Chapter 701: Words Without Faith
Early the next morning, Qin Zhao got up early in the morning and wanted to train the soldiers as usual, but at this time, a soldier ran over in a hurry, knelt in front of her and wanted to report to her, Qin Zhao frowned slightly, a little unclear.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Zhao Yuanzheng committed suicide ......"
The soldier said these words tremblingly, but Qin Zhao was stunned after hearing this, Lord Huang and Mrs. Li listened to these words, and their faces also showed a look of shock, Zhao Yuanzheng went to see Qin Zhao last night, but he committed suicide early this morning, and he didn't say a word about last night's incident, could it be that Zhao Yuan decided to commit suicide after talking to Qin Zhao?
The expression on Qin Zhao's face was also a little shocked when he heard this, he was also stunned for a while, he often sighed, and he could see that he was feeling sorry for Zhao Yuansing's death.
"It's a pity!"
Lord Huang and Taiwei Li were stunned at this time, but Qin Zhao only nodded after hearing this, seeing Zhao Yuanzheng's expression yesterday, he should have guessed that if he had guessed it a long time ago, he should have stopped it, but Qin Zhao thought about it again, Zhao Yuanzheng has not been living for himself for most of his life, but for the Queen Mother, and now the things that support him to live have become so ridiculous, he will choose to commit suicide, this may have been a decision made in his heart, Yesterday was just a final decision to meet him.
"I know, let's bury him."
Qin Zhao explained lightly, Lord Huang and Taiwei Li on the side saw this situation, even if they wanted to ask, they felt that there was nothing to ask, it was estimated that the emperor knew something from a conversation with this Zhao Yuanzheng yesterday.

The Queen Mother stood on the platform, looking at the deputy general at the bottom who was training the soldiers, her eyes narrowed slightly, she told Qin Zhao that the plain battle would be fought in three days, but she naturally kept her own hand, how could she wait until three days later, she would personally lead these soldiers early tomorrow morning, and take Qin Zhao by surprise.
She knew that Qin Zhao had always been a person who kept his promises, and it was estimated that she had promised herself to go to war in three days, and she was seriously prepared to take action after three days, Qin Zhao, Qin Zhao, if you lose this time, you will lose on your so-called keeping promises.
The most useless thing in the world is promises, her promises to Zhao Yuanzheng are not to say that they will be destroyed easily, as long as they can usher in their own victory, no matter what, even if she betrays the world and bears all the charges, she will not hesitate.
The Queen Mother hooked the corners of her mouth slightly, looked at the people below, and then turned to leave, and walked to the side of the cabin.
"Open the door."
Guan Tongshu, who was in the cabin at this time, suddenly heard a voice talking outside, and immediately became alert, she could hear that these four words, the voice was the queen mother.
After seeing Qin Zhao on the sedan chair that day, the glance between her and Qin Zhao from a distance made her worry that it would be a big battle three days later, but now she watched the Queen Mother training the soldiers outside, and the soldiers were in a hurry, and they were still casting new weapons.
Guan Tongshu was very worried about Qin Zhao in her heart, after all, Qin Zhao led the troops to come all the way from Jingbei to here, the troops were already very tired, and they would recuperate, and they were going to usher in a new battle, is this really okay?
Guan Tongshu remembered the problem of Qin Zhao's sad face when she was in the suburban courtyard, the shortage of grain and grass was a fatal problem for them. At that time, Qin Zhao had already said that the grain and grass could only last for a few more days, and now that these few days have passed, it is estimated that the food will be cut off in these two days.
The potatoes must not have been able to be delivered so quickly, so what will these soldiers eat?
Guan Tongshu was very distressed in her heart, seeing that the granary was not far from her, how she hoped that Qin Zhao could come over, but now she was at a loss, so she could only wait for death here.
"Ouch, I see that you are living a really comfortable life, don't you know, tomorrow morning, your husband will come to the day of suffering!"
As soon as the Queen Mother came in, she said very loudly to Guan Tongshu, her voice was sharp and thin, Guan Tongshu subconsciously glanced at the two children lying on the bed sleeping, there were no windows in this room, it was gloomy, and it was hot during the day and cold at night, and the two children suffered here with her.
Seeing the queen mother's condescending posture, the expression on Guan Tongshu's face was still calm, not humble or arrogant.
"What? Is it because you've been here for too long and you've become dumb? I still miss Qin Zhao, it doesn't matter, tomorrow your family of four will be able to reunite, at that time, your family of four will definitely die together, I will bury you all alive, and I won't let your family of four die without a place to bury, but yes, I will take this throne with ease. β
The Queen Mother's face was full of smugness at this time, she said to Guan Tongshu, at this time her heart was full of confidence, just because she believed that Qin Zhao was a person who kept his promises, and her plan to disrupt Qin Zhao would definitely catch him off guard.
Although Qin Zhao has 60,000 soldiers in his hands, he also has 50,000 horses in his hands, and Zhao Yuanzheng chose this place to garrison troops, which has a unique advantage, they are in a relatively high position, this position is easy to defend and difficult to attack, it is a place where soldiers must fight, Qin Zhao is also a difficult thing to carry out a surprise attack.
However, the place where Qin Zhao's troops were stationed was in a lower position, and if they rushed down from the mountain, Qin Zhao would have no power to resist.
"How did it become tomorrow?"
Guan Tongshu listened to the Queen Mother's words, the expression on her face was a little shocked, she looked at the Queen Mother and asked the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother heard this, but she laughed, laughing so much that her stomach hurt, reaching out to cover her mouth, but she seemed to be laughing out of tears. Guan Tongshu stood up when she saw this situation, but she was almost thrown to the ground in the next second.
She looked at her feet, which had been tied to a chain, and were firmly tied to the bedside, and although she could walk around the room, it was not far away.
The Queen Mother looked at Guan Tongshu in front of her with a smile, and only felt that Guan Tongshu's question was ridiculous, it seems that Guan Tongshu and Qin Zhao are the same, they are dead, did she say that after three days, she would really choose to attack after three days? In that case, what are her chances of winning?
"Guan Tongshu, Guan Tongshu, do you know why you are still imprisoned here, you are too naΓ―ve like Qin Zhao, tomorrow morning I will lead my 50,000 soldiers out of the nest and catch Qin Zhao off guard, when the time comes, I will spare his life and let him see you before he dies."
