non-partisan individual, I represent the vital interests of the vast majority of the people of Zhao. I will certainly urge the acceleration of this meeting's progress to ensure that the World Travel Foundation becomes an aid to Master Meng, not an obstacle! The position of chairman should be awarded to the most capable!"

"Your Highness, do you believe you are qualified to run for the position of chairman?"

"I am a very humble and peaceful person. I don't care too much about whether I become the president or not. I am here just to do my part for the Master's Journey. If you recommend me to be the president, I will not refuse. If you don't recommend me, I won't mind either. I just want to do something for the people of Zhao. It has nothing to do with the position..."

One by one, the representatives entered the venue, and by the time Qin Feng entered, almost all the representatives from the six countries had arrived.

The large conference room contained seven chairs: three on each side and one on the east side.

Moreover, the chair in the eastern position is very special, heavy and luxurious, clearly the position of the chairman.

As the last representative, Qi Tian, ​​entered the meeting room, the door closed, and an unspoken tension filled the space. 😾♗ 🍟♟

The six people were already seated, sitting in two rows on the left and right, leaving two seats on the east and west sides. Each of them was staring at Qin Feng, seemingly waiting for him to choose a seat.

Qin Feng indeed walked to the chairman's seat. Everyone stared at Qin Feng, expecting him to sit down and then start criticizing him.

Qin Feng walked to the side of the seat, looked at the chairman's seat, and then looked at the six people in front of him. His eyes swept over each of their faces: the Four Lords of the Warring States, Shen Buhai, and Prince Dan.

Then, Qin Feng smiled and said, "I am Qi Tian, ​​a newcomer here. I greet you all, but I am aware of my limited knowledge, so I will not sit here. Please choose someone more capable to sit here!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Feng walked over to Prince Dan's side, flicked his right hand, and conjured a chair out of thin air, sitting down shoulder to shoulder with Prince Dan.

This whole thing has left everyone completely bewildered.

We've been preparing for so long, planning how to roast you, but then you suddenly said you're not going to be the president anymore. What are we going to do?

Who are we going to use the words we've prepared to attack?

Qin Feng simply quit, which left the representatives of the six states looking at each other in bewilderment. Everyone wanted to take the position, but no one dared to volunteer, since they weren't Mao Sui (a legendary figure known for his bravery and resourcefulness).

Even faster, Prince Dan, standing beside Qin Feng, said, "You guys choose a president; I'm not interested in being president."

As soon as Prince Dan spoke, Shen Buhai added, "South Korea is also not interested in the chairman."

Prince Dan and Shen Buhai announced their withdrawal from the battle. The remaining four gentlemen exchanged glances, realizing that only the four of them remained.

The original plan was for four against three, to show our brotherhood. After we beat the three of them, the four of us would discuss who should be the president.

Now things are much better. The other three have just given up and given up, and the four of us have made it straight to the finals.

After exchanging glances, the four lords of the Warring States period, led by Lord Xinling (Wei Wuji), took the lead and said, "In my opinion, the candidate for chairman must be fair and impartial, and skilled in both civil and military affairs. Among those present who are willing to be the chairman, only the four of us are qualified. Therefore, the candidate who meets the criteria of being fair and impartial, and skilled in both civil and military affairs, is none other than Lord Mengchang!"

Lord Mengchang hurriedly replied, "That's a misconception! Brother Wei, you're too kind. How could this be my choice? It should be you!"

Lord Pingyuan and Lord Chunshen, who were left behind, finally understood. "Damn it, you two are passing the buck, so what are we? You two should form an alliance!"

Lord Chunshen and Lord Pingyuan exchanged a glance and quickly formed an alliance to confront Lord Mengchang and Lord Xinling.

Suddenly, the hall was filled with the pleasant sounds of arguing.

In contrast to the noisy four, Hei Fu remained as quiet as ever, sitting with his eyes closed, meditating.

Qin Feng, on the other hand, stared intently at Prince Dan in front of him, making no attempt to hide his gaze on Prince Dan's face, which was even somewhat impolite.

Prince Dan is not young; in fact, one could say he is quite old.

His middle-aged appearance made him stand out from the young people here; he must have been from the same era as Ying Zheng.

