[Comprehensive] Empress Variations

Ying Zheng could hear the confidence in Lu Buwei's words, and Lu Buwei was indeed very confident, and he also had the capital of self-confidence.

Today's Qin State is not so much the Qin State that he won the government, but rather the Qin State of Lu Buwei.Lu Buwei probably only lacks the title of King Qin.

He should be thankful that he has the blood of the Qin royal family on his body.If it weren't for the blood of this orthodox royal family, he would not be able to be on the throne now.

Lu Buwei's footsteps gradually faded away, and then the door of the study was closed.He was alone in the room again, along with the two animals.

Ying Zheng secretly cultivated his own power after he ascended the throne, but that power is still very weak compared with Lu Buwei.If he rashly showed his hole cards and waited for his result, it would not be much better than his father, Qin Zichu.

Do you really want to let it go?Is he willing?Ying Zheng stroked the rabbit's fur more and more gently, lowering his eyes slightly. "Come on!"

"Your Majesty, what are your orders?" The guard Yue Kang opened the door and walked in. He lowered his head as before, very cautiously.Occasionally, he looked up at Ying Zheng, and then quickly lowered his head again.King Qin is not in a good mood every time he gets along with Lu Buwei, it can even be said to be very bad, he can only be cautious and cautious at this time.

"The widow will stay in the study room for a while today. You have someone prepare some supper." Ying Zheng sat back behind the desk and reopened the rolled up book on the desk.

"Yes!" Yue Kang responded quickly.His Majesty is really in a bad mood, and his daily routine in the past couldn't have been more regular.It seems that his life has already had a framework, and he implemented it step by step according to the framework he made.Now, he broke this framework by himself.

As soon as Yue Kang left, another well-dressed guard entered the room.However, the first of the two was cautious.This later one, less discreet, was more serious. "Your Majesty, what are your orders?"

"Send a word to my grandmother, she must also be very concerned about the lifelong affairs of the widow." Ying Zheng held the rabbit in his arms, and never took his eyes off it.

"I understand." Feng Cheng raised his head and glanced at Ying Zheng, his eyes were burning hot.In the early years, they chose to follow Ying Zheng to maintain the orthodoxy of the royal family and not want their relatives to monopolize power.After Ying Zheng deliberately showed them some talent, they became more and more concerned about these talents.

However, the emperor has been on the throne for three years now.In addition to allowing them to develop their power secretly, he himself seems to be willing to be Lu Buwei's puppet, and he is very submissive on the surface.Such an emperor really made them feel uneasy.

Simply, today His Majesty finally began to resist Lu Buwei.Using Chu's relatives to confront Lu Buwei is really the best way.In the future, His Majesty only needs to maintain the balance between the two, so as not to let either of the two become too powerful to threaten the throne.He secretly speeds up the pace of developing his power, and in the future this Qin country will truly belong to His Majesty.

Ying Zheng watched Fengcheng disappear, but there was no joy on his face.Whether it's Zhao Wang's daughter or Chu Wang's daughter, to him, it doesn't make any difference.However, now that Princess Chu is allowed to enter the palace, even if Yan'er enters the palace in the future, she will not have the embarrassment of sisters serving her husband.

Ying Zheng could guess what Fengcheng was thinking just now, even if he didn't raise his head, he could feel the eager gaze.The Queen of Chu did help him in his great cause.It's just that this time, he really thought about his personal relationship first, and then his great cause.

"Your Majesty, supper is ready, do you want some now?!" Yue Kang asked outside the door.

"Bring it in." Ying Zheng said.

Yue Kang walked in and put the midnight snack on the small table beside him. "Your Majesty, what other orders do you have?"

"Go find someone to investigate the princess of the Zhao Kingdom, and I will investigate it for you." When Ying Zheng said this, there was a twinge of urgency in his eyes, but he tried his best to make his tone as calm as possible. Wave.

"Your Majesty, you want to investigate the princess of Zhao State?" Yue Kang has been with Ying Zheng for a while, but he has never found out that His Majesty has confidence in any woman.His memory is still stuck in the scene where a court lady seduced His Majesty, but she was dragged out and beat the board.That palace lady lost half her life directly.

Now that His Majesty is suddenly inquiring about a woman, and it is a woman far away in another country, how could he not be surprised.

