Chapter 17 Assassination of Yingzheng Prelude
"The Queen Mother is here!"

"The King is here!"

"The concubine welcomes the queen mother, and welcomes the king!"

Following Zhao Gao's voice, he shouted.

In an instant, the entire Linquan Palace was in a panic.

The maids who were adding firewood to the burning incense burner were in a hurry and accidentally added some more spices.

"Free gift!"

"Thank you Queen Mother, thank you Your Majesty!"

Mrs. Xia, who is about forty years old.

It's gotten pretty old.

Not only is there no feeling of being a milf on the face, but the charm is still there.

On the contrary, many wrinkles appeared.

Plus.

She was skinny.

resulting in.

The skin on her face complements the wrinkles, making her even more skinny.

kind.

It makes people look uncomfortable.

No wonder.

Later, as soon as Zhao Ji came back from Zhao State, Ying Zichu immediately made Zhao Ji queen.

Nima.

Whoever has been with Mrs. Xia for a long time.

When you come out and see a normal woman, you will feel pretty, right?

and many more!

Li Lin immediately thought of a question, why did Ying Zichu marry such an ugly Mrs. Xia?
Is it an arranged marriage?
or
Is it the wife appointed by the Empress Dowager Huayang?

If he doesn't marry, he can't become her son?
Probably!

No wonder Mrs. Xia has such a good relationship with the Empress Dowager Huayang.

It turns out that there is a relationship here.

"Sister Xia is being polite!"

Zhao Ji raised her mouth slightly, and Lan Hua pointed out the layout of the palace, "I didn't expect that sister Xia's palace would become lively not long after the late king's funeral? It's so festive, why did you invite so many guests here? ah?"

"Empress Dowager Wang, this minister is Gan Luo, Minister of the Shaofu, who was invited by Mrs. Xia!"

"Yes, yes, we were all invited by Mrs. Xia!"

"Oh? Ganluo?"

Zhao Ji seemed to have heard this name before, and was somewhat familiar with him, "Gan Luo, you should not be in the treasury, guarding the treasury for the king, what are you doing in the harem? ?”

"The empress dowager, the humble minister has repeatedly declined, but this Mrs. Xia is too polite, and she is the widow of the former king, with a noble status, I dare not refuse!"

Seventy-eighty-year-old Gan Luo has gray hair.

I don't know how many storms and waves I have seen in my life, but at this moment, I am extremely flustered.

Obviously, he was afraid of being hated by the Queen Mother.

So that the words are a bit messy.

"hateful!"

Mrs. Xia had a three-point smile on her face, a pair of snow-white hands were not exposed from the sleeves.

On the contrary.

Two hands wrapped around a piece.

As if she didn't want people to see her true feelings at this time.

"Okay, okay, here you are, Aijia is not a stingy person! Since you are here, please take your seats first! Remember next time, you are not allowed to leave your post without authorization!"

"promise!"

"The ministers would like to follow the teachings of the Queen Mother!"

Seeing everyone trembling with fright with a smile, she knew that tonight's performance was enough, so she looked back and smiled, and said lightly: "By the way, sister Xia, are all the people here tonight?"

"Ma'am, everyone is here!"

Mrs. Xia dared not speak out, she dared not show any dissatisfaction.

On the contrary, he squeezed out a little smile, respectfully.

This formed a sharp contrast with the aggressive Zhao Ji.

Ying Zheng saw this situation.

They couldn't help but shook their heads.

Ugh!
To deal with this kind of person in the deep palace, why did the queen mother use the method of a street hooligan!
Not only would this not make Mrs. Xia feel great pressure from power, but it would also make her feel further humiliated.

As a result, hatred and differences continue to widen!

Although Ying Zheng knew that his mother was wrong to do so.

But there is no way.

After all, she is her own mother, even if she did something wrong, no one else can refute it!

Li Lin suddenly understood such a smart Ying Zheng.

Why did he make so many enemies in his youth?

Dare to love!

It's not that Ying Zheng was so ignorant, arrogant, and ignorant of etiquette when he was young.

But his mother is too brainless!
Ugh!
I really feel sorry for Ying Zheng.

