Chapter 144: Not Child's Play
Compared with Han Yuyou's embarrassment and confusion, Qin Zhi was much more open, although he was seen by Zhao Huaiyan, he was not affected at all, turned around and glanced at Zhao Huaiyan, and said with a smile: "How did Emperor Zhao find here?" ”
Zhao Huaiyan ignored him, only walked up to Han Yuyou, took her hand, and said to her: "Your two sisters are looking for you, let's go find them, so as not to worry them." ”
Han Yuyou's heart was very flustered, her brain was also blank, she didn't have the ability to think now, she nodded what Zhao Huaiyan said, very obedient.
Zhao Huaiyan pulled her and left.
Qin Zhi stood there and didn't move, and when Zhao Huaiyan and Han Yuyou left, he slowly turned around, the smile on the corner of his mouth was hidden in an indifferent face, he returned to the courtyard, and the people had already put the young rabbit and the female rabbit into the delicate cage, and when they wanted to take it away, they still came over to let him take a look.
Qin Zhi just looked at the delicate cage coldly, looking at the mother and cub snuggled in the cage, I don't know what I thought, the corners of his mouth hooked up an extremely mocking smile, he retracted his gaze expressionlessly, and said, "Take it." ”
The subordinate answered yes and hurriedly carried the cage away.
Of course, the subordinates knew where to take this cage, it was nothing more than to get it to Princess Han Yuyou's carriage.
Han Yuyou was pulled away by Zhao Huaiyan and found Han Xishan and Han Bei, both girls asked Han Yuyou where she went, so that they could find it, and said that this is the palace of the prince of Qin, not the palace of South Korea, she can go casually, if she accidentally causes trouble, what should she do.
This was the concern of the two sisters, and I didn't blame her for anything, just reminded her to go out and have more eyes.
But when she heard these words in Han Yuyou's heart, she blamed herself.
She thought of what Qin Zhi had just said to her, and also thought of her taking the initiative to accept the gift from Qin Zhi.
And just now, she was hugged by Qin Zhi and forgot to resist.
Her delicate face was flushed, and a sense of tension arose, she raised her head slightly, glanced at Zhao Huaiyan, completely lost her heart, held her hand, and shouted, "Yan'er." ”
Zhao Huaiyan knew what she was nervous about, although she didn't see what happened between Qin Zhi and Han Yuyou with her own eyes, and she didn't hear what Qin Zhi just said when she dragged Han Yuyou, but she knew Qin Zhi and guessed what Qin Zhi wanted to do, so as soon as she saw Han Yuyou like this, she held her hand and asked soothingly, "What did Prince Qin say to you just now?" ”
Han Yuyou bit her lip, and her face became more and more red.
Han Xishan was surprised and asked, "Young sister, you just met Prince Qin?" ”
Han Yuyou nodded slightly.
Han Bei asked, "He didn't bully you, did he?" ”
Han Yuyou bit her lip again, but she couldn't hide this matter from her sisters, so she said the incident that she had just gotten along with Qin Zhi in the courtyard, as well as the fact that Qin Zhi gave her a rabbit, and what Qin Zhi said about marrying her in front of Han Xishan, Han Bei and Zhao Huaiyan.
When she said this, the three girls were all taken aback.
Although Zhao Huaiyan had this guess, he didn't expect Qin Zhi to be so direct, and besides, send rabbits?
Zhao Huaiyan's face was extremely gloomy for a moment.
Everyone knows that in the animal kingdom of the jungle, at the top of the food chain are tigers and lions, while at the end are rabbits.
Han Yuyou probably didn't understand the meaning of Qin Zhi sending her rabbit at all.
It's nothing more than that if she doesn't marry, she will end up being the object of devouring.
And it was not she who was devoured, but the whole of South Korea.
