empress and princess

Half an hour later, the hunting was over and the field was over.

The Eldest Princess personally came forward to check and check, and it was found that there was not one more than General Meng, and Princess Qin did not have two more rabbits, and no one had more or less, and they were evenly matched.Anyone with a discerning eye knows that this result is tricky, but no one dares to say anything.

In the end - there is no winner or loser.

And then, tonight's hunting ground, another place where they broke up unhappy.

Not long after the Qin envoy left——

"Meng Qiong, you bastard, how did you guarantee that you would win Qin Jihuang? Damn you lost to a woman! If the eldest princess hadn't resolved this matter, you would have almost lost face in public. You are guilty!"

After punching and kicking, Meng Qiong didn't dare to dodge and begged for mercy: "My lord, I'm guilty, I'm guilty..."

"The guilty one will beat you too!"

"Your Majesty, spare your life!"

"..."

The envoy of the Qin State walked far away, but there was a faint sound of smashing and cursing indistinctly behind him. The envoys of the Qin State felt relieved after hearing this, and they laughed wantonly:

"It sounds like the King of Chu has lost his temper."

"Hey, can you not be angry? If you want me to tell you, the King of Chu will be even more angry if he knows that King Qin has disrupted the state of Chu by himself!"

"Yes, yes, yes."

"The more the enemy messes up, the better our chances of winning."

"For a monarch, he can't control his emotions, is easily impulsive, and reveals too many flaws. Such a monarch can't achieve great things!"

"Speaking of which, the King of Chu is nothing to be afraid of, and the eldest princess is not easy to deal with. I also heard that the eldest princess ranks second in the state of Chu besides the king of Chu, but most of the government affairs are handled by the eldest princess. puppet."

"Since you have ambitions, why don't you take the King of Chu down from the throne and ascend to the throne yourself!"

"Come on, you think Chu State is our Qin State."

"Fuck off, don't spoil your prestige with other people's aspirations, don't care what kind of eldest princess she is, just take back the Qin country and use it for me."

"..."

The more people discussed, the more excited they became, until Qin Jiufeng turned his head and warned: Be careful that walls have ears, and then they stopped talking.

Qin Jiufeng, who was riding on a horse, did not dare to relax at all. His sharp eyes were always alert to the surrounding conditions and found nothing unusual. Then he slowly walked to Qin Tangjing's side, only to find that Qin Tangjing was absent-minded and was looking back behind him.

She also turned her face and saw the scene in Qin Tangjing's eyes:

There was a crescent moon in the sky, white clothes lined the moonlight, Chu Huaimin stood in place, his figure was clear alone.

The night light was too dark, although the face of that person could not be seen clearly, but she could be vaguely discerned that she was a woman of both talent and beauty.

"Back to God!"

Tilting her head back, Qin Tangjing didn't feel sour and Qin Jiufeng thought her neck was sore, so she waved her hand to cover Qin Tangjing's eyes, "Look, my eyeballs are about to fall off."

Qin Tangjing patted her hands away, "Little Huangshu, you are blocking me from seeing the beauty."

"There are many beauties in Qin Palace, and I don't see anyone you're interested in."

"Beauties are the same, but interesting souls are rare."

"Did you really have other thoughts?"

The distance was a little far, so far away that a strand of white clothes could not be seen, Qin Tangjing turned his head and denied it flatly: "No."

Qin Jiufeng raised his eyebrows: "I think your expression just now is wrong, tell me, what's wrong with your stomach?"

"The one who knows me is the little uncle." Qin Tang said inscrutably, followed by Qin Jiufeng, "Your little uncle, I can smell the smell of your fart."

"..."

"Little Huangshu, do you believe that the first thing the lonely king did when he returned to the palace was to sue your deadly enemy daughter." She threw a triumphant smile at her, "Little Huangshu, the lonely king has two things against you."

"Okay, don't mention her." Qin Jiufeng felt a headache when he mentioned it, "Let's talk about business."

Putting aside his playful thoughts, on the way back to the palace, Qin Tangjing explained the calculations in his mind.

It is true that in just a few days, she has developed some interest in Chu Huaimin, but standing on their own positions, it is more of a contest between opponents.

Their trip to Chu State was full of twists and turns, the so-called twists and turns, Chu people pretended to be smart but were misunderstood by their cleverness, but it can also be seen from this that the rumors are true and the importance of the eldest princess in the heart of the King of Chu and even the entire Chu State.

Leaving selfishness aside, if the king of Chu did not have the eldest princess who advises him, the king of Chu would lose his arm. Moreover, according to the current behavior of the king of Chu, it can be seen that there will be no restraint in the future, and it is very likely that he will make a stupid decision , and those stupid decisions are more likely to bring Chu State into a stalemate.

Once caught in an irreversible situation, Qin Guo took the opportunity to enter...

Everything is possible.

Therefore, no matter how small the possibility is, as long as the source is found, it must be eliminated.

