It is said that Qin Shihuang was controlled by a daughter

Chapter 424 Mengding Mountain Tea, Yuhuan Misty

Chen Ping watched the case and noticed that something was wrong with Zhang Liang, but he didn't say anything in the end.

So he made up some random conversation with Zhang Liang.

Chen Ping looked around silently. It didn't seem like Zhang Liang was being exiled or imprisoned.

The place they lived in was quiet and elegant, and there were servants. They looked young and spoke Chen Ping's hometown dialect - the local dialect of Wei.

The current Qin court, thanks to Wei Ju, is the most reassuring of the Wei states.

With Zhang Liang's tacit approval, the attendant added another cup, "This is Emei Snow Bud."

The color is tender green and moist, and the tea soup is tender green and bright.

"This is Cangshan tea, please have it, sir," said the attendant.

Cangshan tea has a flat sword-like appearance and jade-like color. It has a lasting and penetrating aroma, a bright yellow-green soup color, a fresh, mellow and sweet taste, and bright yellow-green leaves.

Next are Bamboo Leaf Green Tea and Xufu Longya. As can be seen from these place names, they are all produced in Shu.

Chen Ping held the handle and picked up the many kinds of tea in front of him. Some of them were not clear, but contained some ground tea powder.

Chen Ping had not been influenced by much, and was very different from Zhang Liang, who was of noble birth. When he was young, he was lucky to have rice milk to drink, and he really couldn't tell what was good or bad about this tea.

From the various words that Chen Ping specifically mentioned.

Chen Ping clearly learned a fact.

Zhang Liang forgot everything about his past in Qin!

It is not feasible to weaken a man's will to avenge his country's destruction, to dissolve his hatred, to promise him about the future, and it is also not feasible to make him fall in love with her.

The people of Qin rarely shed tears in secret and lament the unfairness of fate.

She never stops at one person.

So, Zhang Liang was thrown away by her cruelly. She forced him to forget his hatred and, knowing well the principle of making the best use of things, wanted him to become a symbol of the old times.

Chen Ping saw this clearly with a distanced attitude.

He didn't know about Han Fei's precedent, nor did he know that this was the best outcome they could expect at the moment.

In his opinion, this was Ying Hehua's cruelest revenge. It was also the backlash of Zhang Liang's love. In the final analysis, his biggest mistake was falling in love with his student and enemy.

Love is the original sin, and those who love it will suffer the consequences.

The tea in front of Chen Ping was the last one he decided to try. The attendant said that this tea was called Bamboo Leaf Green. Chen Ping saw that the leaves were straight and beautiful, even and clean, and the aroma was rich and long-lasting.

But Zhang Liang stopped and handed him the cup of tea he had brewed.

He said please gently.

Chen Ping had already drunk a lot, but this one was really different. He took a sip and the fresh and mellow taste melted on his tongue. Compared with the ones he had just drunk, this one made his mind tremble. This was really a top-notch product!

Chen Ping smacked his lips. No wonder Ying Hehua had given Shu tea as a gift to Wang Wan before. There was always tea in the Zhilan Palace. It must be the aristocracy that had the fun of life.

The bright yellow-green tea may seem ordinary, but it exudes a fragrance that goes beyond its natural color.

A gentle breeze blew by, lifting Zhang Liang's long hair that was scattered behind him.

Chen Ping drank very slowly.

Zhang Liang suppressed the trace of emotion in his eyes and said to Chen Ping: "I am not a tea drinker, and I drink tea alone for a long time. I am very happy to hear that you are happy and cheerful. If you don't mind, you can bring me some tea to drink."

No matter whether Zhang Liang remembers it or not, or what he has become, his words always make people feel like spring breeze.

"It is better to obey than to be respectful."

As far as the eye can see, the courtyard is quiet and there is a gurgling stream not far away.

In the noisy and chaotic world of Qin, where swords are everywhere, it is actually good enough to be able to find some peace and quiet here.

Chen Ping was also deeply touched by Zhang Liang's kindness.

Or maybe, asking him to forget was also a kindness.

Chen Ping regretted coming here, and he didn't want to bother Zhang Liang any more, so he quickly said goodbye to Zhang Liang and walked to the entrance of the village.

The two figures not far away were Zhang Yuan and Zheng Chou.

"You don't remember?"

The woman screamed and put a jade ring in Zhang Yuan's hand. "What do you mean you gave it to me for the first time? You really don't remember! Then I don't want it anymore. Humph, I'll give it back to you!"

Zhang Yuan held the jade ring nervously.

Chen Ping keenly realized that he had seen a jade ring of similar quality. However, the one he had seen at that time was no longer the same as Yuhuan. It was when Ying Hehua was seriously injured on the road.

She dropped the jade herself in the Liquan Palace of the Chu State. Later, she rashly went to pick it up. It was licked by the fire and the sachet was ruined to pieces. A piece of the jade ring was missing, and it became a jade seal.

She looked extremely dejected, but quickly regained her senses and immediately ordered him to find a way to get the half-burned sachet into the market, preferably in front of Zhang Liang.

