Mrs. Qin Xiangguo

Chapter 42 42

042

Lu Buwei's mansion in Xianyang is more open and refined than Handan.

In comparison, Handan's mansion looked a bit shabby, which made it clear that he didn't plan to live for a long time.

He arranged Zhao Weizhen's house near his own house, not too far away, but it was separated after all.

In name, Zhao Weizhen and Lu Buwei are husband and wife, so it is understandable for him to want to sleep in the same bed with him.But at the same time, Zhao Weizhen is a modern person, even if he is a nominal couple, he is not interested in sleeping with the man he met for the second time.

It's really not good for my own husband, no matter how handsome he is.

Among other things, there were no suitable contraceptive measures in the pre-Qin period, and sleeping casually would really cause children to come out!

Fertility is a major event, even if you want to give birth, Zhao Weizhen doesn't want to give birth unprepared in this era of extremely backward sanitation and medical conditions.

This point, Lu Buwei actually saw it.

Thinking back carefully, it was probably because she avoided his hand, right?Among other things, Zhao Weizhen admired Lu Buwei's ability to observe words and emotions from the bottom of his heart.

A few days later, one early morning.

Zhao Weizhen got up early, changed into Mrs. Qin's clothes, and changed into Mrs. Qin's hair bun. She went out in style, and as soon as she stepped out of the threshold of the mansion, she saw that Lu Buwei had prepared the chariot and horses early, and was already waiting patiently.

It was so grand because the King Qin's summoning was long overdue.

They are going to Qin Palace.

According to historical records, after Shang Yang's political reform, Qin Xiaogong moved the capital from Liyang to Xianyang and began to build Xianyang Palace.By the time of King Qin Zhaoxiang, who is now King Ji of Qin, the construction of Xianyang Palace had already been completed.

Before crossing, Zhao Weizhen went to the Xianyang Palace Ruins Museum. Unfortunately, in Shaanxi, where the ground is full of grave mounds, he really didn't leave much impression.

Now that he had personally experienced the Qin Palace, he was still slightly shocked.

No matter how tall the Qin Palace is, it cannot compare with skyscrapers; no matter how magnificent the Qin Palace is, it cannot compare with the Ming and Qing Forbidden City of later generations;

But the carriage slowly passed the palace gate, and the long passage was surrounded by high walls. Except for the yellow wall, there was a straight road in the field of vision. For a moment, only the rolling of the shaft and the rattling of horseshoes echoed on the narrow but empty road.

All of a sudden, the majesty and oppression brought by the end of slave society and the early feudal society came over us.

Zhao Weizhen pursed the corners of his mouth, and clasped the hands under the long sleeves indiscriminately.

"It's okay."

Lu Buwei was keenly aware of Zhao Weizhen's emotional changes: "Weizhen, don't forget why you came here."

Why come?

Because she was meritorious for presenting the drawings, and because she was meritorious for protecting Mr. Qin.

As far as Qin is concerned, Zhao Weizhen is a hero, and the King of Qin ordered her to enter the palace for rewards, even thanks.

With such a thought in his heart, Zhao Weizhen immediately felt better.

as well as……

She stared at Lu Buwei silently.

He wasn't polite, he just called out "Wei Zhen" without any shame.

You must know that in the pre-Qin period, her name was Meng Kai, and Weizhen was her boudoir name.When Lu Buwei yelled, the sense of oppression brought by the high walls of the Qin Palace was instantly swept away.

On weekdays, the court meeting of the officials is in the main hall.But the carriage drove all the way to the side hall of the Qin Palace.

Under the leadership of the eunuch, the two entered the side hall.

As soon as he crossed the threshold, before Zhao Weizhen could stand still, he heard a familiar child's voice.

"Madame Weizhen!"

Xiao Yingzheng ran over impatiently.

Behind him, a non-stern reminder sounded: "Zheng'er! Don't be rude."

Zhao Weizhen immediately put on a bright smile: "It's okay, Mr. Chu."

She took Xiao Yingzheng and stepped forward generously.

It seems that Ying Zichu and Ying Zheng were waiting here early in the morning.He saluted Zhao Weizhen politely: "Mrs. Meng Wei."

Zhao Weizhen returned the salute: "I have met Mr. Chu."

Ying Zi Chu Wan'er: "The last time we met, Zi Chu was eager to reunite with his family, so he neglected Madam, please don't take it to heart."

