Chapter 163 Ying Zheng: She Looks Like Dong'er! This Can't Be a Coincidence!
Wang Yan said happily.
For the courtiers, it was an incomparable honor that Ying Zheng took the elder seat instead of Zhao Feng's mother that day.
"The king is sitting at the elders' table?"
Hear this.
There was a wave of confusion in Zhao's eyes.
"Yes, mother."
"This is also the king's kindness to your husband." Wang Yan replied with a smile.
For today's court, Zhao Feng is a well-deserved upstart in the court, and he is also known as a person who is likely to ascend to the position of national captain in the future.
"This, maybe it's really fate."
"Brother Zheng, you are sitting in the right seat."
"This can be regarded as settling the regret in my heart." Zhao thought secretly in her heart.
Time flies!
soon.
Another two days later.
Today's Zhao Mansion is unprecedentedly lively.
The whole village came to the house. There was no room for sitting in the house, and a banquet was also held outside the house.
Today is the day when Zhao Feng returns to the village to hold a wedding banquet.
Although this wedding banquet was not as crowded as in Xianyang, today's wedding banquet was also unprecedentedly lively. Both the old villagers and the new villagers in the village got the opportunity to attend the wedding banquet.
For Zhao Feng, he naturally didn't care about spending so much money, so he specially held a banquet when he returned this time.
throughout the village.
There are busy cooks and busy guards everywhere.
Fortunately, there are enough people, otherwise it would be really busy.
certainly.
As for the tables, most of them were brought by the villagers. Even the Zhao Mansion did not have that many tables.
In order to fulfill his mother's dream.
Today, Zhao Feng is still wearing black wedding clothes, and so is Wang Yan.
Inside and outside the hall.
Mrs. Zhao sat at the elders' table.
Wu Lizheng also sat at the elder's seat, and at Zhao's strong request, Xia Wuji also sat at the elder's seat.
In this house.
Here comes another wedding reception.
If it was said that when he was in Xianyang in the past, it was to give Wang Yan a grand wedding as an explanation, then this time it was Zhao Feng who gave it to his mother.
Time flies!
Zhao Feng was very comfortable staying at home, enjoying the long-lost tranquility.
Taking his wife and children for a walk in the mountains every day, and then accompanying his mother, this kind of life is simply a family happiness for Zhao Feng.
Very enjoyable and very intoxicating.
but.
What Zhao Feng yearns for is to become stronger.
…
A month passed in a flash.
Village entrance.
Zhao Feng also restarted his return journey.
"Mom, are you really not going to Xianyang with us?"
"Sister, she is going to come with me." Zhao Feng asked with some reluctance.
"You go ahead."
"It just so happens that my mother is quiet and peaceful at home." Ms. Zhao said with a slight smile.
"Then Grandpa Xia."
"You're not going back to Xianyang either?" Zhao Feng looked at Xia Wuji worriedly.
One month of getting along.
From the title, it can be heard that Zhao Feng has changed somewhat towards Xia Wuji.
"Ha ha."
"Xianyang is like a prison to me. From now on, I will travel around the Qin Dynasty to practice medicine. When you get back, tell the king. When you want to go back, I will go back."
"He doesn't need to go to me either." Xia Wuji replied with a smile.
"You are the person that the king watches most. If you don't go back, the king will not be relieved." Zhao Feng sighed.
"It doesn't matter. When he wants to ask questions, just take out the handwritten note I gave you."
"After so many years in Xianyang, I am tired." Xia Wuji smiled with relief.
Especially looking at his daughter's appearance, he also knew what his daughter was thinking. If he returned to Xianyang, it would be bad if something was discovered.
Everything, just let it happen.
He really didn't want to lose his daughter again, and he also wanted to protect his grandson.
Those people are crazy!
A madman who will do anything to achieve his goal.
"Okay." Zhao Feng could only nod helplessly.
"Ying'er, have you really thought about it clearly? Do you really want to go out with your brother? Go to the army?" Zhao Feng looked at his sister again and asked.
"nature."
"I don't want to be criticized in the village." Zhao Ying was very determined.
"Okay, just don't regret it when the time comes." Zhao Feng was too lazy to say anything.
"Qi'er, Ling'er, say goodbye to your grandmother." Zhao Feng said to a pair of children.
"Grandma, we will be back soon."
"Yeah, me too."
The two little guys said one sentence to the other.
Subsequently.
The convoy sets off!
Zhao and Xia Wuqe watched quietly.
"Dong'er."
"Perhaps I can avoid being exposed if I don't go back, but if I don't go back, the king may dig deeper."
"As long as you are Zhao Feng's mother, you will see the king one day. It is impossible not to see him."
"The king is very smart. He will find out. Everything is because you think the king is too simple, and you still think the king is the same as he was twenty-one years ago."
