Chapter 26: The Lesser-Known Side of Ying Zheng

"Sometimes, I think he's pitiful. Gainie's voice was slightly muffled, and there was a hint of pity in his eyes.

"Hey!" Seeing Gai Nie's appearance, Xiao Zhuang was unhappy from the bottom of his heart, he frowned, grabbed Gai Nie's shoulder with one hand, shook it vigorously twice, and said loudly: "Senior brother, you sober me up!" Xiao Zhuang was a little angry in his words.

When Guiguzi saw that Xiao Zhuang was moving his hands and feet against Gai Nie, he immediately shouted: "Presumptuous! Let go of your senior brother!"

Reprimanded by Guiguzi, Xiao Zhuang meaninglessly withdrew the arm holding Gai Nie, pursed the corners of his mouth, looking depressed, and then changed to another elbow against the armrest of the sofa, holding his chin with his hand, and staring idly at the damp moisture rising from the teacup. The white smoke like a cloud is outlining the lines of the wind, wrapping around the entire room, and the faint fragrance of tea fills the air.

"The so-called 'poor people must have something to hate', the truth of this sentence does not need to be explained to you by the teacher. Guiguzi stared at Gai Nie with some concern, and said earnestly, he knew that Gai Nie had a compassionate heart since he was a child, and even if he met Yingzheng, the master who claimed to kill people in the rivers and lakes without blinking, he would have pity.

At this time when Guiguzi and Gai Nie were talking, Xiao Zhuang's eyes wandered to the bonsai plum blossoms on the coffee table, the pot of plum blossoms was specially bought by Gai Nie to decorate the family, not because of anything else, but because he thought you liked flowers, so he bought it.

Gai Nie has always liked flowers and plants, this pot of plum blossoms he really liked at a glance, only to see that the red petals, stained with a little white, as if dyed with snow, shy stamens blooming in it, shining with crystals, probably because Gai Nie has just taken care of it, watered the reason

Xiao Zhuang didn't care about Gai Nie at this moment, he casually took a petal, put it in the palm of his hand and rubbed it gently, the water on the petals was smeared, and the faint crimson was dyed in his palm, forming a strange pattern.

The pot of flowers is Gai Nie carefully cared for a long time, day after day of careful care, will bloom such a beautiful and delicate flowers today, at this moment, plum blossoms are being rubbed by Xiao Zhuang at will, Xiao Zhuang's fingertips have a faint fragrance of flowers probably because Xiao Zhuang likes to rub the petals, right?

The petals were kneaded into thin strips of red and white, and the rich floral fragrance was emitted by it, and Xiao Zhuang casually threw it in the trash, and then the crimson fingertips stretched out again towards a delicate plum blossom.

Gai Nie knew that his current arm was too short to stop Xiao Zhuang at all, so he picked up the wooden sword engraved with his name and stretched out it against Xiao Zhuang's fingertips, Gai Nie's eyes showed displeasure, staring at Xiao Zhuang tightly, signaling Xiao Zhuang not to continue.

Xiao Zhuang understood what Gai Nie meant, and now he couldn't even pick up the flowers, Xiao Zhuang leaned on the sofa again boringly, rubbing the faint crimson color of his palm that was wet, and looked restlessly at the wooden sword in Gai Nie's hand from time to time.

Gai Nie saw that Xiao Zhuang withdrew his hand, no longer staring at his plum blossoms, and only then breathed a sigh of relief.

"I understand, Master. Gai Nie's eyes were sincere, and he replied to Guiguzi's words.

"Think of his vicious face when he attacked the Six Nations, Senior Brother. Xiao Zhuang casually picked up a piece of paper on the coffee table, wiped off the water traces squeezed out of the plum blossoms in his palm, and said in a strange voice: "Don't be confused by his appearance." Between Xiao Zhuang's words, the meaning revealed seemed to be jealous.

"I'm just talking about things and not taking sides with him. Gai Nie's expression changed to facial paralysis again, and he said with a dull face.

"Huh~" Xiao Zhuang saw that Gai Nie's oil and salt did not enter, and made a contemptuous sound, playing with Gai Nie's wooden sword in his hand, no one knew when he took this wooden sword.

Gai Nie's words box opened, just like the Yangtze River flowing endlessly, out of control, only to hear Gai Nie continue: "The demise of the Six Kingdoms is also partly their own trouble, right?"

"As far as I know, Yingzheng has never killed any of the kings and nobles of the former six countries. Just captured them and treated them well, Ying Zheng built some buildings similar to the former Six Kingdoms not far from Xianyang to house the nobles of the former Six Kingdoms, so that they could spend the rest of their lives without worrying about food and clothing. It can be said that Yingzheng has rarely even slaughtered the city.

Saying that, Gai Nie looked at Xiaozhuang: "However, there are no absolutes in everything, the former King of Han surrendered, and Ying Zheng gave him to be the vassal king not far from his hometown." Within a few years, the former Korean nobles gathered anti-Qin forces, invaded Qin Xinjiang, and were eliminated by Yingzheng, and the death of King Han was caused by the former Korean nobles, not Yingzheng's wishes. And it is also common for the six countries to repay grievances with virtue. ”

At the mention of the word 'Korea', Xiao Zhuang's brows furrowed for a moment, and then his eyes showed mockery: "He is really your male god!" Xiao Zhuang was contaminated with anger, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was like a ghost from hell, he seemed to be smiling, gritting his teeth and saying: "And then? What other words to praise him? What other great things did he do?"

