Chapter 155: Stronger and Afraid of Pain
Ying Zheng glared at Ying Chengcheng: "You dare to say this in front of your grandmother?" β
Ying Chengcheng said calmly: "Why don't you dare? β
"Grandmother should also understand that what my brother said is right."
"If my grandmother dies tonight, it will not be a good thing for Brother Wang and for the relatives of the Chu family."
"But it's definitely a good thing for my grandmother herself."
Ying Zheng said angrily: "That's you and my grandmother!" β
Ying Chengcheng said seriously: "So some words should be explained in advance." β
"That's you, my grandmother, not Chang Yu!"
Ying Zheng was silent, just pouring wine into his mouth.
But the taste of the wine is so bitter.
Ying Chengcheng put the wine jar on the ground and said in a deep voice: "Brother went to find grandmother." β
"Brother, what do you want my brother to bring to my grandmother?"
Ying Zheng also put down the wine jar.
After pondering for a long time, Ying Zheng finally spoke: "Please don't worry about the government, the widow is about to be crowned!" β
Leaving the dormitory of Xianyang Palace, Ying Chengcheng waved off his servants and walked to Huayang Palace alone with a torch.
"Chang'an-kun?"
Mi Chen, who was directing the eunuch to carry the corpse, saw Ying Chengcheng go and return, and his face was surprised: "The night is dark, and Chang'anjun has been tired for many days, why hasn't he rested?" β
Ying Cheng smiled and spoke: "Didn't my uncle never sleep?" β
Mi Chen smiled: "Why does it take a day or two to wake up from this sleep." β
"Before you go to sleep, clean the battlefield and find all the wounded soldiers who are not dead."
"Otherwise, wouldn't this gentleman be worthy of the expectations of the soldiers."
"I don't know why Chang'anjun is here?"
Ying Cheng bowed: "This gentleman is here to visit the Queen Mother of Huayang, I don't know if the Queen Mother has slept peacefully?" β
Mi Chen's smile slowly converged: "The Queen Mother has not slept yet." β
"Alas~ It's good if you can come here."
"You don't need to go through it, go find the Queen Mother."
After saying thank you, Ying Chengcheng walked through the Huayang Palace, walked outside the door of the dormitory of the Huayang Palace, and asked loudly.
"Grandmother has fallen asleep?"
After more than ten breaths, the Empress Dowager Huayang finally responded hoarsely and weakly in the hall: "It's Chan'er, right?" β
"Come in."
Ying Chengcheng immediately entered the main hall, and saw the emaciated but upright posture of the queen of Huayang sitting on the soft couch.
And in front of the Empress Dowager Huayang, there was a white silk hanging down from the beam of the house!
Ying Cheng exclaimed: "Grandmother! β
Running quickly to the side of the Empress Dowager Huayang, Ying Chengcheng asked in surprise: "What are you going to do?!" β
The Empress Dowager Huayang looked up at the white silk and said in a faint voice: "Lone is thinking, Lone may die tonight." β
Ying Cheng was silent.
Coincidentally, he thought so too.
But Ying Chengcheng did not say this out of resentment or curse.
Although the Empress Dowager Huayang did not help Ying Chengcheng at the critical moment, Ying Chengchan would not resent the Empress Dowager Huayang because of this.
The Empress Dowager Huayang doesn't owe Ying Chengcheng!
The Empress Dowager Huayang helped, Ying Chengcheng remembered her feelings, if the Empress Dowager Huayang didn't help, it was just the duty of the Empress Dowager Huayang.
Ying Chengcheng has no personal grudges against the Empress Dowager Huayang, and even has some family affection.
The reason why Ying Chengcheng hopes that the Empress Dowager Huayang will die in this battle is that it can severely hurt the Chu relatives, and she doesn't want this old man to face the scene she least wants to see!
The main enemies of the Chu family were LΓΌ Buwei, Empress Dowager Xia, and Zhao Ji.
But as this big war came to an end, the biggest enemy of Chu's relatives became Yingzheng!
One side is the grandson, and the other side is the nephew of the mother's family.
