"Meng Langwei, has the king returned?”
Outside Zhangtai Palace, Zhao Gao looked at Meng Tian and spoke kindly.
At this moment, it was already close to the fourth watch! The sky was dark and there was not a single ray of light. The huge palace was quiet, and only the guards on duty were on duty.
All along, as the driver and bridle of the King of Qin, Zhao Gao had always been the closest to Ying Zheng, and the person who had absolute control over Ying Zheng's whereabouts.
But tonight, Qin Wang's whereabouts had left his control, making him somewhat uneasy.
Of course, he would not show this emotion on his face. He would only pretend to ask Lang Wei casually to find out the whereabouts of the King of Qin.
"I'm back."
Meng Tian said seriously.
"Oh?" Zhao Gao's eyes lit up and he quickly asked," Where?”
Meng Tian glanced at him.
"Lord Zhongche Prefecture Magistrate, do you think I would know?”he asked.
Zhao Gao was speechless.
After being rejected by Meng Tian, Zhao Gao returned to his residence with a gloomy face.
That uneasiness lingered for a long time, causing him to be completely sleepless tonight.
……
In the secret hall of the royal palace, on the black ice platform.
Ying Zheng sat on the soft couch, his expression uncertain.
This place was the secret agency of the Qin State. It was established by the great strategist, Zhang Yi. Its functions included investigation, assassination, bribery, spreading fishing vessels, and so on. It was a hidden sword in the sleeves of the King of Qin!
In layman's terms, it was equivalent to the Jinyiwei of the future!
At this moment, a man in a black robe was kneeling on one knee in front of Ying Zheng with a respectful expression.
"Zhang Han, do you still remember what happened to Fang?”
Ying Zheng said slowly.
The secret agent kneeling on the ground was Zhang Han!
After Ying Zheng's death, he was the last famous general of the Great Qin Empire!
And at this moment, he was the first commandant of the Black Ice Platform, the most trusted subject of Ying Zheng!
When Zhang Han heard Qin Wang's casual words, he was so frightened that his entire body trembled.
The matter of Afang was definitely the most helpless and regretful thing for the king. The most painful thing!
Now that he mentioned it again…what did His Majesty want?
Could it be that he was going to start a massacre?
For a moment, Zhang Han's heart raced, and cold sweat began to drip down his forehead.
"I remember, this official…will never dare to forget!”
Zhang Han said in a deep voice, giving a response that he thought was appropriate.
"Ah Fang…"
Ying Zheng tapped his fingers lightly on the table, sighed, and said,
" Broken woman, silly woman!"
"Back then, my foundation was not stable and I could not marry her, but it was not to the extent that we could not fall in love. At least, our hearts were connected.”
"If she is willing to wait, when I truly take power, why can't I give her a title? Why can't I give her a happy ending?”
"Tell me, why did she commit suicide? Why did you abandon me!"
Zhang Han was speechless.
This was a free proposition!
How could he, a subject, discuss the woman that the King of Qin loved the most?
"…Miss Afang, perhaps she is worried that Your Majesty will be criticized by the court and the people, and will be under pressure, so…"
Zhang Han said carefully,
"Therefore, I used my own method to reduce the burden on His Majesty.”
Afang, the girl that Ying Zheng had fallen in love with when he was a hostage in the State of Zhao, could be said to be a true childhood sweetheart.
For this woman, Ying Zheng, his first love, had poured all his feelings into her!
However, it seemed that the heavens wanted him to be a loner. After he succeeded to the throne, Ying Zheng intended to make Afang his concubine. However, because of Afang's identity as a citizen of Zhao, all the civil and military officials in the court strongly opposed it. Some people even wrote articles to scold Afang for being a vixen!
At that time, Ying Zheng was still young, so he could only compromise with the ministers and put aside the matter of choosing a concubine.
As for Ah Fang, because he could not bear the humiliation, or because he did not want to be a burden to Ying Zheng, he chose to commit suicide!
The beauty's death had become the greatest regret and pain in Ying Zheng's heart!
Even now, when he thought about it, he still sighed.
In the secret room, one knelt and the other sat. The candlelight flickered, and Zhang Han's mind swayed.
"There's something I need you to do."
Ying Zheng said slowly.
"Your Majesty, please instruct me! I will do my best!" Zhang Han heaved a sigh of relief and said firmly.
Fortunately, he only needed to do things and not really talk to him.
As a secret agent, if the king intentionally had a heart-to-heart talk with him, he would definitely not have a good ending in the future! This was almost the norm.
The reason is simple-you know too much.
Therefore, Zhang Han didn't want to know about Qin Wang's private affairs, and he didn't want to discuss Qin Wang's private affairs!
He just wanted to be the hidden sharp blade and hit wherever he pointed!!
"Fang gave birth to a son for me.”
Ying Zheng's eyes were deep as he said slowly,
"At that time, Afang had just given birth and the child was still in swaddling clothes. Although I didn't see him, I casually named him Qin Feng.”
"After she committed suicide, the child disappeared.”
"I know her well. She would never take her child and commit suicide. She would never have the heart to kill my descendants!”
"That child might still be alive! Perhaps…it's in Xianyang!"
"Find him! Find that child for me! You must find it!"
Before he finished his words, Ying Zheng had already clenched his fists tightly, and his gaze was incomparably sharp!
Zhang Han felt that gaze filled with pressure. He didn't have time to be shocked or think too much. He immediately bowed and kowtowed.
"Wei!"
"Zhang Han will definitely do his best to find Young Master's whereabouts for His Majesty!”
Ying Zheng waved his hand, and Zhang Han left.
"Qin Feng, Qin Feng…"
Ying Zheng leaned against the soft couch and said to himself,
"Is there really such a coincidence in this world?”
At this moment, he was filled with thoughts.
He recalled his youth, his relationship with the mistress, and his ignorant yet passionate feelings.
To tell the truth, Ying Zheng did not like any woman. He felt that no woman was qualified to be his queen!
Except for Fang!
His first love.
Fang's decision to commit suicide caught him off guard, causing him to fall into an abyss of pain for a very long time!
It was also from that moment that his heart became cold and hard, and his killing intent towards Lu Buwei and the other ministers reached its peak!
In the end, the first thing he did when he gained absolute power was to exile Lu Buwei and wash the royal court with blood!
He had gotten his revenge, but his regrets were eternal.
This was a dusty past that Ying Zheng did not want to remember, but because he heard the name 'Qin Feng', it opened up again.
He suddenly remembered that he and Fang actually had a son!
A real eldest son that he had never met before!
All of a sudden, his entire body tensed up. He felt that the most important thing in this world was to find his eldest son. Destroying the six countries and unifying the world was not as important as this!
"I must find…"
Ying Zheng leaned against the couch, closed his eyes slightly, and fell asleep.
He was too tired.
……
The next morning.
Clang!
Ying Zheng was awakened by the ringing of a bell.
"Ying Zheng, have you forgotten the great wish of the previous emperors of the Qin State to unify the world?”
An old and heavy voice came into Ying Zheng's ears!
"Ying Zheng, I dare not forget even for a moment!"
The king of Qin straightened his body reflexively and ordered solemnly.
A white-bearded old man looked at Ying Zheng, nodded slightly, and left.
Such a scene had become the daily morning lesson of the successive kings of Qin after the reform!
His goal was to strengthen the Regional King's will and make him constantly think about…
East, east! Destroy the six countries and unify the world!
And just as he had said, Ying Zheng did not dare to forget the great cause of the Qin Kingdom's unification of the world!
