Xianyang.

An Guojun Zhao Zhu returned to the mansion, and his mood was obviously not very good.

Zhao Zhu is actually the second son of Qin Wangji, but because the eldest brother, that is, the original prince of Qin, was consumed to death by his father Qin Wangji, the position of the prince fell to Zhao Zhu.

This experience means one thing, that is, for a long time, Zhao Zhu has not actually been regarded as the future heir of the Qin monarch, including Zhao Zhu himself.

It is precisely because of this that when the position of the crown prince fell from the sky, the joy in Zhao Zhu's heart can be imagined.

As for the fact that the position of the crown prince was obtained because of the death of the eldest brother...... Compared to the throne, what is a dead big brother?

And this eldest brother died by himself, and it was not Zhao Zhu's hands and feet.

After becoming the crown prince of Qin, Zhao Zhu was originally very ambitious and wanted to do something great for him.

But someone immediately persuaded Zhao Zhu.

The person who persuaded Zhao Zhu was none other than Zhao Zhu's eldest wife, Mrs. Huayang.

This Mrs. Huayang is from the Chu State, and she is still related to Qin Wangji's own mother, Empress Dowager Xuan.

Empress Dowager Xuan's eighth son can be said to be a very legendary woman, her experience is rich and bloody, and there is no problem at all in making dozens of episodes into a TV series.

As the younger generation of Empress Dowager Xuan, Mrs. Huayang is actually a powerful character.

In Mrs. Huayang's opinion, as the crown prince, the most important thing Zhao Zhu needs to do is actually to do nothing.

Yes, do nothing, just act like a sculpture.

After all, when Zhao Zhu became the crown prince, Qin Wangji was already very old.

Old, it means that the end is coming.

A king who is about to reach his limit is very sensitive to power.

If Zhao Zhu jumps back and forth at this time, will it make Qin Wangji feel that Zhao Zhu's son can't wait to seize power?

As a certain king once said to his son in a certain TV series: "My country will be yours in the future." But if I don't give it, you can't rob it. ”

No emperor would tolerate anyone wanting to share this supreme royal power with him while he was still alive.

After some thought, Zhao Zhu very decisively adopted Mrs. Huayang's opinion.

Since then, although Qin Wangji often involved Zhao Zhu in military affairs, Zhao Zhu has rarely expressed his opinions, and only said a few words when he was directly named by Qin Wangji.

Until the Battle of Changping broke out, Zhao Zhu began to be a little unbearable.

Before the Battle of Changping, although there were occasional setbacks such as the Battle of Yanhe, the Qin State was generally on the rise.

But the Battle of Changping changed all that.

The defeat at the Battle of Changping made Zhao Zhu feel the crisis, and the future king of Qin began to consciously increase his participation in Qin's national affairs.

The subsequent defeat in the Battle of Chu, or the Battle of Hedong, made Zhao Zhu feel even more on pins and needles.

After all, after witnessing the once glorious Great Qin Empire, who would want to inherit a declining Great Qin Empire?

There was a knock on the door to the study.

"Come in!"

A noblewoman of the Qin Kingdom walked in.

Although this noble lady is nearly forty years old, she does not seem to be affected by the years, she walks step by step and shakes very gracefully, and she is a little dignified in her maturity, and she is now Mrs. Huayang, the wife of An Guojun.

Mrs. Huayang walked to Zhao Zhu's side and said softly: "The monarch has been wronged in the court?" ”

Zhao Zhu shook his head and sighed: "Alas, I asked my father to lead the army into battle, but my father did not allow it. ”

Mrs. Huayang was obviously taken aback, and said, "Why did you mean this?" It must be known that the war is dangerous, and the king is a noble body, how can he go to danger with his body? ”

Zhao Zhu frowned slightly, and his expression was a little dissatisfied, obviously Mrs. Huayang's words were not pleasing.

Seeing Zhao Zhu's performance, Mrs. Huayang couldn't help but put her tone softer, and reached out to help Zhao Zhu massage his shoulder, and said at the same time: "Why should you be in a hurry? When the monarch inherits the throne, the affairs of the Qin State are not all decided by the monarch's words? ”

Zhao Zhu snorted sullenly and said, "I'm afraid I don't have that chance." ”

To be honest, now Zhao Zhu is also a little muttering in his heart.

This father of his own, but he has lived to be more than sixty years old and has not died in the sky.

You must know that in terms of the life expectancy level of the Warring States Period, these sixty-odd years are equivalent to eighty or ninety years old in later generations.

Now Zhao Zhu is not young, and he is also moving towards the age of fifty, if he also follows in the footsteps of his eldest brother and dies before Qin Wangji dies, wouldn't this be a cup with a capital letter.

Besides, even if Qin Wangji died two years later, Zhao Zhu would be almost fifty years old at that time...... How many years can this king be?

With all these factors superimposed, Zhao Zhu is really anxious.

Mrs. Huayang looked at Zhao Zhu's anxious look, and she didn't know what to say for a while.

In fact, Mrs. Huayang had already told Zhao Zhu what she should say, and she also believed that Zhao Zhu understood the stakes.

But even so, Zhao Zhu still seemed so eager, so it could only be said that one thing could be said - Zhao Zhu's patience was almost at the limit.

But the problem is that Mrs. Huayang knows very well that no matter how anxious Zhao Zhu is, he must wait, and only by continuing to wait can there be hope.

What to do?

How can I make my husband calm down and continue to wait patiently?

Just as Mrs. Huayang was pondering, Zhao Zhu suddenly covered his mouth with his hand and coughed violently.

Mrs. Huayang was slightly startled in her heart, and hurriedly helped Zhao Zhu pat her back, wanting to make Zhao Zhu smooth.

Zhao Zhu's cough was very violent, and it took a while before it slowly calmed down.

But even so, the expression on Zhao Zhu's face was still not very good, and he looked a little like he was sick.

Mrs. Huayang looked at Zhao Zhu and said with some worry: "Your Excellency is fine, do you want to summon the palace doctor to take a look?" ”

"No need." Zhao Zhu waved his hand and said with some disapproval: "I may have suffered from some wind and cold recently, just take some medicine, and it won't get in the way." ”

After a pause, Zhao Zhu suddenly sighed and said, "It's a pity that Yangquanjun is not here, otherwise I can ask him to help me refer to it and see if I can have any ideas." ”

At today's court meeting, Yangquanjun has been sent to Bashu by Qin Wangji to supervise the transportation of grain and grass, and I am afraid that he will not be able to return to Xianyang before the end of this war.

Mrs. Huayang's delicate face turned wonderfully, and after a while, she suddenly said: "Your Majesty, the concubine once heard Yangquanjun mention that the guest Qing Lu Buwei is quite talented, and she has offered several strategies, which is quite helpful to Yangquanjun. And his person is the minister of Zichu, why don't you summon him to meet? ”

"Lü Buwei?"

Zhao Zhu was silent for a moment, and sighed: "That's it, since there is no one on the left and right who can help me, then go and summon this Lu Buwei to come and see me!" ”

Lü Buwei was soon summoned.

"Chen Lu Buwei has seen the king, Mrs. Jun!"

Zhao Zhu waved his hand and reluctantly smiled at Lu Buwei: "Doctor, please take a seat." ”

Lu Buwei hurriedly sat down very obediently.

Zhao Zhu glanced at Lu Buwei and said, "I'm worried, I don't know if the doctor can solve it?" ”