Zhao Huaiyan's face flashed with an extremely cold light, she sneered and rolled her sleeves, and said to Han Xishan and Han Bei: "You take Yuyou to find Han Ye, and you say that you want to go back." ”
When Han Xishan heard Han Yuyou say that Qin Zhi wanted to marry her, his heart trembled suddenly, thinking back to what his father had confessed before he came, and then thinking of the current situation, and Qin as a strong country, when did he take her South Korea in his eyes? Enemies are not qualified, let alone married.
But suddenly, Qin Guo sent an invitation post to South Korea, and Qin Zhi also said that he wanted to marry Yuyou's sister.
Han Xishan is not a simple-minded person, and neither is Han Bei, these two princesses are aware of the seriousness of the situation.
Han Xishan raised his head and asked Zhao Huaiyan: "If Prince Qin really has such a plan, what should I do in Korea?" ”
Han Bei also said: "If Prince Qin really has the heart to marry Yuyou's younger sister, he will not dare to refuse with my Korean strength." ”
And agree, that means that the future of South Korea must only be the head of the Qin State, otherwise it will trap Yuyou's sister in injustice and trap South Korea in disregard!
However, once agreed, will her relationship between South Korea and Zhao Guo be severed from this?
Han Xishan and Han Bei were both worried about this situation, the two princesses had different appearances, but their equally good-looking brows were all twisted into a mountain.
Zhao Huaiyan was also deeply troubled by this situation, but she couldn't let them see it, she said softly: "Go to Han Ye first, explain this matter to him, and then return to China as soon as possible, inform Emperor Han, so that he can be prepared, if Qin Zhi makes up his mind this time, if he has to marry Yuyou, he must tell Emperor Han, and he will answer." ”
Han Xishan was taken aback, and suddenly said, "How can this work!" ”
Zhao Huaiyan said with a heavy face: "Otherwise? Let the Qin State smoothly send troops to invade on the grounds that you Korea does not give face or does not know how to lift? ”
Her eyes were cool, she looked at the mountains and rivers in the palace of the prince of Qin in front of her, and said word by word: "At this stage, there can be no war. ”
Han Bei looked at her and asked sharply, "Are you Zhao Guo afraid of him Qin Guo?" ”
Zhao Huaiyan laughed lowly, stretched out his hand to comb the hair floating in his ear, and said to her: "It's not a question of fear or not, but the current Seven Kingdoms are the strongest in Yan and Qin, and Yan is still in the stage of recuperation after annexing Qi, if Qin attacks South Korea, I, Zhao State, will definitely not sit idly by, Zhao State moves, Yan State will definitely move, and the rear of Yan State is Chu State, you also know the situation of Chu State, the prince of Chu married Princess Qin, although Chu Chaohuan will also marry Yan State, but can you guarantee that Chu State will not defect?" There are also Zhou and Wei in the rear, they are loyal supporters of Qin, if there is a real fight, South Korea will be in danger, Zhao will be in danger, including Chen Guo, who has just left the war, will also be in danger. ”
Han Bei frowned and snorted lightly: "Yan Guo is not a paper tiger, if it really fights, Qin State will be defeated." ”
Zhao Huaiyan sighed: "Fighting is not child's play, Sister Beibei, besides, Yan Guo is not obliged to help us." ”
Han Bei choked, and couldn't say anything to refute for a while.
Han Xishan was worried, her depressed brows had not been stretched, she glanced at Han Yuyou, and saw her standing there, hanging her head and saying nothing, probably blaming herself, she didn't say anything in the end, only said to Zhao Huaiyan: "Let's go to see the prince's brother first, and then return to China and explain this matter to my father." ”
Zhao Huaiyan nodded: "Well, go back as soon as possible." ”
Han Xishan stopped talking and led Han Bei and Han Yuyou away.
Waiting for them to leave, Qu Zhao crossed his arms and said sneeringly: "This Prince Qin has a really strange mind. ”
Zhao Huaiyan hooked his lips coldly and said, "Let's go." ”
Qu Zhao asked, "Where are you going?" ”
Zhao Huaiyan said: "Talk to Prince Qin, he is so good at calculating people, go and worship him." ”
Qu Zhao chuckled suddenly, knowing that Zhao Huaiyan was going to go to Qin Zhi to settle accounts, she happily followed.