The palms and backs of her hands are full of meat, but the Empress Dowager Huayang has to choose one side to help, and sit back and watch one of them kill the other.
For an old man who pampers his juniors, this is a bit too cruel!
"Scared by Lonely?" The Empress Dowager Huayang squeezed out a smile: "Or does it mean that Ji'er also thinks that what Gu said is right?" β
Ying Chengcheng sighed softly: "My grandson also thinks that what my grandmother said is right. β
The Empress Dowager Huayang looked up at the white silk and said faintly: "However, I can't do it myself." β
"Gu doesn't dare to hang under the white silk in person, can Ji'er help Gu'er?"
"Be stronger, be afraid of pain."
Outside the door of the dormitory, the core of the Chu system such as Mi Li and Xiong Xia were impressively listed.
Qi Chen had already tightened the hilt of his sword, and his eyes were full of vigilance.
As long as Ying Cheng dares to draw his sword, Mi Chen will lead everyone to rush into the palace!
Looking at the emaciated appearance of the Empress Dowager Huayang, Ying Chengcheng said softly: "Grandmother, it will be fine." β
Empress Dowager Huayang shook her head lightly: "You also heard Xiong Xia's words." β
"Since the contradiction is born from the heart, it is not so easy to resolve."
"Zheng'er came too early, he shouldn't have come back so early!"
In the eyes of the relatives of the Chu family, it was they who ascended to the throne with Yingzheng in their hands.
Yingzheng should give them heavy rewards, and even listen to them, otherwise how can they be worthy of their efforts!
But that's not the case, and Ying Zheng doesn't think so.
If Chu's relatives are weak, even if they are dissatisfied, they are helpless.
But after this great war, the remaining forces of the Chu relatives were already the strongest forces in Great Qin.
There are contradictions, dissatisfaction, and strength, and it is impossible for the Chu relatives to endure the anger in their hearts, and they will inevitably have contradictions with Yingzheng!
Ying Chengcheng smiled: "Because the eldest brother has his grandmother in his heart." β
"Please also ask my grandmother to think about it, and the affairs of the DPRK and China will be decided by the DPRK and China."
"Brother Wang is about to be crowned, and these troublesome things will be handled by Brother Wang."
"If my grandmother is not comfortable living in Huayang Palace, she will come to her grandson's Chang'an Mansion."
"My grandson will accompany you to go fishing, enjoy the flowers, and ignore their disturbances."
The Empress Dowager Huayang said lightly: "They will come to find the orphans." β
"This purity can't be hidden."
Ying Cheng made a big move: "Grandmother, the grandson has not yet given birth to an heir." β
"Doesn't grandmother want to see her great-grandson?"
The Empress Dowager Huayang's eyes flickered obviously.
Children are the weakness rooted in the heart of the Empress Dowager Huayang!
Ying Chengcheng took advantage of the victory to pursue: "Grandmother doesn't want to see flesh and blood kill each other, and neither do the grandchildren." β
"If anyone loses the battle, they will be sent to the Weishui River to accompany their grandmother to fish!"
The Empress Dowager Huayang finally smiled: "Is the political struggle such a child's play?" β
Ying Chengcheng spread his hands: "They are all relatives, why bother to kill them?" β
This is the biggest difference between the Empress Dowager Huayang and the Changyu family.
are all relatives, don't talk about the court fight, that is, they will keep their hands as much as possible during the national war.
The Empress Dowager Huayang sighed lightly: "In this way, Lone is relieved." β
Ying Chengyun immediately drew his sword to cut off Bai Aya, and said with a smile: "Grandmother, then this grandson of Bai Aya will be taken away." β
"Yo, it's still a good fabric!"
The Empress Dowager Huayang smiled: "You are a lazy person, you said that you came to visit Lonely, but you didn't fall in vain!" β
The grandfather and grandson talked and laughed for a while, and when the Empress Dowager Huayang yawned tiredly, Ying Chengcheng finally retired.
Suddenly pushed open the door of the hall, Ying Chengcheng looked at the side of the main hall.