According to unofficial historical records, when Ying Zheng was a slave in the State of Zhao, he had a brief encounter with Crown Prince Dan. At that time, Ying Zheng and Crown Prince Dan were good friends, but later they became enemies.

Whether the rumors are reliable or not is unknown, but it's clear that if he were with Ying Zheng, there would be many stories to tell.

Prince Dan noticed the strange look in this Master Qi's eyes and smiled slightly. "Dan, have I offended Master Qi in any way?"

"No," Qin Feng said with a smile. "His Highness the Crown Prince and I have never met before, so how could I have offended him?"

Prince Dan asked, "Then why are you staring at Dan so intently, sir?"

Qin Feng uttered a sentence, "Your Highness, you resemble an old friend of mine."

Prince Dan smiled slightly. "An old friend? Which old friend? Could you tell me about them?"

Qin Feng said, "His name is Old Monster Wang."

Prince Dan asked, "What did he do?"

Qin Feng laughed, "He's incredibly skilled, possessing extraordinary martial arts talent and being a master swordsman. In his hometown, he'd be considered second only to the best in the martial arts world!"

Prince Dan asked, "Such a powerful fellow is only second in the martial arts world, then who is number one? Is it you, sir?"

Qin Feng said, "I'm not from that place, so how can I be included? The first one is naturally his teacher!"

"He was a man who had the greatest compassion for the people, and his favorite pastime was punishing rulers who were not benevolent enough."

"He commanded the most powerful assassin organization in his hometown, and his reputation soared as his assassins killed more and more tyrannical rulers."

"One day, he discovered something: his assassins had begun to kill innocent people indiscriminately, and his reputation was starting to tarnish."

"He tried desperately to stop the assassins, but found that he was already beyond saving. 💝😎 ✋👽"

"Then, he had a thought: he would ruin his own reputation with his own hands; he began to kill innocent people indiscriminately; he became unscrupulous!"

"At this point, his assassins panicked. They relied on his nameplate for their livelihood, and now that he had torn it down, they tried to persuade him to stop his reckless behavior."

"But on the very day the assassin leaders came to see him, he took poison beforehand, leaving behind a suicide note saying that the assassins had killed him!"

"Upon hearing this, the heroes and warriors of his hometown instantly understood! He had not done anything malicious at all; he had never committed any evil deeds from beginning to end. It was all a conspiracy by the assassins and their subordinates. With no one to restrain him, the people drew their swords, and the assassins were reduced to ashes."

"Since then, his hometown has never seen another assassin, nor has it ever produced another martial arts master."

Crown Prince Dan narrowed his eyes, looking at Qi Tian before him. "Let's not beat around the bush; you seem to harbor a great deal of hostility towards me!"

Qin Feng rubbed his hands together and laughed, "Really?"

Prince Dan said calmly, "As far as I know, the biggest battle the Yan Kingdom's assassin alliance has faced recently was the siege of Wei Zhuang, the leader of the Quicksand Gang! Mr. Qi, you must be a friend of Wei Zhuang!"

Prince Dan's implication was: Are you trying to get revenge for Wei Zhuang? Are you Wei Zhuang's friend?

Qin Feng neither nodded nor refused, but simply looked at Prince Dan calmly.

This statement is essentially saying, "Regardless of whether I'm Wei Zhuang's friend or not, just tell me whether you were the one who orchestrated the attack on Wei Zhuang!"

For a moment, the two stared at each other, their eyes flashing with the glint of swords.

Qin Feng's words were very venomous. He almost used Wang Laoguai to tell the whole story of Prince Dan, and even arranged a dignified ending for Prince Dan in the end. It was as if he was saying, "My senior brother was almost killed by your people. I must avenge this!"

If you, Prince Dan, say this isn't your fault, then you should learn from the approach I've given you: even if you die, I can still publicly proclaim that you were right, and that everything was your doing!

If you insist it's your fault, that you ordered your men to do it, then we're officially enemies. Enough said, let's draw our swords!

Most people would have already flipped the table with Qin Feng by now.

But Prince Dan, who had seen countless storms and was perhaps even the leader of the Mohist school, simply smiled and uttered a question: "If a longsword cuts its master, is that sword guilty or innocent?"

