Win the Other

I am Gongzi Yiren, the eleventh son of Qin Guoan, and my father has more than 20 sons, and this number is gradually increasing. My mother is called "Xia Ji" because she is from Xia Guo, and she is a beautiful, gentle and kind woman in my eyes. But among my father's concubines, the most important thing is probably beautiful women, so my mother, who has no power background, has never been favored since she gave birth to me, and I have never been valued by my father.

When I was sixteen years old, due to political reasons, the Qin State wanted to send a famous son to the Zhao State as a proton, and compared to other sons, I became the best candidate. When my mother received the news, she cried so much that she fainted, and tried to beg her father several times to dispel this idea, but I stopped her.

What's the use of begging the man I call Father? My brothers are either favored by their biological mothers, or their family backgrounds are strong, even if they beg him, the last person to be sent to Zhao will still be me. I had already figured this out when I received the news of sending protons to Zhao Kingdom, but I just took pity on my gentle mother and wept for me every night until dawn.

Although I am the son of Qin, I am not courteous in Handan, the capital of Zhao, because I am not favored, so almost all the princes and nobles of Zhao do not like to associate with me. But I don't care about this, I have often been ostracized by my brothers in the Qin State, and I have long been accustomed to this kind of indifference and exclusion.

So I began to become debauched and depraved, wandering day and night in the land of wine shops and hops, living a life of wine and drunkenness, until I met the noble man of my life, Lü Buwei. When he first appeared in front of me and said with a smile to me that I would become the monarch of Qin, I felt that he was a madman. I have more than twenty brothers, and none of them would put the treasure on me, but he made a different choice.

After contact, I found that he was a very intelligent and knowledgeable person, and I couldn't help but admire him. I don't trust his claims, but it doesn't stop the two of us from dating and becoming best friends. But I didn't expect that I would fall in love with his concubine. That was the first time Lü Buwei invited me to his home, and on my way to the toilet, I occasionally saw her, Zhao Ji.

I can't put into words how beautiful she was, and the shock I felt when I saw her for the first time, it was a visual shock, it was a spiritual shock. Although she is married to a woman, she still has the coquettishness of a girl, and occasionally speaks with a hint of arrogance, but this does not make people feel annoying. Because she is a true beauty, whatever she says or does is forgivable in my eyes.

During the banquet, Lu Buwei asked her to come out and pour wine, looking at her slender jade hand pouring wine frequently, I was drunk before I drank it. Near the end of the feast, I mentioned it to Lü Buwei under the pretext of drunkenness, and asked him to give me the beauty. Originally, I just wanted to express my love for Zhao Ji after getting drunk, but Lu Buwei agreed to me without thinking about it. Zhao Ji suddenly burst into tears, crying and unwilling to leave casually, and I only felt full of sadness in my heart at that time.

Although Zhao Ji was reluctant, she eventually went back with me, and in order not to let her be wronged, I married her as a wife. Nine months after marriage, she gave birth to a lovely son named "Zheng", and since Zheng'er was born, rumors about the child's life experience have been constantly spreading. These people may think that they are hidden and do not reach my ears, but I have known about these rumors for a long time, but I have never expressed an opinion. It doesn't matter to me who Zheng'er is, I only know that he was born to Zhao Ji, and he will shout "Daddy" to me when he grows up.

Originally, having a beautiful wife and children by my side has been able to satisfy me, but God is not beautiful. When Zheng'er was five years old, my grandfather, His Majesty the King of Qin, regardless of my safety in Handan, sent people to attack the border of Zhao, the Zhao army was defeated, and the King of Zhao was furious and wanted to send someone to kill me to relieve his anger, but unexpectedly, Lü Buwei learned the news one step ahead of time and took me back to Qin overnight. I wanted to take Zhao Ji and Zheng'er back together, but the road was far away and dangerous, and after thinking about it again, I decided to leave their mother and son in Handan.

After returning to Qin, Lü Buwei spent all his money for me and bribed the ministers of the court. I tried my best to make me recognize Mrs. Huayang as my mother, and persuaded me to change my name to "Zichu" to please Mrs. Huayang. From Lü Buwei's series of actions, I gradually discovered his ambition, but I was impatient to get rid of it. It wasn't until a little girl named Qin Qing offered her He's Bi that I seized an opportunity.

I returned to Qin and worked hard for three years, and my father finally became the monarch of Qin, and I was appointed crown prince. Just three months after my father ascended the throne, he was found poisoned and died in his bedroom, causing a storm in Xianyang. I knew who sent the poison, but in the face of all this, I chose to remain silent until I became king. When I was in that position of envy and held supreme power, I only felt regret in my heart, because my beloved wife and children were not around at this time.

Although Lü Buwei contributed money and efforts to me this year, I couldn't let the power of the Qin State fall, so I only made him the Marquis of Wenxin. In the face of my unfairness, Lü Buwei did not show any dissatisfaction, but respectfully accepted it. I thought that in the face of my power, he had no choice but to bow his head in obedience, but I forgot that a leopard is always a leopard, how can he become a cat?

When I thought about it, it was three years later, and I was lying on my own dragon bed. There was no anger in my heart, only countless sorrows, just to say goodbye to Handan, I never saw the beloved woman again, and my lovely son. Maybe he's not my blood, but so what? I only know that he is my son, and he will also become the monarch of this Great Qin Kingdom in the future.
