Great Qin Shi Empress
Chapter 30 033~036
==·Naming·==
When Lin Qian woke up, it was already the next day.
As soon as she opened her eyes, she met Lin Wu's anxious face. She froze for a moment, and was about to speak, but found that her throat was so dry that she couldn't make a sound, as if stuck with glue. :"water……"
Lin Wu looked surprised: "Si Niang is thirsty? I'll pour water for you right away..."
She quickly went around the screen to pour a glass of water, and at the same time, she did not forget to invite the imperial doctor waiting outside.
After Lin Qian drank the water, the imperial doctor stepped forward to diagnose her pulse.
After a while, the imperial doctor breathed a sigh of relief: "Madam has been recuperating well these days, and this shock did not affect you too much. After waking up and resting for a day or two, you will be fine."
Lin Qian hurriedly thanked: "Thanks to the prescription prescribed by the imperial doctor."
After a few words of refusal, the imperial doctor took his leave and left.
Lin Wu personally sent the imperial doctor out, and only after he came back did he tell Lin Qian what happened yesterday: "Si Niang, after you passed out last night, General Meng Er was so frightened that he hurriedly let us get on the carriage and returned home quickly." In the palace. Fortunately, the imperial doctor said after taking the pulse that you were just overly frightened, otherwise General Meng Er might be beaten up by General Meng."
Lin Qian was a little embarrassed: "I didn't expect that someone would assassinate me, an unknown person, and General Meng Er was directly in front of me..." Killing.
face to face!
She remembered that when Zhao Wu died, his eyes were wide open and he kept staring at her.She didn't have a nightmare last night, and she felt that it was because she had experienced it once, and her nerves were strengthened.
It is estimated that she will get used to it a few more times, right?
Lin Qian let out a breath, and pulled Lin Wu to sit on the couch: "I remember you hugged me and fell to the ground yesterday, how was it? Have you had the imperial doctor see it? Is it serious? Did the imperial doctor prescribe you any medicine?" ?”
While talking, she still felt uneasy and wanted to take a look at Lin Wu's clothes.
Lin Wu grabbed her hand with a smile: "Don't worry, Si Niang, I'm fine. After returning to the palace yesterday, the imperial doctor prescribed medicine for you, and saw the scratches on my neck, so he checked my pulse. The imperial doctor Having said that, it’s just some skin trauma, after applying the medicine, don’t touch the water and don’t bask in the sun, or it will heal within two days.”
As she spoke, she showed Lin Qian the wound on her neck, "Look, the medicine has been applied."
Lin Qian felt relieved, and then asked: "Then Zhao Wu..."
She wanted to say that it sounded familiar, but unexpectedly, Lin Wu exploded when she heard Zhao Wu's name: "Zhao Wu, that goddamn bastard, has been so bold and heartless since he was a child, he dared to sell you to a kidnapper. It's even more vicious when it grows up, and it actually wants to kill you! How can there be such a vicious thing in this world? It's simply not worthy of being human!"
When Lin Wu said this, Lin Qian remembered Zhao Wu's identity——
The second brother of the original owner!
I can't blame her for not remembering Zhao Wu's identity for the first time: Lin Qian inherited almost all the original owner's memories after transmigrating, except for her three elder brothers.Under such circumstances, even if Lin Wu knew that the original owner had three older brothers, and knew their names, it would be difficult for Lin Qian to act as a substitute; secondly...she had never seen the three brothers since she transmigrated.
Uh, I think I've seen it before...
Lin Qian finally remembered that Zhao Gao, who was killed before, should be regarded as... his elder brother?
She was a little speechless. She thought that what she was wearing was just cannon fodder, but she didn't expect that she was not only the biological mother of the tyrant Hu Hai, but also the younger sister of the treacherous minister Zhao Gao?
Lin Qian looked at Lin Wu: "Is it because of Zhao Gao that Zhao Wu assassinated me?"
Lin Wu paused, hesitated for a moment and then nodded.
"Siniang, don't think about it, Zhao Wu's brain is abnormal!" Lin Wuyue thought more and more angrily, "Zhao Gao was killed because he slandered the Empress Dowager Huayang, what does it have to do with you? He wants revenge Why did I come to you? It’s just that the persimmon wanted to be picky and thought you were easy to bully!”
In Lin Wu's heart, even if Zhao Wu wanted revenge, he should go to His Majesty, why should he go to Si Niang?
It's a pity that she dared not say such words out of her mouth.
Lin Qian had some guesses: "If Zhao Wu and Zhao Gao have a good relationship, Zhao Gao should tell Zhao Wu about his plan. Although I don't know what Zhao Gao did, he mentioned the Queen Mother Huayang and Zhao Gao. I, it is likely that the Empress Dowager Huayang wanted to use Zhao Gao to target me, but she did not expect Zhao Gao to turn against the water, and instead used her as a stepping stone, wanting to inform His Majesty and surrender."
Lin Wu's eyes widened: "Is Zhao Gao so courageous?!"
That's the Empress Dowager Huayang!
Lin Qian was not surprised, after all, Zhao Gao in history was extraordinarily daring.
She twitched the corner of her mouth: "But Zhao Gao didn't expect that His Majesty's eyes were as bright as a torch, and he could see the truth of the whole thing at a glance, so he killed him."
"Your Majesty is wise!"
Lin Wu shouted, and said again: "But even if this is the case, what does it have to do with you?"
If you want revenge, find the Empress Dowager Huayang!
Lin Qian didn't understand either.
……
"Because the second brother thinks that all these things happened because of your ungratefulness, Si Niang, and you never recommended your eldest brother to your majesty after being appointed as a young envoy by your majesty. If you had recommended your eldest brother early in the morning, your eldest brother would not take the risk and go to Huayang The empress dowager contacted, and then let His Majesty see the clue and lost his life."
Zhao Cheng, the only remaining third of the Zhao family's three brothers, answered Lin Qian's doubts when saying goodbye to her.
Lin Qian was stunned: "Is his mind okay?"
Zhao Cheng smiled awkwardly: "Second brother has a reckless temper, and he doesn't care about the consequences when he speaks and does things. It was okay to have the elder brother suppressing him before, but the elder brother is gone, and our two brothers were kicked out of Xianyang Palace again... Life outside is not easy, so he acted impulsively." ,At once……"
Lin Qian knew this for the first time: "Did His Majesty do it?"
Zhao Cheng took a look at Lin Qian and sighed: "Yes, your majesty may have checked us a long time ago, so after the elder brother was killed, he was worried that we would be disadvantageous to you, so he immediately drove the second brother and me out of Xianyang Palace. "
Lin Qian nodded thoughtfully.
Looking at Lin Qian, Zhao Cheng breathed a sigh of relief: "Seeing that you are safe and healthy with my own eyes, I am relieved."
Lin Qian turned around: "Huh?"
Zhao Cheng got up, cupped his hands and said: "After the eldest brother left, your majesty drove me and my second brother out of Xianyang Palace; but my second brother did such evil things again, your majesty can no longer tolerate me staying in Xianyang. See you today After you, I will set off to live elsewhere."
What's rare is that Zhao Cheng didn't show any displeasure on his face, on the contrary, he was full of yearning for the future as if he had unloaded some burden.
Lin Qian was stunned, as if some ailment had escaped from her body, and suddenly her whole body lightened.
Immediately afterwards, the memory of the original owner and Zhao Cheng appeared in her mind.
Zhao Cheng has always been inconspicuous among the three brothers of the Zhao family. Compared with the ambitious Zhao Gao and the hot-tempered Zhao Wu, Zhao Cheng has always been wise and safe, and seems a little timid.
But it was this timid Zhao Cheng who would occasionally help the original owner quietly when the other two were not paying attention.
It was just small things like delivering medicine and comforting, but it added a touch of warmth to the memory of the original owner.
Lin Qian thought for a while, and went to take some property rewarded by Yingzheng and handed it to Zhao Cheng: "You take these things and go to live in Yongcheng. Now that there are frequent wars, other countries are not as safe as Qin. Yongcheng is Qin again. The old capital of the country is not too prosperous, so you can live a good life with this money."
Zhao Cheng was stunned, and nodded seriously for a while.
After the people left, Lin Qian looked at Lin Wu who seemed to be lost, and suddenly remembered something: "Wu Niang, I have been learning to read and read these days, and I think there are two words that I like very much. I want to use them for myself and you. Name, would you like it?"