Zhao Ji in history may not be as unbearable as Sima Qian wrote, but the matter with Lao Ai is estimated to have some clues in all likelihood.

In other words.

Zhao Ji really cheated her son without discussing it!

He made countless enemies in his early years.

In his later years, he made a few more younger brothers to fight for the throne, and even helped his lover to rebel against his son.
Fortunately, Ying Zheng is smart enough.

Coupled with the luck of the Chosen One, he can advance and retreat freely in the face of this series of setbacks!
"Then let's sit down!"

"Thank you, Queen Mother!"

"Thank you, Queen Mother!"

all of a sudden.

The whistling sound of the officials overwhelmed the noise of the entire Linquan Palace.

so that.

The ruddy complexion of the host Mrs. Xia suddenly turned snow-white.

A pair of bare hands.

Clenched fist.

The rosy vermilion lips covered with rouge showed some signs of being bitten.

Zhao Ji!

You bullied me too much!
In the past, my mother was the first lady of the Qin State, and she was about to become the queen!
But it happens to be you!

Come back from Zhao.

It's okay to take away the queen's position from my old lady.

Because your mother is more expensive than your son, Ying Zheng's intelligence is obvious to all.

My mother's son is stupid.

Not as good as you!
I endured it!
But you have been targeting me, scolding me, and making my status drop again and again!
nowadays.

In front of so many ministers who have friendship with me, so humiliating me!

Do you really think my patience has a limit?
Madam Xia fixed her eyes on Zhao Ji.

Due to the dim light.

People in the distance can't see very clearly.

Only those sitting next to you can see it.

But the people sitting next to him were not Zhao Ji and Ying Zheng's mother and son, who else could it be?

Zhao Ji didn't show any uneasy look.

Instead, he laughed.

She didn't take her resentment to heart at all.

On the contrary, he kept interacting with Ying Zheng, using yin and yang words to secretly mock her.

"Chicken soup is coming!"

A quarter of an hour passed.

Pork and mutton were presented separately.

Because Daqin's seasoning is not very good.

and so.

Basically, they are served in the form of meat soup.

The lamb shank was char-grilled.

A handful of rice grain-sized yellow coarse salt was sprinkled on it, and the taste was very woody, not very tasty.

Li Lin is not used to eating.

But the meat soup was delicious.

But just when everyone felt that the meat in their mouths was too greasy.

The fragrant chicken soup was brought up.

It immediately aroused everyone's astonishment.

"Hahaha, empress, this is the chicken soup that the old cook has stewed for twelve hours. It tastes delicious! Empress, do you want to taste it first?"

A kind-hearted old cook.

Not very old.

Judging from the appearance alone, he looks about 50 to [-] years old.

There was a bowl of chicken soup in his left hand, and he put it on Mrs. Xia's table.

"Well, not bad, not bad, this chicken soup is delicious, and it is a good drink to relieve greasy, not as good as the Queen Mother, how about drinking a bowl?"

She deliberately picked up the chicken soup.

After taking a sip, he smiled and looked at Zhao Ji with provocative eyes.

It seemed to be mocking Zhao Ji for not even daring to drink chicken soup.

How could Zhao Ji bear this?
I'm going to take over the old chef's chicken soup soon.

Sudden.

The ten-year-old child beside her suddenly stood up, seeing that Zhao Ji was about to gulp down her drink.

Mrs. Xia's brows and eyes were almost closed from ear to ear.

"Wait! Queen Mother, this chicken soup is poisonous!"

"what?"

She hasn't reacted yet.

The old cook immediately raised his hands.

The maid next to her.

He also drew his dagger.

"No, there are assassins!"

Before Ying Zheng could react, the maid's dagger stabbed him in the back.

"Your Majesty, be careful!"

Meng Tian and Zhao Gao who were close to him hurried forward to escort him.

It's a pity that although they are very close, they are still a few steps away!
Just a few steps away.

It was enough to deal a fatal blow to Ying Zheng!

"Pfft!"

The sound of the dagger piercing into the flesh sounded, Zhao Gao and Meng Tian's expressions changed drastically
