Qin Dynasty: Sword Asks the Bright Moon

Zhao Ji looked at Yang Ming in a daze, and Yang Ming's firm voice just now echoed in her ears: the Queen Mother's face is more important than her humble life.

As the empress dowager of the Qin State, Zhao Ji would never be under Lu Buwei's authority if she didn't really know how to use it. But even if Zhao Ji was not good at power, she would still be unparalleled in the Qin State. An existence that can and no one dares to ignore.

There are too many people who express their loyalty in front of her, sincere, false, or with other agendas. People have all kinds of thoughts, and the hands they use are all kinds of strange. Zhao Ji has long been used to this, and is even numb. .

But when Yang Ming's words were heard in Zhao Ji's ears and fell into her heart, they caused a violent shock in her mind. Seeing that there was still childishness between the eyebrows and eyes in front of her eyes, her upper lip had grown thicker at some point. Yang Ming, who had a light beard, and Zhao Ji fell into silence.

At this moment, she was willing to believe that Yang Ming was loyal to her, even if it was false, she was willing to believe it.

But when the words came to her mouth, Zhao Ji asked: "Why? Because the Ai family is the Queen Mother of the Qin Dynasty and can determine your glory and wealth?"

"No." Yang Ming denied.

"What's that for?" Zhao Ji said coldly, with a hint of fear in her heart.

"Because the Queen Mother looks like the same person." Yang Ming said.

"Who?" Zhao Ji asked.

"A deceased relative in a humble position." Yang Ming replied.

"who is it?"

"My humble aunt." Yang Ming said frankly.

"Your aunt? Your aunt looks very much like Ai?" Zhao Ji said in surprise. She never expected that Yang Ming's answer would be such an answer.

"It's not like that, the Queen Mother, you are like a phoenix in the sky, with unparalleled beauty, while the humble aunt is just an ordinary farm woman in the manor. How can your beauty be compared with that of the Queen Mother," Yang Ming denied.

"Then you are deceiving the Ai family?" Zhao Ji said coldly, seeming to be angry with embarrassment.

"I don't dare, Beizi. The resemblance that Beizi talks about is not a physical resemblance, but another kind of resemblance, one of spirit and rhyme." Yang Ming explained in a flustered manner.

"Ai family, listen, if you dare to lie to Ai family, Ai family will make you a servant. It just so happens that your martial arts are not bad." Zhao Ji threatened.

"Because Queen Mother, you said something to me. When you said that sentence, I was almost exactly the same as my aunt," Yang Ming said.

"What words?" Zhao Ji asked suspiciously. She said a lot to Yang Ming, how could she remember every word?

"At that time, I encountered an assassination due to my humble position. Queen Mother, do you think anyone who dares to touch a member of the Ai family will be killed without a burial place by the Ai family," Yang Ming said.

"Aijia said this to you?" Zhao Ji recalled, as if she must distinguish the truth from Yang Ming's words.

"The chamberlain of Zhao Gao at that time relayed your words, the Queen Mother." Yang Ming said.

Amid Zhao Ji's suspicion, Yang Ming continued: "Although I don't know how the Queen Mother said these words at that time, I can imagine that the Queen Mother loves and cares for me, just like my little aunt. When I was a child , my aunt also protects me in this way."

Zhao Ji, who had recalled that she had indeed said what she just said, softened her expression and asked, "Were you ever bullied when you were a child?"

"Yes, Queen Mother, you also know that my humble father was a soldier captured by the Zhao army after the Battle of Zhaodu. Although my father's men later married and had children in Zhao, the hatred between Qin and Zhao has not been eliminated. Your Excellency also knows Be restrained, but children will be unscrupulous. When I was a child, I was often bullied by my peers because I was half-Qin blood. Every time at this time, my aunt would stand up to protect me and break up those people. ." Yang Ming showed a look of recollection, writing stories in his memories.

"The Ai family can understand what you are saying. The Ai family and the king were also in the Zhao capital back then, and the Ai family have also experienced your situation." Zhao Ji said, with a sad look on her face.

Stories require empathy, and for Yang Ming's story, the person who can empathize most is Zhao Ji in front of her.

She was also in Zhao State back then, and it was almost at the same time in Yang Ming's story. At that time, she and the young Qin Wangzheng were thrown into the Zhao capital, and the situation they faced was even more miserable than Yang Ming's. The Changping War had just ended at that time, which was when the hatred between Qin and Zhao was at its strongest. As for her and Qin Wangzheng who stayed in the capital of Zhao, one can imagine their living conditions.

"My aunt was the only person who protected Beizhong when he was young, and you, the Queen Mother, are also the only people who protected Beizhong when he grew up." Yang Ming said sincerely.

"I see, but do you know that maybe Ai Jia was just angry when he said this and didn't really want to protect you?" Zhao Ji's expression became more serious.

"That's not important for a humble position." Yang Ming said.

"It's not important. Do you really want to take over the affairs of Luowang Wei?" Zhao Ji asked.

"Yes, Queen Mother, Luo Wang's strength is very important, and the power in the Wei State is even more important. If we can save him from life and death, it will definitely be a great achievement. After returning, he will be promoted and make a fortune. How can he not be tempted by a humble position?" ?" Yang Ming said half-truthfully.

