For teacher, for father

Ying Zheng was furious, and his tone was already full of murderous intent, which is rare.

Ever since he entered the huge Xianyang Palace, after the canonization ceremony——Ying Zheng knew that his position and position required his infinite endurance, and he couldn't show his murderous intentions at will.

Today, however, the boy could no longer control his burning emotions, his slender palms were tightly clenched into fists, and he stared coldly at Lao Ai who was taller than him by an unknown amount.

"A bunch of idiots, didn't you hear my order?!" Facing the shivering palace servant kneeling on the ground, Ying Zheng's anger doubled, and his tone was harsh: "Drag him out for me and chop him up! Otherwise, you will all end up with him!"

"Your Highness, calm down!—"

In the Zhengyang Palace shrouded in lights, the servants knelt all over the ground, but none of them obeyed Ying Zheng's orders, and none dared to touch the Lai Ai in the center of the hall.

Since today's dinner at the Great Government Palace, who else in Xianyang Palace does not know...Lao Ai is a guest of the Prime Minister Lu Buwei's sect, to move him is to fight against Lu Buwei.What's more, even if Lu Buwei can't do anything to Ying Zheng, then these lowly palace people will definitely be reduced to scapegoats and punching bags!

Therefore, even if they were patient and afraid of Ying Zheng's anger, no one dared to get up and act according to the boy's order.

……

"Lao Ai acted according to the prime minister's order, what crime is there? I'm afraid your highness has misunderstood the villain. These palace people... why should your highness make things difficult for them?"

The man in front of him has a handsome face, a heroic spirit, and a strong masculinity exuding from his whole body—even in the face of the future King Qin Yingzheng, Lai Ai still opened his mouth with a flat expression, bowed and saluted without hesitation. The one who was afraid faced the young man's stern expression: "Please calm down, Your Highness."

These unsalty words touched Ying Zheng's bottom line even more. The young man stood alone in a heavy and exquisite costume. Standing in the huge Zhengyang Palace, his face warmed by the lights was stained with deep resentment.

This is his bedroom, the palace he exclusively enjoys as the Prince of Qin, and his only shelter——no one thinks of him...

"... You people, do you really think that His Highness is so young and easy to deceive? The more you resist the order, the more sinful you are."

Qingming's voice broke the deadlock in the hall. The young man was only wearing a white inner garment, with an off-white silk coat on his slender shoulders. There was no trace of a smile in any of them.

Ji Hao came out slowly from the inner hall. He was tall and slender, his clothes were still a little messy, his black hair had left the jade crown and slanted down, his cheeks were slightly powdered, obviously he hadn't completely sobered up yet.

"Ji, Mrs. Ji!..."

The young man nodded, acting casually, ignoring the salutes from the palace people, and raised his head to meet the young man's eyes, his face changed slightly, his fingertips froze, and then there was a heart-piercing pain in his chest——

What did he see?

Ying Zheng's eyes were red, his lips were slightly parted, and he looked at him as if a person in distress had seized the only chance of life, unwilling to reconcile like a dying person, clenched his fists tightly, and even some crystal liquid appeared there Beside the beautiful black eyes... Ji Hao had never seen such a fragile appearance when he was in Zhao country.

Standing alone, the young man was dressed in a fine attire, his hair was tied with a jade crown, his expression was mournful, suppressed by hysterical anger and resignation, the corners of his lips were pale, which was exactly the expression of the young Shihuang now.

Ji Hao panicked for a moment, he didn't expect to see his precious child and his beloved student showing such a helpless look.In this magnificent palace, if he was not there, how many people would wantonly bully this supposedly high-ranking young man?

That emperor who has been famous throughout the ages, everyone has seen his iron-blooded and violent wrists, and who has thought about those dark growth paths full of thorns... How hard it was for Ying Zheng to walk.

……

"Zheng'er. Come here, sir."

Ji Hao tried his best to suppress the trembling in his chest, and gently stretched out his hand, with a gentle curve around his lips, he stepped forward, tightly holding the young man's cold and stiff palm, using the temperature of his own palm to relieve the pain. The opponent's depression.

"Do you still remember His Highness the Crown Prince's order?" Ji Hao took Ying Zheng with one hand, and pulled out the bronze sword that was hung for decoration on the wall of the inner room just now with the other: "I'll count to three, if there are still people kneeling here after this ..."

"Ji Hao has nothing to fear. She would rather be known by the world as a villain and a sycophant than to use your blood to appease His Highness the Crown Prince!"

"three!"

"Two!" The young man ignored the stiff and disbelieving expressions of the palace servants and Lao Ai, his tone was cold and clear, and he did not tolerate the slightest bit of disobedience.

Faint minister, sycophant, villain, traitor—he doesn't care what the posterity call him, even if he is punished by the king and demoted to a commoner the next moment. Right now, Ji Hao's head is full of young Emperor Shihuang Helpless and sad, begging him for help, with a stiff pain in his chest.

