It is said that Qin Shihuang was controlled by a daughter

Li Si is a very powerful person. He accepted the Xiang clan from Xu Zhi, and it took him less than half a month to arrange everything.

After annexing the Chu State, it reached Jiuyuan County in the north, Lintao in the west, and Qianshui in the south. The empire has an unprecedented territory.

Complex government affairs and unknown plans can cause headaches. After all, Ying Zheng is only in his thirties, and he cannot be born wise. However, both he and Li Si have the quality to face difficulties head-on, and these new challenges are not difficult for him.

Xu Zhi waited for a long time but did not receive news from Xianyang. Instead, he was sent to the main hall.

The Shouchun Hall was quiet, and the courtiers who were talking just now stopped and stared at her.

It is said that Xiang Yan is willing to return to Wang Jian's command, and the ministers will discuss the arrangements for the Xiang family. After the matter is completed, Ying Zheng will lead the ministers back to Xianyang.

By returning to Xianyang earlier, she could also find out early what kind of person Zhao Gao was who was hiding in public view.

The courtiers in the middle hall were all dressed in black and looked serious. They gathered in the magnificent and intricately carved hall of Chu State, somewhat out of place.

The main hall is tall and broad, with many bronze lamps.

Xu Zhi took off her shoes and entered the palace. She didn't take two steps. When she raised her head, she saw Chu General Xiang Yan among the many Qin officials.

Ying Zheng was only wearing casual clothes and was sitting at his desk.

Most of them were civil servants and generals who had met and interacted with each other. She felt that this was no different from being in Fuqiu Palace.

"Yong'an pays homage to his father."

During this court meeting, Ying Hehua only listened from one side, and Ying Zheng did not let her speak during the meeting. There were many bamboo slips piled on the table. Ying Zheng did not let her open them and read them. She seemed to just sort out the general categories for her father.

Xiang Yan saw something incredible in it.

Ying Hehua himself is indeed very different from the disgraceful image spread in the Chu King's Palace!

He saw that Yong'an and the courtiers were speaking without any unfamiliarity, and their behavior when kneeling and standing was appropriate.

There are undoubtedly two possibilities for a princess to be invited to participate in such a conversation - either she has already participated in politics, or his matter is related to her.

After a small discussion, the courtiers were almost gone. Xu Zhi was about to say goodbye to her father when Ying Zheng suddenly asked a question that made her feel confused.

"Is the opportunity in Hao Man's hands?"

Probably because Ying Zheng and the courtiers stayed together all day long, his voice was neither flat nor flat, and there were no ups and downs in between.

Xu Zhi thought that Ying Zheng was still angry with her, so she immediately sat upright, bowed her head obediently and said, "My daughter dare not disobey her father."

Ying Zheng was startled. Seeing this change in her, she thought that she was very frightened that day.

Don't dare to disobey.

Is even his daughter starting to be afraid of him?

He looked at her and said, "You have been out for a long time, and your mother and concubine are worried. Chu country is not a good land, and the King of Chu is not a good man. Sui Man will return to Xianyang with me in a few days."

"Yes."

Ying Zheng didn't want her to make any decisions and act in a way that would damage her reputation.

He also thought that five parts of the world had been wiped out, and she would probably never have the opportunity to sacrifice herself like this again.

Ying Zheng opened his mouth, but nothing came out for a long time. Finally, he asked her to stand up and waved his hand.

"...Go down."

Xu Zhi obediently agreed.

She stood up, and the wind outside the palace shook the fire lamp violently. The dark yellow firelight made it impossible to distinguish the mainly ink and blue colors of the Chu Palace.

After the courtiers left just now, silence suddenly returned to the huge palace.

She didn't know what Ying Zheng was thinking. She saw herself in the dim firelight.

She could see Ying Zheng more clearly in the yellow halo.

But what is blurry is his own shadow.

And Ying Zheng thought that this accustomed emptiness would make people fall into the abyss again.

His arm sank, and his arms instantly became heavier again.

The daughter did not leave silently.

She did not wrap up a layer of respectful and false body, but just like she did when she was a child, when she couldn't get it, she would cry, unconsciously dispelling his loneliness.

Xu Zhi originally didn't want to cry.

When Zhang Liang told her, "He doesn't dare to love her," she didn't cry. Instead, she chose to attack him, destined to take him as a prisoner.

Ying Zheng put his kind hand on Xu Zhifa to comfort her, and then he finally handed her a silk book.

It turned out to be Zhang Liang's confession.

Black characters on white silk, stamped with blood seal, cannot be changed.

She suddenly understood what Ying Zheng's first words meant.

Maybe it was because she had been pretending to be her true self for too long, or maybe she couldn't stand the words on the memorandums, so she burned them like crazy, in order to force herself to completely treat Zhang Liang as a pawn. But she couldn't lie to herself. The embroidered handkerchief she gave to Zhang Liang contained what she hoped he would understand.

