Yunyang Xiaoyingzheng [Da Qin]

For breakfast the next day, Ah Zheng had it with Yiren and Zhao Ji.

When eating breakfast, Yiren was quite silent.On the one hand, he knew that Chu Ji deserved the punishment of breaking her mouth, but on the other hand, he was shocked by the cruelty of the child in front of him.He is only eight years old now, how could he order the servants in the palace to execute his concubine so proficiently?

Zhao Ji knocked on two chicken eggs, carefully peeled off the shells of the eggs with her slender hands, put one into Ah Zheng's bowl and the other into another man's bowl, and said softly, "My dear, now Zheng'er has passed away." He is more than eight years old, but he only knows some characters roughly. Should we hire a good teacher for Zheng'er and teach him well? I am ashamed to say that I have not taught Zheng'er well in Zhao State these years. If Zheng'er offends his beloved Upset, it's all my fault, if you want to blame my lover, blame me."

"Zhu Er, how can I blame you for this? It's obviously Gu's fault, if it wasn't Gu's fault back then..." Seeing Zhao Ji's sad face, the stranger felt a severe pain in his heart and liver. He grabbed Zhao Ji's white hand, feeling guilty for a while. : "As for hiring a good teacher for Zheng'er, I will discuss it with Father Wang first, and ask Father Wang if he has any good candidates to recommend, and I will reply to you in a few days."

Zhao Ji smiled softly at him and said hello.

After breakfast, Yiren left Liuying Palace, took a palace car to Zhangtai Palace, and studied government affairs with King Qin.Only Zhao Ji and Ah Zheng were left in the palace.

Zhao Ji smiled and said to Ah Zheng: "Is Zheng'er busy today? If there is nothing else, then accompany A Niang to see someone."

Ah Zheng nodded and said, "I have nothing to do today, Auntie, who are we going to see?"

Zhao Ji laughed, "Your eldest mother."

Ah Zheng frowned: "Why are we going to see Queen Huayang?"

Zhao Ji took Ah Zheng's little hand: "We are not going to see her, but Mrs. Xia, your father's biological mother."

"Mrs. Xia?"

This father's eldest mother, Mrs. Xia, whom Ah Zheng met in a remote palace, looked more like an elderly lady than the glamorous Queen Huayang at the banquet before. His head is full of white hair, and the corners of his eyes are full of wrinkles when he smiles, making people feel kind when he looks at him.

Xia Ji liked Ah Zheng very much, and when she saw him coming, she asked the maid to fetch nuts and honey for him to eat.

Ah Zheng got up and saluted, thanked him, sat aside and ate like a little squirrel, while listening to Zhao Ji and Xia Ji talking.

Zhao Ji smiled bitterly and said, "I've been married to my beloved for many years, and this is the first time I've come to see you. It's really rude."

Xia Ji patted the back of her hand to comfort her: "My son Yiren left me when he was a teenager, and was sent to Zhao Guo as a hostage by the former king. Thanks to you who can accompany him by his side, he has a human appearance." , I want to thank you. Now that he has become the Prince of Qin, you and your husband can live a peaceful life when you are reunited."

Zhao Ji lowered her eyebrows to prevent others from seeing the expression on her face, and replied, "You are right."

Xia Ji sighed: "Why didn't the stranger come with your mother and son?"

Zhao Ji explained: "...My beloved learned from the king to deal with government affairs after eating breakfast. He specially ordered me to bring a gift to come to see you."

Xia Ji smiled kindly. She stretched out her hand to peel a pine nut for Ah Zheng beside her, and sighed, "Although you are husband and wife, you don't have to defend him like this. He has come to see him since he came back to Qin as a stranger." How many times have I? He has changed his name to Zi Chu, his son of the Queen of Qin has nothing to do with my unfavored Mrs. Xia."

Zhao Ji opened her mouth, but was speechless.