And the source, of course, is the Princess Chu.

"What do you think, little uncle?" Qin Tangjing spoke and turned his head again, the darkness was boundless.

After hearing this, Qin Jiufeng frowned slightly: "What do you mean, we can use a trick to separate the king of Chu and the eldest princess?"

"of course can."

"But there is another question. The King of Chu obeys the eldest princess's words. How sure are you of your divorce plan?"

"There are [-] points even if there are no ten points." Qin Tangjing did not hesitate.

"So confident?"

Qin Tang suppressed his smile and said slowly:

"The state of Chu is not like the state of Qin. Women in the state of Qin can worship officials and be promoted to generals, while women in the state of Chu do not enter the court and have a lower status. Think about it, little emperor, the majestic king of a country is suppressed by women. Can you obey what you say?

Qin Jiufeng continued: "People's hearts are unpredictable, and it will only cause dissatisfaction."

"It's right to be dissatisfied." Qin Tangjing snapped his fingers, looked up at the sky, and said, "This brother and sister seem to have a very good relationship, but in fact they seem to be inseparable, maybe the King of Chu is resenting her as a sister in his heart. "

She paused, looked straight ahead at the dark night, and then said: "Although the king of Chu cannot do without the eldest princess, he is definitely not convinced. After all, which king would be willing to be controlled by others and not turn over."

When he said this, Qin Tangjing squinted his eyes and turned to look at Qin Jiufeng, and said the last sentence in a steady tone: "The lonely king is also unavoidable."

Qin Jiufeng's scalp shook, and he tightened the reins, but his expression was calm, and he turned his head to ask her seriously: "Don't Jihuang believe in little Huangshu?"

"No, Uncle Little Huang is worrying too much, it's not that the lonely king doesn't believe you."

Qin Tangjing immediately shook his head, met Qin Jiufeng's probing eyes, and smiled at her, a little unable to restrain his curiosity:

"Little Huangshu holds the military power in his hand, and his ability is enough to ascend to the throne, but he handed it over to the lonely king back then. The lonely king was just curious. Everyone wants to have the throne with the power of life and death. When it comes to Xiaohuangshu, why is it so difficult?" Don't want to be the king of Qin?"

After being silent for a while, Qin Jiufeng said: "To be honest, when I was young, I wanted to get the throne crazily for a while." She was silent again, thinking of something with emotion.Qin Jiufeng turned his head and looked into Qin Tangjing's eyes, "Because the minister can get what he wants only if he gets the throne, but then he didn't get anything, so he went to the border to resist the invasion of the enemy country, shouldering the responsibility of protecting the family and the country, Once you recognize the reality, you will slowly lose your mind."

I'm afraid it's Xiao Huangshu's sad thing, I haven't seen Xiao Huangshu talk about it before, Qin Tang nodded and said: "So that's how it is."

"Ji Huang just needs to be at ease."

"Why don't you worry about the lonely king, the little emperor can support the lonely king to the throne, and naturally he can pull the lonely king down."

Qin Jiufeng said seriously: "I won't talk about this anymore, let's get down to business and talk about your plan in detail. What do you want to do?"

Qin Tangjing smirked, raised one hand, and compared two fingers:

"Tomorrow, we will divide into two groups."

Sure enough, everything went as expected, and the next day, a maid from Chu Palace came to the palace and respectfully invited Qin Tangjing into the palace for tea.

At this time, Qin Tangjing was eating breakfast, eating in a leisurely manner, and asked the maid to stand and wait.

"Princess Qin, the Eldest Princess welcomes you." One of the maids said it again respectfully, "Please don't make things difficult for Princess Qin."

Qin Tangjing stopped his chopsticks, stretched out a warm invitation with one hand, and smiled warmly, "Dear sisters, haven't eaten early in the morning, come, come, sit down and eat together."

"Princess Qin..." The maid didn't dare, but was interrupted by Qin Tangjing.

"It's called Prince Consort."

"what?"

"Why, you don't know that the eldest princess is about to marry the princess?"

"..."

The maids were so angry that they shut their mouths and stopped urging them.

After a while, the old god "Master Consort" was speaking: "Okay, okay, you go back and tell your parents, the princess, that my son-in-law only likes to drink the Dahongpao produced in spring and March, and does not drink other teas. Nor drink."

The maids have never seen such a rascal, they gave her a deadly look, wiped their eyes wet with anger, and went back to the palace to complain to the eldest princess.

"Jihuang, there's a letter from the palace." Qin Jiufeng hurried over as soon as the maid left.

Qin Tangjing looked up and asked, "Whose is it?"

"The Queen Mother."

"... What did the queen mother say?" Qin Tangjing immediately sat up straight and wiped her mouth.

Qin Jiufeng smiled: "It scares you, your mother said two things." She stepped forward and sat at the table opposite Qin Tangjing, "But one is good and the other is bad, which one do you want to hear?"

