After listening to the words of the Empress Dowager Zhao Ji, Lu Buwei didn't react much, what she said was something that the officials of the Qin State court understood in their hearts, and it was not a strange thing to say it clearly in her mouth now.

"What the Queen Mother said is just for the sake of my Great Qin's Qianqiu Guozuo, with the current status of the Prime Minister, even if it is a rapid retreat, or a further step, it is not much help in the current status of the Prime Minister. On the contrary, if Benxiang does not return the rights to the king, first, he will be ashamed of the kindness of the previous king, and secondly, Lü Buwei was originally a businessman, and Benxiang does not want to be a power traitor in the eyes of the world. Lu Buwei said, although what he said was not what he really thought in his heart, but what he said was indeed true.

The Queen Mother sat in front of Lü Buwei, the floor in the hall was paved with good wood on the Qin floor, and everyone took off their shoes and boots when walking in the palace, so the floor was very clean. Zhao Ji poured a full glass of wine for Lu Buwei with her own hands, and then raised her hands for Lu Buwei to drink.

Lü Buwei naturally didn't dare to forget about this old lover in the temple, so he had to take it with both hands and drink it all. "I thank the Queen Mother for giving wine. ”

Zhao Ji rested one arm on the table, and then leaned forward, half of her whole body supported on the table. The beautiful eyes were wandering, looking at Lu Buwei, "Why is Xiangye so indifferent to the mourning family, the mourning family has been looking forward to Xiangye for a long time in the harem." ”

"The Queen Mother is noble, and she doesn't dare to offend. As for the previous matter, I hope that the Queen Mother can be Haihan, and the Prime Minister is willing to serve the Queen Mother. Lu Buwei was afraid that the Empress Dowager Zhao Ji would threaten him with the matter between him and before, although now that he has all the power in his hands, he doesn't need to be so hypocritical, he still doesn't want to break up like this.

Zhao Ji snorted coldly, left Lu Buwei's table, and continued to return to his seat and sit down.

Seeing that Zhao Ji was a little angry, Lu Buwei said: "Queen Mother, the Prime Minister and the Queen Mother did have some intimate actions back then, but the Prime Minister is now the Xiangguo of the Qin State, and the Queen Mother is the queen mother of the king, and both of us are the two people that the king needs to rely on the most." Now the relationship between the king and the queen mother is not harmonious, and the prime minister has become a fire and water situation, so the prime minister specially came to the queen mother this time to discuss this joint action, you must know that no matter who you and I lose power, the result is the result of the death of the lips and teeth, I hope the queen mother will know. ”

Zhao Ji looked at Lu Buwei, thinking that it was this person who rescued himself and the young Ying Zheng from Handan of Zhao State back to Qin State, and supported Ying Zheng to become the king, and did not choose to support Ying Zheng's younger brother Cheng from the Qin royal family, so he had today's status. 's heart also softened, not to mention that there is now another one between himself and him, Zhao Ji is still thinking about Lu Buwei, the first man who makes him tempted.

Zhao Ji thought about it so much, and at the same time understood that what Lu Buwei said was the truth, she said: "The mourning family naturally knows this, since the Xiangye came to the door to mourn the family."

Cooperate with you, and the mourning family will naturally not shirk. I hope that Lu Xiangye can do what he said, we are a relationship between lips and teeth, and if there is anything that the mourning family needs to help Xiangye live in the future, I hope Xiangye can help. ”

"It's nature. In this case, then it is decided, when the king gets married, when the queen mother and the prime minister discuss the king's pro-government, how about the time when the king is young and postpones the pro-government?"

The Queen Mother raised the wine glass in front of her, "Just according to what Xiangye said." The two of them raised their glasses at the same time.

Sending Lu Buwei away and walking into the palace, he walked directly to the side of the Queen Mother, and saw that there was no one else in the palace, so he sat directly beside the Queen Mother.

"What is Lu Buwei looking for you for?" asked Zhao Ji directly.

Zhao Ji leaned lightly on the shoulder, looked at the side of the face and said coquettishly: "Guess." ”

Picked up the wine glass that Zhao Ji had drunk and drank the wine that Zhao Ji had not finished drinking, then kissed Zhao Ji's forehead and asked, "Tell me quickly, what is Lu Buwei, an old immortal, coming to you for?"