Wu Niang, who was in a low mood, turned her head suddenly, her eyes filled with disbelief: "You want to name me?"
Lin Qian laughed: "That's right, otherwise we would be called Si Niang and Wu Niang, which would be easy to confuse. After all, there are several Si Niang and Wu Niang in our Xianyang Palace alone."
Lin Wu nodded like a chicken pecking rice: "What name? I want it!"
Lin Qian was relieved: "I once read a scene written in a book, 'The land is flat and open, and the houses are like houses. There are fertile fields, beautiful ponds, mulberry and bamboo, traffic in the fields, chickens and dogs smelling each other...' (from Peach Blossom Spring) I I think this picture is very beautiful, and I like the word "Qianmo" very much. In addition, the two characters of "Qianmo" have the same radical and similar meaning. When I take the name, I know that they are brothers and sisters, so I want to name myself Lin Qian, your name is..."
"Lin Mo, right?" Lin Wu danced excitedly, "What a nice name! I want to tell everyone that I have a name too! I will be called Lin Mo from now on!"
Lin Qian was stunned for a moment, then suddenly laughed: "Yes, Lin Mo!"
==·Zhao Ji·==
After Zhao Cheng went to Yongcheng, Lin Qian once again resumed the days of going to the main hall every day in the past.
When Ying Zheng first met her, he asked her if she would continue to rest for a few days, but Lin Qian refused: "It's just an oolong, and it will be fine after a few days of rest. I have been resting for so long, and my body has recovered a long time ago." gone."
As she spoke, she looked at Ying Zheng.
Although the imperial doctor said that he was not good at gynecology, so he misdiagnosed her as pregnant, but Lin Qian, who knew that she was really pregnant, couldn't help suspecting that the imperial doctor said this because of Ying Zheng's order.
Ying Zheng just nodded, as if he didn't understand the meaning behind her words.
At first, the imperial doctor didn't let the imperial doctor say that Lin Qian had a miscarriage, but said it was a "misdiagnosis". It was originally just to protect Lin Qian.After all, if one says that Lin Qian is Miscarriage, one must give a reason for Miscarriage, and no matter whether the reason given can be justified, it will easily affect Lin Qian's image and make people feel that she is not cautious enough.
Based on Lin Qian's profound knowledge and the food seeds he brought out, Yingzheng plans to push people to the front step by step in the future——
Otherwise, with his efficiency in listening to heart sounds, who knows when the next time he hears useful news?
And for such a long time, Ying Zheng has long seen Lin Qian's character that cares about "responsibility": giving Lin Qian a position, binding her with a sense of responsibility, and letting her take the initiative to do things, is no more beneficial than him staying up late to listen to heart sounds to screen out useful news efficiency?
But it is more difficult for a woman to hold power than a man, if she gives people the image of acting recklessly, it will only be more difficult in the future.
Ok……
It just makes her doubt her own feelings, which is not so good.
Almost immediately, Ying Zheng thought of the heartbeat that was chattering like hundreds of sparrows in his ears a while ago, and subconsciously rubbed his brows: "Since your body has recovered, you should work hard!"
Lin Qian snorted from the bottom of her heart, lowered her head and concentrated on studying ink.
Within two days of going to work, the number of servants who came to report to Ying Zheng suddenly increased exponentially, and what they reported seemed to be related to the objects and decorations at the wedding.
Seeing that Lin Qian was puzzled, Ying Zheng replied casually: "Fusu's wedding is coming soon."
Lin Qian suddenly realized.
Time flies by like a fleeting horse, and soon the day of Fusu's wedding will come.
Although Fusu's marriage wasn't full of twists and turns, it took a lot of time, and the bride almost changed in the middle.Therefore, this wedding was extremely lively. Not only did the civil and military personnel of the whole court go to the Wang family to participate, but even a few young princes from the palace went to the Wang family to watch the ceremony, giving the Wang family enough face.
In order to prevent the wedding from being flawed, Ying Zheng even released the Empress Dowager Huayang who had been grounded before.
The Empress Dowager Zhao, who rarely showed up before, also appeared in front of people.
In the evening, Lin Qian took Lin Mo to the main hall where the wedding was held.Since she was only a minor envoy, she wisely took Lin Mo to a corner to wait.Although the location is not good, it is just convenient for her to have a private conversation with Lin Mo.
After leading Lin Mo to sit on his knees, Lin Qian raised his head and looked around.
Apart from the concubine beside her, the first thing she saw was the Empress Dowager Huayang who was kneeling on the couch in the center of the hall with a strange beautiful woman.
Lin Mo had inquired about it earlier, and seeing Lin Qian's doubts, he leaned into her ear and introduced: "The one next to the Empress Dowager Huayang is Your Majesty's biological mother, Empress Dowager Zhao. Since she was brought back to Xianyang Palace from Yongcheng by Your Majesty, she has brought her with her. With several maids living alone in Ganquan Palace, this is her first public appearance."
Lin Qian nodded, glanced around, and found that apart from these two queen mothers, there was no third queen mother in sight.
That Empress Dowager Xia should be gone.
Lin Qian glanced at the Empress Dowager Huayang, and then her eyes fell on the Empress Dowager Zhao who was next to her.
Logically speaking, Empress Dowager Zhao is the younger generation of Empress Dowager Huayang, so she must be younger than Empress Dowager Huayang, and both of them are queen mothers in the palace. There is not much difference in food, clothing, housing and transportation. Empress Dowager Zhao should look younger than Empress Dowager Huayang Younger is.
But the Empress Dowager Huayang still looks charming, but the Empress Dowager Zhao is haggard, and her eyes are as dull as stagnant water.
After Lin Qian saw Queen Mother Zhao, she always felt that she looked familiar...
Lin Mo put it bluntly: "Mother Qian, why do I feel that Queen Mother Zhao is somewhat similar to you before?"
Lin Qian was stunned: "I look a lot like Queen Mother Zhao?"
"No, no!" Lin Mo was a little distressed, as if he didn't know what to say, "In fact, you don't look very similar to Queen Mother Zhao, but... just, you used to look very similar to Queen Mother Zhao."
After a pause, Lin Mo said, "But it doesn't look like it now."
Lin Qian was stunned for a moment before realizing that what Lin Mo was talking about should be the type of facial features and personal temperament.
The types of facial features are like the more famous thick and light facial features in later generations. The facial features may not look alike, but they are all of the same type of appearance, so people will naturally feel more similar.
Lin Qian once looked at it with a bronze mirror and clear water, and the original owner's appearance was soft and charming. In addition, the original owner's temperament was weak, and even his temperament was also delicate, so the whole person felt a little pitiful.Coincidentally, even though the Empress Dowager Zhao looks ashamed now, it can be seen from her superior facial features and temperament that she is indeed the same type of beauty as the original owner.
Just looking at it can make people feel protective.
As for Lin Mo, it is more normal to say that it is not so resembling now——
Her personality is not to mention a world of difference from the original owner's, it can also be called the opposite, the core of a person has changed, and her temperament has naturally changed.Even if the appearance is still similar, it will no longer give people the same "weak and pitiful" feeling.
Perhaps Lin Qian had been observing for too long, which attracted the attention of Queen Mother Zhao.
She turned her head and looked over, and when she met Lin Qian's gaze, she smiled with her lips curled up, and a little bit of expression appeared in her eyes: "You are the young envoy Lin Zheng'er likes, right? Come here and show Aijia .”
Lin Qian felt strange in her heart, but still got up and obediently walked to the Empress Dowager Zhao and knelt down.
Empress Dowager Zhao looked at it for a moment with a smile, a dark look flashed in her eyes, then she turned to look at Empress Huayang: "Speaking of which, before Shao Envoy Lin appeared, I had never heard of any concubine that Zheng'er looked at differently. Before, I was worried that Zheng'er would always be obsessed with political affairs, and without a caring person around me, life would inevitably be dull, but now it's better, with Lin Shaoshi accompanying him every day, I don't have to worry about Zheng'er being too busy Three meals a day were delayed due to government affairs."
The Empress Dowager Huayang glanced at the Empress Dowager Zhao coldly, she didn't agree with her at all.
