A Romantic Story of a Girl from the Qin Dynasty

what?

Li Xi was stunned for a moment, then slowly raised his head to look at Shimi. Her expression was calm, with no hint of hatred, and her tone was light, as if she didn't care about her quarrel with Ying Zheng.

There was something peaceful about the years in her eyebrows. Shimi sat and looked at Li Xi. Then she smiled, shook her head and said

"Whether I should give you a position or not, and whether I should let you serve the king, should be decided by the king himself. Although I am the queen... I really can't control these things."

Li Xigang wanted to speak again, but Shimi spoke again.

"You probably don't know yet. When I was still the crown prince, I promised you that I would never take another woman as my concubine. If I go to ask you to give you a position today, wouldn't I be making him break his promise to me?" , how can I do something like this that damages the reputation of the king?"

"But……"

Since entering Qin Palace, every step he took was beyond Li Xi's expectation! Ying Zheng's changeable character and the queen who seems to be easy to talk to but has a lot of words behind her words are not a waste of energy! Moreover, Li Xi also noticed that the queen seemed to be very cautious and had already realized that she had something to hide.

If you insist on asking for a position at this moment, it will not only make you look more pitiful and undignified, but also make Ying Zheng look down on you! If he dislikes himself, wouldn't it be impossible to get close to him? How to carry out the assassination?

I was probably too anxious. It was only for one night to enter the Qin Palace. As long as Ying Zheng didn't drive me away, then I would still have a chance to ascend to the throne! Maybe... being a laid-back musician would give me more opportunities to arrange things?

Li Xi was silent for a moment, no longer refuting, she nodded in response.

"Yes, the daughter of the people knows that the daughter of the people will not have any delusions anymore."

Shimi knew that this woman's origins were unknown and there seemed to be something hidden behind her. Naturally, he could not agree to let her serve Ying Zheng. If he could dig out all the secrets behind her, and if she was still innocent by then, he would naturally go and take her place. Ask for a seat.

Although facing this incident made him sad and angry, Shikiya was no longer worried about it at this time. Since it happened, he could only face it and deal with it well. Being resentful or frowning all day long would not only make others disgusted, Nothing good comes of it.

Besides...you have to think about your three children! Fusu is his legitimate son, and his future life will be even more dangerous. If he is not stronger, how can he protect these children?

Ying Zheng sat alone in the hall and lost his mind. His fierce revenge was not pleasant. Not only did both parties suffer, he also lost Shimi's trust.

"How is your Majesty today?"

He asked listlessly the serving eunuch.

Zhao Ze, the eunuch who was serving him, saw that the king had been depressed these days and had an unpleasant quarrel with the queen, so he quickly comforted him.

"When I return to you, your Majesty, your Majesty's morning is just like any other. She has finished all the breakfast she was given. She also played with the little princess for some time. She seems to be in a good mood."

"Where are you now?"

"It's the end of the year and the New Year is coming soon, so I'm probably going to the inner court to make preparations."

Ying Zheng nodded thoughtfully. Since he brought Li Xi back to the palace, Shimi has never taken the initiative to look for him once. Although they both live in the Qin Palace, she hides everywhere and tries not to bump into him. , and at this time, Ying Zheng did not dare to go to the palace to see her because of his guilty conscience. Ying Zheng was extremely scared, afraid to see her disappointed eyes.

That long heartfelt confession was still firmly engraved in his heart every word. In the past few days, Ying Zheng thought of the experiences of the two of them when they were young. He thought of Shimi giving up his return home for himself and suffering in the Zhao Kingdom. After all the hardships, he returned to Qin, thinking he could enjoy eternal peace, but he almost died. These memories of the past have been constantly popping up in front of his eyes in the past few days. Ying Zheng remembered that he thought Shiya was dead in the past, and he was so grief-stricken that he vomited blood. What if it happened now? If Shiya faced such an experience now, would he still be so heartbroken?

Of course it would. Ying Zheng was sure that his heart had never changed. During the twenty years the two had been together day and night, it was too easy to ask for love from Shimiya, causing him to forget the despair that once separated the two places. He took Shikiya's presence by his side for granted, and he took Shikiya's love for him for granted, but he forgot his original intention.

She will not forgive me because my impulsiveness destroyed the agreement we made when we were young and cast a shadow over all the good things in the past.

I will never be her husband in her heart.

"Your Majesty, do you want to go and see the empress? The little princess must be at the empress's place at this time. If you go up and see the little princess, the empress will also be happy."

The implication of Zhao Ze's words was that he wanted to use the little princess as an excuse for the two of them to settle their differences. Because the little princess was here, both of them could talk to each other well and would not get angry again.

Night fell again in the Qin Palace. Shimi was sitting in front of the bronze mirror, combing her long hair. She glanced out of the window a few times. It was already winter. The branches in the courtyard were all bare and looked a little depressed. There were scattered candles. The fire lit up the long night. She was in a trance and said to herself

"The difference between the night two thousand years ago and the night two thousand years later is really big. There won't be so many stars in the night sky two thousand years later. The lights in the city will be bright, but it will look like an artificial Milky Way..."

"Your Majesty, I have already gone to see her. The woman named Li Xi went to Yuefu obediently. We sent people to keep a close eye on her. She didn't dare to cause any trouble."

"He is also a poor man."

Shimi combed his hair and looked up to see some noise in the courtyard. Before he could see clearly, he noticed that Ying Zheng was coming.

He did not bring many guards, only an accompanying eunuch followed him. When he approached the palace gate, he asked Zhao Ze to go back.

In fact, Ying Zheng has been lingering at the gate of the palace for a long time. He doesn't know how to face Shi Mi. It is a fact that he has done something wrong, but Shi Mi and Li Mu, who have been caught by him, have become nothing!

"Your Majesty, please go in quickly. If I turn off the lights and take a rest, I won't see you again today..."

Seeing Ying Zheng's hesitation, Zhao Ze quickly reminded him, and Ying Zheng nodded and rushed in.

Zhucui and other maids were naturally happy to see the king coming.

"Your Majesty, you are here."

Shimi sat in front of the desk and did not get up, but watched him step into the bedroom. Several slaves wanted to salute, but Ying Zheng called out to them.

"You guys go down."

Although Ying Zheng looked majestic, he looked a little more guilty when he looked at Shiya.

Shikiya didn't chase him away, nor did he hysterically scold him for being unfaithful. Instead, he sat alone and combed his long hair.

Ying Zheng smiled, walked to the bedside with gentle steps and sat down. He looked at Shimi's back and saw her expression at this moment in the bronze mirror.

He had a very calm expression, as if no storm had ever swept over him.
