Chapter 169 Ying Zheng’s excitement! !
Ying Zheng touched the portrait with trembling hands, his eyes revealing a longing that was not that of a king.
Twenty-one years.
Found it.
He finally found it.
He originally thought that his most beloved woman had gone to Zhao State and away from Qin State.
To find her. Ying Zheng went there immediately after conquering Handan, just to find her.
“I didn’t expect that.”
"You have never left Daqin. Shaqiu, what a great Shaqiu County."
"Hahaha."
After missing you.
Ying Zheng couldn't hold back any longer and burst out laughing.
first.
Ying Zheng laughed extremely happily and joyfully.
A portrait.
Ying Zheng was relieved.
A portrait.
Ying Zheng also understood why his father-in-law did not return to Xianyang but chose to travel around.
"father in law."
"It seems that you discovered something in Xianyang, so you followed Zhao Feng to Shaqiu. After that, there must be some hidden secrets, so you didn't return to Xianyang."
"Are you afraid that I will find out? Are you afraid that Afang will be in danger again?"
"I understand what you are thinking."
Thinking of Xia Wuqie and thinking that he just asked Zhao Feng to bring back a letter and then left, Ying Zheng's heart seemed to be as clear as a mirror, and he understood everything.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty."
Looking at Ying Zheng's expression, Dun Ruo bowed immediately.
As a minister for many years, he naturally understood how happy Ying Zheng was at this moment.
"How many people know about Afang's affairs?" Ying Zheng asked in a deep voice.
"A secret agent lurking in the Zhao Mansion in Shaqiu knew about it, but he only drew a portrait and didn't know anything else."
"Loyal and reliable." Dun Ruo replied immediately.
"I don't want this matter to be leaked." Ying Zheng said in a deep voice.
"I understand." Dun Ruo nodded immediately.
"The king."
"Do you want to bring the lady back to Xianyang?" Dun asked weakly and respectfully.
"If she wanted to come back, she would have come back long ago." Ying Zheng sighed.
“This…” Dun Ruo’s face changed.
He is also a smart man, so he naturally thinks it through.
If you want to come back.
He returned now that Ying Zheng was in control of the empire and was no longer the same as he used to be.
"I have to go to the dunes myself."
"Don't let anyone know about this." Ying Zheng said in a deep voice.
"Your Majesty."
"I have something to say but I don't know whether I should say it or not." Dun Ruo said hesitantly.
"Speak." Ying Zheng waved his hand.
"Twenty-one years."
"The official records of her place of origin and everything else are true, and there are no mistakes in the madam's records. Her husband died in Handan, and General Zhao Feng's brother and sister were also recorded in their household register."
"This..." Dun Ruo said a little nervously.
The implication is.
That means Xia Dong'er is already married.
Hearing this.
If it were any other suspicious king, he would definitely be furious at this moment, but Ying Zheng smiled and said with great confidence: "Maybe other women would, but Afang wouldn't."
"Zhao Feng is twenty years old this year, right?" Ying Zheng smiled slightly, with an unprecedented tenderness in his eyes.
"Yes." Dun nodded weakly.
"Twenty-one years, Zhao Feng is twenty years old."
"Doesn't this coincide with the time when Afang left?"
"I don't think Afang will be able to find a man to marry so quickly after leaving Xianyang."
"Gu, believe her."
Ying Zheng had great trust and confidence in his beloved woman with whom he had lived and died countless times.
Think of this.
Thinking of Zhao Feng and his sister.
Ying Zheng was also extremely happy in his heart.
"God has eyes."
"Zhao Feng is my son."
"The Great Qin has its successors."
now.
The smile on Ying Zheng's face did not fade.
No wonder he felt a sense of closeness when he first met Zhao Feng. Even when he was interacting with Zhao Feng, he did not act pretentiously majestic. On the contrary, it was like the interaction between an elder and a younger generation.
Thinking that Zhao Feng was his son, Ying Zheng was extremely excited at this moment.
Although he had many children, even Fusu, who was the most outstanding in the eyes of outsiders, was not in Ying Zheng's eyes, because Fusu was too benevolent and did not have the control of a king. He could not control his ministers, but was instead controlled by his ministers.
Once the empire falls into his hands, the consequences will be disastrous.
After seeing Zhao Feng.
Ying Zheng had the thought more than once that it would be great if Zhao Feng was his son.
Although Zhao Feng only showed his military strength and ability to command troops to the outside world, he never suffered a defeat wherever his troops went.
But Ying Zheng could also see that Zhao Feng was a talented person who could be taught in government affairs.
and.
