A Romantic Story of a Girl from the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 228: Conspiracy to usurp the throne

Wang Jian's proposal of marriage surprised Shi Yi. She never expected that the famous Qin general Wang Jian in front of her would propose marriage!

Looking at his sincere eyes, she naturally knew that Wang Jian was not joking. He was not someone who would joke about life-long events. If he had said it out loud, he would have thought about it for a long time.

There was constant air-conditioning in the small shabby thatched hut, but Shi Yi's heart was agitated by Wang Jian's words. She was stunned for a long time, unable to believe that this was true.

"What's wrong? Could it be that... you don't want to?"

"I……"

Shi Yi's throat was choked with sobs, and she was even more moved. She never thought that someone would like her like this, nor did she expect that the general in front of her would love her and make a promise. Wang Jian allowed these things that she never dared to think about before. Achieved.

"Now is not the time to get married..."

Shi Yi refused.

The rejection surprised Wang Jian.

"Why? If now is not the time, then when will we wait?"

Wang Jian never thought that Shi Yi would refuse. They were obviously two people in love, so it was natural for them to get married, and Shi Yi had nothing else to worry about.

"Could it be that...you still want to be the queen?"

"No...absolutely not!"

Shi Yi decisively rejected this idea and rejected Wang Jian's marriage proposal. She was in pain, but at this moment, she was still defeated by the inferiority complex deep in her heart. The Wang Jian in front of me will be the general who will help Ying Zheng unify the six countries in the future! Not only her achievements are remarkable, but her character is also beyond words. Compared to herself... Although she was Princess in her previous life, but now she is a palace maid, how can she be a match? Even if she is willing to marry him, she cannot bypass the obstacle of identity. Shi Yi was a little depressed and said with some reluctance.

"The situation in the country is currently in turmoil, and the War of the Seven Kingdoms is not over yet. We encountered an ambush this time. Someone must be trying to harm you. You are almost twenty now, but the power in your hands is in the hands of Lu Buwei. What you have to do There are many more, how can you delay your official career for the sake of the love between your children..."

"So...you hope that you will marry me only after I help you secure your throne and regain his political power?"

Wang Jian held Shi Yi's hand. These rational analysis words were really not like her character. At this time, she shook off the spiked armor she wore all the time and became gentle and rational.

"kindness……"

Shi Yi smiled and nodded, but his eyes were full of helplessness.

At this time, Shi Yi probably never thought that by rejecting Wang Jian's marriage proposal this time, he would never have the chance to respond to his passionate love in the future.

Seizing power from Lu Buwei, killing Lao Ai, imprisoning Zhao Lijiang, and starting to attack the Six Kingdoms, this series of events had already kicked off a fierce prelude when he returned to the Qin Palace.

The two groups of masters sent by Zhao Lijiang and Lao Ai failed to succeed, so they sent people to Yongcheng to report the news. Zhao Lijiang had no idea that Lao Ai secretly sent troops to kill Shimi and Ying Zheng. When the assassins returned to Yongcheng, , thinking that the two people had the same idea, they reported the news of the trip directly to the Queen Mother.

Zhao Lijiang was shocked when he heard that Ying Zheng was injured.

"Didn't I tell you to kill Shikiya?! Why was even my son injured?!"

She was furious and waved her hand to have the assassin dragged out and beheaded.

"Queen Mother! You said that Shikiya was right to be killed! But Lao-sama said that you should be killed as well!"

Lao Ai? !

"You mean...Lao Ai asked you to kill your lord?"

The assassin knelt on the ground and nodded repeatedly. Only at this moment did she clear her thoughts. She didn't expect that Lao Ai, who had been following her all the time, actually wanted to kill her son!

She rushed to the dormitory and saw Lao Ai sitting alone playing the piano. Without saying a word, she grabbed his collar and slapped him hard!

"Why are you so crazy?! Why did you hit me?!"

Lao Ai saw Zhao Lijiang suddenly making a move and didn't know why.

"How dare you send an assassin to kill my son! How brave you are!"

Zhao Lijiang was furious, dragging Lao Ai and trying to move forward again.

How could Lai Ai stand there honestly and wait for her to make a move? He hurriedly hid behind the pillar. Seeing that Zhao Lijiang had not been so angry for a long time, he quickly reminded him.

"You still have my baby in your belly. You are about to give birth. If you have fetal gas, you will be in trouble!"

"You damn fake castrated dog! It's not enough to get me pregnant once! You actually got me pregnant a second time! You, how dare you secretly murder my political son! I will make your family extinct!"

Zhao Li, who was going crazy after Jiang finished speaking, was raising his hand to hit her bulging belly. Seeing this, Lao Ai quickly ran out from behind the pillar and stopped her.

"Why are you so crazy?! Do you have my twins in your belly? If you dare to hurt them, I will never end it with you!"

Lao Ai hugged Zhao Lijiang tightly. Zhao Lijiang was really angry and hit him hard several times. Lao Ai was stunned and didn't say a word. After she finished venting her anger, she could comfort her with words.

"My ancestor! My little sweetheart! No matter how angry you are, you can't take it out on your child! If you're angry with me for taking action without authorization, you, just go get a knife and kill me!"

Lao Ai hugged Zhao Lijiang and gave a sweet meal. Zhao Lijiang was still alive. He collapsed on the ground with a sad face and said with all kinds of grievances.

"Even if you don't like Zheng'er anymore, you can't kill him! He, he is my child after all!"

Lao Ai saw her crying so hard that she took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears and began to brainwash her.

"Although you are a good mother and regard him as your precious son, your precious son may not regard you as his biological mother..."

"What do you mean?"

Zhao Lijiang's eyes widened, he pretended to be angry, and wanted to raise his hand to hit Lao Ai, but was caught by Lao Ai.

Lao Ai smiled, gently lifted her chin, and said slowly

"Look, you are the empress dowager of the Qin Kingdom! You just killed one of your concubines. Besides, that concubine had no power at all. Just kill her. But, look what your son did to you? He actually disregarded the face of your Queen Mother, dared to massacre the people in your palace, and even imprisoned you. Not to mention this... He also drove you to Yongcheng, a place where no one cares. You said he treated you as a child? Queen Mother?!”

Zhao Lijiang was coaxed into a daze, and Lao Ai stroked her belly again and said

"It's not like you only have one child, Ying Zheng. Look at you... you still have a new monarch to choose from in your belly!"

After hearing this, Zhao Lijiang's face darkened, her tone became sharp, and she asked

"What do you mean by that?!"

Lao Ai had Zhao Lijiang under control and was not afraid of saying such stupid things. He knew that Zhao Lijiang was reluctant to kill her, so he said slowly

"If a child is born in your belly, they will also be Ying Zheng's biological brothers! Are you... not qualified to inherit the throne?! Since Ying Zheng doesn't treat you as a mother, why should you be so kind to him?"
