When the woman heard the old eunuch ask, her head lowered lower, and she was still silent. Zhao Meng's expression also became very unnatural. Seeing this situation, the old eunuch was a little embarrassed, he felt that he had said something wrong, but he really couldn't think of any inappropriate words. I saw Zhao Meng gently pat the woman's shoulder, and then glanced at her, and the woman got up and pulled the young man out.

Zhao Meng watched the two of them get out of the house, then turned his head, sighed long, and then approached the old eunuch's ear, whispered a few words, after listening, the old eunuch seemed to be extremely shocked, and looked at Zhao Meng for a long time before he came to his senses, raised his face, and sighed to the sky: "Hey, this may be the fixed number of fate."

It turned out that Zhao Meng rescued Qin Shihuang's concubine from the ditch on that night of heavy rain with thunder and lightning, and took the opportunity to carry him to the nearby woods and rape him, and then plundered the concubine away. At that time, there were already knives and soldiers, and in such a ** environment, no one cared about the whereabouts of the two of them, let alone rounded up and wanted them.

However, after all, this is the woman of the First Emperor, of course Zhao Meng is afraid that others will know, when he escaped with his concubine, he made up his mind to find a secret place to live in seclusion, where is the right place to go? He thought about it back and forth, and finally thought of his hometown in the mountains, in this hidden mountain valley.

This valley was discovered by chance when he followed his father into the mountains to collect medicine. The valley is surrounded by high mountains, very steep and treacherous, and is located deep in the mountains, inaccessible to almost no one, and even fewer can get here. Because of the special topography of this valley, the climate inside is warm in winter and cool in summer, which is very suitable for human life. The terrain in the valley is very flat and covered with fertile soil, woods, grasses, and clear streams that flow down from the mountains. It's a paradise. So, Zhao Meng made up his mind to bring his concubine to live in this valley.

In the first few days, the concubine resisted very much, crying and making trouble, but later, she saw that Zhao Meng was young and handsome, tall and burly, and she was very gentle and considerate to her.

With the increase of getting along, the relationship between the two is getting deeper and deeper, and when the concubine is fine, she often can't help but wonder: although she is the woman of the first emperor, and the first emperor is also fond of her, and she also enjoys the glory and wealth of the world, but in the final analysis, she is just the plaything of the first emperor, every day by the side of the first emperor, she trembles, the so-called companion is like a companion tiger, and she already knows the news of the death of the first emperor. Thinking of the turmoil in the world, and I am a weak woman, I don't know my fate, where will I go, it is better to follow this Zhao Meng and live an ordinary life in a down-to-earth manner.

In this way, a pair of young men and women who could never be together became an ordinary couple who loved each other under the arrangement of magic and fate. There are many things in the world, and it's really a coincidence that people can't figure it out.

The two traveled a long distance and went through a lot of hardships to finally come to this valley and build a house. Usually, Zhao Meng often goes outside to buy some daily necessities, and will also hunt in the mountains, or collect medicines to sell at the bottom of the mountains. The days are very hard, but they are also extremely sweet.

But just more than a month after escaping and going to the valley, the concubine told Zhao Meng that she was pregnant with a child, and that it was not Zhao Meng's, but the first emperor Yingzheng's.

This news made Zhao Meng a little panicked, and he really didn't know what to do. If it comes to killing the enemy in battle, he is not vague at all, but when it comes to this kind of thing, he is really a little helpless. In many special moments in life, sometimes a woman has more ideas, this woman has made up her mind to give birth to a child, no matter who the father of the child is, this is also her blood after all. Although this decision made Zhao Meng feel a little uncomfortable, he still agreed.

After a few months, the child was in this thatched hut in the valley, croaking to the ground, this woman who had been the emperor's concubine, was indeed stronger and braver than ordinary women, she only asked Zhao Meng to prepare a wooden basin of hot water for her, and then let Zhao Meng wait outside the house, she actually broke the umbilical cord herself, and wrapped the child, and then let Zhao Meng come in. Since then, their family has changed from a two-person world to a three-person world.

That's where the whole thing came in. After listening to this, the old eunuch of course couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion. Zhao Meng knew that the old eunuch was alone, and at such an old age, there was no one to take care of him, so he mentioned that the old eunuch should not go back, and live with their family, so that the two could still chat together and take care of each other.

The old eunuch felt that what Zhao Meng said was quite reasonable, so he stayed in the valley. Zhao Meng built a grass house next to their house for the old eunuch to live in.

