empress and princess

The wordless stele behind the altar of Wuling was finally engraved with traces after many years: Qin Huiwu Wang Yong and his wife Anguoxiang Jun Ce combined the tomb.

The heads of civil and military officials of the Great Qin Dynasty were finally reunited.

But the word "wife" is extremely glaring, Wei Jin stared at it angrily for a long time, wishing to wear it off, and also wishing to dig Li Shizhou out of it, and cursed Qin Jiufeng for the [-]st time in his heart.

At that time, she was the one who met Li Shizhou first, and made a marriage contract since they were young. They were childhood sweethearts, and if there were no accidents, she would marry Shizhou as his wife when they became adults. Unexpectedly, when Qin Jiufeng appeared later, Li Shizhou missed her Qin Jiufeng to the end of his heart .

It was fine to snatch her fiancée away during her lifetime, and she refused to let go after her death. The two of them were lying side by side on the jade coffin in the mausoleum at this moment, and the bastard Qin Jiufeng just kept Shizhou people by his side forever.

Wei Jin's anger could not be dissipated, and she felt that she was really useless while caressing the inscription. After staring at the mausoleum for a long time, her eyes suddenly became sore, and she actually shed a little tears for Qin Jiufeng.

She should be happier when her enemy is dead!

In fact, Wei Jin was very sad.

How can a good-natured person just leave?No matter how angry she was, she never wanted Qin Jiufeng to die.

Except for the fact that Li Shizhou caused them to break up, in fact, they hit it off when they were young, and they got to know each other like that.She regards Qin Jiufeng as a confidant, and Qin Jiufeng also regards her as a bosom friend. They also talked and laughed happily, and they were also very ambitious.

It's just that the situation in Qin State changed suddenly, and a series of bad things happened...

Recalling the ups and downs of the year, all kinds of involuntary, Wei Jin burst into tears, and his mood suddenly became heavier.After staying for a long time, looking at the tombstone in front of her, Wei Jin patted her face, her eyes cleared up, and she finally regained her senses from her sad emotions; she always thought that death was not terrible, but the terrible thing was that she was living like a walking corpse, so she died That's right, it's a kind of relief for Prince Qin Jiu.

To die is easy, but to live is the hardest.

"In this life, we have no destiny, and none of the four of us can stay with each other until we grow old. We are destined to get the person we want forever in this life. But if we meet again in the next life, I will definitely not give up Li Wuce to you!"

After uttering harsh words to Qin Ayong's stone tablet, Wei Jin's heart unexpectedly felt a kind of relief called relief. She decided to let go of the rest of her life and not care about the revenge of taking his wife with a dead man.

Wiping away the tears from the corners of his eyes, Wei Jin turned around and was about to leave, but he didn't expect to run into Chu Huaimin just after walking a few steps.

Wei Jin immediately became dignified, and stepped to block the way with some bad intentions: "Princess, why are you here?"

Chu Huaimin couldn't approach her, so he paused, looked back at her with a slight smile, and simply explained that he was only here to see off the prince, and had no other meaning.

Hearing Wei Weijin, he found it strange that Chu Huaimin didn't come here to gloat and add insult to injury.As far as she knew, Qin Jiufeng killed [-] captives of the Chu State. The two had long ago carried a blood feud, even if Chu Huaimin humiliated Qin Jiufeng after his death, it was reasonable.

Although Chu Huaimin helped a lot on the way back to Qin, she was grateful for it, but she still understood Concubine Chu's temper, and she was able to fully express the word forbearance, so she was not a person who would let it go.

This trip with the King of Qin back to the Qin palace, most likely the purpose is not pure.

"The person is dead, and the grievances and grievances of yours have come to an end. The eldest princess will not want to drag out the corpse?" Wei Jin said, with a half-true and tentative tone, and turned sideways after speaking, with his head held high and his chest held high, with a strong posture Deputy Whip corpse please feel free.

"Prime Minister Wei is too worried. With the death of the prince, the grievances from that year have indeed been settled."

"really?"

Chu Huaimin nodded.

"Okay, I'm relieved with your words." It's not good to disappoint the mother's heart, after all, she is the favorite concubine of King Qin, so Wei Jin stepped back, moved out of the way, and said the most cruel words in a calm tone: "Qin Jiufeng It’s right there, if you want to be whipped or cut, please go ahead, Concubine Chu.”

