Volume 5 Chapter 70 Empress Dowager Xia
Ying Zheng was so frightened that he seemed to have lost his soul, and when he was about to ask someone to catch him, Zhongli grabbed him and said, "It's okay, she can't fall." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”
Everyone is very nervous, tonight's battle in the Zhong Palace, everything is for Meng Jiang. If she dies, then these people are all doing useless work.
A soft ribbon stretched out from the top floor of the drum tower, wrapped up Meng Jiang in mid-air, and pulled it back suddenly, and the person fell back to the third-floor corridor.
A girl with a pink face jumped directly from the fourth floor to the third floor, and her gentle posture slowly stood in front of Meng Jiang like a feather. Those eyes were slightly ruddy, smooth and smart, staring closely at Meng Jiang in front of him.
The girl kept complaining in her heart, this sister is really hateful, she dares to threaten Brother Zheng with her life, and she must teach her a lesson.
stepped forward, fixed Meng Jiang's soft hemp hole, and tied it to the pillar with the ribbon in his hand. He didn't look at anyone, turned around and entered the third floor, and he didn't know where he went.
At the moment of jumping, Meng Jiang was already completely desperate for Yingzheng, and he had already said it so clearly, the two of them could leave everything behind and fly away. But being rejected by your beloved, there is no point in living in this world.
It doesn't matter if you're dead, at least you don't have to think about so many things, and you don't have any worries. Continuing to live only increased the hatred for each other, and those partners who came to rescue her fell in front of her one by one.
This kind of hatred is unforgettable.
The breeze blew, Meng Jiang opened his eyes, he didn't die, who was harming himself? Why save your own life? If you are still alive, those hatreds, those hatreds, cannot be offset.
The whole body is weak, it should be that the person pointed at the numb point, and it is to meet the attention of everyone in the square. This is a kind of shame, the dignified princess of Chu State, being tied up in front of the public, and being admired by both the enemy and me, this is even more uncomfortable than dying.
Ying Zheng hurriedly said: "Jiang Er must no longer have the idea of suicide, the person who saved you is the master of the Drum Tower Palace, in her territory, she won't let you die, and you can't die." ”
Meng Jiang sneered: "Then you can tie me up in front of everyone and suffer humiliation?" ”
Ying Zheng sighed: "It can only be said that she is angry, in fact, it is not a shame to be tied up by her, because she is a descendant of the Mi family, and she is tied up by her own people, what is there to be ashamed of?" The point is that I can't let you go now, what if you kill yourself again? ”
Meng Jiang said: "Then let them go." ”
Ying Zheng shook his head and said, "No, it's still the same sentence, there must be a result tonight." ”
This contradiction was irreconcilable, Meng Jiang closed his eyes, stopped talking, and did not dare to look at Yingzheng's next killing.
Seeing that Meng Jiang no longer spoke, the matter with her needs to wait for a later time. The most important thing now is to find out who is the mastermind.
The people who attacked the Zhong Hall should have come here in batches, and there was no unified command, only a leader like Mao Mao. So when attacking, the front and back are not coordinated. As a result, the siege vehicle only hit the temple gate once, and no sound came from it again.
If so, there will be a lot of people to kill tonight. Looking at these people kneeling in front of them, their weapons had long been discarded, surrounded by guards, and they had become lambs to the slaughter, and they had no heart to resist.
Since Ying Zheng is here, they would rather be killed by Ying Zheng than dare to resist again. If you resist, it is a great crime of rebellion, and this crime is to accept the punishment of Zhulian, and even the family will suffer.
Besides, in this case, can the revolt work? It's better to go haste, so that Yingzheng's anger will disappear, and with the character of this new king, he shouldn't be able to connect with others.
Ying Zheng said: "This king repeats, people from outside the palace stand up, otherwise they will kill you one by one from the outside to the inside......
Before he could finish speaking, he heard a cough.
Not only Ying Zheng was stunned, but the people kneeling on the ground were also stunned, everyone was wondering, who else in the Great Qin Palace dared to interrupt King Qin's speech? Except for the Empress Dowager Huayang, it is estimated that there is no one else. But the Empress Dowager Huayang will not come here at all, so who else will there be?
Ying Zheng turned his head and looked at the gate of the Zhong Palace, where there was an old woman with a gorgeous face and vicissitudes of life, as well as Xinbo, the personal eunuch of the former king. It was the old woman who interrupted him, but he had not seen her.
Mao Mao and the others, who were kneeling on the ground, trembled all over their bodies, but they didn't dare to speak. The sadness of the original kneeling on one knee, the first time he saw this old woman, he knelt down on both knees, drooping his head, and did not dare to look at her.
