For teacher, for father

Ever since Lu Buwei did it on purpose, and later when the Queen Mother of Huayang showed up to interfere with Zheng Shuang's incident, Ji Hao found that the whole thing was gradually developing in a weird direction.

If it is seen by outsiders, this is just an ordinary plot of a common concubine who wants to be in power, so she uses all means to seduce the emperor. Yet another complicated explanation.

……

When King Qin Xiaowen was still the crown prince, he was titled An Guojun. At that time, Huayang was already recognized as the favorite concubine of the prince, not one of them.In the troubled times of the Warring States Period, if a thin woman can still guarantee her status without an heir, it is very difficult.

Mrs. Hua Yang not only achieved this, but also resolved the political troubles for An Guojun in a timely manner, except for the careful cultivation of the two people's emotional life, participated in politics appropriately, and intelligently and generously put forward her own views on some trivial matters .Secretly promoted his cousin and brother to the top.Huayang's actions gave her double protection in An Guojun's heart, making this man need her emotionally and hope to get her own opinion on state affairs.

However, no matter how many advantages there are, they can't overcome the fear of not having children-this is the biggest threat of a harem woman.

So even the proud and intelligent Mrs. Huayang, when Lu Buwei found her for a stranger, moved out, "You are young and beautiful and you are loved by An Guojun everywhere, but when you are old and fading after many years, who should you rely on?" When this warning bell was like lobbying, he had to accept another person as his heir under the suspicion and fear.

Lu Buwei woke her up. A woman is a woman after all. The person she relies on now is An Guojun, and the person she relies on in the future will be Zichu, and in the future...who is it?

Huayang also thought about putting Ying Zheng as her next target and treating him well in every possible way, but she never raised this young man, let alone lived under the same roof.

Compared with the gentle and weak Zhuangxiang Prince Chu, Yingzheng ascended the throne at the age of 13 and became the emperor of Qin at a young age.

Above the court, his prince and grandson dared to fight against Lu Buwei, who covered the sky with his hands. In the harem, he was only filial to her and Queen Mother Zhao.

All Huayang saw what Ying Zheng did, and she could foresee that Ying Zheng would definitely be the embryo of a good emperor in the future.The only shortcoming is... Yingzheng only respects her by her status and seniority. This child has always been indifferent and ruthless. If one day she violates Yingzheng's bottom line and the other party has real power, she will definitely not tolerate her.

……

Yingzheng is dedicated to Qin, and his focus every day is either on the memorial with the officials or discussing the construction of the aqueduct with Ji Hao. He works hard in military and state affairs, without the slightest bit of negligence... But when it comes to feelings, the young man has never Realize how suspicious the human heart can be at times.

In the eyes of the Empress Dowager Huayang, Ying Zheng's blunt and formulaic respect for her is a symbol of lack of emotion.

However, for this young emperor, he has never had real affection since he was a child, and he is even more careful not to neglect his relatives. Yingzheng will not express his emotions, let alone talk about love at any time. The only expression is his compromise and silence to his grandmother's interference in his life-this is the greatest respect bestowed by the emperor, but the Queen Mother Huayang doesn't think so.

So, before Ji Hao and Ying Zheng were aware of it, Lu Buwei, who was the best at manipulating people's hearts, had noticed the anxiety and suspicion of the Queen Mother Huayang early on.

The man began to complain to the old man intentionally or unintentionally about the cruelty and inhumanity of the emperor, and he competed with him everywhere, and he was so domineering at a young age.

Lu Buwei knew this woman well. He knew where the other party's weaknesses were since he was King Zhuang Xiang, so he prescribed the right medicine. Of course, he succeeded in separating Ying Zheng from the old lady, the queen mother.

When she was young, Hua Yang still had beauty to protect her body, but now she is a beauty, Hua Yang is old and fading, and her biggest fear is who should she depend on to live.As she gets old, she becomes suspicious at the same time. As long as she talks about Ying Zheng's bad behavior by her side from time to time, it will naturally cause a gap between the two of them.