"What is Chang'anjun looking at?" Seeing this, Qi Chen asked lightly.
Ying Cheng smiled: "Let's see if there are any three hundred axes hidden behind the door." β
Mi Chen smiled: "Chang'anjun is too worried!" β
"The war is over, the king has returned to Xianyang Palace, how can anyone in the palace dare to use swords except for eunuchs and guards?"
Ying Chengcheng nodded: "After many battles, Benjun really can't bear it." β
"Now I am in high spirits, but my nerves are a little trance, and Benjun really needs to go back to sleep early."
"Grandmother is in a better mood, but she still needs more care from her uncle."
Mi Chen bowed his head: "It should be so." β
After saying goodbye and seeing Ying Cheng go away, dozens of figures walked out behind the pillars on both sides of the dormitory.
"He's really here?" Man Bear stared at one eye, quite shocked.
Mi Chen said lightly: "Seeing that we are not dead, the king may not be able to sleep tonight." β
"The king and the queen mother can't communicate on this matter, but fortunately, there is Chang'anjun who can mediate from it."
Xiong asked, "What was the result?" β
Mi Chen shook his head: "I don't know. β
After the words fell, Mi Chen pushed open the door of the dormitory.
Looking at the people standing outside the dormitory, the Empress Dowager Huayang said in a deep voice: "Lone knows, you and the others all desire higher status and more rights, and for this reason, they may even threaten the king." β
"But the ugly words are ahead."
"That's Lone's grandson!"
"Don't use your troops! Don't shake your foundation! Don't damage the interests of Daqin! β
"All struggles must be under control!"
Empress Dowager Huayang's voice turned sharp: "If anyone dares to exceed the rules, he will be killed by his relatives!" β
Xiong Xia and other subordinates suddenly gave up their hands: "Only! β
The Empress Dowager Huayang bowed slightly: "I'm lonely, let's go." β
The door of the palace was closed again, and the Empress Dowager Huayang looked at the white silk that was cut off by Yingcheng: "I have lived a lifetime, and I am the one who knows how to be lonely best!" β
The Empress Dowager Huayang really wants to hang herself on that white silk!
The responsibility on her shoulders made it impossible for the Empress Dowager Huayang to hang Bai Aya around her neck in person.
But if Ying Chengcheng is really willing to help her, she doesn't know if she will struggle.
β¦β¦
Xianyang Palace dormitory.
Seeing Ying Cheng Chan coming back, Ying Zheng threw the jar of wine that Ying Cheng Chan hadn't finished drinking, and asked with a smile: "Was reprimanded by my grandmother?" β
Ying Chengcheng took the wine jar and smiled: "My brother told my grandmother that my brother hopes that my grandmother will die in this battle." β
Ying Zheng smacked his tongue: "You really dare to say it!" β
After speaking, Ying Zheng smiled: "It's true, you don't even dare to dig the ancestral grave, what else can't you do?" β
Ying Chengcheng poured a sip of wine and said lightly: "When my brother arrived at Huayang Palace, my grandmother faced Bai Aya and made it clear the contradiction between Xiong Xia and others and my brother. β
"My brother should be honest."
"My brother and grandmother agreed that if anyone loses the battle, they will be sent to go fishing with grandmother by the Weishui River."
Ying Chengcheng and Ying Zheng both understood that the Empress Dowager Huayang was threatening her own life and asked the two sides to control the intensity of the struggle below the level of blood.
If the struggle exceeds this standard, the Empress Dowager Huayang will commit suicide first!
If the Empress Dowager Huayang commits suicide, the Chu relatives will definitely suffer a heavy blow, and the contradictions between them and Ying Zheng will be irreconcilable, and with the current strength of the Chu relatives, even if they suffer heavy losses, they can still bring a fatal blow to Ying Zheng!
Empress Dowager Huayang's move is equivalent to advocating the removal of the roof to allow everyone to open a skylight.
Ying Zheng bowed slightly: "This is beneficial to us." β
"But I don't know how much control my grandmother has over her relatives in the Chu family?"
