"Zheng 'er, is power really that important?”
Zhao Ji was also slightly tipsy and suddenly asked on the way back.
His words were filled with confusion and confusion.
She was just an ordinary woman. She had never thought that she would become the queen of a country. She just wanted to find someone she liked and marry him peacefully.
I don't have to worry about food and drink all my life.
However, he did not expect things to be so unpredictable.
After a few years of happiness, her husband fled alone with his cronies, leaving the orphans and widows to survive in Handan, which was full of enemies.
Later on, Western Zhou joined forces with the five countries to attack Qin and wanted Qin to return the lost land. The one who came to negotiate was Ying Zichu.
She and Ying Zheng were also used as bargaining chips, wanting to exchange for the land. Unfortunately, for the sake of the great cause, Ying Zichu could only refuse, abandoning both mother and son once again.
Abandoned twice in a row, even if Zhao Ji had feelings for Ying Zichu, they would become thin.
Fortunately, his family managed to save his life, but in order to hide his identity, he could only hide everywhere.
After going through all kinds of hardships to safely bring the child up and return to the State of Qin, the happy days had finally arrived.
But now, compared to the great cause, she was still the woman who could be abandoned at will.
She had thought that today was just to celebrate her birthday, but she did not expect there to be another reason. This made Zhao Ji unhappy.
Hearing his mother's question, Ying Zheng was silent for a moment, then said,""Power is very important, because only with power can I protect my mother. I won't let what happened in Handan happen again.”
Hearing this, Lady Zhao felt warmth in her heart. However, she could not help but ask,"If one day I have to choose between power and my mother, will Zheng 'er also choose power?”
Ying Zheng stopped and raised his head, looking at Lady Zhao with his dark eyes." Why do you say that, Mother?”
"Why should I make a choice? Is there any conflict?"
"No, I'm just joking."
Zhao Ji was stunned for a moment before she forced a smile and said casually.
"Oh."
Ying Zheng nodded. After walking for a while, he suddenly asked,""If Mother meets another man in the future and has a child, will you kill me for that child?”
Lady Zhao suddenly stopped. She suddenly thought of what Ying Zheng had said on the way to Xianyang, and thought that Ying Zheng had misunderstood something. She turned around abruptly and shouted angrily,""Zheng 'er, what nonsense are you talking about? Mother only has one man, your father.”
Ying Zheng lowered his eyelids slightly and said in a low voice,""I know. I'm just saying that if Mother had another child and he also wanted to sit on the crown prince or the throne, would Mother kill Zheng 'er for them?”
"Why would you suddenly think that?"
Lady Zhao squatted down and hugged Ying Zheng tightly." Zheng 'er, what nonsense are you talking about? How could my mother have other children? In order not to threaten your position as the heir, after my mother and your father had sex, they would..."
At this point, Lady Zhao suddenly realized something and quickly shut up. Her face was red, and after a long while, she stammered,"Don't let your imagination run wild. Mother can't even bear to hit you. Why would she do those things to you? Did you hear something, or…"
"No, it's just that Zheng 'er cares too much about his mother. He's afraid that one day, someone will share his mother's love.”
The expression on Ying Zheng's face returned to normal. He rubbed against Lady Zhao's chest and said coquettishly.
"So that's how it is!"
Seeing Ying Zheng in such a state, Lady Zhao was relieved. She thought that something had happened to her beloved son, and that he was probably worried that she would have another child after seeing the flood dragon.
Thinking of this, Lady Zhao became happy again. She rubbed Ying Zheng's head lovingly and said,""Zheng 'er, don't worry. Before this, mother only had you as her son. After this, she will only have you.”
"Your worries are unnecessary. No matter what happens in the future, mother loves you. No one can separate us!”
"Then mother, you must keep your promise.”
Ying Zheng, who was lying on Lady Zhao's shoulder, suddenly lowered his head and bit down hard on her shoulder.
"Ah!"
Concubine Zhao cried out in surprise, but Ying Zheng had already raised his head and suddenly said with a smile,""This is my promise to my mother."
"Bad child, how dare you bite your mother!”
Lady Zhao was both angry and delighted. She pressed down hard on Ying Zheng's head, then spread her arms and pretended to be a tiger." Then, I'll bite you too."”
"Then you have to chase me, mother!”
Ying Zheng grinned and stopped thinking about those things. He turned around and ran, but he did not run very fast.
The mother and son quarreled all the way back to Xingle Palace.
After this game, Zhao Ji also threw the sadness that arose in her heart to the back of her mind.
Her son's words made her understand that everything she had now came from her husband's status and power.
She could only try to understand.
Anyway, she had a son.
As long as she could be with Zheng 'er, she would be very happy.
Although Ying Zheng had displayed a domineering and strong desire to control things at such a young age, which made people dislike him very easily, Lady Zhao enjoyed Ying Zheng's dominance very much.
This meant that her son still loved her and valued her. Their relationship was still as close as ever.
Ying Zheng was afraid of losing his mother.
The current Concubine Zhao was also afraid of losing her beloved son or becoming estranged from him.
The two of them had relied on each other for so many years and were already used to each other. If one of them was suddenly missing, they would feel extremely uncomfortable.
During the two months that Ying Zheng had left Xianyang, Lady Zhao had been in a very low mood. She often hugged Ying Zheng's clothes and thought of him when she saw them.
Therefore, Ying Zheng's strong desire to control her did not make her feel disgusted, but instead made her look forward to it.
She hoped that Ying Zheng would always be like this.
Because it meant that she had always been very important in Ying Zheng's heart.
This way, the mother and son would never be separated and there would be no conflicts.
"Mother, happy birthday."
After returning to Xingle Palace, Ying Zheng secretly took the wooden box that Dong 'er had prepared for him, and suddenly placed it in front of Lady Zhao.
"What? What, what is this?"
Obviously, Lady Zhao did not expect Ying Zheng to prepare another gift. She was surprised, but also curious.
"Mother, guess."
Ying Zheng didn't say it out loud. He crossed his arms and looked at Lady Zhao with great interest.
"Food?"
Lady Zhao asked cautiously, her beautiful eyes fixed on Ying Zheng.
Ying Zheng shook his head slightly.
"Jewelry?"
Lady Zhao guessed again, but Ying Zheng continued to shake his head.
"Zheng 'er, tell me quickly! You only know how to tease mother!"
Lady Zhao could not guess what was going on, and she was a little angry. In the end, she shook Ying Zheng's arm and spoke in a coquettish tone.
Zhao Ji, who was almost thirty years old, displayed the charm of a young girl.