Qin Zhi was no longer in that courtyard, he was chatting with Wei Jing and Zhou Ke, and there were chessboards and arrows next to him, and the place where they chatted was not indoors, but a shooting range.
Wei Zhi and Zhou Furong are also there.
Qin Shuang and Chu Shang were also there.
Han Ye didn't come at first, but he came in the end.
Zhao Huaiyan found Qin Zhi and them first.
Han Xishan, Han Bei, and Han Yuyou were found later.
After several people reunited here, Qin Zhi, as the host, beckoned them all to sit.
Zhao Huaiyan sat down.
Han Xishan, Han Bei, and Han Yuyou did not sit.
Qin Zhi raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at the three Korean princesses.
Han Xishan didn't look at him, only called Han Ye, saying that he wanted to go back.
Han Ye was stunned for a moment, and then saw that the three younger sisters all looked like they had something to say, he stood up with a smile, arched his hand at Qin Zhi, and said, "My sisters want to go back, so I won't bother me today, and I will leave first." ”
Qin Zhi sat there without moving, there was no expression on his naturally cold face, he held a piece of chess in his hand, and his thumb rubbed on the inscription in the center, because the chess was held in his hand, Zhao Huaiyan didn't see what the word was, only heard him say lightly: "It's still early, wait until dinner and leave." ”
Han Ye looked at his three younger sisters in a sneering manner.
Han Xishan knew his embarrassment, so he took the initiative to speak: "No, Sister Yuyou said that she misses her father, she is young, she has never been out of the palace, and she has never left her father, this is the first time she has been away for such a long time." ”
Qin Zhi's hand moved, his tepid gaze moved over, looked at Han Yuyou, and saw her shrinking behind Han Xishan, the corners of his mouth hooked up a smile, like a ridicule, and like a mockery, and his words were unpredictable: "How old are you, and you still love your family so much?" Aren't you married? ”
He suddenly snapped the chess in his hand and stood up.
Only then did Zhao Huaiyan see that the word "soldier" was engraved on that chess.
Zhao Huaiyan frowned, and heard Qin Zhi's voice coming from behind him, as if he was saying to Han Yuyou: "Do you really want to go?" ”
Han Xishan replied: "Yes." ”
Qin Zhi said: "I'm asking Princess Yuyou. ”
Han Yuyou had no choice but to timidly answer: "Hmm." ”
Qin Zhi said: "Then I'll send you out." ”
Han Yuyou wanted to refuse, but Qin Zhi couldn't help but say, he actually took one of her hands and pulled her away in front of everyone.
Han Yuyou staggered, his heart was more messy than his steps.
Qin Zhi walked very firmly.
Han Ye's eyes were slightly gloomy, but he didn't panic, he just said to Zhao Huaiyan with a cold face: "Go first", didn't say hello to others, and followed to chase Qin Zhi and Han Yuyou.
Han Xishan and Han Bei's faces were also very bad, but they still greeted everyone present very politely before leaving.
After the others left, Zhao Huaiyan sat there and drank tea in silence.
Qin Shuang sneered: "It seems that my brother is in love with Princess Yuyou, too, Princess Yuyou is gentle and shy, soft-spoken, good-looking, and looks extremely obedient, which is very suitable for a rough person like my brother, unlike some people, who are self-righteous." ”
Zhao Huaiyan's beautiful eyebrows gently lifted an arc, she raised her head and glanced at Qin Shuang.
Qin Shuang was looking at her, and when she saw her coming, she mocked: "What do you think I am doing this way?" Do you think that the self-righteous person I am talking about is you? ”
When a sentence came out, the smell of gunpowder instantly diffused.
Chu Shang glared at Qin Shuang silently.