Since the old eunuch stayed, this deserted valley has been much more lively. Zhao Meng still often goes to the mountains to hunt, collect medicine, and then go to the bottom of the mountain to sell some money in exchange for some other daily necessities. And Zhao Meng's "son" likes this new "grandfather" very much, and he finds the old eunuch to play when he has nothing to do, and listens to the old eunuch's chatter curiously and obsessively. The woman felt awkward at first, but as time went on, she gradually became familiar with it. After all, she stayed in the palace, although she didn't know the old eunuch at that time, but the two still had a lot of common topics, such as which concubine had the most tragic fate, which concubine was the most favored, and what unusual things had happened among the concubines in the palace, of course, when talking about these topics, they had to avoid the young man.

In this valley, Zhao Meng cultivated a lot of wasteland and planted some crops, and when Zhao Meng hunted in the mountains during the day, the old eunuch worked with women and boys in the cultivated fields. They have become a family, talking and laughing every day, and they are happy, which is really a family fun.

However, the old eunuch noticed that in this valley, there was a cave with a strange shape, and whenever the old eunuch saw it, he would be a little embarrassed because the entrance of the cave was very similar to a woman's.

When I read this, I couldn't help but feel a shock in my heart: Could it be that the valley where they live is the valley deep in the mountains where we have here? And that **-shaped cave! It should be true, although the professor has not specifically stated the location of this valley in the book, but I firmly believe that this valley is the valley that Sister Li and Zhang Butcher have explored together!

I suddenly thought that on the stone slab that the professor found in the cemetery, the mysterious place name "Xuanpu Mountain, Xunzhou, Huiji County" was engraved, which was the name of the valley where Zhao Meng and the old eunuch lived, but this should be the ancient name, so which dynasty did this ancient place name originate from?

With my limited historical knowledge, I think it is likely to be the place name used in the Qin Dynasty, because at that time, the county system was implemented, and it was often called why a certain place was called "county" and the like.

How to check it, my family has no relevant information, so I can only check it on the Internet. So I turned on the computer and typed in these words "Xuanpu Mountain, Xunzhou, Huiji County", and wanted to search to see if I could find out, but the result disappointed me, without any information about this ancient place name.

The more I can't find it, the more curious I feel. Suddenly, I felt that I was stupid, and of course it was better to ask my cousin such questions. Putting such an expert-level literary and historical expert without asking, I still searched here, I really looked at my watch, it was close to eleven o'clock in the evening, my cousin should sleep late every day, and this is related to our next plan, so I no longer hesitated, and quickly dialed my cousin's phone.

I thought that this would be a piece of cake for my cousin, and he would be able to find out right away whether the ancient place name meant our area. However, after chatting on the phone for a while, I realized that the problem was much more complicated than I thought.

My cousin said that after he heard the feng shui master mention this place name, he did feel very strange, because the "Xuanpu" in the place name of "Xuanpu Mountain, Xunzhou, Huiji County" refers to women in ancient times, how can there be such naked words in the place name? This does not seem to be a regular place name.

However, I guessed a little bit that it was a bit reliable: it was very similar to the name of the Qin Dynasty, and my cousin said that he also thought it was possible. However, my cousin thinks that this place name seems to have been revised because of avoidance.

Taboo? My original impression was that "avoidance" seemed to be related only to people, for example, when a person's name is the same as the name of the emperor or an elder, and there are certain characters, he must change his name, and the name of a place or the name of a thing also has this problem?

My cousin said that my understanding was one-sided and wrong. He also gave an example: before the Tang Dynasty, the night pot was called Huzi, but after the establishment of the Tang Dynasty, the night pot can no longer be called "Huzi", because the grandfather of Li Shimin, Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, is called "Li Hu", so in order to avoid secrecy, the night pot can no longer be called "Huzi", so what is it called? It's called "Mako". Nowadays, in many Hong Kong and Taiwan movies and TV series, girlfriends are called "Ma Zi", which is from here, but this is a very disrespectful name for women.

That's it, listening to my cousin's explanation for a long time, although I have increased a lot of knowledge, but I still didn't get the answer I wanted, it seems that this place name really stumped my cousin, and it is indeed mysterious enough.

I chatted with my cousin for a while before hanging up. It was nearly midnight, but I still didn't feel sleepy. Looking at the thick book written by the professor in my hand, I felt as if I was holding an extremely mysterious and strange world. I rubbed my sore eyes, brewed a cup of coffee, and read on, expecting more amazing discoveries.