Gai Nie heard Xiao Zhuang's angry words, and thought very seriously for a while, and then spoke: "I remember that he told me why he wanted to unify the six countries. ”

"Hmph~ Then senior brother, you said to listen to it. Xiao Zhuang said, he originally intended to ask Gai Nie to stop talking, but he was still talking angrily because of his stubbornness.

Guiguzi picked up a few crimson plum petals, put them in the teacup, and watched the petals gradually merge with the water and slowly settle into the bottom of the cup.

The smell of gunpowder between the brothers became stronger and stronger, but Guiguzi ignored it at all, and only fell silent in his own tranquility.

"I remember one day, it was just when the anti-Qin aristocratic forces of the former Han were defeated, and just after winning the battle, Ying Zheng first held a banquet in the palace to celebrate, and when the banquet was over, he had a few drinks with me in the inner court. ”

Gai Nie said attentively, he didn't notice the murderous intent between Xiao Zhuang's eyebrows at this moment.

He said, years of war, endless, I don't know when it will end, today you eat a city of mine, tomorrow I will attack a city, such a life of endless strife, the people still suffer from sin. The best way at the moment is to emerge a country and unify these scattered countries, so that there is no distinction between friend and foe, the world is one family, and from then on cultivate and recuperate, rich and happy, such a happy land, Yingzheng wants to create. Now only the Great Qin and Chu of Yingzheng can have this strength. Chu is not as good as Great Qin, so the unification of the world should be the Great Qin of Yingzheng, and it should be the matter of the moment. Gai Nie continued: "Ying Zheng also said that he suffered when he was a proton, he said that he was simply the most lowly existence at that time, and the dog could also wag his tail and beg to please others, but he represented Daqin, even if he froze to death and starved to death in another country, he had to endure it." Even if someone wants to kill themselves, they can't act rashly, the identity of the proton is special, and the slightest action may trigger a war between the two countries at any time, causing unnecessary casualties. ”

Xiao Zhuang lowered his head and fiddled with Gai Nie's wooden sword, silent. Guiguzi also seemed to be lost in thought.

In short, he raised troops and rioted with a small body. It's really admirable. Gagnie said, a hint of respect flashing in his eyes.

In his ears, the sound of a wind being cut by a sharp blade swept by, followed by a loud sound of duang~, Gai Nie and Guiguzi both heard the sound and saw that on the TV background wall, Gai Nie's wooden sword was deeply embedded in it again, and it was still the same position last time, and it was embedded exactly the same. The crack in the background wall of the TV extended even longer, reaching the ceiling before stopping, and fine pieces of sand and gravel flowed out of the crack and landed on the empty TV stand, and the breeze blew and scattered in all directions.

Guiguzi is glad that the TV has not been bought yet, otherwise it would have to be replaced with a new one.

"Hmph~ It doesn't matter if he unifies the Six Kingdoms, no matter how great it is, it's none of my business, I'll ask you, senior brother!" Xiao Zhuang's tiger looked at Gai Nie, as if Gai Nie would eat him in one bite if he had a different answer: "What about after you drink with him?"

Guiguzi silently picked up the teacup in his hand, gently blew the heat on it, and kept staring at the crack that almost permeated the entire TV background wall, and the wooden sword was still deeply embedded in the wall, as if it had grown inside.

Gai Nie pondered for a while, Gai Nie originally intended to hesitate whether it was a little bad to be so explicit in front of Guiguzi, but Xiao Zhuang mistakenly thought that Gai Nie had answered the question by default with silent silence.

Xiao Zhuang's breathing became more and more rapid, as if he was about to explode, and Gai Nie Liang slowly said after a long time: "Yingzheng is not good at drinking, and the wine he drinks at every banquet is a drink or white water pretending to be wine, but when he drinks with me, it is real wine, but he is not strong enough to drink, and he will go to sleep after a few drinks." ”

At this time, Guiguzi looked at the TV background wall, and suddenly as if he remembered something, he picked up his wallet and coat, and went out.

The door was slammed shut, Xiao Zhuang waited for a while, and made sure that Guiguzi was far away, and then asked Gai Nie loudly: "You said that Yingzheng will sleep after a few drinks, what do you sleep, with whom?"

Gai Nie knew that Xiao Zhuang was jealous, he took Xiao Zhuang's hand, kissed it gently, and said softly: "Ying Zheng loves to sleep as soon as he drinks, and every time he drinks two glasses, Zhao Gao carries him away." (As soon as Guiguzi left, this style of painting changed instantly!)

"Hmph~ It seems that you have drunk with him several times. Xiao Zhuang saw that Gai Nie had changed back to the way he was last night, and his heart softened, but his mouth was still stubborn.

"No, just a few times once in a while, socializing" Gai Nie defended helplessly.

"Social? That's a good excuse. As he spoke, Xiao Zhuang's face was close to Gai Nie, the tips of his noses rubbed against each other, and Xiao Zhuang said like a child: "If Senior Brother sleeps with me tonight, I will forgive Senior Brother." ”

Gai Nie smiled lightly and kissed Xiao Zhuang on the forehead dotingly.