Lin Qian looked at Empress Dowager Zhao suspiciously. Hearing what she said, she really seemed like a loving mother who cared about her son.
but……
[Ying Zheng not only killed her lover, but also killed her two children. Could it be that the Queen Mother Zhao didn't hold any grudges?Is there no discord between the mother and son? 】
As soon as Ying Zheng walked to the main hall, he heard Lin Qian's heartbeat, and his originally happy mood suddenly fell to the bottom.
He paused, raised his foot and walked into the palace door.
Lin Qian was observing the expressions of Empress Dowager Zhao and Empress Huayang, but suddenly found that the smiles on their faces froze suddenly, and the atmosphere in the hall became cold and stiff in an instant.
She looked up, and sure enough, she saw Ying Zheng.
[The case has been solved, the Empress Dowager Zhao is really just trying to separate herself from the Empress Dowager Huayang! 】
[A mother who really cares about her son sees her son approaching, and if she doesn't smile and greet her, it's considered reserved. How can she be afraid? 】
After discovering that the Empress Dowager Zhao's eyes had returned to the stagnant pool before, Lin Qian became more and more sure: the relationship between the mother and the child is indeed extremely bad!
[But that's right, not only are there three lives between the mother and son, but Ying Zheng was almost killed by the Queen Mother Zhao. It's only natural that the relationship is bad, and it's a ghost if the relationship is good. 】
Ying Zheng heard Lin Qian's thoughts, and a smile flashed in his eyes.
He stepped forward, saluted Empress Dowager Huayang and Empress Dowager Zhao in turn, then went to the very middle and knelt down: "Young envoy Lin, why are you here?"
Lin Qian looked at Queen Mother Zhao, but saw that she didn't say a word, she didn't seem to want to talk to Ying Zheng, so she could only speak by herself: "Return to your majesty, Queen Mother Zhao may have never seen the concubine, so she called her to come to recognize her." recognize people."
Ying Zheng nodded: "Since you have seen it, you should step back."
Lin Qian couldn't wait for it, and immediately got up and returned to her seat.
And not long after she went back, there was a strange sound of music outside.Lin Qian couldn't tell what musical instrument was playing, but felt solemn and sacred. Seeing that everyone in the house was looking forward to the door, she guessed that it was the newcomer.
Sure enough, not long after, a new couple arrived together.
The man was Fusu who Lin Qian had seen before. Even wearing a black wedding dress with a red black bird pattern could not hide his tenderness. Standing next to Fusu, the wedding gown with the main color and supplemented by a large black black bird pattern made people feel a bit like a married couple.
The two of them walked through the steps of the wedding step by step under Fengchang's guidance, and finally kowtowed to several elders before leaving the hall and returning to Fusu's residence.
The newcomers have left, and the people in the hall will naturally also disperse.
Ying Zheng was the last to come, but the first to leave.Almost as soon as the new couple stepped out of the threshold of the hall, he got up and prepared to leave.
Then came the two queen mothers.
The Empress Dowager Huayang was fine, probably because she was worried about losing money at Lin Qian's hands again, so she didn't look at her more from the beginning to the end.
The Empress Dowager Zhao was a little strange. She was at the end, but she was not in a hurry to leave. After the other two left, she slowly came to Lin Qian. Let me just say, Zheng'er has been the King of Qin for many years, his temper has long been raised to be self-respecting, and he is used to being moody. Now that you are the most honored and favored, you should learn to show weakness. If you insist on being brave, I am afraid that he will be disgusted by him soon. "
After finishing speaking, Empress Dowager Zhao left the hall Shi Shiran.
Lin Qian was confused.
She can probably guess that Queen Mother Zhao has bad intentions, but...
Since when has she been pampered?
==·noble·==
Lin Qian was in the harem, Fusu could only see a limited number of scenes at this wedding, but it was not as grand as the scenes seen by the people outside the palace. The ass also ran out to watch the excitement, Fusu's dowry and the Wang family's dowry were carried by the soldiers around Xianyang City for more than a full circle before Fusu stepped into the gate of Xianyang Palace to welcome the bride.
But even if such a scene falls into the eyes of the Korean nobles, it can only be said: "The wedding of a prince of a country is so shabby, and it is not as good as ordinary princes. It is really rude!"
Zhang Liang next to him frowned and glanced at him. The man wanted to talk back, but he heard the clank of a sword unsheathed. He turned his head and saw the two teams of soldiers standing at the door looking back at him, with fire in his eyes. Burning slowly, it seems that if he dares to say one more word, he will make him look good.
Today, he was able to go out to watch the wind. It was originally because of Zhang Hao’s good words and good terms with these guarding soldiers.
The leading soldier snorted, and then asked his subordinates to retract their weapons.
Zhang Liang turned his head and continued to look at Fusu welcoming the bride.
He didn't speak, just stood at the door and watched quietly, and waited until the welcoming team was gone, then he talked to the soldiers at the door, turned and went back to his residence.
The person who spoke before leaned forward: "Zhang Liang, can you see something?"
Zhang Liang didn't answer, and after returning to the house and sitting down, he opened his mouth quietly: "It's just a wedding of a son who doesn't know whether he is favored or not. What can we see? The pomp is indeed not worthy of the status of a prince, but Qin is a remote place. What etiquette can you expect them to know?"
When the man heard it, yes, he stopped dwelling on this issue.
Seeing that Zhang Liang fell into deep thought after saying this, the man couldn't help teasing: "Zhang Liang, what are you thinking? How do you want to escape? Or do you want to save King Han? I advise you not to Think too much, no matter what, King Han was once a vassal king, even if King Qin took people captive, he would not treat him too badly. If you really want to worry, you might as well worry more about yourself."
"Escape, I advise you not to think too much. The state of Qin is heavily guarded and restricted from going out. If you really escape from this house by chance, you may not be able to survive. If you are caught again, you may die It's all gone."
Zhang Liang glanced at him: "It's a mere life, so what if I lose it?"
The man was stunned, and suddenly remembered that Zhang Liang was a ruthless person who would not even hold a funeral for his brother after his brother's death, even if he had a fortune of millions.If Qin hadn't suddenly changed his mind later and sent troops to confiscate all the nobles' private property and confiscated all the private properties of the nobles, with the money in Zhang Liang's hands, maybe he could really support some anti-Qin forces according to his ideas, or simply buy a few skilled swordsmen to go...
Assassinate King Qin.
If this person said he didn't care about his life, he really didn't care.
Thinking like this, the man had no choice but to say awkwardly: "What's the matter with you, you don't understand the reason why it's better to die than to live?"
Zhang Liang didn't even bother to talk to him.
The man was angry and annoyed, and wanted to walk away.But the two of them were locked up in this house, except for the soldiers who guarded the door, not even a slave who helped clean and cook. Even if he left now in a rage, he would only be disappointed later. Ask Zhang Liangfu to beg for mercy.
He can't stand being alone.
Zhang Liang ignored him, and his mind was still circling what he saw and heard when he was escorted to Xianyang, and what he saw just now... The people on the street married an ordinary son of Qin, from the bottom of their hearts feel happy.
Zhang Liang had never seen such a scene.
Zhang Liang is now in his early twenties, and because his father died when he was only a child, he could not rely on his father's shade to enter the court as an official. Being able to be a low-level official in South Korea will no longer be able to continue the legend of "five generations of Prime Minister Han" like his grandfather and father.
But he was not reconciled, and traveled around in order to spread his fame.
But even if the rich and powerful are like Qi and Chu, capable people are born like Wei, brave and good at fighting like Zhao, and the folk customs are as tough as Yan...
It also seems to be no different from Korea.
The lives of the nobles are equally extravagant, the lives of officials are the same drunkenness, and the lives of the common people are generally precarious.
The people at the bottom of the society don't say that they are happy for the marriage of the royal family, and it is good not to curse secretly when they see it.
He almost thought that this was the case in the Seven Kingdoms.
Unexpectedly, when Zhang Liang was too young, he felt that his abilities were not good enough—because the Qin State had been fighting against other countries all the year round, and it was located in a wild land, so the reputation in various countries had never been very good——he didn’t dare to enter it rashly. The state of Qin, on the contrary, gave him a completely different feeling from the other six countries.
The Qin State, which has always been known as the strict law, has its monarch and even his heirs, are they loved by the people at the bottom?
Zhang Liang was hit hard.
He doesn't understand why there are so many people who love the king under the unusually strict Qin law, but the six countries with tolerant laws can only be feared and insulted by the people behind their backs.
Zhang Liang sat on the spot and thought about it all night, his head was about to explode, but he didn't want to understand this question.