Looking at his daughter beside him, Xia Wuji sighed.
He did everything according to his daughter's ideas, but Xia Wuqi could predict the result.
The Qin Wangzheng twenty-one years ago might have been able to be fooled, but the Qin Wangzheng today is impossible.
However, Xia Wuqie would not take the initiative to point it out.
…
Xianyang!
Inside Zhangtai Palace!
"Your Majesty."
"The general and his family have returned to the city."
Ren Xiao quickly came to the palace to report.
Ying Zheng put down the memorial and suddenly became interested: "Has their whole family entered the city?"
"I don't know, but I think it should be the case. After all, the general already has a mansion in Xianyang. Naturally, he won't leave his mother and sister to live in the sand dunes, right?" Ren Xiao said with a hint of speculation.
"I have never met Zhao Feng's mother and sister, but I happened to meet them today."
"Pass an edict to let Zhao Feng's family enter the palace directly."
"Gu Zheng also rewarded his family." Ying Zheng said immediately.
If Zhao Feng could leave all his family members in Xianyang, Ying Zheng would naturally feel more at ease with Zhao Feng and use him without any scruples.
For the king, the generals who command the troops abroad must have control in their hands. This is also the control of royal power.
"I accept the edict." Ren Xiao bowed and immediately retreated.
Arrive at Xianyang City.
"My lord, there are guards coming from ahead."
Looking at Ren Xiao galloping ahead, Zhang Ming immediately turned his head and reported.
Zhao Feng immediately opened the curtain and took a look.
"General."
Ren Xiaoce immediately stepped forward and raised his hand to Zhao Fengyi in the carriage.
"Commander Ren, what's important?" Zhao Feng smiled slightly.
"The king has an order to let the general enter the palace directly." Ren Xiao said respectfully.
"My sister, wife and children are all on the carriage. Should we go directly to the palace?" Zhao Feng asked slightly surprised.
"The king said that he just wanted to meet the general's family." Ren Xiao replied immediately.
"That's it, okay then." Zhao Feng nodded and did not refuse.
Although the whole family except the mother entered the palace together, if it were to be a palace fight or a court battle, it would not be a good thing for a general to bring his family into the palace, and there might be some ambushes or the like.
But now we are in Da Qin.
But Qin Shihuang.
In history, Qin Shihuang did not kill any meritorious officials. The so-called master of great merit did not exist for Qin Shihuang.
soon.
Outside Zhangtai Palace!
Zhao Feng took Wang Yan, Zhao Ying, and his two children to wait outside.
"elder brother."
"What kind of person is the king?"
"Are you the kind of person who loses his temper easily?"
Arriving at the Qin Palace, which was still the highest center of authority in the Qin Dynasty, Zhao Ying was also a little uneasy at this moment.
She was originally an ordinary civilian girl, and she had never encountered such a battle.
"That's not sure. If you talk nonsense later, I might lock you up." Zhao Feng turned his head and deliberately frightened his sister.
Hear this.
Zhao Ying's pretty face immediately showed a look of fear: "Really or not?"
"Husband, please stop scaring Ying'er."
Wang Yan couldn't stand it anymore and immediately spoke.
Then he said to Zhao Ying: "Ying'er, don't listen to your brother. The king is not the kind of person who loses his temper randomly."
"Brother, you know how to bully me." Zhao Ying suddenly glared at Zhao Feng with dissatisfaction.
"Hahaha." Zhao Feng laughed.
Inside Zhangtai Palace!
"Start the memorial, Your Majesty."
"General Zhao Feng and his family are already waiting outside the palace." Ren Xiao respectfully reported.
"Xuan." Ying Zheng put down the memorial and waved his hand.
"The king has an edict."
"General Xuan Shang and his family have an audience." Ren Xiao immediately shouted outside.
echoed.
Zhao Feng slowly walked into the hall.
Wang Yan took the two little ones, and Zhao Ying followed Zhao Feng into the hall.
"I see you, Your Majesty."
Zhao Feng bowed to Ying Zheng.
"See you, Your Majesty."
Wang Yan and Zhao Ying also bowed and saluted immediately, with their heads lowered and not daring to look directly.
"No need." Ying Zheng waved his hand.
But then his eyes just glanced at him with a hint of confusion: "Where is Dr. Xia? And why isn't your mother here?"
"Return to the king."
"Doctor Xia has gone to Yunxing for treatment."
"As for Chen's mother, she didn't want to leave her homeland, so she never came to Xianyang." Zhao Feng replied with a smile.
"Doctor Xia has gone to Yunxing for treatment?" Ying Zheng's face changed, and a look of worry suddenly appeared: "Why didn't you stop him?"
"Your Majesty, I can't stop him."
"This is Dr. Xia's handwriting. Take a look at it yourself." Zhao Feng had no choice but to take out Xia Wuji's handwriting from his arms and hand it to Ying Zheng.
