Chapter 260: Ying Zheng's Bottom Line
As an outsider, I inadvertently broke into this world, destined to come to taste loneliness and loneliness?
Thinking too much, it is inevitable that I will think too broadly, thinking of the heart of my relatives after a thousand years of thinking that I have never dared to open the mouth, and the blockade that I am busy resisting diverts my terrible thinking - if I blindly want to return to that peaceful world, then I will really be depressed to death by my own thoughts when I have no way out.
The sad feeling of homesickness touched the grievances in my body, and I sat helplessly, pouring out the feelings that every cell in my body was churning in my eyes, and tears fell wildly.
Because the emotions and feelings were concentrated in the two eyes, I didn't even notice that someone was approaching me, until someone stood beside me for a long time and hugged me firmly.
I was startled and stood up with hazy teary eyes.
"Did the widow make you sad?" He changed from holding my head to hugging my shoulders and asked heavily.
That's right, Yingzheng is here!
In this world, after being crowned the princess by Ying Zheng, I can't resist it, I will only be hugged by Ying Zheng for the rest of my life, and I can only be owned by him alone, even if I enter the grave, I can only designate a place for him.
This is the sorrow of the ancient girl, but, fortunately, my heart at the moment does not want anyone other than him to embrace me.
"The king said that he believed in slaves and concubines, but the king never believed in his heart." I couldn't help but sob.
There were aggrieved words popping in my mouth, but I never blamed Ying Zheng in my heart for not believing me, because his suspicions were true, and I did not confess many secrets to him.
I understand that Ying Zheng said that he believed because he wanted to believe in me unconditionally, but there were too many loopholes in my past behavior, so he had to break his trust and doubt my true connection.
However, although I am not honest enough about Ying Zheng on the issue of Qi State, I was indeed deliberately framed in the matter of Zhong Li's wife.
Ying Zheng heard my cry, hugged my arm tightly, and stared down at my tearful cheeks. After a minute, he finally leaned down and kissed me.
The warmth of my cheeks and lips was strangely warmed by Yingzheng's lips, and this wave of warmth spread from my cheeks all over my heart, and it also successfully stopped my tears.
"What should the widow do with you?"
He looked up, put his chin against my sideburns, and asked me, muttering to himself.
He must have believed in the slanderous words he had made against me, so he wanted to punish me for justice, but he had not yet made up his mind how he would punish me. So see my tears. He was in a dilemma for a moment.
I understand Yingzheng's dilemma. I can swallow this grievance for Ying Zheng and save Ying Zheng from being embarrassed, but if I do this, I can only solve Ying Zheng's difficulties for a while, but it will further fuel the bad arrogance of Zhong Li and them. As a result, they are more frequent and unscrupulous to do more slanderous things.
So, I argued.
"Mrs. Zhongli's child is really not made by a concubine." I tilted my head and showed my honest gaze to Yingzheng.
Although I am grateful for Ying Zheng's concerns, but I am even more sad that Ying Zheng's opinion of my vicious image and his intention to confirm without inquiry, seeing that my words did not trigger Ying Zheng's eyes to rethink, I was anxious for a while, and my tears rolled down easily.
Ying Zheng raised his hand to wipe my cheeks twice, and gently pressed me to sit on the wooden chair.
"Come, sit down. Listen to the widow. ”
When he saw that I was seated, he turned and sat down on the chair on the other side of the table.
"Because of the widow's character, he has always been reluctant to speak his mind to the outside world, especially those whose hearts are not here at all.
According to your style, the widow would not have wasted his energy dealing with the rumors that you were not doing the right thing. You can get rid of Zibo directly or take it first, but every time you want to do this, you always want to give you another chance. ”
Ying Zheng frowned contradictoryly, it should be because he was not used to expressing his inner thoughts, and his expression was very unnatural when he revealed his heart.
"Yes, the widow is not determined to deal with you, and that is where you can forgive.
You are indeed unique, the widow has never been so unstable for any woman, the widow tolerates you because the widow has selfish desires, and the widow's favor has a bottom line at all times. If you act unscrupulously to the point of unscrupulousness, then even if the widow is unbearable, the widow will not be able to keep you.
Children, loyalty, this is the bottom line of the widow, no one is allowed to touch it! ”
Ying Zheng's words were unusually solemn, and his expression was also solemn and moving.
From his point of view, he showed the greatest tolerance for me; But I'm sad that he still doesn't believe me!
My heart is full of bitterness, but I can only taste it alone.
I know that most of my mind is on the government and the world above Yingzheng, and it is rare to be able to be distracted and pay attention to the affairs of the inner palace. In his limited energy, there is every reason to believe that the scene where everyone is pointing at me and begging for my forgiveness with a smile is caused by me, so it is already extraordinarily gracious for him to not blame me heavily.