"You little fox, you don't have a few truths in your mouth." Zhao Ji sneered. Naturally, she didn't believe Yang Ming's reasons at this time. At this time, there was only one sentence in Zhao Ji's mind: The Queen Mother's face is more beautiful than anything else. The lives of those in humble positions are important.

"You must be careful. As long as you can come back safely, even if the mission fails, the Ai family can protect you and promote you and make you rich." Zhao Ji warned.

It’s done. Yang Ming was determined in his heart that he was not interested in the Sun-cloaking Sword, but he was very interested in the power behind the Sun-cloaking Sword.

As for deceiving Zhao Ji, it is not entirely a lie. At least half of what Yang Ming said is true. Although the aunt in his childhood does not exist, the aunt in front of him can make her become real. The presence.

Besides, even if the so-called lie is only half, it actually doesn't matter. It's better to lie to Zhao Ji yourself than to lie to others. At least you won't trick her or your 'little aunt'.

Luowang, what makes people fearful in this era is its powerful killer organization, but in Yang Ming's eyes, where Luowang should really play its role, in addition to the killer organization, the more important thing is intelligence.

Although time and space have changed, many rules have changed, but there are also unchanging rules. If intelligence can be used to the extreme, it still has unimaginable power.

How could Yang Ming not covet such a force? The position of Captain Ganquan Palace was important, and it would be great to be able to play a role, but Luo Wang could provide Yang Ming with a grander stage.

Moreover, whether it is the matter of the purple girl or the matter of Jingren, the best solution is to intervene in the net, or even control the net.

After returning to the palace, Zhao Ji took off the blood-stained socks on her feet and looked at the bright blood stains on them. She looked confused and didn't know what she was thinking for a while.

"Your Majesty, do you want me to clean these socks, or burn them?" the maid serving Zhao Ji asked carefully.

"Burn it." Zhao Ji said casually.

"Yes." The palace maid took the snare and prepared to walk out of the palace.

"Wait a minute." Zhao Ji suddenly stopped the palace maid again.

"Queen Mother?" the palace maid asked in surprise.

"Put it away for the Ai family." Zhao Ji said, "Put it away."

"yes."

Mirror Garden.

Jing salamander looked at the rouge box on the table and fell into confusion. She had never bought anything like this before. This was what Yang Ming sent today. Since that night, Yang Ming has never been here. Mirror flower, but every day someone will send a small gift.

It would be a silk scarf, a pair of earrings, a simple hairpin, and today it was the rouge box in front of Jing Salamander.

"I'm leaving." Jing Salamander looked away and said to Li Wu.

"Sister, are you going on a mission?" Li Wu asked, but then she realized her mistake. Inquiring about other people's missions was a real taboo in the trap.

But this time Jing Salamander answered Li Wu: "Yes."

"What about Yang Ming?" Li Wu asked.

The only response from Li Wu was Jingyu's silence.

When Yang Ming followed his usual habit of visiting Jinghua Garden every ten days, he failed to see Jing Salamander in Li Wu's room.

"She left?" Yang Ming asked.

"Well, I left today." Li Wu replied. Although Yang Ming didn't say 'her' name, Li Wu still knew who Yang Ming was talking about. Although this Jinghua Garden is full of beauties, it can be entered But there was only that one person in Yang Ming's eyes.

After Li Wu said this, she carefully observed Yang Ming's expression, but all she saw was Yang Ming's calmness, like the calmness of a pool of quiet water.

Looking at Yang Ming like this, Li Wu couldn't help but sigh softly. She still failed. In the face of Luo Wang's order, even a first-class killer like Jingshao had no choice. How could she really do it? Escape from the trap of fate?

"She took away all the gifts you gave her before." In the wordless silence, Li Wu said.

"Fortunately, the gifts I gave are all small things. If it is something big, it won't tire her out." Yang Ming smiled, without even a trace of sadness at all.

"Tsk, Yang Ming, you..." After hearing Yang Ming's words, Li Wu couldn't help but picture the slender figure of Jing Salamander carrying a huge burden, which overwhelmed her. She thought Li Wu, who was carrying such a big burden, couldn't help but laugh.

"This is what she left for you. Well, although she didn't say it explicitly, I know that this is the gift she left for you." Li Wu said as she walked to the closet next to her, took out a small wooden box and gave it to Yang In front of Ming.

Yang Ming took the wooden box and gently opened the lid. A silver metal mask appeared inside. Yang Ming picked up the mask and placed it on his face. He found that the mask fit perfectly with his facial features.

"This mask is pretty good-looking." Li Wu looked at Yang Ming's mask, but couldn't help but think of another mask. Although the two masks were different in size, the format was exactly the same because they were made by the same person.

"Li Wu, I also want to let you see something." Yang Ming said and opened the wooden box he brought.

"What is this?" Li Wu asked curiously. The wooden box Yang Ming brought was very long. Li Wu originally thought it was the gift that Yang Ming gave to Jing Salamander, but now it doesn't seem to be the case.

As Yang Ming pushed the wooden box open, a sword hilt appeared in Li Wu's sight: "This!" Li Wu could not hide his shock.

As the wooden boxes were all opened, a long sword appeared in Li Wu's sight.

"The words "Luowang Killing" first met Lord Zhanri." Li Wu knelt down in the tunnel in shock.
