Chapter VI

Outside the city until after nightfall, he went into the city in the dark and climbed over the wall to return to Zhao's house. Just as he was about to push the door into the room, the door creaked open. I saw Liu Chang drag him Meng Li in with one hand, and the door was closed with a bang.

"My uncle, do you always go to heaven or to the ground?"

Liu Chang, who stomped his feet, saw that he was really back, and his nerves, which had been tense for a day and a night, were finally saved. A little later, he would probably be able to scare himself to death.

Not to mention the consequences of his disappearance if Zhao Guo finds out. If he really misses... An old man with a red face and white hair suddenly appeared in his mind, holding a smooth sandalwood cane and jumping up and down in the sky to chase him. Half of the reason why the staff was so smooth was polished from him......

Thinking of the thousands of instructions from a hundred miles of sorrow, Zhao Zheng was in danger and worried about his life at any time. He couldn't let his guard down, so he was sent to follow Zhao Zheng and protect him as much as possible.

"I didn't come back safely." Knowing that Liu Chang was worried, Zhao Zheng smiled lightly.

"Childe is safe, but my heart is not very peaceful, and it still goes straight to my throat and eyes, and it hurts." He put his hand to his chest with a slightly exaggerated expression.

"Okay, I'm tired, I'll talk about it tomorrow, you can go back to your room and rest."

Seeing that Liu Chang can still play treasures, the fact that he is not in the Zhao Mansion for a day and a night is probably hidden from him. didn't pay much attention to it, now he still has more problems to sort out, and he can't feel at ease because of the myriad troubles.

"......" looked at Zhao Zheng with a tired face, and no matter how many doubts he had, he couldn't ask. How did he not know what kind of life this twelve-year-old boy lived, he was forced to grow up at an age that should have been ignorant, who understood the sourness at the center?

Liu Chang went out after serving him on the bed, Liu Chang's worried eyes made him feel a warm current in his heart, and the gratitude in his heart was even deeper...

Obviously tired, but not sleepy at all. Thinking about the person who called himself Wang Jian for a while, before parting that night, he said that he would go to the Zhao Mansion to meet again in the night after three days, and then he thought about the pure little face of Poxi. Her flawless eyes were as clear as if they were right in front of her at the moment...... Thinking about it, I fell asleep hazy.

When he woke up the next day, Liu Chang had already arranged more meals than usual. Yesterday I ate some wild fruits outside the city, and I didn't have the heart to eat when I came back, but now I really feel hungry.

was eating breakfast slowly, Zhao Ji came in from outside, and looked at him softly: "Zheng'er..."

"Mother." He stood up and saluted.

"Is Zheng'er feeling better?"

Zhao Zheng was stunned, thinking that Liu Chang said that he was not feeling well and sent everyone away: "Mother is at ease, my son is fine, and there is nothing uncomfortable in Ben, but he is too tired from studying, so he ordered not to be disturbed." ”

“…… That's it. Zhao Ji seemed to have something to say, but she didn't say it, and looked at her son kindly: "Zheng'er works hard, and her mother is deeply comforted, as long as Zheng'er thinks it's right, she will do it if she wants to." My mother will not stop me, and I believe that my son will be reborn one day. ”

Zhao Ji stroked his maturing face, resolute and handsome like a child. She knew that it was a hell like fire, which had trained his maturity.

"Mother......" Zhao Zheng faintly felt that his mother seemed to know something.

"Zheng'er doesn't need to say much, my mother knows and knows ......." yes, she knows. It is better to be separated from her heart than from her belly, how painful she is, how painful her son is, how bitter her son is, how bitter she is.

In the past few years, Zhao Zheng has changed, how can she, as a mother, not be clear. Although I don't know where he goes out every night, he was worried at the beginning, and then silently supported. If his son wants to fly high, instead of being buried in Zhao State silently, it is better to fight to the death and split this damn unbearable fate.

