In Zhangtai Palace, Ying Zheng changed into dark red clothes and leaned against the couch. He had already taken off his duties as king, and his hair was simply pulled up on top of his head, but his aura was not to be underestimated. Zhao Gao came in

At that time, with a respectful expression on his face, he came close to Ying Zheng and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, Queen Mother Xia is here." It's just a small title, but it can be seen that Zhao Gao knows how to seek good luck and avoid evil, which Meng Ao and others have never had before.

Before calling him "King", Zhao Gaoke also called him "King" like others. Although both titles describe Ying Zheng, their meanings are quite different. Although "King" is respectful, it invisibly shows that he is still young.

It is not considered that he has fully assumed the position of King of Qin. Now that someone has changed his mind, it can be considered that someone has truly recognized the position of Ying Zheng from his heart.

Ying Zheng raised the corner of his mouth. Hearing Zhao Gao's words, he put down the bamboo slips in his hand, narrowed his eyes, and sneered: "Oh?" He decided to use troops against South Korea tonight, and I'm afraid Xia Ji came to investigate.

of

Before he finished speaking, Xia Ji's loud curse came in from the other end: "Zhao Zheng, you little thief..." Then came the panicked voice of the waiter, and Xia Ji's arrogant scream,

A sneer hung from the corner of Ying Zheng's mouth, and he leaned on the couch without even getting up. The waiter outside did not dare to stop Xia Ji. He bent over and grimaced, but she still broke into Xia Ji's mouth.

She kept yelling and cursing, and when she saw Ying Zheng's cold eyes when she came in, she was stunned for a moment, and then felt a burst of embarrassment and anger: "Zhao Ji, how dare you launch troops against South Korea, you..."

"Shut up!" Ying Zheng's eyes flashed coldly. He stood up and walked towards Xia Ji. He was tall and tall, and he was condescending. When he saw Xia Ji's face turned pale, he sneered: "The Queen Mother Xia is so rude.

Could it be that she is sick? If so, I can call the palace doctor to treat the Queen Mother." When Xia Ji heard what he said, she was not afraid and became even more angry: "Zhao Zheng, do you know who I am?"

"Then I would like to ask Queen Mother Xia to tell me who you are?" Ying Zheng didn't take her attitude seriously, but laughed wildly. Xia Ji was very domineering and made Ying Chu unhappy.

He was extremely dissatisfied with his biological mother and did not mention her status even until his death. Now Ying Chu is officially recorded as the legitimate son of Mrs. Chu Ji Huayang. Even if Xia Ji is his biological mother, in real terms, the two have nothing to do with each other.

, Xia Ji is, at best, just an unpopular concubine left behind by King Xiaowen. Her sons have all changed their surnames. If the old rules persist, they should be buried with Ying Zhu. If Ying Zhu was more cruel back then,

She has turned into a pile of withered bones so far, so how can she yell with herself here?

"you!"

At that time, she didn't even take herself to heart. She only wanted to please that bitch Chu Ji. Now that she has grown up, she will not take orders from her. She only regrets that Qiong Xu was useless back then and didn't even kill this little thief.

Xia Ji was filled with hatred for leaving herself with today's disaster, but as if Ying Zheng didn't know what happened back then, she scowled and ordered fiercely: "The old woman was born in Korea, don't you know?"

"So what?" Ying Zheng clasped his hands behind his back, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and his murderous intention was released inadvertently, making Xia Ji's back shiver, but thinking about the crisis in South Korea, she puffed her chest out and said: "Han Nai

This is a country of old women, so the idea of ​​attacking South Korea is not feasible!"

"Have you forgotten, Queen Mother Xia, that you are just the Queen Mother of the side palace? Zheng usually respects your elders and is very tolerant, but it is not the Queen Mother's turn to have any say in matters involving the outer court!" Ying Zheng looked at her coldly.

Taking a look at Xia Ji, she saw that this woman was already old. She did not have the beauty of an ordinary concubine, nor the charm of Chu Ji, the Queen Mother of Huayang. Her appearance was just average but with a hint of sternness in the corners of her eyes. With such an appearance, it was no wonder that Ying Zhu was not chosen in the first place.

Like it, she gave birth to a son but couldn't keep it, and was sent to Zhao State as a hostage. Now she is revealed to be the Queen Mother. Not to mention that Ying Zheng still has an unsettled grudge with her, it is Ying Zheng's mother Zhao Ji.

, as long as he offended Ying Zheng, he would never forgive him, let alone Xia Ji! How could she change her decision so easily based on just a few words? What a joke!…

Xia Ji was so stimulated by his indifferent look that she couldn't help but tremble. After listening to his harsh words, the disdainful smile on Ying Zheng's face made her feel furious. Then she thought about her son who died young. If it weren't for Zhao Ji,

The thief woman had ignored his body and wanted to be happy, so how could she let him die young at a young age, so that now she had no support? When she thought of this, Xia Ji felt that all the old and new hatreds were rushing into her heart.

