Chapter XII

The team protecting Zhao Zheng arrived at Xianyang City smoothly and as scheduled. Outside the city gate, on both sides of the passage into the city, civil and military officials greeted him. Almost the entire people of Xianyang City knew about the entry of the eldest son of the Qin State who had left Zhao State in the city today, so many people gathered inside and outside the city to watch this exciting moment.

Zhao Zheng rode thunder, scanning everyone on the horse, and there was no superfluous expression on his face except for giving people a restrained look.

The person standing at the forefront walked forward unhurriedly, and bowed down to Zhao Zheng to pay respects: "Minister Lü Buwei to meet Gongzi, I will be ordered by the King of Qin to welcome Gongzi back to Qin." ”

Zhao Zheng turned over and dismounted quietly: "There is Mr. Lao." "He returned the favor with dignity, neither humble nor arrogant. For Lü Buwei's name, he was already familiar with it and remembered it in his heart when he was in Zhao Guo. Zhao Ji's grievances are always inseparable from this Lu Buwei. So, the subconscious doesn't have a good impression of him.

Lü Buwei looked at Zhao Zheng, he had seen it when he was born, and now it has been twelve years. I thought it would be a cowardly teenager, and I didn't want to give people such a bold impression. Come to think of it, there should be no difference between being the king of Qin, but it may not be easy to handle it.

"Childe, please get in the carriage, the king is looking forward to the return of the prince day and night, and is now looking forward to it in the palace."

"If you can, don't blame sir, I want to use a horse to go to the palace gate, and then how to enter the palace to see the king, but it is up to Mr. to decide."

Zhao Zheng didn't mean to refuse, he just wanted to see what the scene of Xianyang City was like along the way and how the people lived. He is from Qin, but he did not grow up in Qin, and Qin is too strange to him.

Lü Buwei didn't stop much, and Wang Jian and Mengwu father and son rode horses close to protect them, so they went straight to the palace to clean up and went to see King Qin.

Because of his illness, he did not meet in formal settings, and the king of Qin did not see his eldest son until ten years later. Although he was sitting on the couch, his face was full of sickness, and he panted and looked at Zhao Zheng who was kneeling in front of him.

"Zheng'er... Ahem. Yiren stretched out his hand to Zhao Zheng.

Zhao Zheng also looked at Yiren at the same time, looking at Yiren, who was only in his forties, like the thin body of a sixty-year-old man, and he knew that he had been seriously ill for a long time. He hesitated for a moment, but moved forward and approached King Qin.

If there is any resentment in Zhao State, it is almost written off at this time. Although he gave birth to him and did not raise him, now he is forced to take him back because he has no suitable heir under his knees, or he really wants to save him back to Qin and reunite with him. This person who is about to end his life is his father, so what's the point of care?

"I don't have a long time to die, I should have closed my eyes a long time ago, in order to see your mother and son, fight with the sky, and live a few more days......." The Inhuman conversation was not over, and the breathless gasp made him have to stop and rest.

"My lord, now that I have returned safely, my mother will arrive in Xianyang soon, and then the king will get what he wants."

"The king? Hey, you call me king. It reminds me of when you first learned to speak, and the first thing you learned was your father. I also told your mother that she fed you, but she was the closest to me. Hehe... Ahem, your mother is still jealous, hehe. ”

The alien seems to have returned to the ordinary life of the ordinary people who lived with Zhao Ji as a hostage in the Zhao Kingdom. The world laughed at him for picking up the concubine that the lowly merchant Lü Buwei didn't want, and married him as a wife, he was even lower than the businessman.

But for the alien, he was so sad at that time that he could not be released. After befriending Lü Buwei, he also met Zhao Ji. Everyone laughed at him for being the son abandoned by Qin, and he was not treated well in Zhao State. Only Zhao Ji never gave him a look, and even treated him politely, which made him slowly like Zhao Ji.

Lü Buwei saw his feelings, so he gave Zhao Ji to him according to his wishes. The years when he was a husband and wife were his happiest time. Helplessly, the situation separated them, and the lives of Zhao Ji's mother and son were still in Zhao Kingdom, and they couldn't fight, so he waited and waited. I didn't have much time to feel my body.,So I took the risk to pick up their mother and son back.。。

"......" Zhao Zheng listened, but didn't know how to reply.

"You hate your father?"

"Hate." There was no mud and water, he answered truthfully.

"Hate? Yes, how can I not hate, I hated it myself back then. Inhuman wasn't surprised by his answer.

"The king forgives the sin, Zheng'er doesn't want to lie, but in any case, the king still let me return to the Qin country, so although the king and I haven't seen each other for many years, they are also recreated. In this way, it counteracts Zheng'er's resentment. ”

"Hahaha... Ahem, ahem. Obviously, it was not so pleasant to listen to, but Yiren suddenly felt comfortable. He laughed and said, "Why don't you take the opportunity to curry favor with me, you know, I haven't issued an edict to crown you the crown prince." ”

"Will the king not make me the crown prince because of this?"

"Then are you going to be the crown prince?"

"Why don't I do it?"

"How do you do that?"

"You don't have a choice."

"I still have your brother Yingtai."

"You promise me the position of crown prince, and I will give you a strong Qin invincible, and even the whole world."

"......" Yiren's originally dead eyes suddenly flashed, and he looked at his son who had abandoned him for many years wordlessly. If the one who comes back is an incompetent eldest son, then what is the difference between standing tall and young?

