Chapter 544: King Qi was captured? King Qin was happy
Qin State, Xianyang City.
The King of Qin sat at the top and said coldly: "If you have something to say, you will leave the meeting if you have nothing to do!"
The hall was quiet, and several Qin ministers bowed their heads one after another, but none of them dared to speak.
Since the last time Li Mu, the general under Wu Xinjun Zhao Kuo, conquered Xianyang and captured the King of Qin, the character of this King of Qin has undergone great changes.
Not only that, the Qin King's body also began to deteriorate significantly, and he often suffered from various diseases such as wind and cold.
Under various factors, the gentler Qin King disappeared, replaced by an irritable, cold and unpredictable Qin King.
In the past six months, several important officials of the Qin State were dismissed by the King of Qin on the spot and their official positions were removed to the end.
Even the Qin Crown Prince Ying Zichu was furious and scolded several times by the Qin King in public for some trivial matters.
Who dares to find trouble in this situation?
However, what the ministers, including the Crown Prince Ying Zichu, didn't know was that if they didn't speak, the King of Qin was unhappy.
I have spoken. Can’t you say “I have nothing to do” if you have nothing to say “I have nothing to report”?
What does it mean to sit there like dead people and remain silent? Do you not give me face?
The King of Qin suddenly became angry. His eyes wandered around the ministers, and finally locked in the crown prince Ying Zichu.
The King of Qin said coldly: "Zi Chu'er, I heard that you have recently appointed the Zhao girl as the wife of the official?"
The so-called Zhao daughter is of course Zhao Ji who gave birth to Ying Zheng.
Ying Zichu did not dare to be negligent and hurriedly said, "Go back to Father, that's true."
Ying Zichu is a person who values feelings very much and trusts Lu Buwei and Zhao Ji who are with him in times of distress.
Lu Buwei is now the tutor of the crown prince and the second-ranked figure in the crown prince's mansion, besides Ying Zichu. Zhao Ji was able to serve as the chief wife of the crown prince and become the true "Crown Princess".
With a bang, the King of Qin slapped the table and shouted: "It's simply nonsense! The Zhao family is so humble, how can he act as the wife of the Crown Prince of Qin and the future Queen of Qin?"
What is Zhao Ji’s identity?
In fact, it's just a dancer, the kind who picks up guests.
At that time, Lu Buwei came to Handan to do business and had no women around him, so he bought Zhao Ji in the Zhao State brothel and finally gave it to Ying Zichu.
Therefore, Zhao Ji's identity is indeed very humble, and there is no doubt about this.
The King of Qin had actually known about this matter for a long time. After all, of course, the matter of the Prince Zheng can only be determined by the King of Qin and the Queen of Qin. It was not Ying Zichu who would do whatever he wanted.
But the King of Qin was too lazy to care about this before, and today he was in a bad mood, so he took it out as a reason to scold Ying Zichu.
Ying Zichu was also panicked and hurriedly said, "Father, although Zhao was born in a humble family, he has always been loyal to his ministers, and he has been in good order in governing the Prince's Mansion. Please ask your father to understand it."
Where did the King of Qin care about these?
Ying Zichu was scolded on the spot, making Ying Zichu feel bloody and dared not say a word.
After scolding Ying Zichu, the King of Qin actually felt much better, and he said, "Okay, you can immediately depose the status of Zhao, the wife of the official, after you go back, do you understand?"
"ah?"
Ying Zichu was stunned and hurriedly said, "Father, Zhao is the prince's wife, and it is useless to depose the country in a rash manner."
Ying Zichu is really stupid. Father, you will scold people if you want to scold people. Why do you have to divorce my wife?
The King of Qin frowned and his face turned cold: "What, do you have any objections to my will?"
Looking at the cold light in the eyes of King Qin, Ying Zichu didn't dare to speak anymore.
If the King of Qin was dissatisfied with Ying Zichu because of Zhao Ji, the position of this prince might not be able to be maintained.
Looking at Ying Zichu who was silent, the King of Qin felt more and more happy.
The King of Qin heard that many ministers may have felt that the King of Qin is in poor health recently, so they began to show their affection to Ying Zichu quietly, thinking that Ying Zichu should soon take over the throne of Qin.
The King of Qin wanted to let everyone know through today's suppression - I am the real master of Qin and the prince?
That was just a child whom I could mercy! At this moment, a sudden sound of footsteps rang out.
The eunuch of Qin State walked in and said respectfully: "King, the war report of Qi State just came!"
The King of Qin frowned and said, "Please bring it up and show it to me."
The King of Qin actually didn't care much about this. After all, Linzi is more than 2,000 miles away from Xianyang, which is very, very far away.
The King of Qin took the battle report and took it apart, and suddenly was stunned.
It clearly stated: "Ten days ago, Wu Xinjun Zhao Kuo captured Linzi, captured King Tian Jian of Qi, Hou Sheng of Qi, Grand Marshal Kuangliang of Qi and others..." The King of Qin took a deep breath, took a closer look, and confirmed that he had read it correctly.
King Qi... was captured?
A strange thought suddenly emerged from the mind of the King of Qin: "In other words, I am not the only prince captured by Wu Xinjun?"
The King of Qin suddenly felt better.
It is really a shame that the King of Qin was captured alone.
But...what if two kings were captured?
Does this mean... In fact, the King of Qin is not that bad?
A smile suddenly emerged from the corner of the Qin King's mouth.
Yes, it must be like this.
I am not bad, but I just fell into Zhao Kuo's trick.
Didn’t the King of Qi also fall into Zhao Kuo’s treacherous plan? The Qin Dynasty was the second most powerful country in the world before, and the Qi State was the second most powerful country in the world now.
This shows that it is not a problem with Daqin and idiots, and Qi State is also not good either.
As the King of Qin thought about it, the smile on the corner of his mouth became stronger and stronger.
I am no longer the only one who was ridiculed by everyone. From now on, King Qi will join this ranks! In an instant, the shadow of being captured in King Qin dissipated halfway.
This is how people are. If you are alone, you really want to find a hole to get into it.
But if you have a brother in trouble, you will feel comfortable all of a sudden and not uncomfortable.
At this moment, the King of Qin even hoped that Zhao Kuo could capture more princes in the future, such as Yan, Chu, Han, Wei, and all of them were captured! When the King of Qin thought of this, he finally couldn't help laughing.
Others in the hall, including Ying Zichu, were confused. I don’t know why the King of Qin became so happy after seeing this battle report.
The King of Qin came to his senses, coughed, and said to Ying Zichu lightly: "Forget it, if Zhao can reform and be a good person in the future, I will no longer pursue it. Let him continue to sit in the position of the Prince's Madam."
...After a long time, Ying Zichu, who returned to the prince's mansion, found Lu Buwei and Zhao Ji, and said with a laugh and cry: "Do you know?
Today, because of Wu Xinjun Zhao Kuo, your wife, Zhao Ji, was able to be preserved."
After hearing this, Lu Buwei and Zhao Ji were stunned.
The King of Qin's anger was aborted and became happy because of the good news from Wu Xinjun, and then revoked the order that he wanted to pursue Zhao Ji?
Wu Xinjun, is this OK?
