Emperor Qin

When King Qin arrived in Xianyang, all the rumors were self-defeating.

The elders in Guanzhong kowtowed on the road, and all civil and military officials came out of the city to welcome them.

Fusu and her mother were at the front of the crowd, both feeling apprehensive and uneasy.

And the King Qin's chariot in the distance gradually became clear. King Qin's face was slightly pale, but he was sitting among the six drivers, with his back erect, majestic and domineering, without the slightest sign of serious injury.

Seeing this scene, Chu Ji trembled slightly, while Fu Su's heart became more and more heavy.

The next thing, of course, is that King Qin will come to court, and his cronies who follow and serve him will take over the management of the palace again, and those who should be killed and those who should be arrested will be cleaned up one by one.

Then, he returned to Xianyang Palace generously, and his confidants came immediately. The Queen Mother's condition became more and more serious, and she wanted to see the King for the last time.

King Qin went to see the seriously ill Empress Dowager Huayang.

He dismissed the servant girls and eunuchs, only Chu Ji took Fusu's hand and went to the Empress Dowager's Palace to serve respectfully.

Looking at the dying old woman, the king of Qin pursed his lips, and said calmly: "The queen mother can go away with peace of mind. For the face of the former king, the widow will bury her as the six sons of heaven, and be respected by the people of Qin."

"After death is honor, what will be done to the dead?" Although the Queen Mother Huayang is not in good spirits, her mind is still clear. She turned her head to look at this young man who has grown from a child to an emperor, and said with nostalgia, " Whether you are old or Zhao Ji, no matter what you do, Zheng'er is always angry but not hurt, resentful but not sad, so cold-hearted, how can people love you?"

His younger brother's betrayal, his mother's betrayal, and now his grandmother's wife's betrayal, can't make him change a bit.

Before the king of Qin could speak, Yan Jiang said coldly: "Those who destroy the six kingdoms are also the ones who betray the people. They all harm the country because of self-interest. The reason has already been raised. The empress dowager's excuse is a bit ridiculous."

What annoys me the most is that the victim is guilty. It is obvious that the one who flirts first is cheap. The king of Qin can't get his own misfortune because he didn't expect you SBs to be reliable, okay?

Seeing Yan Zi's opening, the Empress Dowager first glanced at King Qin, then took a deep look at him, with a little bit of a relieved smile on her face: "Your Majesty has put his heart into it, and even Yan Zi, who is as arbitrary as Yan Zi, can be taken down. Unexpectedly."

King Qin looked calm, and said indifferently: "The Queen Mother is a good lesson, but you still take care of your health, so that I can see how the widows will win the six kingdoms."

The Empress Dowager Huayang's gaze finally changed, but she finally avoided King Qin's gaze, stared at the beams and pillars, and sighed softly: "It still doesn't work."

The collapse of the old country, how can ordinary people endure suffering?

She slowly closed her eyes, and hummed a song of Chu gently, until the end of the song, there was no more sound.

It stands to reason that the King of Qin should come forward to pay his respects to bid farewell to his grandmother.

But King Qin just stood still for a few breaths, then turned around and wanted to leave.

Chu Ji trembled for a few breaths, but finally couldn't hold back, and pressed towards the candlestick next to her.

Fusu had been watching his mother from the moment he entered the door. Seeing this, he suddenly grabbed his mother's arm and refused to let her press it down. Chu Ji was stunned and turned to look at Fusu.

Fusu shook his head vigorously, indicating that he couldn't do it.

Chu Ji was heartbroken. Seeing that King Qin was about to leave the room, she could hardly restrain herself. She instinctively wanted to press it again, but she couldn't do it under Fusu's begging eyes. At this moment, King Qin's indifferent gaze Looking at it, Chu Ji almost collapsed to the ground.

"Your Majesty..." the delicate and flowery woman begged, "Most of the world, you already have it, you have it..."

She has her homeland, her parents and brothers, even if she marries to Qin, she cannot give up easily.

King Qin's eyes were pale, he just walked slowly, and in his mocking eyes, he turned Ji Tian slightly.

