It is said that Qin Shihuang was controlled by a daughter

Halfway down the mountain, Azhi asked.

"Why did the princess come down the mountain early?"

Xu Zhi said: "It would be better for Li Xian and Wei Jiu to have some complicated arguments while I am away. Zhang Liang will arrive later and it will be difficult for them to talk while I am there."

She raised her eyes and looked at the green mountains, "Azhi, the last time you and I came to Zhongnan Mountain, it was still a snow-capped scene. We also met Jing Ke that day."

"Jing Ke and Gao Jianli got the help of Princess Gao to leave Qin. At this time, they may build buildings and sing songs in Chengdu in the southwest or in northern Xinjiang."

"That's good. If the world is peaceful, who would want to be born to be an assassin?" Xu Zhi smiled, "I didn't understand Zhuang Zhou's book at first, but I didn't expect to come to Zhongnan Mountain today to listen to the birdsong and watch the clouds disperse. , I also understand a bit of comfort. Just like this, if you leave the turmoil early and hide in the mountains and forests without adding anything outside, you will be free and happy."

"You are in the royal family, and the constraints brought by your birth are unavoidable." A Zhi comforted: "You are the princess of our Qin Kingdom, which is the unparalleled respect of Zhao Yan."

Born to bring her, her return is naturally considered a self-choice.

Xu Zhi stepped on the soft ground, and Azhi mentioned Zhao Yan, which reminded her, and asked: "After Yan Yue was sent back to the Yan Kingdom, what did King Yan do? Prince Dan died in Xianyang, or it may be said that it was me who Why, does King Yan have any objection?"

"The Qin State stopped its troops in Jicheng, and the King of Yan was grateful to the Qin State for it. He never heard of any criticism of the princess. But according to the report from the secret envoy, there seems to be discussions in the country to kill the Princess of Yan State to appease the anger of the Qin State."

"what?"

Xu Zhi frowned.

"It seems that we need to return to the palace earlier,"

Young Master Gao and Wei Liao might not have finished school yet, so they might be able to ask about Zhao Jia's situation after the Dai Di was wiped out.

"Then don't you wait for Mr. Mo Qi? The mistress said that he leaves early and comes back late, and sometimes he is not here at this peak. Zhongnan Mountain is so big that it will be difficult for the princess to find him next time."

"It's not the time yet."

Xu Zhi felt it when she saw Taoyuan's residence.

Mo Qi has no intention of being born into the world.

But she was about to jump into the whirlpool of troubled times.

There were many green trees and mountain flowers on Xu Zhi's way up the mountain, and there were many peach and pear blossoms on this road.

At the turn of the road, two weeping crabapples suddenly appeared.

The begonia flowers are elegant and unrestrained, and the branches are like brocade, like waterfalls falling from a high place.

There is a poem by Lu You that says: The scarlet parrot and green are extremely clever, and the overlapping calyx and heavy tarsus dazzle the sun.

A Zhi was surprised by the blooming flowers. She looked up and sighed, "This flower is so lush and beautiful."

It was afternoon, the sun was drowsy, and a few rays of sunlight penetrated lazily from the branches. A Zhi stood in front of the flowers. She had a beautiful face, her dress was also white and pink, and her hair was in a high bun, like a spiritual snake. This That's the real beauty.

Azhi smiled and said: "Princess, it turns out that there is such a beautiful scenery on Zhongnan Mountain. No wonder Mr. Mo Qi enjoys swimming here. If I stay here all day, all my worries will disappear."

"It is indeed pleasant. Begonias are the most beautiful at this time." Xu Zhi lowered his eyes and saw the flowers on the ground again, and said sadly: "It rained yesterday, and many of them fell. They may wither in a few days. In the past few days , you come and stay in the mountains for a while.”

"Princess……"

I saw Ying Hehua waving his hand towards her, with a smile on his face, and said to her, "Azhi, you have to choose a good time to enjoy the flowers. After time, they will not look good. Roses are thorny, so it is easy to pick two branches. It pricks your hands. It’s not so flowery, it’s in a chic shape.”

After Ying Hehua finished speaking, he knelt down to pick up crabapple flowers. There were few people in the mountain, and the flowers that had fallen aside had already covered the weeds with a thick layer. She took out the sachet embroidered with red fish from her sleeve.

Ying Hehua did not select the flowers one by one, but first took them in his hand and picked off the damaged ones. After selecting them step by step, he finally put the remaining flowers into the sachet.

When Azhi saw her putting the crabapple flowers into the sachet, he couldn't help but want to remind her that crabapples have no fragrance.

But when I saw her doing these repetitive movements, her deepness without planning made her really look like a fifteen or sixteen year old girl.

Azhi was silent, and she squatted down, picking with the little princess, and continued: "We are busy here, and I will accompany the princess. When the spring flowers bloom again, you can enjoy them every year."

Xu Zhi turned her head and looked into Azhi's eyes.