That being said, of course Wei Jin knew that Chu Huaimin would not behave in a manner that would humiliate a corpse.

As expected, Chu Huaimin didn't move, and he didn't move forward any more. He stood on the spot and bowed humbly three times with the highest standard of salutation in Chu country. "I heard that the prince died of poisoning?"

"Yes. The old poison has been around for a long time, and she has been hiding it."

"To end the final war with one life, the lord really understands righteousness." Chu Huaimin said in a very soft voice.

They had a deal in the Battle of Qin and Song Dynasties, a secret that no one knew.Wei Jin thought he was referring to 7 people, so he said, "Honestly speaking, the bloody case in your country of Chu was indeed brutal. Do you regret that you didn't kill the prince yourself?"

"It's a pity. But what's more, I admire the prince's selfless love for King Qin."

"That's right, she voluntarily died, so you all have been fulfilled." Can Qin Jiufeng's good intentions really go well?

Wei Jin sighed, if it was her, she might not be as brave and persistent as Chu Huaimin in the face of the right and wrong of her family and country.

They are all poor people in troubled times.

Seeing the engraved titles of the King Qin's posthumous posthumous titles for them on the stone tablet, which is a rare honor for both of them in the past, Chu Huaimin inevitably took a second look at the moment when he finished giving the salute.It was unfortunate that these two eyes were caught by Wei Jin, and soon she smiled wryly: "The prince and Prime Minister Li are buried together without a name, which is obviously not in accordance with the rules. Isn't the eldest princess surprised?"

"The state of Qin has never been bound by etiquette and music, and the rules are naturally different from the world. It's rare to see more strange, but it makes Wei Cheng laugh."

The fact that a woman is buried together in the name of husband and wife is more than a simple surprise. It is as if the original logic is deeply thumped, and then it turns out that in this world, women and women can live and die together in the same coffin.

"The eldest princess does not need to be modest. This situation is unprecedented, and anyone who sees it will be shocked. However, the endless stories between the concubine Chu and the king have already spread all over the world. The eldest princess is also a strange woman who can break through the shackles of ethics. A few words from the same people felt sympathetic to each other, so Wei Jin changed the subject and became a storyteller on the spur of the moment: "As for why they can be buried together without names and roles. I suddenly want to tell a story, and the eldest princess is willing to listen to it." ?"

"The prime minister is willing to talk, Huaimin might as well listen."

Chu Huaimin slightly bent his lips, not disturbing the new Prime Minister Wei Jin's interest in telling stories.

Thus began a story of a long, long time ago.

Mystery, slowly solved.

This story is not only about the relationship between Qin and Li, but also about the ending of the two guards. It is the story of the entanglement between the four of them and the Qin State.

At that time, Wei Jin liked Li Shizhou, Li Shizhou fell in love with Qin Jiufeng, but Qin Jiufeng fell in love with Wei Si.Originally, they were hiding this kind of joy in their hearts, and only waited for the right opportunity to confess their love openly, but it was a pity that they were shattered by an edict to marry the general's mansion...

Half an hour later, at the end of the story, Wei Jin choked up and his eyes were red again.Chu Huaimin couldn't help feeling sorry for their predecessors: "It turns out that the prince and Prime Minister Li still have such a relationship."

"It's a mistake, this is an accident that we didn't expect."

"Does the prince know?"

"I don't know. She was so drunk, how could she know? Li Shizhou wouldn't tell her. Maybe Qin Jiufeng always thought that that person was Wei Si that night, so she was so determined to sell Wei Si for her whole life. life."

Wei Jin sighed deeply.

It was also on a moonless and windless night that two people were lingering in the room, and two heartbroken people were outside the door. Not long after, she and Wei Si began to conspire. Yan country.After listening to the story, Chu Huaimin understood, no wonder they got married as husband and wife. Although the two people have no names, they really have a physical relationship.