But he didn't want to, the next day he actually got the answer from that "roommate" who had always been ignorant: "Why do you bother with such ridiculous questions? My father always praised you for being smarter than others, but you never thought about it." However, where did your Zhang family's wealth come from before it was confiscated by the Qin State?"
Zhang Liang frowned: "It is the salary of grandfather and father who have been officials for many years, the rewards from His Majesty accumulated over the years, and the accumulated grain output of the fields that the Zhang family has purchased and increased for many years."
"Then where did your grandfather and father get their salaries, His Majesty's rewards, and the Zhang family's property?"
Zhang Liang's tone was slightly hesitant: "It's... the people's annual tax."
"Look, isn't this part of the answer?"
"Part of it?"
"That's right." The man took it for granted, "Except that the tax collected by the people of Qin State is lower than that of the six countries, the nobles of Qin State committed the same crime as the common people after breaking the law. Can we do the same? The nobles of Qin State beat the common people to death Do you dare to follow the laws of the Six Kingdoms if you want to kill your head and pay for your life? The nobles of the Qin Kingdom would violate the laws of Qin by robbing the people’s land, the same as the nobles of the Six Kingdoms? ..."
"You all know?"
"You do not know?"
"You know, why don't you try to persuade His Majesty to reform? If South Korea reforms, the country will become stronger. How can it be easily annexed by Qin! Under the collapse of the nest, how can there be any eggs? If South Korea is not annexed, we will not be reduced. As a survivor of the subjugation of the country, I will not be reduced to a prisoner, and I will not end up in such a situation!"
"Zhang Liang, I thought you inherited the wisdom of your grandfather and father, but it turns out...you are not as good as me?" The man twitched his lips, "You think I'm the only one who knows why Qin is so powerful? I'm just a quick reader. He’s just a dandy with a few books, and even being an official in the court will be laughed at for his incompetence, the court knows better than me why there are so many people in Qin State, do you think they have thought about reforming?”
Zhang Liang didn't believe it: "How is it possible..."
"Let's not talk about it, it is impossible for grandfather and father to understand why Qin is strong!"
"Then why..."
"Why?" The man suddenly thought of the key point, "That's right, when your father passed away, you were just a general enlightenment. Apart from your grandfather and your father, the Zhang family didn't have anyone on the stage. There is no one to teach you, and you can't get in touch with the major affairs of the court, so it's only natural that you don't know these things."
He realized that he was also stronger than Zhang Liang, and he became excited: "Why do you ask? Naturally, it is because we are all nobles! The people of Qin are naturally better off than the people of South Korea, but look at Qin The nobles of the country, how can the nobles of South Korea and other countries be at ease? Who would want to live like the nobles of the Qin country if they can live a life of extravagance before? Are you willing?"
Zhang Liang was stunned, his mind went blank.
==·Cracked·==
Zhang Liang was silent for many days after that. Just when his roommate couldn't help worrying and asked the guards outside the door to ask them to find a doctor outside to show Zhang Liang, Lin Qian finally knew that Zhang Liang had been escorted to the prison. News from Xianyang.
Lin Qian couldn't believe it——
【how can that be possible?Obviously before the fall of Qin, there is no record of Zhang Liang coming to Xianyang? 】
[What's more, he was escorted to Xianyang like a prisoner. 】
[He almost succeeded in assassinating Ying Zheng after the unification of the Qin State, which made Ying Zheng furious, and the arrest warrants issued by the whole country failed to catch anyone, how could he be arrested now? 】
She couldn't help but look at Ying Zheng: [I brought the butterfly effect again? 】
Ying Zheng didn't change his face, just pretending that he didn't hear Lin Qian's heartbeat.
Although Zhang Liang almost succeeded in assassinating himself, he almost broke his defense, but fortunately...he was used to it, so he didn't show his flaws.
Lin Qian felt bored.
"...That's how things are." Meng Tian knelt in front of Yingzheng, "Although the elders of Zhang Liang's family have had a good experience, they tried to bribe Lu Wen with money after all to influence the government of our Great Qin Dynasty. Ask about medicine."
[It's a good thing to be sick and die! 】
Ying Zheng paused, then turned to look at Lin Qian: "Madam thinks, what should I do with Zhang Liang?"
【Um? 】
【Why do you ask me this question? 】
Lin Qian glanced at Ying Zheng, and replied cautiously: "I don't understand government affairs, so in order to avoid bad consequences, it's better for Your Majesty to decide for himself."
[Want me to say?Of course I think it is better to keep Zhang Liang, after all, Zhang Liang is one of the three heroes in the early Han Dynasty, and his ability is self-evident.But the problem is that Zhang Liang at this time should still be a young boy, he has not met Huang Shigong, he has never been taught by him, and he has not learned "The Grand Duke's Art of War", so he can only be regarded as a talent...]
Ying Zheng frowned.
"Taigong Art of War", also known as "Six Secret Teachings" and "Taigong Six Secret Teachings", is the chapter "Soldiers" of Huang Lao Taoist's famous classic "Taigong". Therefore, many famous people have learned skills from it, and they are also famous in various countries.
This book is not widely circulated, but it is not uncommon among nobles, but only a very small number of people can learn from it.
But the problem is...
Qin has no shortage of generals.
What the Qin State lacks has always been counselors and capable ministers who can assist the king in fighting and governing the country.
If Zhang Liang is a general, then Ying Zheng has no need to keep him.
He narrowed his eyes and said: "Since Zhang Liangzu's "Fifth Chancellor Han" happened, he should also have something different from ordinary people. During the period of guarding, did the soldiers find anything?"
Meng Tian was stunned for a moment: "I heard that Zhang Liang likes to sit alone in the room in a daze, and occasionally he would try to ask the soldiers to borrow a few books to read, but most of them are... By the way, I heard that the young master helped Su get married. The next day, Zhang Liang had an argument with the person who lived with him, and the two seemed to be arguing violently, and almost fought."
"It was also after that quarrel that Zhang Liang seemed to have lost his soul. He hid in his room dumbfounded and never came out once."
Ying Zheng was curious: "What's the noise?"
Meng Tian seriously recalled for a moment: "The guarding soldiers didn't hear clearly, they could only vaguely distinguish words such as common people, nobles, Qin Kingdom, Six Kingdoms, father, cleverness, reform, and subjugation. Zhang Liang seemed very excited and indignant. On the contrary, the people who live here are quite rogue, and seem to disagree."
People and nobles?Qin and Six Kingdoms?Reform and subjugate the country?
Gee...
This is not something that a military general would consider.
Ying Zheng couldn't help looking at Lin Qian, but he didn't expect this to be a talent.
But how to train and employ people has become a problem.
After all, Zhang Liang seemed to be quite hostile to him, and he didn't have a good impression of Qin, so it was not so easy to use him.
However, Zhang Liang is still young after all, so he can slowly plot...
Ying Zheng thought so at first, but he couldn't stand the group of Korean nobles who liked to help him!
Not many days after this happened, Yingchuan County (Korea) sent a case that Yingzheng had to judge personally——
Because one of them is the former Korean nobleman.
Although the former nobles in South Korea lost their private arms, a large number of slaves and money, most of their lives were not as good as ordinary people, but the concepts and habits cultivated for thousands of years are not so easy to change.
For example, there are still many old nobles who rely on their status and do not treat former slaves and common people as human beings.
During this period, conflicts inevitably arose, which developed into criminal cases.
This case presented to Yingzheng came about because of this: After losing his title and property, an old nobleman still refused to let go of his body to participate in labor, and even spent money lavishly, even the last few jewelry hidden by his wife. He stole it and sold it and spent it all.Then, for the first time, he tasted hunger.
But after this person was hungry, he didn't think about making money to buy food, but thinking about... robbing.
Of course, he himself didn't think it was robbery.
Because the person he robbed was a former slave of his family.
Before a slave is granted civilian status, an individual cannot own private property. All the money he earns, and even himself, is the property of the master.
So the old nobleman robbed and robbed with confidence.
But the other party is naturally unwilling. He is no longer a slave now, and he earned all the money by himself.Moreover, he still has a wife and children to support, how could he be snatched away by the former master who beat and scolded him so often?
Fortunately, the opponent was strong enough to prevent the old aristocrat whose body was hollowed out by wine and sex from being robbed successfully.