Ying Zheng saw his own shadow in Zhao Feng, that is, confidence and fearlessness.
This is what a king should have.
And today.
After seeing this portrait.
Ying Zheng got what he wanted.
Zhao Feng is really his son.
In his heart, he didn't even use the word "maybe" to describe it.
Because he firmly believed that his Afang would not look for someone else.
When Dun Ruo heard what Ying Zheng said, he was shocked.
Although he knew best what kind of feelings the king had for Xia Dong'er, who had been away for twenty-one years, if Xia Dong'er had not left, the vacant position of queen would have been hers long ago, and there would be no surprise that as the queen's son, he would definitely be the crown prince.
but.
When Dun Ruo heard Ying Zheng say this in person, he was still surprised.
Because this sentence shows Ying Zheng's attitude.
This is the meaning of the four words "successor monarch".
"My lord, do you need Black Ice Terrace to investigate further?"
"After all, this is about that lady, and more importantly, the king's offspring."
"The royal bloodline cannot be neglected." Dun Ruo said respectfully.
Ying Zheng did not answer, but looked at Dun Ruo and asked: "How long does it take to get to Sha Dun at the fastest speed from now on?"
"Even if we rush, it will still take seven days." Dun Ruo replied respectfully.
"I will arrange the government affairs within the next few days, and then go to Yongcheng to pay a visit to Queen Dowager Huayang." Ying Zheng said in a deep voice.
Dun Ruo nodded immediately: "I understand."
Obviously.
Ying Zheng wanted to go to Shaqiu secretly under the pretext of going to Yongcheng.
At this time!
There was a sound of footsteps outside the hall.
Ying Zheng waved his hand.
Dun Ruo immediately walked towards the back hall.
"Your Majesty."
"Master Chen, the great doctor, Miss Zhao Ying is here." Zhao Gao reported respectfully.
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you." Master Chen immediately bowed.
"Greetings, Your Majesty." Zhao Ying also bowed immediately.
Hear the sound.
Ying Zheng's gaze fell directly on Zhao Ying, and there was a kind of tenderness in his eyes.
"I'm not mistaken."
"Zhao Feng is my son and Zhao Ying is my daughter."
"Afang gave birth to me twins, a boy and a girl." Ying Zheng laughed excitedly in his heart.
now.
Ying Zheng's mood was indescribable.
Even after destroying Han and Zhao, Ying Zheng would not be as happy as he is today.
"Is this king really interested in me?"
"When I left, my brother told me to avoid seeing the king and avoid him if I saw him. I don't want him to come true."
"He's looking at me weirdly."
"I don't like this kind of old man. No, I have to leave quickly."
Being stared at like this by Ying Zheng, Zhao Ying began to feel uneasy.
"Are you so afraid of being alone?"
Seeing Zhao Ying lowering her head with a frightened look on her face, Ying Zheng couldn't help but ask.
"I'm not afraid." Zhao Ying shook her head repeatedly, but in her heart she was thinking, "I'm scared to death, brother, come and save me, this king wants to eat young grass."
"Since you are not afraid, why are you lowering your head?" Ying Zheng asked with a smile.
"I dare not look." Zhao Ying replied immediately.
"Your brother is so brave, why are you so timid?" Ying Zheng asked with a smile.
“This…this…”
Zhao Ying was so nervous that she didn't know how to respond.
Seeing Zhao Ying's embarrassment, Ying Zheng smiled and stopped teasing her. After all, the person in front of him was his daughter.
Then.
Ying Zheng looked at Master Chen and said, "When Zhao Feng left, he told me that the elixir I took was poisonous. I have conducted many tests and it has been proven that what Zhao Feng said was true. The elixir is indeed poisonous."
"I asked you to come today."
"It's just so that you can take my pulse and see if there is any poison in my body." Ying Zheng looked at Master Chen and said.
"The elixir is actually poisonous?"
Master Chen looked shocked, but he did not dare to be negligent.
Just when he came here, he heard that all the alchemists in the Dan Palace had been imprisoned.
As the palace's chief physician, he was naturally well-informed about the news in the palace.
Then Master Chen immediately walked forward and knelt down.
Ying Zheng also stretched out his hand.
Master Chen felt the patient's pulse immediately and calmed down for a moment.
"Although the king's body is weak, it is not too serious. I think the erysipelas is not too deep. As long as you take some medicine to eliminate the erysipelas, the king will recover."
"It seems that it is fortunate that General Zhao Feng reminded us early. If we continue to take it, we will be in great trouble in the future." Master Chen said immediately.
"That's good."