It stands to reason that Ying Zheng should know about the fact that Zhong Li is pregnant and spread in private in the inner palace, even if Mrs. Li is planning to help Zhong Li conceal it, then Mrs. Jing and Ying Zheng's eyeliners who are in the position of the side main palace should have already reported Ying Zheng, but looking at Ying Zheng's expression and Ying Zheng's decision, he seems to know nothing about it.
There are some things, maybe it's not that Yingzheng can't know, but that he has limited energy, and he really can't know everything.
Since Zhong Li is out of danger, and in her mouth, there is only because of me and the danger of "seeing red", and there is no unstable fetal image report from her before, if I pull out Yu Huai to expose Zhong Li's actual abnormal past, I am afraid that it will add burden and trouble to Ying Zheng, not to mention, Ying Zheng will also receive more admonitions that slander my little belly and chicken intestines, and panic to "retaliate" against Zhong Li's words, right?
Moreover, if I really expose what Yu Huai said to me, with my current ability, I can't protect him thoroughly. For Yu Huai, if he offends Mrs. Li's faction, he will not be able to mix in the Qin Palace and Xianyang City, right?
That's it, since the odds of winning are not big and it must be a stubble, I'd better keep it in my heart.
If Yingzheng doesn't care about my "fault" because of my tears, then I can't stop the provocation of Zhong Li because of Yingzheng's indifference, and return to Yingzheng to be relieved and quiet.
Ying Zheng's magnanimity and my peace of mind were exchanged for the hasty end of the violent disputes in the Qin Palace, although the forces were swarming and secretly moving, but in general, it was a moment of peace and tranquility.
The weather is showing signs of getting hot, the house is not ventilated, I have nothing to do, I see that people want to go out to pick flowers, and on a whim I watched them pick petals with Luo Onion.
"Greetings to Mrs. Creek!"
When the voice behind me woke me up, I realized that I was in a daze, and I didn't even see Meng Yi who was already standing behind me.
Meng Yi was reinstated by Ying Zhengguan, and now he is responsible for the safety of Qin Wanggong and Xianyang City, and he is as busy as Ying Zheng's schedule, so it is the first time I have seen him after he has recovered from his injury.
Meng Yi was dressed in simple armor, and even in the inner palace, he was equipped with swords, and he looked dignified.
"Seeing General Meng Yi so majestic, this palace is really gratifying."
I admire this brave man, so my smile is heartfelt.
I know that a large part of the reason why Meng Yi wants to stay by Ying Zheng's side is because of me, he thinks that I have no affection for Ying Zheng and came to the Qin Palace with a plan, so he has always been worried that I will be unfavorable to Ying Zheng, which will make Ying Zheng have hidden dangers in terms of safety.
Hearing my discordant voice, Meng Yi's kindness was indifferent, and he politely arched his hand and replied to my words.
"Madame is pleased, the last general has heard Madame's deeds repeatedly, and I am worried that Madame will not like it all day." He mocked me secretly.
I knew he was wary of me, so I deliberately gave him a smile that I was very happy to make him talk.
"Thanks to the general's blessing, the Qin Palace is peaceful. The general guarded the heart of the Qin State so firmly, the king was at ease, and the people in the inner palace were naturally at ease. ”
I said sincerely, but I think that Meng Yi should have a different taste to his ears: he would think that I was complaining that he had protected Xianyang, and the terrain outside the Qin State, such as the Qi State, was still trembling and suffering from the destruction of the country.
Meng Yi was not humble about his contribution to the Qin State, and he smiled proudly, as if he was deliberately accentuating his voice to me.
"The last general is not good enough, if the soldiers of the Qin State can work together and level the territory of the world for the king as soon as possible, the king will be able to participate in politics with less thought, and he will have more time to clear the hearts and minds of the people in the palace."
He was blunt about his hostility towards me, and I could hear it, but he didn't directly identify me, so I didn't take it on myself.
"The general thinks that there are people in the palace who are not subservient?" I looked at Meng Yi in deliberate astonishment.
Meng Yi coldly avoided his gaze with a deliberate gesture towards me, and his words seemed to be incompatible with my question, but they were extremely clear words to answer my question.
"Madame thinks that if there is no one in the vast palace and is rejected by everyone, then what is the heart of this person?"
He didn't look me in the eye, but I could clearly feel that he was paying attention to me with his peripheral vision and undivided attention.
The person I'm talking about, I understand, he understands I understand—it's me!
Meng Yi is right, I really live an amazing life: I don't have a single friend in the huge palace of the King of Qin, and the longer I am active, the more strained my relationship with people seems to be—I am really a failure.
"Maybe the general hasn't heard of it, but the palace is open today, so that the general can listen to another rule in this world: 'The truth is often in the hands of a few'! Unbelief? Hongu is confident, and sooner or later the general will believe the rules that Hongu says. ”