Wei Jing was slightly stunned.
Zhou Ke was also slightly stunned.
Wei Zhi and Zhou Furong both heard the aggressiveness in Qin Shuang's tone, and the two of them were on Qin Shuang's side, so naturally they would not help Zhao Huaiyan.
Zhao Huaiyan was unhurried, put down the teacup, tilted his head, looked at Qin Shuangdao, "What did you just say?" ”
In a word, the question is particularly serious, but it can be clearly disdainful.
Qin Shuang was furious: "Zhao Huaiyan! ”
Zhao Huaiyan chuckled: "Your father doesn't dare to call me by my name like this now, Princess Chu!" ”
As soon as the last four words came out, Chu Shang's eyelids jumped, and he hurriedly went to pull Qin Shuang.
Qin Shuang slapped away his outstretched hand, glared at Zhao Huaiyan angrily, and pressed his hand on the long whip on his waist, with the posture of whipping Zhao Huaiyan.
This is Qin Guo, Qin Shuang's temperament, Wei Jing, Zhou Ke, Wei Zhi and Zhou Furong all know.
Afraid that she would really beat people, Wei Jing immediately said: "Emperor Zhao, you are the first time to come back to Qin State, right?" There are many places in this prince's mansion with good scenery, let me take you to see it? ”
Zhao Huaiyan sat there and didn't move, and said lazily: "I just walked around, I'm tired, I don't want to move." ”
Wei Jing choked, he didn't expect Zhao Huaiyan to lose face at all.
He was also a little unhappy and stopped being a peacemaker.
Zhou Ke paused and said, "Then why don't we also go and send off Prince Han and the princesses?" ”
Zhao Huaiyan still didn't give face, he didn't lift his eyelids, and this time, he didn't respond, so he just sat there and didn't move.
She can give face to Qin Guo, but she will not give face to Wei Guo and Zhou Guo.
What are they!
Zhao Huaiyan's goal of coming to Qin State had been achieved, knowing Qin Zhi's intentions, she was going to leave, but Qin Shuang looked at her so unpleasantly, she didn't sit for a while, angry with her, how could she be worthy of the hatred of the whip, and the hatred of the finger.
Speaking of that one-finger hatred, Zhao Huaiyan couldn't help but look at Qin Shuang's hand.
The injured hand was covered by the sleeve, and I didn't see the little finger growing.
I don't think it has grown yet.
Zhao Huaiyan was suddenly in a very good mood, and even picked up the chess piece that Qin Zhi had just played and fiddled on the chessboard.
Wei Jing didn't go to make up for that, it was boring.
I don't touch the mold head for a while.
Both of them could see that Zhao Huaiyan was not kind to them.
Chu Shang was extremely cautious, and after marrying Qin Shuang, this caution was magnified more and more, and he only stayed behind Qin Shuang, not participating in any topics, nor expressing any opinions.
Wei Zhi and Zhou Furong are based on the interests of the Qin State, and here, they are standing in the same line with Qin Shuang, and it is impossible for them to play with Zhao Huaiyan.
Zhao Huaiyan fiddled with it alone.
After Qin Zhi sent away Prince Han and the three princesses, when he came back, what he saw was the scene of Zhao Huaiyan being isolated, he frowned, his face was not very good, he walked over and asked Zhao Huaiyan: "Want to play chess?" ”
Zhao Huaiyan raised his head lazily, glanced at him, and then lowered his head again, continued to fiddle with chess, his voice was not low, and asked, "Prince Han and the princesses are gone?" ”
Qin Zhi lifted his trouser robe, sat down opposite her, and said, "Hmm." ”
Zhao Huaiyan said: "Bored, let's play a game." ”
Qin Zhi smiled and glanced at her, she wanted to play, of course he was happy to accompany her, he hadn't played chess with her yet, it was still chess.
Qin Zhi called someone to serve tea.