"Lu Xiang said that the widow has reached the age when she should start a family, and she looks very nice to the daughter of King Zhao." Ying Zheng's eyes were obviously sharp, and the displeasure in those eyes could be seen by any normal person come out. "You have to investigate carefully, and make it clear to the widow."

"Yes!" Yue Kang knew the reason for His Majesty's abnormality when he heard Lu Xiang.He was a little annoyed that he was talking too much, and he could just do the task that His Majesty arranged.He had to ask one more question, knowing more would not do him any good!

"Go! Present the results of the investigation to the widow as soon as possible." Ying Zheng waved his hand to Yue Kang.

"Yes." Yue Kang exited the study, closed the door, and wiped the sweat off his forehead involuntarily.

The princess of Zhao State?State of Zhao... Lu Xiang really wanted to control the entire State of Qin by himself.It seems that His Majesty is in danger this time!He must investigate carefully. It would be great if the other party is a gentle and virtuous woman.

Yue Kang had just walked a few steps before stopping.As far as he knows, King Zhao seems to have more than one princess.Then, which one did His Majesty ask him to investigate?He turned his head and glanced at the study room, with a bit of helplessness in his eyes.

At this time, His Majesty was obviously in a displeased mood. If he went back to ask the last question, he wondered if this little life could be saved.Yuekang hurriedly continued to walk forward, and the speed was much faster.

His Majesty asked him to investigate the princes and daughters of Zhao State, so it would be better to spend more effort to have all the princes and daughters investigated.Although this would obviously make his work aggravated, it would not cause him to lose his life.

Watching Yuekang leave the study, Yingzheng looked down at the carefree rabbit lying on his lap.Here he was thinking hard about how the two would reunite, and she was probably resting without knowing anything at this moment.

Ying Zheng couldn't help but reached out and touched the tip of the rabbit's nose. Seeing its ears move, his complexion eased a little.This is exactly what he expected, let him bear everything, and then hold up a sky for her.

Didn't Ying Zheng know that he only mentioned the princess, but didn't say which princess it was?Of course he knew, and he did it on purpose.

Yue Kang was extraordinarily cautious, even timid.From Yingzheng becoming the prince to now, he has never returned to Yingzheng, but he will not favor Lu Buwei either.Always keep yourself in a neutral stance, lest you will lose your life if you lean towards one side.

Ying Zheng's gaze was very sharp just now, and his momentum was extremely strong.In addition, Yue Kang had a preconceived idea that Ying Zheng was because of Lu Buwei, so he was still angry.Under such circumstances, Yuekang was unwilling to stay in front of Ying Zheng for too long, and as soon as Ying Zheng urged him, he withdrew.

After Yue Kang went out, he would never come back.If he wanted to fulfill Ying Zheng's order, he could only investigate the daughters of King Zhao who were of the right age, or even all the daughters of King Zhao.Of the two, he is more likely to choose the latter directly.

If Yan'er is really Zhao Guo's princess, then there must be her information in this investigation.If she was a nobleman's daughter, he had to think of other ways.

Ying Zheng felt that Yan'er was more likely to be the princess.It is normal for a princess to occasionally live in the other courtyard of King Zhao. Even if the noble lady likes King Zhao or a certain wife, she will be summoned to the palace instead of the other courtyard.This possibility is very small, but it has not been completely abandoned by Ying Zheng.

The rabbit might feel itchy on the tip of its nose, so it took the initiative to rub Ying Zheng's palm.Seeing the rabbit's movements, Ying Zheng couldn't help but wonder what Yan'er would do if he wanted to please him?Thinking of the short time they spent together, she probably would just follow him quietly.

That's actually enough.He is not greedy, it's just that between the two of them, even the seemingly simple company seems extravagant.

The door of the study was knocked again, and Ying Zheng took his hand away from the rabbit.He pulled the book in front of him forward, "Come in."

Feng Cheng looked up, and sure enough, he saw Ying Zheng reading a book again.In their hearts, His Majesty is really a man of knowledge and talents, he can talk about many aspects, and it is not superficial.It is only natural that they are willing to sacrifice their lives for such an emperor. "Your Majesty, I have made arrangements for what you have told me."

"I see, step back." Ying Zheng rolled up the book in front of him, and picked up the silk cloth that was put aside.He tried to write something on it several times, but he gave up.He couldn't let Yan'er know about many things, and he couldn't make her worry about him.