Prince Dan's implication was that he had ordered the assassin alliance to attack Wei Zhuang, but he had never intended to kill Wei Zhuang. He was wrong, but the blame did not fall on him!

Qin Feng said, "If a sword cuts its master, it only means the master's skill is lacking; the sword is innocent. But people and swords are different; there is a distinction between them! A sword can be broken and reforged, but a person cannot disappear like a sword. Don't you agree?"

Qin Feng's meaning was also very clear: Wei Zhuang was seriously injured! That was a fact! Since it was a fact, then there was no need to talk about assigning blame; everyone involved should be punished! If you, Crown Prince Dan, really say it wasn't your fault, then it's simple: hand over the person, and I might be lenient with you!

Prince Dan looked at Qin Feng and said, "Those who love swords are bound to be wounded by them. If everyone were like you, fighting to the death with a single sword, wouldn't all the swords in the world deserve to die?"

Your friend Wei Zhuang isn't a clean person either. He's killed many people. Yesterday he could kill others, today others can kill him. It's no big deal. No one is more noble than anyone else! Human life is worth the same! Qi Tian, ​​don't cross the line! I, Prince Dan, am not someone to be trifled with!

Qin Feng smiled slightly, "I understand what the Crown Prince means. However, I must remind the Crown Prince of one thing: traveling the world is not just talk. It's not just about killing demons, but also about killing people—a lot of people indeed. I hope that Your Highness will still be as stubborn as you were when we were chatting today!"

Qin Feng's implication was, "Your Highness, don't be too happy yet. I can't do anything to you now, but Master Meng will eventually come to your Yan Kingdom. I'll expose all the messes your subordinates have made, and Master Meng will slap you to death!"

Prince Dan looked at Qin Feng and chuckled, "Who can say for sure about Master Meng's affairs! Just like the current chairman of the foundation, it was originally agreed that it would belong to Mr. Qi Tian, ​​but then it slipped away, haha!"

Qi Tian, ​​stop spouting threats! You think you can scare me? You can't even protect your position as president, yet you're encouraging Master Meng to take me down. Who do you think you are?!

Upon hearing this, Qin Feng did not argue, but simply held his teacup and smiled as he drank it.

The two made no attempt to conceal their conversation, which reached Shen Buhai's ears, causing his brow to twitch.

Shen Buhai had thought this was just a regular meeting to allocate simple rights and obligations, so why did it suddenly turn into a discussion about the second-best martial arts world, the common people, swords, and life-or-death struggles?

That doesn't make sense!

Before I came, the King of Korea assured me that this was just a tea party, a place to drink tea, eat snacks, and watch singing and dancing, and that there was absolutely nothing else to do.

So Shen Buhai came running, all excited.

If I had known this was so complicated, and both sides had adopted this life-or-death stance from the start, I would never have come.

The Legalists say that staying away from the crime scene is the only way to stay safe. It seems that in this room, the four gentlemen are fighting fiercely, while the remaining two, Qi Tian and Prince Dan, are still at each other's throats!

Surrounded by powder kegs, Shen Buhai began to have second thoughts. "If this doesn't work, I'll pretend to be sick and run away. This place is no place for a human to stay."

However, Qin Feng and Prince Dan were frozen at this moment. Both of them were respectable people, and they subconsciously wanted to find an outsider to act as their wingman, so they both looked at Shen Buhai.

Shen Buhai perked up instantly when those two stared at him at the same time, shouting, "Hey! Here I come!"

Qin Feng smiled and said, "I have long admired Lord Shen's name. I have heard that you once associated with Qin Feng, who is ranked first on the Astounding List. I wonder what your opinion is of Qin Feng?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Buhai cursed Qi Tian in his heart. "You bastard, can you please stop calling me by my name? I don't want to have anything to do with you two. I'm just here to watch the show!"

Shen Buhai said calmly, "Brother Qin and I hit it off immediately; the depth of our friendship is beyond what outsiders can imagine!"

Upon hearing this, Prince Dan instantly felt that he had a chance. Shen Buhai's words were a message to Qi Tian: "What's it to you what my relationship with Qin Feng is? Get out of my way! Don't try to sow discord between me and Qin Feng!"

