Half a month has passed, in this half month, due to the laissez-faire of Yingzheng and Lu Buwei, and even secretly fueling the troubles, in Xianyang City is even more unscrupulous, first in Xianyang City to buy a house, and then in the newly purchased village to feast on the dignitaries and nobles in Xianyang City. In the past half a month, there has been a lot of traffic in front of the Changxin Marquis' Mansion, and officials and people have been coming in and out in an endless stream, and they are all about to catch up with the drunken Xiangyu.

Ying Zheng ignored this, and only went to the palace to meet Ying Zheng once after purchasing the house. Although he is the inner servant of the Queen Mother, now that he has the position of marquis, he has been given a fief and a fief, and he is still a new upstart in the Qin State. What's more, if he is reported to the government by someone with a heart, just to say that he has a plan, it will be a disaster.

Ying Zheng saw it, and treated him with kind words, thanking him for sacrificing his life to save the life of the Queen Mother, and at the same time rewarding many things. As a result, many of the Wenchen who had been visited at the door had a great change in their attitudes, and many of the petty officials who had been going to follow Lü Buwei began to come into contact with each other slowly, and the officials in the DPRK and China began to slowly choose between Lü Buwei and He.

Lü Buwei has been indifferent to the ambiguous relationship between Ying Zhenghe, until the family members came to report that there are many officials who have been clinging behind him have shown signs of turning to the door, Lü Buwei only said that he doesn't need to care, as long as he has no power in his hands, he can only be his long-letter marquis, no matter how big the fief is, it is useless.

In this way, it was the day when Ying Zheng and the queen drove the old palace of Yongcheng to meet the queen mother and the ancestral hall of the Ying family. Yingzheng's trip is a big event, not sloppy, this trip to Yongcheng has a total of 5,000 forbidden troops escorted, and 5,000 Mengjia troops accompanied by the army in case of accidents, Meng Tian Zhanghan led the army, Lu Buwei, Wei Yi, Li Si and other dozens of Wenchen accompanied to Yongcheng. Because of the long time of this trip, Meng Yi, who stayed in Xianyang City, selected the pieces that needed to be personally reviewed by Yingzheng every day and sent them to Yongcheng by fast horse, so as not to delay state affairs.

On the first day of October, Ying Zheng and Queen Mi Fang'er rode out of Xianyang City on the imperial chariot, and the forbidden army and 5,000 Mengjia soldiers waiting outside Xianyang City swept out of Xianyang City. Meng Tian and Zhang Han rode horses and walked at the front of the team, the two young generals wore armor and held swords, majestic, and the 10,000 Qin soldiers behind them were the elite of the Qin State's million-strong army, which made Yingzheng, who had not been out of the palace for a long time, very satisfied.

Ying Zheng sat in the imperial chariot and asked the queen next to him, "Fang'er, what do you think of the widow's army compared to the Chu country?"

Queen Qi Fang'er handed a glass of wine to Yingzheng, and said with a smile: "The king has millions of lions, Fang'er was born in the Chu State, and when she entered Qin, she saw the Mengjia army led by General Meng Tian, and now when she sees these 10,000 soldiers and horses, the military power is definitely not comparable to the army of the Chu State." ”

Ying Zheng drank the wine handed over by the queen, took the queen into his arms, and laughed: "Widow."

The soldiers and horses, counting from the widow's father to the king, all of them are based on the main goal of enriching the country and strengthening the army, and there are several generations of previous kings who have worked hard, so they have the majesty of the widow today. The widow has this military horse, why worry about the injustice of the world. ”

After leaving Xianyang City, King Qin's guard of honor only rested for half an hour before continuing to set off, and was about to arrive at the old capital Yongcheng just after Shen in the afternoon. Different from the last time Yingzheng Weifu visited Yongcheng privately, this time the Qin royal family and nobles in Yongcheng and the officials in the city waited for the arrival of King Yingzheng of Qin outside the city early. Therefore, when there were still five or six miles away from Yongcheng, the scouts sent by Meng Tian came back to report that everyone in Yongcheng was waiting for the king outside the city. Ying Zheng left the imperial chariot and rode a horse instead, and slowly galloped towards Yongcheng.

Ying Zheng arrived in Yongcheng, all the people waiting at the door to greet all kneeling down on the ground and calling the king, for a time the city gate was full of kneeling people, Ying Zheng rode on the horse, only to see the backs of nearly a thousand people. Ying Zheng rode on a horse and slowly walked in front of these people, said "flat", and after everyone stood up, Ying Zheng took the lead into the city, followed by Meng Tian and Zhang Han. In addition to the forbidden army, the 10,000 army of the Meng family was also stationed outside the city, led by Meng Li and Du Hui, who came together.

When he arrived in Yongcheng, Ying Zheng must also live in the old palace of Yongcheng, so Ying Zheng took his queen to meet the Queen Mother Zhao Ji first.