"Wei Si is very ruthless, and she is even more ruthless to herself, so she never tolerates half a grain of sand in her eyes." Wei Jin said again, paused, and his gaze fell on Chu Huaimin, properly revealing the situation: " Recently, the palace seems to be quiet and peaceful, but in fact, there are dark tides everywhere. Your status as the eldest princess is indeed sensitive in Xianyang Palace. Even if the King of Qin wants to protect you, it may be difficult to fight against the Queen Mother for a while. If the Queen Mother... Concubine Chu Just be careful."

If the Empress Dowager said anything, Wei Jin would stop there, she believed that the Concubine Chu would understand.

Wei Jin warned that Chu Huaimin had just expressed his gratitude to her. At this moment, a confidant hurriedly came to the side and shouted in panic: "Your Highness! Something is wrong, the little princess... accidentally broke into the Supreme Palace!"

Chu Huaimin was startled, Wei Jin spread his hands: "What are you really afraid of? What are you doing here? What should you do?"

******

In the back garden of the Taishang Palace, under the century-old tree, Chu Peisi was trying her best to crawl along Wei Si's slender legs into her arms with both hands and feet.

The beautiful grandma doesn't seem to reject her coming.Chu Peisi quickly frowned, and carefully stretched out a small hand to wipe the tears on Wei Si's cheeks, and then put her tear-stained fingers into her mouth to taste, tears are bitter!

Chu Peisi's whole face was wrinkled.

She remembered that her aunt said that if a person's tears are bitter, then the person who weeps must be very sad!

Chu Peisi hurriedly wiped away the tears of this beautiful grandma, and comforted her in a milky voice: "Don't cry, don't cry, okay? My aunt said that crying children are not good children, so adults are not good either. My lord, you have to learn to be strong!"

"Okay, okay, be obedient and stop crying!"

Although he is small, he speaks a lot of truths, and he comforts people like a mature little adult.

Seeing the beautiful grandma motionless and crying very sadly, he ignored her at all.Looking at it, Chu Peisi was also very sad. The beautiful grandma cried more sadly than her aunt cried last time, but she did not give up. .

After Chu Peisi's unremitting efforts, I don't know if the beautiful grandma remembered something, her eyes finally moved, and she stopped crying. The beautiful grandma held her grimace in both hands and finally burst into a smile: "Where are you from?"

"Grandma, let me tell you in secret. I came in from the outside. It's so big. I thought there was no one here, so I wanted to come in and play." Chu Peisi's eyes were bright, and the beautiful grandma stopped crying, and she was so happy!

"You really look like my daughter." Wei Si rubbed her hair, hugged her and sat on her lap, her soft voice was hoarse: "What's your name?"

"Chu Peisi. Grandma, please call me Peisi!"

"Okay, Perth. Does Perth know where she is from?"

Chu Peisi immediately scratched the back of his head and thought for a long time, but still had no idea where he was from. "Well... Grandma, I'm sorry, I can't remember clearly. I seem to have heard my uncles say that I am from the state of Chu, and they often say, let me not forget that Peisi is the princess of the subjugated country..."

"Chu Peisi!!"

Outside the garden, Chu Huaimin had arrived.

Chu Peisi shook her body, and hurriedly struggled to climb down Wei Si's lap, when she heard the gentle voice of the beautiful grandma: "Peisi, you have to remember, and don't forget in the future, Peisi is not from Chu, and will always be from Chu." I am from the Great Qin Kingdom."

"Alright, alright, Perth remembers it!"

Chu Huaimin's heart was trembling, watching Chu Peisi running towards her, he picked up Chu Peisi and stuffed it to his confidant, and then motioned for them to take it out with his eyes.

Taking a deep breath, she walked into the garden with steady steps.

This was the first time they met after they parted at the border that day.

"Tongyan has no taboo, I hope the Queen Mother will forgive me."

"Forget it, the Ai family likes the little guy Pei Si very much, and his temper is very similar to that of Ji Huang when she was a child." Wei Si smiled, and slowly moved the jade beads between her fingers, with a strand of white hair fluttering in the wind, she said: "Concubine Chu , Aijia has been waiting for you in Qin Palace for a long time. Why did you come to see Aijia?"

"Many years ago, I went to the Kingdom of Zhao with King Qin and captured 35 cities. At that time, the queen mother said that it would not be too late to ask for it after I figured out what I wanted. So this time when I come back, I will ask the queen mother for someone. "

"Who?"

