Chapter 172 Yongcheng! Queen Mother Huayang! Ying Zheng sets off!

The eldest son's mansion!

Wang Wan, Wei Zhuang, and Chun Yuyue beside him all looked unhappy.

What seemed to be a sure thing turned out to be wrong.

"What a pity."

"This is a great opportunity."

"As long as the eldest son is the first among the sons to participate in the political affairs, it will be announced to the court and the world that the son is the future prince."

"But Hu Hai and the Hu family are so competitive."

"It's really hateful." Chun Yuyue said angrily.

"The competition for the crown prince is a competition for life and death."

"Since the Hu family has already put forward Hu Hai to compete, they will naturally fight to the end."

"As Hu Hai's teacher, Zhao Gao serves the king, so he can naturally get the upper hand in everything."

"Hu Hai spoke today, obviously he knew that the king was going to Yongcheng a long time ago." Wang Wan also sighed.

"Today in the court."

"There are quite a few court officials who support Hu Hai."

"What happened in such a short period of time must be prevented." Wei Zhuang said seriously.

"Why are there so many people supporting Hu Hai?"

"Don't the two prime ministers know it?"

"Since Zhao Feng returned to the court, Hu Hai has inexplicably entered the court to discuss politics, and then a large number of court officials supported him."

"Is there nothing wrong with this?" Chun Yuyue said angrily.

The hatred for Zhao Feng in his tone could be heard by everyone here.

"Zhao Feng should not be so stupid to support Hu Hai." Wei Zhuang said slowly.

"Prime Minister Wei."

"The fact is already like this."

"And there are rumors in the court that Zhao Feng supports Hu Hai, and many people have believed it. Many court officials saw Zhao Feng's support, so they turned to support Hu Hai."

"Is there anything wrong with this?" Chun Yuyue frowned.

"In fact, there are indeed signs."

"But Master Chunyu, even if Zhao Feng really supports Hu Hai, this is also closely related to you." Wang Wan said faintly.

Chunyu Yue's face flashed with anger.

"At the beginning, I also wanted the eldest son to win over the Wang family, but I never thought that this boy would have such an experience now."

"At the beginning, the two prime ministers should have suppressed Zhao Feng like me."

"Otherwise, he would not be where he is today." Chunyu Yue also said indignantly.

"He was promoted based on his military merits, not his political achievements. This is not something we can suppress." Wei Zhuang said.

"It's come to this point, there is no need to say more."

"Let's think about how to let the eldest son ascend to the throne of the prince in the future." Wang Wan said.

At this time!

Fusu said with a sad face: "Father, has he never thought of making me the crown prince?"

"No matter when, I thought I could get the recognition of father, but father would always hit me inadvertently."

"Although my eighteenth brother is a few years younger than me, father loves him very much."

Speaking of this.

You can also hear the bitterness in Fusu's words.

"My son."

"You don't need to be sentimental."

"The reason why the king let Hu Hai come to the court may also be a spur to the son."

"If there is no competitor, the training for the son will be much less." Wang Wan immediately comforted.

Every time Fusu was shaken, Wang Wan must stabilize Fusu's mind.

All of them were on Fusu. If Fusu lost, then their whole family would be finished.

"What is father thinking in his heart?"

Fusu sighed faintly.

He felt that his father was indifferent to him and didn't value him that much.

...

Time passed.

Daqin, Yongcheng!

Inside the palace!

A palace courtyard.

Ying Zheng and Queen Mother Huayang sat opposite each other.

"Grandma."

"My grandson hasn't come to visit you for a long time." Ying Zheng smiled slightly and said to Queen Mother Huayang in front of him.

"Zheng'er, you are the king of a country now, so it's naturally different from before."

"Grandma has been here for many years, and I'm used to it." Queen Mother Huayang smiled slightly, with a touch of kindness on her face.

From her beautiful face, you can see how beautiful she was when she was young.

"Grandma, how is she doing recently?"

Ying Zheng asked, with some concern in his eyes.

This kind of closeness can only be shown in front of the relatives he truly trusts.

"Same old."

"Either crazy and quarreling, or quiet."

"Irritability, she is incurable." Queen Mother Huayang shook her head.

"She did stupid things back then, but now she still hates me."

"Haha." Ying Zheng smiled bitterly.

"One thought, one desire."

"She asked for it."

"If it weren't for her being your mother, she would have been torn into pieces long ago."

"Until she got into trouble."

