Chapter 27: King Qin Chooses a Concubine

At this time, Handan, the capital of Zhao Guoguo, the palace hall, the new Zhao King Zhao Yan was enjoying singing and dancing with Guo Kai, drinking and having fun.

Zhao Yan grew up in the palace since he was a child, arrogant and willful, and misbehaved. The person he trusted most in the court was Xiangguo Guo Kai. He learned a lot of things from Guo Kai that he didn't understand before. For example, how to drink without getting drunk, how to gamble without losing, how to play with women, how to rectify enemies, and so on. In his mind, Jianxinjun Guo Kai is a truly knowledgeable person.

After Zhao Yan ascended the throne, he continued to appoint Jianxinjun Guo Kai as the prime minister. Guo Kai took advantage of this project to take bribes, and was once reprimanded by the veteran general Lian Po. At the beginning of the year, Guo Kai took advantage of Zhao Yan, the king of Zhao, to find an opportunity to clean up Lian Po, and Lian Po was forced to flee to Wei.

Guo Kai heard that Lian Po still hoped that Zhao Yan, the king of Zhao, would continue to reuse him regardless of his previous suspicions, and naturally he would not let Lian Po get his wish.

"Lian Po is proud of his achievements, and he has long been disobedient, but fortunately, the king removed his military power in time, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable!" Guo Kai toasted and said to Zhao Yan, the king of Zhao.

"Lian Po is old and a thief, so he naturally doesn't take the widow in his eyes, and he dares to disobey orders! Even if he escapes to Wei, the widow will definitely not let him go! Zhao Wang Zhao Yan roared angrily while wantonly admiring the graceful figure of the dancer.

"Now that Wei has obtained Lian Po, he thinks that he has obtained a peerless famous general, but Lian Po is old and weak, and he no longer has the courage of the year. The king could send someone to spread rumors that Lian Po was a spy sent by Zhao to plot to steal military power, so Wei would definitely not be at ease to let him lead his troops outside. Guo Kai continued to slander and divide Zhao Wang, Zhao Yan and Lian Po.

"Good, very good! The widow must let all those who dare to betray know that betraying the widow will never end well! "Zhao Yan, the king of Zhao, was already half drunk and half awake, so he naturally completely agreed with the suggestion of the traitor Guo Kai.

Once the matter was decided, the news was immediately sent back to Xianyang by the black-clothed guard flying pigeon in Handan. When Meng Yi found out, he was overjoyed: "I didn't expect the traitor Guo Kai to be so favored!" ”

At this time, the frame of the Korean princess Han Xiang also arrived in Xianyang. According to etiquette, King Yingzheng of Qin received the Korean envoy in the main hall of Xianyang Palace. Meng Yi has military merits in hand at this moment, so he can naturally find a position in the back of the hall.

I saw that the Korean princess Han Xiang had long black satin-like hair, which was skillfully combed into a weeping bun, and two strands of soft hair attached to both sides of her snow-white cheeks. Her complexion was as white as mutton fat jade, and she blew it out. Her slender eyebrows are like Yuandai, and her eyes are like autumn water, which is seductive. Under her small nose was a small ruddy and plump mouth, which was slightly upturned and shimmered like crystal. She has a pair of shiny transparent earrings that sway slightly with her footsteps, reflecting a bright brilliance. She was covered with a fox fur all over her body, and the snow-white fluff made her face more and more white and tender, and the plain white brocade dress could be seen from the neckline of the fox fur, as well as a thrilling snow-white skin under her neck. Although her figure is petite, her chest is high and high. Even a thick winter coat can't hide this peerless elegance that makes people's blood gush and delicate!

Even King Yingzheng of Qin was dazzled, and after losing his temper, he immediately reacted and ordered to vacate the palace to entertain the Korean delegation to send relatives.

Zhao Ji, the empress dowager of Qin, was very happy when she heard that the Korean princess had come to Xianyang. She sent a letter to Xianyang Palace, hoping that her son Yingzheng would get married as soon as possible and she could hold her grandson.

