Inside the lobby of the Zhou Mansion in Liangcheng.

With a "snap", Duchess Zhou threw the silk book of Zhubi Yushu to the ground. She didn't seem to be relieved enough, her eyes turned red instantly, and she said hatefully: "How can this be true! Zhao Zheng is simply too deceitful!"

His Majesty the First Emperor's name was shouted out without any restraint, which showed that Duchess Zhou was already angry to the extreme at this moment.

The silk book that had been thrown to the ground was now fully unfolded, and its contents were clearly visible. The gist of it is that the little daughter of Zhou Gong was born smart, and she was specially called to Xianyang, and she was ready to go to sea with Xu Fu to find immortals two years later.

The little daughter of Duke Zhou mentioned in the will is called Yu Ji and is nine years old. She saw that A-Niang was furious, and she could only shake her head helplessly for a while. Bent down to pick up the silk book on the ground, put it on the table, and said softly: "Ah Niang, the messenger is still in the house, and it is better to be careful in your words and deeds." ”

Duchess Zhou glanced at her cautious little daughter, and looked back at Duke Zhou, as if she was swearing an oath: "Ji Cheng, let me tell you, no one wants to take Ah Wei away from me this time!"

Zhou Gong, who is cowardly by nature, can't speak at all in the face of his always strong wife. In fact, after inquiring about the will, his heart was already in turmoil.

Ah Wei looked at Ah Niang, who was thundering, and then at Ah Niang, who was too void in her fugue, and could only persuade her: "Ah Niang, when will we say whether we will agree or not?"

Because of this truth, Duchess Zhou's momentum weakened in an instant. Failure to obey the order is to kill the head, and compared with the life of one person and the life of the whole clan, which is more important? She still understands.

It's one thing to understand, it's another to be able to accept it. Seven years ago, she failed to keep her eldest son A'an, could it be that this time, she wants to watch A'an follow in A'an's footsteps?

Just thinking about it, Duchess Zhou felt particularly worried.

"No, my mother can't lose you anymore!" Duchess Zhou pounced on Ah Wei and hugged her tightly, "Mother won't watch you die." ”

Ah Wei was hugged by Ah Niang all of a sudden, but she was startled. Seeing that A-Niang's emotions were agitated, she could only pat A-Niang with her backhand and comforted: "Being selected as a fairy child to serve the immortals, that is the supreme glory, why should A-Niang worry?"

"Glory?" Duchess Zhou let go of her little girl and said hatefully, "Then I'd rather not have such glory." ”

Ah Wei knew in her heart that Ah Niang was particularly reluctant to go to sea to find immortals because of her brother's death.

Seven years ago, Xu Fu said in his book that there were immortal mountains on the sea, and he bewitched the first emperor to cast a big ship and recruit boys and girls to go to sea to find immortals and seek immortal medicine. When the first emperor responded, Xu Fu took thousands of boys and girls to sea, including her brother Ji An.

A few years later, Xu Fu returned in vain, and only more than 70 children came back with him. But among them, there is no brother of hers.

Her brother died at sea, on the way to find immortals. Therefore, in A-Niang's eyes, seeking immortals is equivalent to sending them to death.

Ah Wei knew that she couldn't persuade Ah Niang, so she could only walk up to Ah Dad and said softly: "Ah Daddy is good at Yi Shu, and he has a hexagram for Ah Wo, see if there is room for maneuver in this matter?"

King Wen detained and played Zhou Yi, and the divination skills of the Ji family have always been extremely effective. As the Duke of Zhou, who is the descendant of the Zhou royal family, Ji Cheng is undoubtedly the best among them.

Zhou Gong raised his head and looked at his naturally intelligent daughter, knowing that she was helping him out of the siege and appeasing his wife by the way. I had to straighten up, sighed, took out a handful of yarrow from my sleeve, and after some silent blessing, scattered it on the ground.

Ah Wan was silent, and after seeing the hexagram formed by yarrow, a wry smile crossed her face. She leaned over and held the grass in her hand, and gave the same silent blessing before scattering it.

Yarrow fell to the ground one after another, but the same trapped hexagram was formed. Ah Wei had no choice but to kick the chaotic hexagram, and said helplessly: "Providence is like this, Daddy and Auntie should let me go!"

If something is undecided, you might as well ask about it. Since Providence is like this, she can only go this one. A smile tugged at the corner of her lips, the rivers and mountains are good, the palace is deep, and it's good to go and see it.

Duchess Zhou secretly wept, but she was also concerned about the results of the divination. At this moment, seeing that the two divinations were all sleepy, he immediately cried: "Is there really no room for maneuver? The concubine has only two children, Ah An and Ah Wei. Seven years ago, he ordered Ah An to go to sea, saying that he was going to the sea to find the immortal mountain and ask for immortal medicine. But what happened to the result? Then Xu Fu came back, but what about my A'an? A'an, he didn't even leave a corpse. Now that he's ordered to ask for Ah Lou, doesn't he want my life?"

When Zhou Gong heard his wife's cry, he thought of Ji An, who died young, and looked at Ah Wei who looked like a relative, and couldn't help but cry. How generous is Heaven for the mercy of a pair of wise sons and daughters. But how cruel Heaven is to snatch these children away from him!

At this moment, Zhou Gong was even a little heartbroken. He has been cowardly all his life, and he has lived all his life, for what? Not for the continuation of the bloodline of the Zhou royal family?

From King Qin Zhaoxiang to the current First Emperor, the hands of the person surnamed Ying are stained with the blood of the person surnamed Ji.

Ah An is gone, but he still has Ah Yao. Even if Ah Wei is just a daughter's family, so what? After all, what flows in her body is the blood of his Zhou royal family, and she is the descendant of the noble Son of Heaven.