Therefore, the Empress Dowager Huayang began to fear, deep fear—she was afraid that one day when Lu Buwei was no longer the thorn in Ying Zheng's side, the emperor's stern eyes would be on her who had witnessed Ying Zheng's dark childhood.

This kind of fear prompted the old queen to keep urging the emperor to accept the concubine. She needed another person she could rely on, and that was the next most honorable prince of Daqin——

She has to personally cultivate the crown prince from a young age, laying a solid foundation for her relationship, so that... she won't be helpless after many years.

……

Ji Hao hid behind the curtain and carefully witnessed the whole process.Of course, I also understand that Lu Buwei has used Huayang's distrust and fear of Yingzheng to be arrogant to the point where he is today.

Lu Buwei is good at manipulating people's hearts, and he knew the art of attacking people's hearts when he was a businessman.Even in war, spies are the prime minister's favorite trick.

The young man felt distressed for his own foolish boy, and also felt sad for the old queen—what the Queen Mother of Huayang did, regardless of right and wrong, pressing her prince and grandson everywhere...is the ultimate reason for losing the emperor's heart.

There is no more basic trust between two people, how can they work together to stand on the same front?Hua Yang's nature is not bad, but because of her suspicious character, she denied the emperor's tolerance for her.

Although he was not standing in front of the screen, Ji Hao could roughly guess the expressions on Ying Zheng's and Hua Yang's faces at this time, one was resigned and the other was domineering.

One night's farce will only make the young emperor realize how little real power he has now, and how decisive he will be in revenge against these people in the future. This is caused by Lu Buwei alone, a tragedy for the emperor's family.

……

Ji Hao didn't hide any more, and even wanted to scare them to death with his appearance. It's best to scare Lu Buwei and the Queen Mother Huayang who bullied his students for a few days so that there will be no more trouble.

Even compared to Zhao Ji who concentrated on having an affair with Lai Ai and didn't care about state affairs, Ji Hao started to dislike this old queen mother who interfered in the emperor's private affairs even more.

Thinking so secretly, Lu Buwei had already walked in front of him—he lifted up the silk embroidery curtain in front of him with a clatter, a smug smile remained on his face, and the years had left traces on the man's face, Lu Buwei, who is in his 40s this year, has already undergone some late changes in his face.

The young man adjusted his expression, put on a very obvious look of displeasure, raised his head and stared at the trembling prime minister in front of him, and greeted him with a horror level of five stars without any sincerity: "Long time no see , you are getting more and more annoying, Prime Minister Lu."

"—!!"

People in ancient times were very afraid of ghosts and gods. If it was ghosts, they were 12 points afraid.But if it is a god, it must be given all the respect and worship.

This is also the reason why such a magic stick career as a national teacher can be mixed up to the second rank in the imperial court, and is respected by all officials.No one dared to blackmail the national teacher, otherwise he would not be able to sleep peacefully in the middle of the night.

That's why Ying Zheng hoped to disclose Ji Hao's identity after Xu Fu's canonization ceremony. As long as he leads in a good direction, the appearance of his husband will arouse respect and fear instead.

Ji Hao also understood these things, so when Lu Buwei opened the curtain, the young man deliberately narrowed his beautiful peach eyes, his lips were slightly pursed, wrapped in a white robe, his face was sickly pale, and he leaned lazily on the bed On the red lacquered pillar beside him, pretending to be resentful, he looked at the dumbfounded Lu Buwei.

……

Lu Buwei opened his lips and remained silent.

The smile that had just ridiculed Ying Zheng had long since disappeared, and what was left was only endless stiffness and unbearable fear—even this powerful prime minister had no choice but to fear and submit to ghosts and gods.

As long as it is human, he is not afraid, but this is not human... how to fight?

In this short second, Lu Buwei's head was spinning rapidly, his whole body was stiff and he did not dare to move, and even breathing became difficult and laborious.

