Chapter 58: Promise

"Why are you here?" Mi Ji on the chariot only talked to Fusu, not paying attention to Zhao Zheng's gaze. Mi Qian, who was standing beside her, was suddenly shocked when she saw Zhao Zheng staring at Mi Xuan for a long time.

"Today is Shangsi, and I heard that the Queen Mother Zu and the Queen left the palace..." Zhao Zheng replied, carefully wiping away the water droplets that had just fallen on Mi Ji's shoulders. "Chunri and Xi, Zheng'er is willing to accompany the Queen Mother Zu to enjoy the spring scenery."

Only when facing Mi Ji did Zhao Zheng speak like this childish tone. He was pure filial piety. Although the Queen Mother Zu was alive and Qin would destroy Chu one day later, he would rather Qin destroy Chu later. The chariot could be carried or pulled. Zhao Zheng now pulled Mi Ji's chariot slowly forward, and the rest of them followed behind him.

"Stop, stop." Zhao Zheng pulled for about half a mile, and Mi Ji shouted to stop. She could hear Zhao Zheng's increasingly heavy breathing.

"Empress Dowager Zu..." Zhao Zheng was sweating all over his head.

"If your mother knows it, she wants to... cough cough, and say more again." Mi Ji blamed. "Zhi'er, please wipe the sweat of the king."

Mi Qian came to help Zhao Zheng wipe his sweat when he heard the sound. Zhao Zheng didn't move and let her wipe it. Seeing the two of them so intimate, Mi Ji smiled happily. The thing she was most satisfied with was to let Zhao Zheng marry Mi Qian, make Mi Qian the queen, and then give birth to the legitimate prince Fusu.

The most reliable inheritance of power is the continuation of bloodline. Fusu will be the prince in the future and will naturally be the king in the future. No one can change this, and there is no way to change it. When Fusu ascends the throne and becomes king, Qin and Chu may be able to maintain long-term peace. Of course, this is difficult to do, but there are Xiong Qi, Li Si, Wei Lin, Wang Wan, Meng Tian, ​​Wang Jian, Qiang Lu..., there are court officials and officials of all sizes in the country, and countless generals and commanders in the army, and this thing can always be done.

Qin and Chu, Chu and Qin, Mi Ji did not want to see any of the two countries perish.

"Let's retreat, the old woman has something to say to King Yu." Mi Ji said with a smile. Including Mi Qian, everyone retreated.

"Please give me the precepts." Zhao Zheng knew that Mi Ji was about to speak, so he bowed and stood beside the chariot.

"It's not a warning. It's the Queen Mother Zu who thought of her mother country." As she spoke, Mi Ji's eyes slowly moved to Zhao Zheng's face. "If the king destroys Zhao, Wei, Qi, will the Jing Kingdom be destroyed?"

Queen Mother Zu bluntly called Chu the mother country, and naturally hoped that Chu could survive. Before the events that happened later, for Mi Ji, Zhao Zheng could of course agree to retain several cities in the future so that Chu would not be sacrificed. Isn’t this the case for Wei State? Because Wei Liao pleaded for mercy, the Wei State in history had never sacrificed its sacrifice. It was not until the second generation of Qin, Hu Hai, ascended the throne, that Wei State was deposed as a commoner, and Wei State was sacrificed its sacrifice.

However, the current reality is obviously different from history. The State of Chu is not only getting stronger and stronger, but also forming cliques and joining alliances with Zhao, Qi and Wei. It is not the question of whether Qin will perish or not. Now it is the case that if Qin does not perish, Chu will be necessary to perish.

Zhao Zheng smiled bitterly and said slowly: "Reported to the Queen Mother Zu, it is not that the Qin Dynasty wants to destroy Jing, but that the Jing Dynasty wants to destroy Qin. Zheng'er sent envoys to Jing several times and was willing to make good friends with Jing, but King Jing did not want to."

Zhao Zheng was telling the truth, and Mi Ji couldn't help but close his eyes. The interests of the country were not transferred by the weak marriage between the royal family. Chu made up his mind to join forces with Zhao, Qi and Wei to resist Qin, and Qin and Chu were no longer in harmony.

