Before the eight sons arrived, angry shouts came from outside the hall. Hearing this, the ministers looked in the direction from which the voice came. Qin Wangji didn't expect his mother to appear in the court, and suddenly, his heart tightened. After a while, Mi Bazi had a good appearance and elegant demeanor, and walked into the main hall.

Seeing this, the ministers shouted: "See the Queen Mother." ”

Qin Wangji stabilized his mind and asked casually, "Queen Mother, why are you here?" ”

Mi Bazi walked to the front of the hall and didn't give Qin Wangji a good face, "Here, can't I come?" ”

Qin Wangji replied in a calm tone: "According to Qin's law, the queen mother should not appear in this place. ”

Mi Bazi said: "The king of Qin uses Qin law as a rhetoric. Then I'll add one to the Qin law. ”

Qin Wangji hurriedly said: "The Qin law was formulated by the ancestors, how can it be increased at will." ”

"Qin Law is not in accordance with the rules, then it has to be changed." Mi Bazi turned his back to the minister and asked, "Ministers, I am right. ”

The ministers hurriedly catered to it.

Qin Wangji saw that Mi Bazi was arrogant, and none of the ministers spoke out against it, and his heart was already in a mess. Mi Bazi walked towards Qin Wangji step by step, his eyes spewing angry flames. That flame wanted to devour Qin Wangji.

Mi Bazi glared at Qin Wangji angrily, and said lightly: "King Qin is doing nonsense, how can I not come." ”

Qin Wangji's eyes dodged around, and his tone trembled slightly, "Queen Mother, where do you say this." ”

"King Qin hid from me, so I had to come here to see you." Mi Bazi paused and asked, "King Qin plans to send Gongzi Fu to envoy Qi as a hostage. Whether it is true or not. ”

Qin Wangji stabilized his mind, and said unyieldingly: "Exactly." ”

"I don't agree with King Qin's edict." Mi Bazi turned his back to the minister and waved his hand.

Seeing that the ministers were about to leave, Qin Wangji said angrily: "The widow has not said that he will disperse the dynasty, who dares to leave." ”

Mi Bazi's eyes surged with a strong murderous aura, and he said lightly: "Who has the final say here, have you forgotten?" ”

One is the King of Qin, and the other is the powerful Empress Dowager Mi. If you go, you will offend the King of Qin. If you don't leave, you will offend the Empress Dowager again. If you offend King Qin, you will be scolded at most, or lose your official position. However, the Empress Dowager Mi could never afford to offend. The ministers recalled that the Empress Dowager Mi's methods of killing opponents such as Empress Hui and the clan surnamed Ying are still terrifying.

Empress Dowager Mi is ruthless, they have seen it.

Although Qin Wangji is the king of Qin, the power of life and death is still in the hands of Mi Bazi. Since it is a conflict between their mother and son, they should not be involved in it. After a brief period of thought, the ministers bowed three times and bowed out.

Seeing this, Qin Wangji was furious: "If you dare to walk out of the main hall, don't blame the widow for being ruthless." ”

When the minister heard this, he stopped.

Mi Bazi turned around, and his eyes exuded a strong killing intent. The ministers looked at that gaze and walked out of the hall quickly.

Qin Wangji said in his heart: "Widows, after all, they can't deter the ministers and fight with their mothers." ”

Mi Bazi turned his head, looked at the lost Qin Wangji, and asked, "King Qin, now you finally understand, who is in charge of the Qin State." ”

Qin Wangji was so oppressed by Mi Bazi's body that he exuded a powerful aura and was about to suffocate. It turned out that from beginning to end, Qin Guo was not in his hands. It has been five years since he succeeded to the throne. Today, he is over twenty-five years old.

In the past five years, he and the state of Chu became the country of Kundi, and after marrying the daughter of Chu, he dismantled the conspiracy of Chu and Zhao. Subsequently, Qin Wangji sent troops to attack Han and Wei on the grounds that Qi, Han, and Wei were attacking the allied Chu State. Then, because the prince of Chu killed the doctor of Qin, the Qin State isolated the Chu State on the grounds that the Chu State betrayed the alliance, and united Qi, Han, and Wei to defeat Chu.

In the past five years, the king of Qin attacked Han and Wei, attacked the state of Chu, and made meritorious contributions. He thought that he had established a prestige in the Qin State, and the ministers were loyal to him. Because of his self-confidence, he had the courage to confront Mi Bazi and weaken the power of his relatives. However, Qin Wangji only understood at this moment, no matter how hard he tried. These ministers recognized the Queen Mother, not him.

The Qin State has the Empress Dowager, so there is no Qin Wangji.

Qin Wangji was defeated, and he was defeated so completely.