He thought of countless possibilities of seeing Ji Hao, among which the one he believed the most... was because he was making things difficult for Ying Zheng, this gentleman who was famous for protecting his weaknesses turned into a ghost and would not let him go!

"Ji...Hao!"

The man felt his teeth shaking and his whole body was icy cold, at least seeing Ji Hao under such a scene did not surprise him at all!

"You bully my housekeeper..." The young man nodded, taking advantage of the chaos in the room before he found him, he deliberately approached Lu Xiang, who was obviously frightened, with a gloomy look, his lips parted slightly, and he said with a smirk He said something that Lu Buwei didn't want to hear the most: "I won't let you go even if you're a ghost... (teeth grinding)"

"..."

The young man bent his lips, loosened his long black hair casually, squinted his eyes and smiled, then gently stretched out a finger...to poke Lu Buwei's chest——

The famous Lu Cheng fell down in response, and sat down on the cold ground in embarrassment, his head covered in cold sweat, and he silently stared at the young man in front of him with his lips parted.Then in exchange for a series of merciless ridicules from Ji Hao.

However, except for Lu Buwei and Ying Zheng, no one in this palace has seen Ji Hao with their own eyes.So for a while, everyone didn't realize the seriousness of the matter. Instead, they were curious about Prime Minister Lu's excessive reaction, and at the same time, they finally focused all their eyes on the smiling young man in white.

Among them, Ying Zheng knew the truth a long time ago, seeing his husband making fun of Lu Buwei in this way, he treated him coldly, without saying a word to relieve the siege, and there was a hint of relief in his tolerance.

So in the huge Zhengyang Palace, only Lu Buwei was terrified, staring at Ji Hao speechlessly.

What exactly is going on?Is this person Ji Hao? Could it be a ghost...

One question after another was stuck in his throat, the man frowned fiercely, even the palms of his hands were sweating, he gritted his teeth and choked out a sentence: "Since that's the case, what do you... want to do to me?"

Ji Hao smiled, did the same thing that scared his cousin before, and deliberately showed his white teeth and said, "I ate you!"

"..."

Lu Buwei was startled, moved his lips and finally said nothing.Then, I don't know if it's because of too much pressure from work or too much pressure from a scheming person, or because Ji Hao succeeded in scaring his little cousin by scaring him, so without warning, he leaned back and passed out!

"Lu, Prime Minister Lu!—" The palace guards watching the show finally couldn't stand it anymore. Under the signal of the Queen Mother Huayang, a palace woman hurried up to help Lu Buwei up, after confirming that the other party was really dizzy After that, the whole room became chaotic again.

"What's the mess? The widow is still here! Can't you see it?!"

Ying Zheng's tone was cold and his complexion was not good. One incident about Zheng Shuang was enough to make him irritable.The emperor waved his hand and slashed his sword on the hard floor. The sharp sound successfully silenced the whole room.

"Take Lu Xiang to the imperial doctor for treatment. If it is serious, you will temporarily stay in the palace tonight." The young man presided over the overall situation unhurriedly. The queen mother gave a respectful salute. It is too late now, and it is not suitable to deal with the identity of her husband: "Grandmother, if you trust Zheng'er, the superior Zheng'er will give you a reasonable explanation tomorrow morning—— People are not suspicious people, they are Zheng'er's enlightenment teacher. It's getting late today, so grandma should go to bed earlier."

"...So, it's all up to Zheng'er to decide."

The old man frowned and glanced at the relaxed Ji Hao. After all, he still couldn't figure out the ins and outs of the matter, and he didn't have the slightest impression of the young man, so he nodded helplessly.

Before leaving, the Empress Dowager Huayang did not forget to give a careful account of Zheng Shuang's affairs. It was not until Ying Zheng had no choice but to compromise that she slowly left the brightly lit Zhengyang with the support of several maids. temple.

Fortunately, apart from Lu Buwei, no one else realized how terrible Ji Hao's appearance was, so the young man prevaricated a few words, temporarily arranged a place for Ji Hao in a side hall, and dismissed all the onlookers. Among the busy palace people, Zheng Shuang and Ji Hao were the only ones left.