Zhao Huaiyan glanced at the crowd around him, frowned and said, "I don't want to be watched." ”
Qin Zhi said: "There are many people. ”
Zhao Huaiyan threw the chess: "Then I won't play." ”
She got up and was about to leave.
Qin Zhi hurriedly stretched out his hand, grabbed her sleeve, and said helplessly: "Okay, okay, don't let people watch, sit down, I'll let them all go." ”
Wei Jing and Zhou Ke's eyes widened.
Qin Shuang glared at Qin Zhi angrily, turned his head and left.
Chu Shang followed and left.
Wei Zhi and Zhou Furong also hurriedly followed after Wei Jing and Zhou Ke were driven away.
Waiting for irrelevant people to leave, Qin Zhi did not touch the chess, Zhao Huaiyan no longer touched the chess, Qin Zhi leaned slightly, looking at Zhao Huaiyan opposite, she was holding the teacup, the thin white fingers buckled on the cup, tender as green onions, the moment she bowed her head slightly, the beauty was exquisite, when her lips pressed against the mouth of the cup, Qin Zhi suddenly felt a dry mouth, he suddenly turned his face away and looked at the pavilion in the distance.
After Zhao Huaiyan drank a cup of tea, he tapped the table and asked him, "What?" Didn't you say to play chess with me? ”
Qin Zhi turned his gaze with a smile and landed on her face, focused on the scorching heat, and said lightly: "You don't want to play chess with me, no matter what you want to ask, I won't say it." ”
Zhao Huaiyan sneered: "I really don't want to play chess with you, I just want to talk to you alone for a while." ”
Qin Zhi said: "About Han Yuyou? ”
Zhao Huaiyan said: "Some people, you shouldn't touch it, and you shouldn't think about it." ”
Qin Zhi pulled his lips and smiled extremely contemptuously: "Just a Korean princess, I want her, it is her Rongxing, as the emperor of Zhao State, you don't have the qualifications to speak and meddle, right?" ”
Zhao Huaiyan was angry: "Don't think I can't see what you want to do!" ”
Qin Zhi raised his eyebrows: "What if you can see it?" ”
Zhao Huaiyan squinted: "The heart is too big, sooner or later it will die." ”
Qin Zhi sneered: "Is my heart as big as Yan Chi's?" He's not afraid to die, I'm afraid? ”
Zhao Huaiyan took a deep breath, stood up, and left a sentence before leaving: "Try your best to win over the surrounding small countries, and you are not afraid of losing the face of your Qin country!" ”
Qin Zhi's face sank when he was said by this sentence, but he sat still and didn't move, and he kept watching Zhao Huaiyan walk away and leave, before he raised his foot and kicked the chessboard on the table.
Originally, there were palace maids waiting around.
But Zhao Huaiyan said that he didn't want people to watch, so those palace maids were all dismissed.
There is no one here at the moment.
The chessboard fell to the ground, making a very dull sound, but fortunately the quality was excellent, not broken, but the chess pieces were rolling in all directions, and they were scattered for a while.
Qin Zhi stood up and went to find Emperor Qin with anger.
He is going to marry Han Yuyou, so that South Korea and Zhao Guo will go against each other from now on!
For the sake of Zhao Huaiyan's heart, whether Yan Chi is important, or South Korea, which is a friend of the alliance, is important.
After Zhao Huaiyan left the Prince's Mansion of the Qin State, he walked all the way along the unknown street angrily, Qu Zhao followed behind, and called her for a long time before calling her to stop.
Qu Zhao looked around, there was no one on the street, she grabbed Zhao Huaiyan, and whispered: "Why is the emperor angry with Prince Qin." ”
Zhao Huaiyan pursed his lips: "I'm not angry with him, what qualifications does he have to make me angry." ”
Qu Zhao said: "Yes, so let's go back to the carriage." ”
Zhao Huaiyan thought about it and turned back again.
