"You've been hungry all day, so let's talk about it after dinner." Ying Zheng didn't answer the question, just pulled her to the side of the desk and sat down, stuffed the chopsticks into her hand, and coaxed her in a gentle tone, like a child with a temper tantrum.

"You are like this, how can I eat with peace of mind!" Qin Qing put down his chopsticks and looked directly into Ying Zheng's eyes, with a resolute attitude. Without getting an answer, how could she eat, she only hoped that he would answer truthfully and not run away from the question.

There are still medicines that can cure physical pain, but heart diseases cannot be cured by drugs. After drinking the prescription prescribed by the imperial doctor, he slept for another day and a night, and his face was as normal at this time, which showed that his body was in serious trouble. I just don't know if the depression in my heart has ever been eliminated?

The cruelty and unkindness of Ying Zheng recorded in later generations, she intuitively thought that this was related to the influence that Zhao Ji brought him, if she had not traveled here, maybe Ying Zheng would really become what was recorded in history. But now that she is by his side, he will not sit idly by and watch him fall into the devil.

"How do Qing'er want me to answer?" Ying Zheng's originally bright eyes dimmed, and he turned his head to look out the window, his voice was slightly helpless, "Okay?" But now I am not only her son, but also the emperor of the Great Qin State, and I can't ignore the government for the sake of mother-son love; All right? But why every time I think about it, I always feel unspeakably uncomfortable in my heart. ”

Maybe she shouldn't have asked that! Qin Qing was silent, because she was too anxious and eager to let Yingzheng out of the haze, but she forgot that his heart disease had been growing since he was a child, and now it is no longer something that can be solved overnight. And heart disease still needs heart medicine to be treated, and Yingzheng geoxin medicine should be Zhao Ji. It's just that I didn't know that I just gave birth to two sons. Zhao Ji, who is immersed in her own happiness, has ever thought about this son who is tormented in her heart.

"I'm sorry." Qin Qing felt deeply sorry in his heart. This "I'm sorry" is not only for the scar that has just touched the bottom of his heart, but also for his own powerlessness in this matter.

Ying Zheng stuffed the chopsticks back into her hand, looked at her and smiled softly: "If you really feel sorry for me, you can quickly eat all the food in front of you." When Qin Qing heard this, he cheered up and scooped up his chopsticks to fight towards the meal.

Looking at Qin Qing's gluttonous appearance, Ying Zheng felt warm in his heart. Ever since I first saw the woman in front of me. I felt an unprecedented warmth from her, and I always thought that only a carefree life was the most suitable for her. Unexpectedly, there has never been a fight around her, and even she has been stirred into these troubled waters.

Confessed his heart to Qin Qing twice in a row, but he was rejected, if he didn't mind at all in his heart, it would be impossible, but he didn't give up. His concern was not entirely unaware of her, and he had not said it again over the years. It's because as he gets older, his thoughts have changed.

Originally, he just hoped that she could stay by his side, but in recent years, he saw that there were many crises around him, and even his status and life were not stable, how could he give his beloved woman safety? So he secretly decided in his heart to quell the civil strife and regain power as soon as possible, and then keep her by his side and give her a carefree life.

While one was only concerned with destroying the meal in front of him, the other was thoughtful on the side. But both of them were quietly enjoying a rare calm and warm atmosphere. It's just that the good times didn't last long, and an untimely voice suddenly interjected.

"Your Majesty, the county lieutenant of Yongxian County asks to see you." Zhao Gao raised his head cautiously and looked at Ying Zheng's face was wrong, as if he had come at a very bad time.

"Nope!" Ying Zheng was a little annoyed, and he was still glad that he had nothing to disturb just now. There are people who don't know each other so quickly. Qin Qing put down his chopsticks when he heard this. Gently tugged at his sleeve and reminded: "It's the county lieutenant of Yongxian." ”

The county is the lowest level of administrative place in the Qin State, and the county lieutenant is just a petty official like the county magistrate, who helps the county order manage the local security. Now this inconspicuous petty official actually bypassed his superiors and came directly to meet the emperor, presumably there must be something important to report. And he still has some ability, otherwise how could he let people spread the word to Yingzheng.

Switch to usual. She will not ask about Yingzheng's affairs. But Zhao Ji's temporary residence palace is in Yongxian. When I looked for Qin Ji in later generations, I remembered that it was mentioned in the play. When he wanted to rebel, someone once reported to Yingzheng that Zhao Ji had already given birth, and it was estimated that the time of the rebellion would not be too far away. So she boldly guessed that this matter must be related to the upcoming rebellion!

Now Ying Zheng only knows that he has ambitions, but he has not yet seen that he has the intention of rebellion, if he doesn't see this Hou Fei today, he may miss this news. Although she doesn't want anyone to disturb this rare solitude, there are priorities, and she can't miss a big thing because of her children's personal feelings.

