Chaotic Qin

Chapter 20

Lu Buwei's voice was not low, everyone in the caravan heard him clearly.

Many of the servants in the caravan were recruited from Handan to escape the war, and Lu Buwei's real confidants were less than ten.

As early as the first time when they were surrounded by soldiers of Zhao State for inspection, the hired workers of Zhao State had their minds fluttering. Now when they heard Lu Buwei's words, they felt that something big had happened, and they all whispered to each other to refresh the gossip they knew.

"You all go." Lu Buwei waved his hands, showing a disheartened look, waving his hands to the servants recruited by the caravan, and his confidant held a knife to protect Lu Buwei.

All of a sudden, the people who had originally moved did not dare to move.

There were still strong vibrations coming from the ground one after another, and the sound of the horse's hooves became more and more clear. Finally, a young man shouted loudly: "What are we waiting for, waiting to die? Run away!"

Before the words were finished, the young man had already fled desperately into the woods. Seeing that Lu Buwei did not stop them, the remaining hired workers exchanged a few glances with each other and rushed towards the forest, as if rushing into the forest would save them from disaster like.

There are fewer and fewer people in the caravan, and there is less time for a cup of tea. The remaining people are only a few of Lu Buwei's confidantes.

He raised his chin to his confidant, and the curtain of the carriage where Zhao Ji and Qin Zichu were was immediately lifted.

Qin Zichu didn't know what Lu Buwei was going to do, but when Lu Buwei deliberately let the hired servants escape, he felt a chill in his heart.

Qin Zichu suddenly realized the purpose of Lu Buwei's actions.

As long as these people run away, Lu Buwei will be able to stay where he is, and wait for the Zhao soldiers to arrive. He will tell with aggrieved face that his caravan has been mixed with Qin Wangsun's spies, and they have fled with Qin Wangsun up!

At that time, the soldiers of Zhao State were only concerned about Qin Wangsun and the child born with a vision, so how could they check carefully who was left in Lu Buwei's caravan?

As long as the children get through this moment without crying or fussing, they are immediately safe.

... But would Lu Buwei really take the risk of keeping a child who would suddenly cry at some point? !

Qin Zichu lowered his eyes and gently shook the child who had just been wrapped in his arms, and there was nothing unusual on his face.

He lowered his head and pressed his lips against the top of the boy's head, and the fluffy fetal hair gently brushed against his sensitive lips, bringing a slight itching and numbness, which made Qin Zichu's mouth smile slightly, and he felt much more at ease.

Before Qin Zichu came here, there was no child born in his family.

He didn't know what the baby would look like when it was born, but the baby in his arms made him unable to put it down.

The baby's skin is pink and tender, and the forehead is covered with thick fetal hair. Although the eyes are closed, there are clear double eyelid folds on the eyelids, the straight nose bridge has begun to take shape, and the diamond-shaped lips are sharp and angular, and the lip color is healthy Runhong.

He slept soundly curled up in the package, and his quiet posture made people forget the troubles and sorrows in front of him at the first sight.

Qin Zichu turned back, looked at the boy resting quietly with his eyes closed, and said in a low voice: "The child born in the first month is called Ah Zheng. Ying Zheng, you are the blood of my Ying clan, and you will surely hold power and rule the world .”

Zhao Ji was lying in the bedding, although she was a little pale, she was quite energetic.

But now, she didn't see any joy on her face, she nervously grabbed Qin Zichu's palm, and kept looking out.

Qin Zichu did not reveal Zhao Ji's thoughts, and after patting her comfortingly on the back of her hand a few times, he continued to gently coax Ying Zheng, which made Zhao Ji want to push him away anxiously.

Lu Buwei stood silently outside the carriage, looking at Qin Zichu's satisfied and happy expression.

He frowned, and suddenly said: "My lord is still young, and there will be many children in the future. Why do you have to use this one? Babies don't understand us. If Zhao soldiers come after us, as soon as he is born , we are all going to die in Huangquan."

Qin Zichu said coldly without raising his eyes: "Then what does the Taifu mean, do you dare to say it directly?"

Lu Buwei pursed his lips, and said hesitantly: "Although Buwei's men are not many, they serve me wholeheartedly and are loyal. If I send someone to take the child and flee, and deliberately make the child cry endlessly on the way, then my son Have a safe journey."

Before Qin Zichu could answer, Zhao Ji snatched the baby boy from his arms, supported her weak body, forcibly stood up and walked in front of Lu Buwei, and directly stuffed the baby into his arms!

Zhao Ji said nervously and loudly: "Here is the child, let's run away. Don't wait any longer!"

Lu Buwei showed a somewhat veiled look of disgust towards Zhao Ji, but without any hesitation in his movements, he changed hands and stuffed the little baby into the arms of a mature male servant.

He whispered: "Send him away, take care of yourself, if you can come back alive..."

"Who said you can send my son away?!" Qin Zichu stood up abruptly, with cold anger burning in his eyes.

He gritted his teeth and said every word.

Qin Zichu looked at the middle-aged man who was holding a baby boy in his arms, and his eyes were pierced into the man's chest by two weapons. The man was so frightened that he couldn't help taking a few steps back, and hugged the baby in his arms tightly to seek comfort.

"Give me the baby." Qin Zichu jumped out of the car, stopped a few steps in front of the man, and stretched out his arm to him.

The male servant didn't hesitate at all, and hurriedly threw the child to Qin Zichu, avoiding his sight.

