Chapter 63: Domineering Zhao Ji
Yun Yue staggered and slept in the carriage, taking a short nap and going to the Qin realm. The carriage that rolled down the hill was basically useless, and Yun Yue's original car was particularly serious. A dozen wagons were tinkered with, and in the end three could be put together. This is already the limit of craftsmen!
After every big battle, Yun Yue's heart was pumping. In the two-day melee, the Qin army suffered 183 casualties. Most of them were killed during the sneak attack on the first night, and the corpses on the hillside. The Yun family is not interested in counting at all, even if they kill 10,000 people, their own two hundred brothers will not survive.
The doctor of the envoy of Chu is named Jin Shang, who is the Guanglu doctor of Chu State, and he is a standard high authority. Seeing Changpingjun is like seeing relatives, it is estimated that the relationship is not shallow, and it should be a courtier who belongs to the faction close to Changpingjun.
Yun Yue was not interested in dealing with these people, and it was the right way to send the little princess of Chu back to Xianyang as soon as possible. The rest is not in my own hands, and this time I will lose a lot. Only one young man was killed, and more than 100 brothers were folded. It's not worth it!
However, an even more severe blow came when Yun Yue returned to the Qin Realm. Du Bi, who came to greet him, told Yun Yue in a grief-stricken tone.
"The king is gone!"
…… Bai tossed, and the whole team was stunned on the spot.
The Chengming Hall was filled with cigarette smoke, and everyone was grieving, true or false. King Zhuang Xiang was lying in the palace in full costume, his cheeks a little thin. His face was a little dark, but he walked peacefully. Lie there as if you were asleep.
Jing Er's eyes were glazed, and his hair was scattered. Whoever keeps a sleepless vigil for three days will do the same. According to the Great Qin ritual system, the funeral will take three months. In the midst of the great mourning. It is forbidden to marry all weddings and entertainment. All Great Qin subjects. We all want to extend our most sincere condolences to the great King of Qin.
The envoys of the six countries gathered in Xianyang. Han Wangan came to Daqin in person. Facing the King of Qin, he expressed his grief! Of course, it's not just Han Wangan. The Yan State sent the crown prince Ji Dan to come to Daqin to offer condolences to show the importance that the Yan State attached to this matter.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, I heard that Yunhou is mixing well in the Qin Kingdom. In the north there was a hundred li fiefdom, and it is said that the Huns also gave him three points. It's just that the king didn't follow the general's advice in the first place. Otherwise, if such people stay in Yan Kingdom, why don't I worry about Yan not prospering. Ju Wu followed Prince Dan to Xianyang.
Just like Xianyang, he inquired about various information such as the customs and customs of the Qin State, and the word Yunyue was the one he gained the most. Although there are also details to deliver news on weekdays. But after all, there is no truth to inquire about yourself.
"In the turbulent situation of Handan back then, Yunhou could leave safely. Such a person will sooner or later not be a thing in the pool. It's a pity that my Yan country is weak and the people are poor. People like Yunhou categorically don't look down on our Dayan. "In two years, Prince Dan has matured a lot. A prisoner of war career has made this ignorant teenager mature a lot.
"I heard that the crown prince and the new king of Qin have a lot of intersection in the proton mansion of Zhao State, whether the prince wants to rely on the past friendship. Prompted my Dayan and Qin to jointly attack Zhao State, with the hatred of Xue. ”
The biggest enemy of Yan is Zhao State, since the failure of the invasion of Qi State. Yan Guo set his sights on Zhao Guo. Especially after the Battle of Changping. Zhao is weak, and he is not an opponent of Qin. Yan took advantage of this opportunity to invade a lot of land in Zhao. However, Zhao Guo seems to be still alive with Martial Spirit King Yu Wei. The Zhao army, which lacked major generals, still defeated the Yan army continuously.
The most recent one was in the year before last, when Yun Yue, who was still the commander of Zhao Jun. The capture of Prince Dan in the First World War directly led to the complete defeat of the Yan army. In the past two years, Yan Guo has been cultivating and recuperating and preparing his armor, and he has been trying to wash away the shame of defeat all the time.
"Two years have passed, and I don't know if Gongzizheng still remembers me. I hope that it can be said that the King of Qin will be moved, but during the period of mourning. It is impossible for the Qin State to use swords, and the period of great mourning has passed.
Besides, the new monarch of Qin succeeded to the throne. Stabilizing the domestic political situation is the top priority, and it is extremely difficult to move King Qin based on the friendship of the past. ”
"The prince can know that it is profitable, and he is moved by affection. Zhao is the number one stumbling block to Qin's conquest of the world, and the Battle of Changping has greatly damaged the vitality of Zhao State. Now that some years have passed, Zhao's national strength seems to have recovered. Qin Guo didn't want to just watch a sick tiger recover like this, as long as the prince was stuck in this one. It will definitely be able to say that the new monarch of the Qin State will be moved. Ju Wu already had a draft in his heart, and it was even more important to talk about it at this time.
