Chapter 25 Zhao Miao enters the palace
Xianyang Palace, in a pavilion, there are two short-footed black cases in the main and secondary respectively, and cups, spoons, bamboo chopsticks and other food utensils have been placed on the case, and there are several bell musicians on the side of the wall who are ringing a row of bells, and the tone is crisp and beautiful.
Then, the palace maids back and forth were filled with hot meals and all kinds of seasonal melons and fruits, and the jade ear cups were full of fine wine, and the aroma was overflowing.
A moment later, the First Emperor and the Qing Lady came together, and the music officials and palace maids all bowed down and were accompanied by a shout, and the Black Feather Guard also guarded the surroundings.
"Your Majesty, please." Mrs. Qing bent sideways and saluted, showing a variety of charms.
"Well, okay, you can also take a seat, you don't have to be polite to me."
What you can't get is the best, although the first emperor is rich in the world, and admires Mrs. Qing's promise that she is not strong, but he still often loses his mind to Mrs. Qing.
After the two sat down, they talked freely with each other, and at first they talked a little gossip, and then another palace maid brought a charcoal basin, and set up a gilded bronze bottle of warm wine, the wine bottle was full of wine, and after the heat came out of the fragrance, the palace maid would use a wooden spoon to serve the wine, and finally poured it into the ear cups of the two.
The First Emperor smiled and said, "Come, taste the wine that Ren Ao sent to me from Chudi, and it will only taste when it is warm." ”
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty's wine is not bad."
After speaking, Mrs. Qing picked up the wine glass with her hands staggered, and drank a glass under the cover of the embroidered plain sleeve robe, the action was very elegant, and after a little tasting, she smiled and said: "It is sweet and sweet, but there is no lack of wine, especially after it is boiled, it is pure and fragrant, and it is really a good wine." ”
"Haha, that's a good point." When the First Emperor heard that the beauty in his heart was satisfied, he smiled proudly, but in the end, he was a little dissatisfied: "It's just not strict and spicy enough, and it's still not as good as my Guanzhong wine." ”
"The wine of the Six Kingdoms is no bigger than my Qin spirits." Lady Qing knew the emperor's prejudice against the Six Kingdoms, so despite her different opinions, she still followed the emperor's words.
The First Emperor nodded with a little satisfaction, if it was said that he was trying to please him with the holy will, it was naturally Zhao Gao who was the best, but when it came to who could best make the dictatorial First Emperor accept his opinion, it was Mrs. Qing.
In the end, the First Emperor said with some meaning: "By the way, have you heard about Zhao Jun this time?" Although he did the right thing, he was still too arrogant, these people who died were all carefully cultivated by me, especially Zhao Cheng was more related to my eastern tour this time, you have to take care of it, if it weren't for his relationship with Ning'er, I wouldn't let him pass so easily. ”
"Thank you Your Majesty for your mercy, I have also heard about it, and I will beat him well when I have the opportunity in the future." Mrs. Qing nodded and said, she didn't know that this was the first emperor selling her love, but for the sake of her daughter, she had to take it.
The First Emperor smiled and nodded: "Well, I don't want to mention it again in the past, in addition, this time I lost so many people, and there is only one of the three major commanders in the Black Ice Terrace, you know a lot about the remnants of the Six Kingdoms, I want to hear your opinion, who should be the commander of the remnants of the Six Kingdoms this time?" ”
In fact, few people know that Mrs. Qing is not only the richest businessman in the world, but also relies on the business name to have an intelligence organization all over the world, although there is no force and professionalism, but relying on the convenience of businessmen, the flow of information is the fastest and most comprehensive.
Therefore, in the purging of the remnants of the Six Kingdoms, the First Emperor solicited the opinions of Mrs. Qing in many places, and Mrs. Qing's information was basically stated to the emperor.
After hearing this, Mrs. Qing thought for a moment and said: "This time, the movement of the remnants of the Six Kingdoms is particularly large, and the original two hundred elites are not enough, and because of Zhao Cheng, we have lost a lot of manpower, so I suggest that the remaining two hundred and fifty people all participate in the operation, and as for the choice of the leader and the head of the stage, His Majesty must personally decide." ”
"Well, that's what I thought, too." The First Emperor nodded, apparently pondering who would be in charge of the operation.

