In the fifty-sixth year of King Qin Zhaoxiang, King Yingji of Qin Zhaoxiang died, and Yingzhu, the monarch of Anguo, ascended the throne for King Qin Xiaowen and Yingzi Chu officially became the crown prince. Taking the new king's accession to the throne as an opportunity, the hostile Qin and Zhao relations were reconciled, and as an act of reconciliation, Zhao sent Zhao Ji and Yingzheng's mother and son back to Qin. Nine-year-old Ying Zheng set foot on the land of Qin for the first time. King Qin Xiaowen was already in his fifties when he ascended the throne, his body was weak, and he died three days after his official accession to the throne. With Lü Buwei as the prime minister, Feng Wenxin Marquis, 100,000 households in Luoyang. Zhao Ji was crowned queen.

King Xiang of Qin Zhuang died after three years of reign, and was succeeded by his eldest son Yingzheng at the age of thirteen. After Yingzheng succeeded to the throne, his mother Zhao Ji was the queen mother, Lü Buwei was the prime minister, and the king of Qin, Yingzheng, was still an adult, and handed over the government to the minister. Zhao Ji became the queen mother, the newly widowed queen mother's palace was lonely, Zhao Ji was romantic and debauched by nature, and rekindled the old relationship with Lü Buwei, Lü Buwei often went in and out of the palace, and fornicated with the queen mother.

But politicians who act as the Queen Mother's lovers are at great risk of being ruined. Qin Wang Yingzheng gradually grew up, and Lü Buwei himself knew that his personal relationship with Zhao Ji was harmful and not beneficial, and he had to get out as soon as possible. In order to avoid disaster, Lü Buwei decided to support the Empress Dowager Zhao Ji and King Yingzheng of Qin politically, and resolutely cut off the relationship with the Empress Dowager's lover in life. Lü Buwei is Lü Buwei after all, he is well versed in the world, and he is tactful, worried that the sudden severance of the lover relationship with the Queen Mother may cause accidents, so he considered finding a stand-in who can replace him as the Queen Mother's lover. The person he found was Chang Yu.

Chang Yu's ability in the matter of the house was abnormal, and Lü Buwei deliberately mentioned Chang Yu in front of the Queen Mother from time to time, which aroused the interest of the Queen Mother, so he asked Lü Buwei to send Chang Yu to his side. Lü Buwei tried to convict Chang Yu and send him to the palace as a eunuch in the palace of the Empress Dowager and Empress Dowager. He also instigated the Empress Dowager to bribe the officials who presided over the punishment, and simply plucked Chang Yu's beard and sent him to the palace as a eunuch. The Queen Mother got the concubine, and she was very excited and loved after being used. Historical records record that the Queen Mother is "absolutely in love" with Chang Yu, very fond of her, and the Queen Mother was immersed in love with Chang Yu, and soon became pregnant. It is recorded in the history of the wild that when Zhao Ji traveled with Chang Yu, the two of them stayed in the carriage for 5 days without thinking about eating and drinking, and enjoyed the pleasures of the flesh without leaving home, and the lingering voice of the Queen Mother lasted for 5 days, and even the soldiers in her entourage sighed: "The color of a woman, the tiger and the wolf are very difficult to fill; On the prostitution of women, it is none other than the Queen Mother. When the Queen Mother came out of the carriage, her face was radiant as if she had rejuvenated, and Chang Yu, who was beside her, had a haggard face and a thin figure with gray hair, which couldn't help but surprise the soldiers.

In order to avoid the eyes and ears of the world, the queen mother divined because she was unwell, and got the result that she should avoid the residence, so she left Xianyang and moved to live in the palace of Yongcheng. Yongcheng is in the current Baoji, hundreds of miles away from Xianyang, is the old capital of the Qin State, with Chang Yu moved to Yongcheng with the Queen Mother, here to build a paradise-like love nest. Her private life is not only laissez-faire, almost unscrupulous, and forgetful, between her and Chang Yu, she gave birth to two sons in a row.

Chang Yu, who was favored by the Queen Mother, was inseparable from the Queen Mother. With the connivance of the Empress Dowager, Chang Yu was free to use the Qin royal family's palaces, carriages, horses, clothes, gardens, and hunting grounds. There are thousands of servants waiting for Chang Yu, and there are more than 1,000 guests who go to Chang Yu to seek official positions. The affairs of the Queen Mother, no matter how big or small, are all handled and decided by Chang Yu. Then, the area west of the Fen River in Taiyuan County was rewarded to Chang Yu as a feudal state. Just because of the Empress Dowager's personal kindness, he was named Changxinhou, with Shanyang (now southeast of Jiaozuo, Henan) as his residence, and Hexi and Taiyuan counties as his fields.

