CHAPTER XVI

The grand palace banquet to welcome the winning monarch and ministers was held in the palace as scheduled. A number of princes and nobles of Zhao State, as well as the ladies of various families. Especially those female dependents, dressed like peach blossoms, and the silk and satin make them more graceful. Those who are out of the cabinet don't want to lose their appearance, and those who don't go out of the cabinet are looking forward to being taken back to Qin by the king of the Great Qin Empire, even if they are ordinary ladies, they are satisfied.

I don't know if I really want to please King Qin or if I want to show it, so that Qin Guo can see that Zhao Guo is still rich in food and clothing, and there is no shortage of wealth or things, and the palace banquet scene is really unprecedentedly luxurious.

Ying Zheng and King Zhao both sat on the main seat, and on each side below sat the important ministers of Qin and Zhao, and the other female dependents sat on the periphery. The two raised their glasses and drank each other, and the military officials below were also harmonious, as if they were confidants if they drank more than meat.

Although King Zhao watched Win Zheng's face leak with joy, his heart was turbulent: If he had made a decision to take Win Zheng's life as soon as possible, would it not be the scene today?

He came back to his senses: "I don't want to say goodbye for ten years, King Qin is now such a king, but this king is getting old every year, and he is beginning to be powerless, and he can't be compared with King Qin in the future." ”

"King Zhao is in his prime, why can't he say it?"

"When the age comes, you have to serve the old, and what you can't keep is time. Compared with the King of Qin, this king is indeed inferior to you as a descendant, but fortunately, the king of Qin thinks highly and is willing to marry Zhao Guo, so that this king can still touch the momentum of the king of Qin. If someone comes to offend, I should be a little afraid of my relationship with King Qin. ”

Ying Zheng's gentle expression didn't show any emotion, and he smiled slightly: "No matter who it is, King Zhao will definitely choose the best Zhao Guozhu for me to marry, how can I refrain from such affection?" It's just that King Zhao doesn't know, my harem is as beautiful as a cloud, but the heirs have always been unthinkable, therefore, the best Xiangshi in Daqin divined for me and learned that I will have both children in this life, but ordinary women can't extend the heirs for me, and I need a woman who has a perfect combination of life and me, so that there is no shortage of children. ”

Liu Chang, Meng Tian, and Meng Yi were close, and Ying Zheng's words almost made the three of them almost suffocate internal injuries. Especially Liu Chang, the food he just swallowed was stuck in his throat and couldn't come up, looking at Ying Zheng's face was not red and his heart was not beating, he "worshipped" his king very much.

He knew that his king was a great Tibetan master, and no one would ever know what he wanted to do next. I thought that the king was here to find the little fairy, at most, he just took a princess back to make a show.

Now he understood that the king of his family didn't want any princess of Zhao at all. There are countless beauties in the harem, obviously he is still a boy chicken, and he can't say that he wants an heir. Never go to plough at night, where do you come from? If there really is, it must be a lady who stole someone.

Look at it, even the ministers all over the world say that there is a princess and he are born a pair, as long as he says that the eight characters do not match, then he can only disagree, because he himself is the Xiangshi, and love can be counted as he wants.

Speaking of which, he just wants his little fairy to give birth to children for him. I really want to pray for God's blessing, the little fairy is alive and sound, and the most important thing is that she is not married, otherwise the king of his family may really have to break off.

King Zhao's face stiffened uncomfortably, because he couldn't guess what Ying Zheng meant, and he didn't know what to say for a while, so he could only raise his wine glass and pretend to drink.

Liang Wan, who was sitting next to King Zhao, had been observing her words and feelings, and saw that there was something in Ying Zheng's words, and saw that her husband was faintly unhappy, she smiled and said to Ying Zheng: "King Qin is a noble character, how can ordinary women match it?" However, no matter how difficult it is to match, the world must be able to find a lucky woman who can match, otherwise how can King Qin's wisdom and martial arts and talents be inherited? ”

Liang Wan was both relieved and worried, and the name of "Zheng'er" in the past is now so high. On the one hand, he was pleased that he had become mature, steady, and courageous, and his achievements in just ten years were better than the efforts of many kings in their lifetimes. It is precisely because of his terrible majesty and strategy that how long can the princes and countries of the world be maintained?