Zhao Ji is now four or five months old in the womb, the fetus has gradually taken shape, and the waist and abdomen have begun to appear. But Ying Zheng brought the queen to visit, and she couldn't see it, so she didn't go out of the palace to greet Ying Zheng and Qi Fang'er, but just sat in her own hall and waited for Ying Zheng to come to visit.

Ying Zheng knew that Zhao Ji was pregnant again, so when he and Queen Mi Fang'er entered the palace where the Queen Mother Zhao Ji lived, Ying Zheng locked his eyes on Zhao Ji's stomach at first sight. Since the seats in the palace are all couches, and Zhao Ji's clothes are very loose, it is difficult for her to find her bulging belly when she sits there. Ying Zheng couldn't see Zhao Ji's stomach, and then shifted his gaze to Zhao Ji's face, and he found that since the moment he and Mi Fang'er stepped into the palace, Zhao Ji's face was abnormal. Ying Zheng snorted coldly, pretending not to know anything, took Mi Fang'er's hand and walked to the main hall, kneeling on the ground: "The son of Ying Zheng and the queen came to see the queen mother, and I wish the queen mother good health and longevity." ”

Zhao Ji knew that her body was inconvenient, so she just sat on the seat and said, "The king, please get up, and the queen, when you come here, it is also our home, you don't have to be polite." ”

"Thank you. Ying Zheng and Mi Fang'er said at the same time.

Zhao Ji asked the two of them to sit down and said: "Zheng'er's wedding, the mourning family was disturbed by thieves and suffered from the cold, so I can't go to Xianyang in person to preside over the wedding for the two of you, you husband and wife don't blame the mourning family." ”

Queen Mi Fang'er turned sideways and said: "

What is the queen mother talking about, the daughter-in-law married to the Qin State, and it is enough to marry the king, which is the blessing of the daughter-in-law's life, since the queen mother was harassed by thieves and suffered from the cold, how could the daughter-in-law blame the queen mother. ”

Zhao Ji smiled and continued: "Fang'er is the county lord of Chu State, since my Great Qin Dynasty was the first king Zhuang Xiangwang, my Qin State has repeatedly married Chu State, and the Mourning family was still worried about which woman to marry Zheng'er with, since Zheng'er fell in love with you, and you also wanted to marry him, it was naturally better." Zheng'er, you have to treat Fang'er well in the future, you know?"

Although Ying Zheng doesn't like his mother, he still has to pretend in front of outsiders. Ying Zheng bowed his head and said, "Mother's words are remembered by the child. After he finished speaking, he paused, then looked at Mi Fang'er and continued: "Since I met Fang'er in Yongcheng last time, the widow has fallen in love with her, and the widow will naturally treat her well for the rest of her life." ”

The husband and wife looked at each other and smiled.

Zhao Ji looked at Ying Zheng and Mi Fang'er so affectionate, and remembered that when she and Ying Zheng's father got married in Zhao State, although she and Lu Buwei did a bad thing, but the alien was very good to herself, and now she thinks that she is eternally separated from heaven and man, and she is in such a situation now, I don't know if he will forgive his sins when he meets the first king in heaven after death.

Zhao Ji thought about the past and felt deeply, but she suddenly remembered something, and with a wave of her hand, five maids came forward with five delicate sandalwood boxes, and stood still in front of Yingzheng and Qi Fang'er. Zhao Ji said to Yingzheng and Mi Fang'er: "The queen mother didn't go to see your husband and wife's wedding, but the gifts for Fang'er will not be less." These were given to me by Zheng'er's father when the mourning family returned to Qin with the king. Over the years, the mourning family has also accumulated some, and now that Fang'er is married to the palace, the mourning family should have something to say. ”

The maid beside Zhao Ji walked over and opened the five boxes one by one, which were full of rare gold and silver jewelry, jewelry and earrings, although they were not some very rare treasures, but they were not something that ordinary rich and noble people could see.

Ying Zheng nodded to Mi Fang'er, and Mi Fang'er stood up and bowed to Zhao Ji: "Daughter-in-law thanked her mother." ”

Zhao Ji smiled and asked Mi Fang'er to get up, and said to Yingzheng: "Zheng'er, you haven't gone to the ancestral shrine to meet your ancestors when you come to Yongcheng, this is not good, wait and take Fang'er to worship the ancestors of Qin." ”

Yingzheng replied: "What the queen mother said is that the child has been arranged, and besides, it is not early today, and tomorrow morning Erchen will take Fang'er to visit the ancestors again, what does the mother think?"

"It's best like this, when you're done with your business, you can come and see the mourning family. Zhao Ji said.

Ying Zheng saw that Zhao Ji had the intention of driving people away, and it was not interesting for him to stay, and after bowing to Zhao Ji with Mi Fang'er, the two left.
