I and the King of Qin Sweep Liuhe

Coincidentally, a maid came over and put a bowl of porridge on the plate in front of Ying Zheng, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty said that you didn't have breakfast, so you should use some porridge first and then others."

Ying Zheng nodded: "Understood."

Gong'e backed away, and Ying Zheng brought the porridge to his lips. Feeling Zhao Zheng's gaze, he paused and looked up at the throne.

Zhao Zheng was talking to the servant next to him, not looking at him.

Ying Zheng frowned slightly, he didn't think that look just now was an illusion.

Mr. Chang Ping and Li Si changed places, moved closer to Ying Zheng, and said, "What kind of porridge is this, is it delicious, Mr. Chang'an?"

Ying Zheng avoided him slightly, and said, "Sweet."

Lord Changping said, "Wheat porridge? Why is it white?"

Li Si explained in time: "Your Majesty has been suffering from stomach problems. This is medicinal porridge, which is slowly stewed with goat's milk and honey syrup."

Mr. Changping said clearly: "So that's the case. I'll stew it later. Li Si, don't you have two sheep in your family? Do you have any milk?"

Li Si wants to grab the land with his head, the Xiangbang of the Great Qin!Can you be a bit of a gentleman in front of foreigners? ?

Changping Jundao: "Well, it seems not. After the banquet, you can accompany me to the market to buy!"

Li Si: "..."

Silently touched the shriveled little purse on his body.

The banquet was over, and all the ministers returned home exhausted.Zhao Zheng was drunk, and was supported by the servant to go to the side hall to rest.

Ying Zheng was not drunk, he hadn't had a few sips in the first place.When he left Xianyang Palace, a servant stopped him: "Mr. Chang'an, Your Majesty ordered me to wait to send Mr. Chang'an back."

There are 99 long steps in front of the palace gate paved in the square, and a magnificent imperial chariot is parked next to it, obviously only the king of Qin can ride it.

Ying Zheng glanced at it and said, "No need."

He walked in the direction of the annex.

And the other side.

King Qin, who was said to be drunk, came to the prison very sober at this moment.

This is a prison for detaining important criminals. The cell is made of dark iron, surrounded by organs, and the guards are all well-trained dead soldiers. Anyone who wants to rob the prison is a dead word.

Zhao Zheng met Lu Buwei in the deepest cell of the prison.

Although the old man is down and out, there are still hills and valleys. He is sitting in front of the desk and reading.

Zhao Zheng came, and he also performed a very standard courtesy of a monarch and his ministers.

Zhao Zheng sat on the soft seat and didn't let him get up. He took the bamboo book on the case, glanced at it, and couldn't see his expression: "Lu's Spring and Autumn, Father Zhong is still thinking about this."

Lu Buwei said: "For the sake of the past saints, we must spare no effort."

"Well said. The widow also appreciates these ancient traditions. There are bandits and gentlemen who are as sharp as they are, and they are as sharp as grinding. After the death of Zhongfu, I will allow your disciples to continue compiling this book."

Lu Buwei saluted: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Zhao Zhengdao: "Father Zhong has always been scheming, can you still solve my doubts for the widow?"

Lu Buwei respectfully said: "Please speak, Your Majesty."

"There is a person who hides his identity by the widow's side and doesn't want to recognize the widow. Father Zhong thinks, what does he think?"

Lu Buwei said with a smile: "With Your Majesty's intelligence, it seems that you shouldn't be troubled by such trivial matters. Your Majesty has many ways to make him confess, and even if it doesn't work, you can use torture."

Zhao Zhengdao: "I can't bear to hurt him even the slightest bit."

Lu Buwei said: "Is there anyone in the world who can't even bear to hurt the king?"

Zhao Zheng showed a cold smile: "Strange?"

Lu Buwei shook his head: "The king is ruthless, my lord, this will become your weakness."

Zhao Zheng raised his eyes, "Yes, Father Zhong is right. So, what should we do?"

"If this person's heart is as hard as a stone, the only way to solve it is to kill the word."

"What if not?"

Lu Buwei said: "The only way to solve it is to kill."

Zhao Zheng tapped the side of his face and fell into deep thought: "Maybe. But he has already died once, and the widow can't afford him to die again."