Zhao Ji left the shoulder, tidied up his clothes, and said, "You are so uninteresting, you are like a dead person in bed." Lu Buwei is only in his forties, how can he become an old immortal in your mouth? I think you are jealous. ”

grabbed Zhao Ji's jade hand and held it in his hand, and said softly: "I'm just jealous, Ji'er, you know that one of my hearts is in you, and I can't see other men currying favor with you, is this also a mistake?"

Zhao Ji pulled his hand out of his hand and stood up from the couch, "The mourning family naturally knows that a heart of the mourning family is also on you. Saying that, Zhao Ji touched her slightly bulging lower abdomen and said, "And our children." This time, Lü Buwei came to find the mourning family for our future. ”

looked at Zhao Ji and asked, "What do you say? Lu Buwei Hui'an has such a good heart?"

"Do you think anyone is as cautious as you?" Zhao Ji said as she walked towards the harem, "Let's go, the mourning family's body is tired, press the body for the mourning family." ”

got up and chased after Zhao Ji, and the two went to the harem together, "Ji'er, you haven't told me what Lu Buwei came to you for?"

After Zhao Ji fell asleep at night, he lay beside Zhao Ji and looked at the roof in a daze, thinking about what Zhao Ji said to him during the day.

According to Zhao Ji, Lü Buwei did not want to hand over the power in his hands, but the right to delay the time of King Yingzheng of Qin was in the hands of the Empress Dowager Zhao Ji. As long as Zhao Ji speaks, coupled with the fact that a group of ministers of the Qin State are behind Lü Buwei to build momentum for Lü Buwei, Yingzheng is bound to play pro-government for two years. But in the final analysis, Yingzheng will eventually have to be pro-government, and once he is pro-government, then the affairs of himself and the Queen Mother will inevitably be leaked

Go out, even if such a royal scandal will not be in the light of day, then Yingzheng will definitely not let go of himself, as well as his own children. Zhao Ji is Ying Zheng's mother, Ying Zheng will never dare to attack his biological mother, so what about himself?

Thinking of this, he sat up from the bed suddenly, and Zhao Ji next to him suddenly caught a cold and squirmed. got out of bed cautiously, then covered the quilt for Zhao Ji, and walked out of his and Zhao Ji's dormitory with his shoes on. He walked to the door, opened it and walked out of the palace, walked to a secluded place and tapped his palm three times.

Not long after the applause, a man dressed as a guard appeared behind him.

Turning to look at this cronie who he had picked up with one hand, he said, "You go to Lu Buwei tomorrow and ask him to be in the drunken Xiangyu in Yongcheng, I have something to discuss with him." ”

"Yes. The guard said.

continued: "By the way, how many people do we have in the Yongcheng Palace now?"

The guard thought for a moment and then said, "My lord, we have more than 200 chamberlains in the Qin Palace, and there are less than 50 people in the forbidden army. This time, there are only 100 attendants who came to Yongcheng with the adults and the queen mother, and in the past two days, the villain has attracted dozens of people in the guards of the Yongcheng palace to be our internal response, but the loyalty is still uncertain. ”

nodded, this kind of result is not very good, but it is okay, just to implement the plan in your heart. He continued: "I know, in two days I will have an action, these people will use it first, first promise them gold and silver, and when I have succeeded in my plan, I will reward you with another heavy reward." ”

"The villain obeyed. ”

Standing in the silent and uninhabited backyard of the deep palace, looking at the bright moon in the sky covered by dark clouds, he secretly said in his heart: Yingzheng, Lu Buwei, one day, I will make you all surrender to me, let's see! I will never let anyone control my fate.

On the morning of the second day, the Empress Dowager Zhao Ji fell asleep, then changed into civilian clothes and left the palace, and took a carriage to leave the old palace of Yongcheng and go to the drunken Xiangyu restaurant in Yongcheng.

Lü Buwei's foothold in Yongcheng is Zui Xiangyu, he told Ying Zheng for two days of sick leave, this morning he received news from his subordinates, saying that the Queen Mother wanted to see him, and made an appointment with Zui Xiangyu. Lu Buwei already knows his intentions to see himself, since he took the initiative to come to the door, then he will see what this former chess piece can say.

"My lord, please, Lord Xiangguo is waiting for you in the private room on the third floor. Seeing him come in, the shopkeeper of Yongcheng Drunken Xiangyu hurriedly greeted him and said. Drunken Xiangyu was closed for a day today, firstly, so that Lu Buwei's whereabouts would not be revealed, and secondly, he came to come. After all, these two people are still relatively conspicuous in Yongcheng, where the Qin royal family and clansmen gather.
