Chapter 25: Private Meeting with Yingzi Chu
Qin Qing hesitated, if the person who was following Ding Yi and Wei Chun this afternoon was sent by Ying Zichu, then he would not be able to run away, so it was better to meet Ying Zichu and see what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd.
"Big brother, can you know that Prince Chu is looking for Qin Qing, what is the matter?" Qin Qing planned to poke out some eyebrows from the mouth of the subordinate in front of him first.
"The young lady is serious, the villain is just a subordinate, what the son tells the villain to do, the villain will obey the order, how dare you ask the master the reason?" The people who came were very cautious, and they didn't show a drop of water.
"Brother Lao leads the way!" Qin Qing couldn't ask anything from his mouth, so he had to walk out of the backyard with him with apprehension, and saw a dilapidated carriage parked next to the back door, Qin Qing couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. Yingzi Chu is really low-key enough, the carriages used to pick up and drop off guests in the house are all ordinary and can not be more ordinary, he is the grandson of the king, and there is Lu Buwei, the god of wealth, behind him, how can he not even be willing to change a carriage.
The entire carriage did not have a single window, and it was well closed, making Qin Qing feel as if he was being packed into a big box, and he could only feel that the car was moving. About an hour later, when Qin Qing was about to fall asleep, the carriage finally stopped, and the door was opened by the servant.
After Qin Qing came out, he found that he was in a very ordinary farm yard, and facing the gate was a house that seemed to be about to collapse at any time, the door was closed, there was no light in the house, as if no one was there, and the other three sides were broken walls. This is definitely not Ying Zichu's home, and with his identity, even if he is low-key, it is impossible to live in this kind of place. Didn't the person who picked up him send him, and he was deceived?
Qin Qing asked the servant with some anger, "Who sent you?" β
"Hahahaha, don't worry, Young Lady Qin, it is true that this son invited you here." With the sound of laughter, the door opened, and a person walked out of the room, it was Yingzi Chu.
Qin Qing saw Yingzi Chu and was a little relieved: "It turns out that it is really someone sent by Gongzi, but I don't know why Gongzi brought Qin Qing to this place?" β
"Let's go inside and talk." Yu Zichu didn't answer Qin Qing, but just commanded, "Light the lamp." β
There was a light in the house immediately, and Qin Qing walked in to take a look, it turned out that there was not only Yingzi Chu alone, but also four guards. Although the outside of the house is very dilapidated, the room is very clean.
"Young lady, please take a seat." Ying Zichu gracefully invited Qin Qing to sit down, and then instructed the servant: "Serve tea." β
Qin Qing saw that Yingzi Chu treated himself with hospitality, it should not be to kill people, so he was completely relieved and sat down on the mat.
"Go down and keep watch outside, and no one will come in without my orders." After the servants served hot tea, Yingzi Chu dismissed the servants and guards, revealing a kingly demeanor.
After everyone left, Yingzi Chu sat opposite Qin Qing, playing with the teacup in his hand, and said coldly: "I want you to bring Zhao Ji and Zheng'er back from Zhao State!" β
Not a request, not an inquiry, but a direct request quite affirmatively. When Yingzi Chu and Qin Qing first saw him tonight, their lazy appearance was completely different. Qin Qing was a little depressed, how could someone always come to her because of this recently, how could she have so much ability. Didn't Ying Yiren's concubine just give birth to a son for him, how could she care about Zhao Zheng? What she couldn't figure out the most was that LΓΌ Buwei was doing business everywhere, and in terms of connections or financial strength, she couldn't compare, so why didn't she just let LΓΌ Buwei take them back?
Qin Qing couldn't figure it out, so he directly asked the doubts in his heart. "Why don't you find Lord Lu?"
"Lu Buwei?!" Ying Yiren sneered: "Although he is an official now, he is still a businessman in his bones." β
Qin Qing pondered the meaning of this sentence carefully, but there were some places that he couldn't figure out, Yingzi Chu saw that Qin Qing was a little confused, his eyes flashed, and he said: "Businessmen are profit-oriented, and there is nothing to do, Lu Buwei will never do it." Over the years, he has spent a lot of money running around for me, but he has also established his own relationships and accumulated a lot of money, and now money alone cannot satisfy him. β
The things a man cares about are nothing more than money, beauty, and power. Lu Buwei is not short of money now, there is definitely no shortage of beauties, Zhao Ji is so stunning, he is willing to give it to Ying Yiren, what he cares about must be power. And a king, the most taboo is the minister, but on the side of the king's couch, how can he allow others to snore! Ying Zichu had already seen LΓΌ Buwei's ambitions, and for the sake of his position as the lord of the country, he had no choice but to ignore it for the time being and continue to rely on him. But he is also a businessman, Yingzi Chu should know this very well, why didn't he look for Lu Buwei to find him?
Although Qin Qing had already intended to help Zhao Ji's mother and son escape from Zhao State, he couldn't tell the truth to Yingzi Chu at this time, otherwise he would doubt himself, "Why me?" I'm also a businessman. β
"Because there are masters behind you!" Ying Zichu put down the teacup in his hand, recognized a glimmer of light in his eyes, and looked at Qin Qing: "How can a child who is less than ten years old understand the truth of 'harboring his guilt', and he still gives He's bi to my son." These are all instructed by the masters behind you, He's Bi is a national treasure in Zhao State, and after it was stolen, how strict the search of Handan City Gate was, he could actually think of a child to take out of Zhao State, haha, it was really a good plan, a good plan! I think that the master behind you has a certain strength in Zhao Kingdom. The corners of Ying Zichu's mouth rose slightly, and he looked at Qin Qing with a hint of a smile.
Qin Qing was a little depressed, this "guilt of the wall" in the future generations, I am afraid that there are not many people who don't know, but he just said it in advance, it would make him have such a misunderstanding, it seems that it is indeed unconvincing to do these things as a child. She thought that she didn't have the strength to take Zhao Ji's mother and son out of Zhao now, so she had to honestly say to Ying Zichu: "Qin Qing doesn't have the ability to bring them back now." β
Yingzi Chu squinted at Qin Qing and sneered: "Hmph, no matter who looks at it, the value of He's Bi is far greater than that of Zhao Ji's mother and son, you can take He's Bi out of Zhao Kingdom, just two protons, will you have no choice?" Do you think this son will believe what you say about the origin of the Washi Bi? Not only does this son not believe it, but I'm afraid that Lu Buwei is also paying special attention to you now because of the matter of the Heshi Bi. If you want to keep the Qin Mansion safe, you have to promise to this matter, and you have to agree if you don't agree! Ying Zichu's tone at this moment was extremely cold.
"Did you send the people who followed us?" Qin Qing was a little shocked when he heard this, and immediately thought of Ding Yi and Wei Chun being followed during the day.
"You don't deserve to be so concerned by Ben Gongzi, those people are from the LΓΌ Buwei faction. Originally, I sent someone to look for you after you left, but because you were all followed, I sent someone to pick you up secretly at night. β
I was actually targeted by Lu Buwei! Qin Qing couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat behind his back, this trouble is big, he only blames himself for being too careless, and thinking about these superiors too simply. Since Lu Buwei has already taken precautions against himself, it will definitely be difficult to find him in the future. Fortunately, he already had a plan for Zhao Ji's mother and son to escape from Zhao State, and now that Ying Yiren has found him again, he has no choice but to make a plan, but he can't agree to his request in vain.
"Childe's request Qin Qing can only agree, but Qin Qing has conditions!"