King Yingzheng of Qin was silent about this proposal.

Meng Yi thought to himself: With the Korean princess Han Xiang, I hope that King Qin Yingzheng will not harm the "heroine" Dong Rou again.

Unexpectedly, that afternoon, the "chivalrous girl" Dong Rou ran over to complain.

Half an hour ago, King Yingzheng of Qin paid a visit and confessed to the "chivalrous girl" Dong Rou.

"There is only you in the hearts of the widows, and the Korean princess is just a need for a political marriage. When the widow is in power, he will definitely leave the queen's seat to you. Qin Wang Yingzheng still showed the domineering spirit of the king at this moment, but unfortunately his method did not work at all for the "chivalrous" Dong Rou.

"The king is loved, and the little woman is not blessed. For the king, the most important thing is to dominate the world, and nothing else should be taken to heart. "Chivalrous girl" Dong Rou doesn't have any affection at all.

"There is nothing that a widow wants to get from a woman! Even if there is a case, if the widow can't get it, no one can think of it! King Yingzheng of Qin actually failed to show love, but instead let go of cruel words. It can be seen that Qin Wang Yingzheng really doesn't understand the character of the "chivalrous girl" Dong Rou at all: eat soft but not hard, just when you are strong, and soft when you are soft.

"The king is ambitious, and the little woman admires. But I, Dong Rou, have never been afraid of power! I want to marry someone, I will only marry my beloved, and no one can force me! No one can stop it! "Chivalrous Girl" Dong Rourou is rigid and stiff, and she stands up hard without giving in.

"Aren't you worried about the inheritance of the Guigu lineage? You must know that under the whole world, it is not the king's land; On the shore of the land, it is not the king's minister. King Yingzheng of Qin was angry and threatened viciously.

"The king looks down on the world, and naturally does what he wants. But what is the joy of life, and why is it so painful to die? I'm never afraid of death! "Chivalrous girl" Dong Rou sent off the guest directly after speaking.

After listening to the description of the chivalrous girl Dong Rou, Meng Yi's face turned pale: King Qin Yingzheng's confession to Dong Rou was actually rejected! At the same time, threatening to eradicate the Guigu lineage was also ridiculed!

"My eldest lady, didn't you discuss such a big matter with Mrs. Dong?" Meng Yi's voice trembled a little.

"It's been discussed a long time ago. My mother said, "It's all my heart!" The chivalrous Dong Rou said happily, not taking the threat of King Qin seriously at all.

"You really don't want to be the queen of Qin?" Meng Yi asked with some hatred, "But you don't need to offend King Qin directly!" ”

"Whoever wants to be a queen, he should go!" The chivalrous Dong Rou said with a righteous face, "My dream is to be chivalrous and righteous and ask for the lives of all the people!" ”

"Okay, you guys are all crazy!" Meng Yi roared angrily. Then, Meng Yi could only walk around the study worriedly, thinking: Will King Yingzheng of Qin be so angry that he will go crazy, and then list the charges and send troops to encircle and suppress the Guigu line? Will this incident cause unpredictable losses to the intelligence work of the six countries? How do you choose to mix it yourself?

"Actually, I should thank you! Thanks to your reminders, I was able to gain the understanding of my mother and grandfather. The great cause of the world should not sacrifice my lifelong happiness alone! The chivalrous Dong Rou said calmly, "Because King Qin Yingzheng will never change himself for the sake of a woman!" My sacrifice is ridiculous and useless! ”

"What? Because of my reminder? Meng Yi was suddenly blindfolded, thinking: Could it be that he really changed history?

In the court of the Qin State, the ministers argued endlessly over the matter of "King Qin's choice of concubine".

King Qin's choice of concubine is a big event, especially this time the selection of concubines is very likely to determine the candidate for the queen!

The rank of the harem concubines of the Qin State is divided into eight grades: queen, lady, beauty, beloved, eight sons, seven sons, long envoys, and young envoys.