"By the queen's auspicious words, this time Yingzheng personally came to Zhao to select and hire, first, to Zhao Guo's outstanding people, and secondly, to choose a good woman, you must choose a country with a good queen, and the female dependents led by a virtuous and virtuous queen will never go anywhere. What's more, Zhao Guo still has the grace to raise me, and the first choice is naturally Zhao Guo. ”

"King Qin praises falsely, virtuous and virtuous don't dare to be, just try his best to do his duty."

The polite but distant attitude of winning the government made Liang Wan feel a little sad in her heart, if it was really a matter of people, she left a glass of water, light and tasteless.

"Since King Qin is so troubled, he is not in a hurry to get married, tonight is a happy moment to drink, sing and dance, and talk about it tomorrow, now I invite King Qin to appreciate the dance carefully arranged by our Zhao Kingdom, I hope to sweep away King Qin's troubles."

King Zhao is not a person who does nothing, he can sit on the throne for more than ten or twenty years, and he can also govern the Zhao State from a defeated situation to come back to life, and he is not a simple character.

Although he didn't know what the purpose of winning politics was, he naturally knew in his heart that the statement of matching was just an excuse for winning politics. Then they will not move each other, and they will see through it without saying it.

"The guest is as he pleases, and it is better to be respectful than to obey his orders." Ying Zheng calmly did not say much.

Liang Wan reacted very quickly, clapped her palms, and the musician played music. Along with the music, a group of dancers wearing green dresses and soft bodies appeared.

In the middle, a dancer wearing a purple dance dress, a purple veil, and a pair of beautiful eyes is the leading dancer, and the dance is orderly and graceful. Especially under the soundtrack of the musicians, it is even more fascinating and beautiful.

Everyone watched attentively, and the wine and meat were put down, as if dancing was more satisfying than food. After a climactic finishing move, the green-clothed dancers retreated silently, and the dancers who left the purple dancers still kept their waists leaning, their hands raised, and the orchid fingerprints did not move at all, which shows that their dancing skills are not bad.

Just when everyone thought the performance was over, the music began again, and the purple dancer spun gracefully again. Her limbs fit perfectly, jumping in mid-air, and her purple body fluttered through, and in an instant, it was like a fairy stepping on the clouds.

The applause in the hall was thunderous, and they all shouted: good, good, good. Winning Zheng's face did not change, he was not amazed, nor did he dislike it, he picked up his wine glass and drank unhurriedly.

King Zhao and Liang Wan secretly looked at Ying Zheng's expression, but they couldn't see anything special. They looked at each other and tacitly knew what a terrible person it must be to be to hide their joys, sorrows, and sorrows so deeply.

The music finally stopped, and the purple dancer sat firmly on the ground with one last graceful spin. The applause thundered again, and everyone praised her for her excellent dancing like an immortal.

The purple-clothed dancer didn't care about other people's praises, her eyes secretly looked at Ying Zheng, and found that Ying Zheng didn't pay too much attention to her, but just picked up the wine glass and toasted to King Zhao and Liang Wan: "King Zhao and King Consequence are really kind to Ying Zheng, I have never seen such a dance in my life, it must be a lot of trouble, I am really grateful." After saying that, he raised his glass and drank it all.

"King Qin praises falsely, the little girl is not talented, she has no ability, only she loves dancing since she was a child, and she is quite passable. Knowing that King Qin was coming, he practiced hard day and night a month ago, saying that it would be good to relax King Qin's tiring travel. ”

"Could it be that the woman who danced in the hall just now is the princess of the king?"

Ying Zheng pretended to be surprised, and sighed: "No wonder the dance is like coming down from the sky," Ying Zheng said and looked at the woman in purple standing in the main hall.

