Chaotic Qin

Qin Zichu was puzzled by the manservant's behavior, and felt that he deliberately let himself find out that something was wrong.

Therefore, Qin Zichu kept smiling on purpose, as if he didn't notice anything wrong, he walked up to the servant and helped him up, and said gently, "Are you not injured?"

The male servant was shaking like chaff, bowed his head desperately, not daring to speak, he tried his best to break free from Qin Zichu's palm, pushed him hard, and put on a posture of rushing out the door.

Now even Zhao Ji's mother and son could see that something was wrong. Zhao Ji's mother was so frightened that her face turned pale. She stood in front of Zhao Ji, and suddenly pointed at the servant she brought and screamed: "You are still waiting for me!" What? Hold him down!"

The desperately strong slave instantly grabbed the male servant who had broken the glass and brought the drink, and pressed him hard on the ground. Unexpectedly, after being caught, the male servant seemed to have lost his will to live, lying on the ground panting loudly He stood there without moving, without struggling at all.

Both Zhao Ji and her mother were women with no opinions. At this time, Qin Zichu was the only adult man in the courtyard. His eyes naturally fell on him, waiting for Qin Zichu to deal with him.

Qin Zichu smiled reassuringly, and said softly, "Ma'am, don't be afraid, I don't think he has any malicious intentions, otherwise he wouldn't turn around and run away as soon as he saw me, instead of rushing up to attack us. Even if there is malicious intent , This powerless appearance doesn't seem to be able to hurt people."

Zhao Ji and her mother immediately relaxed after hearing these words, but Zhao Ji's joy of seeing her biological mother before was also washed away, and she was no longer in the mood to chat.

Qin Zichu looked at their mother and daughter, and after pondering for a moment, he said gently: "Since the old lady has fallen out of favor with Dr. Zhao, can you follow me back to the mansion to take care of Zhao Ji for a while. You know that I am a young man, no matter how considerate and meticulous I am." There are many things that are not well thought out, and if Zhao Ji is handed over to others, Yiren can't rest assured."

The middle-aged woman blushed with excitement, kept nodding vigorously, and said without hesitation: "Young master has a heart for my concubine's daughter, and my concubine is old and decrepit, and my husband's family has long forgotten my concubine. The old woman will go back with the young master immediately, and she must take good care of her daughter so that she can give birth to this baby safely."

Qin Zichu bowed to Zhao Ji's mother and said sincerely, "Thank you, old lady."

Zhao Ji's mother hurriedly avoided her, and said softly: "Young Master, you can call me Zhao Song Shi. The old woman is not a noble person, let alone Dr. Zhao's wife. In the future, she is willing to be a servant by Madam's side, no It will make things difficult for the son."

Qin Zichu saluted the old lady again, turned around and looked at the man who had been suppressed by the male servants. After pondering for a moment, he waved to the male servants and said, "You guys help the lady get into the carriage first, I have something to ask him."

The male servants looked at each other, and together with the servants in the courtyard, they helped carry Zhao Song's luggage into the car, and hurried out of the courtyard.

Zhao Ji and her mother also looked at Qin Zichu curiously, and when he smiled and waved at them, Zhao Ji met his warm and tolerant gaze, blushed, obediently asked the maid to wait on her and sat in the carriage.

The yard where Mrs. Zhao Song had just been placed was empty for a few days, and Qin Zichu stood in front of the male servant who was trying to escape without saying a word.

The manservant did not speak, nor did he make a sound.

The two sides were silent for a long time, the servant finally let out a long sigh, got up resignedly, and patted off the dust on the old clothes. He was obviously still wearing tattered clothes full of patches, but his whole demeanor had changed.

When the male servant stood up, he was full of demeanor, no matter what, he would no longer be mistaken for an unhappy servant.

The middle-aged man smiled faintly at Qin Zichu, and bowed his hands together: "My Xia Zhangli was originally the counselor of a young general under the command of Lord Wu An of the Qin State. Hey, he is a scholar who is useless. During the Battle of Changping, I got lost with the army. , was caught by soldiers of Zhao State, and later lied that he had offended a doctor in Wei State because he did not want to sell his fertile land, so he survived when Zhao State stepped up the search after the war."

