"Young Master, Xianyang is getting more and more lively!”
Dong 'er looked around excitedly.
She hadn't had a chance to stroll around Xianyang for the past few months.
Previously, it was at the Crown Prince's Residence, and then at the Qin Imperial Palace.
Ying Zheng was just watching with a smile, and behind him was the Startling Salamander, who was wearing a light pink dress.
Who would have known that this seemingly weak girl was actually a first-rate expert?
"Sister Dong, it's been hard on you these days.”
Ying Zheng raised his hand and held Dong 'er's hand.
Dong 'er was two or three years older than her, and had no parents. Back in Handan, Lady Zhao felt sorry for Ying Zheng, and she was also afraid that Ying Zheng would be too lonely, so she adopted Dong' er, so that the two of them could take care of each other.
Therefore, Ying Zheng's feelings for Dong 'er were actually very deep.
However, the two of them were too familiar with each other. They were so familiar that they were like family, so there was a lot less formality.
Ying Zheng would not be particularly careful to greet them.
Being suddenly held by Ying Zheng's hand, Dong 'er's entire body tensed up, and a rare blush appeared on her face. They had grown up together, and it was actually very common for them to hold hands, but today was different.
Dong 'er didn't know why it was different, but she felt that today was very different.
"It's not hard for me. The palace maids do everything in the palace. I'm just giving orders.”
Dong 'er lowered her head and pinched the corner of her shirt with her other hand.
Startling Salamander followed behind. Looking at the two of them being intimate, his heart suddenly clenched for some reason.
However, she was already used to being indifferent. She continued to follow behind him, keeping an eye out for any assassins that might appear.
"Sister Dong, let's go. There's a performer over there.”
Ying Zheng suddenly pulled Dong 'er and ran forward.
Among the crowd in front, one person opened his mouth and spat out fire. He looked extremely powerful.
"Cai!"
"Cai!"
The onlookers applauded and shouted.
Even Dong 'er was clapping excitedly, and Ying Zheng was also watching with a smile. Although this seemed very normal to him, it was only natural for him to relax when he came out to play.
"Young Master, do you still remember when we were in Handan, we secretly went out to watch a show and were beaten up by Furen? You were the one who took all the bamboo boards for me, and I cried so hard that I wanted to take it for you, but you wouldn't let me.”
Dong 'er suddenly turned around and looked at Ying Zheng.
"Sister Dong 'er, I'm a boy. Naturally, I have to protect my mother and you.”
Ying Zheng also remembered and said disapprovingly.
"I know that Madam is not willing to hit you, but she is afraid that you will be in danger when you go out. Madam loves you so much. Every time she hits you, Madam's heart will probably bleed. Later, I even secretly saw Madam hitting her own hand with a bamboo board in the room.”
Dong 'er's eyes were filled with reminiscence. Back in Handan, even though they had a hard time and sometimes didn't have enough to eat or wear warm clothes, they could always be together and talk about everything.
"So that's why my mother's hand was swollen the next day. I was still angry with my mother at that time.”
Ying Zheng's eyes flashed. Hearing these words, he was even more moved, and wanted to go back to the palace to see his mother right now.
However, Ying Zheng still suppressed it.
Since his mother did not want him to know, then he would pretend not to know. In the future, he must treat his mother better.
After the three of them toured around, they arrived at the restaurant.
It was already noisy inside, and the fragrance of wine was pure.
Although the food and wine in this era were very simple and crude, people's wisdom was endless. They could always make tricks to make the food more delicious.
"I heard that the current Crown Prince of Qin was born in Handan, Zhao. He was born to a dancer.”
"Not only that, I also heard that this dancer was the concubine of the current Prime Minister Lu Buwei. In the end, she was given to the current King of Qin, who was still a hostage at that time.”
"No wonder the two of them have such a close relationship. It turns out that they are people of the same 'Dao', hehehe!”
