A Romantic Story of a Girl from the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 551: Zhi Yu wants to win over Li Si

The palace is busy, so naturally Zhiyu will not be idle. Chu Yueqing's advice has no effect at the moment.

Although he was bored when he saw Chu Yueqing following her every step of the way, the person in front of him was his mother's personal maid and the aunt who had taken care of him since he was a child. No matter how disgusted he was, he couldn't get angry in front of her.

"I know, I know. Sister Chu, you are really becoming more verbose every year. You are not very old, but you are more nagging than Aunt Zhucui."

Zhiyu walked around the back garden of Qin Palace, minding his own business, but he actually wanted to take the opportunity to get rid of her.

"Now that my father is ill and my mother is taking care of him day and night, my body is naturally overwhelmed. You should go and accompany your mother. What's the use of following me."

"My slave will naturally obey the Queen's will."

Chu Yueqing looked at the young master jumping up and down with cold eyes, and couldn't help but sigh inwardly. Although he was raised by the queen, after all, the blood of the queen was not flowing in his bones, and he did not look like the queen in either temperament or appearance.

"It's getting dark, it's time for you to return to the palace for dinner."

While the master and servant were talking, a small group of maids passed by the corridor not far away. They were the maids who were going to deliver dinner to Shikiya.

Chu Yueqing was naturally interested in the matter as it related to the queen, and her eyes followed the steps of the palace maids.

"Wait!"

She suddenly called out to the group.

Everyone stopped immediately after hearing this.

"Miss Chu, what's the matter?"

asked a leading maid.

"The dinner you brought to the Queen is not hot anymore, how can you feed it to the Queen?"

It turned out that Chu Yueqing saw a palace maid holding a cup of soup with her bare hands without taking a plate.

"This... I have not had a good appetite these days, and I am not sure about the meal time. Today's dinner has been reheated several times. If I reheat it, I'm afraid it will simmer to pieces."

"Your Majesty has a poor appetite, so you should serve her more carefully. How can you be so lazy just because your Majesty doesn't care about these little things at the moment?"

At this time, Chu Yueqing forgot about Zhiyu's existence and focused on Shimi. She walked up to the palace maid and said with a serious expression.

"Your Majesty, you have a poor appetite. You should make light meals and avoid these greasy and meaty foods..."

Zhiyu, who was not far away, naturally would not miss this opportunity. Seeing Chu Yueqing walking away, he immediately ran into the bushes and fled to other places.

How to win over useful courtiers? This is the issue that concerns him most right now. He is not the eldest son, let alone the prince, and he is not favored by the emperor. Naturally, no courtiers are willing to get close to him. Although everything is going against him now, this boy does not seem to have the intention to give up. Instead, he is sure that Fusu is not around. Xianyang has the opportunity to do something earth-shattering!

He walked to the main hall, wanting to find out what was going on, and even more so, looking for some opportunities. By chance, he was allowed to squat in Li Sijin's palace.

Li Si was in a state of panic. Ying Zheng suddenly fell ill and had no time to say anything. Although he was temporarily in power, he couldn't act recklessly! Naturally, some major events must be implemented with the consent of the emperor. If you make your own decisions, there will be nothing good to gain when the emperor wakes up!

It's just that...the emperor is unconscious and really lonely!

This prime minister, who has the supreme power in the Qin State, has been the most trusted and trusted companion of the monarch for decades. Although Li Si and Ying Zheng have a relationship between a monarch and a minister, Li Si feels a trace of gratitude to this emperor from the bottom of his heart. .

"There is no difference whether you look at the Qin Palace thirty years ago or thirty years later. The only difference is probably the people in the Qin Palace. Who will build this palace thirty years from now?" Where is the owner?"

Li Si stood on the pavilion and looked at the majestic mountains and towering city walls, and couldn't help but sigh.

"If it weren't for His Majesty's appreciation, how would I have had the opportunity to display my talents, and how would I have been where I am today? If you... couldn't afford to be sick like this, then I would be really sad..."

Just when Li Si was worried about Ying Zheng's condition, a familiar voice sounded behind him.

"Lord Xiangguo, how are you these days?"

Young Master?

Li Si was stunned.

"The minister is paying homage to the young master. I didn't know that the young master is also here to enjoy the scenery. It's rude."

The meeting between the two was unfamiliar. Apart from a few words at palace banquets, the two had almost no chance to meet.

"Lord Xiangguo, you are too polite."

Zhiyu smiled, lowered his posture specially, and saluted Li Si.

"Master Xiangguo came to the palace today, is he also here for my father?"

What kind of wind is blowing today? Why did it attract this young man who has no ears to hear what is going on outside the window?

Li Si naturally found it strange. He could see what Zhiyu was thinking at a glance. He was looking for a topic to talk about today. It seemed that he wanted to ask for something!

"Yes……"

Li Si naturally looked down upon Zhiyu, not to mention that his biological mother was a sinner. Even if she wasn't, this young son who had no power and no love had no big future at all, so he couldn't please him.

"His Majesty is ill, and the affairs of the court have been left to the care of the veterans. Today I came to the palace to visit His Majesty, and to see the Queen. The veterans cannot make the decision on some major national affairs alone, and can only ask the Queen for her opinion."

Li Si didn't want to say anything more and saluted again.

"I'm sorry that I have something to do and I can't accompany you. I'll take my leave..."

"Why doesn't Mr. Xiangguo ask the prince about matters in the court? Why should he ask the empress?"

Zhiyu ignored Li Si's eagerness to resign and asked straight to the point.

"Brother Fusu is the prince and will definitely inherit the throne in the future. Now my father also intends to let him participate in state affairs. Why doesn't the Prime Minister ask the prince's opinion instead of asking the queen?"

Li Si stopped and turned around to look at the young master, who was just over sixteen years old. His eyes did not reveal his innocence and indifference to the world, but his smile was a bit cunning. Li Si had already guessed at this question. reached his goal.

"How can the prince seek his advice when he is out on an expedition? He should consult with the queen at the moment."

Li Si was deliberately pretending to be stupid at this moment.

"A few days ago, I heard that Mr. Xiangguo was severely criticized by Brother Fusu in the court. Is this really true?"

Although this boy cannot participate in court affairs, he knows a lot of things!

"Yes, it's true."

Li Si didn't think it was a shameful thing, so he admitted it openly.

"I heard that the Prime Minister proposed to increase taxes on the people and recruit soldiers to guard the border. But my brother's ideas were contrary to your ideas, so he scolded the Lord mercilessly in the court."

Li Si smiled, stroked his beard and said

"Disputes over disagreements are common, and I'm not surprised at all. What's more, what the prince said is not unreasonable. Your Majesty should listen to more opinions. How can you make a decision just by listening to the words of the veteran?"