But at the same time, this honest man also felt that although he had suffered a lot before, he also
When Lin Qian woke up, it was already the next day.
As soon as she opened her eyes, she met Lin Wu's anxious face. She froze for a moment, and was about to speak, but found that her throat was so dry that she couldn't make a sound, as if stuck with glue. :"water……"
Lin Wu looked surprised: "Si Niang is thirsty? I'll pour water for you right away..."
She quickly went around the screen to pour a glass of water, and at the same time, she did not forget to invite the imperial doctor waiting outside.
After Lin Qian drank the water, the imperial doctor stepped forward to diagnose her pulse.
After a while, the imperial doctor breathed a sigh of relief: "Madam has been recuperating well these days, and this shock did not affect you too much. After waking up and resting for a day or two, you will be fine."
Lin Qian hurriedly thanked: "Thanks to the prescription prescribed by the imperial doctor."
After a few words of refusal, the imperial doctor took his leave and left.
Lin Wu personally sent the imperial doctor out, and only after he came back did he tell Lin Qian what happened yesterday: "Si Niang, after you passed out last night, General Meng Er was so frightened that he hurriedly let us get on the carriage and returned home quickly." In the palace. Fortunately, the imperial doctor said after taking the pulse that you were just overly frightened, otherwise General Meng Er might be beaten up by General Meng."
Lin Qian was a little embarrassed: "I didn't expect that someone would assassinate me, an unknown person, and General Meng Er was directly in front of me..." Killing.
face to face!
She remembered that when Zhao Wu died, his eyes were wide open and he kept staring at her.She didn't have a nightmare last night, and she felt that it was because she had experienced it once, and her nerves were strengthened.
It is estimated that she will get used to it a few more times, right?
Lin Qian let out a breath, and pulled Lin Wu to sit on the couch: "I remember you hugged me and fell to the ground yesterday, how was it? Have you had the imperial doctor see it? Is it serious? Did the imperial doctor prescribe you any medicine?" ?”
While talking, she still felt uneasy and wanted to take a look at Lin Wu's clothes.
Lin Wu grabbed her hand with a smile: "Don't worry, Si Niang, I'm fine. After returning to the palace yesterday, the imperial doctor prescribed medicine for you, and saw the scratches on my neck, so he checked my pulse. The imperial doctor Having said that, it’s just some skin trauma, after applying the medicine, don’t touch the water and don’t bask in the sun, or it will heal within two days.”
As she spoke, she showed Lin Qian the wound on her neck, "Look, the medicine has been applied."
Lin Qian felt relieved, and then asked: "Then Zhao Wu..."
She wanted to say that it sounded familiar, but unexpectedly, Lin Wu exploded when she heard Zhao Wu's name: "Zhao Wu, that goddamn bastard, has been so bold and heartless since he was a child, he dared to sell you to a kidnapper. It's even more vicious when it grows up, and it actually wants to kill you! How can there be such a vicious thing in this world? It's simply not worthy of being human!"
When Lin Wu said this, Lin Qian remembered Zhao Wu's identity——
The second brother of the original owner!
I can't blame her for not remembering Zhao Wu's identity for the first time: Lin Qian inherited almost all the original owner's memories after transmigrating, except for her three elder brothers.Under such circumstances, even if Lin Wu knew that the original owner had three older brothers, and knew their names, it would be difficult for Lin Qian to act as a substitute; secondly...she had never seen the three brothers since she transmigrated.
Uh, I think I've seen it before...
Lin Qian finally remembered that Zhao Gao, who was killed before, should be regarded as... his elder brother?
She was a little speechless. She thought that what she was wearing was just cannon fodder, but she didn't expect that she was not only the biological mother of the tyrant Hu Hai, but also the younger sister of the treacherous minister Zhao Gao?
Lin Qian looked at Lin Wu: "Is it because of Zhao Gao that Zhao Wu assassinated me?"
Lin Wu paused, hesitated for a moment and then nodded.
"Siniang, don't think about it, Zhao Wu's brain is abnormal!" Lin Wuyue thought more and more angrily, "Zhao Gao was killed because he slandered the Empress Dowager Huayang, what does it have to do with you? He wants revenge Why did I come to you? It’s just that the persimmon wanted to be picky and thought you were easy to bully!”
In Lin Wu's heart, even if Zhao Wu wanted revenge, he should go to His Majesty, why should he go to Si Niang?
It's a pity that she dared not say such words out of her mouth.
Lin Qian had some guesses: "If Zhao Wu and Zhao Gao have a good relationship, Zhao Gao should tell Zhao Wu about his plan. Although I don't know what Zhao Gao did, he mentioned the Queen Mother Huayang and Zhao Gao. I, it is likely that the Empress Dowager Huayang wanted to use Zhao Gao to target me, but she did not expect Zhao Gao to turn against the water, and instead used her as a stepping stone, wanting to inform His Majesty and surrender."
Lin Wu's eyes widened: "Is Zhao Gao so courageous?!"
That's the Empress Dowager Huayang!
Lin Qian was not surprised, after all, Zhao Gao in history was extraordinarily daring.
She twitched the corner of her mouth: "But Zhao Gao didn't expect that His Majesty's eyes were as bright as a torch, and he could see the truth of the whole thing at a glance, so he killed him."
"Your Majesty is wise!"
Lin Wu shouted, and said again: "But even if this is the case, what does it have to do with you?"
If you want revenge, find the Empress Dowager Huayang!
Lin Qian didn't understand either.
……
"Because the second brother thinks that all these things happened because of your ungratefulness, Si Niang, and you never recommended your eldest brother to your majesty after being appointed as a young envoy by your majesty. If you had recommended your eldest brother early in the morning, your eldest brother would not take the risk and go to Huayang The empress dowager contacted, and then let His Majesty see the clue and lost his life."
Zhao Cheng, the only remaining third of the Zhao family's three brothers, answered Lin Qian's doubts when saying goodbye to her.
Lin Qian was stunned: "Is his mind okay?"
Zhao Cheng smiled awkwardly: "Second brother has a reckless temper, and he doesn't care about the consequences when he speaks and does things. It was okay to have the elder brother suppressing him before, but the elder brother is gone, and our two brothers were kicked out of Xianyang Palace again... Life outside is not easy, so he acted impulsively." ,At once……"
Lin Qian knew this for the first time: "Did His Majesty do it?"
Zhao Cheng took a look at Lin Qian and sighed: "Yes, your majesty may have checked us a long time ago, so after the elder brother was killed, he was worried that we would be disadvantageous to you, so he immediately drove the second brother and me out of Xianyang Palace. "
Lin Qian nodded thoughtfully.
Looking at Lin Qian, Zhao Cheng breathed a sigh of relief: "Seeing that you are safe and healthy with my own eyes, I am relieved."
Lin Qian turned around: "Huh?"
Zhao Cheng got up, cupped his hands and said: "After the eldest brother left, your majesty drove me and my second brother out of Xianyang Palace; but my second brother did such evil things again, your majesty can no longer tolerate me staying in Xianyang. See you today After you, I will set off to live elsewhere."
What's rare is that Zhao Cheng didn't show any displeasure on his face, on the contrary, he was full of yearning for the future as if he had unloaded some burden.
Lin Qian was stunned, as if some ailment had escaped from her body, and suddenly her whole body lightened.
Immediately afterwards, the memory of the original owner and Zhao Cheng appeared in her mind.
Zhao Cheng has always been inconspicuous among the three brothers of the Zhao family. Compared with the ambitious Zhao Gao and the hot-tempered Zhao Wu, Zhao Cheng has always been wise and safe, and seems a little timid.
But it was this timid Zhao Cheng who would occasionally help the original owner quietly when the other two were not paying attention.
It was just small things like delivering medicine and comforting, but it added a touch of warmth to the memory of the original owner.
Lin Qian thought for a while, and went to take some property rewarded by Yingzheng and handed it to Zhao Cheng: "You take these things and go to live in Yongcheng. Now that there are frequent wars, other countries are not as safe as Qin. Yongcheng is Qin again. The old capital of the country is not too prosperous, so you can live a good life with this money."
Zhao Cheng was stunned, and nodded seriously for a while.
After the people left, Lin Qian looked at Lin Wu who seemed to be lost, and suddenly remembered something: "Wu Niang, I have been learning to read and read these days, and I think there are two words that I like very much. I want to use them for myself and you. Name, would you like it?"