"Then the current queen is really capable! The ruler of a country, the prime minister of a country, had the demeanor of Xia Ji in the Spring and Autumn Period!”
As soon as he sat down, Ying Zheng heard a piercing voice coming from the neighboring room.
Ying Zheng's face immediately darkened.
Spring Autumn Summer Princess was not a good name.
Concubine Xia was one of the Four Great Beauties of the Spring and Autumn Period. She was a demon and a lewd woman. She had adultery with many princes and officials, leading to a series of historical events.
According to history, she had become a queen three times and married someone else seven times. A total of nine men had died because of her. Kill three husbands, one monarch and one son, and lose two ministers of a country.
Someone actually wanted to put such a bad name on Lady Zhao.
Dong 'er, who was standing by the side, was also enraged. She was about to speak, but Ying Zheng held her hand down.
Dong 'er looked at Ying Zheng, who had an ugly expression on his face. She wanted to say something but hesitated. In the end, she could only say in a low voice,""Young Master, don't listen to their nonsense. They are deliberately ruining the reputation of the Queen and Young Master.”
"I heard that before Zhao Ji married the current King of Qin, she was already pregnant.”
someone said mysteriously.
"That Ying Zichu isn't a fool. I heard that after he married the King of Qin, Lu Buwei met Zhao Ji in secret at night.”
"It's also possible. I heard that the Crown Prince was born at full term.”
"I heard that on the night of the wedding, Ying Zichu got drunk, and Lu Buwei and his wife started having an affair!”
"Hateful, too hateful!"
Dong 'er was so angry that her little face turned red. Even with her gentle personality, she could not help but feel the urge to kill.
Even Ying Zheng clenched his fists tightly, his eyes glowing with a dark light.
This was the first time he had such a strong killing intent.
"Should we kill them?"
The Startling Salamander said softly.
His words were calm and emotionless.
It was as if killing people was as common as eating and drinking to her.
For some reason, seeing Ying Zheng so furious, the Startling Salamander was also enraged.
Ying Zheng did not say anything. He knew how terrifying rumors could be. It was better to defend the mouth of the people than to defend the river. Killing simply could not stop the rumors.
This way, even if no one said anything, there would still be rumors in private. If the reaction was too intense, it would even make people think that it was true.
However, if they ignored it, rumors would spread all over the world.
Even if it was difficult to shake his position, it was enough to disgust people.
"Get someone to keep an eye on these people. I want to know who's behind this.”
Ying Zheng said coldly with a dark face.
He would not let any of these people off.
However, it was impossible for rumors to spread out suddenly, especially the matter in Handan. How could it suddenly spread to Xianyang? It seemed that it had just appeared.
However, he did not know who was behind this.
Madam Han?
Ying Zheng shook his head. She didn't have such means, neither did she have the guts, and neither did she have the means to be so despicable.
Madam Hua Yang?
If she wanted to, she would have stopped him back then. She would not have done something unnecessary now. This would only increase the hatred and conflict between the two sides.
Lu Buwei?
It was even more impossible. If this matter reached Lu Buwei's ears, he would be the most furious and the one who wanted to figure everything out.
Even though he and Ying Zichu trusted each other, he wasn't sure if these words would cause Ying Zichu to suddenly dislike him if they were to spread.
To him, it was of no benefit at all.
Six Nations? Country of Zhao?
Soon, Ying Zheng had a direction." Startling Salamander, tell Minister Lyu about this. It's time for the net to start working."”
"Understood."
The Startling Salamander lowered its head and said with a cold glint in its eyes.
This time, she was going to personally kill the person he hated.
"Let's go!"
Ying Zheng's good mood was completely ruined.
Dong 'er also knew that Ying Zheng felt terrible.
They knew that these were all rumors and lies, but they could not explain it. They could only let the dirty water splash on them.
Therefore, he felt even more uncomfortable.
Dong 'er gently held Ying Zheng's hand, wanting to give him some warmth. Ying Zheng was stunned for a moment, but he did not resist.