There was a gleam of light in Lu Buwei's old and hale eyes, "The king said, is it Chang'an Lord Zhao Li?"

Zhao Zheng looked at him with calm and questioning eyes.

Lu Buwei said with a smile: "Your Majesty has always been obsessed with Zhao Li since he was a child. He is very concerned about everything related to Zhao Li. Who else can make Your Majesty reluctant to part with him? Speaking of which, if Zhao Li was in Qin State How could it be the old man's turn to take the name of Father Zhong as the imperial court?"

Zhao Zhengdao: "The widow does not want him to set foot in the court."

Lu Buwei said: "Mr. Chang'an is indifferent to fame and wealth. It is good to stay away from these right and wrong. Power is something that is hard to get rid of."

"Like Father Zhong?"

Lu Buwei smiled: "Yeah, like an old man."

Zhao Zheng lowered his eyes, and for a long time, he said: "Forget it, no one in this world can give others the answer. I prepared fine wine for Zhongfu, please enjoy it."

Lu Buwei seemed a little surprised, but also a little relieved.He knew that death was inevitable, but he didn't expect it to be so easy.

In the state of Qin, plotting rebellion is a serious crime to tear apart the three clans.

Lu Buwei thanked him, and then he looked at Zhao Zheng who walked to the door, "I have a question, can your lord clear it up for me?"

Without turning his head, Zhao Zheng said calmly, "Speak."

"Your Majesty must be well aware of your Majesty's feelings for Zhao Li. I want to know, if one day, Zhao Li did the same thing as my Majesty, how will Your Majesty deal with himself at that time?"

Zhao Zheng stood where he was, his white clothes floating quietly in the candlelight.His eyes fell on the void, and he was silent for a long time.

"Except for feelings, the king already has everything."

Zhao Zheng finally spoke, his voice was calm and quiet: "Is Father Zhong trying to make the widow not to be too greedy?"

"If a person obtains supreme power and still has a loyal relationship, I'm afraid even the heavens will be jealous."

Zhao Zheng said lightly: "Then let it be jealous."

Lu Buwei watched the thin figure leave.This young man has grown up to be unpredictable, admirable and submissive.

He may become an unprecedented king, but on that day, Lu Buwei knew that he would never see him again.

But he could vaguely imagine that if this young man fell into a sea of ​​love, the entire Qin country would rise and fall with him.

How many heroes in ancient and modern times, how many people have passed the love test.

·

After leaving the prison, Zhao Zheng remained the same.But the people around clearly felt that something had changed.

For example, the King of Qin would bring that Lord Chang'an with him for hunting, feasting, and flower viewing. He even got a very special place in the court for him.

This is undoubtedly an expression of some kind of favor, but the relationship between King Qin and Lord Chang'an is very strange.

For example, they never spoke in court, and both of them listened to the courtiers quarreling, and then their expressions were surprisingly the same—like a tiger and wolf behind their prey, watching and thinking quietly, secretive and unfathomable.

When they were not in court, the two of them rarely saw each other, except for some activities, neither of them would take the initiative to seek out the other.

Occasionally, when they met on the road, Lord Chang'an arched his sleeves slightly, while King Qin nodded silently.

In short, these two people are very weird.The courtiers were all talking and guessing in their spare time. Even Li Si and Wang Wan, two people who had always disagreed with each other in their political views, could talk for an unprecedented half an hour when it came to this topic, which is amazing.

On this day, the state of Qin ushered in the most wonderful court meeting since the founding of the country.

Well, it's a long story.

Not long ago, the case of Lu Buwei's treason was thoroughly investigated, and the carrots were pulled out to bring out the mud, and the people involved were cleaned up one by one.

Lu Buwei committed suicide by drinking poison, and Cheng Yu hit a wall and died. The Queen Mother Zhao was the second criminal, but she still lived with a cheeky face.

Those who were involved were punished, and those who sat down were exiled. Only a part of Lu Buwei's disciples continued to compile "Lu Shi Chunqiu".

A few days ago, Mrs. Cheng Yu gave birth to a posthumous child, a baby boy. The King of Qin adopted the child under his knees before bestowing on Mrs. Cheng Yu his death.

