At dusk, in the Queen Mother's bedroom, the Queen Mother Zhao Ji looked at Hu Yu, who lost her mind after sobbing, and didn't say more, just quietly accompanied her.

Zhao Ji has already told Hu Yu everything about the matter.

I don't know how long it took, Hu Yu's pupils gradually regained focus, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

"Say whatever you want, don't let the grievances suffocate you." Zhao Ji said softly.

Two clear tears slowly overflowed from the corners of Hu Yu's eyes, but they were not accompanied by any sobbing.

"Mother... After..."The voice was as light as a mosquito and a fly, faintly trembling, "It turns out that the king, he has carried so many heavy responsibilities and secrets."

"yes." Zhao Ji responded, "In this life, it is all fate, even the birth of the king is *** controlled, and he has no choice for many things. When I think back to my mother at that time, I really didn't know anything, not even my own background."

After talking to Lu Buwei in detail, Zhao Ji learned that she was a descendant of the surname Ji who was fostered in the Zhao family.

"Is it true that the queen mother said that the king-making tombs and using Jiuding to restore the natural source power are also true?" Hu Yu asked like a child, "There is also the legendary dragon clan, and the world on the other side......

"Yes." Zhao Ji nodded lightly and said, "Although the queen mother has never seen these things, I believe that Zheng'er will not joke about this kind of thing. Especially after meeting Senior Ji, the Queen Mother is even more convinced of this."

Hu Yu's bright eyes widened a little again: "Queen Mother, Senior Ji, he ...... Is it really the Martial King of the year, Ji Fa?"

"I believe he is." Zhao Ji said without hesitation.

"So, is there really an elixir of immortality in the world?" Hu Yu was a little surprised.

"Whether it can live forever or not, the queen mother doesn't know." Zhao Ji said, "But don't you think it's strange that the king goes to the backyard of the study to make alchemy at every turn."

Hu Yu said thoughtfully, "No wonder, the pill he gave us is so effective, and he has been obsessed with alchemy recently."

"Even Fusu and Hu Hai are like prodigies."

Zhao Ji said with a smile: "Therefore, the king's secret, there will definitely be no fake, we are women, but we have to support our own men."

After talking for a long time, Zhao Ji still wanted to comfort Hu Yu's ionic pain.

Thinking of the son Yu he had just given birth to, Hu Yu was silent again, and there was another layer of bloodshot under his eyes.

"Such a young child, just born and about to leave his father and mother......" After a while, Hu Yu muttered, "I...... I really can't bear it."

Zhao Ji let out a long sigh, and her voice was also choked: "This pain, how can the queen mother forget, you must already know that the reason why the queen mother left the palace and didn't even participate in your wedding is because she has a flesh and blood with Chang Yu."

Zhao Ji's voice stopped, and she couldn't go on.

The two women looked at each other, could no longer suppress their emotions, hugged each other, and cried loudly.

"Queen Mother, I can't bear it, I really can't bear it, woo woo woo ...... "

Ying Zheng, who was secretly guarding outside the door, frowned, clenched his teeth, and his lips trembled so much, he couldn't bear to listen anymore, turned around lightly, and quietly left the queen mother's bedroom.

As a father, he is not ruthless, he will also be heartbroken.

It's just that he will forbear, and this patience can only be borne by himself.

This night, Zhao Ji let Hu Yu's mother and son stay in her bedroom, reluctant to Ying Yu, not to mention Hu Yu, as a grandmother, Zhao Ji may be even more reluctant.

Looking at the immature Ying Yu, Hu Yu was even more sad, crying for a while, but he didn't say a word of reluctance.

Zhao Ji also persuaded and persuaded, and cried from time to time.

Sleepless all night

is not only the queen mother's bedroom, but also Yingzheng.

He wanted to get up several times to see Hu Yu's mother and son, but he couldn't muster the courage to face it.

Perhaps, this is the most cowardly in Yingzheng's life

Moment.

Since you can't sleep, just get up and read a book to distract yourself.

Zhao Gao saw that the study was lit up, so he came to accompany Yingzheng.

"Don't be too upset, Your Majesty." Zhao Gao came to Ying Zheng's side and comforted softly.

"You've heard about Ying Yu, right?" Ying Zheng asked worriedly.

Zhao Gao nodded: "I've heard what Mr. said."

"Tell me what you think." Ying Zheng said directly.

Zhao Gao pondered for a moment, then leaned over to Ying Zheng's side and said, "According to the slaves, this is indeed a test for the king, or perhaps, it is just the beginning."

Ying Zheng frowned and said, "The widow understands that according to the plan we have formulated, maybe the descendants of the Ying family in the future will face such a situation."

"yes. During this time, the slaves often wondered how the way of the world would change after the king went to the Nine Shadows in seclusion." Zhao Gao looked up at the roof, as if imagining the scene at that time, "The descendants of the royal family who follow the king may be better, but those who stay in the court will be under great pressure."

Ying Zheng stared at the brother in front of him and said, "The widow knows that it is indeed not what you want to ask you to play the role of a troubled dynasty, and in the troubled times, the safety of Hu Hai and others is also your greatest concern."

Zhao Gaoyou sighed and looked at Ying Zheng: "With all due respect, the king's thousand-year plan is not exquisite, these close ministers have already begun to plan, but the royal family also needs a complete plan."

Ying Zheng nodded, smiled lightly, and said, "At this point, you really reminded the widow, Ying Yu's matter may be just one, the Ying family, there should be an overall plan."