"General Ju's plan is feasible, but King Qin is young. He doesn't seem to be able to call the shots in this government! ”
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should not panic, the minister heard that King Qin left an edict before his death. It is said that it is Lü Buwei's regent, and now everything in the Qin court is decided by Lü Xiang. Why don't the prince go to visit Lu Xiang, as long as Lu Xiang agrees. This matter is confirmed! "Ju Wu has already inquired about the news of the Qin court these days, and the king of Qin has died, and Lü Buwei has been regent. This is the first time in Daqin that only one person has been entrusted with such a heavy responsibility.
However, according to the spy report of the detailed work, it seems that the Empress Dowager Huayang still has a huge influence on the Qin Court. You must know that the Mi family has been operating in the Qin State for less than a hundred years. Decades ago, there was an outstanding figure like the Empress Dowager Xuan, and we want to achieve our goal. It seems that you have to get the approval of the Empress Dowager Xuan! "Prince Dan grew up in the palace since he was a child, so he naturally knows a lot about the affairs of the palace.
Especially the influence of the harem on the previous dynasty, Prince Dan is even more clear in his heart. A Lü Buwei has only been in the Qin State for a few years. How can it be compared with the century-old foundation of the Mi family, I am afraid that this Xiangbang Lord will also have to look up to the Empress Dowager Huayang at this time.
"The prince can't, recently his subordinates learned. Although Lü Buwei used to borrow the Empress Dowager Huayang to ascend to the throne, since then Lü Buwei has been recruiting henchmen to cultivate his own power, which seems to have angered the Empress Dowager Huayang. Now both sides are wrestling secretly, if we bet on both ends, then it is likely that both ends will be offended. Once this kind of evil result is caused, then the matter ......" Ju Wu saw that Prince Dan's expression was uncertain, so he didn't say any more.
"There's no rush on this matter, let's see. Pay close attention to the movements of the envoys of the six countries, and let the details focus on inquiring about the internal situation of the Qin court. It is necessary to be detailed and accurate, and find out who is the person who Daqin really has the final say now. ”
"No!"
The Empress Dowager Huayang stayed alone in the Gaoquan Palace at this time, and Qin Qing went to the Chu State. So far, she doesn't even have a person to discuss. The hateful Li Kun. It's not that you can guarantee that the king can live for two months. It's only been a month now. It's a life!
"Someone. Pulled Li Kun out and cooked to commemorate the first king. His whole family was martyred for the first king. The Empress Dowager Huayang hated the root of her teeth, and all her anger poured out on Li Kun. Pity this Imperial Doctor Ling, who is about to face the fate of being steamed alive.
"Hurry up and inform Qing'er and Changping and ask her to come back quickly. There is a lack of people next to the mourning family, and Changwen is still young. There are some things he can't do yet. "The Empress Dowager Huayang is a little helpless, it seems that Yingzheng's wedding is impossible. People are dead. Rush the joy of the egg. Besides, according to the etiquette system. Yingzheng needs to keep filial piety for King Zhuangxiang for three years, and it seems that he will not be able to marry the princess of Chu within three years.
What made the Empress Dowager Huayang grit her teeth the most was that a testament came out. The damned King Zhuangxiang actually entrusted the aftermath to Lü Buwei.
Now this guy Lu Buwei's chicken feathers are arrows, shouting five and six in Xianyang City. Playing the majesty of the regent, it seems that he wants to challenge the power of the Mi family. The two generals of the Mi family must be recruited back quickly. Otherwise, the consequences are unimaginable.
Zhao Ji leaned down on the recliner to rest, and she was tired after staying up for several days. There are many concubines in the harem. She is now a real mother and son. If nothing else, she will be the next empress dowager of Great Qin. I really didn't expect creation to be impermanent. A singer who sold herself into slavery in Handan will now become the Empress Dowager of Great Qin. The bizarre circumstances of life have never been like this.
"The Queen, Mrs. Wei, and Mrs. Han ask to see you." The maid came over and whispered, and she also knew that her master was tired. However, these two ladies have always been domineering in the harem, and she doesn't dare to offend.
"No, just say that I will serve the Queen Mother in a while." Zhao Ji has a rare long breath. Her son has become the lord of Great Qin, and she no longer has to be careful. Especially in the face of the arrogant and domineering Han Ji, there is no need to give a good face.
King Zhuang Xiang is gone, and the Empress Dowager Xia has changed from the Empress Dowager to the former Empress Dowager. Their power is already weak, and they have been suppressed by the Empress Dowager Huayang all these years. He is now holding the Empress Dowager Huayang inside, and relying on Lu Buwei's incense outside. It won't be long before the power of Empress Dowager Xia and Han Ji will collapse like summer frost. By then, hey, hey! Who cares about two old women waiting to die in the harem!
