Ever since Zhao Tuo talked eloquently in the side hall that day and described a battle between Yan and Di in a thrilling and lifelike way.
Ying Yinman remembered his eloquent mouth.
Basically every few days, she would call Zhao Tuo to a side hall in the name of Fu Su and ask him to talk about outside affairs.
Of course, Fusu was indeed there. This handsome young man took up this disguise at his sister's request.
He also liked listening to Zhao Tuo talk about outside things.
Although Fusu had contact with Chu Ke and Confucian scholars in Xianyang City, most of those people only quoted scriptures, talked about some ancient things, and liked to use the ancients to make fun of the present.
On the contrary, what Zhao Tuo said was the real life of the people at the lowest level in this era.
Either in the military or among the people.
Either in the land of Zhao, or in the land of Yan, or in the countryside of Qin.
The vivid characters and the events that happened in this era made Fusu come into contact with voices from the bottom of society for the first time.
Moreover, some of the opinions that Zhao Tuo said from time to time were very interesting, which sometimes inspired Fusu, and he was willing to act as a cover for Ying Yinman.
But Zhao Tuo was helpless.
He came to the palace not to tell stories to others, but to get acquainted with better and wider connections while gaining seniority, and at the same time win the appreciation of Qin Wangzheng.
What's more, Fusu's identity is too sensitive, and the Chu clan imprint on him is too strong, so he is not favored by the Qin king.
In addition, there is the time bomb of Changping-kun.
Zhao Tuo did not want to have too close contact with Fusu, let alone participate in the establishment of the crown prince in the Qin Dynasty.
It's a pity that people under the eaves have to bow their heads.
Didn’t you see that General Li Hu couldn’t refuse the princess’s request?
How could he, a young man, say no?
However, Fusu was a little busy during this period and rarely came here. Only Zhao Tuo and Ying Yinman were left, so he became the princess's full-time story lecturer.
Speaking,,,edition.]
There are only a few things that can be said outside. When Zhao Tuo finished speaking, he spread his hands.
"Gone."
"It's gone? You're gone? Why are you so short?"
Ying Yinman's eyes widened and she said: "I think you are so good at talking, you must be able to make up some interesting stories of your own? Tell me one quickly."
The girl was both threatening and coquettishly begging. With this look, Zhao Tuo couldn't resist it, and he surrendered within a few rounds.
Let me tell you about a young man named Hu Hai who faked his inheritance?
In the troubled times of the late Qin Dynasty, Xiang Yu burned Xianyang while fighting for hegemony?
Zhao Tuo curled his lips, suppressed his thoughts of mischief, recalled some novels he had read before, and picked a suitable story to tell.
"The story I'm telling is called The Legend of the Heroes of Shedong, and it starts from the Qiantang River..."
"Where is the Qiantang River?"
………
Ying Yinman liked the stories Zhao Tuo told so much that he couldn't sleep at night and wanted to listen to them every day.
In all her life, she has never heard of such interesting things.
All kinds of magical martial arts moves, all kinds of weird adventures, as well as the couple named Huang Rong and Guo Jing, and their love story.
This is more attractive than fighting or anything like that.
Ying Yinman was completely lost when her youthful heart was budding.
She couldn't bear the days of catching up, and she wanted to see Zhao Tuo every day, listen to him telling the love story between Guo and Huang, and want to know what the ending of the story would be like.
So the princess couldn't wait for the meeting that only happened every few days, so she went to Zhonglang's office every day, and would take Zhao Tuo away whenever she caught him resting.
In this way, even a fool can see that there is something wrong.
"Princess, no!"
Li You's face was full of grief and anger, and he refused the princess's request for the first time.
Ying Yinman raised his eyebrows and said angrily: "Why not? My brother appreciates Zhao Tuo's talent very much and wants to discuss things with him. Li You, do you have to refuse my brother and me?"
Although Ying Yinman is a woman, when she gets angry now, she reveals a sense of majesty, very much like that aloof king.
Seeing the princess in front of him getting angry and frightening, Li You inexplicably became half shorter. His usual stern appearance in front of his subordinates had long since disappeared, and he weakly closed his mouth.
"Zhao Tuo, come with me to see my brother."
Ying Yinman had a cold face and left with Zhao Tuo who was full of embarrassment.
Seeing that the two of them had disappeared, Li You still stood on the same spot and murmured to himself: "It's all Mr. Fusu who invited me. This is what Mr. Fusu meant."
Yang Xiong, Zhao Ben and other subordinates looked at each other with strange expressions from behind.
Is General Li Hu stupid?
As the Zhonglang patrolling the palace, they knew very well that Young Master Fusu was not in the palace today.
Zhao Tuo also knew that this was not good. Yang Xiong had told him that Qin Wangzheng wanted to deal with Princess Li Youshang. He knew that after Ying Yinman did this, he would probably be hated by Li Youji.
It's not that Zhao Tuo was afraid of Li You, but that he had a good relationship with Li Si, and Li You had shown kindness to him before, so the two parties had the possibility of forming an alliance. Although they didn't fall out on the spot now, they still couldn't.
We will never be as close as before.
Moreover, Ying Yinman is really not someone he can refuse if he wants to.
He had underestimated this princess before.
Zhao Tuo originally thought that Ying Yinman was just a young lady from the palace with a weak personality, but he did not expect that underneath her beautiful and lively appearance, she had a strong heart.
Zhao Tuo just raised his concerns and wanted to tell her tactfully that doing so would easily cause criticism.
Upon hearing this, Ying Yinman snorted coldly: "I'm not even afraid. What else do you, a man, have to be afraid of?"
Zhao Tuo's mouth twitched slightly and said: "The main thing is that I am afraid that the king will know."
Ying Yinman hesitated for a moment, then smiled and said: "If Father knows, then he knows, so what can he do."
"Zhao Tuo."
"I am the princess and you are the lieutenant. In this Qin Palace, you must listen to me."
Ying Yinman spoke very slowly, but his tone did not allow him to refute.
Zhao Tuo stared blankly at the girl in front of him. When she spoke, she looked very much like Qin Wangzheng.
Much more similar than Fusu.
Qin Wangzheng still knew about this.
He sat on the imperial couch, watched Ying Yinman walk into the room, and sighed softly.
"Father."
"Do you often go to Zhonglang's official office to see Zhao Tuo?"
"yes."
Ying Yinman agreed simply, but Qin Wangzheng was stunned for a moment.
He didn't get angry. He was always very patient with his eldest daughter.
"My dear princess, why do you always find a lieutenant? What will it sound like if word spreads about it?"
Ying Yinman smiled and said, "Zhao Tuo's words are very interesting. I have never heard of the stories he told."
Qin Wangzheng remembered that he had stood outside the side hall and listened to Zhao Tuo telling his children about the war in Yan.
What the boy said was indeed good, and even the mighty King Qin was fascinated by it, and stood outside the palace for a long time without realizing it.
Qin Wangzheng understood somewhat and said seriously: "But you are older now, if this continues..."
"By the way, father, I remembered that Zhao Tuo said that he knew a way to increase grain production, which could increase grain production by one stone per acre of farmland!"
"What, increase the yield per mu by one stone?"
Qin Wangzheng's expression changed, and his thoughts suddenly jumped from his children's private affairs to the important affairs of the country.
"Are you telling the truth? Does that kid really have such a method?"
"Yes, yes, I wanted to tell my father before, but I forgot about it. He has a lot of clever ideas."
When Ying Yinman saw her father's expression, a sly smile appeared on her lips.