The next second, there was a sudden vibration of springs around, but it was just a sound.

Chu Ji's expression turned pale in an instant: "How, how?"

These are crossbow machines made by Chu Mo himself. There are four in total and they are hidden in the clothes box of the dressing table.

"When Chu Mo entered Qin Dynasty, Wei Liao had already noticed it," Yan Jiang said indifferently, "Furthermore, the more delicate the mechanism is, the easier it is to destroy."

Xiang Liyun has long been transformed into Suicong ordered by the imperial physician to observe and revise several times. As for His Majesty, he even listened to their big plan in Fangliang—what is imitating the death of the king of Chu and Wu Qi being killed by an arrow? , to follow the attendant to bring down the king of Qin's wariness, the Queen Mother Yun to move his mind, and then Chu Ji to activate the crossbow to take the king's order.

The Empress Dowager Huayang even said that the matter of assassinating the king, in a strictly guarded place like Xianyang, the simpler the plan, the better, and the fewer people who know about it, the better. The more you look forward and backward, if there is no chance to achieve it.

When His Majesty came back, he complained to Yan Jiang: If it wasn't for the fact that this grandmother was so focused on dealing with herself, he would really like to praise the heroine.

"Come here," King Qin said calmly, "you are forbidden to enter the sleeping hall, and you will be dealt with by the lord."

"Father..." Fusu begged, "Mother was confused for a while, please forgive her."

"No, Your Majesty, Fusu doesn't know about this matter..." Chu Ji immediately grabbed his sleeve and begged, "Before the Queen Mother left, she took two or three sons away, I know where they are."

For a moment, the mother and the son were scrambling to put the blame on themselves, but it seemed that King Qin on one side was as cold and heartless as a villain.

"The widow also knows!"

Qin Wang only felt bored in his heart, and he didn't want to stay for a moment, so he flung his sleeves and backed away.

He strode out of the court without even getting on the chariot.

The waiters who followed him were coldly driven away by him, and only Yan Jiang followed him, silently accompanying him without a word of comfort.

It wasn't until two big tigers enjoying the shade under the tree saw him passing by and ran over happily that Yan Jiang took King Qin to sit under the big tree on one side, and comforted the tiger while patting the tiger: "There is no way for this, human nature I can't afford to try."

Isn't it just looking for trouble? When the Empress Dowager Huayang exposes the final plot to assassinate Qin, she will definitely be able to rest in peace, but the King of Qin wants to test whether his wife will betray him, so he must tear open the wound.

Qin Wangzheng said angrily: "You won't."

Yan Jiang hooked his fingers, skillfully calming His Majesty's anger.

Qin Wang was silent for a few breaths, his voice seemed to have been frozen: "Such a crime, I can't accuse her of the crime."

Yan Jiang also felt a little distressed. He abandoned Huayi and hugged the king, rubbing his neck gently to show comfort.

No way, verbal comfort is too pale.

Not to mention the relatively clean assassination of the Empress Dowager Huayang, after the murder of his biological mother Zhao Ji and Lao Ai was put down, everyone in the world persuaded him to forgive his mother by hanging on the wall and remonstrating!

He has always given others opportunities, but what is the return?

The mother wants to kill the son, the younger brother wants to kill the brother, if you release the old nobles in South Korea, there will be a Xinzheng rebellion, but Jingke will assassinate Qin after saving the country of Yan, and you will assassinate Qin when you release Lord Changping. If you want to kill your grandson, your wife wants to kill your husband!

Although King Qin didn't think he was miserable, but to be honest, most people would have been blackened long ago when they encountered what happened to him, but Yan Jiang, who was also iron like him, was very distressed.

But having said that, it is impossible for the Six Nations not to resist.

You put people on the ground and raped them, and you didn't let them yell twice, so there's no reason for that, isn't it?

After a while, King Qin pressed his hand silently, and said in a low voice, "That's not the case."

"Hmm." Yan Jiang didn't know what he was talking about, but he could usually be perfunctory with the question of not knowing.