Zhang Yuanyuan is not as unpredictable as Ying Hehua.

He handed the jade ring to Zheng Chou again, "A Chou, that's not what I meant. You probably don't know that although my mother had countless hairpins and rings when she was alive, the only thing she loved was this pair of jade rings passed down from the family. After she passed away, my father made silk ribbons out of them and left one for me and my brother."

Zheng Chou looked at Zhang Yuan strangely. Zhang Yuan's mother had a pair of jade rings passed down from generation to generation, how could she not know about it!

The mother of Zhang Yuan and Zhang Liang was named Zheng Fang. She and her father Zheng Guo were from the same clan in the State of Han, so they were related.

There is an unwritten rule among the Zheng family about jade artifacts - they are passed down to daughters, not sons.

Because Zheng Fang married the famous Zhang, this jade artifact was selected by the clan and passed down to Zheng Fang.

In addition, Zheng Guo later became an official under Zhang Xiang, which was why Zheng Chou often went to Zhang's house when she was a child. Zhang Yuan should know these reasons better than her, but now he seems to be completely unaware of them.

Zheng Chou was lost in thought and still very angry. He suddenly looked up, but unexpectedly Zhang Yuan leaned over and bumped into him.

Zhang Yuan hissed, touched his chin that had just been hit, and said innocently: "Achou, I have a bad memory since I was a child... It takes me a whole day to memorize something that my brother can remember at a glance... Anyway, it's all my fault, don't be angry..."

Zhang Yuan's method of coaxing girls was already a common practice in Korea.

Zheng Chou looked at his red chin and said, "Okay. It's better for you to have a bad memory than to regret it."

He grabbed the ear of corn and put it in her palm, saying sincerely, "It's a pity that I have nothing else now, only this courtyard, I'm afraid I have wronged you."

Zhang Yuan thought about it.

"If my father saw what I see today, he would definitely call me a prodigal." He laughed carelessly again, "All my savings probably wouldn't be enough for the betrothal gift, so I'll give you everything." As he spoke, he pulled out a stack of silk, like land deeds, from his sleeve and placed it solemnly in her hand.

"..."

Zheng Chou didn't know whether he should be angry or ask a doctor to check Zhang Yuan's pulse.

Their marriage certificate had been finalized by Zheng Guo and Zhang Ping ten years ago.

Zheng Chou could never have imagined what his father said, that their child marriage was nothing more than an exchange of interests.

At that time, Zhang Ping needed Zheng Guo to go to Qin State as a spy.

There is no good ending to being a spy.

The only condition of Zheng State was to marry the son of Zhang Xiang into the family.

He thought that even if he died in Qin and was torn apart by five horses, his daughter would be protected in Zhang's house for a long time. With Zheng Fang's intercession, the matter was settled in the form of a marriage certificate.

This was the only deal and calculation Zheng Guo had learned from his two senior brothers in his life.

However, no one could have imagined that two sincere flowers would bloom in the dust of calculation.

Fortunately, thankfully, they like each other and this is not another tragedy bound by the current situation.

Zheng Chou had no idea about the past between Zhang Liang and Ying Hehua.

She had sharp eyes and saw that the entrance to the village was not as high as the city, and it was endless, so Chen Ping could not dodge in time.

"Chen Yuanjun!"

Zheng Chou called him out in one breath.

"Brother Ayuan, this is my colleague in Xianyang." Perhaps because she was too influenced by Ying Hehua, she called him 'colleague'.

Zhang Yuan bowed.

He had never met Chen Ping and did not know that Yuanjun was Chen Ping's courtesy name.

Zheng Chou forced another piece of news upon Chen Ping.

When Chen Ping returned to Zhilan Palace, Ying Hehua was flipping through the bamboo slips behind the screen.

He saw the medical officer had just left the hall, and Shen Zhi brought out the empty medicine bowl.

Without even raising her head, Ying Hehua asked about the matter that had just been presented to her.

"What happened to the King of Qi? Why did he die in a prison cart?"

This matter was actually not a big deal, but it made her very anxious for a while.

Chen Ping said: "General Wang Ben will return to the court soon and will report to the court. As for the matter of Li Tingwei, I hope the princess will be prepared. I think the people of Qi are forcing the princess to take action."

"If I bring Li Si down, will you do better than Li Si in the future?"

Chen Ping paused. Ying Hehua's words were direct and sharp, which made him very scared.

"I have absolutely no such thought." Chen Ping bowed.

The box of Mengding Ganlu that Zhang Liang handed to him suddenly became very heavy.

Isn’t Li Xian in Shu?

Water from the Yangtze River, tea from the top of Mount Meng.

Chen Ping couldn't drink any more, so he just offered the wine to Buddha.

"I happened to find some good tea a few days ago. I am a crude person and do not know how to appreciate it. I would like to present it to Your Highness."

He saw her looking up and down the Boshan stove on the table thoughtfully.

He continued, "Perhaps the Qi people are using the method of sowing discord to harm the harmony between the princess and the court officials. I think the princess should discuss it with Li Tingwei and try to reach a peace agreement."