Raising his hand to rub the baby boy's back for a while, Qin Zichu made sure he didn't scare the baby, then kissed his chubby pink face, and finally looked at Lu Buwei and Zhao Ji.

He smiled softly: "If you are afraid of death, go away. I will not give up my child. It is not a man who asks him to exchange his life for his own."

Lu Buwei stretched out his hand to grab Qin Zichu's arm, and suddenly pulled him back to his side, roaring dissatisfiedly: "What do you mean, my lord?"

Qin Zichu laughed nonchalantly, and said calmly, "It's literally."

Lu Buwei's face turned red with anger, and the veins on his forehead twitched violently.

He shook his hands and tried to suppress his anger, panting and said: "Master, you really think so? If so, why did you deliberately mention the agreement between us when you just escaped from Handan City. Buwei put all his wealth and life under pressure. On Young Master. Young Master, do you know that you brought the child to stay, and Buwei lost his family and property before coming out for Young Master, so all previous efforts will be wasted!"

Lu Buwei thought that Qin Zichu would definitely show a guilty and timid expression, and then retracted, but he didn't expect that Qin Zichu raised the corners of his mouth, showing an appearance as if he was trying to restrain himself from laughing out loud.

The anger in Lu Buwei's heart burned even more fiercely, and he finally couldn't help shouting: "Young master always speaks straight! There is no time to waste now."

Qin Zichu nodded, with a sharp sarcasm in his smile: "I'm afraid the Taifu doesn't remember what he told me when he was drunk—you went to Qin State and got more than 6000 gold from Mrs. Huayang and the crown prince. The queen also took out a ladder of more than 4000 gold. The Tai Tuo told me, how did the big businessman Lu Buwei, who was worth only two thousand gold, go bankrupt? I think the God of Wealth may not be able to make money as quickly as you, Lu Buwei."

Lu Buwei's face was flushed red by Qin Zichu's anger, but now he suddenly exposed the huge profits he had made from it, his face turned green and red, and he couldn't hold back his face at all.

Qin Zichu was right, even if the two of them parted ways, he would still benefit hugely!

Qin Zichu did not pursue Lu Buwei fiercely.

He softened his voice, and the smile on his face became much softer. He sighed and said, "Lu Buwei, you and I have met each other and know each other well. In fact, you insist on helping me return to the Qin Dynasty. After all, it is for profit. But if I can give up my son today, how can I let go of you who forced me to abandon my son in the future? It is better to separate, and everyone will be at their own pace in the future. Zhao Ji still has love for you, you If you don't mind, then letting her come back to you will give her something to rely on for the rest of her life. I want to be with Ah Zheng, and I will never give up on him."

Lu Buwei stood where he was, the persistence on his face quietly receded, and finally turned into a sigh.

He stared at Qin Zichu blankly for a while, and finally urged his confidantes to sort out the most valuable things, boarded the car and left.

Suddenly, Lu Buwei threw a bag of gold to Qin Zichu, and said: "Since you know how Buwei is, you know that Buwei has always been kind to others. You are alone with a baby and have no means of earning a living. Please keep the gold for later use."

Qin Zichu took the purse, looked at Lu Buwei with a smile, finally showed a slight smile on his face, and said gently: "Businessman Lu is so precious. See you someday."

Lu Buwei savored Qin Zichu's "see you someday" carefully, and felt that Qin Zichu had no possibility of escaping if he were separated from him, but he still said: "Young master, please take care of it, and Buwei will take a step first."

After the words fell, Lu Buwei left with the caravan.

Apart from Qin Zichu's baggage and a pack of snacks, Qin Zichu didn't even leave an ox cart behind.

Qin Zichu stood where he was, as if he had completely given up resistance, and watched Lu Buwei and his party urge the bull to run away.

When they finally left his sight, Qin Zichu finally moved his palms covering the baby boy's face, and looked at his cute sleepy face with a relaxed smile.

"My dear son, don't make a sound, let's hide."

Qin Zichu took out a change of robes from the bundle, tore one into strips, and wrapped Ying Zheng around his chest; the other was torn in half into four large pieces of cloth, and wrapped them layer by layer on the soles of his feet.

Step by step, he carefully followed the direction of the way he came, and got into the bushes.

There was no one around in the wilderness. Although Qin Zichu had a good sense of direction and memory, he didn't have a positioning tool in his hand, and the road under his feet was getting more and more deviated uncontrollably.

Fortunately, his method worked. There was a lot of cloth wrapped under his feet, and he walked without leaving any traces. The Zhao soldiers who came to arrest Qin Wangsun did not chase him in the direction he left.

Unfortunately, it's okay for a big man like Qin Zichu to be hungry, but the child in his arms should be hungry anyway.

Qin Zichu finally stopped, resting against a big tree, untied the cloth rope on his chest, and looked at his son.

The soft palm of the baby boy stretched out his mouth, biting his thumb and sucking, and the transparent saliva stained his chin and chest.

He was obviously hungry, but he didn't make a sound.

People are a bit mean, if a child is crying and fussing, it can't be coaxed, he must be bored, but a child like Ying Zheng makes Qin Zichu's heart ache terribly.

He quickly pulled out Ying Zheng's finger, quickly chewed up a small piece of snack, and fed it into the boy's mouth mouth to mouth.

"Ah!" Qin Zichu's tongue hurt, and a look of surprise flashed through his eyes.

He couldn't help reaching out and touching Ying Zheng's slightly opened mouth, and suddenly found that the baby boy had six neat teeth on his gums!