It's quite polite.

"Young master, don't worry."

He treated each other with courtesy, and Zhao Weizhen was equally polite: "Young master misses his family, it's too late for my concubine to be happy. In Xianyang in the future, I ask Mr. Chu to take care of me."

Ying Zichu waved his hands again and again: "Where is it, it is Zichu who should ask Mrs. Meng Wei for advice. From now on, Zheng'er's studies are expected to be taken care of by Mrs. Meng Kai!"

Zhao Weizhen couldn't help looking at Xiao Yingzheng.

She lowered her head, just in time to meet Ying Zheng's expectant eyes.

This sentence means that even in Xianyang, Ying Zichu does not intend to change teachers for Ying Zheng.

He could have done that.

In Xianyang, there are many people who are more famous and talented than Zhao Weizhen.If Ying Zichu really found a suitable husband for Ying Zheng, Zhao Weizhen would not say anything.

But he didn't.

Such persistence, on the one hand, recognizes Zhao Weizhen's level, and on the other hand, it also shows to Zhao Weizhen that they are on the same boat.

The husband is his husband, and the son is handed over to her, which means that the couple and Ying Zichu are completely tied to death.

This……

He is also straightforward.

Zhao Weizhen quickly looked at Ying Zichu.

It's no wonder that Lu Buwei and Ying Zichu are congenial. Standing together, the two look exactly like elegant scholars.Even Ying Zichu looked softer: his facial features were more feminine and refined, and his expression was more gentle and harmless. He looked amiable, as if anyone could handle him.

It is said that the Qin people are as cruel as tigers and wolves, but by this standard, Zi Chu is not at all like a "Qin people".

But Zhao Weizhen did not let go of the clarity and alertness in his eyes.

Although later generations of film and television novels always portray Ying Zichu as cowardly or incompetent, Zhao Weizhen believes that Lu Buwei will not invest in a fool.

Isn't that a loss-making business?

"Since Mr. Chu trusts me, I will do my best." After Zhao Weizhen promised, he looked at Ying Zheng again: "Mr. Zheng can't be lazy now that he is back with Father."

Ying Zheng nodded seriously: "I will, father please supervise."

Ying Zichu smiled and said, "Okay."

It is estimated that he waited in the side hall early in the morning, just to tell Zhao Weizhen about it as soon as possible.

As for her purpose of coming to Qin Palace...

Zhao Weizhen glanced outside the side hall, and then said: "I have a question, I don't know if it's appropriate or not."

Ying Zichu: "Mrs. Meng Wei, please tell me."

Zhao Weizhen: "Is the Queen here today?"

Ying Zichu: "Not only the queen is here, but my father An Guojun and Mrs. Huayang are also here."

Zhao Weizhen understood.

She hooked the corner of her mouth and said nothing.

Having said that, Zhao Weizhen already understood what kind of scene was waiting for her.

"Mrs. Weizhen."

Xiao Yingzheng tugged at the corner of her clothes, and said solemnly, "Don't be nervous, my great-grandfather is very nice."

Zhao Weizhen: "..."

I wasn't nervous at all, but after you reminded me, I became a little nervous again.

Xiao Yingzheng's great-grandfather, that is King Qin Zhaoxiang!

Help.

When he was in Handan, Zhao Weizhen never met King Zhao.And now she is going to meet King Qin!

He was also the great demon king who fought in the last fifty years of the Warring States period and made the six kingdoms frightened, crying for his father and mother!

Thinking of this, Zhao Weizhen couldn't stop his head from becoming dazed.

Seeing a Douding version of Qin Shihuang made Zhao Weizhen excited, let alone the real King Qin.

No, calm down!

Zhao Weizhen just wanted to ask Xiao Yingzheng what he said when he met Qin Wangji, but before he could say anything, an official walked in.

"Mr. Buwei, Mrs. Meng Wei."

The eunuch respectfully said: "Please, Your Majesty."

Zhao Weizhen took a deep breath.

See you now, she taught the future Qin Shihuang, and she calls her Mrs. Weizhen one by one, what is Qin Wangji afraid of!

She repeated this sentence several times in her heart, a surge of pride arose in her heart, and she forcibly suppressed the tension for the time being.

Follow the eunuch into the palace and cross the threshold.

Unless we meet in Zhangtai Palace, this main hall is neither big nor small, maybe it is the study of King Qin.There were no officials watching, no servants waiting, just as Ying Zichu said, there were only four people in the room, the King Qin, the queen, the prince, and his wife.

