"I choose him!"
"Qin Mu!"
Ying Zichu pointed at Qin Mu. His voice was hoarse and carried a sense of choice as his body trembled slightly.
"Eh?" Lord Pingyuan furrowed his brows and looked at Ying Zichu with a strange expression."I heard that Qin Mu isn't your biological son, but someone you adopted in Handan City.”
"Strange, strange. You abandoned your own son and chose an adopted son who is not related by blood?”
Lord Ping Yuan's expression was bewildered and uncertain. He started to examine Qin Mu carefully, wanting to see what was special about him.
When Lady Zhao heard that Ying Zichu wanted to choose Qin Mu, her gaze was incomparably complicated. She wanted to say something, but she didn't know how to say it.
"Will Lord Pingyuan keep his word?" Ying Zichu's eyes were red as he said in a deep voice.
"Hahaha, I, Lord Pingyuan, am naturally not a treacherous person. Let that kid go!”Lord Pingyuan said with a smile.
The soldier standing behind Qin Mu put away his sword and said coldly,""Let's go."
Qin Mu didn't move. He turned to look at Lady Zhao and Little Ying Zheng and said something that shocked everyone present.
"Father, choose mother!" Qin Mu stared at Ying Zichu and said.
Lord Pingyuan, Lord of Western Zhou, Lord of Chun Shen, and even Ying Mo looked at Qin Mu in shock.
"Young Master Qin, your adopted son is quite good!”Lord Pingyuan said.
Ying Zichu glared at Qin Mu and berated,""Mu 'er, come over. Your father will think of a way to save your mother and Zheng' er.”
The reason why he chose Qin Mu was because of his innate constitution. In addition, the old king of Qin had exhorted Ying Zichu to bring Qin Mu back to the State of Qin no matter what.
However, Qin Mu shook his head." I'm a man, and I'm a man of Great Qin. I can endure all kinds of misery. But mother is different. Mother's body is weak…"
"Shut up! I've already decided. Come over now!”Ying Zichu interrupted. He had to bring Qin Mu back to Qin.
Even if he had to abandon his wife and children again and become a heartless husband and father again!
With tears in her eyes, Mistress Zhao reached out to caress Qin Mu's face and said softly,""Be good, Mu 'er. Listen to your father and return to Qin. Mother and Zheng' er will be fine!”
"No, this child will never return to Qin alone!”Qin Mu said resolutely. He couldn't abandon Lady Zhao and Little Ying Zheng in Handan, especially Little Ying Zheng.
Whether it was for his ambition or for the so-called kinship, Qin Mu would never return to Qin alone.
"Mother, listen to me. Follow father back to Qin. I will protect my brother!”As Qin Mu spoke, he said to Little Ying Zheng beside him,""You and I are both men of Great Qin. Filial piety comes first, and life and death come second.”
Little Ying Zheng nodded and said to Lady Zhao,""Mother, I will protect myself with brother!”
"My son!" Lady Zhao hugged Qin Mu and Little Ying Zheng, crying her eyes out. She was a weak and selfish woman.
But in front of Qin Mu and Little Ying Zheng, she was a qualified mother.
After Ying Zichu had abandoned them, Lady Zhao understood that the only people she could rely on were Qin Mu and Little Ying Zheng.
This was her life!
Zhao Ji wiped away the tears on her face. The cowardice in her eyes instantly disappeared and was replaced by a strong motherly love.
"Mother won't go back. Mother will stay by Mu 'er and Zheng' er's side and shelter you from the wind and rain.”
"If mother leaves just like that, she won't be able to rest in peace for the rest of her life. Even if she dies, mother won't leave you!”
Even Lord Pingyuan, Lord of Western Zhou, and Lord Chun Shenjun were moved by this scene.
Ying Zichu's eyes were moist, and his heart was filled with helplessness and guilt. At the same time, a thirst for power rose up in his heart, an unprecedented thirst!
If he was the Crown Prince, or even the King of Qin, this scene would never have happened.
In the end, Ying Zichu was still too weak. He was just the son of the Crown Prince, and he couldn't control his own fate. He couldn't even protect his wife and children.
"What a touching scene. Young Master Qin, have you chosen?”Chun Shenjun sneered.
Ying Zichu clenched his fists tightly, and cracking sounds could be heard.
"Young Master, you should go back. I won't be like you, abandoning Mu 'er and Zheng' er. I am their mother, and anyone who wants to harm them must step over my dead body!”Zhao Ji said firmly.
" Madam…" Ying Zichu looked pained.
"It seems that Young Master Qin is not prepared to choose. In that case, your wife and children will temporarily stay in our country of Zhao.”The corners of Lord Pingyuan's mouth curled up slightly.
Then, he said,"If your Qin State attacks my Zhao State again, then I can only sacrifice your wife and children to the flag."”
Ying Zichu suddenly raised his head and stared at Lord Pingyuan."Zhao Sheng, if my wife and children are harmed in Handan, I, Ying Zichu, swear that I will lead an army to destroy your country!”
…………
Under the blue sky and white clouds, the Zhao army brought the prison carriage that imprisoned Qin Mu and his son to the State of Zhao.
In the prison carriage, Lady Zhao hugged Qin Mu and Little Ying Zheng tightly and leaned against the bars in silence.
Mu 'er, do you regret it?" Lady Zhao looked at Qin Mu in her arms and asked softly.
Qin Mu raised his head to look at Lady Zhao and said with a smile,""Do you regret it, Mother?"
"Mother doesn't regret it. Without you by her side, even if Mother returns to the State of Qin, she won't be happy and will still miss you day and night.”Zhao Ji said.
"That child is the same. He will never regret it!”
"Mu 'er, why are you doing this?”Lady Zhao sighed and looked at the soldiers around her, saying in a low voice,""You have an innate constitution. If you can return to the State of Qin, you will definitely be put in an important position by the King of Qin.”
Qin Mu shook his head. Even if I, Qin Mu, don't return to the State of Qin, I will still grow!”
"Mother, trust me. One day, I will bring you and brother back to Qin!”
Qin Mu's face was filled with determination.
"Zheng 'er also believes in big brother!" Little Ying Zheng echoed.
At this moment, a shout came from afar.
"Madam!"
Qin Mu and the other two immediately looked in the direction of the voice.
They saw Ying Zichu riding his horse over and waving at Qin Mu and the other two while shouting,""Madam, I will definitely take you back to Xianyang!”
When Lady Zhao saw Ying Zichu, her eyes turned red, but she immediately hugged Qin Mu and Little Ying Zheng, her back facing Ying Zichu.
In the distance, Ying Zichu was sitting on the back of a horse with tears on his face. His voice was trembling as he said,"I miss you all day and night.”
"The king will definitely let me pick you up!”
Qin Mu looked at the sobbing Zhao Ji and said in a low voice,""Mother, don't blame Father. He has his own difficulties.”
When Zhao Sheng, Lord of Pingyuan, saw Ying Zichu, he took out a bow and arrow and shot a sword in front of Ying Zichu, warning him not to come any closer.
Ying Zichu could only stop. His eyes were still fixed on Qin Mu and the other two in the prison carriage, watching them disappear from his sight.
"Power! I need power! I must become the King of Qin!" Ying Zichu shouted out in a hoarse voice, his voice resounding through the entire world.
………
In the spring of 256 B.C., the alliance army led by the king of Western Zhou failed to attack Qin. The Qin army was forced to surrender the 36 cities and 30,000 people of Wangji to Qin.