"King Jing is afraid of the Great Qin." Mi Ji did not think that Chu did something wrong. "What he did was to extend the country's fortune and maintain the country. If the king destroyed the three kingdoms of Zhao, Qi and Wei, would Jing be destroyed?"

"Zheng'er will never stop the sacrifices of Jing State." Zhao Zheng agreed. "But if Jing State can marry our Great Qin and make good friends..."

"The king wants to share the world with King Jing?" Mi Ji looked at Zhao Zheng and asked with a smile.

"If King Jing is willing to marry the Qin State and make good friends, he can share the world with the Qin State." Zhao Zheng said very seriously. He looked at Mi Ji with some doubts, wondering if she had a good plan to make good friends with the Chu State.

"It is impossible to share the world with the common people." Mi Ji did not believe in Zhao Zheng's guarantee, but did not believe that sharing the world with the common people could be maintained for a long time. This is almost impossible, unless Zhao and Qi merged into one country and the three countries maintained a balance of power. "The old woman thought that if Qin was victorious, she should not stop the sacrifices of Jing; if Jing was victorious, she should also stop the sacrifices of Qin. Do the king agree?"

"Yes." Zhao Zheng would definitely refute this if someone else said this, but the person who spoke was Queen Mother Zu Mi Ji.

"Since that's the case..." Mi Ji paused for a moment, and looked at Zhao Zheng again, "Mi Qian is the queen of Qin. Although Mi Xuan's surname is Mi, she was born from Qin. Queen Mother Zu thought she should send her to Jing and thought she was the queen of Jing."

"Mi, Mi Xuan..." Zhao Zheng couldn't help but look back. Mi Xuan in pure clothes was standing behind Mi Qian.

"What, the king doesn't want to?" Mi Ji saw Zhao Zheng looking back at Mi Xuan, she thought Zhao Zheng would agree on the spot.

"Zheng'er," Zhao Zheng looked bitter, "Reported to the Queen Mother Zu: Mi Xuan has become Zheng'er's concubine, so it is inappropriate to send him into Jing."

"What's wrong?" Mi Ji raised her throat, and she saw Zhao Zheng bowing her head. "Since the ancestor Mu Gong, Qin and Jing have been in marriage for four hundred years. If it weren't for Lu Buwei's attack on Jing that year, how could Qin and Jing have had a bad relationship... cough cough... now... cough cough cough..."

Mi Ji was so angry that she spoke quickly, but after she recovered from the illness, she was too weak and she coughed violently. It was fine if she didn't cough, but she coughed one after another. Zhao Zheng was very anxious and hurriedly said: "Zheng'er promises! Zheng'er promises! Quickly, quickly pass them to the imperial physician..."

Because of excitement, Mi Ji's face began to turn purple. Zhao Zheng became anxious and shouted that the imperial physician. Mi Qian, Mi Xuan, Shangwu and others rushed up quickly. Seeing Mi Ji's face turned purple, they were also panicked. Helplessly, they could only ask the temple's people to bring warm willow bark juice and wait until Mi Ji's cough was relieved before they could be poured.

Mi Ji was old and had a heart disease. After recovering from the disease, she was still a little cold. In the end, it was the inexplicable excitement. Everything added up to make her faint eventually. Zhao Zheng wanted to cry but no tears, and the fire in his heart could only vent on others. "Come on! They don't take good care of each other, give it to me, give it to me..."

Seeing that the familiar palace maid servant was about to be dragged by the soldiers to ask for a question, Mi Xuan was filled with blood and said to Zhao Zhengsu: "The murder is unknown. If the imperial physician is helpless, please ask the king to quickly ask the genius doctor of Jing State, Feng Le to Xianyang..."

"Everyone blames you!" Zhao Zheng regretted not agreeing to Mi Ji immediately. Now seeing Mi Xuan pleading, he felt that everything was her fault. What is "Jing Guo is victorious, and he should continue to sacrifice to Qin Guo" is nothing more than Mi Xuan begging to enter Chu Guo. Empress Dowager Zu softened her heart and agreed to her, so she came to ask for herself.