This incident caused a sensation in the government and the public. After all, King Qin is only 17 years old, and there will be many opportunities to have children in the future. Although the harem is now empty and there is no one, it does not mean that there will be no future!Taking a sinner's son under his name, even if he is not the crown prince in the future, he will still have a wolf by his side, how can this be done?

So many people complained about this, but Zhao Zheng drove them back and ordered them not to mention it again.

In the harem, the Empress Dowager Huayang and the Empress Dowager Xia slanted their swords and picked a bunch of cardamom girls for Zhao Zheng, but this child didn't know what was going on, she was so stubborn that even three bulls couldn't pull her back, she just refused to accept the harem.

No way, the Queen Mother Huayang heard from somewhere that King Qin and Lord Chang'an had a good relationship, so she called Lord Chang'an over and asked him to persuade King Qin.

As a result, it added fuel to the fire. Lord Chang'an didn't know what he said. King Qin was very displeased, depressed, and went on a hunger strike for three days.

On the fourth day, that is, this day, the courtiers couldn't sit still, and at the suggestion of Lord Changping, they came together to persuade King Qin to have a meal.

In the court hall, Ying Zheng sat in a special position in the northeast, between the officials and the throne, and listened silently.

Li Si beat the chicken blood even more, and handed in a letter of advice, with hundreds of words in it, and Ying Zheng couldn't help but think of "Admonishment and Expelling Guests".If this "Book of Persuading the King of Qin to Eat Meals" can also be handed down, future generations will probably laugh out loud after reading it.

Li Si argued hard and repeatedly asked the King of Qin to take good care of his body.It was rare for Wang Wan to stand on the united front with him. Although not as talented as Li Si, she expressed her views very simply.

Mr. Changping... Forget Mr. Changping, everyone tried their best to stop this chatterbox from speaking.

Sitting on the throne, Zhao Zhengduan looked much lighter, but he remained expressionless.

The court of Qin State has always been relaxed, regardless of the official position, everyone can express their opinions, so every time the court meeting is basically arguing about various things, the face is blushing and the neck is thick. This is the first time such a harmonious scene has appeared.

The court hall was quiet for a long time, and finally, the King of Qin said: "I know what you mean, dear ones."

All the faces looked at King Qin with teary eyes.

King Qin's gaze fell on someone in the northeast: "But what you say won't work."

So everyone glared at Mr. Wei.

The meaning couldn't be more obvious: you Wei people have angered our King Qin, and now he loses his temper and doesn't eat, so hurry up and coax him!If you can't coax it well, I'll let you feel the anger of our old Qin people!

Ying Zheng, who had been drinking tea in silence, said, "..."

The flood rushed into the Dragon King Temple. Unexpectedly, one day, he was murdered by his own courtiers.

In his previous life, this group of people fought against him all day long, and none of them went well. Ying Zheng didn't mind avenging his personal revenge: "It's not a big deal if you don't eat."

King Qin silently looked away from Ying Zheng, and wrote lightly: "You're right, it doesn't matter if I starve to death, let's all go away."

All the ministers were crying and howling, and the emperor was not in a hurry to kill the eunuch. After persuading him for a long time, it was useless.

Everyone stared at Yingzheng indignantly, only Li Si smelled something unspeakable, and he hinted at Mr. Bang Changping, "Your Majesty is out of anger, don't worry about it, let them go."

As the Prime Minister of the Qin Dynasty, Lord Changping, besides dealing with internal affairs and serving as a peacemaker among the officials, is also playing cockfights and horses on the streets of Xianyang. Occasionally, when he is in a good mood, he will take his pet dog Xiao Hei and Li Si's rhubarb with him. Walking the dog together, and Li Si can be regarded as "dog friends".

He was surprised and said: "Your Majesty and... Lord Chang'an? Why are they so angry? Aren't they both silent?"

Li Sidao: "It's just... quarreling. Among friends, whoever has never quarreled, just let them reconcile themselves."

Isn't this a coincidence, since Mr. Changping's business was involved, he was eager to try, "No, I'll persuade you."

"Hey...!" Li Si wanted to stop him, but Lord Changping appeared in the middle of the hall in a blink of an eye, "I have something to say!"

When Zhao Zheng saw that it was Lord Changping, he really couldn't avoid it: "Needless to say, Xiangbang, I'm going to have dinner now, and they're all gone."

Zhao Zheng left after speaking.

