empress and princess

The person had gone far away, and the woman in black didn't turn around until she disappeared, and slowly took off the hood, revealing half of her face with a smile: "Then it's your turn, my lord."

When Qin Mingyue heard this, her complexion turned pale immediately, and she slammed her forehead on the ground, "Master, spare me!"

Knock head to head, knock hard.

Trembling all over, absolutely afraid; the man who dared to be arrogant and domineering in front of the King of Qin, the eldest son of Qin actually begged for mercy at this time.

The woman in black kept walking, and said slowly: "You are too selfish, and you have used your emotions repeatedly since you launched the palace change, and almost ruined the overall situation, damn it."

"Yes! Although I'm wrong, everything I do is for Daqin, for the master." Qin Mingyue hastily defended.

"I think you have become greedy, and you are no longer willing to be just a prince."

"I must never dare!"

Qin Mingyue exclaimed, her eyes widened, and her innocent expression was very real.

Then he kowtowed violently to show his loyalty.

The woman in black suppressed her smile and sighed. She had no choice but to praise the eldest son for his good acting skills. He deceived everyone with just one face.

"The Kingdom of Qin is my belief; the world is my lifelong ambition, so your little tricks, Mr. Eldest, cannot be hidden from the sky or cross the sea. Don't let me see it again in the future."

"Please forgive me, master!"

"Eldest son should know the fate of disobeying me, but because you have helped me so much, I will not take your life today, don't worry."

The hood was completely lifted with Luoyin, revealing the whole figure of the woman in black; she walked up to Qin Mingyue, stopped his kowtow, and patted his shoulder comfortingly, but Qin Mingyue trembled every time she patted.The heavy pressure emanating from the woman in black enveloped the sky and made it suffocating. Qin Mingyue was so frightened that she didn't even dare to lift her head.

"Chu Huaimin abolishes your martial arts, and I abolish one of your hands as a punishment, will the eldest son accept it?" The woman in black raised her leg and asked gently.

Qin Mingyue gasped and crawled back.

The woman in black was very patient and followed up step by step.

Every step is like a spider weaving a web, and every step is precisely stepped on the spot, casting a huge net to the whole world, from the king to the common people, and no one will be spared!

The damned supreme coercion struck again, and Qin Mingyue's back was drenched with sweat. After all, he was only the son of a prince, and he was no match for a powerful character. In the end, he had no way to retreat, and was blocked by a tree.

But a humble life, his cold-blooded master will not be kind.

Ever since he was loyal to her, he knew that no matter how obedient he is, no matter how beautifully he handles things, he can't compare to Qin Jihuang's half finger!

Qin Mingyue wanted to cry, but she finally realized that she couldn't escape this catastrophe, and finally dared to raise her head and look her in the eye.

"The master punished me because of the fact that the king abolished martial arts..."

"Why, do you feel unconvinced?"

"I dare not." Qin Mingyue bowed her head, "I am willing to accept the punishment!"

"Okay! Dare to act, you are a good man in Daqin."

The woman in black raised her feet and fell down.

Originally, he was heading towards Qin Mingyue's hand, but he changed his course halfway.

She didn't take off Qin Mingyue's arm, but just stepped on the little finger of his left hand and crushed it into a meat paste, which was regarded as a small punishment.

At the same time, the mallard stopped running wildly, and led its bewildered master towards Chu Ying at a slow pace.

On the ground, the shadows are mottled.

But people are confused, no matter how beautiful the scenery is, they don't want to watch it, so they trust the horse and let it go.

When he arrived at Chu Ying, Chu Huaimin was lost in thought and listless, when he heard a burst of crying and mourning, he woke up immediately.

——"Master, I beg you, please give me a bite of food. We have been really hungry for several days, and we really can't find anything to eat. Hungry! We are so hungry that we can't hold on."

——"Guys, look at my grandson, he is so hungry that he is almost gone. What crime did my old lady do in her previous life to suffer so much in this life? God, can you open your eyes and see We poor people, look at us!"

Not far away, a group of more than a hundred people in ragged clothes knelt and prayed in front of the camp.