She screamed, and raised her hand to slap Ying Zheng. Ying Zheng narrowed his eyes, a bloodthirsty look flashed across his face, and grabbed her wrist fiercely. His palm was extremely strong, and Xia Ji was older.

The woman was not very strong, so Ying Zheng immediately held her wrist. Xia Ji immediately felt as if she had a shackle on her wrist, strangling her wrist tightly, as if her bones were about to break, wailing.

He stood up and said, "Traitor, why don't you let the old woman go!"

Ying Zheng ignored her, and his hand became stronger. Xia Ji felt even more severe pain at that moment. Looking at Ying Zheng's icy eyes, she became really scared. She thought that she was really reckless this way, so she just thought

Ying Zheng wanted to do something bad to her, but Ying Zheng looked at the people brought by Xia Ji coldly, with murderous intent in his eyes: "The Queen Mother Xia is unwell, and you didn't know how to dissuade her. Instead, you encouraged the Queen Mother to move around. The palace people who came here today

The chamberlain, no matter who he is, will be beaten to death!"

"How dare you!" Xia Ji couldn't care less about the pain in her hands now. She was really distressed. The people Xia Ji always brought with her were her true confidants who had followed her for many years. Ying Zheng beat him to death now.

, isn’t it going to tie her hands and feet? Xia Ji was in a panic, but Ying Zheng sneered repeatedly and ignored her. When Zhao Gao saw this situation, he made a quick decision and quickly agreed, shouting at several waiters who came in to take Xia.

All the people brought by Ji were tied up. Xia Ji was immediately dumbfounded. The palace servants under her hands were all pale and pale. Some of them started to cry, but they looked at Xia Ji with hope in their eyes and did not ask for mercy.

Apparently he thought she could save his life

Ying Zheng ignored him. Zhao Gao had directly asked the servants to tie these people out. After a while, the sky-shaking cry came from far away from the square outside Zhangtai Palace. The distance was no longer

It was close, but because there were so many people crying and there was deathly silence in Zhangtai Palace, I could hear clearly. With the bursts of crying and begging for mercy, Xia Ji's face became whiter and whiter than paper.

, Ying Zheng then pushed her hard and let her fall to the ground with a "bang". Listening to the cries outside, which gradually became louder and quieter, and gradually lost her breath, she straightened her clothes slowly and sneered.

Said: "If the people around Queen Mother Xia do not serve you wholeheartedly, I will definitely serve you well if I respect you for twenty days and serve you!"

Xia Ji suddenly turned even more pale. She had already heard the meaning of Ying Zheng's words. Not only did she not only have an arm around her, but she also sent his spies to her side to monitor her. No matter how evil he was to her in the future,

, surrounded by his people, who would believe it? Xia Ji felt cold in her heart for a moment, and looked at Ying Zheng speechless. She came here with great pride, but she did not expect such a result in the end.

In the past, he sent many women to Ying Zheng's side, but now she is also tricked by him, and Ying Zheng's methods are even more ruthless. It is directly because she has been excepting the people around her these years, because she is not convinced by Ying Zhu's doting on Mrs. Huayang.

, fought with her all his life, and at the end of the day, his son was snatched away by Chu Ji. He was unwilling to accept it and devoted himself to his grandson. Unexpectedly, his grandson did not get the throne in the end, and now he has ended up like this.

Ying Zheng saw her look ashen and coldly sent her back. A stream of blood flowed outside the Zhangtai Palace Square. Everyone knew that the Queen Mother Xia was disrespectful to the king, but the king was magnanimous and did not care about her. Instead, another person

After sending a capable servant to send her back, Ying Zheng's reputation became even better, and his reputation as a virtuous and filial piety spread far and wide. Xia Ji, who had dominated the palace for a while, gradually became quieter...

Once word spread that Ying Zheng was planning to send troops to South Korea, and Xia Ji failed to do anything about it, the Korean envoy became really scared. He didn't know many people in Xianyang City, and Chang'an Jun Chengqiao only knew how to spend the day and night in the Qin Kingdom.

I couldn't say anything. The only plan now was to rely on Lu Buwei as Xia Ji had said before. So the Han envoy tidied up, had people prepare a carriage, took gold and silk treasures, and headed towards Lu Buwei's mansion. Once they arrived,

Lu Mansion, he cried and complained that Lu Buwei had already received the news when Ying Zheng decided to use troops. Just now he felt that accepting the two beauties who originally belonged to Ying Zheng was like a slap in the face.

, feeling extremely proud, but what Ying Zheng did at this moment was more like a heavy blow, which suddenly blinded him.

