Chaotic Qin

Chapter 186 Suspicion

Qin Zichu smiled and did not respond.

Having been together for many years, if Ying Zheng really considered imprisoning him before, then he has now regarded this sentence as a sweet love sentence, and only said it to Qin Zichu when he was acting like a baby.

He nestled in Ying Zheng's arms, allowing Ying Zheng to unfold his body, trying his best to indulge, and the whole process was extremely gentle.

Ying Zheng stroked Qin Zichu's back, a satisfied smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

He leaned forward and kissed Qin Zichu's cheek, and his fingertips returned to Qin Zichu's body where countless marks had been left.

"So tired that he fell asleep." Ying Zheng sighed again.

He pondered for a moment, and after helping Qin Zichu pull the quilt tightly, he got up and called the palace servants to put on the crown clothes and leave the dormitory, back to the front yard.

The entire courtyard is closely guarded by CRRC guards, not even a mouse that steals its mouth can come in and out at will.

"Zhao Tuo, how is your injury?" Ying Zheng stopped before stepping out of the second door.

His gaze fell on Zhao Tuo who was kneeling on the ground with a group of CRRC guards, and asked in a low voice with some concern.

Zhao Tuo blushed with excitement, and hurriedly replied: "My lord, it's just that I was dislocated when I was thrown out by that strong man. The imperial doctor connected my arm on the same day, and the root cause of the disease will never be left. "

Ying Zheng nodded, with a look of satisfaction in his eyes, and comforted Zhao Tuo, "It was not your fault that you couldn't resist that strong man. Don't blame yourself. I still have tasks for you to handle."

Hearing this, how can Zhao Tuo be unhappy?

He kowtowed immediately, and said seriously: "The guards of CRRC are willing to lay their hearts and minds on the ground for the lord, and will never regret a hundred deaths! Please order the lord!"

Ying Zheng waved his hand and gave Zhao Tuo a hint to follow him.

Zhao Tuo got up immediately and followed closely behind Ying Zheng.

Even in the courtyard, Zhao Tuo's expression was very vigilant, and he didn't think that accidents would never happen just because he was in a safe environment.

Yingzheng walked and said in a low voice: "When I came to Pei County, I felt that the guards here were very lax. You go and summon the county magistrate, county magistrate, county lieutenant, pavilion chief, and jailer to check. Are there any of these people who take advantage of their positions to seek personal gain and oppress the people? If they are found out, they will be punished severely; those who do their best to fulfill their duties should also be recommended."

At this time, only ten thousand households can be called county magistrates, and less than ten thousand households can be called county magistrates.

Although Pei County covers a vast area and has outstanding people, it is a small county with a population of less than [-] households. The officials in charge of this county have no chance to be a county magistrate, and can only be a pitiful "county head".

Therefore, Zhao Tuo really couldn't understand why the king would want to find talents from this place to be promoted.

But he is not a talkative person.

On the contrary, Zhao Tuo is still a very conscientious person.

Therefore, he never refuted Yingzheng's request, but only made the best of the orders issued by the lord.

After receiving Ying Zheng's order, Zhao Tuo immediately handed over his hands and left to deal with the matter.

In Wu Ji's restaurant, Liu Bang threw away a shriveled soybean, frowning with anger.

The young man beside him gave Liu Bang a push, and said loudly: "Brother, why are you frowning, there is something inconvenient, brother will clean up those little bastards who can't stop for you."

After listening to Xia Houying's words, Liu Bang forced a smile, but the corners of his mouth soon fell back to their original positions.

He whispered: "You can't control this matter, don't interfere."

After finishing speaking, Liu Bang's expression became more serious.

He looked around the wine shop, and after making sure that no one was paying attention to the four of them, he lowered his voice and said, "A few days ago, I picked up a foreigner with a Zhao Guo accent. The little master of the Chinese people. I saw that he didn’t look like an ordinary person. I took him into the city with the intention of making friends, and temporarily sent him to Wu Ji’s wine shop to let him have a rest. But when I came back from the camp On the way, Wu Ji hurriedly asked someone to send me a message, saying that the boy with a Zhao accent rushed to Qin Wangzheng on his own initiative, and was carried away by Qin Wangzheng on his horse with great compassion—— Don't you think this matter is too strange?"

Tuzi and Xia Houying, who didn't understand these entanglements, were dumbfounded when they heard Liu Bang's words.

Xia Houying was even more of an open-mouthed reckless man.

He blurted out: "Brother, do you think that little brother with a Zhao Guo accent is the one I heard them mention? The one who is as beautiful as a woman? ——Could he be Qin Wangzheng's prostitute in the first place? , think we have a lot of people in Jingchu, Pei County, and deliberately lied to you?"

Xiao He, who had been sitting silently on his seat, glared at Xia Houying immediately, and said in a deep voice, "Aying, be careful!"

Xia Houying blushed embarrassingly under Xiao He's words.

After a while, he scratched his head, and lowered his voice to distinguish: "Don't you believe what I said - hasn't the elder brother seen it too? If it doesn't look good, he is such a foreigner who has only met his brothers once, can he The whole county is about to know how good-looking she is? Wu Ji is pretty enough, it is said that the young man's appearance and figure are incomparable to ten Wu Ji. A man who grows up to such a virtue, is also personally judged by Qin Wangzheng. It wasn't this kind of relationship, who would believe it?"

Xia Houying's words were very vulgar, but it made sense; but Liu Bang just had a feeling in his heart that things were not like this.