She had no resistance to the gentle and kind eyes.

"it is good."

She put away the ribbon, and the sachet became bulging and heavy.

Xu Zhi was thinking about this problem when she was picking up flowers. When she stood up, she compared the size again. It was estimated that the diameter was less than ten centimeters.

She thinks it's feasible.

"If you like this tree, then dig it back to Zhilan Palace instead of coming to the mountains to see it."

How could a princess spend so much time on her maid's preferences? A-Zhi had the illusion of being pampered. She was more frightened and shook her head quickly, "...Princess, it's too troublesome to come over and over again. Wait until it grows up." In the mountains."

Xu Zhi thought that the plum garden was mostly filled with plum trees, most of which were planted by Ying Zheng for her mother and concubine. The addition of a crabapple was really unexpected.

After walking for a while, there were more birds singing in the crimson forest at the foot of the mountain.

The road up the mountain was long, and although it was not steep, it was not easy to walk due to the night rain and the muddy road. If she had not put on wooden clogs, the walk would have been even more time-consuming and laborious.

Zhang Liang was holding a green staff, walking lightly, and his clothes were still clean and tidy.

"Sir?" Xu Zhi took a few steps and ran to him.

Because A-Zhi was by her side, she quickly stopped the usual movement of opening her arms.

Azhi smiled softly and looked at a big banyan tree at the foot of the mountain, "Princess, I'll wait for you over there."

"Yes." Xu Zhi nodded, "I'll talk to you in a while."

Zhang Liang wears black clothes underneath and a white diamond-patterned robe on the outside, which complements the Zhongnan Mountain.

Perhaps it is because there have always been noble people living in seclusion here. On the way up the mountain, some nobles built dozens of stone stairs here.

Xu Zhi stood on the ladder at the same level as Zhang Liang, with weeping pink peach blossoms on both sides.

Seeing that he didn't bring anyone with him, she took a step closer, raised her head slightly, and looked into his eyes, "Why are you going up the mountain? Didn't you say you would wait for me at the bottom of the mountain?"

"It's still early, so I want to go up the mountain. It seems that I am indeed destined to Hehua, and I can meet him wherever he goes."

There was no ups and downs in his tone.

However, Xu Zhi rarely heard Zhang Liang say this. He thought he was about to leave Qin, so no matter how taciturn he was, he still felt a sense of farewell.

She said: "It's not fate, but I specifically want to meet you." She raised her head and smiled, "As long as you are willing, I will stand in front of you like this."

Zhang Liang didn't want to get into the details of why she asked him to come to Zhongnan Mountain. Once he was willing to think about it, he didn't want to look into those black eyes that looked very much like King Qin.

Zhang Liang did not take the same path that Xu Zhi and Wei Jiu took up the mountain. However, he happened to see horse hooves at the foot of the mountain and identified the direction as coming from the official road. He was riding a horse, so it couldn't be Wei Jiu.

There is probably an acquaintance on this mountain, and he doesn't stop on holidays.

In fact, when he saw Ying Hehua, he originally wanted to question her, who on earth was she here to see?

Unexpectedly, she would not give him a chance to speak. She opened and closed her mouth. When such gentle words came out of her mouth, he couldn't help but stop all questions.

"The mountain road is muddy and difficult to walk on. It's still cold on the mountain right now. I heard you coughing before. It won't be good if it gets cold when you go back."

Xu Zhi took out the handkerchief from his sleeve and prepared to wipe the sweat on his forehead, but accidentally took out the sachet from his sleeve.

She had just put a lot of crabapple flowers in, and the stone staircase was slanted. When the sachet fell to the ground, it was like a small sandbag, rolling all the way down.

"Ugh!"

Xu Zhi moved quickly to chase after the fish. The fish was embroidered very ugly, and she had already foreseen how much mud it would roll on. It would be really embarrassing if Zhang Liang saw it...

"Don't, don't run away." She was calling the sachet to stop.

The bunch of the sachet fell apart and the begonia flowers fell to the ground.

Xu Zhi finally caught up with the sachet. She quickly grabbed it and wiped off the mud with her hands in a hurry. Unexpectedly, this wipe completely wiped away the mud.

Very good, the red koi carp turned into black crucian carp, and the gray-white silk bottom was dyed brown-black.

...Who gives a sachet and a big crucian carp as a gift?

When Xu Zhi quickly stuffed things into his sleeves, Zhang Liang had already walked down a few steps, "He Hua?"

When she heard his voice, her hand shook and the sachet fell to the ground again.

Just as Xu Zhi was about to stop him, Zhang Liang leaned over and picked it up.

Zhang Liang spoke a step faster than her, "What is this?"

She didn't want to take another look at the unrecognizable sachet. She wanted to grab it, but Zhang Liang turned towards him, lowered his eyes, and said something incomprehensible, his tone a little lower, "He Hua wants to take this." Give me something as a gift?"