Every time, he obviously had a lot to say, but in the end he would only write about what books he read today, or what interesting things happened when he practiced archery.Between the lines, he did not reveal his identity at all.

Maybe now in Yan'er's eyes, he is still the kid who lived in the countryside back then.At first, Yan'er was not allowed to know his identity, just because he didn't want the book written by her herself to disappear. Afterwards, his situation became worse and worse, and he never wanted to become unable.

Tie the written silk cloth to the eagle's claws and watch the eagle soar high.He didn't close the window until he could no longer see the eagle's shadow clearly.

Go directly to the inner room of the study to rest. Compared with the bedroom, Ying Zheng spends more time resting here.Here, of course, nothing will be missing.

……

"Your Majesty, I have something to report." Yue Kang respectfully saluted Ying Zheng.

"But Princess Zhao has finished her investigation?" Ying Zheng looked up at Yue Kang.

"Please allow a few more days, Your Majesty." Yue Kang could see that Ying Zheng attached great importance to King Zhao's daughter, and he didn't know whether to be happy or sad.

Should he be happy that Ying Zheng entrusted him with such a matter?This is how much the emperor attaches importance to him!However, if you want to investigate a princess, in the past few days, you can investigate almost all of them.However, he is not alone in his investigation.

Even if he sent out people, it was many times more than when investigating one person.Now, but really did not get a clear answer.He dared not submit incomplete information to Ying Zheng.If Yingzheng wanted to investigate the princess, those people just didn't finish the investigation?At that time, he really is not far from death.

"Since there is no result of the investigation, what do you have to report?!" Ying Zheng frowned slightly.

"Returning to Your Majesty, I am sending a letter on behalf of Mrs. Huayang. Madam asked me to deliver this letter to Your Majesty with my own hands." Yue Kang held the rolled up silk cloth in both hands and presented it to Ying Zheng.

Ying Zheng reached out to pick up the silk cloth. It was no secret that he had some books written on silk cloth in his study.Afterwards, many people would write on silk cloth when they expressed their affection to him, the King of Qin.How would they know that he didn't care about what to write with.It's not Yan'er's notes, no matter how you write them, it won't move him.

Opening the silk cloth, he quickly read the contents inside, and his hands tightened slightly on the silk cloth.The silk cloth is really soft, he used such a lot of strength, but only left a relatively shallow mark on it.

Yue Kang hurriedly lowered his head, Lu Xiang had just arranged for Princess Zhao, and Madam Huayang couldn't wait to put Princess Chu in front of His Majesty.Although His Majesty is sitting on the throne, there are too many involuntary things.

"Did grandma ask you to bring anything?" Ying Zheng read the content of the letter, and he already knew what Mrs. Huayang meant.As early as a few days ago, he sent a letter to Mrs. Huayang, but Mrs. Huayang did not come to find him immediately.

Unexpectedly, she would arrange for the daughter of King Chu to come to Qin.Mrs. Huayang wanted him to spend a few days with that Princess Chu.A woman who only saw a few words in the survey data, and a woman who had been together for a few days.Most people will lean towards the latter.

In the past few days, if Princess Chu wanted to come here, she would definitely have to hurry to come here, and it must have taken a lot of effort.Getting along or not getting along is no different for him.However, it is indeed better to do a full set of acting.

"Madame Huayang said that she hasn't seen His Majesty for a long time since the late king passed away, and she misses His Majesty very much. I hope that Your Majesty can visit her in person." Yue Kang said cautiously.

Where is Madam Huayang missing His Majesty? !If you really miss her, Madam Huayang will come directly to see His Majesty, and there is no one in the palace who is not good-looking and will stop her.

However, it is impossible for Madam Huayang to bring Princess Chu to see His Majesty, after all, she has to worry about Princess Chu's reputation.Now, the Queen of Zhao and the Queen of Chu let His Majesty choose one of them. If the Queen of Chu loses her reputation, His Majesty will choose the Queen of Zhao again.Mrs. Huayang is not easy to explain to the king of Chu.

"The widow will go there for a walk today." Ying Zheng got up holding the rabbit, and the rabbit had never left his side except for the morning court.

Yue Kang followed closely behind Ying Zheng, just like usual.

