Qin Dynasty: Sword Asks the Bright Moon

In the fifth year of Qin Wangzheng's reign, Qin Wangzheng was already eighteen years old. In this era, although there is a tradition that men should be crowned when they are twenty years old, facing the reality, it is not impossible to be crowned in advance.

The eighteen-year-old Qin Wangzheng has reached the age to be crowned, and he is also getting married. Getting married is also one of the important signs of a man's adulthood in this era.

Therefore, during the wedding of Qin Wangzheng, all the important ministers and nobles of Qin State watched the wedding with their own thoughts.

The king's wedding was very grand, and the whole Xianyang city was decorated with lights and colorful decorations. As dusk came, the wedding entered the central stage.

Dressed in a formal palace dress, Zhao Ji, as the biological mother of Qin Wangzheng, occupied the main seat in the middle hall of Xianyang Palace. Next to her were the Queen Mother Huayang and the Queen Mother Xia.

These three women can be said to be the three most powerful women in the Qin State today. As the political biological mother of King Qin, Zhao Ji has the real power of regent. She is in charge of the Tiger Talisman of the Qin State. The appointment of officials with more than one thousand dan in the Qin State must be added. The Empress Dowager's seal must be stamped on Zhao Ji to take effect. Its power is so great that if Zhao Ji has enough ability to control this power, although she cannot reproduce the majestic power of Empress Dowager Xuan, she will still be enough to become the most powerful being in the Qin State. .

As the leader of the Chu clan who holds an important position in the power structure of the Qin State, the Queen Mother Huayang has become more and more low-key in recent years with the expansion of Lu Buwei's power, but no one can underestimate this person who once played a key role in the first two years. A woman who holds a decisive position in the dynasty.

As for the Queen Mother Xia, although she is not as powerful as Zhao Ji and the Queen Mother Huayang, due to her identity and slightly embarrassing position, she naturally has a strong appeal to the Qin clan.

The three women looked at the bride in royal robes and attire, but they had their own thoughts under the joyful expressions.

"My Zheng'er is leaving me." Zhao Ji looked at her son Qin Wangzheng, who had grown tall and tall without knowing when, and felt happy but also felt empty in her heart.

Zhao Ji was actually not satisfied with the bride. She didn't like the Queen Mother Huayang very much, nor did she like the people of Chu. However, she had no choice but to do so. The bride was personally selected by King Qin, and she, as a mother, did not want to disobey King Qin. As Zheng wanted, he naturally agreed.

However, in order to promote this marriage that Zhao Ji was not satisfied with, Zhao Ji took the initiative to move out of Xianyang Palace and moved into Ganquan Palace.

You know, going from Xianyang Palace to Ganquan Palace is not just a simple move. Why was Zhao Ji able to become the most powerful woman in Qin? One of the important reasons is that she lives in Xianyang Palace and can control the Xianyang Palace and the power center of the Qin State.

Zhao Ji moved out of Xianyang Palace, and to a certain extent, she gave up the control of the Xianyang Palace court.

But after Zhao Ji paid the price, she felt that her son was drifting away from her. As time went by, Zhao Ji had slowly figured out why her son chose to marry the princess of Chu that she didn't like. , especially after the engagement was made, those of the Chu family, such as Lord Changping and Lord Changwen, seemed to show signs of becoming more active.

Yang Ming did not know the joys and sorrows of Xianyang Palace, but at this time he was working the night shift in Ganquan Palace.

Qilin Pavilion, the place where Yang Ming worked for the first time in Ganquan Palace, has almost become Yang Ming's private territory at this time.

Yang Ming stayed on the top floor, with the windows on all sides open. A banquet was spread out by the window, a small table, and a set of tea sets. The two of them formed a wonderful picture.

It is too simple for Yang Ming, the captain of Ganquan Palace, to pretend to be a public servant for personal gain.

"Don't drink too much tea at night, otherwise you won't be able to sleep, and you'll have two big dark circles under your eyes the next day." Yang Ming grabbed the tea cup in front of Jing Salamander and drank it all in one gulp.

"Aren't you worried about yourself then?" Jing Salamander had obviously long ago gotten used to Yang Ming's behavior at this time, and instead asked in a serious tone.

Jing salamander obviously has his own experience in how to cooperate with Yang Ming's pranks.

In the eyes of others, Jing salamander has a cold personality, is not good at words, and is a woman who is difficult to get in touch with. But in Yang Ming's view, it is completely different. Only Yang Ming can experience the fun of Jing Salaman.

Jing Salamander is not good at words. Many times, Yang Ming will say ten sentences before Jing Salamander will reply to the last sentence. But often, just this sentence can make Yang Ming feel happy.

The simplicity of Jing Salamander's character and the changeability of Yang Ming's thoughts can, to a certain extent, constitute a rare harmonious picture between men and women.

"Of course I'm not worried. I'm about to achieve great success. Not to mention not sleeping all night, even if I don't sleep for ten days, it won't have any impact." Yang Ming said with a smile.