At this time, outside the attic, there were many palace maids hurriedly serving food back and forth, and one of the stewards in black clothes and cloth hats was hurrying around the square outside the attic, and scolded the subordinates who followed: "What are you doing? Knowing that His Majesty invited Mrs. Qing to a banquet, he actually let Xiaohe take leave? There are thirty-six dishes of food so far from here, and if the manpower is less than three quarters of an hour, you will be reprimanded together. ”
The reprimanded palace priest didn't dare to say a word, and then a clever little priest next to him said: "My lord, I know a palace maid named Xiao Miao, she just didn't want to leave here today, and her hands and feet are quite clever, why don't I let her stand outside the attic, and then a maid is in charge of eating, so that we don't have to eat a section, and the others on the way will be fine if they run faster." ”
Serving this section can be said to be the most time-wasting, because you have to salute the emperor, and you have to report the name of the dish to the emperor without hurry, so the delay time is the longest, if you omit this section, the speed can be at least doubled.
However, after hearing this, the steward reproached: "I said Qiu De, you haven't been in the Shangshi Hall for a short time, right?" The Shang Food Hall provides food for His Majesty, how can you allow others to interfere, you don't want to die? ”
Qiu De smiled and whispered: "My lord, this is also an impromptu response, who can afford to delay His Majesty's food time?" Besides, if she is only allowed to stand outside the attic and transfer, and does not touch the food in our Shang Shi Temple, there must be no problem with safety. Otherwise, we will be punished, and you will not be able to escape responsibility, will you? ”
"This" The steward hesitated after hearing this, and finally thought about how many years it would be fine, what could happen if it was just transferred, and he couldn't escape the responsibility if he delayed the time, so after hesitating for a moment, he nodded and agreed.
"Okay, you go and get back quickly."
"Okay, don't worry, I'll do business."
After hearing this, a trace of joy quickly flashed in Qiu De's eyes, not only can he get rich, but he can also climb the big tree of Zhao Gao, and the opportunity to develop in the future is not far away.
After a while, Qiu De brought that 'Xiao Miao', plump and graceful, charming eyes and peach mouth, even though he was wearing a palace maid's plain clothes, he looked beautiful like a flower.
"Meet your lordship." Zhao Miao bowed quietly, and at the same time was extremely nervous in her heart, what her father said to her yesterday has always been remembered by her, and she has become extremely vigilant since she entered the palace, but she is from a big family and has seen a lot of the world, so she did not show her feet under the disguise.
The steward saw Zhao Miao's eyes lit up, and flashed a trace of uncertainty, and finally pretended to say: "Well, I guess Qiu De told you, this time it is for the emperor on an errand, and there must be no mistakes, otherwise be careful of your head." ”
"Thank you for your advice, Miao'er will naturally be careful." Zhao Miao smiled deftly and saluted.
The steward was even happier when he heard this, and originally wanted to 'mention' a few words, but time did not allow it, so after hastily instructing the details, he let her and another palace maid stand outside the attic and wait for the meal.
However, the steward was not at ease, so he stood in the square outside the attic and stared, and after a few dishes, he found that this Zhao Miao was not only outstanding and polite, but also very dexterous and really good, so the steward finally stopped worrying, but always looked back and forth on Zhao Miao with a pair of colored eyes.
Qiu De looked at it next to him and smiled secretly, I'm afraid this is done.
Zhao Miao was standing outside the attic at this time and didn't notice the steward at all, and kept repeating in her heart, 'Husband, you wait, I will be able to avenge you soon'!
In the end, the steward approached Zhao Miao with a palace maid who passed the food, and said while vaguely grabbing Zhao Miao's hand. "This is the last dish, it is Mrs. Qing's favorite white fungus lotus seed porridge, you must not make a mistake, you know?"
Zhao Miao couldn't help but break free from the steward's hands in disgust, her face was a little unswerving, but the last time she heard that it was white fungus lotus seed porridge, she almost exclaimed, and took the tray with a stirring in her heart, Zhao Miao opened her mouth and said with a smile: "Yes, don't worry." ”
"Well, I'm relieved, when it's gone, you can come to me, I'm reminding you." The steward looked at Zhao Miao's back with a smile on his face, and couldn't help but think about it again.
Zhao Miao didn't bother to take care of the matter, but followed behind another palace maid who was eating, and Shi Shiran walked towards the pavilion.