Qin Zichu looked at Zhangli calmly, and said gently: "If Mister wants to go with someone else, there is no need to make such a fuss at all. Is there any unspeakable secret?"

Appreciative eyes appeared in Zhang Li's eyes, he took two quick steps forward, knelt down in front of Qin Zichu with a "bang", and kowtowed three times vigorously: "Young master, please return home as soon as possible."

These words are so confusing.

Of course Qin Zichu wanted to return to China as soon as possible, but it was obviously not something he could do alone. Returning from Zhao to Qin was a long way away, and he had to avoid the searches of the house and the soldiers guarding the gate of Handan. easy.

He looked at Zhangli and asked, "Why did you say that, sir? If you have something to say, you might as well just say it."

Zhang Li kowtowed three times again: "After the first battle in Changping, the 40 soldiers of Zhao State were slaughtered by the order of Lord Wu An, and everyone in the whole country hated Lord Wu An to the bone. Because I can read a few words, I think about the most dangerous place. Convenience is the safest place, and he hid in Pingyuan Jun’s mansion under a pseudonym to be a doorman. Therefore, I learned that when he was almost broken through the gate of Handan, Lord Pingyuan asked the doormen who could return to Qin Dynasty. Although there were many doormen, no one dared to answer. Coincidentally At this time, Su Dai, who had a good tongue, was a guest at Lord Pingyuan's mansion, showing that he could retire from Qin Dynasty. When I saw him, I didn't say anything. I only thought that Su Dai was a liar who didn't deserve the name, and never thought that Lord Pingyuan was drunk later. Confidential events of the past—Su Dai took the gold, silver, pearls and jade provided by Lord Pingyuan to Fan Sui, the Prime Minister who was regarded as the guest of honor by the Lord, and said, "If Lord Wu'an captures Handan, he will be No. 1 in the Lord's heart, and there will be no other A place to stand'. Fan Sui came to our country from the state of Wei to avenge Wei Qi with the help of the lord of the country. He is not from my country of Qin. He finally climbed to such a high position, and he was terrified. How can he allow Lord Wu An to threaten him? Status. Therefore, Fan Sui knew nothing about military affairs, but he spoke to the lord and deceived him into accepting the cession of territory between Zhao and South Korea for peace. The master and minister are at odds."

"What does this have to do with you constantly bowing down to me now? Sir, you should know that foreign people can't help themselves in Zhao Guo." Qin Zichu frowned in embarrassment.

He stretched out his hand to support Zhang Li's arm, but Zhang Li broke free from Qin Zichu's support, and forced his head to bleed: "Young Master, I don't know, I heard the news from Mr. Pingyuan's side a few days ago, that Mr. Wu'an is seriously ill and cannot Going to war, the king appointed Wang Ling as the general to attack Zhao again, but General Lianpo was the one defending the city, and Wang Ling was by no means his opponent. At that time, the king would definitely summon Lord Wu'an to come again. If Zhao couldn't retreat The enemy, like last time, will bribe Fan Sui to slander the lord. Lord Wu An is at stake! After I heard about this, I had no choice but to make such a bad plan. I heard that the son took his wife's mother out of Dr. Zhao's residence and mixed into the old lady's house to look I want to be able to see the young master. Heaven has eyes, and finally let me see the young master and tell all these things."

Qin Zichu still hasn't figured out who this "Mr. Wu'an" is, so he couldn't help asking: "Why did you say that, sir?"

"Mr. Wu'an conquered more than [-] cities, and he has already made great achievements. If the lord is instigated by others, he will never just abandon Lord Wu'an and use him. He will definitely be given to death. Lord Wu'an is loyal to the king. If it is because of this The death of hundreds of thousands of soldiers in our Qin State, how will we deal with ourselves in the future! Our Great Qin seeks the title of title with military exploits, and no man does not honor killing the enemy and making meritorious deeds when he becomes an adult. Once a loyal general dies for such a reason, the morale of the army will be unstable. I'm afraid it will be unfavorable in the future war! Please return to the country quickly while Handan is not closed, and bring your words to the lord to save Lord Wu'an's life." After Zhang Li finished speaking, he looked at Qin Zichu with eyes full of hope.

