Chapter 17 Ying Zheng: I have another son?

"Yes, sir!"

Yanri bowed and retreated.

Shuhe County is not big, and in ancient times, there were not many mobile populations, so it was not too difficult to find out who had just left.

While Luowang and the Shadow Guards were searching for the God of War, Ying Zheng in the Golden Root Car suddenly said, "This Shuhe County is great!"

The streets are clean and the houses are neat.

It is no worse than Xianyang.

Especially the people here seem to have a good life.

There wasn't a single homeless beggar to be seen.

You have to know that he came very urgently and suddenly this time, and he received a report from Zhang Han's secret guard that the county magistrate here did not drive away the refugees and beggars before he came, and was pretending to do so.

It can be said that what he saw was the original appearance of Shuhe County.

"It is all thanks to your majesty's wisdom. I am ashamed to accept this."

Upon hearing this, Chen Yu, the trembling Shuhe County Magistrate who was serving beside him, flushed with excitement.

Was able to gain the praise of Emperor Qin Shi Huang Ying Zheng.

What an honor it is.

With Ying Zheng's words, his future is bright.

certainly.

Shuhe County’s current status is closely related to another person.

Chen Yu did not dare to hide it and said quickly: "Your Majesty, Shuhe County was not originally rich. It is actually thanks to one person that it can be what it is today."

"Oh? Who?"

Ying Zheng was a little curious. Could it be that there was such a great talent in this small Shuhe County?

"Your Majesty, this man's name is Zhao Wu!"

Chen Yu said quickly: "He was born in a commoner family, with only one mother. He is 22 years old this year, but he has been very smart since he was a child and has many wonderful ideas."

"For example, he used wild fruits that no one wanted to make delicious fruit wine, which became famous far and wide. Not only did he become the richest businessman in Shuhe County, but he also helped improve the lives of the people in Shuhe County."

"There are also stir-fry dishes, hot pot and so on."

Ying Zheng's eyes moved slightly, and he said calmly: "I have tasted this fruit wine, it is indeed good, fragrant and delicious, with an endless aftertaste."

"Stir-frying and hot pot are also unique. I like them very much. I didn't expect the inventor is here. It's interesting!"

"Summon him to the throne."

"His Majesty……"

Chen Yu hesitated to speak, his eyes full of confusion.

"Just say what you want to say. What's the point of being so hesitant?"

Ying Zheng scolded.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me!"

Chen Yu was startled and said quickly: "Your Majesty, although Zhao Wu has some wonderful ideas, he is not enterprising and does not use his intelligence in the right way. He spends all day in the entertainment industry."

"He invented fruit wine, stir-fry, and hot pot because he felt that the previous food and drinks were not good, and he invented them to satisfy his own appetite."

He saw that Ying Zheng was interested in Zhao Wu.

But Zhao Wuzhen was not a great talent.

Just a lascivious and lazy guy.

He was afraid that Ying Zheng would be disappointed when he met Empress Wu of Zhao and would accuse him of deceiving the emperor? So.

He had to give Ying Zheng a reminder and make it clear what kind of person Zhao Wu was.

"By the way, Your Majesty, the largest house in front is where Zhao Wu lives. Zhao Wu plays outside most of the time, but his mother is usually at home."

Chen Yu pointed to a large house in front of him. In the courtyard was a three-story attic. In front of the third-floor window of the attic, there happened to be a stunning woman who looked to be in her twenties.

The woman seemed a little curious. She stood in front of the window and looked at Ying Zheng's carriage with her beautiful eyes.

Following Chen Yu's instructions, Ying Zheng looked through the curtain of the carriage and immediately saw the beautiful woman looking out from the attic.

In an instant.

Ying Zheng seemed to have been electrocuted. His whole body trembled, his mind went blank, and his eyes were fixed on the beautiful figure in the attic.

"What's wrong with your majesty? Is he attracted to Zhao Wu's mother?"

Seeing Ying Zheng staring at him in a daze, Chen Yu quickly said, "Your Majesty, that is Zhao Wu's mother, Yufang. She is thirty-six years old this year. I don't know how she maintains herself. She doesn't look old at all."

"Yufang? Yufang? Afang..."

Ying Zheng held Tianwen tightly in his hand and ignored Chen Yu, his heart was in turmoil.

nervous.

expect.

excited.

perturbed.

