Raiders in the days of Qin Shi Huang

It was raining at dusk, a man was standing on the wet ground, he was holding an umbrella in his hand, and the rain was beating on the surface of the umbrella, it was not disturbing to hear such sounds everywhere in this weather.

The cornices are dark red, and the floor tiles are dark gray. They were not bright colors at first, but now they are covered with water, but they seem to be coated with a layer of light.

The eunuch followed behind him, silent all the way.

The sound of human footsteps was low, only the sound of rain, hitting the ground, the eaves, and the wall, very clearly.Birds are afraid of getting their feathers wet and refuse to come out in such weather. The maid has nothing to do and naturally stays quietly with the master indoors, so it is quiet here. There are no more men in the courtyard except for a few attendants. other people.

At this moment, the window was opened, and there was a woman sitting there. She saw the person and smiled: "I came to see my concubine as soon as I came back. This is a surprise!"

The man stood in the rain and looked at her. The drizzle was like a tulle, and everything on a rainy day carried a clear coolness, only the man in the window was hazy.

The man stood in the rain and stared at the woman for a long time. Looking at her slender and beautiful eyebrows, soft facial features, and black hair, he felt only peace in his heart.

The woman in the window propped up the window, and looked at him with a smile, as if it was a painting, and the man looked at her as if admiring a painting.

The man is standing in the rain, holding an umbrella, and the woman is sitting in front of the window and looking sideways at the people outside the window. She wears a big red flower in her hair, as if she just picked it, wearing a bit of vitality .

After a while, she said, "What is Your Majesty doing standing outside? After finally coming back, why don't you come in and have a cup of tea with your concubine?"

The man just smiled, took a step, and walked inside.

The maid opened the door, and the woman was standing at the door with a smile on her lips. Damn, I don't know when it will stop. Why don't the king rest at the post station and go back after the rain stops, anyway, it will be a few days away."

Maybe it's because the two have been separated for a long time, and King Qin is a little strange to her enthusiastic look.

When several maids came over with several sets of clothes, the woman took a look and asked King Qin, "Which clothes does Your Majesty want to wear?"

She is not a person who likes to bother, if it is another woman, she should choose a suit of clothes for him at this time, only this woman is so lazy.

King Qin said: "Beauty, help me choose one."

The woman glanced at several sets of clothes and then winked at one of the maids holding the clothes. The maid was about to go forward to serve King Qin to change her coat.

"Beauty can help Gu change." Qin Wang said, he looked at her face, there are so many women in the harem, and this is the only woman he really remembers clearly.

Now she is exactly the same as in his memory. After hearing her words, the woman went forward to change clothes for King Qin.

She is not someone who can serve others, she is usually pampered, and has always been pampered.

Yun Shang is sometimes lazy with King Qin, but she is also careful, but being careful is still more comfortable than being a maid to serve others.

But at such a distance, King Qin could smell a faint smell from her body, like rain or tea, and the flowers in his ears were also very fragrant.

King Qin breathed slowly, and felt that the smell was similar to the smell he smelled when he just walked all the way. It was the smell of rainwater hitting the land.

His eyes fell on the pair of hands that were tying the belt for him. The woman's fingers were white and slender, but she usually didn't wear anything, but she often wore a pair of green bracelets on her wrists, which made her white and clean. , like jade.

After the belt was fastened, the woman helped him straighten his belt carefully, and took a step back. She looked at King Qin and said, "It's done."

She is used to looking into his eyes, the man's eyes are clear, not as deep as usual, as if he has left behind everything in the past, whether it's ambitions or plans, or endless memorials and political affairs that can't be finished, There is only one person in front of her, and it seems to be looking at another person through her.

"Would you like to drink a cup of hot tea to warm yourself up?" the woman asked. Such weather is particularly boring for an idler, but he can only do some idle things.

The man nodded, and the tea was boiled, but he didn't put it in front of people. After all, it was still spring and summer, and the charcoal fire was still a little hot around people.

The two of them were sitting by the window, it was the brightest place, and the raindrops rolled down the eaves, tick-tock.

The woman didn't say anything, the two just sat in silence, the atmosphere was not awkward, but a little too quiet.After a while, she pulled out a handkerchief from her cuff, lowered her head and picked at the embroidery with her fingertips, then threw the handkerchief on the small table to look at her pair of slender hands.

A very boring look.

"It's been too long since I left alone this time." King Qin said, his words were almost soft.

He has been on tour several times, and it takes months to say at least each time, but he has never come back and said such a thing.

No matter how far he went, he knew that the woman in front of him would never leave Xianyang City, she would be here all her life.

He could see her whenever he came back, her face remained unchanged, even if we met again after a few years, it was as if we met yesterday.

She shed tears before King Qin left, but never after he left.

Qin Wang knew that he thought that none of them would suffer from parting.

But seeing the woman bored like this, King Qin suddenly asked: "How does the beauty live when Gu is not in the palace?"

Of course someone would report to King Qin what she did, so he didn't even ask.

