Lin Daiyu, Empress of the Great Qin Emperor

This time, she was thinking how great it would be if she had a younger brother like Gongzi Xie at that time, so she would not become helpless, and finally end up crying and dying.

"Sister Wang, what's wrong with you, why are you crying?"

Young Master Xie raised his head and saw Zhao Xiyue secretly wiping tears. He thought it was because of Young Master Yu just now, so he added: "Sister Wang, I will definitely win. I definitely don't want you to marry Young Master Yu." Xie clenched his fists, his eyes were piercing, and he looked very serious.Seeing his naive look, Zhao Xiyue laughed through tears and rubbed his little head.

"Yes, how could you lose? A proud soldier must lose."

Zhao Xiyue looked at the quail in Young Master Xie's hand and said, then we will see tomorrow.

The night was deep, with cold stars, Gong Zizheng was sitting there alone, Zhao Ji was already asleep, he didn't light the lamp, he was already used to moving in the dark night.Pushing open the door, stepping out on the moon, looking carefully, you can find that Gong Zizheng's feet are not wearing shoes, the snow in the courtyard has been swept away by him, and now he walks on the ground quietly, which is why he is used to not wearing shoes. The reason for wearing shoes is that it will not be discovered because it is silent.On weekdays, Gong Zizheng is an extremely cautious and cautious person, and does not easily express his feelings in front of others.

There was a narrow gate in the southwest corner of the pear garden, and his thin body made it easy for him to pass through.After passing by, there was a hole and some miscellaneous trees, which were densely packed, and a passage could be seen through these, and he walked into the passage.A person is waiting for him at the end of the passage, that person is the famous Lu Buwei, the current Prime Minister of Qin State.

"Prime Minister, Gong Zizheng is here."

The woman who spoke was covered with a white gauze, wearing a blue dress, named Bishui, and she was one of the four shadow guards around Lu Buwei. Personally defend Lu Buwei.

"Father Zhong!"

Gong Zizheng stepped forward and bowed respectfully, Lu Buwei, who had been standing with his back to him, suddenly turned around, nodded towards him and said: "You are here, I heard that tomorrow, Gongzi Yu of Qi State is going to marry Zhao Guo Young Master Xie is betting on two cities to fight quail, is there such a thing?"

This matter has now spread to the other six countries. Lu Buwei is very cautious in doing things, and he must be sure before he can implement the next plan.

"That's true. It will start tomorrow. I don't know who Father Zhong hopes to win?"

Gong Zizheng stood in front of Lu Buwei, with his head down all the time. In such a late night, with the cold wind blowing, his clothes were thin and barefoot, he was standing behind Lu Buwei who was wearing a fox fur coat all the time, and Standing all the time, standing straight, not afraid of the severe cold.All this was seen by Lu Buwei.

"Then who do you want to win?"

Lu Buwei didn't answer, but raised his head and turned the question over to Gong Zizheng.Gong Zizheng was silent, he was thinking deeply.

"Do you want Zhao Guo to win? I heard that Princess Xiyue of Zhao Guo is also in the bet this time. It is said that you took Yun Jinxia from me last time because of this Princess Xiyue. Princess Xiyue, better than flowers to explain words, better than jade to produce fragrance, is the most beautiful woman in Zhao country? Why do you have a crush on her, Zhenger?" Lu Buwei's face was serious, and there was no expression on his face. asked in a tone.

Gong Zizheng had a serious expression on his face, and it took a long time before he spoke: "Father Zhong, do you think Zheng'er is the kind of person who is deceived by beauty? Princess Xiyue is indeed prettier than ordinary women. Zheng'er listened to Father Zhong since he was a child. As the saying goes, a man's ambition is in all directions, not a woman. If the government is king, all the women in the world can be exclusive to me. Father Zhong, I will always remember what you said to me. It's just that This time, Zhao Guoying is even more powerful against us, Qin."

"Oh?"

Lu Buwei had a thoughtful expression, and signaled to Gong Zizheng that he could continue talking, and Gong Zizheng continued: "If Qi wins, the marriage between Qi and Zhao is imperative, and Qi will also get two cities of Zhao. Time is bound to grow, and if Qi loses, Gong Ziyu will definitely die, he is Qi Wangjian's most proud son, his other three sons will not be able to make great achievements, Father Zhong should know better than me."

After finishing the analysis, Gong Zizheng stood aside silently, waiting for Lu Buwei's words.He knew better than anyone else that Lu Buwei must have a way to control the outcome, otherwise he would not have sent someone to report late at night.

"It makes sense to say that, but I didn't expect that Zheng'er, you have really grown up. Qin's domestic situation is not good recently, so it's better for you and your mother to stay in Zhao Guo'an for the time being."

"Know!"

Gong Zizheng is only ten years old, but he has a sense of maturity that does not belong to his age. This is forced by life. He has been staying in Zhao State for these years, being bullied by others, and he was trained by Lu Buwei in private like a devil , There is no such pure emotion as the son Xie for a long time.He knows the term "the strong eat the strong" better than anyone else.