Most of them are old, weak, sick and disabled. As they said, they are so hungry that they are sallow and emaciated, so skinny that they almost lose their human appearance.

"Don't be impatient, everyone! It's not that I don't give you food, but that the army has the discipline of the army. If the general is not with me, I am a junior lieutenant. I really can't be the master. Why don't you wait a little longer until the general returns? will help you."

It is easy to cause trouble when there are too many people. The deputy general shouted this sentence loudly, and the scene finally restored order, but he heard a voice behind him.

"what happened?"

Chu Huaimin frowned and dismounted, asking.

The lieutenant general was surprised and happy, and hurried over to lead the horse, and explained with a sad face: "Your Highness, people in many places can't survive because of years of fighting. They are those who fled here and beg for food from us." He Shaking his head, he said in a low voice, "To tell you the truth, His Highness, the last... people in their hometown have also fled."

The seven-foot man, when he talked about his hometown, tears flickered in his eyes.

Chu Huaimin was taken aback for a moment, as if a needle had pricked his heart. "Is there anyone else at home?"

The lieutenant shook his head: "There is no audio."

I don't know whether it is dead or alive.

"I have met people in my hometown. They said that my father and mother died on the way to escape, and my younger sister is also missing. She is only 13 years old this year..." Eyes are already red.

My sister didn't know whether she was dead or alive.

When he turned his head and looked at those teary-eyed people waiting for their food, it seemed that he saw his relatives who were fleeing, and tears almost fell at that moment.

Then Chu Huaimin's heart was pierced again, which can no longer be summed up as dripping with blood.

It hurts, it hurts so much.

She once pursued peace, and believed that if there is no war, she will not fight. Even if there is a war, she can protect the Chu country, but the sky does not fulfill people's wishes. Now the war is raging, and the Chu country is full of refugees.

What was once a prosperous land has become barren.

There are beacon fires everywhere, and no place is a safe place.

Bitter people are everywhere.

"Take them to something to eat."

Chu Huaimin said.

In the end, this is the only way to go. It is a luxury to have enough to eat in the chaotic world of war, and after giving them a bite of food, they will continue to wander.

unless--

"Unless the six countries are unified, the disputes are extinguished, and the people of the world are restored to a peaceful and prosperous world."

On that side of Pingyu, Qin Jiufeng said as he quickly dropped sunspots on the chessboard, driving the opponent to a desperate situation step by step.

"Okay." The other party was unruly, "I will return the common people to a peaceful and prosperous world!"

"Before that, you should think about how to escape from my hand, you will lose."

"What's so difficult about it." The other party snorted.

Qin Jiufeng smiled smugly, holding a sunspot that determines victory or defeat between his fingertips, just waiting for Ji Huang to drop the ball, so that she can win the championship in one fell swoop.

Almost lost, but that's okay.Because the Ji Huang she saw was looking at the chess and thinking, quite calm, not crying to regret the chess and start again like before.

This change—

Qin Jiufeng suddenly felt a little embarrassed. The little person seemed to have grown up overnight; he knew how to put away his edge, knew how to handle things properly, and could stay awake even when encountering emotional entanglements.Compared with herself, Ji Huang definitely fits the description of a king better.

At this moment, Qin Jiufeng felt lucky again, glad that he made the right choice to support Ji Huang as king.

If she really became the king of Qin, she probably wouldn't care about the country, she didn't want anything but Wei Si.

"There is always a gap between ambition and reality. One is grand and the other is cruel. When I was young, I set up such a grand ambition with your mother and the person behind you. Unfortunately, it has not been realized so far. defeat."

"That's why we have high hopes for you before you were born."

Ji Huang was still contemplating her next step, when she suddenly said these words with earnestness.

Therefore, Ji Huang, who bears such a responsibility, is destined to be extraordinary.

"I know about this, little emperor uncle, and the empress mother often said so in my ear, asking me to always remember, remember the blood and sweat of the previous generations, so I will not and will not let you down." Without raising his head, he continued to watch the chess game without blinking.

"By the way, Uncle Huang, can you tell me about the reform of Qin State back then."

