Chapter 257 Playing
This mask had been used against Xiang Yu several times before, its sole purpose being to make Xiang Yu believe that the identity of the Grand Tutor Tang Yu was himself.
The others looked at Tang Yu and didn't see anything unusual.
But now, for the first time, he's using this mask against someone else.
He designed it so that when the King of Wei looked at him, he would see a face that bore an eight or nine-tenths resemblance to Xiang Yu.
However, Xiang Yu and Zhang Liang showed no sign of anything unusual when they looked at him.
At the same time, a wicked smile appeared on his lips.
Because he knew a good show was about to begin.
Xiang Yu, carrying his Overlord Spear, approached the King of Wei, his tone icy cold.
"King Wei, I never imagined that you would die by my hand today."
Listening to Xiang Yu's words, the King of Wei shook his head repeatedly as he looked at the corpses scattered on the ground.
"Xiang Yu, Xiang Yu, I had heard of your bravery and martial prowess before, but I never imagined you were so outstanding."
"But it's a pity that you're not one of the nobles of our six kingdoms, but rather one of that villain Tang Yu's men. It truly breaks my heart."
"Ah, I'm one of Tang Yu's people?"
Xiang Yu was somewhat bewildered.
After all, he was somewhat bewildered from the very beginning of today's battle.
I really don't understand why the King of Wei would want to be his enemy.
He repeatedly claimed that he was colluding with the Qin state and referred to the imperial advisor Tang Yu.
However, in order to cover up his secret and seeing that the King of Wei had already sent someone to assassinate him, he couldn't help but take action directly.
But now he's realized something's not right.
Could there really be a misunderstanding here?
He looked at the King of Wei before him and said in an icy tone, "Speak, what exactly happened today?"
"Although you're going to die no matter what you say, at least I'll let you explain yourself."
Upon hearing Xiang Yu's words, the King of Wei finally realized what was happening.
That's not right. Logically speaking, if the other party really was one of the Grand Preceptor Tang Yu's people, I would already be dead by now, no matter what.
The other party wouldn't give me a chance to explain myself, could there be some misunderstanding?
The old man and the young man were of one mind. After exchanging a glance, they both saw a strange look in each other's eyes.
At this moment, King Wei was also startled. Could it be that there was still a chance to turn the tide today?
Or is there still a chance to kill the Grand Preceptor Tang Yu?
King Wei felt happy upon thinking of this.
He looked at Xiang Yu in front of him and sighed.
"Alas, Xiang Yu, you are unaware of the truth."
"I originally did not intend to make contact with you today, much less fight with you, but what I originally wanted to kill was that wicked Imperial Advisor Tang Yu."
At this point, King Wei pointed directly in the direction where Tang Yu was.
Tang Yu was standing with Zhang Liang at that moment.
Tang Yu kept his head down and didn't say anything, while Zhang Liang looked completely bewildered.
Then, looking somewhat bewildered, he glanced at the King of Wei.
“King Wei, although I, Zhang Liang, am from the state of Han, it is rather inappropriate for you to call me the Grand Preceptor Tang Yu. After all, we are allies of the nobles of the six states.”
Seeing Zhang Liang's performance, King Wei shook his head.
Pointing to Tang Yu, who was standing to the side with his head down, he slowly said, "But I wasn't talking about you, I was talking about him."
"He is Tang Yu, the Grand Preceptor of the Qin State."
At this moment, King Wei understood the reason for his conflict with Xiang Yu.
As soon as the King of Wei finished speaking, Zhang Liang and Xiang Yu exchanged a bewildered glance.
"What? Zilong is actually the Imperial Advisor?"
"Old man, do you have any evidence to prove your claim?"
Zhang Liang was also completely bewildered, and he looked at Tang Yu beside him with some nervousness.
Could it be that my infiltration plan is about to end today?
But the next moment, Tang Yu raised his head and looked at King Wei, slowly saying, "Why do you say that I am the Imperial Advisor Tang Yu? Do you have any evidence to prove this?"
However, when he raised his head, what he revealed was not his own face.
In the eyes of the King of Wei, he revealed a face that bore an eight or nine-tenths resemblance to Xiang Yu.
To Xiang Yu and the others, Tang Yu still had the same face as Zilong, without any abnormality.
So at this moment, King Wei was originally very confident, and even had already seen Tang Yu's death, but in an instant he panicked.
"What? You...you're not Tang Yu!"
"You are Xiang Yu!"
Xiang Yu, who had already begun to doubt his brother Zilong's identity, turned even darker upon hearing this.
He looked at the King of Wei with a very unfriendly expression.
"Old man, are you crazy? I'm right here, that's my good brother Zhao Zilong."
At this moment, the King of Wei's eyes darted between Xiang Yu and Tang Yu, revealing a series of expressions of horror and disbelief.
At the same time, he kept shaking his head.
Impossible, absolutely impossible, what on earth is going on?
Could it be that Xiang Yu was the Grand Tutor, and the Grand Tutor was Xiang Yu?
What... what exactly is going on?
Ultimately, under the questioning gazes of Xiang Yu and Zhang Liang, he became somewhat mentally impaired.
He looked at Xiang Yu and said in a low voice, "I know now. You are the Grand Preceptor. The Grand Preceptor is you, and it has been you from beginning to end. Xiang Yu alone has tricked the people of the six kingdoms."
"Ah, I get it now, Xiang Yu was the real strategist, hahaha..."
Seeing the King of Wei already rambling incoherently, Xiang Yu's face finally turned even darker.
He could tell that the old man had gone mad.
So he didn't hold back at all, raising his Overlord Spear and ending the old man's life with a single shot.
At this moment, Zhang Liang looked at Tang Yu with a look of horror.
He never imagined that Tang Yujian could break through such a seemingly hopeless situation on his own.
Then Tang Yu must have divine abilities.
He also believed the King of Wei's words.
The King of Wei looked at Tang Yu and realized it was definitely Xiang Yu's face; otherwise, the other party wouldn't have said such a thing.
……
"This……"
"Brother, who exactly is this old man? What did he mean by what he just said? Brother, are you the Imperial Advisor Tang Yu?"
Seeing Tang Yu's somewhat puzzled expression, Xiang Yu didn't know how to explain.
After all, how can one prove their identity?
He then shook his head speechlessly: "This old man is really crazy. First he said you were the Imperial Advisor, then he said I was the Imperial Advisor. Why doesn't he say that Zhang Liang was also the Imperial Advisor?"
Tang Yu and Zhang Liang exchanged glances and nodded.
After some discussion, the three of them decided to have the bodies of the King of Wei and his other subordinates transported to a mass grave outside the city.