With the help of the Queen Mother, it didn't take long for Chang Yu to form a political force second only to Prime Minister Lü Buwei and compete with Lü Buwei. In the Qin state, from the government to the people, from the officials to the common people, they were generally divided into two factions, either on the side of Chang Yu or on the side of Lü Buwei.

Chang Yu, a new powerful political force, attracted the attention of the government and the opposition, and Chang Yu was favored by the queen mother, and she was arrogant and lascivious in the palace, and it was inevitable that she would get carried away. claimed to be the "false father" of King Yingzheng of Qin. Chang Yu once drank and played games with the courtiers in the palace, and there was a quarrel. The drunk Chang Yu opened his eyes and shouted loudly to the other party: "My King of Qin's false father, how dare the son of a man be with me!" The meaning of this sentence is: "Lao Tzu is the stepfather of King Yingzheng of Qin."

Who are you, poor ghost? Dare to fight with me! The person who was scolded by Chang Yu quickly slipped away and reported the matter to King Yingzheng of Qin.

King Yingzheng of Qin sent people to investigate on the surface, and many people accused Chang Yu of having an affair with the Queen Mother, having two sons, and conspiring with the Queen Mother: "The king is the queen, and the son is the queen." It means that Chang Yu said to the queen mother: "If the king of Qin dies, let our children succeed to the throne." ”

In the ninth year of King Yingzheng, in April, Yingzheng came to Yongcheng to hold a crown ceremony, Chang Yu took advantage of King Yingzheng of Qin to stay in Yongcheng, stole the imperial seal of King Qin and the seal of the Queen Mother, and transferred the county guards, official guards and officials to attack the Qinian Palace. Ying Zheng ordered Changping Jun and Chang Wenjun to lead the Xianyang soldiers to quell the rebellion, and the two armies fought in Xianyang. The king of Qin ordered: "All those who have military merits will be rewarded by the lord, and those who participate in the war will also be rewarded by the knight." Hundreds of rebels were killed, Chang Yu's army was defeated, and he fled with his dead friends.

The king of Qin issued an edict to the whole country: "Those who capture the concubine alive will be given one million, and those who kill the concubine will be given five hundred thousand yuan." "Chang Yu and his dead friends were wiped out, and King Yingzheng of Qin split Chang Yu and exterminated his three clans. Twenty people, including Chang Yu's Dead Guard Wei Di, Nei Shi Shi, Zuo Ge Ji, and Zhong Dafu Ling Qi, followed Chang Yu's guests and gave up the lesser sin for the salaried person who served in the temple - the ghost salary; More than 4,000 people who committed serious crimes were seized and moved to Shu, and relocated to serve for three years. The two sons of the Queen Mother and Chang Yu were all culled together. The Queen Mother was imprisoned in Yongcheng. Ying Zheng clearly cut off the mother-son relationship with the Queen Mother and never see each other again, and explicitly ordered the courtiers to dare to advise the Queen Mother, "kill and kill them, and tribulus terrestris on their backs". As a result, twenty-seven ministers were brutally executed, and their bodies were hung on the palace walls for public display. As for the twenty-eighth minister, Mao Jiao, on the grounds that "if the king of Qin wants to unify the world, he needs to put filial piety first", and moved the king of Qin Yingzheng to take his mother Zhao Ji back to Xianyang. Zhao Ji was finally able to enjoy her old age in peace.

Lü Buwei was implicated in the rebellion of Chang Yu, was deposed from the position of Xiangbang, and was demoted to Henan. After Lü Buwei arrived in Henan, there were still thousands of guests to greet him, which made Yingzheng very disgusted. Soon Lü Buwei was relegated to Shu again. After Lü Buwei received the will, he was full of contradictions, if he told the truth, King Yingzheng of Qin was violent and arrogant by nature, and it was difficult for him to survive anymore, seeing that his exploits of decades of hard work were declared bankrupt, Lü Buwei committed suicide in despair.

"Lin Kun, if this is Zhao Ji's tomb, it obviously doesn't match the historical data?" Zhang Liqun questioned, "In the nineteenth year of Qin Shi Huang, Zhao Ji died, and Ying Zheng posthumously honored his mother Zhao Ji as the 'Empress Dowager' and was buried with King Xiang of Qin Zhuang in Zhiyang, how could her mausoleum be in Handan?" ”

"Elder Zhang, I think you are a fan of the authorities, think about it, even the notorious Changxin Marquis Chang Yu in history deserves such a mausoleum, how can Zhao Ji, the empress dowager of the Great Qin Empire, not have a mausoleum, history is written by the victors, what kind of person is the real Chang Yu, what kind of person is the real Zhao Ji, none of us can say."

Zhang Liqun nodded and said, "Now it seems that there is only this kind of explanation." ”

"In fact, I have always had doubts about Zhao Ji's identity, even in the volume of "Historical Records: The Biography of Lü Buwei", the records before and after are contradictory, first saying that 'Lü Buwei took Handan Zhuji as a good dancer and residence', and then said, 'Zhao wants to kill Zichu's wife, and Zichu's wife Zhao Hao's daughter is also hidden, so the mother and son have to live.'" Here Zhao Ji became the daughter of a big family in Zhao State. ”

"And what do you think of the truth?" Zhang Liqun asked.