"Listen to the bad ones first." He replied naturally.

"Bad? Your mother is urging you to go back, and you are limited to return to the palace within a month, otherwise the family law will take care of you."

Qin Tangjing frowned: "Within one month? Isn't that only half a month left? No, the matter has not been resolved, and the person has not snatched it away. How can the lonely king just go back to the palace willingly."

"What's the rush, there's still half a month left."

Qin Tangjing thought about it, took a sip of tea and was shocked, "How about that?"

"The good thing is that your mother said that for Qin and Chu to re-establish good relations, whichever young man you like in Chu will be brought back to Qin, and the queen will give you a husband."

Before she could choke on a sip of tea, Qin Tangjing was suddenly choked upon hearing this, her face flushed from coughing, and she took a breath and said, "Is this still a good thing?!"

Qin Jiufeng patted her on the back, "You are not too young, Mrs. Nawang, you are spreading your branches and leaves, isn't it normal?"

"The lonely king doesn't have this idea yet." Qin Tangjing grabbed Qin Jiufeng's sleeve and tugged, "Little Huangshu, why don't you go and tell the queen mother that the lonely king doesn't accept the king's wife."

"It's not up to me."

"The queen mother has always listened to you, so go and talk to her."

Qin Jiufeng couldn't laugh angrily, and lightly pressed her forehead, "Okay, but we'll talk about this matter later, we have important business to do."

"Young uncle, don't forget."

"Yes, I won't forget."

Only then did Qin Tangjing feel relieved, and asked, "Is there any news?"

"No." Qin Jiufeng replied, "Leave it to me from King Chu."

"Alright, princess, I'll take care of it."

At the same time as the letter was received here, Fang Chu Palace also sent an urgent letter from Baili.

In Feiyun Palace, the atmosphere is slightly condensed at this moment.

His Highness was kneeling with a black-clothed man, and the king of Chu on the seat had a gloomy expression.

"What are you talking about, the military defense plan is not in Qin Jiufeng's prince's mansion?"

The man in black was sweating profusely. He raised his head and glanced at Chu Huaimin before replying in a trembling voice, "Go back to the king, he's not in the prince's mansion."

The King of Chu snorted heavily, and the man in black hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, the military defense plan is related to the deployment of Qin's border. "

"It's been two years since I sent you to the Qin State, and it's fine if you can't find the military defense map. Could it be that you can't find any clues!"

"Your Majesty..." The man in black wanted to say something, but the King of Chu didn't give him the chance.

"You dare to quibble." The King of Chu immediately called someone in, "It's not good for you, drag him down and beat him with twenty sticks!"

The man in black was frightened and hurriedly shouted: "Princess..."

"Wait a minute." Chu Huaimin on the side stood up and stopped him, "Brother Huang, listen to what he has to say before calling before it's too late."

"Why, you, the eldest princess, can't beat you alone!"

Chu Huaimin was silent.

The king of Chu was still humiliated last night, and he got angry again early in the morning. When Chu Huaimin stopped him, he gritted his teeth and became more angry, "With the defense plan of troops, Chu State will be able to attack Qin State in one fell swoop, and now we can't find any troops. Defense map, what else can I say!"

Chu Huaimin said, "Qin Jiufeng is the general of the Qin State, if the military defense plan is not in her house, where else can it be?"

Hearing this, the man in black hurriedly said, "I know where it is! It's in Qin Palace!"

"Qin Palace?" Chu Huaimin thought coldly.

"Yes, it's in the Qin Palace!" the man in black panted, "The Qin Palace is heavily guarded. None of our people came back alive after entering. Not long ago, someone found out the specific hiding place of the military defense map in the Qin Palace. , but when he escaped from the Qin Palace, he was seriously injured, and he lost his breath before he could say anything."

King Chu said: "Then go investigate again."

The man in black smiled wryly: "My lord, we have sent wave after wave of people there, and without exception, we have lost all news."

"I don't believe there is not a single flaw in this huge Qin Palace!"

The man in black continued to grimace.

When the king of Chu learned about the hiding place of the 'Military Defense Map', his expression and tone became more excited, "With this military defense map, why worry that Chu State will not prosper and Qin State will be undefeated, and Chu State will definitely regain its hegemony!"

He was gearing up and said excitedly:

"Ah Min, let's send more people there, and we will steal it back by any means."

Compared to King Chu's immature gaffe, Chu Huaimin was unmoved, and could still analyze rationally: "Brother Emperor, this matter can only be dealt with slowly. If there is too much movement, the Qin people will quickly change their defensive deployment. It's useless to steal it back."

King Chu choked, was poured with cold water, and gradually calmed down.

"Amin, what do you think we should do?"

Chu Huaimin thought for a while, but before he could speak, a maid came to report in a hurry outside the hall:

"Eldest Princess, Princess Qin is here and is waiting for you outside the palace."