Ying Zheng had just taken two steps before stopping. "You don't have to follow, go and investigate Princess Zhao. If you find out the results of the investigation, report it as soon as possible."

"Yes!" Yue Kang responded quickly.His Majesty gets along with the Queen of Chu, so it is really not suitable for him to follow closely behind him.

There was no Yuekang behind Yingzheng, so naturally there were other guards.Arriving at Mrs. Huayang's residence, Mrs. Huayang also brought everyone to greet her very formally.Among them, there is a very "coincidence" to visit Mrs. Huayang's Princess Chu.

As soon as Ying Zheng took his seat, someone passed on the message. "Your Majesty, madam, please see Yue Kang."

Mrs. Huayang couldn't help but glanced at Ying Zheng. Almost everyone knew that Yue Kang was Ying Zheng's personal bodyguard.Yuekang didn't follow Yingzheng today, he was still a little surprised.As a result, as soon as Ying Zheng sat down, there was a message from here, which made her wonder if it was arranged by Ying Zheng.

"Please forgive me, grandma. A few days ago, the widow asked Yuekang to investigate some things, and today I should have the answer by chance." Ying Zheng confessed to Mrs. Huayang.

Investigated something?Mrs. Huayang naturally knew that Yingzheng had arranged for Yue Kang to investigate Princess Zhao, and that was why she sent a letter to Yue Kang.He wanted to slow down the speed of his investigation and let Princess Chu spend a few more days with Ying Zheng.Yingzheng's orders to Yuekang were also ambiguous. It was normal for him to investigate all the princesses at a slower pace.

Unexpectedly, Yuekang was not very courageous, but his work efficiency was not bad.Unexpectedly, the matter was investigated so quickly, and it was such a coincidence to report at this time.

Mrs. Huayang was a little depressed, although she knew it, she couldn't show it.She looked at Princess Chu's shy face, then at Ying Zheng's expressionless face.She knew that today's goal might not be achieved.You can only plan for other opportunities.

"Since Zheng'er has something to deal with, grandma won't keep you any longer." Mrs. Huayang's words seemed very kind.

"Grandson resigns." Ying Zheng didn't care about these face-saving actions.He never glanced at Princess Chu from the beginning to the end, he really just came to visit Princess Huayang.

"Your Majesty, the matter you asked me to investigate has come to fruition." Yue Kang had just returned and heard the report from the people below.He originally thought that the investigation would not come out so quickly, but the investigation by his subordinates went surprisingly smoothly.And it just happened to be at this time that the investigation was completed.However, because Ying Zheng emphasized that he must report immediately, he dared not delay.

"You did a good job." Ying Zheng glanced at the information Yue Kang was holding in his hands, and he continued to move forward. "Go to the study."

Although there are not many people under him, they are unambiguous in their work.Although he couldn't obviously intervene in Yue Kang's investigation of Zhao Guo, it was still possible to send someone to see when the investigation of those under him was over.Yuekang probably didn't expect that Mrs. Huayang just found a reason to push him away.On the back foot, his subordinates came to report that the investigation had been completed.

Many coincidences are not coincidences, but intentional.

Yue Kang didn't have the ability to investigate so many people in a short period of time, but Lu Buwei did.His actions made Mrs. Huayang unable to sit still, and Mrs. Huayang's actions also affected him.Lu Buwei's strength in Zhao State was not weak, and with his help, the news naturally spread quickly.

Moreover, Ying Zheng believed that the information about Zhao Ying he got in his hands must be good.Lu Buwei has many ways to cover up her bad side.Simply, what he wanted to see was not Zhao Ying.

Yue Kang heaved a sigh of relief, it was good that he acted according to His Majesty's order.Following Ying Zheng's footsteps, he walked into the study.

"Your Majesty, these are the documents of all the princes and daughters of the Zhao Kingdom." Yue Kang put the documents on the desk, and took a step back.

Yingzheng controlled his urge to rummage immediately, and he looked up at Yuekang. "You step back first."

"Yes." Yue Kang didn't ask any further questions, he directly exited the door and stood guard outside.

Almost as soon as the door closed, Ying Zheng picked up the materials.He didn't look a little bit, but searched very purposefully.

When he saw the name Zhao Yan, he stopped his rummaging, pulled out the page of information, and examined it carefully.