"No!" The little maid was stunned, she didn't expect that she was as timid as a rabbit in the past. The queen, who was afraid of smashing her head with a single leaf, would be so domineering now. Compared with Han Jilai, it seems to be more domineering.
"What? This slut actually ......" Han Ji's mouth was covered by Mrs. Wei, both of whom were princesses of the Three Jin Dynasty. Psychologically, it is natural to be closer.
"The queen will soon be crowned queen mother, and it is not something we can offend. I can also go back to Wei and remarry Wei or remarry another country in the future. You still have Cheng Jiao, and you can't do without Qin Ting. Listen to my sister and be more restrained! Your aunt can't protect herself now, and she can't control you. Mrs. Wei painstakingly advised.
This Mrs. Wei is in her twenties, and she has no heirs. In such a situation, the possibility of returning to the home country and remarrying someone else is very high. Now Han Ji is envious of these childless concubines, at least they can return to their home country.
She Han Ji didn't have such a good life, and her young son Cheng Cheng was not yet an adult. In the scuffle for the crown prince, he was defeated again, and the backer Empress Dowager Xia behind him was about to lose power. Everything seemed to be going against her. A dignified Korean princess wants to condescend to meet a singer. This has already made Han Ji angry, but I didn't expect Zhao Ji to see herself, which added fuel to the fire.
"It's just a singer from Zhao Guo, and today she has a face and actually gives the old lady a face. What the queen mother is, she is a fox. charmed the first king, who knows if her child is really the seed of the first king or the wild seed from somewhere. Perhaps, it was the fox who stole someone back. "I've been arrogant and domineering since I was a child, and Han Ji's anger at this time can't be suppressed even if she wants to. Actually outside the Jiaofang Palace, he shouted loudly.
The palace maids nearby hurriedly pretended to be working hard, but their ears stood up. It's like a satellite receiving antenna, trying to adjust the angle, ready to receive more powerful messages.
There are many women in the inner palace, and these women not only have long tongues, but also long ears. The deep palace is lonely, and some gossip has become a good topic to talk about after dinner.
"Don't say it, you don't know that the misfortune comes from the mouth! Hurry back to the palace! Mrs. Wei was in a hurry, and now she regretted following Mrs. Han to meet the future Queen Mother. Originally, I wanted to be a peacemaker, and it would be easier to do things when I returned to China in the future. Unexpectedly, this Mrs. Han is really not enough to succeed and more than to lose. If it continues to make trouble, it will anger the new empress dowager and not let herself return to Wei, it will be bad.
"Afraid of something! Shake out her ugly things, what a bullshit queen. is not a ** who is married to a daughter and two people, she is a singer who everyone can spoil. Now that she is actually in the position of the queen of Great Qin, could it be that the queen mother of Great Qin will let a ** do it? Today, I want to reveal her true colors and tell the world. The more Han Ji said, the more excited she became.
"Tell me again, I'll ignore you. It's none of my business for you to chew your tongue here. I'll go back to the palace first, and I'll have to guard the soul of the former king in a while. Seeing Mrs. Han's crazy appearance, Mrs. Wei hurriedly cleared up the relationship and prepared to leave. It's good to watch the excitement, and you don't dare to affect yourself.
Just as Mrs. Wei turned around and was about to leave, a pleasant voice suddenly sounded behind her.
"Mrs. Wei walked slowly, since Mrs. Han said what was in her heart. The mourning family also had to talk to Mrs. Han and said that Mrs. Wei happened to be a witness. As soon as Mrs. Wei turned around, she saw Zhao Ji walking out of the Jiaofang Palace. With a pang in his heart, he said in his heart: Sure enough, something happened, and he immediately greeted the eighteenth generation of Han Ji's ancestors one by one.
"The concubine has seen the queen! I thought that the queen was tired from working hard for days, so she came to greet her. I met Mrs. Han on the way, and I came in a group. Seeing that the queen was in good health, the concubines were relieved. Mrs. Wei hurriedly gave a salute and tried to take herself out with some rhetoric. She didn't want to be tied up with Han Ji and offend the future Empress Dowager of Great Qin.
"Mrs. Wei, get up! Your mind knows that you are a kind person, and you will not be ignorant of current affairs like some people. As soon as Zhao Ji raised her hand, she pulled Mrs. Wei up. Then he looked at Mrs. Han and said, "Mrs. Han, it is true that you said that the mourning singer was born. It's not false to marry one daughter and two people! Who in your harem stipulates that singers can't be queens?
The queen of the mourning family is enshrined by the king, and what does it have to do with you? Now I am a queen and a wife. What are you, a little lady, who dares to confront the mourners in person. It's just a matter of insulting and mourning the family when he speaks, and he dares to insult the king.
Come on, give me a slap! Zhao Jifeng's eyes suddenly stood up, and she instantly transformed into a female tiger. (To be continued.) )