Wu Niang, who was in a low mood, turned her head suddenly, her eyes filled with disbelief: "You want to name me?"
Lin Qian laughed: "That's right, otherwise we would be called Si Niang and Wu Niang, which would be easy to confuse. After all, there are several Si Niang and Wu Niang in our Xianyang Palace alone."
Lin Wu nodded like a chicken pecking rice: "What name? I want it!"
Lin Qian was relieved: "I once read a scene written in a book, 'The land is flat and open, and the houses are like houses. There are fertile fields, beautiful ponds, mulberry and bamboo, traffic in the fields, chickens and dogs smelling each other...' (from Peach Blossom Spring) I I think this picture is very beautiful, and I like the word "Qianmo" very much. In addition, the two characters of "Qianmo" have the same radical and similar meaning. When I take the name, I know that they are brothers and sisters, so I want to name myself Lin Qian, your name is..."
"Lin Mo, right?" Lin Wu danced excitedly, "What a nice name! I want to tell everyone that I have a name too! I will be called Lin Mo from now on!"
Lin Qian was stunned for a moment, then suddenly laughed: "Yes, Lin Mo!"
==·Zhao Ji·==
After Zhao Cheng went to Yongcheng, Lin Qian once again resumed the days of going to the main hall every day in the past.
When Ying Zheng first met her, he asked her if she would continue to rest for a few days, but Lin Qian refused: "It's just an oolong, and it will be fine after a few days of rest. I have been resting for so long, and my body has recovered a long time ago." gone."
As she spoke, she looked at Ying Zheng.
Although the imperial doctor said that he was not good at gynecology, so he misdiagnosed her as pregnant, but Lin Qian, who knew that she was really pregnant, couldn't help suspecting that the imperial doctor said this because of Ying Zheng's order.
Ying Zheng just nodded, as if he didn't understand the meaning behind her words.
At first, the imperial doctor didn't let the imperial doctor say that Lin Qian had a miscarriage, but said it was a "misdiagnosis". It was originally just to protect Lin Qian.After all, if one says that Lin Qian is Miscarriage, one must give a reason for Miscarriage, and no matter whether the reason given can be justified, it will easily affect Lin Qian's image and make people feel that she is not cautious enough.
Based on Lin Qian's profound knowledge and the food seeds he brought out, Yingzheng plans to push people to the front step by step in the future——
Otherwise, with his efficiency in listening to heart sounds, who knows when the next time he hears useful news?
And for such a long time, Ying Zheng has long seen Lin Qian's character that cares about "responsibility": giving Lin Qian a position, binding her with a sense of responsibility, and letting her take the initiative to do things, is no more beneficial than him staying up late to listen to heart sounds to screen out useful news efficiency?
But it is more difficult for a woman to hold power than a man, if she gives people the image of acting recklessly, it will only be more difficult in the future.
Ok……
It just makes her doubt her own feelings, which is not so good.
Almost immediately, Ying Zheng thought of the heartbeat that was chattering like hundreds of sparrows in his ears a while ago, and subconsciously rubbed his brows: "Since your body has recovered, you should work hard!"
Lin Qian snorted from the bottom of her heart, lowered her head and concentrated on studying ink.
Within two days of going to work, the number of servants who came to report to Ying Zheng suddenly increased exponentially, and what they reported seemed to be related to the objects and decorations at the wedding.
Seeing that Lin Qian was puzzled, Ying Zheng replied casually: "Fusu's wedding is coming soon."
Lin Qian suddenly realized.
Time flies by like a fleeting horse, and soon the day of Fusu's wedding will come.
Although Fusu's marriage wasn't full of twists and turns, it took a lot of time, and the bride almost changed in the middle.Therefore, this wedding was extremely lively. Not only did the civil and military personnel of the whole court go to the Wang family to participate, but even a few young princes from the palace went to the Wang family to watch the ceremony, giving the Wang family enough face.
In order to prevent the wedding from being flawed, Ying Zheng even released the Empress Dowager Huayang who had been grounded before.
The Empress Dowager Zhao, who rarely showed up before, also appeared in front of people.
In the evening, Lin Qian took Lin Mo to the main hall where the wedding was held.Since she was only a minor envoy, she wisely took Lin Mo to a corner to wait.Although the location is not good, it is just convenient for her to have a private conversation with Lin Mo.
After leading Lin Mo to sit on his knees, Lin Qian raised his head and looked around.
Apart from the concubine beside her, the first thing she saw was the Empress Dowager Huayang who was kneeling on the couch in the center of the hall with a strange beautiful woman.
Lin Mo had inquired about it earlier, and seeing Lin Qian's doubts, he leaned into her ear and introduced: "The one next to the Empress Dowager Huayang is Your Majesty's biological mother, Empress Dowager Zhao. Since she was brought back to Xianyang Palace from Yongcheng by Your Majesty, she has brought her with her. With several maids living alone in Ganquan Palace, this is her first public appearance."
Lin Qian nodded, glanced around, and found that apart from these two queen mothers, there was no third queen mother in sight.
That Empress Dowager Xia should be gone.
Lin Qian glanced at the Empress Dowager Huayang, and then her eyes fell on the Empress Dowager Zhao who was next to her.
Logically speaking, Empress Dowager Zhao is the younger generation of Empress Dowager Huayang, so she must be younger than Empress Dowager Huayang, and both of them are queen mothers in the palace. There is not much difference in food, clothing, housing and transportation. Empress Dowager Zhao should look younger than Empress Dowager Huayang Younger is.
But the Empress Dowager Huayang still looks charming, but the Empress Dowager Zhao is haggard, and her eyes are as dull as stagnant water.
After Lin Qian saw Queen Mother Zhao, she always felt that she looked familiar...
Lin Mo put it bluntly: "Mother Qian, why do I feel that Queen Mother Zhao is somewhat similar to you before?"
Lin Qian was stunned: "I look a lot like Queen Mother Zhao?"
"No, no!" Lin Mo was a little distressed, as if he didn't know what to say, "In fact, you don't look very similar to Queen Mother Zhao, but... just, you used to look very similar to Queen Mother Zhao."
After a pause, Lin Mo said, "But it doesn't look like it now."
Lin Qian was stunned for a moment before realizing that what Lin Mo was talking about should be the type of facial features and personal temperament.
The types of facial features are like the more famous thick and light facial features in later generations. The facial features may not look alike, but they are all of the same type of appearance, so people will naturally feel more similar.
Lin Qian once looked at it with a bronze mirror and clear water, and the original owner's appearance was soft and charming. In addition, the original owner's temperament was weak, and even his temperament was also delicate, so the whole person felt a little pitiful.Coincidentally, even though the Empress Dowager Zhao looks ashamed now, it can be seen from her superior facial features and temperament that she is indeed the same type of beauty as the original owner.
Just looking at it can make people feel protective.
As for Lin Mo, it is more normal to say that it is not so resembling now——
Her personality is not to mention a world of difference from the original owner's, it can also be called the opposite, the core of a person has changed, and her temperament has naturally changed.Even if the appearance is still similar, it will no longer give people the same "weak and pitiful" feeling.
Perhaps Lin Qian had been observing for too long, which attracted the attention of Queen Mother Zhao.
She turned her head and looked over, and when she met Lin Qian's gaze, she smiled with her lips curled up, and a little bit of expression appeared in her eyes: "You are the young envoy Lin Zheng'er likes, right? Come here and show Aijia .”
Lin Qian felt strange in her heart, but still got up and obediently walked to the Empress Dowager Zhao and knelt down.
Empress Dowager Zhao looked at it for a moment with a smile, a dark look flashed in her eyes, then she turned to look at Empress Huayang: "Speaking of which, before Shao Envoy Lin appeared, I had never heard of any concubine that Zheng'er looked at differently. Before, I was worried that Zheng'er would always be obsessed with political affairs, and without a caring person around me, life would inevitably be dull, but now it's better, with Lin Shaoshi accompanying him every day, I don't have to worry about Zheng'er being too busy Three meals a day were delayed due to government affairs."
The Empress Dowager Huayang glanced at the Empress Dowager Zhao coldly, she didn't agree with her at all.
Lin Qian looked at Empress Dowager Zhao suspiciously. Hearing what she said, she really seemed like a loving mother who cared about her son.
but……
[Ying Zheng not only killed her lover, but also killed her two children. Could it be that the Queen Mother Zhao didn't hold any grudges?Is there no discord between the mother and son? 】
As soon as Ying Zheng walked to the main hall, he heard Lin Qian's heartbeat, and his originally happy mood suddenly fell to the bottom.