Qin Wangzheng's voice did not argue about happiness or anger, but he said calmly: "It's not because you are cold-hearted, but you are a king. If you don't show your happiness and anger, you are king."

"I know the king." Yan Jiang whispered.

It’s not that it’s not sad, it’s not that it doesn’t hurt, it’s just that this person, he was born like this, he would rather lick his wounds alone than show a trace of weakness, he will always be domineering and strong, and anyone who can’t defeat him will only become his pavement Dry bones.

But he can't, and won't, be grateful to those defeated, let alone be grateful for the hardships and tribulations. The only thing he believes in is himself.

"A Jiang, are you going to betray the widow?" King Qin asked suddenly, holding his hand.

"It's not like what you would ask at all." Yan Jiang couldn't be sure, and said casually, "It depends on your performance."

King Qin was silent for a long time, then he got up suddenly.

Yan Jiang didn't check anything, was dragged up, let go hastily, but was thumped on the tiger's back, biting him for several breaths, before giving up.

When he stood up, the gloominess of King Qin seemed to have disappeared, and between his eyebrows and eyes, the whole person was more sullen and domineering than before.

Then he said domineeringly: "Yan Jiang is also a big evil."

It's not my business?

Yan Jiang was taken aback, and asked suspiciously, "What does this have to do with me?"

Qin Wangzheng didn't give an explanation, and changed the topic: "A Jiang, how do you say how to deal with Chu Ji and others?"

"What are you asking me for?" Yan Jiang was stunned, and then said angrily, "That's your harem."

"That's right," Qin Wangzheng said indifferently, "there are all Empress Dowager Huayang's people. If there is such a chaos, she will definitely not be able to stay."

This is true. Since ancient times, the usurpers have not been able to survive, but the sons are still young. If the mother keeps the sons, if one is not good, the father and son will become enemies. After all, Fusu is still young. Seeing that his parents are safe, he must hope Leave the mother alive.

Yan Jiang kept his lips shut, this matter has nothing to do with him, only trouble.

But it didn't bother them for long.

……

In the evening, news came that Chu Ji committed suicide.

She used her last courage to imitate Mrs. Moji, piercing her throat with a hairpin, admonishing the emperor, and leaving a letter saying that her family and country could not have both, so she did the Moji thing. King Wanwang saw that she had taken care of the harem for many years Do not implicate others.

Mrs. Moji is the queen of the Dai Kingdom and the princess of the Zhao Kingdom. After Zhao destroyed the Dai Kingdom, she wept to the sky: It is not righteous to slow down your husband by your younger brother; it is not benevolent to hate your younger brother by your husband.After committing suicide.

The righteousness of the country and the benevolence of the family are incompatible. The princess committed suicide and died.

This can be regarded as another kind of dead advice.

King Qin went to see her body, was silent for a long time, and ordered Chu Ji to be buried quietly.

Later, the attendants were recruited, and the historian was ordered not to record the affairs of the rear palace. In addition, all the books related to Lord Changping and Lord Changwen were deleted, and this matter was not allowed to be mentioned again.

Fusu raised his head in astonishment, his red eyes from crying almost stubbornly shouted: "Father! Don't want it!"

Father, this is to erase all traces of mother.

King Qin glanced at him coldly and left mercilessly.

"Father!" Fusu was about to grab him, but was hugged by Yan Jiang.

"Fusu, he is protecting you!" Yan Jiang whispered, "If you don't get rid of this matter, you and your younger brothers will be criticized by everyone."

Paper can't hold fire, Fusu is still too young, if he doesn't make such a gesture, he will always bear the stigma of the son of rebellion.

"Sir, I'm not afraid of those!" Fusu hissed, "I only want my mother to have her identity."

No matter how wrong my mother was, she committed suicide!

How could he allow his mother to be buried as a nobody, with no one offering sacrifices after her death, and just disappear in people's memory like this.

"Father! You are too cruel!" Fusu shouted at his back.

King Qin's back gradually moved away, without stopping for a moment.