The Zhao Yan in the data was born to Mrs. Gao who was favored by King Zhao at that time.His Yan'er's exquisite clothes back then could also tell that she was living a good life.Seeing that Mrs. Gao would take Zhao Yan to another courtyard for a short period of time every year, his heart beat even faster.

After confirming the time when Zhao Yan went to live in another courtyard when he was four years old, he also confirmed that the person on the information was the one he was looking for.He didn't lose interest in the subsequent materials, on the contrary, he read them more seriously.He wanted to know why Mrs. Gao went to live in another courtyard "every year", but Zhao Yan didn't show up there in the second year.

Gao was thrown into limbo, and then passed away.In the information, it is written in detail that the reason for Gao's relegation and death is "stealing people"!

The reason why King Zhao put Gao into the cold palace was because she murdered the princess, and there are some things in the palace that cannot be seen on the surface.If it was just to murder the princess, how could King Zhao have dealt with all the people serving Gao Shi.

Sometimes people in it are blinded by a leaf, and many people have heard some rumors about the Gao's other courtyard.The people they investigated were very conscientious and wrote down all the investigations.

Lu Buwei wished that Zhao Ying would be more perfect if the other Zhao princesses were unsightly.Therefore, this section of information is terrifyingly detailed.

When Ying Zheng saw this passage, his complexion became visibly chilled.Zhao Ji has done the same thing as Gao's, and is still doing it now. He can understand Zhao Yan's mood very well.What he hated was that he wasn't by her side when Zhao Yan was going through this.

During that time, he even felt that Zhao Yan would never appear in his life again.However, it didn't take long for Ying to take the books she had copied and sent them to him.

He never knew that Zhao Yan trained the eagle under such a situation.I can't even imagine what kind of mood she was in at that time, copying books for him...

In the royal family, without the protection of the biological mother, the father disgusted him very much.One can imagine what Zhao Yan's life is like.She has been living on some things left by the Gao family, and she doesn't even know where the future is going.The entire palace treated her as a transparent person.

Under such circumstances, she still used silk cloth to copy books for him.The quality of the fabric was no worse than in the past.Yan'er probably didn't want him to worry, so naturally she didn't want to show any traces.

It seems that since then, Yan'er's writing has become smaller and smaller.He only thinks that Yan'er's handwriting is getting better and better, so more words can be written on a piece of silk.How could he have thought that all of this was just forced by the situation.

After he returned to the palace, he obviously didn't need those books anymore, but he didn't want Yan'er to stop.So he didn't give Yan'er any information, but just happily put away those silk cloths.It never even occurred to him to ask Eagle to bring her some blank silk.I just don't think she will lack these...

Over the years, Yan'er's life has become more and more difficult. The culprit is not only her unclean mother and cold-hearted father, but also him.

He still increases his burden in the name of liking, even love.Ying Zheng closed his eyes, feeling tired for the first time in history, as if all the strength in his body had been directly drained.He didn't feel it when facing Lu Buwei, but now he feels it.

He thought that he had done a good job, he thought that he would be the most important person in Yan'er's life and the best person to him.As a result, she may have successfully become her most important person now.All along, but not the best for her.

Everything he is doing now seems to be less considerate than a court lady next to Yan'er.But he is constantly asking for warmth and motivation from her.

After a long time, Ying Zheng opened his eyes.He was wrong for a long time, and it will take a longer time to make up for it later.Yan'er has endured so much suffering, and she should be filled with more beautiful memories.

I couldn't wait to do something to prove myself, but after returning to reality, I realized that I was powerless at all.No matter what you want to do, it seems that the time is not right.If you do it forcefully, it will only make Yan'er fall into a more difficult situation.

Ying Zheng's eyes are rare and vulnerable, not only can't let Yan'er come to him now, he even plans to marry another woman.Even if she is the only one in my heart, is it a kind of disappointment to her?He knew that even if Zhao Yan didn't care, it would be a kind of torture for himself.

However, some things still have to be done!Ying Zheng rubbed Zhao Yan's name with his hand, and the temperature of his fingertips made him feel as if he had touched the person he was thinking of.He is somewhat fortunate now that Yan'er still doesn't know his identity.So he can still bear everything by himself, and when the two meet each other one day, everything must have been settled.