Xia Wuqie took the calligraphy over without any hesitation and opened it to read.
After seeing the content in the handwriting, Ying Zheng's nervous look relaxed a little.
"well."
"It seems that Xianyang is like a prison to my father-in-law."
"He wanted to stay away so much."
"That's all, let's do as he wishes."
Ying Zheng sighed in his heart, and finally put down the handwriting without asking any more questions.
At this time!
Ying Zheng raised his eyes slightly and looked at Wang Yan and Zhao Ying beside her.
"What are you doing with your heads down?"
"Gu is not the king who waits to eat people."
"Everyone, raise your heads. There is no need to be afraid." Ying Zheng smiled slightly.
In response to his voice.
Wang Yan and Zhao Ying raised their heads at the same time.
Different from Wang Yan's calmness.
Zhao Ying had an uneasy look on her face.
But the moment Ying Zheng saw Zhao Ying, his eyes couldn't help but froze.
"Dong'er?"
Ying Zheng couldn't help but exclaimed.
"What Dong'er?"
Zhao Feng was stunned and asked in confusion.
Come back to his senses.
I only saw Ying Zheng staring at his sister.
"Not good."
"This king will not fall in love with Ying'er."
"I don't want to become Qin Shihuang's brother, and my sister can't marry an old man."
Just one glance.
A sense of uneasiness emerged in Zhao Feng's heart.
Now the King of Qin is okay with him, but he can't have any ideas about his sister.
"King."
"This is my sister Zhao Ying."
Zhao Feng immediately turned sideways and stood in front of his sister.
"Your sister?"
Ying Zheng looked at her in surprise, but his heart was churning.
"It seems, too similar."
"At least six points similar."
"It looks like Dong'er when she was young."
"Is it really such a coincidence?" Ying Zheng was thinking in his heart at this moment. It was the first time he saw a woman who looked so similar to Dong'er, and this woman was the sister of his most favored minister.
This is too much of a coincidence.
Is there really such a similarity in this world?
"Your sister doesn't look like you."
Ying Zheng retracted his gaze and said to Zhao Feng with a bit of ridicule.
"I look like my father, and my sister looks like my mother." Zhao Feng replied with a smile.
"Zhao Ying, right?"
Ying Zheng said slowly.
"Yes, I am." Zhao Ying replied politely.
"Is this your first time in Xianyang?" Ying Zheng asked very gently.
"Yes." Zhao Ying nodded.
"I heard that you, your brother and your mother depend on each other in your family."
"You came to Xianyang, so your mother is alone in the countryside?" Ying Zheng smiled and said.
"We persuaded mother to come with us, but she didn't come. She said she was not used to the prosperity of the capital and liked the tranquility of the countryside." Zhao Ying said truthfully.
"What a pity."
"I also want to see the demeanor of the mother of a 20-year-old general who can be cultivated for my Great Qin." Ying Zheng said with a look of disappointment.
Zhao Feng smiled: "Don't worry, Your Majesty. If Your Majesty goes to Shaqiu in the future, I will definitely bring my mother to see you."
"That's what you said."
"When I go there, don't hide." Ying Zheng laughed.
"That's what your Majesty said." Zhao Feng also replied with some annoyance.
"You just came back today, I won't say anything more to you."
"You go back to the mansion first, and we will discuss the establishment of the camp after the court tomorrow." Ying Zheng waved to Zhao Feng.
"I obey your order." Zhao Feng nodded in agreement without hesitation.
Then.
Zhao Feng left with Wang Yan and the others.
Ying Zheng was thoughtful, staring at Zhao Ying's figure.
"Similar, too similar."
"This back, this face, are six points similar."
"Is it really a coincidence?" Ying Zheng's face was very solemn at this moment, with deep thought on his face.
Even the most difficult memorials to review have never made Ying Zheng like this.
"Dun Ruo." Ying Zheng shouted loudly.
After a while.
Dun Ruo immediately came to Ying Zheng from the inner hall.
"Please give me your orders, Your Majesty." Dun Ruo said respectfully.
"Give me the native place book of Zhao Feng again." Ying Zheng said in a deep voice.
"Yes." Dun Ruo did not ask why, and turned around and entered the back hall. After a while, he held up a book in his hand.
This was exactly what Ying Zheng had seen before.
He ignored Dun Ruo.
Ying Zheng opened the book directly and read it carefully.
After a long time.
Ying Zheng did not see anything unusual in the book.
"Did you check this book yourself?" Ying Zheng raised his head and looked at Dun Ruo and asked.
"I checked everything myself."
"From the official household register, I sent people to his village to check secretly. The book is absolutely correct." Dun Ruo replied immediately.
"Zhao Feng's father died in Handan City."