"Hmph!" Zhao Zheng shook his hand back and wanted to sue someone. He glared at Mi Xuan fiercely, and then he stomped his feet and chased Mi Ji's carriage away.

"Hahaha..." When the Xianyang Palace in Weibei, when the Queen Mother Zhao Ji fainted, she couldn't help laughing. She laughed so hard that everyone in Xianyang wanted to hear her laughter. "The old poisonous woman is about to die, and the old poisonous woman is about to die! Hahahaha."

"The king has sent people to Jing State to summon the genius doctor of Jing State," the temple people who reported the report were so sharp that they could not evade the gloomy and moldy smell. Xianyang was more than a hundred years ago. Qin State was still competing with Wei State for Hexi more than a hundred years ago, so the palace was extremely small and did not dare to surpass the etiquette. Although it was expanded later, it was useless. He could only build a new palace outside the city. The king and queen all stayed in Weinan. The Xianyang Palace was vacant very early, leaving only some elderly temple people and palace maids.

"What's the use of Zhao Fengli? Everyone with the surname Mi has a heart disease, and the old poisonous woman's deadline has arrived." Zhao Ji calmed down her laughter, but she was also worried that Mi Ji would recover from the disease again, so she asked, "Can you know why the old poisonous woman suffers from the disease?"

"Report to the Queen Mother, say yes, say yes..." Zhao Ji dared to scold Mi Ji's old poisonous wife, but the temple's people dared not, and the temple's people dared to call the Queen Mother in front of Zhao Ji, so they could only skip. "It was said that it was for Mi Xuan to plead for mercy, and asked the king to allow Mi Xuan to enter Jing."

"Why did Mi Xuan go to Jing Kingdom?" Zhao Ji was puzzled.

"I heard that King Jing loved Mi Xuan very much, so I... asked the king for help." The temple's people also heard from others and followed the crowd.

"Mi Xuan has been the concubine of the king. How can I give it to King Jing?" Zhao Ji interrupted.

"It is said that Mi Xuan had never married the king and told the temple, so he was not the concubine of the king." The temple man said again, which was what he heard.

"Da Miao!" In line with the policy that we must oppose when the enemy agrees, Zhao Ji began to grit her teeth. "Mi Xuan's name has long been worshipped in Taimiao. The former kings all knew that she was the concubine of the king. How could she give it to King Jing? Prepare a car, I want to see the king!"

Since the old poisonous woman has been sick again because of Mi Xuan's excitement, wouldn't she be excited again if she didn't let Mi Xuan go to Chu? She may be able to survive twice a year. If she has a heart disease three times a year, she will definitely die. With such a secret joy, Zhao Ji rushed to Taimiao first and made a arrangement before heading to Qutai Palace.

"Mother Queen..." Mi Ji did not return to Huayang Palace, but sent it to Qutai Palace. The frustrated Zhao Zheng was surprised to see Zhao Ji suddenly appear. "What happened to this mother later?"

"Mother is just for Zheng's son later." Zhao Ji saw Zhao Zheng's indescribable love, and she always felt that it was the old poisonous woman who snatched her husband and then snatched her son.

Zhao Zheng was puzzled. What he was most worried about was that Zhao Ji had a big fuss here. "Mother, Zheng'er is still dealing with government affairs, and he will go to Xianyang Palace later..."

"No need." Zhao Ji refused. She didn't come to ask Zhao Zheng to have dinner with her at night. "My mother heard that Zheng'er wanted to give Mi Xuan to King Jing?"

"Give me?" Zhao Zheng was very surprised by the word. "Mi Xuan was not married, and he wanted to go to Jing Kingdom, Zheng'er..."

"It's really not possible!" Zhao Ji interrupted. "Mi Xuan is the queen's dowry mother. Her name has long been worshipped in Taimiao. The ancestors and ancestors all knew that she was your wife and concubine. How could you give her to King Jing?"

"Ah." Zhao Zheng looked at Zhao Ji in surprise, thinking for a while before he understood her intention. "Mother, Mi Xuan has never joined forces with Zheng'er..."