"Nonsense, you obviously haven't succeeded yet." Jingyu said with a smile in her eyes. This was one of her newly discovered pleasures, and occasionally she could give Yang Ming a little blow.

"It's almost, almost." Yang Ming said nonchalantly.

"If I remember correctly, you said the same thing two months ago." At this time, Jingyu was not understanding at all, and all he had was cruelly revealing Yang Ming's background.

"I am now able to achieve 'harmony' and can perform the three martial arts at the same time. I am very close to success." Yang Ming said.

"Really? But I remember the last time we competed, when we used Cloud Trace Phantom to attack and Frost Scar to attack, we were unlucky, causing Xu Yun Jin and Tian Shuang Jin to conflict with each other. I haven't yet If you do it, you will fall down." Jing Salamander chuckled, but she would never forget Yang Ming's embarrassment in her life.

"Jing Salamander, you are getting worse and worse." Yang Ming shook his head and laughed, but there was no trace of anger in his expression, just because the woman in front of him was Jing Salamander.

"Is there any?" Jing Salamander said with her cold and extremely deceptive expression.

"But there are also good things out of bad things." Yang Ming held Jing Salamander's little hand and played with the soft and slightly cool palm.

"Don't be anxious about training. We can take our time. Now you have been able to perfectly combine Shenfeng Jin and Xuyun Jin. You are only one step away from success. We still have a lot of time in the future and we will definitely succeed. Yes." Jing Salamander put his other hand on the back of Yang Ming's hand that was playing with his palm, and his words were full of concern.

"Time is very important. Next year, I hope to take you away from here so that you can truly live in the sun, unlike now." Yang Ming said thoughtfully.

"It's actually very good now, much better than before." Jing Salamander consoled him.

"It's a pity that it's not good enough. Well, it's been a long night and I've started practicing. I hope I can make a breakthrough this time." Yang Ming picked up the teacup and drank the tea in one gulp. He cheered up again and looked at the distant lights dotted in the vast night. , and the mood became more joyful.

"Well, I'll accompany you." Jing Salamander responded, his eyes full of encouragement.

The next time is the boring and exciting training session.

On the top floor of Qilin Pavilion, there is a beauty standing leaning on the railing, and there is a vague wind blowing inside and outside.

Qin Wangzheng's wedding lasted for three days before it officially ended. When Yang Ming saw Zhao Ji again, the Empress Dowager Zhao, who had just completed her 'promotion' not long ago, had a tired look on her face.

Recalling the wedding and everything after the wedding, Zhao Ji was not in a good mood. This is a stage that most women have to go through. The Princess of Chu, who is Zhao Ji’s current daughter-in-law, in Zhao Ji’s opinion, But no matter how you look at it, it's not that pleasing to the eye.

Unfortunately, looking at Yang Ming who happily bid farewell to Frightened Salamander at dusk and rode away, the feeling of abandonment due to the wedding deepened in Zhao Ji's heart.

Looking back at Nuo Da's Ganquan Palace, Zhao Ji sadly discovered that she didn't even have anyone to talk to.

Zhao Ji, who looked languid, returned to the palace, feeling dull for a moment. Looking at her palace, the curtains made of red silk and satin were floating around, and the valuable furnishings made the entire palace look... It has a luxurious atmosphere, but even such a palace makes it feel empty.

Then she turned over the bamboo slips on the desk. Zhao Ji, who used to hate looking at these things, actually used these bamboo slips to kill boring time.

"Queen Mother Xuan?" Zhao Ji's eyes narrowed subconsciously as she opened the bamboo slip. The bamboo slip in her hand turned out to be a...

Zhao Ji looked at the words on the bamboo slips, and the image of a woman appeared in front of her. What was this?

Of course Zhao Ji doesn't understand something called 'diary', but in this era, although there is no such name, there are similar things.

In the words in front of Zhao Ji, the image of a woman gradually emerged. Different from the Queen Mother Xuan recorded by Qin historians, the owner of this bamboo slip was the Queen Mother Xuan herself, or a woman.

"On Ziwu day, I saw King Yiqu coming to court..."

"This?" Zhao Ji looked at the bamboo slips in her hands, a solemn expression gradually emerged in her expression, and then a feeling of fright. She was curious, she was confused, there was fear, but there seemed to be a vague sense of fear. An expectation.

A world that makes Zhao Ji tremble and is full of temptation is unfolding towards her Xu Xun. When Zhao Ji opens that world, what will be released? The fire that consumed her? Or is it an opportunity to bring her a new life?

In the Meng family mansion in Xianyang City, Meng Tian seemed to have grown up a lot after experiencing a war. Although the former Meng Tian had a tough character and a prudent manner, he was more of an imitation of his grandfather Meng Ao. Although he could already imitate seven, seven, eight, eight, He also turned that imitation into something that truly belongs to him, but it still has a somewhat frivolous feeling.

But the Mengtian in front of him was different. A war seemed to have made him grow a lot, making him transform from a boy to an adult.