"She even naively thought that she was able to support Lao Ai because of her, not because of your existence, and that the mother's status was based on her son."

"She even thought that her two evil creatures could really seize the throne of my Great Qin." Queen Mother Huayang said slowly.

Even after so many years, she still looked down on Zhao Ji.

Zhao Ji really overestimated the two evil children born to fake eunuchs to seize the throne of the Great Qin.

Without the blood of the Qin royal family, even if they really seized Xianyang, they would eventually be suppressed by countless Qin warriors.

Blood is crucial!

"Let's not talk about her."

"The Queen Mother has lived in Yongcheng for these years. Do you have any requests?" Ying Zheng asked with a smile.

"Grandmother is already old, what else can I ask for?"

"As long as there is peace in the future, that's enough."

"If I could see you unify the world with my own eyes, Zheng'er, and create the unfinished great cause of the ancestors and kings of the Qin Dynasty." The Queen Mother Huayang said with a smile.

"Grandmother, don't worry."

"You will definitely see it."

"Now there are only four countries in the world."

"Wait until the middle of this year, I will start the conquest of Wei."

"It's not difficult to destroy Wei." Ying Zheng smiled confidently.

Huayang looked at Ying Zheng steadily, and then a smile of emotion appeared on her face: "Looking back to the beginning, when you were appointed as the heir, my grandmother was still somewhat opposed, thinking of appointing Cheng Jiao, but now time has proved that Cheng Jiao is far inferior to you."

"I said at the beginning that if Cheng Jiao could honor my grandmother, I could too."

"It's just that I can't control Cheng Jiao's death."

When mentioning Cheng Jiao, Ying Zheng's eyes also flashed with a trace of shame.

"Although his death was calculated by others, he died because he didn't know himself."

"You can't blame others for this." Queen Mother Huayang shook her head.

Ying Zheng didn't say anything more.

In the end.

Cheng Jiao still thought too much about himself, and thought too well.

That's why he fell into the whole trap.

At that time.

Many people in the court wanted him to die.

"Zheng'er."

"Didn't Fusu meet your requirements?" Queen Mother Huayang turned her eyes and suddenly asked.

Hearing this.

Ying Zheng turned his head and looked at Queen Mother Huayang: "Why does grandma ask this?"

"Although grandma lives in Yongcheng and doesn't care about any government affairs, let alone anything in Xianyang."

"But even if grandma doesn't listen to many things, someone will naturally pass on the news." Queen Mother Huayang sighed.

"The matter of the crown prince is related to the future of Daqin."

"Now my grandson is still very young, so there is no rush."

"Grandma doesn't need to listen too much or think too much in Yongcheng." Ying Zheng smiled faintly.

Queen Mother Huayang was stunned, and then smiled and nodded: "Indeed, grandma is talking too much."

Queen Mother Huayang has experienced four dynasties. She married into the royal family of Daqin since King Zhaoxiang, then her husband, and then Ying Zheng's father.

She has experienced too much.

The reason why she can be safe now is that she doesn't care about anything.

The reason why she mentioned it today.

Maybe it's because of her Mi family, otherwise she really wouldn't open her mouth to test.

"Zheng'er."

"Are you still obsessed with that girl?"

The Queen Mother Huayang looked at Ying Zheng with some kindness.

If the previous question had a purpose, then this time there was really no purpose, just caring about her grandson.

"I will find her."

"If I say who I feel most guilty about in this world, it is undoubtedly her." Ying Zheng smiled bitterly.

"Alas."

"What happened back then was also done by your mother and the ministers of the royal family."

"You can't blame me at that time."

"Internal and external troubles, and a mother who was blinded by eunuchs." The Queen Mother Huayang also smiled bitterly.

"Yes."

"I didn't expect them to be so cruel." Ying Zheng said slowly.

"How can they not be ruthless for that position?"

"In the final analysis."

"That position of queen brings too many consequences. Although the girl is a good person, her family background is not good after all, so there are too many obstacles naturally."

"Like your mother back then, in the final analysis, she was honored by her son, because of you, she could become the queen mother."

"If it weren't for you, Zheng'er, she might be a concubine at most." Queen Mother Huayang said with emotion.

Ying Zheng smiled: "It's useless."

"Zheng'er." Queen Mother Huayang stared at Ying Zheng: "Grandmother asks you a question."

"Grandmother, you say." Ying Zheng smiled.

