A Romantic Story of a Girl from the Qin Dynasty

As soon as Ying Zheng said this, Shi Yi understood that from the time she helped Zhao Lijiang to this point, she had never even said a word in front of Ying Zheng. Not to mention whether Ying Zheng knew whether the slave in front of him could read or not, he probably didn't. I know this person’s name!

Although he was angry, Shi Yi still chose not to change his expression, lowered his head and replied

"As for the young master, I have only read it briefly and know a little bit about it."

This aroused Ying Zheng's interest. He had never known that women could read military books.

"Tell me, what have you read?"

The opportunity just came? !

Shi Yi was so excited at this moment. She never expected that Sun Tzu's Art of War, which she used to read when she had nothing to do, could not be said to be a favorite, would now become an important tool to establish contact with Ying Zheng!

Shi Yi was still kneeling respectfully. Although she was full of confidence, she had to pretend to be frightened. She pretended to hesitate whether to speak. When Ying Zheng saw her hesitating, he reminded her again.

"If you have your own opinion, just say it, there is no one else here, and I won't blame you."

Although he has a cold face, he is delicate and gentle in his heart. Shi Yi's impression of him has changed before he even said a few words to Ying Zheng. Even if he is the monarch who will dominate the world in the future, he will still have some problems. Vice gentle-hearted.

This... may be your only chance, and you must seize it firmly!

Shi Yi took a deep breath and spoke slowly.

"Sun Tzu said: The military is a major matter of the country, the place of life and death, and the way of survival. Just like the current situation, the seven countries divide the world equally and compete with each other. No matter which country's monarch, they all have ambitions to annex other countries. There have been continuous wars, but at this point, it cannot be said which country has the advantage, even if..."

Shi Yi swallowed, and boldly glanced at Ying Zheng in front of him, and saw his menacing eyes staring at him! She quickly looked away and said

"Even though the general trend of the world has tilted towards Qin, the young master... still cannot take it lightly. He arranges troops and formations, selects trusted ministers and generals, is good at buying people's hearts, and establishes his own prestige in the court. These... All are indispensable in order to conquer the world.”

A slightly embarrassed and nervous voice floated in the pavilion. Ying Zheng did not respond. Shi Yi looked at him again and saw his expressionless face and cold eyes. She hesitated for a moment and then boldly said

"Young master, although I am just a little maid, I also know that one is Tao, the second is heaven, the third is earth, the fourth is general, and the fifth is law. If the master needs me to give advice, I... must do my best. Try your best!"

After speaking, she lowered her head and waited for Ying Zheng's response.

After a long time, I heard a sound from above my head.

"What's your name?"

As soon as these words came out, Shi Yi suddenly felt that she had taken a big step towards her goal, as if she had already seen the bright road. She raised her head suddenly, suppressing the joy in her heart, and still responded respectfully.

"If I return to the master, my name is Shi Yi."

Shi Yi?

Ying Zheng was stunned.

Shi Yi, Shi Mi, these two names were so close that his thoughts immediately flew back to the Kingdom of Zhao, to Shi Mi, who was thinking about it day and night.

It has been almost a year. Time has passed too fast and too slowly. There has been no news about her for a year. I don’t know if she is well or not. In this year of not seeing each other, Shimi... Never thought of me?

Shi Yi, who was kneeling on the ground, saw that Ying Zheng was suddenly stunned, and timidly reminded him

"Back to the young master, this servant is the personal maid who serves Empress Zhao Ji."

"is it?"

Ying Zheng looked at her again.

It seemed... somewhat familiar, as if he had seen it in his mother's palace, but when he saw it, Ying Zheng could not remember at all.

"Get up, you don't have to kneel all the time."

Ying Zheng smiled. This faint smile made Shi Yi, who acted vigorously and recklessly, feel warm in his heart. Looking at the originally cold-faced monarch, his smile was very warm, and... there was a cute boyish air.

Just when Shi Yi wanted to take this opportunity to talk more about Sun Tzu's Art of War, a figure flashed behind her and said something leisurely behind her ear.

"Sir, Wang Jian was delayed because of something. He's late."

This voice that sounded in his ears startled Shi Yi. There was only one such elusive person in the Qin Palace!

She turned around and saw that it was indeed the haunting Wang Jian whom she had just met!

She glared at him angrily, her eyes full of disgust and anger. Now she and Ying Zheng had the right atmosphere! What is this guy doing? Is it possible that after knowing his ambition, he deliberately sabotaged it?

Shi Yi was furious, but she didn't dare to get angry. She was afraid that Wang Jian would reveal her purpose, so she could only bow to him slightly, then turn around and not look at him.

"Wang Jian, where have you been? You kept me waiting for so long!"

When Ying Zheng saw Wang Jian coming, his expression changed again. It was not the guarded one before, but he smiled from the bottom of his heart.

Naturally, Wang Jian would not expose Shi Yi's trick. He just smiled at Shi Yi with a hint of meaning, as if to tell her that your pretentious behavior is really funny.

Shi Yi's face was almost turning green with anger, but he had to endure it!

"I heard you guys talking about "The Art of War" just now, and I heard that this girl seemed to know a little bit about it."

"Yes, she did say that just now."

Shi Yi stared at Wang Jian, wanting to kill him. He didn't know whether Wang Jian would keep his promise and not care about his future as queen.

At this moment, her heart was pounding, fearing that her good start would be ruined by Wang Jian!

But Wang Jian just looked at Shi Yi with a smile, and then stopped looking at her. Instead, he stood next to Ying Zheng and said

"It is very rare for a woman to be familiar with the art of war."

What? Does he want to help me? Just when Shi Yi was about to get happy, Wang Jian added with a smile.

"It's just that... I have never actually led an army to fight. Even if I am familiar with the art of war, I can only talk about it on paper. To truly lead an army, you must adapt to local conditions and be flexible. If you stick to the art of war, you may... lose more than you gain."

He really had no intention of helping him! Instead, he used the art of war to satirize himself for not having the strength to command thousands of troops!

Shi Yi could only watch Wang Jian look like a villain, pretending not to know anything, and even deliberately asked

"The girl just said she wanted to help the young master? How can she help?"

Shi Yi seemed calm on the outside, but his heart was already turbulent! She has secretly made up her mind that after today, she will give this boy a chance to make him dare to talk too much!

"I'm just trying my best. As a maid, I am naturally not as capable as Mr. Wang. If you are a master, Empress Zhao Ji needs a maid. No matter what happens, even if it means going up mountains of swords and seas of fire, I will be willing to do so!"
