Chaotic Qin

Chapter 16

"My dear daughter, you can't think like this. But whoever finds a man's favor, which woman is not powerful? You rely on the son's love and protection. If you offend the son, you will suffer in the future." Zhao Song Shi didn't think Zhao Ji was trying to fool her. Seeing her daughter's words getting worse, she hurriedly stopped her.

Zhao Ji touched her belly again, a sneer flashed across her face, and she suddenly said: "Mother, I understand that Lu Buwei and the young master are either rich or powerful, and they can't find what kind of woman they want." Yes. What am I? Even if the son likes children, he can let me have children today, and he can let other women have children tomorrow. With my background, it is not easy for the son to abolish his wife."

Zhao Songshi was even more frightened by Zhao Ji. Regardless of her being a pregnant woman, she stretched out her hand and tightly covered Zhao Ji's mouth, not letting her say another word.

Zhao Ji whimpered and hummed, but Zhao Song didn't relax at all.

The physical strength of the pregnant woman can't be compared with usual, she just feels dizzy in front of her eyes, and her stomach is throbbing.

No matter how crazy Zhao Ji's thoughts are, she also knows that what she relies on now is the piece of meat in her stomach, and she must not let it suffer any harm.

She let go of the hands that pushed Zhao Songshi away, and hugged her stomach tightly, a string of tears rolled down her eyes instantly.

When Zhao Songshi saw Zhao Ji like this, she was so frightened that she collapsed in the carriage and didn't even have the strength to call for a doctor.

I don't know how long it took, but Zhao Ji finally rushed to the pain in her abdomen and gradually subsided, but her clothes were already soaked in cold sweat, and she completely lost the arrogance just now, looking pale and weak.

Zhao Songshi carefully looked at Zhao Ji, seeing her relaxed expression, finally supported her to lie flat in the carriage, gently stroked her belly and comforted her, saying, "It's all my fault, but you can't make such a fuss in the future. My child." You are about to be born, if you let the young master hear you say these words again, nothing can protect you."

Zhao Ji nodded, wiped off the sweat from her head, and finally looked a little quiet.

When Zhao Song saw her daughter calm down, she didn't dare to say more, for fear that her long-winded words would arouse Zhao Ji's rebellious psychology.

For a moment, there were only Zhao Ji's heavy breathing and the "whoosh" sound of the cold wind entering the carriage.

When Lu Buwei bribed Gongsun Qian and the city gate guards, he said that he was going back to the hometown of Wei State, and Wei State was in the southeast of Zhao State. At this time, Zhao State was waiting for the Qin soldiers who were about to arrive. The gate can only be the most frequently used south gate between Zhao and Wei, but Qin State is in the southwest of Zhao State!

If you look at it together on a map, the geographical locations of Wei and Qin are almost in a straight east-west direction.

After Lu Buwei came out from the south gate of Handan with his men, he thought that it would not be impossible to run straight to Xianyang, but he had no confidence in the speed of these heavy-duty horses he bought for business and Zhao Guo's war horses. .

In order to prevent Gongsun Qian from immediately discovering that Qin Zichu had escaped with him and reported to the King of Zhao, and the Zhao soldiers went straight to Xianyang to pursue him, Lu Buwei simply ran along the main road to the closest distance to Zhao. The state of Wei also borders the state of Wei.

At this time, Wei State had exchanged covenants with Qin State not long ago. Although it was related to Zhao State and Wei State by marriage, the relationship between countries in the Warring States Period was both close and competitive.

King Wei was timid and fearful, and seemed unwilling to offend Qin, which was becoming more and more powerful.

Lu Buwei traveled all over the country to do business, and had a basic understanding of the situation in various countries. After a little thought, he told the coachman: "Go to the country of Wei and walk along the Yellow River."

The geographical names of this era are far from those of modern times. Qin Zichu didn't study this major, so naturally he didn't know which path Lu Buwei planned to take.

But in any case, Lu Buwei is now a grasshopper on the same rope with him. The direction Lu Buwei chose is definitely a well-thought-out and stable path. I can rest assured that Lu Buwei will take him to Qin.

Unexpectedly, Lu Buwei is indeed a careful person.

He saw the clue from Qin Zichu's face, and with a smile on his face, he carefully removed the blanket on the ground and spread it directly on the low table.

The milky white velvet blanket is dyed with brightly colored patterns. If you look closely, it turns out to be maps of various countries!

Although the drawing of the picture is abnormally distorted, it can be distorted again. This is also a map of the Warring States Period!

Qin Zichu's face turned pale in an instant. No matter how ignorant he was, he understood that maps in this era were strategic items, and private individuals were absolutely not entitled to own a map.