After pulling out his carriage, Qu Zhao asked, "Do you want to go back to China?" ”
Zhao Huaiyan shook his head and said, "No, go to Yan Kingdom." ”
Qu Zhao was stunned: "Huh? Right now? ”
Zhao Huaiyan said: "Hmm." ”
Qu Zhao choked on his breath, swallowed his saliva, glanced at her lightly, and thought, why are you going to Yan Country to find Emperor Yan?
What to do with Emperor Yan at this time?
After the New Year, I will get married in a few months, so it's not a blatant past, right?
Qu Zhao thought like this, and he hesitated a little.
Zhao Huaiyan saw that she was delaying the carriage, and said dissatisfiedly: "What are you rubbing, hurry up and catch the carriage." ”
Qu Zhao reminded very responsibly: "Your Majesty, go to Emperor Yan at this time, isn't it okay?" ”
Zhao Huaiyan asked rhetorically: "What's wrong?" I'm going to give him a New Year's greeting. ”
Qu Zhao coughed low and said, "If you want to worship, Emperor Yan will worship you first, and we can't send it to the door." ”
Zhao Huaiyan was stunned for a while, and laughed: "What do you think I'm going to do?" I think today's events are very dangerous, and writing letters is a bit troublesome, time-consuming and laborious, so it is better to talk to him in person and think of a solution. ”
Qu Zhao asked, "Is it about Prince Qin marrying Princess Yuyou?" ”
Zhao Huaiyan said in a low tone: "Well, this is not as simple as marrying a princess of a country. ”
Qu Zhao didn't say it anymore, she had been by Zhao Huaiyan's side for so many years, could she not understand the twists and turns in this? Now the most powerful country is the Yan State, and the Qin State has formed a gang like this and gathered small countries, which shows its wolf ambitions.
I really have to talk about this matter with Emperor Yan.
Qu Zhao raised his whip, turned the head of the car, and went in the direction of Yan Kingdom.
Yan Chi sent Yan Guangning, Lou Wei and Hua Diao to Qin, but before they arrived at the imperial capital of Qin, Zhao Huaiyan left, yes, after the three of them went to the Qin Prince's Mansion, they did not meet Zhao Huaiyan, but were left by Qin Zhi for dinner.
After dinner, Lou Wei and Hua Diao both considered that Yan Guangning had traveled a long distance and was extremely tired, she was not a martial arts practitioner, and it was already the limit to be able to come in such a fast time, and if she tossed again, something would happen, so the three of them responded to Qin Zhi's retention and stayed.
But the next day, something happened to Huadiao.
At this time, Zhao Huaiyan had just set foot on the territory of Yan Kingdom, and after entering the imperial city, he went all the way to the palace.
Yan Chi heard the palace people's announcement, saying that Emperor Zhao was coming, he was almost startled, and suddenly stood up in the dragon chair, walked to the door, stared at the palace people and asked, "Who did you say is coming?" ”
The palace man replied: "Emperor Zhao." ”
Yan Chi was incredulous, and soon, joy flew up his eyebrows, he raised his neck to look, and asked in a slightly eager tone, "Where is she?" ”
The palace man said to come to the door.
Yan Chi immediately walked down the steps to greet him.
As soon as I went out, I saw a woman who seemed to be frozen, Qu Zhao was wrapping a fox fur around her, and the palace maid was handing her a stove, and what was worse was that she seemed to have a cold, exhaling white air from her mouth, and sneezing non-stop.
Yan Chi tightened his heart all of a sudden, he had never felt that the winter of Yan Kingdom was cold before, nor did he feel annoying, but looking at her, he felt for the first time that the winter of Yan Kingdom was not too cold.
Immediately, he hated her, how could he freeze her!
Yan Chi walked over worriedly, stretched out his hand to hug the woman with her head down, took away the stove in her hand, and handed it to the palace maid on the side.
He put her hand under his armpit to warm her, then lowered his head, kissed the tip of her red nose, and asked, "Why did you come here all of a sudden?" ”