Xia Ji continued: "The Xia family was born as a doctor. I was originally a little medical girl in the Qin Palace. Who would have thought that I would be favored by An Guojun and become his concubine? I gave birth to a stranger. My son, my mother's family can't provide him with support like other families. He can only use the opportunity of becoming the proton of Zhao State to win the attention of the former king and the current king. Now he has finally become the prince. My identity Low, he doesn't want to come to see me, he hates me in his heart, I know it..."

A small hand tugged at Xia Ji's sleeve, and Ah Zheng handed a small plate of peeled pine nuts to Xia Ji: "Mother, eat the pine nuts."

"Okay, Mommy, eat." Xia Ji reached out to take the small plate, but found that Ah Zheng's hand was red and swollen with scars, "What's wrong? Why are your hands so red and hot?"

Zhao Ji explained from the side: "This child had a hard time in Zhao country before, and he got sores in the winter. He scratched the sores because of itching, and the sores were broken. The scabs have just grown."

Xia Ji felt distressed when she touched Ah Zheng's rough little hands, and ordered the maid beside her to get sesame oil, and personally applied it on Ah Zheng: "Children's hands are the most delicate, and they should be taken care of. After a few days, the sesame oil will bloom." Well, I'll ask the palace servants to pick some back, smash it up and apply it on my hands, and next winter there won't be any more sores."

It was the first time that Ah Zheng saw someone who was so kind to him other than Ah Ju and A Niang, and his ears couldn't help turning red: "Thank you, Ma'am, Zheng'er."

Xia Ji ordered someone to take some spices and put them in a wooden box and handed them to the maid beside Zhao Ji, and explained to Zhao Ji: "There are many mountains and rivers around Xianyang. It's still winter and I don't think so. Wait a few days. In the spring, all the mosquitoes will come out. At that time, you can light this spice, and you can sleep peacefully at night."

Zhao Ji pulled Ah Zheng to stand up and thanked him.

Seeing that Ah Zheng likes to eat these pine nuts from the mountain, Xia Ji asked for the rest to be given to Ah Zheng, and then she said to Zhao Ji's mother and son: "Okay, I'm a little tired, you should go back sooner. If you stay with me for too long, the queen will be angry. You just offended her, so you should avoid her."

Zhao Ji led Ah Zheng to thank Xia Ji again, and then left.

Sitting in the car back to Liuying Palace, Ah Zheng looked at the gifts Xia Ji gave them in return, and said distressedly to Zhao Ji: "The things that the aunt gave us are more than what we gave to the aunt. Isn't that good."

Zhao Ji smiled and said comfortingly: "Zheng'er, your mother loves you so much that she gave you these things. You must be filial to your mother in the future, you know?"

Ah Zheng nodded: "Well, the eldest mother is a good person, I like her."

Zhao Ji also felt that Xia Ji was really a very good elder, and she didn't know how such a good person like her would give birth to such an insignificant son. It should be the problem of Qin Guozhong.

Zhao Ji took Ah Zheng back to Liuying Palace for lunch, but the stranger stayed with King Qin and did not come back.

After the meal, Zhao Ji took the maid to sort out the things brought into the Qin Palace, and drove Ah Zheng back to the room.

After a while, Queen Huayang ordered someone to bring some bright silks and gold ornaments inlaid with jewels to Zhao Ji, saying it was an apology to Zhao Ji.Zhao Ji ordered someone to accept them, and then hid them deeply in a big wooden box.

Ah Zheng ran out to watch the fun when he was bored, he was quite puzzled when he saw Zhao Ji put the fabric jewelry into the wooden box: "Mother, after the spring, wouldn't it be good for someone to cut these silk materials and make clothes for you? Why hide it? Is there something wrong with the cloth jewelry?"

Zhao Ji shook her head and explained: "There is nothing wrong with the material of the clothes, and the jewelry is exquisitely made."

"Then why don't you use it?"