He paused, raised his foot and walked into the palace door.
Lin Qian was observing the expressions of Empress Dowager Zhao and Empress Huayang, but suddenly found that the smiles on their faces froze suddenly, and the atmosphere in the hall became cold and stiff in an instant.
She looked up, and sure enough, she saw Ying Zheng.
[The case has been solved, the Empress Dowager Zhao is really just trying to separate herself from the Empress Dowager Huayang! 】
[A mother who really cares about her son sees her son approaching, and if she doesn't smile and greet her, it's considered reserved. How can she be afraid? 】
After discovering that the Empress Dowager Zhao's eyes had returned to the stagnant pool before, Lin Qian became more and more sure: the relationship between the mother and the child is indeed extremely bad!
[But that's right, not only are there three lives between the mother and son, but Ying Zheng was almost killed by the Queen Mother Zhao. It's only natural that the relationship is bad, and it's a ghost if the relationship is good. 】
Ying Zheng heard Lin Qian's thoughts, and a smile flashed in his eyes.
He stepped forward, saluted Empress Dowager Huayang and Empress Dowager Zhao in turn, then went to the very middle and knelt down: "Young envoy Lin, why are you here?"
Lin Qian looked at Queen Mother Zhao, but saw that she didn't say a word, she didn't seem to want to talk to Ying Zheng, so she could only speak by herself: "Return to your majesty, Queen Mother Zhao may have never seen the concubine, so she called her to come to recognize her." recognize people."
Ying Zheng nodded: "Since you have seen it, you should step back."
Lin Qian couldn't wait for it, and immediately got up and returned to her seat.
And not long after she went back, there was a strange sound of music outside.Lin Qian couldn't tell what musical instrument was playing, but felt solemn and sacred. Seeing that everyone in the house was looking forward to the door, she guessed that it was the newcomer.
Sure enough, not long after, a new couple arrived together.
The man was Fusu who Lin Qian had seen before. Even wearing a black wedding dress with a red black bird pattern could not hide his tenderness. Standing next to Fusu, the wedding gown with the main color and supplemented by a large black black bird pattern made people feel a bit like a married couple.
The two of them walked through the steps of the wedding step by step under Fengchang's guidance, and finally kowtowed to several elders before leaving the hall and returning to Fusu's residence.
The newcomers have left, and the people in the hall will naturally also disperse.
Ying Zheng was the last to come, but the first to leave.Almost as soon as the new couple stepped out of the threshold of the hall, he got up and prepared to leave.
Then came the two queen mothers.
The Empress Dowager Huayang was fine, probably because she was worried about losing money at Lin Qian's hands again, so she didn't look at her more from the beginning to the end.
The Empress Dowager Zhao was a little strange. She was at the end, but she was not in a hurry to leave. After the other two left, she slowly came to Lin Qian. Let me just say, Zheng'er has been the King of Qin for many years, his temper has long been raised to be self-respecting, and he is used to being moody. Now that you are the most honored and favored, you should learn to show weakness. If you insist on being brave, I am afraid that he will be disgusted by him soon. "
After finishing speaking, Empress Dowager Zhao left the hall Shi Shiran.
Lin Qian was confused.
She can probably guess that Queen Mother Zhao has bad intentions, but...
Since when has she been pampered?
==·noble·==
Lin Qian was in the harem, Fusu could only see a limited number of scenes at this wedding, but it was not as grand as the scenes seen by the people outside the palace. The ass also ran out to watch the excitement, Fusu's dowry and the Wang family's dowry were carried by the soldiers around Xianyang City for more than a full circle before Fusu stepped into the gate of Xianyang Palace to welcome the bride.
But even if such a scene falls into the eyes of the Korean nobles, it can only be said: "The wedding of a prince of a country is so shabby, and it is not as good as ordinary princes. It is really rude!"
Zhang Liang next to him frowned and glanced at him. The man wanted to talk back, but he heard the clank of a sword unsheathed. He turned his head and saw the two teams of soldiers standing at the door looking back at him, with fire in his eyes. Burning slowly, it seems that if he dares to say one more word, he will make him look good.
Today, he was able to go out to watch the wind. It was originally because of Zhang Hao’s good words and good terms with these guarding soldiers.
The leading soldier snorted, and then asked his subordinates to retract their weapons.
Zhang Liang turned his head and continued to look at Fusu welcoming the bride.
He didn't speak, just stood at the door and watched quietly, and waited until the welcoming team was gone, then he talked to the soldiers at the door, turned and went back to his residence.
The person who spoke before leaned forward: "Zhang Liang, can you see something?"
Zhang Liang didn't answer, and after returning to the house and sitting down, he opened his mouth quietly: "It's just a wedding of a son who doesn't know whether he is favored or not. What can we see? The pomp is indeed not worthy of the status of a prince, but Qin is a remote place. What etiquette can you expect them to know?"
When the man heard it, yes, he stopped dwelling on this issue.
Seeing that Zhang Liang fell into deep thought after saying this, the man couldn't help teasing: "Zhang Liang, what are you thinking? How do you want to escape? Or do you want to save King Han? I advise you not to Think too much, no matter what, King Han was once a vassal king, even if King Qin took people captive, he would not treat him too badly. If you really want to worry, you might as well worry more about yourself."
"Escape, I advise you not to think too much. The state of Qin is heavily guarded and restricted from going out. If you really escape from this house by chance, you may not be able to survive. If you are caught again, you may die It's all gone."
Zhang Liang glanced at him: "It's a mere life, so what if I lose it?"
The man was stunned, and suddenly remembered that Zhang Liang was a ruthless person who would not even hold a funeral for his brother after his brother's death, even if he had a fortune of millions.If Qin hadn't suddenly changed his mind later and sent troops to confiscate all the nobles' private property and confiscated all the private properties of the nobles, with the money in Zhang Liang's hands, maybe he could really support some anti-Qin forces according to his ideas, or simply buy a few skilled swordsmen to go...
Assassinate King Qin.
If this person said he didn't care about his life, he really didn't care.
Thinking like this, the man had no choice but to say awkwardly: "What's the matter with you, you don't understand the reason why it's better to die than to live?"
Zhang Liang didn't even bother to talk to him.
The man was angry and annoyed, and wanted to walk away.But the two of them were locked up in this house, except for the soldiers who guarded the door, not even a slave who helped clean and cook. Even if he left now in a rage, he would only be disappointed later. Ask Zhang Liangfu to beg for mercy.
He can't stand being alone.
Zhang Liang ignored him, and his mind was still circling what he saw and heard when he was escorted to Xianyang, and what he saw just now... The people on the street married an ordinary son of Qin, from the bottom of their hearts feel happy.
Zhang Liang had never seen such a scene.
Zhang Liang is now in his early twenties, and because his father died when he was only a child, he could not rely on his father's shade to enter the court as an official. Being able to be a low-level official in South Korea will no longer be able to continue the legend of "five generations of Prime Minister Han" like his grandfather and father.
But he was not reconciled, and traveled around in order to spread his fame.
But even if the rich and powerful are like Qi and Chu, capable people are born like Wei, brave and good at fighting like Zhao, and the folk customs are as tough as Yan...
It also seems to be no different from Korea.
The lives of the nobles are equally extravagant, the lives of officials are the same drunkenness, and the lives of the common people are generally precarious.
The people at the bottom of the society don't say that they are happy for the marriage of the royal family, and it is good not to curse secretly when they see it.
He almost thought that this was the case in the Seven Kingdoms.
Unexpectedly, when Zhang Liang was too young, he felt that his abilities were not good enough—because the Qin State had been fighting against other countries all the year round, and it was located in a wild land, so the reputation in various countries had never been very good——he didn’t dare to enter it rashly. The state of Qin, on the contrary, gave him a completely different feeling from the other six countries.
The Qin State, which has always been known as the strict law, has its monarch and even his heirs, are they loved by the people at the bottom?
Zhang Liang was hit hard.
He doesn't understand why there are so many people who love the king under the unusually strict Qin law, but the six countries with tolerant laws can only be feared and insulted by the people behind their backs.
Zhang Liang sat on the spot and thought about it all night, his head was about to explode, but he didn't want to understand this question.