But when Lu Buwei put the map in front of him and explained the planned journey, Qin Zichu couldn't accuse Lu Buwei of his audacity at all, because he was the ultimate beneficiary of the map.

Qin Zichu sneered in his heart, could he, as the ultimate beneficiary, be able to obliterate Lu Buwei's ambition revealed in these small details?

With an innocent look on his face, Qin Zichu almost lay down on the blanket and memorized the place names marked on it. After a while, he looked at Lu Buwei with a look of admiration: "Teacher is really very capable. This is a wonderful picture! Kyushu is in sight!"

Even though it wasn't long before Lu Buwei frightened Qin Zichu enough, now he was suddenly surrounded by such an outstanding face with a complimenting look, Lu Buwei's mind was still half a beat behind.

He couldn't suppress his male instinct to show off at all, so he explained clearly to Qin Zichu how to draw a map of the Warring States Period.

Lu Buwei had a smug smile on his face: "Buwei travels all over the world on weekdays, and he has established a group of businessmen who are in the same situation. Because the customs of different countries are different, there are good and bad ways to treat businessmen, and many of them will be brought out inadvertently when chatting with each other. The risk of business It’s very big, if you offend the locals, it’s a trivial matter, and you might lose your life. Buwei simply wrote down the towns he’s heard of on this blanket, so as to remind himself not to violate local taboos, Unexpectedly, after years of accumulation, the whole world is actually condensed on this blanket."

Qin Zichu knew the representative value of the content drawn on this blanket, and he knew how Lu Buwei embraced him.

Even if he asked for it, Lu Buwei would not give it to him, but he couldn't take the picture away, so it would be hot to ask for it.

Qin Zichu simply showed the look of a bumpkin looking at a treasure, and he went back and forth a few times, and then put the map back to Lu Buwei with a look of reluctance.

He said in his mouth: "This thing is too precious, the Taifu must keep it well. When it is presented to the lord in Xianyang, the lord will be overjoyed and add an official to the lord."

When Lu Buwei heard Qin Zichu's words, he felt that this was the case.

He has an unspeakable ambition in his heart. He looks at and caresses this map every day, and he has already memorized the map in his mind. Even if he dedicates the map to the King of Qin, he can draw the same one again.

So instead of keeping the map in your hands, sell it for a good price!

Lu Buwei hurriedly bowed to Qin Zichu: "Thank you for reminding me, my lord."

Qin Zichu laughed carelessly, turned his head and approached Lu Buwei and said softly: "The prince has many sons, and it sounds very delicate for a foreigner to be a prince and grandson in Zhao, but if he returns to the country, he will be completely submerged among all the brothers." It doesn't show anything special anymore. The Tai Tuo will give me more support when the time comes."

Lu Buwei was even happier when he heard Qin Zichu's words.

The more Qin Zichu explained that he still needed his help in the future, the more he could prove that Qin Zichu had no real ability to kick him away.

The past that Qin Zichu deliberately mentioned before was immediately classified by Lu Buwei as Qin Zichu was young and nervous, and he was afraid that he would invest in other princes and grandchildren once he returned to China, so he told himself in advance not to have two hearts.

Lu Buwei didn't show it on his face, but he was really happy in his heart.

Ever since Lu Buwei saw clearly the difference in status between himself and Qin Zichu, although he obviously stopped thinking about in-depth communication with Qin Zichu, but in his heart, out of a purely masculine idea, he still very much hoped that Qin Zichu would rely on him in everything and could not do without himself at all.

Therefore, seeing that Qin Zichu didn't ask about Zhangli's whereabouts when he asked, on the one hand, he was grateful for his trust in him, but at the same time, he was even more afraid that Qin Zichu would turn around and settle accounts with him.

Lu Buwei was terrified by this for some days.

At this time, the timing was just right, Lu Buwei hurriedly expressed his heart to Qin Zichu: "If you don't give up, Mr. Wei Meng, you will die for your son."

Qin Zichu held Lu Buwei's hands, and said seriously: "Teacher must take care of himself. How the Tutor treats other people, the other person will repay him a hundred times, so that the Tai Tutor's expectations of glory will come true."

Lu Buwei was even more moved in his heart, and was coaxed by Qin Zichu not to delve into the meaning of his words at all.

Qin Zichu took the opportunity to say, "It's really stuffy in the carriage. If the master is not cold, can you open the window to let me breathe?"

"Master, you feel bored, why didn't you say it earlier?" Lu Buwei said and hurriedly opened the window for Qin Zichu.

Seeing the "woman" in the pink shirt fascinated Lu Buwei, Zhao Ji, who was sitting in the back car, was so angry that her nose was crooked.
