"Precisely because a king cannot have too many feelings of his own, I hope that you can become an exception and stay by Gu's side..."

The majesty in Ying Zheng's eyes slowly receded, he looked at the other party and said.

However, after hearing this, Gongsun Liji showed a somewhat sad smile.

I saw him slowly taking off his coat and saying, "Since it is King Qin's wish, how dare I disobey it? I just ask you to let the people of Wei go after you fulfill your wish. Come on."

As soon as he finished speaking, he closed his eyes and a trace of tears fell from his cheeks.

Seeing this, Ying Zheng stepped forward and took a look at the other person's thin but still delicate face. Then he lowered his body to pick up the clothes that had fallen to the ground and put them on him again.

He said in an indifferent tone: "Is it true that I am so unbearable in your heart? If I really want your body, I can capture you the first time we meet.

But that’s just a sign of incompetence, and I don’t even bother to do it.”

Hearing this, Li Ji opened her eyes and asked: "What does the king want?"

"I want you to become the princess of Qin willingly!"

Ying Zheng looked directly at the other party and said.

Hearing this, Li Ji replied calmly: "You can trap people with ropes or lock them up in houses, but how can you control your heart?"

Hearing this answer, Ying Zheng once again showed the domineering attitude of a king, raised his head slightly and said: "It doesn't matter if you disagree now, all you have is time. As long as you are still here, you will be alone in the end."

Then he drank lightly: "Here comes someone!"

After the words fell, Zhao Gao came from outside the door and bowed respectfully: "Your Majesty, please give me your orders!"

Ying Zheng sat back on the throne again and said: "Pass on my order to confer Gongsun Liji as Concubine Li, and place her in Lixiu Palace. She will be rewarded with thousands of gold coins and hundreds of pieces of brocade!"

"promise!"

Zhao Gao responded, then came to Gongsun Liji and said: "Empress Liji, please follow me here."

After Li Ji glanced at Ying Zheng, she said nothing more and left with the former with an indifferent expression...

In the back courtyard of the palace, after placing Li Ji properly, Zhao Gao came to a luxurious palace alone, where he saw a charming woman with exquisite makeup sitting in the exquisite pavilion.

This person is none other than the beloved concubine of the King of Qin, Hu Ji.

"Slave, please pay homage to your empress!"

Zhao Gao stepped forward and bowed.

Seeing the arrival of the visitor, Hu Ji asked: "The official of the CRRC came to this palace in person, and I don't know why?"

Although Zhao Gao's official position was not high, he was close to King Qin and controlled the net, so her attitude was quite polite.

Upon hearing the question, Zhao Gao said with a smile on his face: "I came here today precisely for the sake of the empress and the eighteenth prince."

When Hu Ji heard this, she raised her eyebrows slightly and said, "Master Zhao, please speak clearly."

Zhao Gao smiled and told the truth about what had just happened without adding any exaggeration.

Hu Ji smiled slightly, then chuckled nonchalantly and said: "Your Majesty is the king of a country, what's the fuss about having a concubine?"

Zhao Gaodao: "It's okay to have a concubine, but the king's attitude towards this woman is a bit unusual. If he didn't have a great cause in the world to be completed, he might choose to be an ordinary person and stay with her for life."

Hu Ji couldn't help but look blank after hearing this. As a woman, he knew exactly what this meant.

Seeing his move, Zhao Gao continued: "I'm sorry to say this bluntly, although the 18th Prince is favored, in the final analysis it is because of your blessings.

If the king has a new love, I'm afraid..."

After the words fell, Hu Ji's eyes flickered, and then she said: "Even if this is really the case, I can only accept my fate. No one can interfere with the king's thoughts."

"The king is naturally supreme, but sometimes it's always right to find more friends."

Zhao Gao said calmly.

Hu Ji pondered slightly and said: "Since the Queen Mother came into being, the King has strictly ordered the harem not to interfere in politics. For this reason, even the position of Queen has been vacant for a long time. I dare not be disrespectful."

Zhao Gao's expression remained unchanged and he said: "In this case, even if I talk too much, I will go back now and I will not mention this matter again in the future.

It’s a pity that the 18th Crown Prince will probably have to face the dangers of the court alone in the future, fighting openly and secretly..."

After saying that, he saw him salute again, and then turned to leave.

"etc!"

But at this moment, the former suddenly stopped him.

The corners of Zhao Gao's mouth raised slightly, and then he turned around and replied, "I wonder if your Majesty has any other instructions?"

Hearing this, Hu Ji said: "Although I have never had any inappropriate thoughts, Hai'er just needs a teacher. I wonder if Mr. Zhao can give me some advice?"

Hearing this, Zhao Gao smiled slightly: "I am grateful to you for being able to help the 18th Prince, but I am just an official of the Central Chemistry Mansion with a humble status, so I am not worthy of such an important responsibility.

If you don’t mind me, my wife, I am willing to do my best to assist the young master.”

Hu Ji also smiled when he heard this: "In that case, I'd like to trouble Mr. Zhao. If you need my help in the future, just ask."

"Your Majesty is serious, this is my slave's honor."

Zhao Gao said very humbly.

Although the conversation between the two was a bit cryptic, the general meaning was still very clear. Zhao Gao would try his best to train Hu Hai, but he would not occupy his position. If the latter wanted to find another mentor in the future, he could.

Hu Ji also promised to help the other party, and the two parties were in the same boat from then on.

In this way, Zhao Gao finally entered the battle for royal power...

At the same time, in the woods of Yangzhai City, Ye Zhan also broke away from the interior scene. The surprise and emotion in his eyes were still difficult to calm down.

Although the identity of the golden light and shadow was not known until the end, from the other party's narrative, we learned many ancient secrets and the core of Fenghou Qimen.

Fenghou is a descendant of Fuxi, one of the three emperors, with the surname Feng. She was the right-hand man of Emperor Xuanyuan in ancient times and one of the three princes.

His cultivation is unfathomable, and he has developed nine palaces on the basis of Fuxi's Bagua. He has gathered the five elements of Taoism into Dacheng, and created the Qimen, which is today's Fenghou Qimen.

Although the realm of ancient sages is beyond the reach of ordinary people, the origin of any magic technique lies in Tao.

The heaven and earth are divided into yin and yang, the four elephants generate the eight trigrams, and the five elements determine the universe. It is precisely because of these that many unique skills have emerged and methods suitable for human practice have been created.
