Yue Ji knelt in front of Zi Chu, carefully considering every word. Seeing that he was trembling slightly, it seemed that he was really scared.

Seeing her pitiful look, Zi Chu couldn't help but think of the scene when he first met her.

At that time, she was just a gift from South Korea. She entered the Qin Palace along with other gold and silver utensils and rare treasures from various countries. At that time, Zi Chu had just been established as the crown prince, and the courtiers were fawning over her. If other countries want to have good relations with them, they will naturally flatter them.

Among the many beauties who were sent, Yuesu's appearance was not the most beautiful, but in the hall with so many beauties, surrounded by so many enchanting dancers and singers, in the midst of drunkenness and dreams, Zi Chu was still the most beautiful. Yueshu's presence was noticed at a glance.

Unlike other beauties who were sent here, there was always a sadness between her eyebrows that she was far away from a foreign land and her future was uncertain. Zi Chu had this sadness before. What he saw was a girl who always maintained a sweet and pure smile. Although she came from a lowly background, she was not stained by the troubles and unbearableness of the world, and was as clear and flawless as a newly blooming lotus.

The first time he saw Yueshu, Zichu couldn't help but think of Zhao Lijiang, whom he had abandoned in the Kingdom of Zhao.

Zhao Lijiang and Yueshu are two different beauties. Zhao Lijiang's beauty is breathtaking and prohibitive. She has a hot personality and is naturally straightforward. Zi Chu has experienced too many ups and downs in those years with her. , was also 'tortured' by Zhao Lijiang's aggressive personality, but now that I think about it, I really enjoyed it at the beginning.

And Yueshu is the beauty that wants to return to peace after going through thousands of sails. She is very cute and gentle, and her eyes are always full of smiles and care. The little woman's Yueshu makes Zichu very satisfied. After getting along with him, Zichu He was even more moved by her passion for a better life. Although she came from a humble background, Yueshu never regretted herself. She also tried her best to take care of Zichu. Although she had three thousand beauties in the harem, she never had sex with other concubines. There were disputes and dissatisfaction.

Having experienced too many hardships in life in Zhao State, for Zi Chu now, this tranquility is too rare, so he cherishes it very much.

Zi Chu helped her up and saw that she was indeed frightened, so he quickly comforted her softly.

"You have a gentle temper and don't like to fight. Gu naturally knows that you are not interested in the position of prince, but... this matter is of great importance, so I have to ask more. Gu's health is deteriorating. This position of prince... …should also have been considered earlier.”

He took Yue Ji's hand and the two of them sat on the edge of the bed. He couldn't help but ask again

"Since you knew that Gu wanted to welcome Zheng'er back to Qin, you probably guessed that it was for the purpose of establishing a prince, right?"

Yue Ji did not deny it. She nodded and said with all the grievances.

"Although I know that this matter is important, I don't dare to talk nonsense, so I have never asked anyone about it, and I have never paid attention to it."

She held Zichu's hand and said with tears in her eyes

"Zheng'er is the king's legitimate son and should inherit the throne. This is a common practice in all dynasties. My concubine, Xiu'er, is not his legitimate son, so how can he dare to covet the throne of the prince."

Hearing what she said, Zi Chu hugged Yue Ji and was very pleased.

"Gu naturally knows your thoughts. Although Zheng'er is the eldest son, he has been away from Gu for more than ten years. The father-son relationship between Gu and him is naturally not as good as that of Xiu'er. When it comes to caring, Xiu'er naturally makes Gu like him more. "

The tenderness and lingering love here made Zhao Lijiang feel even more lonely when he was alone.

Seeing that it was getting late, Lu Buwei naturally didn't want to stay much longer. Just when he was about to leave, Zhao Lijiang's unreasonable anger began to burn again.

"What's wrong, Lu Xiangguo, you are in such a hurry to go back, tonight... we won't stay together..."

Before he finished speaking, Lu Buwei was so panicked that he stopped him immediately.

"Miss!"

He suddenly raised his voice, and then glanced at the servant serving beside him. Although he knew that Zhao Lijiang was speaking freely, he did not expect that she would start going crazy on the first night after returning to Qin! It really shocked Lu Buwei into a cold sweat.

"Your Majesty! It's getting late, so I won't disturb you too much. Please, please rest early!"

Without waiting for Zhao Lijiang to respond, Lu Buwei turned around and quickened his pace, leaving this land of right and wrong.

She was not angry when she saw Lu Buwei running away in a hurry, but just cursed a few words with disdain.

"You have a thief's heart but no courage! You really have no future!"

On the first night in the Qin Palace, Ying Zheng was naturally not used to it. In the Zhao Kingdom, he had to rely on himself for everything, but now in the splendid Qin Palace, countless servants were waiting to serve him, from dressing to eating, and even If you just take a few more steps, those fawning minions will swarm in, vying to serve the future prince well.

I thought I would be relaxed, but instead I became even more exhausted!

Although the journey of traveling through mountains and rivers is over, the chaotic life in the palace seems to be even more annoying.

At this moment, Ying Zheng was lying weakly on the bed. He was usually taciturn, but today he was pulled by the quilt to meet some ministers, and he was already exhausted! Now he just wants to close his eyes and sleep peacefully for a night, but after entering the Qin Dynasty, the turbulent prelude has begun, and there is no time for him to relax!

He removed all the unsightly servants, leaving only Wang Jian in the dormitory. From now on, Wang Jian and Ying Zheng will be inseparable. Although the two of them were monarchs and ministers on the surface, they were already friends in private.

"There is a banquet in the palace today. Do you think...any of the ministers here are willing to assist me?"

Wang Jian stood aside and saw that he was worried, but he still smiled and responded in a relaxed tone.

"When I met at the table, except for Lu Xiangguo, no one was on your side."

"really?!"

When Ying Zheng heard this, he stood up immediately and became even more worried.

Wang Jian looked calm and nodded with a smile.

"You have just returned to Qin. Although you are the eldest son, you don't have any close friends in the court. Apart from Lu Xiangguo, who will help you for no reason? Then..."

Wang Jian wanted to say something else, but due to his personality, he had never talked about others behind their backs, which made Wang Jian a little uncomfortable. He was silent for a moment, and Ying Zheng urged him to continue speaking. Reluctantly, he spoke again.

"I saw the young master today. Although he is only eight years old, his mother... has been looking for suitable ministers for him in the court since he was born. She has already established connections for him. The powerful party members behind this are You are unbeatable now.”

Ying Zheng thought for a moment, looked at Wang Jian and said

"Do you also think that his mother, Yue Ji, is not a simple person?"

Wang Jian clasped his hands on his chest, seeing confusion written all over his face, he only found it interesting.

"Of the women in the palace, which one do you think is a simple-minded person? If she was a pure and transparent person, she would definitely not be so favored, and it would never be possible...she alone would give birth to the king's child!"