Zhao Ji sighed: "Zheng'er, it's still the period of filial piety for the old kings. In order to ensure the fighting power of the people of the country, the previous kings ordered that during the filial period, you don't have to eat rough rice every day, and don't touch meat, but you still prohibit alcohol, music, and food." Singing and dancing, so there was no singing and dancing performance at yesterday's banquet. If I really cut clothes out of these pink and blue fabrics and brought gorgeous jewelry, I'm afraid the current Chu Ji will be my future end."

Ah Zheng suddenly realized.He really didn't consider the issue of the late king's filial piety. After all, he lived in Zhao country for many years and had no relationship with his father, let alone his great-grandfather, King Qin Zhaoxiang, whom he had never met from birth to death.

Ah Zheng frowned: "So Queen Huayang really has bad intentions for A Niang."

Zhao Ji said: "Chu Ji was divided by the punishment of breaching the mouth, which is basically abolished. How can Queen Huayang have goodwill towards us?"

She squatted down and looked at Ah Zheng: "Zheng'er, there are traps and abysses everywhere in the Qin Palace. Aniang, I don't know if I can protect you, you have to be careful."

Ah Zheng nodded: "Don't worry, Madam."

On the other side, Zhangtai Palace.

The other person mentioned to King Qin that he wanted to hire a teacher for Xiao Ahzheng.

Qin Wang was deeply impressed by the daring grandson yesterday. He had no objection to the stranger asking for a teacher for his grandson, and said directly: "If you have someone in mind, go and invite him. If you can't invite him, go in the name of a widow." please."

The other person answered yes, and was thinking about what kind of talents he would invite to teach Ah Zheng, when he heard King Qin continue: "Chu Ji, she will give birth to a child for you after all, if you are free, go Look at her, don't be cold-hearted. You are the heir of the widow, and your wife Zhao Ji is the future Princess Qin, and she should also learn to take care of everything in the palace. The widow has already ordered the queen to hand over some of the palace affairs in her hands. To Zhao Ji, let Zhao Ji study hard after you go back."

The other person smiled wryly in his heart, and said yes on his face.I don't know what the king is thinking, let the queen give Zhu Er the power in the palace, how can the queen be willing?But the meaning in Wang Shang's words also calmed Yiren's heart a little.The king is willing to hand over the palace affairs to Zhu Er, which proves that his position as the prince is still stable, and he doesn't need to worry about the gains and losses for the attitude of Queen Huayang for the time being.

After Yiren left Zhangtai Palace, he went to Huayang Palace where Mrs. Huayang was.Huayang Palace is a group of palaces specially built by King Qin for Queen Huayang. The palace is named after Queen Huayang's title, which shows the status of Queen Huayang in King Qin's heart.

Yiren went to meet Queen Huayang first, and then entered the palace where Concubine Chu lived.

The lights in the palace flickered, and when a stranger entered the palace, he saw a woman looking at a bronze mirror with her back facing him, and there were crying sounds from time to time.

The stranger thought of Chu Ji's bright face, and heard the sad cry, and couldn't help feeling pity in his heart, and said warmly: "Chu Ji, I'm alone to see you."

Chu Ji turned around slowly, and a face with no lips but white teeth appeared in the eyes of the stranger.

The Yiren was taken aback, and couldn't help shouting: "Ghost——"

The author has something to say:

This chapter continues the little red envelope.

1. "In order to ensure the combat effectiveness of the people of the country, the previous generations of kings ordered that during the filial piety period, it is not necessary to eat coarse rice and meat every day," this paragraph is the author's nonsense, don't take it seriously.

2. The twist in the article is nonsense. It was modified according to a folk prescription for treating chilblains: in autumn, use sesame flowers to rub the frostbitten areas on the hands (the author often had chilblains when he was a child, and his mother stopped growing chilblains after making sesame flowers. But I can't tell whether it is the effect of sesame flowers or the work of keeping warm is done well) (because this folk remedy is for external use and has no danger, I will tell you about it. Don't try the folk remedies that are inexplicably taken orally or directly contact the wound. )