"King Qin and Ximo met when they were children, I don't know if King Qin remembers?" Liang Wan said and beckoned to the purple-clothed girl: "Ximo, come and see King Qin." ”

The girl stepped forward, and her slender hand lifted to remove the veil. The delicate facial features are especially beautiful, and the skin is even more white and red because it has just finished dancing, and it is flawless. A pair of youthful eyes looked at Ying Zheng with affection, she remembered him, she met him once when she was a child, but she knew that he was just a proton at that time, and she didn't pay much attention to him, even if he looked better than anyone else.

"Ximo greets King Qin." Elegant and decently committed, she secretly hopes to remember her in the memory of Win Zheng.

"The princess doesn't have to be polite, thank you for bothering to bend over and dance for me. The queen said that we had met when I was a child, although I can't remember, but when I was a child, I heard that the princess danced best, and today I am afraid that it is a peerless appearance. ”

Hearing that Ying Zheng said that he didn't remember, Ximo felt very uncomfortable. He thinks he is beautiful and outstanding, and he has been an unforgettable appearance since he was a child, but he said he couldn't remember. However, he is sure that his dancing skills still leave a good impression on him, as long as he tries hard to make him like him, plus his identity as a princess, no matter what, he must be the one who is chosen to marry.

What other king in the world has such ability and appearance, and what kind of scenery it is to be the wife of Qin, she must marry King Qin as she wishes.

"Thank you King Qin for your appreciation, Ximo feels very honored."

Ying Zheng smiled casually and didn't say anything more, Xi Mo still wanted to say something, seeing that he raised his wine glass and drank again, he felt ashamed, and Liang Wan asked her to sit next to him to resolve the embarrassment.

King Zhao was a little annoyed in his heart, he thought that his favorite princess Yan personally danced for Win Zheng, and with Xi Mo's beauty, how could he attract his attention. I didn't expect Win Zheng to look interesting at all, just a few words of greeting, and it passed without pain.

The banquet did not end until late at night, and when Ying Zheng said goodbye to King Zhao and Liang Wan, Liang Wan said that he wanted to say something to him alone. The two moved to a quiet place, and Liang Wan asked, "Is your mother okay?" ”

Mention the mother. Ying Zheng's heart ached, and his eyebrows jumped: "Queen Lao is worried, and my mother is very good." He didn't want to say more.

"That's good, I haven't seen you for many years, and it's best if you're okay. Now you have also become the King of Qin who everyone respects and promising. Liang Wan paused and hesitated a little: "Since King Qin is here to choose a relative, what kind of ladies does King Qin fancy today?" ”

"The queen is very loving, and the arrangements are all phoenixes among people, but it will take time to slowly pick out the candidates for this matter, and then let the Xiangshi match the eight characters. If there is a suitable person, it is the best. I am also looking forward to being able to choose a Ruyi lady in Zhao State. ”

"What does King Qin think?" Liang Wan didn't beat around the bush, she saw that her daughter was afraid that King Qin had made a promise, but King Qin didn't seem to have any intention. If this is the case, I am afraid that it is also an inconsequential lady who is forced to marry into the Qin State, so how can I talk about happiness in the second half of my life.

I have lived in the palace all my life, and the rise and fall of honor and disgrace are staged every day. In the early years, she was favored by King Zhao wholeheartedly, but now the love and honey have long been a thing of the past, and it is the norm for the harem for the new to replace the old, and now the King of Zhao is only respectful to her.

He started with love with King Zhao, but in the end he ended up staying alone in the empty house, not to mention that Ximo was not what King Qin wanted from the beginning.

"Princess Ximo is naturally excellent, if it is really fate, it will be my blessing."

Liang Wan knew that there was no need to confirm anything, she probably guessed that Zhao Zheng had another purpose. As a woman, I can't manage too much, so I can only find a way to dispel my thoughts, so as not to end up with more gains than losses.
