A Romantic Story of a Girl from the Qin Dynasty

This aloof Prime Minister, the hero of the Qin Dynasty, turned into an accomplice of corrupt officials overnight. It can be said that he is in danger! This was a huge blow to Li Si. Now that his daughter's life or death was uncertain, he was threatened by Li Si in an attempt to usurp the throne. A series of blows made this once high-spirited and confident prime minister become a little difficult to withstand.

Li Si's wife Qi Zhaoyan cried miserably, holding him up and crying and asking questions.

"Has Your Majesty seen you today? It's all Guan Li's corruption and bribery. Our daughter is innocent! You have to ask Your Majesty to let our daughter and grandson go! They... they don't know anything..."

"Don't know anything?"

Li Si staggered into the hall, feeling irritated as you can imagine. Seeing that his wife was still telling lies with her eyes open, the unknown anger completely shot up!

I saw him slap his hand on the table and couldn't help but curse

"Ever since my daughter married into the Guanfu, I have told her many times that I hope she can be a good wife and mother, take care of her husband and raise her children, and take good care of the house. Otherwise, she will get into trouble. I said so. She didn't even listen to a word of it! Look at her behavior after getting married. She is extravagant and arrogant. She is in this state today, and it is her own fault!!"

"Husband..."

Seeing that her husband, who always loved his little daughter the most, said these heartless words, Qi Zhaoyan even burst into tears.

"You love your daughter the most! It was not easy for me to give birth to her. It took me three days and three nights to give birth to her, and it almost killed me! You once said... that you will love our daughter for the rest of your life, but... Now that she is in trouble, how can you not save her?!"

"How to save?!"

Li Si was so angry that he suddenly couldn't stop coughing. After standing in the snow for a day today, the cold air entered his body. It was not easy for him not to faint at his age.

"His Majesty didn't even want to see me today. I stood in the snow and waited for several hours!"

He coughed and said shakily

"This matter is of great importance. Guan Li will definitely be beheaded by His Majesty if he takes the stolen goods. As for whether the whole family will be implicated, it depends on... Xu'er's fate..."

Li Si took a sip of hot tea and looked at his wife's haggard face. She must have been worried for a day. He couldn't bear to blame her anymore and could only sigh and said

"In order to find a good marriage for Xu'er, I visited all the high-ranking nobles in Xianyang City. Although Guan Li's family background is not the best, I think he is quite honest. There are many officials in this family. He comes from an upright family, and I thought that this guy had received a good upbringing and would not harbor evil thoughts. I didn’t expect that this damn guy started doing whatever he wanted when he thought he had climbed into our Prime Minister’s Palace! If His Majesty didn’t take advantage of his official position, I would On such a thin surface, how could he be responsible for it! He actually... dared to seek personal gain! It is his own fault that he is in this situation!"

Li Si spoke anxiously and coughed a few more times. He sent all the servants around him out, leaving his wife alone in the house.

"Guan Li's death is not the most important thing. Xu'er has not been convicted by Your Majesty yet, but is only imprisoned. There must be room for change. I will enter the palace again tomorrow to see if Your Majesty is willing to see me. "

He waved to Qi Zhaoyan to sit down.

"Stop crying, it makes me upset!"

Although Li Si said this, he still raised his hand to wipe away the tears on Madam's face.

"Our Prime Minister's Mansion may be in for a big disaster!"

Li Si looked at Qi Zhaoyan, his face a little more gloomy.

"Our Great Qin, I am afraid that things are about to change..."

"What's wrong? Is... His Majesty feeling unwell again?"

Looking at her husband's ghostly face, Qi Zhaoyan was a little frightened.

"Madam, you don't know something. Now I am being roasted on the fire!"

Li Si told his wife about the usurpation of the throne that Zhi Yu had told him today. Qi Zhaoyan was frightened when she heard this. She thought her husband was drunk and talking nonsense. If Li Si didn't look so gloomy now, she really wouldn't believe it. , the young son who has been raised under the Queen's knees since he was a child, actually still has wild ambitions.

"The young master and Chang Yi probably teamed up to deal with Guan Li. This matter was originally because Guan Li was not good at all. Sooner or later, he would be exposed in front of the emperor. Chang Yi is an upright person and would never falsely accuse him, but With so much evidence obtained in a short period of time, I guess the young master must have made a lot of efforts behind the scenes for these things."

"According to my husband's wishes, the young master hopes that you will join forces with him to kill the prince and help him ascend to the throne? If he does not agree, he will want our daughter's family to be buried with him?!"

Li Si nodded

"This time, we have no choice but to knock out our teeth and swallow them. Guan Li misbehaves and the young master takes advantage of him. If our daughter wants to escape unscathed, she may have to join forces with the young master to deal with the prince. If I am willing to join forces with him, he may present the evidence that our daughter is ignorant of corruption to Chang Yi. Chang Yi will naturally not hide selfish motives and will act impartially, but... I really cannot betray the emperor and ask me to be an accomplice. The young master plots to kill the prince together, I, I really can't do it."

He patted Qi Zhaoyan on the shoulder and said helplessly

"Our daughter has been unruly and willful since she was a child. Now that she has reached this stage, everything depends on her own fate."

"But...are you just going to watch your daughter die? Guan Li's corruption was not instigated by our daughter! Maybe she didn't know it? What about Guan Li cheating on her?!"

"Okay, okay! Stop struggling pointlessly!"

Li Si was naturally heartbroken to see his daughter die, but what else could he do now?

"You have to think about the fact that we still have two sons whose careers need to be preserved! If at this juncture, I am asked to beg the emperor again and again, the emperor will inevitably be suspicious of me! You still want to Don’t want your two sons’ careers?! We still have to protect the others!”

"How about we go and beg the queen? The queen is kind-hearted and will definitely help us!!"

"Stop going crazy!"

Li Si only felt a splitting headache

"I met the queen today. The queen said that she was not merciful. How could you ask me to beg her! Our daughter... I'm afraid this time will be in danger!"

This was just the beginning of the turmoil in the Qin Dynasty. Zhiyu and Zhao Gao cooperated inside and outside. One of them pretended to stand still in the palace, but asked Zhao Gao to use a large amount of money to bribe Guan Li's subordinates and cronies outside, and the evidence of his crimes of enriching himself for many years was revealed. Find out one by one, no matter how you deny it, you can't deny it!

Now that Li Si's daughter's suffering was just the drizzle of this coup, he saw that Li Si had already intended to sacrifice his daughter to protect himself, so he took the next step when everyone's attention was focused on the corruption of the prime minister's son-in-law.