The courtiers stood there in bewilderment, "This is Your Majesty, are you willing to eat?"

Mr. Changping looked at Li Si: "Really?"

Li Si wiped his sweat silently: "Really..."

He looked at Yingzheng, walked over to salute, and said, "Please take care of the king's meal, Mr. Chang'an."

Ying Zheng said, "Very childish, isn't it?"

Li Sidao: "Your Majesty has a knot in his heart. Although I don't know what it is, I am afraid that only Lord Chang'an can solve this knot. Your Majesty is still a young man, and some petty emotions are inevitable."

Ying Zheng looked at Li Si and his eyes darkened.Yes, Zhao Zheng is only a 17-year-old boy.The huge state of Qin is all tied to one person, and all the government affairs are handled by him personally. Such complicated and tedious work will make even Ying Zheng feel tired, let alone Zhao Zheng.

At this age, Zhao Zheng has already done a good job.

In the side hall, Zhao Zheng was reviewing the memorial.There were guards outside the bead curtain, and Ying Zheng walked over, just as a maid came over with a meal.

Ying Zheng said, "Give it to me."

Gong'e looked at Ying Zheng carefully, and then at the servant who was walking inside the bead curtain, not knowing what to do.

Seeing that it was Mr. Chang'an who came, the servant hurriedly said, "Young Master, please come in."

Ying Zheng took the food plate and walked into the hall. Zhao Zheng was reading the first batch of memorials, and ordered without looking up: "Put it on the table."

Ying Zheng walked over and took the pen away from his hand, and put the meal in front of him.

Zhao Zheng was going to be angry, but which palace official was so bold, he was taken aback when he looked up and saw Ying Zheng, and said displeasedly, "What are you doing?"

Ying Zheng said, "What are you talking about?"

"I said, whenever you admit your identity, I will..."

"I admit it." Ying Zheng handed him the chopsticks angrily, "I'm Zhao Li, okay?"

Zhao Zheng was stunned. He thought he was going to go on a hunger strike for seven or eight days, but... he admitted it so easily?

Ying Zheng: "Or, what else does Your Majesty want me to do?"

Zhao Zheng shook his head.

Ying Zheng: "Then eat."

Zhao Zheng suddenly regretted again: "Yes."

Ying Zheng raised his eyes: "Huh?"

Zhao Zheng took the chopsticks, "Sir...can you change your face?"

Ying Zheng: "..."

Who said you don't care what I look like?

Turning his head, Ying Zheng put on the mask he bought in the space.It wasn't that he accommodated Zhao Zheng, it was Wei Ru's face that made him feel bad when he saw it.

Seeing this mask, the last bit of doubt in Zhao Zheng's heart was also eliminated.

Maybe it was because he suppressed his emotions too much, his happiness and joy seemed relatively flat, but his eyes kept looking at Ying Zheng, extraordinarily clear.

Ying Zheng was uncomfortable seeing him, so he knocked on the paint table to urge him to eat.

He has been unwilling to expose Zhao Li's identity. First, Zhao Zheng takes Zhao Li too seriously, and Ying Zheng has already made plans for this body, and he will leave soon.The second is that Ying Zheng can't imagine that if Zhao Zheng loves Zhao Li to the point of getting out of hand, he doesn't know how to deal with it.

But at this moment, seeing Zhao Zheng eating obediently and looking at him with eyes that were both happy and scared, his heart suddenly softened.

He thinks that's it, what should come will come.Even if he couldn't respond to Zhao Zheng, at least he could stay with him.Watching him grow up, watching him become a good emperor.Maybe one day, Zhao Zheng will kick him away on his own.

The boat will be straight when it reaches the bridgehead, let's go.

Zhao Zheng finished his porridge, pressed it on his lips thoughtfully, and turned back into that well-behaved student again: "Student is on hunger strike, is sir angry?"

Ying Zheng glanced at him: "What do you think?"

When he grows up, he will be forced to die.

Where did you learn this from?

Zhao Zheng blinked and said, "I know Mr. loves me."

Ying Zheng wanted to smack him.

Zhao Zheng pushed forward: "The students haven't slept well these days, sir, can you sleep with the students?"

Ying Zheng: "..."

To be honest, he was very suspicious of Zhao Zheng's motives.