"......" Zhao Zheng looked into his mother's eyes, yes, needless to say, who else in this world knows him better? It's none other than my mother.

Suddenly, he remembered the white jade dragon head: "Mother, do you know what this is?" He hurriedly took it out and showed it to Zhao Ji.

After Zhao Ji saw it, she was stunned for a moment, and then her hands trembled a little and she took it, and obvious excitement rose in her heart: "Where did you get this from?" ”

"It's a man named Wang Jian who said that the King of Qin sent him to help us return to Qin. Does the mother know? ”

"......" Zhao Ji took down the cloth bag embroidered with auspicious clouds on his waist, took out half of the white jade with a phoenix carving from it and put it on the fracture of the other dragon's head, and the fracture of the two pieces of white jade fit together perfectly.

"This is..."Zhao Ji was shocked in her heart, after so many years, did their mother and son finally wait? When the alien was separated from her, he cut off the dragon and phoenix with jade ornaments, and handed over the head of the phoenix to her, telling her that if one day, the dragon head appeared, it would be when they returned to Qin.

"Zheng'er, we ...... You can go back to Qin. Zhao Ji looked at her son firmly.

Explain to his mother that the person named Wang Jian will come to Zhao's mansion to meet in the third watch two days later, and Zhao Zheng will go to Liu Chang to discuss. Until now, he still hasn't been completely relieved that he is not cheating.

came to Liu Chang's room and saw that he was helping the injured teenager change his dressing. When Liu Chang saw that he was alone, he was a lot more casual: "Why is the son here, don't say that you came to see this kid on purpose." Without waiting for Zhao Zheng to answer him: "If you say yes, I will be jealous, and I will serve you delicious food and drink every day, and I don't see you caring for me." I will be coerced by the old man to not protect you, he will beat me to death, I have been exploited to the point that I have half a life left, and now I have to serve this unknown lord. Childe, don't block me again......"

"Don't talk nonsense, I have something to discuss with you."

Zhao Zheng interrupted his chattering complaints, and his serious tone made Liu Chang's action of changing the dressing stop: "Has it anything to do with yesterday's disappearance?" ”

"Yes..."

Liu Chang knew that things were not so simple, but now Zhao Zheng took the initiative to talk about it, proving that the stakes were high. He didn't continue to ask, but continued to change the dressing. Zhao Zheng didn't urge him, found a seat and sat down and waited quietly for Liu Chang.

After changing the medicine, I saw that the lying boy was breathing steadily, but he still hadn't woken up, and it seemed that there was nothing serious.

Liu Chang washed his hands, found a low stool and sat casually facing Zhao Zheng: "Say, what's the matter?" "Liu Chang is the character of Xianyun Yehe, he gets along with Zhao Zheng in private, and never treats himself as an outsider, and there are not so many rules and regulations in his place.

"I'm probably going back to Qin."

Liu Chang raised his eyebrows: "How do you say this?" ”

"The State of Qin sent someone to secretly come to contact me, and that person appeared the night before yesterday. But I'm not sure if there is a hidden danger in it, my mother already knows, because there is a token of King Qin as evidence, she is convinced. ”

"If Madame approves, then it is roughly true. Recently, I heard that your unreliable father seems to be in poor health, he went back to be the king for ten years, Qin Zhao did not have a big war, there are rumors that because the King of Qin was able to escape successfully, the current King Zhao secretly contributed a lot, so your father promised that as long as he is in power, he will not attack Zhao for no reason. Today's Qin State is becoming stronger and stronger, and over the years, the attacks on Chu, Han, and Wei have been particularly prominent, and other vassal states have also attacked more or less, but Zhao is the only one who is alone, which shows that the rumors are not groundless. ”

Liu Chang has followed the door of the hidden master since he was a child, although his nature looks at Hang'er, but he is not ambiguous at all when he sees the current situation thoroughly.