Qin Wangji was also unwilling, and he would not easily admit that he had failed, "Mother, you won." Whether or not to abolish me. ”

Mi Bazi said contemptuously: "You think I don't dare." ”

Qin Wangji had already prepared in his heart, since he had lost a mess, the man's ambition still had to be preserved, "Mother wants to abolish me, I have nothing to say." In my mother's heart, I never existed. Mother has been waiting for this day for a long time! ”

Mi Bazi looked at Qin Wangji's resentful eyes, and said lightly: "I can set you up, or I can abolish you." ”

Qin Wangji's expression was not afraid, "I am established by Yan and Zhao. If my mother abolishes me, she will offend Yan and Zhao. Even if the minister is supportive of his mother, the subjects of the Qin State will not be loyal to you. Don't forget the queen mother, the world of Qin is the man surnamed Ying who has the final say. If my mother wants to seize the world of Qin, she will only provoke the anger of the heavens. ”

"Today's Qin State is no longer the Qin State of five years ago. Even if Yan and Zhao attack Qin, I have nothing to fear. Mi Bazi said coldly: "King Qin is right, the world of Qin is the man surnamed Ying. I depose you and make Fu'er king. The subjects of the Qin State will not oppose me either. ”

Qin Wangji suddenly understood that in the past few years, his mother had been guarding against him and had never believed him.

Mi Bazi said that Qin Wangji was abolished. But she didn't dare to turn what she said into reality.

Mi Bazi really abolished Qin Wangji, and what she challenged was to maintain the etiquette system of the princes, offending the entire princes of the world. Naturally, the princes of the world would not see Qin Wangji deposed, and they would not send troops to rescue. Once the Qin State breaks the precedent, the relatives in the vassal states will follow the example of the Qin State and abolish the monarch and stand on their own. Mi Bazi's words were just to intimidate King Qin. If she really dared to abolish him, she would have done it a long time ago, so why wait until now.

Seeing that Qin Wangji was frightened by her words, Mi Bazi forced him to ask, "Fu'er, I have already given up the throne to you." Why are you so ruthless and send him to the Qi country as a hostage? ”

Qin Wangji quickly recovered from his lost eyes and replied, "Mother said that I was ruthless, and that was ruthless. ”

"Have I wronged you?"

"Prince Chu is in Qi as a hostage. Relations between Qi and Chu are bound to improve. Qi and Chu had good relations, which was not good for Qin. I am the king of Qin, so naturally I don't want to see Qi and Chu befriended and threaten the interests of our country. ”

"What does this have to do with Fu'er going to Qi as a hostage?"

"The State of Chu sent the Prince of Chu to Qi, showing the sincerity of friendship. If our country wants to divide Qi and Chu, we must also send people to Qi as hostages. ”

"You send people into Qi as hostages, I have no objection." Mi Bazi asked: "Why do you want to send Fu'er to Qi State, he is your own brother." ”

Qin Wangji sneered: "Back then, my father sent me to Yan Kingdom as a hostage, and my mother persuaded my father. ”

Mi Bazi was stunned for a moment, and Fang said: "Sending you to Yan Kingdom, this is your father's idea, and it is also the opinion of the courtiers." How can I interfere with my humble words. ”

"My mother loves me just like she loves my brother, how can she watch me go to Yan Country as a hostage." Qin Wangji's tone was full of hatred, "Mother, you have never loved me. ”

Sending Gongzi Ji to Yan Country as a hostage, Mi Bazi couldn't do anything. Because of this, she had a deep sense of guilt towards Qin Wangji. In the past few years, she has tried her best to make up for her debt to Qin Wangji. I also want to soothe the wounds in Qin Wangji's heart.

When Mi Bazi thought that Qin Wangji was supported by Zhao Jun and took the throne of Fu'er, he couldn't let go of his heart. Mi Bazi couldn't do anything to Zhao Jun, let alone attack Zhao State, so he had to transfer all his anger towards Zhao Jun to Qin Wangji. Mi Bazi's hatred for Qin Wangji outweighed his guilt.

Mi Bazi looked at the child's resentful eyes and said coldly: "Before, I couldn't protect you, I could only obey the destiny of heaven. Now, I have the power to protect you. How can you obey the destiny of heaven? ”

Qin Wangji's heart was inexplicably sore, his mother, there was never him in his heart. It turned out that he was superfluous and dispensable. Qin Wangji no longer fell into sadness, and said coldly: "Only by sending Brother Fu to Qi as a hostage can we reflect the sincerity of our country." ”

"Sincerity?" Mi Bazi snorted coldly: "You were born to me." I don't know what you think in your heart. ”

"Brother Fu is my mother's son, am I not born to my mother." Qin Wangji's expression was sad, and his tone was sad, "Mother hates me for taking away the throne that originally belonged to Brother Fu. In the past few years, the mother has seen the child with her own eyes. ”

"King Qin hates me, and I have nothing to say. King Qin should not hate his brother. Fu'er and Kui'er are your brothers. You should be close to each other and support each other. Mi Bazi's tone was cold, "Send Fu'er to Qi as a hostage, I will never agree." ”

"I have informed my subjects and sent the credentials to the state of Qi. It's okay if my mother hates me, and she doesn't agree. Qin Wangji paused, his tone was cold, "Unless my mother abolishes me, I will make my brother the king." Otherwise, if Brother Fu goes to Qi State, I will not change it. Mother can only choose one between me and my brother. ”

Although Qin Wangji understood that his mother would choose his younger brother, he still didn't vomit or be unhappy.

