Chapter 741: Twin Cold Swords



"Your Majesty...I was wrong."

He was blind before and couldn't see the man's true face. He didn't expect that the eunuch who revealed his true face was really... He was so choked up that he couldn't utter a word.

"Wrong, what's wrong?"

"I should never have protected anyone, and I'm sure Your Majesty has guessed the outcome."

"Guessed it, ran away?"

After saying this, the eunuch nodded timidly. It seemed that he had run away.

Forget it, just run away.

"Go and arrest him. Since you know him, I'll make an exception and give you a chance. As long as you provide the conditions, I'll let you have a few words with him after I capture him."

Humph, running away is not that easy.

No one can escape from his hands these days.

As for now...

"Arrest these people. There's a dinner party in the palace today, and I don't want to waste time arguing with them. I'll invite those generals over later."

Zhao Xin just gave the order, but Xiao Chenzi beside him remembered it and then sent everyone away. Of course, the craftsmen who worked in a hurry also built his Xingqing Palace extremely perfectly, just like before.

But the vase and other things next to it have changed a bit.

He could clearly feel that his bedroom was brighter than before. He wondered if it was the effect of the star in the sky.

"Your Majesty, the dinner is about to begin."

He actually sat on this chair for such a long time, and the lights outside the house had already come on. The lit candles swaying in the wind stimulated him without exception.

He was actually distracted.

This isn't like him.

"Get going!"

Xiao Chenzi had been waiting outside for a long time. When he saw the sedan chair, he immediately shouted for it to be set up. It was already late autumn, so the covering on it must have been thick.

Afraid of the cold wind coming through.

When they reached the door, a sedan chair nearby stopped and out stepped the Empress, Su Qingyu. The two of them stood together like a match made in heaven, as they entered the hall one after the other.

Naturally, this person also came in full force.

"Your Majesty!"

The dark crowd in the room all knelt down.

"Please stand. You are all talented and capable people from my Great Qin. Of course, many of you are still at this border and cannot be recalled. So I will gather with you."

"good!"

And these generals also arrived.

However, there was a woman sitting among these generals, which naturally made many people embarrassed. However, she herself had no second thoughts, so she was not curious about what others thought.

"Female general, you are indeed a heroine."

"You're too kind, I'm just a military leader. You're no match for a general like you who kills people in a vast territory."

After saying this, my opinion of this person changed a little.

I didn't expect this woman to be so eloquent.

"You are being modest, but could you please tell me your name, General?"

"Just call me General Zhao."

Naturally, although everyone had heard of the fame of the female general, not many people had gone to inquire about her, so naturally they were extremely surprised to see her in such a place.

This female general is so heroic!

Not inferior to the model at all.

But...Zhao?

"Ouch."

This group of people seemed to have thought of something and took two steps back. Isn't the Zhao family just a wealthy family? Apart from the Qin Emperor, who else can have the surname Zhao?

It seems that it is only the emperor's family, and there is indeed a female member in the emperor's side branch. It is said that she is the empress dowager's own daughter and was directly arranged to live in this distant princess's mansion.

With a fortune of millions, you can easily reach the peak of your life.

It has to be said that the queen mother left quite a lot of property to the princess, but why did she insist on becoming a general?

"General Zhao, your sword is probably quite heavy."

Bai Qi, who was standing next to him, suddenly noticed the sword on the man's waist while he was talking to him. It looked heavy, but just from the color of the sword he had just pulled out, he could tell it was a top-grade sword.

Nothing in this palace is not of the highest quality.

"This sword weighs about 130 kilograms."

They were amazed that the woman could actually lift the sword weighing over 130 kilograms. To be honest, this kind of sword is indeed heavy and difficult to wield, which is a big taboo.

Few people would use a heavy, disabling sword on the battlefield.

Otherwise, it’s a woman... humph.

"Do you want to try it?"

Zhao Shuangshuang simply took off the sword, and her seemingly smooth movements showed no awareness of the weight of nearly an adult.

Even now, some people still doubt how this sword could weigh more than 130 kilograms.

As a result, when the general on the opposite side picked it up with a smile... the force in his hand almost made him lose strength.

It was more than 130 pounds, but for the sake of his future image, he had to lift it lightly.

"How about it."

Someone next to him asked.

"It's okay, why don't you try it."

The man raised his hand without thinking much, thinking that it would not be a big deal, but he ended up falling to the ground with the sword in his hand, and the whole person fell to the ground due to the uneven force.

The emperor just glanced at this side briefly, and then began to talk about the hot topics of this issue.

Or rather... the opening remarks.

However, Bai Qi was very curious about this thing at this time and couldn't help but take the sword back.

nice one.

When he slightly pulled out the sword, a cold light flashed in his eyes. He didn't know what kind of magic power this thing had that could make others shudder.

"This sword has a long history, the Twin Cold Sword."

It’s a nice name, but this thing has already recognized its owner, so I’m afraid it won’t be useful if I snatch it away.

"Well, she is indeed a heroine, recognized by the emperor."

He then handed it back, and Zhao Shuangshuang sat next to him with her sword hanging on her shoulder, but she just sat there without touching any of the food on the table.

"dislike?"

A person nearby was puzzled when he saw that Zhao Shuangshuang didn't eat a single bite, while he couldn't stop eating. Although etiquette was observed in the palace, couldn't he just eat slowly and not stop eating?

"I quite like it, but I've already eaten after training, so I can only order a few symbolic chopsticks."

Zhao Shuangshuang sat beside him motionless.

Zhao Xin, who was sitting at the top, didn't move his chopsticks at all. The most he did was take a bite of a vegetarian dish at the beginning. And he only ate the dish after letting the taster take a bite and seeing that it was fine.

Then the two of them looked at each other and smiled when they saw that the food on the table was basically untouched. They were indeed brother and sister, and they had such a tacit understanding.

"Your Majesty, why haven't you eaten?"

Su Qingyu, who was busy serving the dishes, asked softly when she saw that the emperor only took one piece of food with his chopsticks. However, when she saw that the emperor just shook his head slightly, she didn't have much appetite either.

So it’s not much to eat.

She didn't know what the emperor meant so she didn't dare to guess.