However, Xu Zhi remembered what she said back then - she didn't want them to end up like Han Fei and Li Si.

Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a true prophecy, or even worse.

He actually wanted to die! !

How could he want to die? !

Before the eunuch arrived at Ziya Peak, the night was thick.

This was probably the last time Tian Guang came to persuade Zhang Liang.

He has never seen anyone like Zhang Liang in the world.

Zhang Liang's reputation among the Qin bureaucracy has always been very good, but as soon as the petition to attack Ying Hehua came out, and there was no proof that Zhang Ping was guilty of rebellion, the Confucianists headed by Chunyu Yue were dumbfounded, and the courtiers were even more afraid of getting into trouble. Zhang Yuan did not Being implicated, the Zhang family has become destitute.

After many years in the Qin Dynasty, everything has returned to the same state as before.

Zhang Liang was eventually imprisoned and had nothing.

"Are you still stubborn even now that you are here? I advise you to think about it."

Zhang Liang, however, maintained the indifference of the past, "Liang is empty today. I can do nothing for Mr. Tian Guang's request."

Tian Guang didn't say a few words.

Hearing the voices of others, Tian Guang hurriedly hid behind him.

An old man wearing a Taoist robe climbed onto the platform with a familiarity and as light as a swallow.

There is no one else but Mo Qi who is so familiar with this place.

-

Liaodong has a high latitude, and in autumn, the weather suddenly becomes colder. Lao Jixi, surrounded by the remaining soldiers, waited on the high platform.

Nine out of ten people named Ji have been buried in the mud.

Although this authority is very rare.

Ji Xi still managed to maintain the ancient surname of the Yuan Zhou Dynasty, maintaining the last afterglow of the Zhou Dynasty here, and clinging to his authority as a king.

Ji Xi was nestled in a thick white fox fur made of sheepskin. He was carried up to the high platform today by two strong eunuchs from the Yan Kingdom. He was old, he could no longer walk, and he was terminally ill in his sixties.

He watched the autumn wind beat the frost, and each leaf became more yellow than the last.

After a while, there were very few soldiers who could still gather.

A general came from a distance on horseback. Ji Xi was really afraid of the news about the Qin army, so she couldn't help but tremble a little.

The general quickly climbed up from the city wall, took out a sheepskin he was carrying from his bag, and respectfully climbed up.

Ji Xi hesitated. He couldn't speak clearly for a long time, and liquid oozed from the corners of his mouth.

His eyes opened wide, expressing his anger.

When the old eunuch saw this, he immediately wiped him with a white handkerchief. He had been following Ji Xi since he came out of Jicheng, and he was more self-reliant. He took the sheepskin in Ji Xi's hand and looked at it, and immediately said sharply: "This, this, deceiving Too many people!”

The general said: "The Donghu people said it's cold, they don't have enough money and food, and they don't have the physical strength to let them defend us."

The eunuchs knew that the royal family's wealth had been running low after years of spending. Many princes and princesses had to support themselves without spending royal money, so that this shaky regime could continue to persist.

The old eunuch was worried. Ji Xi had reminded him during Qingming that he must not reveal his secrets to barbarians.

He wanted to linger, and he didn't want to be captured by the Qin army.

The old eunuch raised his voice and said: "Nonsense! Last month, the king just ordered that the jade treasures in the royal family's inventory be sent over! It didn't take long!"

"This..." The general looked embarrassed. He glanced at the old eunuch, "I am the king's minister. If my priceless wealth is spent like this, I am heartbroken. I am just here... to convey the words of the barbarian. Old eunuch I want the official to tell me why he came out..."

"You are waiting for these generals and soldiers to eat and live with the Hu people outside. Why don't you coax those people? Military salary is also an expense, so how can you help the Hu people to talk!"

It's said to be military pay, but Yan Jun almost paid for it himself! Moreover, the environment in Liaodong is harsh, and the winter is more than ten times colder than Jicheng. The royal family talks about sharing the hardships with the people, but there are a few nobles who can really lower their heads and reduce expenses to share the hardships with the common people. Now that he heard about military pay, the general's expression changed even more.

Ji Xi waved his hand.

The old eunuch hurried forward.

This time Dong Hu proposed to inspect the army as a show of force.

The eunuch didn't say a few words when his chest was pierced by a sharp arrow tied with a feather!

A prince of Donghu came up majestically below, without even looking at the old eunuch who was vomiting blood, "The chanyu just wants some beauties and cavalry to help you resist the Qin army."

The soldier who delivered the message gritted his teeth hard and exhaled white air, which he swallowed, "...the Donghu people want two bags of supplies and hundreds of beauties."