Xu Zhi was at a loss. Her eyes were still on the embroidery that turned into a black fish. She laughed dryly and blurted out, "Haha, it's a cartoon."

"What is a cartoon?"

"This, cartoon means very cute. This is a, uh, Sister Wang said, this is a new embroidery method." Xu Zhi said seriously.

If they were not blind, normal people at her level would be able to tell that her embroidery skills were poor.

Zhang Liang looked at her seriously, and Xu Zhi was no longer ready to struggle. She sighed, "Well, Sister Wang never said that at all... That's about my level. I originally wanted to embroider plum blossoms, but I No, this fish has become like this."

"I feel good."

"Ah?" Xu Zhi looked surprised, which was a great encouragement to her. She hurried over, took the sachet, pointed to the fish on the silk cloth, looked up and explained to him, "This is a carp. , it’s red. It’s not just red. I used white thread, orange thread, and red thread. It’s really time-consuming, and it’s more difficult than interpreting the book of ministers.”

Her tone gradually transitioned to pride.

Zhang Liang asked again, "Are you giving it to me?"

"I originally wanted to give it to you, but now it's smeared with mud and I can't take it out." She said, her head hanging down again.

"It's better to throw it away. I'll embroider another one for you."

"This one is very good." The sachet in Xu Zhi's hand was taken away by Zhang Liang, but all the flowers inside fell out during the rolling process. She bit her lip and looked at him with watery eyes, "Then, I'll go pick up the flowers."

Those fallen flowers were all high up, and Xu Zhi had to go up the stairs to pick them up.

She turned away, and the moment she turned back, Zhang Liang suddenly pulled her back.

He half-tightened her slender waist, easily lifted her, turned her around, and carried her to the top.

Her toes were hanging in the air, her heart suddenly tightened, and she grabbed his sleeve, "Ovary?"

Xu Zhi was placed on the stone ladder one step above him, and he let go of her.

She was able to see straight.

He came closer and his voice was a little lower than usual, "I am very happy with this in your hand."

Zhang Liang smiled gently at her.

At this time, Xu Zhi couldn't tell whether he was deceiving people or him.

Zhang Liang looked at her, with an unavoidable look in his gentle eyes.

If Xu Zhi understood correctly, he meant that she should go there by herself.

When it comes to scheming, she can't play better than Zhang Liang.

The last sound was swallowed. He occupied her lips and tongue gently and considerately.

She was more nervous after all. A Zhi was still waiting for her below. Once she met Zhang Liang, she was already helpless.

Private meeting. This is a private meeting. The other party was her former young master, who was about to go on an envoy to the Kingdom of Wei. Uninformed people saw that Princess Yong'an was obviously trying to win over important officials by any means necessary.

She thought of Yan Dan's vicious smile.

She suddenly exclaimed and her teeth trembled.

There seemed to be fog in the forest, making her eyes filled with moisture.

He smoothed her hair, and the petals of pear blossoms quietly fell into her hair with the wind. She looked at the patches of pear blossom trees below, and then she experienced the pleasure of flower viewing several times.

Zhang Liang will leave for Wei soon. If we follow the old trajectory, the three months Wei will be trapped in Daliang will be unpredictable.

If Zhang Er, Liu Bang, and Chen Ping met like this, if the old events really happened step by step, she wouldn't know which one to kill first.

This letting go is ultimately the difference between Zhongnan Mountain and Qin Palace.

When you are in it, the variegated colors in the mountains cover your eyes.

She took out a Qin copper coin from her sleeve.

"Zifang, go to Qin and return to Qin, life and death are determined by fate, He Hua chooses the words."

She threw it and only stopped at a small height in the air before she was quickly pressed into his palm.

Zhang Liang took her into his arms.

Her heart was pounding and her hands were still muddy, so she didn't dare to hug him back.

Zhang Liang, he will not allow himself to have any retreat or hesitation after taking this step.

He bowed his head and whispered to the person in his arms: "He Hua, Liang doesn't like gambling in his life."

Xu Zhiyimo's answer made it clear that he was willing to seek a possibility.

She hugged him emotionally and said, "I'll wait for you."

The black shadow standing higher up had gloomy eyes. The next moment, his pupils suddenly shrank, and he escaped into the infinite darkness and abyss.

There were only splayed claws and broken bones.

Her back was turned to her, her elbows were slightly bent, and her embrace of Zhang Liang was clearly visible.

Wearing a red dress, her long soft black hair reaches waist length, and jade ornaments that often sway quietly fall at the end of her hair. She is held in someone's arms, how can she be so well-behaved and docile?

The bone-piercing pain cannot overpower the pain in my heart.

The scabbard was opened a little, and the silver-white sword edge was stained with bright red.

He tightened his grip on the sword's edge, and also tightened his grip on the apple blossom branch.

The blade cut open the skin of the palm, and the fallen flowers mixed with the blood fell into the soil drop by drop.

It was crushed into pieces and melted into the loess.