……

"Slaves, servants, obey!" The palace servants in the room gritted their teeth and stood up tremblingly from the ground after saluting. After seeing Ji Hao's indifferent and tough attitude, they had no choice but to confront the shocked Lai next to him Wu, stepped forward to press down the man's hands, and restrained them fiercely: "This man is at the mercy of His Highness!"

"..."

Ying Zheng remained silent, staring blankly at the obedient palace servants in the Zhengyang Palace, blood seemed to rush to his head, and he lost all judgment in an instant, the only thing he could feel was the sound coming from his palm. scorching heat...

The young man opened his lips helplessly, his hoarse and burning throat did not use any strength, and did not make any sound.It's just that Hei Tong stared at the young man in white next to him, fearing that he would accidentally lose him, so he called silently.

gentlemen……

"Mr. is here. Mister will not let anyone bully Zheng'er." Ji Hao lowered his head and whispered in Ying Zheng's ear.Only Ying Zheng could hear the gentle and deep voice clearly. The young man's slender body couldn't help trembling slightly, and Ji Hao held his hand tightly again.

"Mister will protect you, Zheng'er, don't be afraid, don't be afraid..."

After half-squatting down to comfort the trembling boy in his arms, Ji Hao straightened his waist, squeezed Ying Zheng's stiff fingers with his palm hidden in the loose robe, and looked at the man who was being escorted by several palace guards with a cold expression. He said coldly, "Lao Ai, are you convicted?"

"The villain is under the order of Lu Guoxiang to deliver the decoction for the adults to sober up. What is the crime? The villain doesn't know!"

Even though she was passive, Lai Ai's face remained flat, with some fear tinged on her heroic face, she forcibly raised her head and squinted at Ji Hao who was standing beside him in white.

The handsome and magnanimous Crown Prince Taifu indeed has the duty to attract people's attention, but he is also extremely hateful...

"Disobedience to His Highness, the crime is death, if you know the crime and don't admit it, the crime is death." The young man didn't care about Lai Ai's scrutiny, and raised his jaw slightly, criticizing Lai Ai's crimes unceremoniously, he was not targeting this man, It's that he can't stand a mere courtier bullying his students like this.

"Well, drag it out."

"Yes, Mrs. Ji."

Without giving Lai Ai a chance to defend herself, the palace people cast a resentful glance at the young man in white clothes holding a long sword, not daring to show any disobedience, and pushed the unconvinced Lai Ai quickly out of the brightly lit Zhengyang Palace, finally There was a silence.

The palace people couldn't help but be a little surprised that Taifu Ji, who has always been gentle and easy-going, can be so tough at times...

What's more, both Lai Ai and Ji Hao entered the palace under the recommendation of Lu Buwei. It's really strange that these two people had such a big conflict.

But compared to the court's first-rank officials and unknown retainers, as long as they had a little bit of brains, they would firmly choose to side with Ji Hao, forgetting about Lao Ai's identity.

"Why, you dare to fake my order privately, you will lose a lot this time, right?"

The man in the purple robe chuckled, and looked playfully at the messy Lai Ai who was hung in the cell.Lu Buwei couldn't help laughing and said: "Since you dare to go by yourself, tell me, what can you gain?"

"...Ji Hao is not what you said."

After being silent for a long while, Lao Ai opened her mouth silently. The wound on her body was already bleeding and torn, but because of her status as a repeat offender, no one cared about her life and death: "He doesn't seem to be...a person who can like men, my lord."

"Oh, when did I say he likes men?"

"You said you liked this person, seven years ago." Lai Ai replied a little unhappy, but she didn't expect that a small temptation would lead him to a serious crime: "Disobedience to His Royal Highness...Mr. Ji is quite cruel. Just give me such a big hat casually."

"Standard, traditional, don't care about worldly affairs... I used to be interested in such a foolish kid. But..." Lu Buwei smiled inscrutablely, ignoring the wounds all over Lai Ai's body: "Now Ji Hao is The prince's husband is a first-rank official in the Qin court, and you... a small doorman is so overbearing, it wasted my years of cultivating you."

"Yes, it's the villain's fault, you shouldn't be so impulsive."

Lai Ai bowed her head, her mind was full of the indifference of the young man when he was condemned.Dressed in white, tall, cold and open... It made him feel that the distance between him and Ji Hao was not within reach.

He even suddenly understood why Lu Buwei, as the Prime Minister of the country, was so interested in a little prince and Taifu.People... always have the best fantasies about what they can't touch and pursue.

"If you didn't mention this person often, the villain would not be so interested in Mr. Ji." The man complained, his hands were tightly bound, and Lai Ai sighed: "But you are right, he is holding a sword. It looks really beautiful."

"..." Lu Buwei pursed his lips, and didn't think too much about the man's description. He simply turned his back and didn't look at Lao Ai in the prison, but said in a gloomy voice, "Stop fantasizing, remember, Zhao The Queen is the one you should be thinking about now!"

"If you are so impulsive and troublesome again in the future, don't blame Mr. Lu for not saving you!"

"...Yes, my lord, the villain will definitely keep it in mind and live up to my lord's mission."