"Afang! It must be Afang! I can't be wrong. After all these years, she hasn't changed at all!"

Ying Zheng was extremely excited, but when he thought of Zhao Wu, his heart suddenly sank.

A heart that goes up and down.

"How old do you think Zhao Wu is?"

Ying Zheng's eyes suddenly turned to Chen Yu, and his voice trembled a little.

Under Ying Zheng's gaze, Chen Yu felt as if the world was spinning around him. An overwhelming and terrifying pressure was sweeping over him from all directions, suffocating him as if he were about to be suffocated.

Plop.

Chen Yu knelt on the ground, prostrating himself, unable to exert any strength at all.

"How old do you think Zhao Wu is?"

Ying Zheng frowned and asked again.

Chen Yu shuddered all over, his mind went blank, and he instinctively said, "Your Majesty, Zhao Wu is twenty-two years old this year!"

He completely forgot to think at this moment.

The majesty and aura of the First Emperor were so terrifying.

He was just a small county magistrate, and it was a blessing from the God of War that he could meet the First Emperor.

"Who are Zhao Wu's family members? Where is his father? Tell me everything about him and his mother in detail. If there is anything untrue, I will kill you without mercy!"

Ying Zheng's deep voice frightened Chen Yu so much that his heart trembled and his liver and gallbladder nearly peed.

"Yes, I will never dare to deceive Your Majesty!"

Chen Yu was terrified and had no time to think about why Ying Zheng asked these questions. He quickly said:

"Your Majesty, Yufang came to Shuhe County from outside 22 years ago. She must have been pregnant for several months at that time, because she gave birth to Zhao Wu six months later."

Please...you...collect_6Ⅰ9ⅠBookⅠBar (Six\\\Nine\\\Book\\\Bar!)

"As for Zhao Wu's father, we have never seen him."

"And Zhao Wu's family only has maids, no slaves. Zhao Wu is the only man in the entire mansion. I don't even know who Zhao Wu's father is!"

…

After hearing this, Ying Zheng finally felt relieved.

Ying Zheng never had a queen in these years.

Because there is always a woman in his heart - Xia Yufang.

He had known Xia Yufang when he was in Zhao State. She had accompanied him through his most difficult times and was also the woman he loved the most.

Twenty-two years ago, he wanted to make Xia Yufang the queen, but was opposed by Lu Buwei and civil and military officials.

At that time, Lu Buwei was in power and had tremendous power.

In order to avoid making things difficult for him, Xia Yufang committed suicide by jumping off a cliff.

then.

He sent people to look for it, but found nothing.

Although nothing was found, it means that Xia Yufang is very likely not dead.

so.

He has been sending people to look for it over the years.

Unfortunately, it still hasn't been found.

God have mercy on us.

Unexpectedly, he met Xia Yufang here.

He didn't know why Xia Yufang's appearance hadn't changed after more than 20 years, but he believed that he had definitely not recognized the wrong person.

And the time Chen Yu said also matched.

If everything is true.

Xia Yufang also gave birth to a son for him.

Thinking of this, Ying Zheng couldn't help but get excited.

"Zhang Han, go check it out immediately. Remember not to let anyone know and don't disturb them."

Ying Zheng ordered.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I understand."

Zhang Han took the order and his figure instantly disappeared in the carriage.

His shadow secret guards have also been ordered to search for Xia Yufang in recent years.

therefore.

Zhang Han knew very well what to do.

In fact, Zhang Han recognized Xia Yufang when he saw her for the first time.

Just a little uncertain.

After all, Xia Yufang looks too young.

"What happened today must not be leaked. Violators will be severely punished."

Ying Zheng's majestic gaze swept across Chen Yu, and his voice, like a blue dragon, rang out.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I know nothing and heard nothing!"

Chen Yu was terrified and made the promise quickly.

"Afang, Zhao Wu..."

Ying Zheng's eyes were long and varied, with all kinds of emotions churning in his heart.

…

Shuhe County, Luowang temporary headquarters,

"Sir, I have discovered something special!"

Yanri came hurriedly with an assassin and reported to Zhao Gao.

"Are there any traces of the God of War?"

Zhao Gao's eyes lit up and he felt expectant.

"Sir, it's not the God of War, it's Xia Yufang."

Yanri said.