"The truth is not something I guessed, nothing is empty words without evidence." I shook my head, "What I'm worried about right now, though—"

I set my sights on them.

And they're looking at us right now.

"What do you mean......" Zhang Liqun's face turned pale first, "they're going to attack us?" ”

Hu Bing's people have long been disarmed, and fighting hard is to hit a stone with an egg, and there is no chance of winning. However, from the eyes of the heads of the house, I could already read the killing intent.

It was too late, and I suddenly stood up suddenly, "You guys aren't from the Red Cloud Society at all!" ”

The heads of the family obviously didn't expect me to say this, and they were stunned at the same time. After a long while, the head of the house stood up and said coldly, "When did you see it?" ”

"You exposed it yourself."

"Oh? Is it? Just because I can't understand Qin Seal? ”

"Not really, you said

Come out of the three words of the Qin Emperor's Mausoleum, this is not normal! ”

The head turned his head and glanced at a few of his subordinates sitting on the ground, and said with a playful smile: "Originally, I planned to keep your little life, but who knew that you were so eager to find death, then it's no wonder that I am." ”

"You are not the real mastermind, there must be someone else!" I said bluntly, "Since it's for us, why don't you come out and meet us!" ”

The air was suddenly quiet.

I've been waiting for a long time.

Suddenly, in the far distance of the cemetery, there was a crisp sound of high heels.

"Uh...... Woman? ”

What kind of woman would come to the tomb in high heels.

"Young Marshal Jin, it really deserves its reputation." A charming voice came, and when I didn't see him, I heard it first, "What a strong sense of oppression." ”

Finally, I could see the man's appearance clearly, and I was as surprised as I was eating an egg.

"Aren't you—the eldest lady of the Qiu family?"

"Miss!" The head and the others shouted in unison, extremely respectful.

"Qiu Xiaoyan?" Hu Bing was surprised.

"Oops, isn't this Boss Hu? How did you start a bucket business? Qiu Xiaoyan sneered.

"How did you get here?" Hu Bing asked.

"If you can come, why can't I?" Qiu Xiaoyan didn't pay much attention to Hu Bing, but stared at me, "Don't you want to see me, I'm here now, what are you going to do?" ”

"We're all fish on your chopping board now, and we can only catch them with our hands tied."

"That's not what you're talking about!" Qiu Xiaoyan suddenly approached me, "I just want to see if you're as powerful as the rumors." ”

"What does the eldest lady mean ......"

Qiu Xiaoyan didn't speak, but just stretched out three fingers.

"What do you mean?" It's hard to guess what a woman thinks.

"The last time we met in a hurry, there was still a lot I didn't say." Qiu Xiaoyan smiled, "Actually, I have always wanted to communicate with you, I heard that you are good at skills, and you have injured my subordinates, it is better to do this, today you can win against my three subordinates, and you can leave unscathed." ”

"Leave? What if I don't leave? ”

"Hehe, it's okay, in short, as long as you win, you can do whatever you want, and we will never be embarrassed."

"Are you just here to get revenge?"

"Not really, I just think you're special." Qiu Xiaoyan glanced at me, "If it weren't for the person you injured me, maybe we would still be friends." ”

From Qiu Yanyan's kind of "ease" that she doesn't care about every word, to be precise, it should be called presumptuous, I know that she is a terrible opponent.

"Friends? I can't imagine being friends with someone with a gun to my head. ”

Qiu Xiaoyan waved her hand and motioned for her subordinates to put down their guns, "This is sincere enough." ”

"Miss Qiu, I think I'm surprised enough today, you can kill me without me noticing, which shows your ability, but I don't understand, what is your motive for doing this? For revenge, or for the tomb of Emperor Qin? ”

Qiu Xiaoyan thought for a while, and said with a smile: "Lin Kun, you can be regarded as asking me this question, I don't know what I'm here for today, but I can explain it another way, in fact, I don't care at all about you hurting Ah Jun, they are just a few watchdogs of my Qiu family, and it's not a pity to die." Therefore, to say that it is here to seek revenge may be a bit exaggerated. ”

"That's for the Qin Emperor's Mausoleum?" Hu Bing snorted coldly.

"That's not it, I don't know anything about the business of this industry, it's not my style of doing things to get involved in this industry for no reason, not to mention that stealing people's jobs is like killing my parents, I won't do this kind of thing that harms the rules of the rivers and lakes."

"So what?" I continued.

"I heard Lin Qiang say that you are very good at fighting, and it happens to be ......" As she spoke, Qiu Yanyan reached out and unzipped her coat and took off her clothes, "I really want to meet you!" ”