He shook his head hesitantly, and said again: "The little brother told me that he was a scholar. Aren't scholars all arrogant? How could he be used as a pet?"

As Liu Bang said, he glanced at Xiao He who was "high-minded and arrogant".

Xiao He, who usually doesn't like being teased, was rarely angry this time, and he also frowned, with a hesitant expression.

The four of them couldn't help but fell silent.

After a while, Xiao He suddenly said: "I heard that after the king sent troops to destroy South Korea and Zhao, he moved all the survivors of the two countries to Xianyang City to take care of them. An outstanding young man enters the palace to study. Speaking of it, would Aying’s words be correct, and what the young man told the eldest brother was also the truth—Qin Wangzheng is already in his twenties this year, although there are many concubines in the East Palace, but But he still hasn't married his wife."

Once people's guesses are clouded by love affairs, things will naturally deviate from the original intention.

As soon as Xiao He's guess came out, the faces of the other three present couldn't help flashing ambiguous expressions.

Xiao He paused for a moment, as if thinking of something, he continued: "The young man I met should be telling the truth. There was a young man who was about sixteen or seventeen who came to the county government office speaking authentic Chu official dialect. , I must meet the county magistrate. I came to see the county magistrate at that time and saw it with my own eyes. She is also a graceful beauty."

Xia Houying curled her lips, let out a "bah", and taunted in a low voice: "Although our state of Chu was destroyed by the state of Qin, no man would praise Qin Wangzheng, who destroyed the six states, as 'he is a character'. I really didn't expect it. , he actually likes this."

Xiao He looked at Xia Houying, picked up the wine bowl and swallowed lightly.

He said nonchalantly: "When you reach the position of the lord, there are only things in the world that he doesn't want to do, and there is nothing he can't do. Let alone find a few male favorites, even if it is a big construction project to collect all the beauties in Kyushu Isn't singing every night just a matter of one sentence?"

Xiao He's words were meaningless.

None of the four people present got married, and they all bowed their heads for a while, drinking and eating small dishes, and they all lost the mood to talk and laugh.

Suddenly there was the sound of orderly footsteps along the way, followed by people running past the wine shop with their heads bowed, no one dared to stay longer.

Xia Houying got up and glanced out.

Afterwards, he swaggered back to his seat and sat down, and said bluntly, "I don't know what I'm afraid of. Could it be that those Qin soldiers dare to break in and arrest people while we're drinking?"

Before the words were finished, the soldiers of the Qin army who were wandering in the street suddenly noticed the bustling wine shop.

The captain raised his chin, and they walked over directly.

"Is Liu Ji here?" The leading Qin soldier asked directly.

He didn't walk in to take advantage of the store like the original army of Chu State, but stood in a well-mannered manner outside the restaurant door, blocking Liu Bang's way without moving.

Liu Bang laughed immediately, stepped forward and cupped his hands in a very good-tempered manner, and said calmly, "I'm Liu Ji, I don't know why Shangguan asked me for it?"

The so-called "reach out and don't hit smiling people", but the Qin soldiers who led the team didn't seem to see the kind smile on Liu Bang's face.

He waved his hand vigorously, and directly commanded the soldiers behind him: "Received my Daqin salary, but frequently fled and absented himself from duty, take him away!"

With a sound of "Boom!", the low table was overturned by Xia Houying to the ground.

He walked directly in front of Qin Jun, raised his head arrogantly and shouted: "I want to see, who dares to touch my eldest brother Xia Houying?"

Qin Jun's team looked expressionlessly at the three people who gradually gathered around Liu Bang.

Suddenly, the team leader pointed at Xiao He and said in surprise, "You are jailer Xiao He? According to the county magistrate, you have handled your duties very well, and you have registered for the scientific examination. You have a bright future, why should you mix with criminals who are absent from duty?" One place? The lord of the country is about to reward you, so get out of the way."

As soon as these words were uttered, Xia Houying and Tu Zi looked at Xiao He with a changed look, and there was even a sense of defense and malice in them.

For a while, even Liu Bang's expression was a little subtle.

As a jailer, Xiao He is usually accompanied by prisoners who are good at pretending to be crazy and foolish, and he has the ability to distinguish people's expressions.

At this moment, he saw all the expressions of Liu Bang and the others, and couldn't help but put a self-deprecating smile on his face.

Xiao He thought to himself: Brothers for many years, they can share hardships but can't share joys, isn't that what they say?

The expressions of Liu Bang and the three of them made Xiao He's teeth cold. Unexpectedly, seeing Xiao He standing still, the captain of the Qin Army team thought that his heart was shaken, and persuaded him again: "Xiao He, you don't have to participate in this matter, go back and wait for the country to wait." The Lord summons you. I, Daqin, clearly distinguish between rewards and punishments, you and Liu Bang are neither related nor related, and his problems will never involve you."

As soon as the leading soldier of the Qin State squad uttered the words "not relatives, not relatives", Xiao He instantly keenly discovered that the three of Liu Bang rejected him even more.

He smiled wryly, knowing that he might not do well if he stayed here today—compared with himself as a scholar, Liu Bang, who likes to make trouble, and Xia Houying, who has a bad temper, and Tu Zi, who has a good kung fu, are more congenial.

Xiao He naturally had the arrogance of a literati, seeing Liu Bang like this, he just cupped his hands and walked out of the wine shop with a sullen face.