Whether it is Qin Wangji or Gongzi Fu, the palms and backs of the hands are meat. Back then, King Qin Hui sent Gongzi Ji to Yan Kingdom as a hostage, but she couldn't do anything, and she was full of guilt for this son. Gongzi Fu was supposed to be the king of Qin, but took the initiative to give way. It also made Mi Bazi's heart full of regret and guilt. Mi Bazi once vowed to make Gongzi Fu a nobler and richer person than King Qin.

Qin Wangji issued an edict to inform his subjects, and also informed the state of Qi in the form of a letter of state. Gongzi Fu did not go to the Qi State, and the Qin State and the Qi State were at odds. Qin Wangji's prestige will also be swept away. Gongzi Fu went to Qi State, and Mi Bazi couldn't bear it, and he was ashamed of him. Mi Bazi chooses one son, and he is destined to lose another son.

At this moment, it is really necessary for Mi Bazi to choose between Qin Wangji and Gongzi Fu. For a while, Mi Bazi didn't know who to choose.

Wei Ran and Mi Rong saw the contradiction between King Qin and Mi Bazi, and they were about to erupt. The slightest carelessness will cause political turmoil in the Qin State. Wei Ran and Qi Rong can't stop it. They also know that Gongzi Fu is the key to resolving the contradiction between King Qin and Mi Bazi.

When Gongzi Fu heard the news, uneasiness swelled in his heart. He knew his mother's temper and would never let him go to Qi as a hostage. He didn't want to let his mother and King Qin have trouble because of himself.

Gongzi Fu, Wei Ran, and Mi Rong came to the palace.

Gongzi Fu saw that his mother and brother had already made a fuss, and hurriedly said: "Mother, it is the child's own intention to go to Qi country." ”

Gongzi Fu's words came out, not only Mi Bazi was stunned for a while. Even Qin Wangji didn't believe what he heard with his ears.

Mi Bazi eased his emotions and asked, "Fu'er, do you know what a proton is." ”

Gongzi Fu replied in a relaxed tone: "The proton is to be a hostage of another country." ”

Seeing that Fu'er didn't know the meaning of the proton at all, Mi Bazi asked again: "Do you know what the fate of the proton is?" ”

"Son, how can you not understand." Gongzi Fu smiled: "I am a hostage in Qi and far away from Qin." You can't control your own destiny. Once Qi and Qin fought, I would be the first person to die for Qin. ”

Mi Bazi said angrily: "You understand, why do you want to go to Qi Country as a hostage." ”

Gongzifu knew that his mother was worried about his safety, and said with a smile: "I am a hostage in Qi State, and my mother will not let Qi and Qin fight each other." Qin and Qi are good friends, and my life is worry-free. ”

Mi Bazi glared at him, "I can't control the development of the situation." ”

"My brother was a hostage in Yan Kingdom, didn't he come back safely?" Gongzi Fu sighed: "I can't come back, I can only blame the child's thin life." ”

Wei Ran also said: "Sister, Fu'er going to Qi Country is not necessarily a curse, not a blessing." ”

Mi Bazi said: "You are confused, or am I confused." ”

Wei Ran said: "Fu'er is already an adult, how can she always grow up under the protection of her sister." Sister, you should let Fu'er go out to practice. ”

Qi Rong also said: "Fu'er went to Qi Country to see the outside world. If an eagle wants to see the world, it must learn to fly alone. ”

Gongzi Fu saw that his mother's expression was soft, and he hurriedly said: "Mother, I promise you that I will come back alive." ”

Mi Bazi thought about it, and also felt that Wei Ran and Mi Rong were right. She has always kept Gongzi Fu by her side, which may not be a good thing for him. Gongzi Fu went to Qi as a hostage, but also for the country, but also to establish their own prestige. Once, the Qin State has changed, Gongzi Fu can also gain a foothold.

"You're right, it's my foolish opinion." After Mi Bazi finished speaking, he left the palace.

Wei Ran and Qi Rong chased after him.

The contradiction between Qin Wangji and Mi Bazi has finally been alleviated. Qin Wangji walked out of the main hall, stared at the blue sky and white clouds, looked at the birds that crisscrossed the world, and asked Gongzi Fu on the side: "Why do you want to help me." ”

"I said I'd go the way you walked, go through it. What you go through, go through once. Gongzi Fu met Qin Wangji's eyes, "I am willing to go to Qi State." ”

Three days later, Gongzi Fu worshiped the eight sons of Mi, Qin Wangji and others, and embarked on the road to Qi as a hostage.

Leaving Xianyang Palace, Gongzi Fu's convoy stopped. Gongzi Fu looked at the Xianyang City in front of him, where he had lived for more than 20 years. After this time, I don't know when I will return.

One person asked, "Childe, can we still go back to the Qin Kingdom?" ”

Gongzi Fu's eyes were bright and his tone was firm, "It won't be long before we come back." ”