The Korean envoy was still crying and sad, and Lu Buwei was already feeling extremely aggrieved. He had actually entered the palace once before Ying Zheng decided to use the army that day, but he always treated him with great respect, calling Ying Zheng his father-in-law.

This time, he did not give him face. He only said that South Korea had insulted people too much. If he did not repay this revenge, he would not be a husband. He blocked the rest of Lu Buwei's words with one sentence. He had to go back to the house in frustration. At this time, he was already half-dead with anger. He listened to Han again.

The envoy kept claiming where the king's move would put him. He felt more and more that Ying Zheng was older now and could not tolerate him. As soon as he sent the Korean envoy away, Lu Buwei's face darkened. Li Si and others saw this and knew that he was doing this.

The fire was burning, so everyone fell silent for a moment, and no one spoke.

"Shuzi is hateful!" Lu Buwei slapped the table hard, and swept the cups and other items on the table with his wide sleeves and swept them to the ground. The wine, meat and other items inside were all spilled out except for the rolling bronze cup.

Several Confucian scholars frowned in unison. Seeing Lu Buwei acting so rude, he was indeed unworthy of elegance. With such a character, and if he couldn't even control his temperament, how could he negotiate big things in the future? Everyone disagreed in their hearts.

, but felt a little alienated from Lu Buwei. Only Li Si's eyes flashed with disdain, but he respectfully stepped out and handed over his hand: "Lord, calm down."

"How can I calm down? This traitor Zhao Zheng humiliates me like this. It's really hateful!" Lu Buwei's face was ferocious. He called Ying Zheng by his name in the house. It was no longer a once-in-a-while thing. As Ying Zheng got older,

, the hidden secrets of the two people's struggle for power gradually emerged. Ying Zheng took over the Qin State, which was justified. However, Lu Buwei had been in business for many years and had experienced the feeling of one person being inferior to ten thousand people. How could the two of them be willing to let go?

It is inevitable for them to fight overtly and covertly, not to mention that it was Lu Buwei who originally instigated this matter, intending to slap Ying Zheng in the face, so these things happened. All the counselors were dissatisfied, and seeing Lu Buwei's virtue, they felt faintly

If something went wrong, once Li Si spoke, with the leader in charge, the rest of the people started to persuade him: "Lord, please calm down. The king is getting older and is in the prime of his youth. It is not a big deal that he can do this."

Unexpectedly, it was Korea that was doing something inappropriate, and it has nothing to do with you, my lord. We think it is better to send those two women to the palace and present them to the King of Qin to show my lord your loyalty."

"That's unreasonable!" Lu Buwei was furious. Before the man could finish speaking, he shook his head decisively and said, "Sir, there is no need to say anything more. I will not agree to this!" He sent the beauty back to the palace to express his gratitude to Ying Zheng.

With the intention of surrender, Lu Buwei still couldn't lose this face and didn't care that the scribe was blocked by him. His face turned red. He lowered his head and thought for a while, with a cold light in his eyes: "I entered the palace to see the Queen Mother Zhao!"

It is safest for Zhao Ji to talk about such a matter. She is Ying Zheng's biological mother. If she makes an excuse to say that she does not want to go to war with Lin Guo at this time, Ying Zheng will definitely listen to her. Even if it is superficial, at least he will.

Do it, otherwise, if you have just been known as the most virtuous and filial person, and now you are disobeying the Queen Mother, even the King of Qin will be afraid of the ridicule of the world!

Lu Buwei was full of confidence and immediately asked someone to hitch a carriage. He didn't even change his clothes and went directly to the palace, leaving Li Si and others looking at each other. How could the Empress Dowager Zhao still do things for Lu Buwei now that she was devoted to pampering her fake servant Lao Ai?

Everyone has doubts in their hearts, but thinking about Lu Buwei's appearance of having a pearl of wisdom just now, no one dares to say anything to touch Lu Buwei's brow, even though they know in their hearts that Lu Buwei's fate is not going well.

Li Si saw everyone's unpredictable expressions, pursed his lips proudly, bowed his hands to everyone, and exited first.

Lu Buwei entered the palace proudly, and the carriage went smoothly. Unexpectedly, the carriage was stopped in front of the Lanchi Palace.

"Master Xiangguo, the Queen Mother is busy with important matters at this time. I'm afraid she won't have time to see you..." The waiter gritted his teeth and stopped Lu Buwei's carriage. At that moment, Lu Buwei's face was horrifying, and his eyes were so fierce that he seemed to be here.

The waiter's body looked like two holes had been poked out. The waiter's face was pale and his legs were shaking slightly. However, he resisted Lu Buwei's pressure and said with a pale face: "The Queen Mother has important matters at this time, and the Prime Minister is not as good as

Come back another day”