"If one day you really find that girl, will you make her the queen?" Queen Mother Huayang asked very curiously.

"Yes." Ying Zheng replied without hesitation: "That position was originally hers, and it can only be her. Apart from her, no one in the harem can match it."

Hearing this.

Queen Mother Huayang also nodded as expected.

"Grandmother is too talkative."

"A friendship of life and death." Queen Mother Huayang smiled slightly.

...

Grandparents and grandchildren.

They talked for a long time.

In the evening.

After the two of them had dinner together, they returned to the palace.

Although Ying Zheng had not lived in the Yongcheng Palace for a long time, he was still very familiar with it.

"Alas."

"It seems that the position of queen is not hers after all."

"Fusu, Mi Xi."

"I have helped you enough. You can handle the future matters by yourselves."

"I will not care anymore."

In the deep palace, Queen Mother Huayang thought secretly.

And at this moment.

"My king, everything is ready."

"Just wait for departure."

"From Yongcheng, it will take one day and one night to reach Shaqiu." Dun Ruo appeared in the palace and reported respectfully.

At this moment, Ying Zheng had changed his royal robe into a black robe, and the crown he was wearing had also become an ordinary hair crown.

It’s been a long time.

He has never worn such ordinary fine clothes.

"Ren Xiao." Ying Zheng shouted.

echoed.

Ren Xiao walked in quickly.

"Please give me your orders, Your Majesty." Ren Xiao bowed respectfully.

"Tomorrow, you will lead a thousand imperial guardsmen to Yongshan Mountain with Luan Jia, and tell the public that you are going to Yongshan Mountain to hunt." Ying Zheng said solemnly.

"I understand." Ren Xiao responded without any hesitation.

"If anyone comes looking for you, call them all back, and tell me that I want to stay clean in Yongshan for a few days." Ying Zheng looked at Ren Xiao and continued to explain.

"I understand." Ren Xiao naturally nodded immediately.

As the commander of King Qin's bodyguard, Ren Xiao could understand the seriousness of the matter at this moment when he received such a serious explanation from King Qin. If this matter could not be handled well, it would be a huge disappointment to Ying Zheng.

The reason for this explanation.

So comprehensive.

It comes down to it.

Ying Zheng still did it for Xia Donger.

Now that things have not been clarified, everything needs to be done with caution. Furthermore, Ying Zheng doesn't want to let Xia Donger escape again. He really doesn't want to lose her again.

"Walk."

After everything was explained, Ying Zheng said to Dun Rui.

"promise."

Immediately lead the way.

There were already a hundred dark warriors waiting at the back door of the palace, and each one was equipped with a war horse, and each one carried enough crossbows and swords.

Well equipped.

And each of them is the elite of the Black Ice Platform, and a hundred people are enough to deal with a thousand troops.

In the realm of Da Qin, it is absolutely impossible to mobilize thousands of troops without orders.

As Ying Zheng came on horseback, all the secret soldiers got on their horses, left the Yongcheng Palace, and headed towards the distant Shaqiu County.

However, all this is unknown.

One night flies by in an instant.

Inside the Yongcheng Palace.

Under the protection of thousands of imperial guards, King Luan of Qin headed towards Yongshan Mountain outside Yongcheng in a high-profile manner, and also brought various hunting equipment.

"Queen Mother."

"The king went to Yongshan to hunt early in the morning."

"You cannot dine with the Queen Mother."

A palace maid respectfully came to the Queen Mother Huayang and reported.

"kindness."

"Your Majesty told me yesterday." Queen Mother Huayang nodded without any surprise.

Ying Zheng has always lived in Xianyang and rarely goes out to relax. Now that he has come to Yongcheng, he also has a sense of relaxation, and the Queen Mother Huayang can naturally see it.

"Pass the order."

"If there is nothing particularly important, please don't disturb the king."

"It's rare for Your Majesty to relax for a moment. No one is allowed to disturb you." Queen Mother Huayang immediately explained.

"My servant will go and explain immediately." The accompanying palace maid immediately replied.

…

Dune County!

Sand Village.

Everything is business as usual.

Now is the time for farming, and many villagers in Sha Village are working in the fields with their families.

Although her son is now a general and owns many fields, Zhao has never abandoned the two acres of land that once supported her family of three. Now when farming, Zhao also works in the fields.

The only difference is that there are many guards and servants around.

Obviously.

Seeing Zhao in this state, no one could persuade her to give up.

…