Listening to her repeat the position of the visitor, Ying Zheng also guessed that this matter was probably related to Zhao Ji, and after a little contemplation, he instructed Zhao Gao: "Bring him in, be careful on the road, don't let too many people see it." ”

"Since it is the county lieutenant who asks to see him, it must be a matter of government affairs, and I am inconvenient here. It's better for me to avoid it first, and then send Zhao Gao to the garden to find me after Zheng'er finishes talking about political affairs. Seeing that Zhao Gao retreated to lead the people, Qin Qing proposed to Ying Zheng to recuse himself, although Ying Zheng didn't want her to leave, but seeing that she insisted on doing so, he had to agree.

As soon as I walked out of the dormitory, I saw Zhao Gao leading a man in official uniform who was over forty years old, and the man in official uniform must have been the county lieutenant of Yongxian County. When passing by her, Zhao Gao hurriedly saluted and brought Hou Fei into the dormitory. Qin Qing stood outside the door, sighed softly, and walked towards the garden.

When Hou Fei passed by just now, she deliberately paid attention to look at it twice, Hou Fei's face was extremely ordinary, but a pair of eyes were shining from time to time, revealing a greedy look. She was almost certain that Hou Fei must have sought his own wealth, so he took the risk to enter the palace to expose the rebellion. I wonder how Ying Zheng will feel when he hears the news? Sad? Disappointed? Still feeling grief? I'm just afraid that there will be these, after all, the one who helped others to seize the throne was his biological mother. The reason why she would hide out was to guess this, although Yingzheng didn't mind that she was listening to it, but she minded! She minded seeing Ying Zheng sad, and she had to do nothing in front of her subordinates.

Qin Qing sat in the garden for a long time, but he didn't see Yingzheng sending anyone to look for him, thinking that Hou Fei should have left now, so he got up and returned to Yingzheng's bedroom. The dormitory was dreary, and when she left, she could still see a few maids and chamberlains busy, but now there was no one to be found.

Pushing open the door, I saw Ying Zheng standing alone in front of the window, looking outside and not knowing what he was thinking. Qin Qing knew that he was still digesting the news he had just gotten, so he just walked to his side lightly and didn't disturb his thoughts without making a sound.

After a long time, I heard his deep voice, "Qing'er, do you know, why did that county lieutenant come just now?" ”

"I don't know." Qin Qing pretended to know nothing, Ying Zheng had just received the news, if she showed that she had already known, it was hard to guarantee that Ying Zheng would not suspect anything. "It doesn't seem to be a good thing, otherwise Zheng'er wouldn't be so upset."

"Surely the earth is not a good thing! Just now, Hou Fei reported secretly, there is a rebellion! Ying Zhengdi was a little excited, and his voice raised slightly: "And the widow's mother---- Empress Dowager Zhao of the Great Qin Kingdom, actually knew about it a long time ago, and she had the intention to help that fake eunuch deal with her own son!"

"Zheng'er." Qin Qing took Yingzheng's hand, wanting to give him a little comfort. Although Yingzheng has been on the throne for seven years, he has never called himself a "widow" in front of her, and he feels very uncomfortable when he hears this title for the first time. Looking at him again, his face was a little gloomy, and he faintly felt a trace of fear. Don't, she doesn't want Yingzheng to become what is recorded in history!

With a light call, Ying Zheng calmed down a little, and laughed mockingly: "It's a fake eunuch, and everyone in the palace has already made trouble, only the queen mother is naïve, thinking that she can hide from the world!" For more than a year, he has been tolerated in every way, named him a marquis, and let him move to the palace with his mother, all because of his mother's favor for him! So I chose to turn a blind eye, just hoping that the queen mother would be happier. However, I didn't expect that she would actually give birth to a child for that fake eunuch! Now I want to praise him as the king of Qin! Ridiculous, right?! As the saying goes, tiger poison does not eat children! Now my queen mother wants to help others, to take my power, to take my life! There was a strong resentment in his tone, and there was a strong killing intent!

Although he didn't want to see him become like this, Qin Qing couldn't blame him. What to repounce him? Blame him for not resenting his mother's betrayal, or blame him for not being against his mother's lover, who is trying to kill him? She also grew up in a single-parent family, and her father's early death made her dependent on her mother, so she knows the longing for maternal love for children from single-parent families.

In this backward feudal society, Ying Zheng's tolerance of Zhao Ji to such an extent is beyond the reach of ordinary people. Even if she, a descendant, stands in his position, I am afraid she may not be able to do this.

From the standpoint of future generations, she feels that Zhao Ji is understandable in pursuing her own happiness, and everyone has the right to pursue her own happiness. But Zhao Ji is definitely not pure love, she feels that it is just a tool used by Zhao Ji to fill her emptiness and loneliness, and for Zhao Ji, she is just a target for her to rise to prominence and compete for power. If Zhao Ji murdered his son who used to depend on each other for the sake of such a man, it would inevitably be worth the loss!

Although she was dissatisfied with what Zhao Ji did, it was not something she could manage, and even if she could, she didn't want to pay attention to it. She was only worried about Ying Zheng's feelings, and she didn't know how he would deal with it.

Seeing that Ying Zheng's mood was slightly stable, Qin Qing opened his mouth and asked, "How does Zheng'er plan to deal with this matter?" ”
