In the evening, in the field, in the camp.
Dong'er looked at Li Yanyan who was squatting in front of the campfire with the expression of seeing a ghost.
The other party was gently stirring the clay pot on the campfire with a wooden spoon.
God!
Can anyone tell me what the hell is going on here?
The lady actually cooks herself!
This thing is so magical that Dong'er feels unreal.
Although it does not come from the main line of the Li family, the Li family is the most powerful family in Chu after all.
Li Yanyan has been taught by good teachers since she was a child, she is a serious lady, it is impossible for her to walk into the kitchen.
That's what servants should do!
But today let's not say that the young lady is absent-minded all day long, staring out the window in a daze, and now she actually has to cook the fish soup herself.
Did the assassination last night irritate the young lady?
Dong'er tilted her head, looking confused.
"Dong'er, send the fish soup to Mr. Cao!"
"???"
Dong'er looked numb.
"Miss actually cooks for him herself!"
You must know that my young lady has kept her fingers aloof since she was a child, but now she actually cooks for a man herself, which completely overturns Dong'er's perception of Li Yanyan.
"He saved us last night."
Li Yanyan explained softly.
After Lu Goujian killed the guard guarding the gate last night, he stunned Dong'er again.
So except for Li Yanyan, no one saw Cao Chaochao's hand.
"Uh, I thought it was done by Senior Mao."
"No, it's him, he was holding a sword last night..."
Li Yanyan began to describe the scene last night in detail.
Her beautiful eyes were shining, her slender eyelashes blinked, and her eyes were full of admiration and yearning.
Speaking of the excitement, two blushes appeared on the forehead, which was extremely touching.
……
Qin State, Xianyang, Harem.
"I've seen the eldest sister!"
Although he is the lord of a country, but in front of this sister, Lord Yangquan did not have the slightest arrogance and saluted honestly.
Mrs. Hua Yang has a noble status and is the queen of King Qin Xiaowen. In order to get her support, King Zhuang Xiang took the initiative to ask to be her adopted son and changed his name to Zi Chu.
Just because of these two layers of relationship, even Mrs. Xia, the biological mother of King Zhuang Xiang, would bow her head in front of her, let alone Zhao Ji, who was born as a singer.
In the harem, Mrs. Huayang's position is unshakable, and she is the leader of the Chu faction in Qin.
"You made a mistake again!"
Her face remained unchanged, but Mrs. Huayang's tone was full of dissatisfaction.
"???"
Mr. Yangquan was at a loss, not sure what his sister was referring to.
"The imperial court is going to send troops to Shangdang, are you going to recommend Fan Yuqi as the commander-in-chief of the army?"
"That's right. The Zhao country is in disaster and South Korea is weak. The Shangdang will be sure to send troops this time. It is a good time for our Chu faction to expand our influence in the army."
"Shit!"
Yangquan Jun was talking about his thoughts triumphantly, but was so frightened by Mrs. Huayang's angry reprimand that he fell to his knees on the ground.
Not only Mr. Yangquan, but even Mr. Changping and Mr. Changwen, who had been serving Mrs. Huayang's back, were so frightened that they knelt down together.
A majestic aura came from Mrs. Huayang, and the dignified and kind expression on weekdays completely disappeared.
"Haven't you ever thought about what happened to the Empress Dowager?"
Empress Dowager Xuan is the biological mother of King Qin Zhaoxiang and the aunt of Mrs. Huayang.
Back then, King Qin Zhaoxiang succeeded to the throne at a young age, and the power fell into the hands of the Empress Dowager Xuan.
Under the vigorous promotion of the Empress Dowager Xuan, the Chu people controlled the Qin Dynasty for more than 20 years.
However, within a few years of Queen Mother Xuan's death, the forces of the Chu faction were attacked wildly by the local forces of Qin.
The heads of countless Chu people fell to the ground, and the Chu faction was uprooted overnight. Even Mrs. Huayang was almost deprived of her queen status.
In the end, it was Mrs. Huayang who tried her best to not be implicated.
"Even if the people of Chu controlled the government, they wouldn't have provoked such great revenge from the people of Qin."
Although Mr. Yangquan knew about this matter, he never figured out the reason.
"That's because the forces of the Chu faction at that time merged with the foreign forces headed by Fan Ju, which harmed Lord Wu'an Baiqi. This made countless old Qin people angry and unite."
"This……"
Mr. Yangquan was dumbfounded.
Don't I just want to gain some military exploits and develop my power in the army?
The people of Qin wouldn't be so insane.
"madness!"
Mrs. Huayang's phoenix eyes were full of power, and she glared at Mr. Yangquan.
"Do you think that Lu Buwei is your biggest opponent above the court?"
"..."
Seeing Mr. Yangquan remained silent, Mrs. Huayang pointed at him bitterly.
"Big mistake!
"Lü Buwei is a mere merchant, even if he has a high position, he has no foundation at all, what is it?
"Your real opponents are those Ying family members and meritorious dignitaries!"
Mrs. Huayang paused, glanced at the thoughtful Mr. Yangquan, and then continued:
"You have to know that the old Qin people value military merit the most.
"In the eyes of these people, it doesn't matter how much trouble there is in the court, but there is only one voice allowed in the army, and that is the king!"
"Any force that dares to intervene in the army will not be tolerated by them.
"Have you ever wondered why with Lu Buwei's ambition, he didn't even fight for the position of commander in chief?
"Because he dared not!
"It's good for you, people avoid things like snakes and scorpions, but you take the initiative to embrace them.
"Believe it or not, once you recommend Fan Yuqi today, tomorrow you will find that most of the court will be your enemy!"
After Mrs. Huayang's words fell, the entire palace fell silent.
Mr. Yangquan finally realized that his back was already dripping with sweat.
"Lu Buwei, that old fox!"
Mr. Yangquan gritted his teeth with hatred.
He finally figured it out.
Lu Buwei stole a high position as a merchant, and had long been targeted by the old Qin people.
The opponent wished he could disperse the firepower for him.
"You finally understand!"
Mrs. Huayang sighed, feeling tired for a while.
After all, it is getting old.
"Sister, what should I do now?"
"Hurry up and find Da Zongzheng, and get back all the excerpts you wrote.
"Remember, at the court meeting tomorrow, you must do everything possible to pass the position of leading general to Wang Lu and Duke Lu."
"Yes Yes Yes!"
Looking at the back of her brother leaving, Madam Huayang shook her head.
She turned around, looked at the two brothers Changping Jun and Chang Wenjun, and said lightly
"Mi Chen (Yangquan Jun's name) is not Lu Buwei's opponent after all. The future of my Chu family depends on you two brothers!"
"Nephew thanked aunt!"
"Besides, Zheng'er is almost fourteen and has reached the age to marry.
"You two brothers will bring back my idea and ask Xiong Wan (King Chu Xiaolie's name) to pick out a dignified and virtuous woman from the clan."
"The successor of the Qin Kingdom must have half of my great Chu's blood!"
"Yes!"
