Chapter 5: Who is the undercover agent
On the day I entered the Qin Palace, I and the princesses of the Five Kingdoms worshiped the King of Qin and the princesses of Qin from afar in the main hall of the Qin Palace, and then the eunuch next to the King of Qin read the edict of the King of Qin and said, "The princess of your country has been working hard all the way, please rest after entering the palace of Qin." β
Later, I rested in this side hall in the most corner of the Qin Palace.
Walking around arouses suspicion, speech is monitored, frolicking falls into people's hands... So I could only stay quietly, day after day. It's good that I'm already at home, otherwise I would have gone crazy.
Qi Guofang, who had been quiet for six years, suddenly heard the sound of broken and noisy footsteps, and the servant at the door came in to report: "Princess Qixi, the father-in-law of the ladies in the palace came outside, saying that the ladies have a reward." β
My heart was shocked, and I looked at Luo Onion in a panic. Luo Cong, an authentic Warring States person, has been the backbone of me when I was overwhelmed by the strict courtesies since I came to the Qin State.
"Princess, isn't it okay to keep you out?" Luo Onion whispered faintly.
It's not good, and it's even worse if it's found wrong. "Yes, please." I say.
After a moment's effort, the fragmented and noisy steps were getting closer and closer, and the fathers-in-law of the various palaces rushed in.
"Mrs. Jing's reward: nine pearls of Nanjun, nine brocades of Shudi, and nine silver plates of the palace";
"Mrs. Zhao's reward: eight pairs of jade bracelets, eight pieces of pottery, and eight female servants";
"Mrs. Mi's reward: eight gold cups, eight silver curtains, eight copper embroidered blessings";
"Mrs. Fish's Reward: Six Jade Lanterns, Six Jade Phoenixes, Six Boxes of Hundred Flowers and Rouge";
"Lady Dance's Reward: Six Lamb Charcoal Sheep, Six Tiger Whips, Six Fox Blankets";
β¦β¦
On this day, I received a soft hand, Qi Guofang seems to be a peaceful and happy scene, and the people from the palace are respectfully presenting, but it makes my heart have a thick layer of worry and depression.
It seems that I have been involved in the whirlpool life of the palace of the Qin Palace.
I can't do it for a reason, whether I want it or not.
As soon as the scene of people was over, the originally quiet Qi Guofang seemed even clearer.
"Which one is this, there is no movement on King Qin's side, but the princesses came to show their favor first." Luo Onion looked at the stacked boxes and was in trouble: "Princess, what should I do?" β
If I go to visit the princesses of Qin according to the Qin rites, I will definitely be ashamed, after all, I am nothing to the Qin Palace and the Qin King.
"As a guest of the princess of Qi Kingdom, she naturally wants to return the gift, take some equivalent gold and return the gift, just as if we bought it from them."
"But they're talking about rewards."
"But they can't be the masters, King Qin has no reward, these are not rewards."
"Hey," Luo Cong walked around me in embarrassment, complaining, "What is Qin Guo doing?" If only she could prompt it. β
"Luo Onion, don't talk nonsense!" I warned against Luo Onion.
Luo Cong knew the severity, looked outside the hall, and whispered: "The slave maid went to see the gift she gave, maybe there would be something." β
I didn't stop Luo Onion.
Before leaving the Qin Palace, the prime minister said that for my safety and the important task of saving the Qi Kingdom, there will be someone in the Qin Palace to help me rescue the Qi Kingdom, he did not say who it was, but Luo Cong and I both pinned our allies on Tian Tianyu.
Tian Tianyu is Tian Jian's biological granddaughter, Tian Tianxi's uncle, in the early years by the Empress Dowager personally selected to enter the Qin palace as a concubine in the name of marriage. It is said that Yingzheng is very good to the gentle Tiantian fish, and gives him the title of Mrs. Yu, a long envoy grade, and has a son, chestnut ear, and a princess Lifeng.
Luo Congzai carefully inspected the box sent by Mrs. Yu three times, but found nothing.
Could it be that the rewards are so strict that it is inconvenient to deliver information?
"Luo Cong, the princess of Qin is very grateful for the kindness of the princesses, the courtesies are still exchanged, and the princess is inconvenient to move around, you can go and return the gifts to the ladies in person." I want everyone to hear the Qin State outside the palace.
Luo Cong understood, ordered gold ingots and silver and took people to the palaces to return the gift.
If there are really any hints and help that are not easy to convey in the Qin Palace, Luo Cong and Madame Yu are the safest distance to convey when they are face to face.
The news that the King of Qin was fortunate that Qi Guofang had not issued the edict of canonization for a long time, and the princesses of Qin had been rewarded together, and the calm appearance of the Qin Palace was like a frying pan, and almost everyone did not believe that the Qin army of Qi Guotian Tianxi had not been filled in and the Qin army that was ready to go did not send troops.
Luo Cong truthfully reported to me what she felt about the Qin Palace, and loudly reported the results of this trip.
"Princess, Mrs. Mi was unable to summon the slave maid in person due to illness, and Mrs. Wu took the little son to accompany the king of Qin in the horse training field, so the slave and maid were not blessed to visit, and the rest of the ladies asked the slave and maid to say hello to the princess on their behalf."
"Got it." I looked outside the hall, but no one paid attention to us, and I squeezed my eyes at Luo Liang and motioned for her to talk about Mrs. Yu.
Luo Cong glanced outside the hall and hid behind the curtain of the hall beside me helplessly spread his hand Mrs. Yu did not show anything.
No, I should always tell sΓΉ what I should do to survive in this dire Qin Palace! For example, who should I watch out for, what should I avoid, and who should I vote for.
Seeing that I was disappointed, Luo Cong pretended to have just sorted out the back room and came out to serve me tea, and quietly comforted me: "Don't be discouraged, princess, just like the princess said, no news is good news, which shows that the princess is not a catastrophe now, otherwise Mrs. Yu will not stand by." β
"Did you explain to her that you came with me from the Qi Kingdom?" I don't want to give up, I think Lady Fish should at least give us some signals that she knows we're alive.
"Princess, the slave is not stupid, although I didn't give Mrs. Yu too many hints for the sake of safety, I confidently expressed it clearly enough." Luo Cong whispered: "The slave even called her 'Fish Princess', but she didn't eat oil and salt, and she didn't even have warm words and smiling faces, and she looked like she openly accepted worship." β
Luo Onion was also very discouraged.
"It can't be her, right?" I casually grumbled and speculated.
Luo Liang immediately denied my assumptions. "In the Qin Palace, you and Mrs. Yu are princesses from Qi Kingdom, who else can there be if it weren't for her, could it be Mrs. Jing?"
"Dead girl!" I laughed and rolled my eyes back at the joke that Luo Shallots had made fun of me.
Everyone knows that Mrs. Jing is LΓΌ Buwei's daughter-in-law, LΓΌ Buwei installed her by Yingzheng's side to help Yingzheng achieve hegemony, not to mention her feelings for Yingzheng and her supreme rank (Mrs. Jing is now the eighth son grade, and she is the only one in the Qin Palace), just in terms of the escort mission and the eldest son Fusu, she is also the most unlikely person to betray Yingzheng.
No matter, let's take one step at a time, anyway, I am now a hostile element who allows mermaids to be taboo, and I can only cover up the water and earth with soldiers, and live passively and hard.