Qin Zichu nodded, and when he heard "Lianke more than seventy cities", he finally understood that the "Wu'an Lord" Zhang Li was talking about was Bai Qi, the god of war in Qin.

Later generations said that Bai Qi's death was not caused by war. If the things Zhang Li said were true, then he was indeed wronged.

Qin Zichu was willing to save Bai Qi if he had the chance. He solemnly helped Zhangli up, bowed down and thanked him, and said, "Thank you sir for reminding me that the stranger has benefited a lot. But during this time, I have to continue to wronged Mr. Become a servant, and return to Xianyang with me in the future."

Qin Zichu looked at Zhangli seriously, never thought that he would shake his head and refuse: "I am grateful for your benevolence, Mr. Pingyuan, but Mr. Pingyuan took me in when I was in trouble. It is a kindness to my life. I will pass the news I got from him. Telling the young master, but it is unjust. Zhangli has no face to live in this world again..."

Qin Zichu interrupted Zhang Li's words in an instant, and said with a serious expression: "Sir, since you also know that Fan Sui can provoke the lord of the country to be angry with Lord Wu'an by virtue of his penetrating tongue, so that the monarch and his ministers are at odds, it can be seen that Fan Sui is in the country The weight in the heart of the Lord. If this is the case, why do you think that the Lord will believe my words and doubt Fan Xiangguo when there is no witness? Please don't have the idea of ​​committing suicide for the time being, sir, and return to the country with me to report to the Lord. This matter."

Zhangli was still hesitating, but Qin Zichu had already pulled him up from the ground, and said in a tone that could not be refused: "Sir, don't think about it anymore, if you are not here, if the king doesn't believe me, you will still be provoked by traitors. Lord Wu An is in danger and we cannot escape the blame!"

Zhang Li finally resigned himself to his fate and got up, his straight body suddenly became sluggish, his stature was slumped, his temperament was shy, and with his kowtow and messy bun, it was as if Qin Zichu blocked him in an empty yard and beat him hard a meal.

Looking at Zhangli's appearance, Qin Zichu couldn't help but chuckled, and shouted on purpose: "Slave, don't you want to get beaten?!" Immediately, he took a big step and walked out of the yard. .

Zhao Ji didn't wait for Zichu in the carriage for a long time, but her heart was beating wildly, and she always felt very uneasy in the airtight carriage. When she saw Qin Zichu coming back, she threw herself into his arms and held him tightly.

"What's the matter?" Qin Zichu asked aloud.

Zhao Ji looked carefully at Qin Zichu's face, and seeing that the anger on his face was still there, she said softly and coquettishly: "I feel sick to my stomach, and I miss you even more."

Zhao Ji's complexion was rosy, and Qin Zichu knew that she was not in any discomfort at a glance, but it was obvious that Zhao Ji had already understood from his attitude that she valued the fetus and used it.

Qin Zichu held Zhao Ji's hand, held her in his arms, stroked Zhao Ji's flat stomach together, and raised his doubts all along: "When did the madam end her last menstruation?"

Zhao Ji's face turned pale for a moment, and then turned red again. She couldn't help but raised her voice and shouted: "I will come to your house in early March, and it will end on April [-]th!"

It is exactly the same as Qin Shihuang's birth date!

Exactly 280 days due date!

Qin Zichu couldn't help showing a smirk on his face, and quickly coaxed Zhao Ji: "Madam is thinking too much. The inner courtyard of the Qin Palace has a secret method to calculate a woman's birth. I want to guess the date of birth of a child."

Zhao Ji listened to him, but still didn't believe her, she said stubbornly, "Then tell me, when will the child be born?"

"The 27th of the first lunar month." Qin Zichu said confidently.

The obstetrics and gynecology knowledge I learned from my ex-boyfriend has finally been put into practice by me!