"Qin Mingyue."

Wei Si was sitting under the tree, the sunlight streaming down through the gaps in the branches and leaves, mottled her face. "People can give it to you, but Aijia has a condition."

Chu Huaimin's eyelids twitched: "Please tell me."

"Chupes must die."

"impossible!"

"Nothing is impossible in the Ai family. Concubine Chu, do you think that the way the Yi Ai family handles things will leave hidden dangers for Daqin? No. The Ai family can ignore your status and make an exception to allow you to stay in the Qin Palace to assist King Qin, but Chu Peisi must die, and only after she dies will the state of Chu truly pass away."

Wei Si spoke softly.

Chu Huaimin clenched his lips, leaving a row of blood marks, and clenched his hands tightly. "What if I don't stay in Qin Palace?"

"If you don't stay in Qin Palace, where else can you go?" Wei Si smiled slightly.

"The sky is high and the sea is wide, there is always a place for me to go." Chu Huaimin leaned over and met Shang Wei Si's empty eyes without a smile, "Does it mean that as long as I leave, Chu Peisi will not become Qin's daughter?" threaten?"

"Unless you die."

"I will not agree. If the Queen Mother wants to touch Chu Peisi, she must silence me first." Chu Huaimin said coldly, "Qin Mingyue, I want to make a decision too!"

Wei Si looked up at her calmly, with a slight smile still on the corners of her lips: "The world has just settled down, and the hearts of the people everywhere are still unstable. It is not a wise choice to kill you, so the Ai family will not kill you."

Leaning against the century-old tree, she slowly closed her eyes with tired eyes.

"You can leave Qin Palace with Chu Peisi. You can hide your name, travel around the world, or help the world and save the people. It's a good place to go. But as long as you disagree, you should know the consequences. The Ai family will never be merciful. Concubine Chu Ah, having said so much, the Ai family still hopes that you can stay, Qin will need you in the future, and Ji Huang will also need you, so think about it carefully."

After this sentence, there was a long silence.

Chu Huaimin turned around with a flick of his sleeves, but Wei Si didn't wait for her final decision.

"How is King Qin's situation? Are you still shutting yourself up in Changxing Palace without eating or drinking?" Wei Si said this while the footsteps faded away, eyes still closed.

Chu Huaimin hummed, looked straight ahead, straightened his back, and left the back garden step by step: "From morning to night, I review military newspapers submitted by various places day and night. She said that you can't fight Xiaohuangshu." She lost the throne that she had snatched with half her life, and she said she wanted to be a wise king."

Ming Jun, emperor, never easy.

The sudden death of the little Huangshu made King Qin even worse.

After holding the national funeral and burial, the King of Qin locked himself in the bedroom and saw no one there. He had been locked up for three days and three nights; despite the extreme grief, the King of Qin still did not forget the country that was waiting for prosperity. .

In Changxing Palace, the huge palace gate was closed tightly, no one could be seen, but it was only opened for Concubine Chu.

When Chu Huaimin entered the inner room, he saw Qin Jihuang still sitting by the desk; she looked haggard, Wushun's long hair was a little messy, her eyes were red from two nights of sleep, and the food beside her was intact , already cool through.

Hearing the sound, Qin Jihuang raised her head, her eyes lit up, and hurriedly waved her hand to greet Chu Huaimin to come over, then stood up and handed her an urgent local report.

"You came at the right time, and the lonely king encountered a problem. Look, the taxes in Wei and Yan are too high, and the people are miserable. After the state expropriates them, they can't eat enough. The lonely king thought otherwise, the whole country How about introducing Prime Minister Li's burden reduction order?"

Holding the newspaper, Chu Huaimin said lightly, "The books are written in the same way, the cars are on the same track, and the taxation of the whole country must be the same. Your Majesty's decision is a blessing for the common people."

"That's good, it's decided!" Qin Tang's eyebrows were beaming, but his face was extremely pale.

"By the way, I have more than one problem. You can help the lonely king."

Qin Tang Jing said, while looking down at the stack of newspapers on the case, the thin figure fell to the ground under the candlelight, desolate, and her wrist was held by Chu Huaimin at this moment: "Ji Huang , I have something to tell you..."