The concubines of the first king Yingyiren, except for the queen Zhao Ji, the rest were basically sent to Yongcheng for support.

At this time, the huge harem of King Yingzheng of Qin, who had reached the age of fifteen, was empty. According to the system, the prince or the new king can choose a concubine when he reaches the age of fifteen.

"My Majesty, according to the system, the Prime Minister has sent envoys to various countries. It is believed that at the end of this month, the women of the clan selected by various countries will arrive in Xianyang. "Qin Prime Minister Lü Buwei is now more authoritarian, and he has firmly grasped the dominant power in the court.

The general Wang Yu passed away, and Gong Yingwei and the veteran Meng Wei were old. Of the four auxiliary ministers, only Lü Buwei is still in his prime!

"Lu Xiangguo has worked hard. But for the sake of the interests of the Qin State, which princess should the widow choose as the queen? Ladies and gentlemen, you may wish to speak freely! Qin Wang Yingzheng looked indifferent, as if he was talking about other people's lifelong events.

"The old minister thinks that the princess of Chu should be chosen as the best!" Changping Jun Qiqi, as a representative of his relatives surnamed Mi, spoke first. Although the relatives surnamed Mi are now at the bottom of the strength ranking, where are they willing to give up the God-given opportunity. It seems that the State of Chu will definitely send a stunning princess to cooperate with the arrangement of the relatives surnamed Mi.

"Lao Chen thinks it's best to choose one of the nobles of the Qin State who is both good-looking!" Cai Ze, who used to be Xiangguo, said that he was supported by Wang Juan, Feng Quji's brothers, Ren Huan and other meritorious families.

"Lao Chen thinks that it is best to marry Zhao Guo, and he can recuperate for a while!" Gong Yingwei expressed his opinion on behalf of the clan surnamed Ying.

"The Qin State and the Qi State have formed an alliance, so you might as well make the alliance more stable, so the old minister thinks that the princess of the Qi State is the most suitable to become the queen of Qin!" The veteran Meng Wei hesitated for a moment, but still stood up and put forward his own opinions, which was also supported by the Wang family and other military upstarts.

"I think it's better to collect all the nobles from all over the world, but don't choose the queen for the time being, join the vertical and horizontal, and watch the sky!" Qin Xiang Lu Buwei is even more scheming, completely calculating gains and losses based on interests.

At present, there are five major forces within the Qin State: the Ying clan, the relatives surnamed Mi, the military nouveau riche, the meritorious family, and the Hundred Schools of Thought.

At this time, the attitude of the five major forces also affected the attitude of King Yingzheng of Qin, and the wise King Yingzheng of Qin finally chose to follow the advice of Qin Prime Minister Lü Buwei. This move made Qin Prime Minister Lü Buwei even more proud, prompting him to deal more intensively with Chang'an Jun Chengjiao and the supporting forces behind it.

Xianyang Palace, King Qin's study.

"The king's good means, on the one hand, appeased Lu Xiangguo, and on the other hand, aroused the dissatisfaction of other forces against Lü Buwei." Meng Yi naturally tried his best to praise King Yingzheng of Qin.

"The widow has a lot of skills to stir up the storm. Let Lü Buwei be a pawn! "King Qin is full of political ambitions, as if the world is in his own hands.

"Great King, there is good news from Zhao State, Zhao Yan has clearly abandoned Lian Po." Meng Yi reported the good news to the King of Qin.

"Okay, I've been sick for the time being! Guo Kai is really a good chess piece, don't forget to reward him with a few meat bones! King Qin Yingzheng became even more proud.

"My lord, there is one more piece of good news. The black-clothed guard lurking in Wei came with the news that Wei Wuji, the king of Xinling, was seriously ill and would die soon! Meng Yi then reported the good news, and at the same time speculated about the thoughts of King Yingzheng of Qin.

"Oh, it seems that the big war is about to start, and my Great Qin is going to be out of the customs!" King Yingzheng's gaze shot through the paper window to the far east!