"It's good for you to know, but you don't have to wait long. You can go back to China with me in one year. Now it's getting late, you go back first. As for Princess Xiyue, if you really like it, Father Zhong will help you." Pay attention. It's just a woman, let alone the daughter of a concubine, if Father Zhong speaks, King Zhao will definitely send me to strengthen Qin." Lu Buwei said very proudly, and then he observed Gong Zizheng's face again and found that he was still calm.

"Father Zhong doesn't need it. For me, it's still too early for a girl. Zheng'er just wants to return to Qin as soon as possible, and help King Father and Father Zhong complete Qin's hegemony and unify the seven kingdoms!"

"Good, good, good!"

Afterwards, Lu Buwei asked Ye Tan to send Gong Zizheng back, and Gong Zizheng returned the same way. It was still dark, and he walked into the Liyuan.

"There is a lot of autumn grass in the south of the West Palace, and the fallen leaves are full of red. The disciples in the Liyuan have white hair and are new, and Qing'e, the prisoner in the Jiaofang, is old."

A woman was chanting softly in the night, Gong Zizheng followed the voice, saw Zhao Xiyue sitting alone in a wheelchair, she stretched out her hand to grab the red plum, but because of her disability, I couldn't stand up, couldn't reach my hands, repeated it several times, and finally gave up.Under the moonlight, Zhao Xiyue was dressed in a red robe, snow-white and red, making her look so bright and charming.It turns out that between the moonlight and the snow, there is such a third stunning color.Lu Buwei was right about one thing, that is, Zhao Xiyue is really better than flowers to express words, better than jade to produce fragrance, she can't be described as beautiful with her stunning beauty, she is really beautiful.

Gong Zizheng admitted that his heart was moved, maybe it was from the last time she gave the bedding, maybe this time today, this woman has always been something that makes his heart move.It's strange to say that the two had been together for a long time before, but they never felt this way, that is, the feeling was so strong these few days.

Zhao Xiyue also had a lot of troubles today, and she thought about tomorrow's quail fight. She was so troubled that she couldn't fall asleep, and she didn't want to disturb Chunlan and the others. plum.I also remembered that this place is also called Liyuan, and even if I remembered Bai Juyi's "Song of Everlasting Sorrow", most of the women in this palace have that kind of fate. Share your own husband.Baoyu from the previous life is the eternal pain in her heart.She will never suffer this kind of pain again in this life, just one time is enough.

"Why come out so late? It's late at night and the wind is strong!"

By coincidence, Gong Zizheng actually walked up to Zhao Xiyue, and even tried to persuade him.As soon as the words came out, he himself was stunned as to why this happened.

Zhao Xiyue was startled suddenly, she didn't expect that someone would come out so late, and this person was still Gongzizheng, especially when she knew her future identity and how cruel he was written in history Sometimes, she had to care about him.

"You came back from outside?"

Zhao Xiyue pointed to the outside, she looked at Gong Zizheng as if he came in from outside, but she was not sure.

"No, I saw you from the inside. What did you recite just now: "There are many autumn grasses in the south of the West Palace, and the fallen leaves are full of red steps.Liyuan disciple Baifa is new, Jiaofang Ajian Qing'e is old. "Never heard of it, did you write it yourself?"

Zhao Xiyue looked at Gong Zizheng in surprise, she only recited it once, but he memorized it all, and even recited it down.

"This, this, this is not, it was done by an ancient man, I just think it fits the occasion. It's late at night, and I should go back."

She still couldn't get used to being together with the son, the son and the widow, in such a late night.In their era, men and women had different seats at the age of seven, and there were many rules.Unlike the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, there was little defense between men and women.Zhao Xiyue is still a boudoir girl at heart, and she attaches great importance to chastity.

"Okay, then go back quickly."

Gong Zizheng watched Zhao Xiyue enter, and he also turned to leave.But the two turned their heads almost at the same time, and looked at each other again. Sometimes because of this extra look, a look at Wannian, it was destined to start.Zhao Xiyue hastily turned her face away.

The next day, the sky was fine, and the sun was out, which was a fine day.As soon as she got up, son Xie appeared in front of her.

"Sister Wang, sister Wang, let's go, you must go to watch the battle today, I will definitely win."

Young Master Xie had a proud face, and he went to fight with the confidence of winning.

"it is good!"

Zhao Xiyue went out with young master Xie, only to see Chunlan come in with a handful of red plum blossoms in her arms.

"How does Chunlan have so many red plum blossoms?"

"It's not the servant who picked it. The servant saw someone put it in front of the princess's room early this morning. The servant thought it was the princess and you sent someone to pick it?" Chunlan looked at Zhao Xiyue with a look of surprise.Looking at the red plum blossoms, Zhao Xiyue remembered the meeting with Gong Zizheng last night.

"Sister Wang, let's go." Young Master Xie was a little anxious, pulling Zhao Xiyue, and wanted to push her away.

"it is good!"

So the two of them went to Qingquan Palace to meet the Empress Dowager Zhao, and then followed the Empress Dowager Zhao to Doutai, where Gong Ziyu had been waiting for a long time.