……

It was quiet all around, the girl knelt respectfully on the cold ground, wearing a coat, and let Ying Zheng look at her expressionlessly.

Ji Hao was not involved in the affairs of these two people. Regarding Zheng Shuang's performance just now, he could almost guess that it was because of Lu Buwei. Zheng Shuang's father, Zheng Qi, was far inferior to Lu Xiang in terms of official position and methods , if the girl in front of her still has a trace of filial piety in her heart, she will obediently obey Lu Buwei's mercy.

Step by step, she expected to become the woman in Yingzheng's harem, but she had to be hated by the emperor... Lu Buwei guessed the ending, but the process was wrong.

"What else do you want to say?" The young emperor put away his long sword. After calming down, although he didn't like the girl in front of him, he also understood that the biggest behind-the-scenes person was Lu Buwei, whether it was Zheng Shuang or Zheng Qi. , but it's just one of his pawns.

"If the widow can settle your father, will you still insist on staying in the widow's harem?"

"Your Majesty, have you ever thought about it? Today, the daughters of the people are full of lies, and the crime is dead, but they have made everyone believe that Zheng Shuang has an affair with the King... Even if you understand the righteousness and protect my father, Lu Lu Prime Minister will not let Zheng Shuang go in vain."

After today's farce, Zheng Shuang was heartbroken.She can be used by the Queen Mother and Prime Minister Lu. After entering this deep palace, she has no way out.

The longing for a beautiful love had already been shattered when she saw the young emperor holding a long sword against her neck.From now on, her husband will be the king who wants to kill her with a single sword...

There was a sneer on the girl's delicate face. Compared with the cunning Lu Buwei and the Huayang Queen Mother, Zheng Shuang found that she was not even afraid of the violent monarch in front of her.

"Zheng Shuang is willing to spend his life under the red wall of the harem, and accompany the king around."

Today's Zheng Shuang is only living for her father who is an official in the court. The emperor's cold harem is a good thing for her. Compared with her, the two beauties who come from aristocratic backgrounds have more weight in Ying Zheng's heart But it's all about the same.She didn't leave anything behind.

"Zheng Shuang doesn't have anything long in her body. The only thing that counts as capital is the skin bestowed by her parents. If the king doesn't like it, just give him a cold palace." An Ran was silent, and suddenly bent her lips slightly, revealing a magnificent and wooden smile: "But for the sake of father, Zheng Shuang will not give up any chance to get close to the king. Put it on Zheng Shuang's body..."

"..."

Ying Zheng frowned, but did not answer.Instead, he waved his hand very upset, signaling the palace servants outside the door to come in and take away the girl kneeling on the ground.

When several maids wanted to help Zheng Shuang to stand up, Zheng Shuang shook his head and wanted to stand up with his own strength, but his legs were numb and weak due to kneeling for too long, so the moment he stood up forcefully, he staggered. Fell at the emperor's legs.

Ji Hao blinked his eyes, witnessed the whole process of the girl's fall, and parted his lips but said nothing after all—he had watched many costume dramas with his mother and cousin, but this live version is based on small details. This is really the first time I have witnessed the pity of the emperor.

The young man pinched his somewhat stiff cheeks, took a deep breath of the sandalwood-stained air, and turned his back.

He didn't look at it, and he didn't say anything. It's not easy for a little girl to live in the palace. Someone will make things difficult for her, and now it's not his turn to go and add insult to injury...

Ji Hao comforted himself so much and covered his eyes, but he still couldn't lie to his heart. Yes, he didn't want to see his students carefully helping Zheng Shuang up like those kings in costume dramas, and then the two The scene where people look at each other complicatedly - there are TV and novels where the emperor falls in love with the female spy!

If this is the case, he will not only be angry, but also very angry, and will hate iron for being weak, but... in what capacity is he angry?Why are you angry?

He is a teacher, not Ying Zheng's wife...