"Zhao Feng's mother is from Qiulin Village."
"Mother is proficient in medicine, and Zhao Feng is also involved in medicine."
"Do you think there will be such a coincidence?"
"Could it be that the person I asked you to find is Zhao Feng's mother?"
When asking this question, Ying Zheng's eyes became hot.
"Your Majesty."
"I met Miss Dong'er before, and I also drew a portrait of Miss Dong'er."
"But Zhao Feng's mother is not her."
"The housekeeper sent by the king to the Zhao Mansion is a secret agent of the Black Ice Platform, and he also knows Miss Dong'er's portrait by heart. No, it should be said that all the secret agents of the Black Ice Platform know Miss Dong'er's portrait by heart. If Zhao Feng's mother is, she would have reported it long ago." Dun Ruo explained again.
Hearing this!
Ying Zheng looked disappointed.
"Forget it."
"Maybe I'm overthinking." Ying Zheng sighed and asked, "The secret guards of the Black Ice Terrace have never been away from Dr. Xia, right?"
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty."
"Wherever Dr. Xia goes, there will be secret guards protecting him." Dun Ruo replied immediately.
"That's good." Ying Zheng nodded.
"If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave." Dun Ruo bowed and prepared to leave.
Looking at Dun Ruo's figure about to leave.
Ying Zheng still had some hope in his heart: "Wait."
Dun Ruo immediately stopped, bowed, and waited for Ying Zheng's order.
"Let the secret guards in the Zhao Mansion in Shaqiu draw a portrait of Zhao Feng's mother. After the painting is finished, immediately present it to me." Ying Zheng said in a deep voice.
"Yes." Dun Ruo bowed and accepted the order, and then retreated.
"Dong'er."
"Maybe there is little hope, but as long as there is any possibility, I will never miss it."
"And... my father-in-law's trip to Shaqiu this time was a bit too sudden."
"I must find out clearly." Ying Zheng murmured to himself.
Zhao Mansion!
After leaving the palace and returning home.
"Brother."
"This king looks very majestic. I am afraid to speak in front of him, for fear that he will chop me down if he gets angry." Zhao Ying said to Zhao Feng very aggrievedly.
"The king is indeed very majestic, but he is not the kind of person who is moody, so you can rest assured." Zhao Feng smiled.
"Husband, how are you going to arrange Ying'er?"
"Are you really going to take her to the army to suffer?" Wang Yan said reluctantly.
"Sister-in-law."
"Even in the army, it is just doing some of the doctor's duties, and it can't be said to be suffering."
"Besides."
"Maybe I can improve my medical skills in the army." Zhao Ying replied with a smile.
"Do you still want to go directly to the army?" Zhao Feng smiled.
"Is it not possible?" Zhao Ying's face changed, and he looked at his brother strangely.
"If you want to become a military doctor, you must first study in the Great Medical Hall for half a year before you can be incorporated into the army. Besides, your brother's camp has not yet been established, and the military medical camp also needs to fill many military doctors. You still need to stay in Xianyang for a while." Zhao Feng said with a smile.
"Do I still need to learn with my medical skills?" Zhao Ying said a little arrogantly.
"The medical skills you learned at home are medical skills, but the medical skills in the army are different. You will understand when you enter the Great Medical Hall." Zhao Feng shook his head and smiled, and was too lazy to explain anything.
After all.
In the past, when Zhao Ying was in Shaqiu, what he needed was to treat illnesses, but in the military camp it was to heal injuries.
There is still a big difference between the two.
"Yan'er."
"Arrange a room for Ying'er." Zhao Feng explained.
"Okay."
"Ying'er, come with me."
"This will be your home in Xianyang in the future." Wang Yan immediately took Zhao Ying's hand and said gently.
After they left.
Zhao Feng went back to his side hall.
"I have already refined dozens of furnaces of fasting pills. Next, I will refine some pills to restore internal strength and improve cultivation."
"I still need to continue collecting medicinal materials."
Zhao Feng summoned his alchemy furnace and then made pills as he was familiar with it.
In Zhangtai Palace!
"Your servant Li Si requests an audience."
Outside the palace, Li Si, dressed in an official robe, shouted respectfully.
As one of the nine ministers, he could directly enter the palace to meet the emperor, but he still needed to be announced outside Zhangtai Palace.
Seeing Li Si.
Zhao Gao nodded first, then said respectfully: "The court official, please wait."
Then Zhao Gao went in to announce.
"The king has issued an edict, and the court official can enter the palace to meet him." Zhao Gao walked out and said respectfully.
"Thank you." Li Si thanked him.
He was a smart man, and he did not look down on Zhao Gao, a eunuch, which was completely different from those great nobles.
After entering the palace.
Ying Zheng was still reviewing memorials. As a diligent king, his daily task was to handle various government affairs.
…