After hearing what Master Chen said, Ying Zheng completely relaxed.
As long as you stop taking so-called elixirs in the future, toxins will no longer accumulate.
"Your Majesty."
"Then I will write some prescriptions for removing the poison and ask the Grand Physician to prepare the medicine." Master Chen said immediately.
"Go ahead."
Ying Zheng nodded.
"Walk."
Master Chen immediately turned around and said to Zhao Ying.
And Zhao Ying naturally turned around immediately.
"etc."
Ying Zheng shouted again.
"What else does the king have to say?" Master Chen immediately asked respectfully.
"Zhao Ying stays." Ying Zheng added.
"What am I staying for?"
Zhao Ying looked at him anxiously.
"I obey your command." Master Chen nodded respectfully.
In his opinion.
The king will not do anything to Zhao Ying at all.
After all, she is Zhao Feng's sister. As long as she doesn't do anything too outrageous, she will not be punished at all.
"You should step down too."
Ying Zheng looked at Zhao Gao again.
"I obey your orders."
Zhao Gao also retreated immediately.
And when he left, he was considerate enough to close the doors of the temple.
In the huge Zhangtai Palace, only Ying Zheng and Zhao Ying were left.
"He's not really going to do anything to me, is he?"
"What can I do?"
"It's over."
"Should I yell?"
At this moment, Zhao Ying looked at Ying Zheng in great panic.
Suddenly everyone left. Zhao Ying was naturally very scared and worried, fearing that the King of Qin in front of her would suddenly explode and do something inappropriate to her.
After all, her brother had reminded her before he left that the king might be interested in her and his eyes looked strange.
Now that I see it, it is really true.
Looking at Zhao Ying like this.
Ying Zheng found it both funny and weird.
"Is I so scary?"
"I don't plan to do anything to you." Ying Zheng said helplessly.
"Why did the king keep me here?" Zhao Ying asked Ying Zheng with fear.
"There's nothing else, I just want to ask about your family situation." Ying Zheng smiled slightly.
“I see.”
When Zhao Ying heard this, she immediately relaxed a lot.
"What does the king want to ask?" Zhao Ying asked.
"You don't have to stand so stiffly, sit down."
Ying Zheng smiled slightly and pointed to the seat beside him.
Zhao Ying nodded and took a seat without any hesitation.
now.
In front of outsiders, Zhao Ying displays a gentle and elegant temperament.
at this point.
This made Ying Zheng even more convinced.
Because at this moment Zhao Ying's behavior was just like the woman he cared about. Dong'er used to be so elegant and gentle.
"Have you ever met your father?"
After watching Zhao Ying sit down, Ying Zheng asked with a smile.
Although she didn't understand why Ying Zheng asked this question, Zhao Ying still shook her head: "No."
"Did your mother raise you all by herself?" Ying Zheng asked again.
"kindness."
Zhao Ying nodded: "Mom raised us all by herself, but there are also many villagers in the village who take care of us."
"Especially Grandpa Wu. The land that our family used to farm was given by Grandpa Wu. Otherwise, we would have starved to death long ago."
Hear this.
Ying Zheng frowned slightly, feeling an indescribable pain in his heart.
He could even think of a picture.
His beloved Afang was left alone with two babies, isolated and helpless, raising them by herself with great difficulty, while farming and raising the children at the same time.
Even Ying Zheng could hardly imagine that kind of hardship.
"Afang, you really suffered."
"One person raised a pair of children."
"I'm really so ashamed of her."
"I failed to protect her in the past, and then she fled so far away while pregnant, and I raised her all by myself afterwards."
“Too tired.”
Ying Zheng felt bitter in his heart.
At this moment, he was really full of guilt.
But after thinking for a moment.
Ying Zheng suddenly thought of something.
"Since your father died in the battle of Handan, why was he not given any land? Why did you have to take other people's land?" Ying Zheng asked immediately.
In just a moment, Ying Zheng found the key point of the matter.
"Will there be land if you die in battle?" Zhao Ying asked ignorantly.
"Since your father died in the battlefield of Handan, it proves that he already possessed a first-class title. With a title, he will be granted good land, which is enough for the family to live on."
"Why does your father have no land?" Ying Zheng asked immediately.
"This woman doesn't know."
"But mother didn't ask." Zhao Ying shook her head.
She was just a girl who grew up in the village, how could she know so much?
As for Zhao Ying, she had no idea what a title was.
Listen to Zhao Ying's answer.
A smile appeared on Ying Zheng's face.
"That's for sure."
"Afang definitely didn't find anyone else..."
