Chapter 42: ruler of the world
Chapter 42 The One Who Ruled the World
In the Xianyang Palace, the corridors are wide.
"Huai'er, the widow has something to say to you, why don't you ask what it is?" King Zhuangxiang spoke first.
"Father, please speak." Zhao Huaizhong reluctantly clapped.
"You know that there is an envoy from the Qi people." King Zhuangxiang asked.
Zhao Huaizhong nodded, thinking that King Zhuangxiang was trying to compare his opinion that Qiren came here, so he calmly said: "The Han people are retreating under the front of our Qin army, so they can only seek external forces to try to make me Daqin retreat.
Most of the people from Qi came here to act as lobbyists. The father and the king only accepted the benefits of dredging them, and he didn't care about retreating. "
King Zhuangxiang showed a relieved expression: "It's rare that Huai'er has such an opinion, but this is not what the widow said."
"The envoys of the Qi people brought me a lot of rare things in Daqin, including two famous beauties from the state of Qi."
King Zhuangxiang finished his words, and looked at his son with a strange expression.
"Two women?" Zhao Huaizhong didn't quite understand what Dad wanted to express.
King Zhuangxiang said bluntly: "You are almost seventeen years old, why do you never favor women?
The maids around you are all carefully selected and beautiful. My mother and I were talking about this yesterday. Huaier, you have been in Qin for more than a year, and it seems that you have never seen a lucky woman. Why? "
So the Qi people sent two beauties to me?
King Zhuangxiang's worry is not difficult to understand in Zhao Huaizhong, mainly because his predecessor was too addicted to women's **** and tasted seafood during the period of Zhao State's hostage.
It is impossible for King Zhuangxiang not to know about these things. When Zhao Huaizhong first came back, he was not a womanizer. King Zhuangxiang and Zhao Ji were quite happy, thinking that their son would work hard and do his best.
However, for more than a year, I have never touched a woman.
The key is that when I was in Zhao, I liked playing very much, but when I came back, I suddenly stopped playing. This is not normal.
King Zhuangxiang had some old fathers in his heart, and he was afraid of hurting the self-esteem of this son who had been a hostage in Zhao for many years, and tentatively said:
"In addition to two beautiful women from Qi, there is also a flame scarlet cloud beast, which is an excellent mount. The widow wants to give these things to Wang'er, what do you think?"
"Cibei, it's pretty good. But I can't use a beautiful woman right now. The Scarlet Cloud Beast sounds good." Zhao Huaizhong said.
Instead of riding a beauty, you want to ride a red cloud beast?
King Zhuangxiang couldn't help but glanced at Zhao Huaizhong's waist and abdomen, and with a wave of his hand, the attendants immediately retreated far away.
"Huai'er, tell the truth to the widow, did you hurt your roots while you were in the state of Zhao... have a hidden disease?"
"God hurt the root..."
Zhao Huaizhong denied: "No."
King Zhuangxiang asked again, "Have you not practiced the secret art of human relations for your father and you, is it ineffective?"
Zhao Huaizhong said sternly: "Father, the king should understand my cultivation talent. I practiced to the top in one day, and a year has passed, and it is unprecedented."
King Zhuangxiang's face was solemn, and he obviously didn't believe it: "Then why are you never close to women?"
This is a question that can only be understood. I'm not even seventeen, and I'm a minor. If I dare to approach women now, the result must be disastrous... Zhao Huaizhong squinted forty-five degrees and looked at the sky.
Pushes the girl for a while, the whole family crematorium.
"I came back from the state of Zhao as a hostage, and I swore that I would not be close to women for two years. My father and king don't have to worry about it."
Zhao Huai Zhongxin said nonsense. Seeing that King Zhuangxiang wanted to continue to ask, he hurriedly changed the subject, took out a small gourd and handed it over, explaining the function of the gourd.
There are five gourds in total, and giving one to King Zhuangxiang is considered honoring his father.
Zhao Ji has no practice, so she can save one and don't need to give.
"There is such a strange thing, can it hold a lot of things?" King Zhuangxiang was indeed diverted his attention and examined the gourd in his hand.
The gourd given to King Zhuangxiang has been simply sacrificed by Zhao Huaizhong, and it can be used as long as it is pushed by mana.
He immediately put in and took out a few of his belongings, and it felt amazing.
"Can this thing hold living things?" King Zhuangxiang asked suddenly.
Zhao Huaizhong squinted at his father: "What does the king want to do?"
"If you can put your grandmother in it and carry it with you, it will also be fun. Your grandmother will feel novel if she wants to come." King Zhuangxiang said with a longing.
You have to put your daughter-in-law in a gourd and carry it with you. You really know how to play... Zhao Huaizhong gave a thumbs up: "You can store and store living things, but my mother doesn't practice cultivation, so it's not easy to spend too long.
I still have something to do, so I retire first. "
King Zhuangxiang waved his hand, and walked towards Zhangtai Palace at a quicker pace. It seemed that he was in a hurry to use a gourd for his daughter-in-law.
Zhao Huaizhong breathed a sigh of relief, went out of the palace and went straight to Ye Yufu, buried his head in work, and began to review various files.