Zhao Gao paused, and then said his thoughts: "The king forgives the sin, and the slave suggests that after you leave, change the royal family name to something else. Otherwise, they will be hunted down."

Ying Zheng's eyebrows moved, and he quickly thought about what Zhao Gao said.

Not to mention the royal family, even if it is an ordinary clan, the most important thing is to inherit the surname and surname of the ancestors, which is also a symbol of cultural inheritance.

Since ancient times, there have been many examples of changing family names due to external factors, some heroes will be given surnames by the monarch, and some clans will change their surnames according to migration, because their own surnames are obtained because of their origins.

But no matter how it changes, the clan will never change.

"You're right." After thinking about it for a while, Ying Zheng opened his mouth and said, "I heard Shizun say that in the land of China, it was the Yellow Emperor who created the concept of "surname", he was originally from the Xuanyuan clan, because of the defects of the previous Yan Emperor in the inheritance system, which led to Chiyou's rebellion."

"That's why the Yellow Emperor and Emperor Yan later formulated a plan for the rotation of the ruling of "Yanzi and Yellow Sun", and the Yellow Emperor proposed to add a "surname" in front of the clan, so as to make it easier to clarify the bloodline of the clan and the qualifications of the inheritance."

"Therefore, the descendants of Emperor Yan who lived in Jiangshui took Jiang as their surname, and the descendants of the Yellow Emperor who lived in Jishui took Ji as their surname."

"Later, because of the relationship between concubines, there were Yao, Hi, Ying and other family names, and the monarch of the royal family had to have his own name."

"Since the widow is the last Heavenly Inheritor, and there is no successor in the future, then the inheritance of Yanzi and Huangsun will naturally lose its meaning."

"So the difference between the surname and the first name is not so important."

Zhao Gao also said thoughtfully: "It turns out that the relationship between our surname and surname is produced in this way, what does the king mean, what should we do."

"It's easy." Ying Zheng said, "Go to the surname, stay the name."

"Go to the surname?" Zhao Gao repeated, "What does the king mean that there will be no surname Ying in China in the future, only the Zhao family?"

"Not bad." Ying Zheng said, "And not only the royal family, but also the traditions of China in the future may be changed, in this way, it can also cover up the purpose of the Yellow Emperor to set the difference between surnames."

"This, this is not a trivial matter." Zhao Gao said with some trepidation, "There are many big clans in the world, if they all change their surnames, I'm afraid it won't be easy."

Zhao Gao's worries were not unreasonable, and he made a clan surrender

It's easy to be at your feet, but if you let them change their surnames, I'm afraid they'll rather die.

"No one knows that this is indeed difficult." Ying Zheng said, "I will go and discuss this matter with my master."

The two talked and chatted, the sky was already dark, Ying Zheng wanted to go out to see Hu Yu and Ying Yu, so he asked Zhao Gao to go back to rest, put on thick clothes alone, and went out of the palace gate.

Zhao Gao knew that it was inconvenient to follow Ying Zheng at this time, so he went back to his bedroom.

Ying Zheng walked lightly towards Hu Yu's dormitory, his steps were extremely slow, and with every step, several ways to compensate Hu Yu and make her happy would flash in his mind.

Suddenly, Ying Zheng had a flash of inspiration, stopped, turned around and walked in the other direction.

In the back stable of the palace, a new independent small stable was built, which was specially repaired for Maple Leaf after Maple Leaf was sick before.

The outside of the stable is coated with thick lacquer, which is very insulating, and there is a fire inside, and the maple leaves are very comfortable inside.

Ying *** squatted beside Maple Leaf and whispered to Maple Leaf.

"Maple Leaf, the widow has been in trouble recently, and I can only say a lot to you."

"In order to fulfill the promise and run the plan for the future, the widow needs to send the newborn young son to the state of Chu."

"But the widow is reluctant, and his mother is even more reluctant, for he will probably never return to us again."

"Because he was ashamed of her, the widow didn't even dare to go to her bedroom and face her directly."

"The widow knows that this will hurt her, and it will open a scar in her heart that may never heal."

"The widow has thought of many ways, but I feel that you are the only one who can accompany her, comfort her, and heal her."

"Would you rather?"

Maple Leaf's big eyes blinked, and he gasped twice, as if in response to Yingzheng.

"The widow knows you're willing."

"You are willing to help the widow to share their troubles and relieve their sorrows."

"However, if I give you to Hu Yu, I don't know if your original master will agree."

Ying Zheng's hand caressed the neck of Maple Leaf, and he seemed to be in a tangle and was silent for a while.

"Huh......" Ying Zheng exhaled lightly and said slowly, "Let's talk about the future later, the widow has decided to send you to Hu Yu."

"Not only to compensate her, but also to make the widow's heart feel better."

"The pain is left to the widow himself."

"In the future, if you follow Hu Yu, even if she leaves the widow angrily and leaves the Qin State, you have to be by her side all the time, understand?"

Maple Leaf seemed to understand Ying Zheng's words, experienced Ying Zheng's troubles, and gently rubbed Ying Zheng's chest with his side face.

"Your Majesty."

There was a call from outside the door, and then the door to the stables opened.

appeared in front of the door, and it was Hu Yu.

I saw Hu Yu throw down the lantern in his hand, rush to Ying Zheng, and plunge into Ying Zheng's arms.

"The concubines will not go anywhere, but the concubines will listen to the king." Hu Yu choked up and said.

The next moment, the two hugged each other tightly.

Ying Zheng could no longer control his tears, and held his lover and horse tightly in his arms.