After a short father-son dialogue, Yiren finally felt at ease, and the future throne of Qin was none other than the eldest son. Everyone can talk about soldiers on paper, but seeing his son's determined eyes, he believes it.

Half a month later, Zhao Ji, Liu Chang, and Zhao Gao also arrived in Xianyang safely. Zhao Zheng took Wang Jian and Meng Tian at the gate of the city early in the morning, and saw Liu Chang and Zhao Gao riding in front, followed by the carriage and the army.

Liu Chang saw Zhao Zheng from a distance, jumped three times and jumped two times to Zhao Zheng, and hugged Zhao Zheng and spun around in mid-air. The accompanying officials were stunned, probably never seen such an impolite thing in their lives.

"Childe, my son, you want to kill me, I have pulled you up since I was a child, and I say that if you don't see you for a day, you will be separated by three autumns, how many autumns have we been apart?" said that he deliberately cried with a sad face and cried loudly, for fear that others would not believe how much he missed his son-in-law.

Zhao Zheng played monkey with him, and he didn't refuse his stinky sweat. can see Liu Chang's unscrupulous and lawlessness again, and he is extremely happy in his heart. But he didn't approve of Liu Chang saying that he was pulling him up: "When you followed me, I was eight years old." ”

"What's wrong with being eight years old, it doesn't prevent me from taking care of you for four years, I haven't even served the old man like this, serving you, serving you so much that even I myself was moved by myself."

"Alright, go meet your mother." Seeing his mother's carriage gradually approaching, Zhao Zheng pushed away Liu Chang, who was still next to him, and walked towards Zhao Ji's chariot.

Zhao Ji lifted the curtain and poked her head out, and saw Zhao Zhengli standing by the carriage looking at her. Let her tears fall down in an instant, I thought that a goodbye is forever, and seeing each other again, like a different world, how can she not cry?

"Mother." Zhao Zheng knelt on the ground and kowtowed, remembering that he had abandoned his mother and gone first, and bursts of guilt rose again, and tears flowed down rarely.

Liu Chang helped Zhao Ji get out of the carriage, and she hugged Zhao Zheng: "My Zheng'er... Peace is good, peace is good. "It's all in plain sight.

Back in the palace, Liu Chang and Zhao Gao packed up and met Zhao Zheng again. Looking at the majestic building of the high walls of the Qin Palace, the two of them were full of emotion, and they really lived here with their son for a long time in the future, and they would never be separated again.

Originally, it didn't take so long to get to Xianyang, and finally entered the Qin State, but Zhao Gao was sick because of his unhealthy body, and he climbed mountains and waded through rivers. Fortunately, it has been picked up by the Qin army. It was in the place of Qin again, so he could only recuperate first, and Zhao Ji was also tired, so he recuperated together and was in a hurry.

"Childe, can we follow you to eat and drink spicy food from now on?"

When Liu Chang came to Zhao Zheng's bedroom, he didn't have much courtesy, and sat directly in a row with Zhao Zheng, completely ignoring the strange eyes of other palace people. Zhao Zheng didn't count him down, let him go. Zhao Gao, who was the opposite of Liu Chang, stood aside in a decent manner and didn't dare to say much, after all, he was different from Liu Chang, he was put on his own dead face, unlike Liu Chang who spent a long time with his son.

People are warm and cold, especially in this Xianyang Palace, even if they can be regarded as the people brought back by the son, but after all, they are not familiar with the place, and they and the son are just meeting in Pingshui, in case they make a mistake, they are still an ant in this palace, and it is not a pity to die.

"I don't have idlers around me, you don't have to serve me anymore, these things will be taken over by Zhao Gao in the future. I'll arrange for you to do something else. Zhao Zheng shattered Liu Chang's dream with a bang.

"What are these words? You're not going to let me follow you? Want me to do something else? You don't think you're going to be an official, right? ”

"What do you want to do? Is it good to go to a position in the barracks to make a contribution? so as not to waste a body of martial arts in vain. ”

"No, I'm not an official, I have to stay by your side and serve you as close as before. I'm not happy to go anywhere else. ”

"It's okay to stay by my side, but the rules in the Qin Palace stipulate that the only person who serves me personally is the eunuch, so are you sure you want to follow me closely?"

"It doesn't matter if he's a palace maid or a eunuch, I'm sure." Liu Chang was impassioned, and when he reacted, he felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly protected his lower body with both hands.

"Then you go and cleanse yourself."

"Male... Childe, this is no joke. ”

"Since you're not joking, you can go to Mengwu to train, and you will be useful in the future."

"Childe, I..."

"Senior brother, I hope you grow up with me, I know that senior brother is not only the ability to take care of my daily life. You know where my ambition is, I want to achieve my wish, and I will definitely need the help of my brother in the future. In this way, my brother has to go through it, and so do I. ”

"......" Liu Chang looked at Zhao Zheng leisurely, from the moment he entered the Qin Palace, Liu Chang knew that friendship could remain the same, but some things were changing, and they had to change. was willing to lay down his life for his son, but now that the son said that he would be needed in the future, then he would go to the place where the son needed to wait for the childe.

Qin Yiren drove the crane west late at night half a month later, and on the second day after Zhao Ji arrived in Xianyang, Yiren issued an edict to crown Zhao Ji as the king of Qin. The eldest son changed his surname to his national surname, changed his name to Yingzheng, and became the crown prince of Qin.

Since then, the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains of the Qin State have been handed over to a young man who is less than thirteen years old, and see how he can realize the magnificent scenery of a strong Qin invincible and ambitious in the world.