Losing three times in a row, this round cannot be lost, so Qin Tangjing rolled her eyes and decided to divert her little uncle's attention.

Uncle Xiao Huang was really fooled, and mentioned the past with great interest.

"That's a long story. Back then, it was your mother who proposed the reform..."

Speaking of that bitter but brilliant achievement, Qin Jiufeng worshiped passionately, and the blood in his body seemed to have the feeling of drawing a sword to kill the enemy again, and his blood was boiling.

After opening his mouth like this, the Ninth Prince stopped at all, not letting go of even the last details, and continued talking eloquently.

And Li Shizhou, one of the parties involved in the reform, also pricked up his ears to listen, but halfway through hearing it, he was provoked by Prince Qin Jiu's embellished solution, and couldn't help chuckling secretly.

But when he saw the prince's lips dancing, his brows and eyes...

As if, in an instant, I went back many years ago.

That young man in purple shirt who is as gentle as jade is truly unparalleled in the world when he smiles.

The prince was still talking, and the king of Qin was also fascinated by it. Only Li Shizhou turned around silently and continued with her unfinished business—counselor.

Perhaps the Ninth Prince will never know in this lifetime that the biggest purpose of Qin's reform is not their grand ambitions, but to prevent her from being accused of deceiving the emperor when her identity as a woman is exposed.

The Ninth Prince always thought that the biggest beneficiary of the reform was the Empress Dowager Wei, who laid the groundwork for Ji Huangcheng to clear away the obstacles.

However, Ji Huang had not yet been born at that time.

……

"If you don't like this, what are you thinking about, don't you plan some tricks again?"

With Ninth Prince's standard vicious voice, she placed one hand on the back of Li Shizhou's head, and with a gentle slap, pulled her back to her senses.

"Be gentle, my lord! If you beat me stupid, whoever will help you give advice." Li Shizhou immediately hugged his head and rolled his eyes at her.

"You deserve it. I told you to be lazy and refuse to learn martial arts. Now I know I'm afraid. It's too late."

Automatically ignoring Qin Jiufeng's ridicule, Li Shizhou looked back, seeing no one, and hurriedly asked, "Where is the king?" "Going away."

"Ah, then whoever loses wins."

"What do you say?"

"Does it need to be said, of course it is the king, I have never seen you win."

"..."

In the end, of course, King Qin won.

As long as the king of Qin behaves badly, the little emperor uncle who loves her will immediately throw away his helmet and armor.

So Qin Jiufeng was willing to gamble and admit defeat, and agreed to Ji Huang's request as before.

At night, there is no wind.

In the guest courtyard is still the same piece of bluestone, and on it is still Qin Tang lying half-reclined, her bags in her hands are empty, and she is already slightly drunk.

The scene is the same as that night, there is wine and moon, but she can only look at the lonely shadow alone, admiring herself alone; there is no such figure in front of her eyes, and there is no cold voice of that person, the sky and the earth are empty, as if she is alone drinking against the moon.

"Chu Qiwu..."

After lying down completely, the man murmured, repeating the name over and over again in his heart.

The more you read, the more sober you will be, and you will never get drunk no matter how much you drink.

"Your Majesty, the latest news is that Concubine Chu led the army back yesterday."

Ah Yan suddenly appeared and whispered something in her ear.

In fact, Qin Tangjing had been waiting, and finally got the news tonight.

But she was not happy, but a little sad.

Because there will be a day between them.

"How long will it take to arrive?" Qin Tangjing asked, his voice was low and hoarse after the wine was burning.

"About ten days."

"Hurrying to reincarnate, running to die?"

Even Chu Jing is almost gone, why come back!Don't you know that there are spies inside yourself?

That stubborn donkey dead ghost eldest princess!

Qin Tangjing began to grit his teeth.

Ah Yan rubbed his nose and didn't say a word, just stood aside and watched King Qin all night.

When the dawn broke in the east and it was dawn, King Qin's anger was obviously not gone, and even became stronger.

"Ah Yan, prepare your battle armor! The lonely king will personally face Chu Huaimin."
