A Romantic Story of a Girl from the Qin Dynasty

"But are you thinking about Shikiya again?"

Wang Jian stepped into Ying Zheng's bedroom and asked with a slightly teasing tone.

Ying Zheng frowned, said "tsk", and asked pretending to be angry.

"Since you know it, why do you say it out loud? It makes me a little embarrassed."

Wang Jian smiled and walked to Ying Zheng's side

"Who told you that every time you think about her, the word loneliness is written all over your face, and it's hard not to let people see it."

"If you keep talking, don't blame me for falling out with you?!"

Ying Zheng is not really angry, but the secret that he wants to treasure the most has been discovered. When no one is around, Ying Zheng will always think of the days in Zhao State, the years he spent with Yan Dan, and the encounters he encountered. Everything that happened after arriving at Shimi seemed to be stored in a small room that only he could open. Only when there was no one around could Ying Zheng dare to enter this small room.

"I said I would take her back in a year, but now it's been half a year and there has been no action or progress. I'm really afraid that I will break the promise and make her sad."

In the Qin Palace, Wang Jian was the only one who could share these joys and sorrows.

Wang Jian knew about Ying Zheng's loneliness, knew about his concern, and knew that his thoughts were getting deeper and deeper, but in the current situation, he had no time to care about Shimi who was thousands of miles away.

"I do have something important to tell you."

After saying that, Wang Jian took out a purse from his sleeve and poured the fodder he had just taken out in front of Ying Zheng.

"What... is this?"

Ying Zheng looked at the vast amount of fodder scattered all over the table, wondering what it meant.

"The fodder Qianliju eats every day."

Ying Zheng's heart sank

"Is there anything wrong with the fodder?"

Wang Jian's tone was a little more serious

"I just went to the stable to see that there is an extra kind of grass added to the daily feed of Qianliju, which is what the people call horse tripping. If this grass is accidentally eaten by livestock, it will cause madness at worst, and death at worst! "

"Are you saying that this was not an accident, but that someone deliberately harmed me?"

Ying Zheng's eyes widened in shock and he stood up immediately to ask again.

"Is this absolutely true?"

Wang Jian nodded

"The person who did this was very careful. In order to prevent others from finding out the clues, he specially ground the horse intestines that were difficult to break into powder. I just looked at the fodder that Qianliju had not had time to finish. , there is no such thing in it, I think someone should have secretly gone to the stable after the boy added the forage, and mixed this thing with other forage, unless someone is careful, it will be difficult to detect!"

Unexpectedly, the crisis happened so quietly! When he came to his senses, he was almost killed! !

"The thousand-mile horse went crazy today. If Cheng Xi hadn't gone to ride that horse, I think the person who fell off the horse today was you, the young master."

"Who wants to harm me?! So insidious!"

Wang Jian smiled and said

"If you fell off your horse and died unexpectedly today, then... who do you think will be the person who will benefit the most from this incident?"

Ying Zheng suddenly realized

"Yue Ji?"

Wang Jian smiled and said, already somewhat confident.

"This person knows that you are not yet proficient in riding a horse. If the horse goes crazy, you will be unable to resist. You will be thrown off the horse and die under the hooves. This matter... seems so natural that no one will doubt it. There is something strange in the fodder of Qianliju! But even she herself did not expect that it would be her own child who would disrupt all plans!"

Wang Jian paused and then said

"When Yue Ji came to pick up Cheng Xi today, she was so scared. Her face was full of guilt and uneasiness. She even forgot to salute the monarch. She was probably quite surprised."

"Are you going to tell your father about this? If he knows, he will punish her severely!"

Wang Jian's tone was a little more serious

"Today she did not harm your life, and we have no direct evidence to prove that it was Yue Ji who did it. If you are so reckless and sue her, Yue Ji will most likely bite you back and accuse you of framed mother and concubine. , isn’t it like shooting yourself in the foot?”

He thought for a moment and then said slowly

"Since you escaped today, sir, she will definitely not let it go. Why not wait until next time, make full preparations, and hit the vital point with a direct blow, making it impossible for her to stand up?"

As Wang Jian said, Ying Zheng naturally knew the stakes, but if Yue Ji was overthrown, Cheng Xi would probably be implicated as well.

Just when Ying Zheng was hesitant about this matter, Wang Jian saw what he was thinking.

"Are you worried that since Chengyu has no mother to rely on, he will lose his father's love?"

Ying Zheng remained silent, but it proved that Wang Jian's guess was correct.

Although the young man in front of him is the future prince, his mind and thoughts are a bit indecisive. It is really difficult for him to personally defeat his own brother.

"You don't need to worry. The monarch loves Chenglong and will never neglect him because of a concubine. Blood is thicker than water, and this feeling will not change. After that..."

Wang Jian smiled meaningfully

"When the young master inherits the throne in the future, if you can't let go of your brother, you can give him a rich fiefdom and let him be an idle king. Wouldn't it be better than staying in the Qin Palace and playing tricks on each other?"

Ying Zheng frowned, and his tone already sounded a bit imperial.

"Does anyone else know about this?"

"Apart from you and me, even Meng Tian doesn't know."

Ying Zheng looked at Wang Jian with his sinister eyes. He knew better than anyone else that the person in front of him was a loyal minister that he could trust 100%.

"Then hide this matter, don't let anyone know, and don't let my mother know. If she knows, the world will be in chaos and there will be no end!"

How could Zhao Lijiang just ignore this matter? Her own child almost died unexpectedly because of saving her. This incident made her angrier and angrier. She had no place to vent her anger, so it was rumored that Lu Buwei had entered the palace.

"My child almost died under the hooves of a horse in order to save that bitch's child. Why don't you make my teeth itch with hatred over this!"

Lu Buwei didn't think it was as serious as Zhao Lijiang said. He didn't say a word, but looked coldly at Zhao Ji going crazy in front of him.

"You, you have to think of a way for me to get rid of these two thorns in my side!"

Seeing that he was messing around, Lu Buwei shook his head and said helplessly.

"This...maybe it's a blessing in disguise."

The look on Zhao Lijiang's eyes and gnashing of teeth really made Lu Buwei panic.

"What is a blessing in disguise? Do I have to thank that bitch Yue Ji?"

"Although Ying Zheng was injured in this matter, in the eyes of the monarch, he is extremely brave and cares about the brotherhood."

Lu Buwei glanced at Zhao Lijiang and said again

"The monarch loves Cheng Yu, and is afraid that after passing the throne to Ying Zheng, Ying Zheng will be jealous and kill his own brothers. But today, Ying Zheng will ignore his own safety in order to save him. Do you think the monarch will still doubt Ying Zheng? If Zhengri inherits the throne in the future, will it harm Chenglong?"