Prince Dan seized the opportunity, saying, "Mr. Qi, who is Qin Feng? A chosen one of heaven, the charioteer of a sage! He is destined to become a saint on the spot! How could mortals even imagine such a thing!"

Qin Feng chuckled. "You shameless Crown Prince Dan! How dare you insult my humble origins and say I'm unworthy to mention Qin Feng! Do you even know that I am Qin Feng?"

Seeing that the two were about to start arguing about him, Shen Buhai quickly got up and said, "I'm going to the restroom. You two can continue!"

At any time, the excuse of needing to pee is number one, and Shen Buhai runs incredibly fast.

Qin Feng and Prince Dan watched Shen Buhai run away, then they looked at the four gentlemen arguing opposite them.

The situation for the Four Gentlemen was far more dire than that for Prince Dan and Qin Feng!

The four of them went beyond simple verbal communication; they even exchanged swift and powerful short-range physical greetings.

Judging from the current situation, Lord Xinling and Lord Mengchang have undoubtedly gained an absolute advantage. Their clothes were not torn. On the other hand, Lord Pingyuan and Lord Chunshen are in a much worse state. Not only were their clothes torn to shreds, but Lord Chunshen, Huang Xie, even lost a shoe.

The main battle now is the duel between Lord Mengchang and Lord Xinling, who will determine who is the chairman.

Lord Xinling was clearly shrewd and calculating, but Lord Mengchang was capable of breaking through the heavens with his martial prowess!

Lord Mengchang, being the most powerful of the Four Gentlemen, posed a formidable obstacle for Lord Xinling, with his formidable fists looming in his way.

Even if Lord Xinling talked himself hoarse, Lord Mengchang could easily shut him down with just one sentence: "I want to be the chairman."

The huge conference room was filled with a heated atmosphere, which lasted for an unknown amount of time until evening finally arrived.

At this moment, Shen Buhai, who had made an excuse to urinate, was already dozing off.

Qin Feng and Prince Dan drank tea and stared at each other, their eyes filled with murderous intent.

Among the Four Gentlemen, Lord Xinling's lips turned white and Lord Mengchang's fists trembled; both had reached their physical limits.

Finally, there was a knock at the door. "Mr. Qi, a letter from Master Meng!"

Upon hearing this, everyone present stopped fighting and looked towards the doorway.

The door opened, and Prince Hu Hai of Qin walked in cautiously. When Hu Hai saw the appearance of the bigwigs inside, he almost burst out laughing.

Qi Tian asked irritably, "Where's the Master's letter?"

Hu Hai said, "To be precise, it's not the Master's letter, but the letter from the Master's coachman, Qin Feng!"

Shen Buhai, standing to one side, laughed and said, "What's the difference? Everyone knows that the coachman is with the teacher! Whatever the coachman says or whatever letter he writes, the teacher will definitely review it!"

"Yes!" Lord Xinling agreed. "Does the coachman's word mean the Master's? Is Qin Feng pleased that we've established this Traveling the World Foundation? Quickly, bring the letter here!"

Hu Hai placed the letter on the table. "Gentlemen, please read this. Hu Hai takes his leave!"

The door closed, and Qin Feng raised his hand. "Shen Jun is an old friend of Qin Feng's; why don't you see what he wrote?"

Shen Buhai was overjoyed. As Qin Feng's old friend, he certainly had to give him the respect he deserved!

Shen Buhai picked up the letter and read it aloud, "I am Qin Feng, a wandering scholar."

"Upon learning that the various schools of thought had established a foundation to support the Master's travels throughout the land, Qin Feng and the Master were overjoyed. The Master said, 'The people of the world are truly kind-hearted!'"

Upon hearing this, everyone's faces lit up. There was no other reason than that Master Meng's praise was an acknowledgment and recognition, showing that Master Meng cared about everyone!

Shen Buhai then continued, "I, Qin, am now by your side, receiving the teachings of the sage. I have made great progress recently and have learned a phrase: 'The world belongs to all.'"

"I'm sharing this word with you all today."

What does "the world belongs to all" mean?

"Some say that the Duke of Zhou spat out his food to welcome guests, and the world turned to him."