Looking at the silk book on the case again, Zhou Gong couldn't help but think, what kind of sea to find immortals, what kind of boys and girls? Isn't he Zhao Zheng just trying to make his Zhou royal family extinct without blood.

Zhou Gong hated Zhao Zheng very much at the moment. But he is not a lady, he doesn't dare to be rash and vent at will. In order to survive, he has always shown cowardice, but if he is really a fool, how can he survive so far? It's useless to just cry. ”

When Duchess Zhou heard this, she immediately stopped crying, and asked directly: "Okay, I won't cry! I want to listen, what are you going to do as a father?"

Zhou Gong smiled bitterly when he heard this, things came suddenly, where did he come up with a good idea?

Duchess Zhou stared at Zhou Gong for a long time, then turned around and took off the bronze saber on the bi, pulled out the sharp sword, and held a sword flower in her hand: "You say, if you go to kill the chamberlain and his subordinates now, and lie that you haven't received the edict, won't Ah Wei have to go to Xianyang?"

"Don't be rash!" Zhou Gong hurriedly stood up, stopped his wife, shook his head and said, "Their trip is public, and everyone inside and outside Liangcheng knows about entering my Zhou Gong's mansion. If you kill them at this moment, do you think the one above will believe it? If you provoke him, I am afraid that even your concubine will suffer from it. ”

Duchess Zhou is not afraid of death, if she can't even protect her only daughter, what is the point of her life? She is not afraid of death, she pushes herself and others, presumably Zhou Gong has also put life and death aside at this moment. It's just that if this matter involves the concubine surnamed Chen, she can't bear it.

But it is impossible for her to give up like this. It was Duchess Zhou who said directly: "It's not good in the house, then it's always okay to get out of the house!" After they leave Liangcheng with Ah Wei tomorrow, we will arrange for someone to rob and kill Ah Wan halfway and take Ah Wei back——"

Zhou Gong's eyes couldn't help but light up when he heard this: "When I save Ah Wei, I will disguise myself as a common man and escape." Or find another female corpse that is the same as Ah Yao's body, and fake the illusion that Ah Lou was killed......"

As soon as Duchess Zhou was about to nod her head in agreement, she heard Ah Yu's voice ringing in her ears: "Can this confuse Daqin's inner servants? ”

Zhou Gong and his wife listened to Ah Wei's words, and couldn't help but be silent for a while.

Yes, how could it be possible to hide it from Daqin's chamberlain? Even if it can be concealed for a while, how can it be concealed for a lifetime? Looking back, not only will the Zhou Mansion and its former subordinates be uprooted, but even the Chen family will be afraid that they will also be subjected to the Zhulian in the name of hiding fugitives.

Duchess Zhou was undecided for a while.

Zhou Gong looked at this daughter, who had been calm since he received the edict, and asked abruptly: "Ah Yao, do you have a better idea?"

Hearing this, Ah Wei immediately nodded and said, "Which one is less expensive to assassinate a team of Great Qin's inner servants or to assassinate a warlock Xu Fu?" Providence is hard to disobey, Xianyang I will decide. In this case, why don't you retreat and seek the root cause and kill it. not only to relieve the siege for Ah Yao, but also to avenge Ah Brother by the way. ”

After listening to Ah Wei's words, Zhou Gong and his wife glanced at each other and saw firmness in each other's eyes.

"It's a brilliant plan. Zhou Gong stroked his hands and praised.

Duchess Zhou also smiled. She put down her sword, took Ah Yao's hand and praised: "My Ah Lou is really born smart. ”

Seeing that her father and mother were praising her, Ah Wei couldn't help but sigh in her heart, this was just a trick to surround Wei and save Zhao.

However, her father was willing to accept her suggestion, and Ah Yao's heart that had been hanging was relaxed. In fact, she is not afraid of going to sea to find immortals, nor is she afraid of death. What she is most afraid of is that her father and mother are angry, acting rashly, and taking risks alone, leading to an irreparable situation.

"If Xu Fu is assassinated, my father and mother still have two years to make careful arrangements. Ah Wei said with a firm gaze, "Don't startle the snake, you will be hit with one shot." ”

Duchess Zhou smiled: "That's nature. ”

Although Zhou Gong breathed a sigh of relief, his heart still did not let go. He said worriedly: "It's just like this, Ah Yao, you are going to enter Xianyang alone." "Put his only bloodline into Xianyang and put it under Zhao Zheng's nose, as a father, how can he be indifferent?

Ah Wei comforted: "Daddy rest assured, Ah Wei will cherish her life and wait for good news in Xianyang." ”

Although Mrs. Zhou was reluctant to take the risk alone, compared to going to sea to die, she was much calmer at the moment. She secretly swore in her heart that no matter what the price, she would kill Xu Fu. Avenge A'an and save A'an's woe.

Zhou Gong saw that his wife was calm because of Ah Wei's words, and he had nothing to say for a while. He knew that Ah Wei was not like him, but more like her aunt, and she had a big idea since she was a child. When I was a child, I refused to learn easily, so I had to worship the historian. If it weren't for the temptation of him to join the historian to learn history, I am afraid that Ah Wei will never be willing to learn easily.

Even though she is only nine years old now, her wisdom is beyond the reach of many masters who are over half a hundred years old. I remember that Lao Taishi sighed more than once that Ah Wei has a talent for learning history, but it's a pity that she is a daughter.

Therefore, Zhou Gong was particularly worried about Ah Wei's safety. Ah Wei entered Xianyang, if she is a simple and stable character, there is a Zhou Mansion for a day, and staying in Xianyang is not at risk of life. But she ......

Everyone has their own fate, and now they can only take one step at a time.