It's just that when passing through the no-man's land at the corner of the corridor, she deliberately fell half a step behind, and quietly scattered the medicinal powder hidden in her sleeve on the lotus seed porridge, and finally stirred it with a spoon, Zhao Gao said that this aphrodisiac was prepared by him, colorless and tasteless, and it would attack after two hours, and there would be no abnormalities at first, but the attack was very powerful, and it was difficult to stop even if you were a chaste martyr.
"Mrs. Qing, don't blame me, if you want to blame, blame your daughter and Zhao Jun, the two dog men and women, if it weren't for their blame and your protection, how could my husband and uncle die." Zhao Miao, who was sad and angry in her heart, said secretly and hurried up again.
After entering the attic, a palace maid in front of her put food on the long case of the First Emperor, and Zhao Miao secretly glanced at Mrs. Qing, then walked forward and bowed down and put down the lotus seed porridge: "This is the white fungus lotus seed porridge that Mrs. wants." ”
Mrs. Qing didn't say anything after hearing this, in fact, she didn't care about a palace maid at all, but when Zhao Miao retreated, she suddenly felt that this palace maid's appearance was really a little prominent, so she looked at Zhao Miao twice.
Zhao Miao was bowing and retreating, and suddenly felt Mrs. Qing's gaze and was frightened, and she almost stumbled in a panic thinking that Mrs. Qing suspected her, but fortunately, Mrs. Qing just looked at it, and turned her eyes to the lotus seed porridge, and took a sip with a spoon, this is one of her habits, every time there is no white fungus lotus seed porridge is not happy.
Seeing this, Zhao Miaocai withdrew from the palace with confidence, and breathed a sigh of relief, and then successfully left the palace with the help of the people arranged by Zhao Gao.
In the attic, every dish of food of the First Emperor will be tested by the maid with a silver needle before use, this is to prevent people from poisoning, although the Shang Shi Hall has a strict review process to ensure that there are no problems, but the First Emperor is always extremely careful, so it will be so.
"Qing'er, you don't have to give it a try." While eating the food, the First Emperor looked at Mrs. Qing with a smile and motioned for her to try it with a silver needle.
Mrs. Qing shook her head with a smile and said: "No need, Your Majesty's status should be like this, and I am just a businesswoman, how can there be problems, besides, this is in His Majesty's Palace, safe and naturally assured." ”
After the First Emperor heard this, he smiled and didn't say much, just now he just said in passing, Mrs. Qing was only a little humble, and the two of them were not thinking about food at all, and after eating for a while, they talked about the remnants of the Six Kingdoms.
It wasn't until half an hour had passed that the two of them had basically finished eating, and after enjoying a period of singing and dancing with the maidservants, Mrs. Qing took her farewell and left.
*****
In Xianyang City, in the secret room of Zhao Gao's outer mansion, Zhao Miao was telling Zhao Gao about what happened in the palace today.
After hearing this, Zhao Gao suddenly said: "Okay, you did a good job, you try not to go out in the past two days, don't make people suspicious of the funeral, I will let Zhao Fu help you, and you have to take good care of the other two children." ”
"Yes, father." After hearing this, Zhao Miao said that Zhao Hu is the son of Zhao Gao, and now he is also in the CRRC Mansion, and the two children are Yan Le and Zhao Cheng who left a son and a daughter.
After Zhao Miao withdrew, there was another black-clothed masked man in the secret room, tall and agile, Zhao Gao was not much surprised when he saw the visitor, but said in a deep voice: "How is the matter going?" ”
"Back to Master Hou, Mrs. Qing went back to Tingfeng Courtyard." The man in black said hoarsely.
"Listen to the wind?" Zhao Gao was stunned for a moment, and then laughed and said, "Haha, God help me." ”
After that, Zhao Gao said: "You will do what I tell you now, but you must carefully consider the manpower, and it is best to buy some people who don't know the inside story and have no background to do it." In addition, we must also grasp the time well, and we must not act without my orders. ”
"No." The black-clothed man turned and disappeared into the secret room, acting swiftly and neatly.
And Zhao Gao suddenly laughed alone in the secret room at this time, and finally said with a gloomy face: "Wait, Zhao Jun, your death is coming, and there is still the blood debt of the year, don't even think about escaping!" ”
In the end, Zhao Gao left the secret room, changed his clothes, and directly ordered the servants to drive to Xianyang Palace to meet the emperor.