But he didn't want to, the next day he actually got the answer from that "roommate" who had always been ignorant: "Why do you bother with such ridiculous questions? My father always praised you for being smarter than others, but you never thought about it." However, where did your Zhang family's wealth come from before it was confiscated by the Qin State?"
Zhang Liang frowned: "It is the salary of grandfather and father who have been officials for many years, the rewards from His Majesty accumulated over the years, and the accumulated grain output of the fields that the Zhang family has purchased and increased for many years."
"Then where did your grandfather and father get their salaries, His Majesty's rewards, and the Zhang family's property?"
Zhang Liang's tone was slightly hesitant: "It's... the people's annual tax."
"Look, isn't this part of the answer?"
"Part of it?"
"That's right." The man took it for granted, "Except that the tax collected by the people of Qin State is lower than that of the six countries, the nobles of Qin State committed the same crime as the common people after breaking the law. Can we do the same? The nobles of Qin State beat the common people to death Do you dare to follow the laws of the Six Kingdoms if you want to kill your head and pay for your life? The nobles of the Qin Kingdom would violate the laws of Qin by robbing the people’s land, the same as the nobles of the Six Kingdoms? ..."
"You all know?"
"You do not know?"
"You know, why don't you try to persuade His Majesty to reform? If South Korea reforms, the country will become stronger. How can it be easily annexed by Qin! Under the collapse of the nest, how can there be any eggs? If South Korea is not annexed, we will not be reduced. As a survivor of the subjugation of the country, I will not be reduced to a prisoner, and I will not end up in such a situation!"
"Zhang Liang, I thought you inherited the wisdom of your grandfather and father, but it turns out...you are not as good as me?" The man twitched his lips, "You think I'm the only one who knows why Qin is so powerful? I'm just a quick reader. He’s just a dandy with a few books, and even being an official in the court will be laughed at for his incompetence, the court knows better than me why there are so many people in Qin State, do you think they have thought about reforming?”
Zhang Liang didn't believe it: "How is it possible..."
"Let's not talk about it, it is impossible for grandfather and father to understand why Qin is strong!"
"Then why..."
"Why?" The man suddenly thought of the key point, "That's right, when your father passed away, you were just a general enlightenment. Apart from your grandfather and your father, the Zhang family didn't have anyone on the stage. There is no one to teach you, and you can't get in touch with the major affairs of the court, so it's only natural that you don't know these things."
He realized that he was also stronger than Zhang Liang, and he became excited: "Why do you ask? Naturally, it is because we are all nobles! The people of Qin are naturally better off than the people of South Korea, but look at Qin The nobles of the country, how can the nobles of South Korea and other countries be at ease? Who would want to live like the nobles of the Qin country if they can live a life of extravagance before? Are you willing?"
Zhang Liang was stunned, his mind went blank.
==·Cracked·==
Zhang Liang was silent for many days after that. Just when his roommate couldn't help worrying and asked the guards outside the door to ask them to find a doctor outside to show Zhang Liang, Lin Qian finally knew that Zhang Liang had been escorted to the prison. News from Xianyang.
Lin Qian couldn't believe it——
【how can that be possible?Obviously before the fall of Qin, there is no record of Zhang Liang coming to Xianyang? 】
[What's more, he was escorted to Xianyang like a prisoner. 】
[He almost succeeded in assassinating Ying Zheng after the unification of the Qin State, which made Ying Zheng furious, and the arrest warrants issued by the whole country failed to catch anyone, how could he be arrested now? 】
She couldn't help but look at Ying Zheng: [I brought the butterfly effect again? 】
Ying Zheng didn't change his face, just pretending that he didn't hear Lin Qian's heartbeat.
Although Zhang Liang almost succeeded in assassinating himself, he almost broke his defense, but fortunately...he was used to it, so he didn't show his flaws.
Lin Qian felt bored.
"...That's how things are." Meng Tian knelt in front of Yingzheng, "Although the elders of Zhang Liang's family have had a good experience, they tried to bribe Lu Wen with money after all to influence the government of our Great Qin Dynasty. Ask about medicine."
[It's a good thing to be sick and die! 】
Ying Zheng paused, then turned to look at Lin Qian: "Madam thinks, what should I do with Zhang Liang?"
【Um? 】
【Why do you ask me this question? 】
Lin Qian glanced at Ying Zheng, and replied cautiously: "I don't understand government affairs, so in order to avoid bad consequences, it's better for Your Majesty to decide for himself."
[Want me to say?Of course I think it is better to keep Zhang Liang, after all, Zhang Liang is one of the three heroes in the early Han Dynasty, and his ability is self-evident.But the problem is that Zhang Liang at this time should still be a young boy, he has not met Huang Shigong, he has never been taught by him, and he has not learned "The Grand Duke's Art of War", so he can only be regarded as a talent...]
Ying Zheng frowned.
"Taigong Art of War", also known as "Six Secret Teachings" and "Taigong Six Secret Teachings", is the chapter "Soldiers" of Huang Lao Taoist's famous classic "Taigong". Therefore, many famous people have learned skills from it, and they are also famous in various countries.
This book is not widely circulated, but it is not uncommon among nobles, but only a very small number of people can learn from it.
But the problem is...
Qin has no shortage of generals.
What the Qin State lacks has always been counselors and capable ministers who can assist the king in fighting and governing the country.
If Zhang Liang is a general, then Ying Zheng has no need to keep him.
He narrowed his eyes and said: "Since Zhang Liangzu's "Fifth Chancellor Han" happened, he should also have something different from ordinary people. During the period of guarding, did the soldiers find anything?"
Meng Tian was stunned for a moment: "I heard that Zhang Liang likes to sit alone in the room in a daze, and occasionally he would try to ask the soldiers to borrow a few books to read, but most of them are... By the way, I heard that the young master helped Su get married. The next day, Zhang Liang had an argument with the person who lived with him, and the two seemed to be arguing violently, and almost fought."
"It was also after that quarrel that Zhang Liang seemed to have lost his soul. He hid in his room dumbfounded and never came out once."
Ying Zheng was curious: "What's the noise?"
Meng Tian seriously recalled for a moment: "The guarding soldiers didn't hear clearly, they could only vaguely distinguish words such as common people, nobles, Qin Kingdom, Six Kingdoms, father, cleverness, reform, and subjugation. Zhang Liang seemed very excited and indignant. On the contrary, the people who live here are quite rogue, and seem to disagree."
People and nobles?Qin and Six Kingdoms?Reform and subjugate the country?
Gee...
This is not something that a military general would consider.
Ying Zheng couldn't help looking at Lin Qian, but he didn't expect this to be a talent.
But how to train and employ people has become a problem.
After all, Zhang Liang seemed to be quite hostile to him, and he didn't have a good impression of Qin, so it was not so easy to use him.
However, Zhang Liang is still young after all, so he can slowly plot...
Ying Zheng thought so at first, but he couldn't stand the group of Korean nobles who liked to help him!
Not many days after this happened, Yingchuan County (Korea) sent a case that Yingzheng had to judge personally——
Because one of them is the former Korean nobleman.
Although the former nobles in South Korea lost their private arms, a large number of slaves and money, most of their lives were not as good as ordinary people, but the concepts and habits cultivated for thousands of years are not so easy to change.
For example, there are still many old nobles who rely on their status and do not treat former slaves and common people as human beings.
During this period, conflicts inevitably arose, which developed into criminal cases.
This case presented to Yingzheng came about because of this: After losing his title and property, an old nobleman still refused to let go of his body to participate in labor, and even spent money lavishly, even the last few jewelry hidden by his wife. He stole it and sold it and spent it all.Then, for the first time, he tasted hunger.
But after this person was hungry, he didn't think about making money to buy food, but thinking about... robbing.
Of course, he himself didn't think it was robbery.
Because the person he robbed was a former slave of his family.
Before a slave is granted civilian status, an individual cannot own private property. All the money he earns, and even himself, is the property of the master.
So the old nobleman robbed and robbed with confidence.
But the other party is naturally unwilling. He is no longer a slave now, and he earned all the money by himself.Moreover, he still has a wife and children to support, how could he be snatched away by the former master who beat and scolded him so often?
Fortunately, the opponent was strong enough to prevent the old aristocrat whose body was hollowed out by wine and sex from being robbed successfully.
But at the same time, this honest man also felt that although he had suffered a lot before, he also