The day passes quickly, and the night never fails to come again.
The stars twinkled on the dome.
At the gate of the palace, Liu Qi, who followed Zhao Huaizhong out of Xianyang Palace in the evening, looked terrified and said at the risk of death, "It's too dangerous for the prince to come out so late, if the prince knows that the minister is dead, the minister asks the prince to return to the palace. "
He muttered repeatedly, Zhao Huaizhong laughed and said, "If you are not allowed to come out, you have to follow.
Are you afraid that I am in danger, or are you worried that we will go out of the palace at night and be known by the father, and your life will be gone? "
Liu Qi knelt down and kowtowed: "The minister is mainly worried about the prince."
Zhao Huaizhong smiled and said, "Get up. Do you think we can really sneak out of the palace?
When you are the guard in the palace, you only eat idle meals? "
Liu Qi was pleasantly surprised: "The prince means that the king knows and will allow you to leave the palace?"
Zhao Huaizhong: "Father, I probably don't know yet. What I'm talking about is that in addition to the guards you can see, there are other people in the dark to protect you from losing your head.
And I came out with business. "
Xianyang in early October has become a little cooler, and the cold wind is blowing.
Zhao Huaizhong walked out of the palace gate proudly, and walked in one direction, with Wu Jia and Jiang Si behind him in addition to Liu Qi.
He walked to the shadow of a building on the opposite side, and a person appeared silently in it, which startled Liu Qi.
The man opposite bowed and said, "Your Majesty!"
Appeared was Ye Yu’s deputy Shi Baiyao.
Zhao Huaizhong just raised his hand, and Baiyao turned around to lead the way.
Two quarters of an hour later, Bai Yao took Zhao Huaizhong to a dim alley with little light.
Across the long street outside the Hutong is a brightly lit temple.
There are red windproof lamps hanging outside the temple, and the four ancient characters of Luoyu Ningcui are written on the plaque of the gate, which is quite elegant.
"What happened here?" Zhao Huaizhong frowned.
Luoyu Ningcui, also known as Xiaoqinlou, is a government-run prostitute village, also known as Nulu.
During the Spring and Autumn Period, Guan Zhong, a native of Qi, was the founder of the women's robes.
Zhao Huaizhong saw a file during the day, involving a case recently investigated by Ye Yufu. Because he found clues in the city, he made an appointment with Baiyao at night to come and have a look.
Baiyao said: "A lot of strange things have happened in my Qinjing recently, and the last clues all point to here.
There is a newcomer in this Xiaoqin Building. On the surface, it is a Kabuki who has traveled all over the world. She does not sell herself as a performer. once.
It is said that Wen Xiying traveled to various countries in order to find a person who could rule the world. If he finds a bright master, he would like to give him one of the six ancient mirrors. "
The person who dominates the world, doesn't that say me... Why do I feel that this is a routine.
The bone mirror seems to be a legendary treasure.
Zhao Huaizhong pondered: "Then go in and have a look."
"No!"
In the shadows of the buildings on both sides of the , many figures suddenly appeared, all of whom were elites from Ye Yufu.
Zhao Huaizhong went out of the palace at night, Baiyao and others took his safety as the first priority, and used a lot of good hands to accompany him.
Mu Qingtian, Xia Xin and other Ye Yufu warriors were among them.
Zhao Huaizhong glanced at everyone: "Don't follow along, it will be too eye-catching. This is Xianyang, there is not so much danger, just one or two people will follow."
Everyone turned to Mu Qingkong in unison.
Xia Xin said loudly: "If only one or two people are chosen to follow the prince in, a certain person thinks that Mu Qingkong is the most suitable. He is male and female, and it fits the environment of Xiaoqinlou, so it is not easy to attract attention."
You are a boy and a girl, and it fits the environment of Qinlou. Your whole family is a boy and a girl...
Mu Qingkong raised his eyebrows upright, his face full of anger.
Baiyao vetoed: "Mu Qingkong can't do it, he looks too handsome, but it is easy to be noticed by others."
Xia Xin added: "You can let him wear women's clothes, and no one can see the truth."
I'll go to your sister... Mu Qingkong was furious: "Xia Xin, do you want to fight me to the death?"
Because Zhao Huaizhong was on the side, everyone suppressed their laughter and didn't dare to say a word.
"This Xiaoqin Building is a Kabuki Building. If you bring Mu Qingkong in women's clothes, you are not here to play, but to spoil the game."
Is this a bunch of funny people brought out by Laozi... Zhao Huaizhong pointed out a young man with a popular face in the crowd: "Just him, come in with me."
Baiyao glanced at the man and nodded happily: "Alright, Xin Wu, you can accompany the prince in and keep the prince safe."
After that, he handed Zhao Huaizhong several dark-yellow talisman signs: "This thing is something that Lao Sikong has researched, it is unique to my Ye Yufu, and it can tamper with part of the face with mana within a certain time limit.
Although the prince does not show up often, it is difficult to be recognized by people who are interested in it. "
If you didn't take out this thing earlier, it changed your face, it's not the same for anyone who goes in... Zhao Huaizhong wanted to complain.