"However, the Duke of Zhou's vision was ultimately too narrow; he was only concerned with the Zhou royal family, not the world."

"If you want the world to be a community with a shared future, you must be selfless and inactive! Lao Tzu was absolutely right about that."

"Unfortunately, Lao Tzu only practiced non-action, but failed to be selfless."

"To understand what selflessness truly means, we must first understand what selflessness is—it refers to personal gain and interests!"

"In Qin's view, the more burdens a person carries, the more personal interests they have, and the more personal interests they have, the less likely they are to be selfless."

"Walking the world is inherently a selfless act, and if a foundation is established for this endeavor, there should be no instances of seeking personal gain!"

"Therefore, Qin Feng believes that the selection of personnel for the World Walking Foundation needs to be cautious. It is better to use unknown people rather than famous people."

"Of course, you can all take my words as nonsense. After all, the foundation's affairs are a collective effort across the seven kingdoms and the hundred families. I, Qin Feng, am just a young boy. How can I be compared to you all?"

"Qin Feng, farewell!"

After Shen Buhai finished reading his words, everyone looked at Qi Tian.

Qin Feng said he wanted an unknown person, which means that means it's Qi Tian?

After all, everyone here has a prestigious background, while you are just an unknown nobody.

Qin Feng hurriedly waved his hands, "Why are you all looking at me! I'm not suited for this position! You little brat Qin Feng, talking nonsense, that's unacceptable!"

Upon hearing this, Shen Buhai angrily retorted, "My old friend Qin Feng is the top scholar in all three categories, a man of great integrity and loyalty. He now travels the world with Master Qin, a disciple of the Sage. How can he be spouting nonsense? You have all heard the principle of public good! Such fair words and such just principles, sir, please do not refuse!"

Shen Buhai expressed his support, and the defeated Lord Pingyuan and Lord Chunshen immediately perked up, saying, "Lord Shen is absolutely right. Young Hero Qin Feng has already explained, so we don't need to say anything more. You're the one!"

Lord Xinling, glaring at Lord Mengchang's fist, said resentfully, "Yes! I agree too!"

Lord Mengchang sighed, "Me too!"

Everyone looked at Prince Dan.

Prince Dan was determined to kill Qin Feng, but you couldn't object, since everyone else had agreed.

Prince Dan said calmly, "The strategists are mostly petty and narrow-minded. If we fail to follow Qin Feng and Master's arrangements today, the foundation's operation will likely face many problems in the future! For the sake of the bigger picture, I agree that Mr. Qi Tian should become the chairman!"

Qin Feng rubbed his hands awkwardly. "I originally had no intention of getting involved in the chairmanship, but since everyone insists, I have no choice but to accept it. I hope you will all continue to support me in the future!"

The eyes of the other six, except for Shen Buhai, were filled with thoughts: "Give you support? We'll see if we can destroy you!"

You may have the luck to get the position, but whether you have the ability to actually sit in it is another matter! We'll see how things unfold!

Seeing Qi Tian's hand-rubbing gesture and his shy expression, Shen Buhai's worldview was shaken and his heart was filled with turmoil.

Why is this Mr. Qitian's expression and tone exactly the same as my old friend's?

He had the same demeanor when he met and spoke to me!

and many more!

Shen Buhai's overall thinking.

This Qi Tian, ​​since entering the venue, has avoided everyone's attacks, saying that he has no intention of becoming the president. In the end, Qin Feng openly and secretly designated him as the president, which means that he knows Qin Feng!

They had planned this in advance!

This is a completely open conspiracy!

In addition, this letter was written by Qin Feng!

Qi Tian's behavior is very much like that old friend!

A bold idea popped into Shen Buhai's mind.

Qi Tian is Qin Feng!

Qin Feng is none other than Qi Tian!

This bastard is making a fool of everyone!

Shen Buhai's fist, hidden in his sleeve, clenched slightly.

If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't beat this guy, Shen Buhai would have loved to punch him in the nose!

Let him know that people shouldn't play games with people!

Marrying a woman through proper channels is just following the trend to become an immortal, everyone. Don't be afraid, I've just moved the book from my alt account back to my main account. Feel free to check out my many completed and excellent books!