In the pre-Qin period, there was no need to kneel down to salute.

Zhao Weizhen followed Lu Buwei, and made a deep hand-pushing salute: "I have seen the king, queen, prince and wife."

"Get up quickly."

It was not King Qin's voice that sounded overhead.

A kind and joyful female voice came: "Let me take a good look at what Mrs. Meng Kai, who protected my great-grandson and grandson back to Qin safely, looks like."

Zhao Weizhen raised his head upon hearing this.

The first thing she saw was King Qin sitting directly above.

Qin Wangji didn't wear court clothes, he was dressed in black dark clothes which were solemn but not solemn.The woman sitting next to him was dressed in complicated and luxurious clothes. Although she bowed and smiled kindly, her face under the white hair was quite majestic.

The person who spoke eagerly just now was the queen of Qin Wangji, Queen Ye Yang.

"The queen was joking." Zhao Weizhen said playfully, "What else can a concubine look like? It's just like an ordinary rough woman, with two eyes and one mouth."

"Ouch."

Ye Yanghou laughed when she heard the words: "This little lady is so eloquent, no wonder we are not afraid of you, Mr. Wei."

He is afraid of her?

Forget it, Zhao Weizhen muttered in his heart, if he was really afraid, why did he just leave back then!

But the queen has said so, of course Zhao Weizhen is not easy to refute.

She glanced at Lu Buwei, still with a brisk tone: "That's natural, my wife dare not refute what my concubine says."

When the words fell to the ground, several great gods above their heads laughed.

Even King Qin was no exception.

Seeing this, Zhao Weizhen relaxed a little: This proves that the famous villain BOSS is not a serious and serious person by nature.

After the queen exchanged greetings, Qin Wangji said calmly: "The two blueprints sent by Mrs. Meng Kai have greatly enhanced the strength of our country of Qin. How can it be compared with ordinary rough women? It is also my country of Qin who is lucky to have Meng Kai." Madam is so talented to help, not to mention a rough woman, but a fairy sent from heaven, the widow will believe it."

Zhao Weizhen raised his eyebrows secretly, but he said modestly: "The king praises it absurdly, and my concubine is terrified."

The King of Qin waved his hand: "Mrs. Meng Wei, don't be modest. There are countless capable people and sages in Xianyang Palace who come and go, and there are countless people who come to see me. I know who is really talented and who is a vain name. Now I am grateful. I have a question."

Zhao Weizhen: "Please, Your Majesty."

King Qin: "If a sage helps Qin, Qin should treat him generously. It's just that I don't know what Mrs. Meng Wei wants."

OK... OK.

Now Zhao Weizhen more or less understands the reason for the temper between little Yingzheng and big devil Yingji.

He is clearly a king, but his personality is not serious—otherwise, Empress Ye Yang would not have joked with Zhao Weizhen in such a casual tone.

Moreover, he was quite straightforward, knowing that Zhao Weizhen had made great contributions to Qin, he simply didn't treat her as an outsider and asked her directly.

If the monarch wants to reward someone, does he need to ask the person what he wants?Qin Wang asked the exit, not expecting Zhao Weizhen to ask for the desired item.

He was asking: You have given Qin so many good things, why do you have no desire or desire for Qin?

For the time being, Lu Buwei is for fame and fortune, for the sake of supporting the monarch.But Zhao Weizhen sent the blueprints of Qin State twice, and escorted Gong Zizheng to Xianyang, but people couldn't figure out her purpose.

It's not enough to just help your husband do things.

The smile on Zhao Weizhen's face was more or less real.

The king of Qin even asked questions carelessly, if she answered dishonestly, it would be disrespectful to him.

So Zhao Weizhen raised his head neatly.

"On the contrary, I have a question about this, and begged the king to clarify." Zhao Weizhen said.

"Oh? Mrs. Meng Wei, please tell me." Qin Wang suddenly became interested.

"If it were a man, he would send Qin the harness and the blueprints for making Qu Yuanli, and send Mr. Zheng back to Qin safely." Zhao Weizhen said frankly, "Will the King bring his family members to meet him in this study?"

The words fell, and the room was silent.

Even Empress Ye Yang didn't dare to make trouble easily.

Zhao Weizhen was not afraid: "Since there is no answer, the concubine has nothing to ask from Qin."