"Your Majesty is not in the palace, it's the same every day, and it's generally boring. The maids and eunuchs, the concubine doesn't like it very much, and you can't go out of the palace when it rains, but fortunately, you are used to it." The woman said.

Qin Wang used to only say that she is well-behaved and reassuring, and with the guards around, nothing will happen, and he will not be worried if she goes out, but now he feels a little distressed.This kind of pain is like a thin silk thread in his heart, mixed with a bit of longing, adding a bit of sadness.

She only likes him alone, so it's not interesting to be alone in this big palace, "Why don't you make two friends?"

"The concubine is very lazy. I only like the king. I don't need friends." The woman said, and she added, "It's good to have a king."

For her, no one else can replace him. In this way, King Qin is already a unique person to her. If King Qin heard about it in the past, he must be happy.

It wasn't that he was unhappy, he was filled with hearing her words, but he said in his mouth: "Beauties should make two more friends. In this weather, a few daughters embroidering flowers and throwing pots together is better than sitting like this."

The woman smiled, "Didn't your Majesty come back? Before you left, you said that this was your last tour. If you have something to do in the future, you shouldn't go too far. It doesn't matter if I'm bored for a few days."

She spoke obediently, but she was actually lazy, King Qin could tell at a glance.

"Your Majesty wants to go back on his word?" She asked with wide-eyed eyes.

"I don't regret it, but if one day she is alone by her side, what should she do? Sitting withered all day long, wouldn't she become a husband-wife stone." Qin Wang said relaxed words, his tone was also relaxed, but his heart was like a stone .

The woman got his words, looked at him blankly and puzzled, and didn't know why she suddenly said this sentence, "Why is the king not by my concubine's side?" She asked stupidly, tears rolled down her eyes like beads, After a while, he trembled all over, and wept at his desk with a handkerchief in his hand.

King Qin had never seen her cry like this before. He watched and listened for a moment, and the cries hit his heart, each sound getting heavier.

Finally, he stood up and helped her to sit up, "It's just a joke." He took the handkerchief and wiped her tears, looking at her red eyes, as if he could see tears falling from them in the next moment.

The rain outside the window was still falling, and the sound of ding ding dong dong continued under the eaves. The maid's tea had been brewed and placed between the two of them. The woman's shoulders were still shaking, and the water vapor above the teacup was lingering.

They didn't know how long they had been drinking tea. King Qin kept looking at the woman. He probably couldn't bear to see her sad, but when a woman was in pain for a man, why wouldn't the man not look at her if he loved her?

When you love someone, you must not be willing to see her suffer for you, but you just want to know how many tears she is willing to shed for yourself and how sad she is.Even if I can't bear it in my heart, I have to watch her one by one, see her cry and see her hurt.

After asking this question, King Qin suddenly felt that there might be many old things that he had ignored.

Moving forward from the memory, he and the beauty did not have too many twists and turns, or there were no twists and turns, everything went smoothly.

It's a wonderful thing that he fell in love with someone so simply. He couldn't help but put a smile on his face when he thought about it.

Thinking of this, all the trivial matters related to her became sweeter.He had never experienced such a feeling when he was young, and when this kind of emotion suddenly struck, it seemed as if he had returned to his youth.

"Where do beauties like to be alone?" The woman suddenly heard him ask, and when she raised her head, she saw a pair of smiling eyes.

King Qin was getting older, his eyes had fine lines, but his eyes were clear and gentle, with a kind of concentration that made people's hearts beat and blush.

What does Yun Shang like about him?Qin Wang thought, he knows that other women like him, he should like him, who doesn't like heroes?

"Your Majesty is good wherever you are, and my concubine loves you." She lowered her head, her voice was a little low, as if she was shy, and the ears of the hairpin flowers were a little red, like the color reflected by red flowers.

This is actually a very common sentence, but Qin Wang felt his heart move, he was smiling, and there was an intoxicating smile in his eyes.

The first to get drunk was actually himself.

The two of them sat by the window from afternoon to dusk and night without even eating, but no one mentioned this, and the maid didn't bother.

King Qin kept looking at the woman's face. He was most familiar with what Yun Chang looked like, and he couldn't take his eyes off no matter what.

The rain was dripping, as if they were the only two of them here.

The lamp was on, and the night was slowly getting dark. She took off the flowers around the woman's ear and put them on the table. She looked at King Qin and asked, "Is it time to go to bed?"

Normally, they should have walked to the bed together, or he would have carried Yunshang onto the bed.

But I heard the king of Qin say: "I have to deal with some of the notebooks I have accumulated tonight, and there should be enough time to have dinner together tomorrow morning."

This sentence "it's too late" is really strange. The woman looked at him suspiciously, but she didn't get an explanation.

When King Qin went out, the eunuch opened an umbrella for him, but the ground was still wet, and it looked silver at night.

There are many flowers and trees around Yunshang's residence, which smells fragrant, and the soil also smells fragrant.

After all, they couldn't have a meal together the next day. King Qin woke up after three days of coma during his tour. His heart was still a little soft, but there was a burst of fishy sweetness in his mouth.

The white silk handkerchief moved to her lips, stained with red blood.

Woke up too early.
