A Romantic Story of a Girl from the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 268 Brothers turn against each other

Shimi walked in a hurry, wanting to return to the dormitory in the next second. At this time, she was anxious! Waves of bad premonitions have spread throughout my body.

"Why did the veil fall out of Chenglong's sleeve? Wasn't it lost a long time ago? Why..."

"My slave doesn't know either! When I went to look for it, I really couldn't find it! I thought that my maid and eunuch might have found it and stole it out of the palace to sell it!!"

Zhucui also became uneasy. She couldn't keep up with Shimi's footsteps and ran all the way, panicking and sweating all over her head.

Shi Yi on the side said nothing and began to think about all the things happening today, all of which seemed to be set up by someone!

In the main hall, Ying Zheng invited Lu Buwei out, leaving Cheng Yu alone.

"Tell me, why is Shiya's personal belongings in your hands?"

How could Ying Zheng dare to think about it? He looked at his brother standing in front of him. Whenever he thought that he might covet the woman next to him, he would look at Shi Mi with loving eyes. As long as he thought like this, Ying Zheng would I wish I could kill this person in front of me... my only brother!

"Yes... I accidentally picked it up one day. I originally wanted to give it back to the empress, but... I never found the opportunity."

"How do you know this object belongs to Shikiya?"

Ying Zheng seemed a bit aggressive. Although he suppressed his anger, the hatred in his eyes did not diminish at all.

"My brother used this handkerchief when he saw my empress wiping her sweat."

Naturally, Cheng Yu couldn't admit this feeling. Even if he wanted to express his love with his head held high, he had to take the overall situation into consideration. If his feelings would affect Shimi, he would rather not mention it at all!

"You just ignored your own safety and rushed to save her. When did you start... your feelings for her are so deep?"

Cheng Yu quickly objected again

"No! It's just that I know that my empress is the true love in your heart, and I don't want to make my brother sad!"

Ying Zheng stood in front of Cheng Yu and carefully observed the changes in his expression. He saw sweat dripping from his brows and eyes. He couldn't help but remember that when he was a child, he had saved him regardless of his own safety. If he still cared about brotherhood, how could he? How could he be so confused?

"You go down first..."

Ying Zheng stopped pressing questions and actually had the answer in his heart.

This matter would bring shame to the entire royal family and make Great Qin miserable. Ying Zheng had no way to point it out, but when Cheng Yu turned around to leave, he said to him

"You should leave for the fiefdom in a few days! Now that you have a family, it is no longer appropriate to stay in the palace."

After all, Ying Zheng cared about brotherhood, so he drove Cheng Yu out of the palace in this way, so that he could never see Shimiya again!

Cheng Xuan was frightened and a little surprised that Ying Zheng let him go. He said nothing more and retreated after making a gesture.

Lu Buwei, who was standing outside the door, thought the two would have a quarrel, but the room was always quiet.

This shouldn't be!

Lu Buwei murmured in his heart that everything he planned was perfect. Before the competition, he asked people to put ordinary eagle feed in Shimi's quiver, and then released an eagle that had been hungry for several meals. , he just wanted the hawk to attack Shimiya, so that the Chengyu at the scene would be anxious, forget his identity, and save her regardless of Ying Zheng's presence! Then he tricked the veil into falling out. How could Ying Zheng, who always valued his relationship with Shimi, tolerate his younger brother coveting his sister-in-law! He will definitely be severely punished or even killed!

Why...there's no movement now?

It wasn't until Cheng Yu tremblingly withdrew that Lu Buwei realized that this was not enough and that he should add more firewood! So that Ying Zheng's anger can burn even more intensely!

Ying Zheng did not come out, but sat alone on the throne meditating. Lu Buwei saw him and hurried in again.

"Your Majesty..."

He called out.

"Please don't blame me for what happened to the young master today."

Ying Zheng held his forehead with his hand and looked tired.

"Young Master has always been pure in mind and will definitely not have any suspicions about Your Majesty."

"You didn't say anything, why did you mention this? What do you know?"

Ying Zheng asked coldly

Lu Buwei rolled his eyes and said

"This……"

Seeing him hesitating, Ying Zheng lost his patience! He raised his voice.

"You should tell me quickly!!"

Lu Buwei then replied with sincerity and fear.

"This matter is related to the matter between the young master and his concubine. The ministers also overheard it when they entered the palace. They all said... the young master's concubine and the empress are very similar. Although the two fell in love at first sight, they got along well. But it is not pleasant... I also heard that... the young master rarely goes to my concubine's bedroom, and sleeps alone elsewhere."

How could Ying Zheng remember clearly what Liang Jue looked like? He had never seen him several times.

"What do you want to say?"

Ying Zheng's tone was a little unhappy.

But Lu Buwei is determined to interfere with this matter again! Not only did he want Ying Zheng and Cheng Xi to turn against each other, but he also thought that if he used this matter to mess with Shi Mi and alienate their relationship, wouldn't it be killing two birds with one stone! It also solved a big trouble!

He responded

"The young master and the empress are only a few years apart. When I heard that the empress had just entered the palace, I was very attracted to the young master. The two of them went back and forth, so they are not strangers. If..."

Ying Zheng signaled Lu Buwei to stop talking. He understood the meaning of Lu Buwei's words and probably guessed what Cheng Yu was thinking, but Shimi... he was unwilling to doubt the relationship between the two.

In short, Cheng Xi cannot stay any longer!

Originally, Cheng Xi was asked to move to the fiefdom, but at ten o'clock in the evening, Ying Zheng suddenly issued an order, asking Cheng Xi to lead the troops and attack the Zhao Kingdom together as the rear!

"Cheng Yu has never led an army in a war, why did he suddenly give such an order?"

Shimiya also heard about this and naturally found it strange.

Shi Yi was very calm. She looked at Shimi and said

"You think Ying Zheng can let go of the woman who covets your brother? You just want him to disappear in a reasonable way by sending him to the front line!"

Shimi's heart was beating fast, and these words coming out of Shi Yi's mouth frightened him even more.

"I've never doubted it before..."

She looked at Shi Yi and said slowly

"Several times, Cheng Xiu seemed a little too close to me and lost his rules, but I really didn't dare to think too much about it. In my heart, he is like my younger brother. I, I really..."

"When he insisted on accepting Liang Jue, it was probably to find out the similarities..."

Ying Zheng has not returned yet, Shimi is worried that Ying Zheng will doubt his feelings, and he is also worried.

"He is so confused! How could he have such an idea? How many people are going to be implicated today just because of this veil? When I met him, although he was a child, at least he was mentally mature! He knew clearly that he couldn't do anything , and yet he did it! Aren’t you making a mistake on your own?”

Just as the ceremony was about to wrap up, Liang Jue rushed to her with a cry.

"Empress! Please... please save the young master!!"