"Now, the King of Qin does not formally propose to let you go back to Qin and wants to take you back secretly, I guess the King of Zhao has no intention of letting you go back, first, there were more than 400,000 soldiers in the Battle of Changping before the loss, and the Zhao State is only slowly recovering now. Now King Zhao's ambition is gradually rising, but the time has not yet come. Second, King Qin now only has two princesses and two princes, one of whom is you, and the other is only three years old. Therefore, I am in a hurry to take you back now, it should be that my body can't support it, so only you go back, and it is more appropriate to hand over the throne to you than to a three-year-old doll. At this point, it was impossible for King Zhao to let Qin Proton leave Zhao as he did back then. ”

After listening to Liu Chang's words, Zhao Zheng also knew something in his heart, but now it seems that Liu Chang has analyzed it clearly, so it seems that even if he gets the permission of King Qin, this road is still very difficult and dangerous.

"Then if you really want to leave by escaping, how to plan better." Zhao Zheng asked modestly

"If something really happens to the King of Qin, your life will definitely be difficult to protect if you stay in the Zhao State, the King of Zhao will sacrifice you to achieve the goal of weakening the Qin State, there are thousands of justifiable ways for you to die in the Zhao State, and the King of Qin loses you, the eldest son, and the Qin State is prone to civil strife. At that time, it was the best time for King Zhao to attack Qin. ”

Liu Chang continued to hit the nail on the head: "So, now as long as your life is in Zhao Kingdom for one day, your lifeline will be one inch shorter." But really want to escape......" Liu Chang paused slightly to think about himself and nodded: "Let's hold the troops for now, and see what the people sent by Qin have planned." ”

Zhao Zheng didn't have much feeling about the speculation that King Qin might have little time, he only cared about whether he and his mother could leave Zhao safely, and whether he could inherit the throne of Qin, he couldn't think so far for the time being. If you want to escape, you must have someone he trusts to take him with him, otherwise, he is young and his mother is weak, how can he get out of Zhao State smoothly?

"Liu... Brother....... Zhao Zheng blushed with some embarrassment: "You... Can you..."

"Oh mother, you, you, what do you call me?" Liu Chang's eyes widened as if he were a ghost. When they first met, they used both soft and hard treatment on him, coercion and temptation, and in the end, they never shook him and shouted "big brother". Even if he finally studied with the same disciple, he was a righteous senior brother, he never shouted, if there is anything to do, it is Liu Chang, Liu Chang's call, he once protested in front of the master, who knew that the old man gave him a roll of his eyes: He called you Liu Chang is a gift. He once lamented where this came from. However, I really like this kid, and I will eat this grievance as candy as soon as I swallow it.

Zhao Zheng got up, the hem of his clothes was turned up, and he knelt down with his legs: "Zhao Zheng implores senior brother to plan to return to Qin in the future, and senior brother can help me leave Zhao State." In Zhao Zheng's heart, Liu Chang has never been a subordinate, but a family member who is better than his brothers and sisters, and the eldest brother has already shouted countless times in his heart.

"You get up for me."

Liu Chang changed his look and pulled Zhao Zheng up. It wasn't what he wanted to see. Although the master didn't say it explicitly, he could roughly guess that this young man must be a shocking figure in the future. Judging from the master's requirement that he attaches importance to martial arts and ignores literature, and does not force him to learn from the hundreds of schools, but to Zhao Zheng, who is both civil and military, the master must have seen something clearly.

Not to mention that since he became his attendant, he has identified this master, and he should not kneel to him just because he is the eldest son of the Qin State.

"Why should Childe be so serious, although I am clothed, I am no worse than anyone in terms of loyalty, Liu Chang has been determined to be the master since the day he became your attendant in this life, and he has long been willing to go to the soup for Childe, today, Childe's senior brother has covered a thousand words, even if Childe does not say, I don't plan to be alone. I will do everything for the safety of my son and leave Zhao. ”

The two looked at each other wordlessly, Zhao Zheng's eyes were slightly red, Liu Chang's eyes were firm, and it was redundant ......to say more.