The old woman coughed a few times with a pleasant face before she spoke: "This man, after walking a few steps, he is sleepy, and he has walked for an hour from my thatched hut to this bell hall, and he is old, he is really old." ”
"Zheng'er, I wonder if I can step through this door? As long as you say no, grandma will never step in. If you want to be powerful, you should be, but it's a pity that these people all went out from me, so they had to go this way. ”
Ying Zheng said: "Who are you?" Which palace is the old man? Why I've never met you. ”
The old woman smiled: "It's a good thing that you haven't seen me, if Huayang knows that you recognize me, you will definitely be sad and can't sleep." Xiao Yezi did a good job, and I didn't tell Zheng'er about your visit to me last year. ”
Ying Zheng looked at Lin Ye curiously, and Lin Ye hurriedly said: "But you didn't say your identity, Ye Zi has also checked for a long time, but I can't find out who you are?" ”
"Big brother, this grandmother is very kind and easy to talk to. I didn't dare to tell you before I knew her identity, but my grandmother spoke in too loud tone, and if you heard it, you would inevitably get angry, so I didn't dare to say it. ”
Zhongli stepped forward, stared at the old woman carefully through the doorway, and said coldly: "No matter who you are, as long as you dare to step into the Zhong Palace, you can't get out easily. ”
The old woman showed a gentle expression, nodded and smiled: "The old body feels very relieved, my swordsmaid of Daqin is really very principled, and she is a good helper to assist Zheng'er." ”
"But I still have to step through this door, because those who are caught by you are my people. If I don't step in, you won't be able to judge anything, will you? ”
Saying this, Zhongli also felt tricky, from the performance of Mao Mao and the others, they would not say anything, and would rather die than say it. But who is this old woman in front of her? I can't even find Lin Ye, it must be related to the previous king.
The old woman stepped into the temple gate with one foot, walked very slowly, and said as she walked: "I have come here, how can I not dare to go?" Only if I came, Zheng'er could understand why they were doing this farce. ”
Xinbo took three steps back, bent down and followed. Zhongli walked side by side with the old woman, staring at her actions all the time, and said coldly: "This is not a farce, there are siege engines in the palace, and they dare to storm my gate, which is already a major crime of rebellion." ”
The old woman said, "Even if it is a farce, it is impossible to rebel, because they dare not rebel against me." Where I live, Xiaoyezi knows, it's just a remote bamboo forest and a thatched house. ”
"There is a stone chime in front of the bamboo forest, engraved with 'Beigong Yuefu', and there is a dilapidated stone slab next to it, engraved with the word 'private palace'."
"Great Qin Palace, who dares to keep a private palace? Even Huayang didn't dare. In addition to me, there is now another place, which is the bell hall where the swordsman is here. ”
"There are many things in this palace that you don't know. For example, the siege vehicle in front of the gate was stolen from me by a subordinate. There are not only siege chariots, but also six-horse chariots, large bows and crossbows to defend the city walls, and equipment for the army. ”
Ying Zheng was also aroused by curiosity and asked: "Inside the palace, there shouldn't be such a large instrument. ”
The old woman laughed, "Why shouldn't it?" I am a great Qin martial artist, and every generation of kings must skillfully use all kinds of tools. I don't know about the palaces of the other princes, but I have to have the Xianyang Palace of Qin. ”
"Who dares to say that there are no usurpers plotting for the throne? Who would dare to say that they would not be invaded by the nations? Who would dare to say that one day when the Qin Palace will not be attacked? Plan ahead, think of things that others dare not think, and who can know what will happen in the future? ”
"The old body was very afraid of death, so when a private palace was set up, these utensils were privately transported into the palace for self-protection. Many people are reluctant to go to my thatched hut, and many people are afraid to go if they want to. Those who don't want to go are afraid to see me and be nagged by me; People who want to go but don't dare to go are also afraid of me, afraid that I will take away her power, such as Huayang, which you are familiar with, she does not dare to go to me. ”
"As for the swordsman saying that she was rebelling, I said it was a farce. The siege engines are mine, and they are my people, will they turn against me? If we talk about the rebellion of the politicians, what is the difference between it and the rebellion of mine? ”
"Zheng'er, the reason why I say this is because you are my grandson, I am your own grandmother, the wife of the first king Qin Xiaowen Wang Yingzhu, the biological mother of Qin Zhuang Xiangwang Yingyiren, and the Empress Dowager Xia Ji."
As soon as he said this, Lin Ye, Ling Yu and the others all gasped. This person is still alive, if it is really such an identity, Zhongli doesn't know what to do.
What those people do can only be characterized as nonsense, and has nothing to do with rebellion. Even if he rebels, there is no reason to rebel against his grandson, Zhongli still understands this truth.
Ying Zheng was also stunned by what he said, his father and mother didn't tell him about it, and he actually had his own grandmother alive. The old woman in front of her is really Grandma Xia Ji back then?
remembers that her father, Yingzi Chu, was sent to Zhao Guo as a hostage, which was also her idea. After all, there are many descendants of the first king Yingzhu, and many princes are competing for that position, so this grandmother listened to Fan Ju's plan and sent Yingzi Chu to Zhao State. and find someone to take care of him in private, maybe Lu Buwei is also one of them.
It's just that this person's plan is too deep, even Lu Buwei was tricked unconsciously, and no one has ever talked about her, and maybe Zhao Ji doesn't know the existence of this person. Ying Zichu didn't say it, maybe because the power of Huayang Palace was too great, he was afraid that he would know too much and cause more trouble.
There is still a little doubt that can be explained, that is, there are so many protons in various countries, why Bai Qi is staring at Yingzi Chu and Yingzheng who are hostages in Zhao State. If it weren't for Bai Qi's nod, how could Xia Ji have pulled these large instruments from the barracks into the palace?
Xia Ji spoke very slowly, but the content revealed in this made Ying Zheng deeply understand that the old woman in front of her was her own grandmother.
