"Hah!"
Hearing her son's determination, Lady Zhao felt a little warm. She chuckled and wiped her tears." Mother, you've lost your composure.”
"I told you that from now on, I will protect Mother, so you must believe me.”
"Mother, you have to believe me. I won't harm you, and I won't deliberately hide anything from you. Mother, you won't lie to Zheng 'er, hide from him, or hurt him, right?”
"Of course, why would mother hurt Zheng 'er?”
"Mother dotes on Zheng 'er!”
Zhao Ji muttered softly.
Although his son was still young, he had become Lady Zhao's only reliance at this moment. Lady Zhao had even forgotten about Ying Zheng's age.
After all these crying and crying, as well as Ying Zheng's warm comfort, Lady Zhao no longer wanted to know what the people outside were saying. She only wanted to enjoy this rare peace.
"Mother only needs to prepare for her birthday now. I've already gotten the Startling Salamander to deal with those Zhao thieves who spread rumors. Father's actions today have also completely destroyed all the rumors.”
In her son's arms, she was very relaxed and happy.
Outside the bedchamber, Dong 'er finally heaved a sigh of relief when she heard the cries and noise inside. She patted her slightly heaving chest and said," Fortunately, Young Master is here. I'm afraid only Young Master can comfort Madam."”
That night, Ying Zheng stayed in Zhiyang Palace.
……
"It seems that there is nothing we can use regarding the identities of Lady Zhao and Ying Zheng.”
"Now, if anyone dares to say anything about this, I'm afraid that before the Qin army can come and capture them, they will be captured by the nearby Qin people!”
Inside a seemingly deserted courtyard in Xianyang City.
Some people gathered.
"I've already checked during the day. The merchants from the State of Zhao who spread the news have all been killed!”
"Since this trick is useless, then let's fight Qin openly!”
"Ying Zichu's ascension to the throne is precisely the time when he needs to make contributions. Faced with the Qin Country's army, I hope that Milords can make the right choice.”
"This isn't something we should be concerned about. I heard that Lu Buwei has been conferred the title of Marquis Wenxin and is currently recruiting henchmen.”
A middle-aged man dressed in a black luxurious robe knelt at the head of the table and said coldly.
"Understood!"
The people on both sides cupped their fists and lowered their heads at the same time.
At the same time, the people of the other countries in the Qin country were also making various arrangements.
"I didn't expect Ying Zhu to die so early, and Ying Zheng to become the Crown Prince so quickly.”
"If I had known this would happen, I would have killed him the last time he went to Yong City, no matter how great the price was!”
Someone slammed the table and said unwillingly.
"Sigh, we have indeed missed a good opportunity. When this child first arrived at the Qin palace, he made a declaration to destroy the six countries. If this child succeeds the throne in the future, he will be a disaster.”
"Now that he's in Xianyang, killing him is as difficult as ascending to the heavens.”
"Moreover, in the last incident, our spies and assassins in the Qin country were also eliminated. It will take a lot of time to recover.”
Xianyang City was the capital of Qin State. Even if the people of the six states had planted many spies here, most of them were just to gather information.
There were not many experts.
It was impossible to assassinate the Qin Crown Prince.
" This time, the plan of the people of the State of Zhao was to shake the State of Qin, causing internal strife in the harem, shaking the position of this child, sowing discord between the King of Qin and the Minister of Qin, and allowing the Chu faction of Empress Dowager Huayang to seize power. Unexpectedly, Ying Zichu took the opportunity to completely declare Ying Zheng's position, and even strengthened the cohesion of the people of Qin.”
"The Qin people are crafty. We can only wait for a good opportunity.”
Everyone felt regretful.
Meanwhile, Ying Zheng and Lady Zhao, who were in the center of the whirlpool, had gone to bed early.
A few days later.
Ying Zheng read through the 'Peaceful Divine Recipes' and the 'Compendium of Materia Medica' and specially chose from them to prepare a special gift for his mother.
……
A month later.
Xingle Palace was filled with red makeup, and it was very festive.
"Queen, this is nice. This was sent by the Crown Prince the day before yesterday.”
Dong 'er took out a red dress from the wooden box and said excitedly.
"Oh? Do you like it?"
Lady Zhao's eyes lit up as she stared at the clothes in Dong 'er's hands.
"The Crown Prince knows that the Queen likes red clothes, so he has been paying attention to the most popular styles at the moment. He even personally got someone to make changes.”
"What is it? Zheng 'er even made some changes? He knows about this?"
Zhao Ji's eyes widened even more, and she could not hide the joy on her face.
His hands had already gently taken the clothes from Dong 'er's hands, and he praised happily,"I've never seen it before. Zheng 'er knows so much.”
During this period of time, Ying Zheng had also started to go back to school. Apart from that, he had also acquired a piece of land, which he had circled around and guarded by elite warriors, so that no one knew what Ying Zheng was doing inside.
However, Ying Zichu and Lady Zhao did not bother about it when they saw that Ying Zheng did not delay his studies.
Moreover, Ying Zheng had gone deep into the farmland and modified the straight shaft plow, which was beneficial to the Qin country.
Ever since Ying Zichu brought Ying Zheng to patrol Xianyang, the position of Crown Prince Ying Zheng had become more and more stable.
No one could stop Ying Zheng from doing anything.
……
"Startling Salamander, your work and rest are really regular.”
Ying Zheng stood at the door, looking at the cold light shining down, and praised sincerely.
His Inner Qi was still at the third-rate realm, but it had already reached the later stage.
The Startling Salamander, on the other hand, relied entirely on itself.
Even though he had already reached the first-rate realm, he still cultivated diligently every day. No wonder he had such strength at such a young age.
However, he was not like that. He remained at the third-rate realm.
After all, a person's energy was limited. After he learned knowledge, he still had to read ancient books to understand this world more deeply.
Or he could train his guards, which had now expanded to 2,000 elite soldiers.
Thus, the time spent on cultivation was reduced.
However, this was not the main reason.
For some unknown reason, he seemed to have encountered a bottleneck and did not improve at all despite taking pills recently.
Moreover, this cultivation technique felt a little strange.
"Should I go and ask the Yin-Yang School?”
"If that's the case, wouldn't all of my secrets be exposed to the Yin-Yang School, including my weaknesses?”
Ying Zheng rubbed his chin, his small face serious and deep in thought.
The Yin-Yang School was not a good person.
In essence, they were not much different from merchants. They were also opportunistic.
They entered the State of Qin with their own goals.
It wasn't for the sake of the State of Qin, to serve him.
Therefore, he had to be wary of the Yin-Yang School.
