The carriage slowly slowed down and finally stopped. Shu Li stepped out of the carriage and asked Qing He who was driving.
Qinghe shook his head, expressing that he didn't know.
Looking ahead, it seemed that the road ahead was blocked or something, causing the entire convoy to stop.
"Young Master, wait a moment, I will go and inquire."
Meng Tian drove his horse forward and saluted, said something to Shu Li, and then rode his horse forward again.
"Shaojun, I heard that in order to prevent spies from other countries from sneaking into Xianyang, checkpoints were specially set up to check people and caravans coming and going." Meng Tian, who had made inquiries and returned, reported back to Shuli.
Shuli raised her eyebrows slightly.
Since she accepted the [Net], no spies from other countries or other forces have been able to sneak into Xianyang and live intact for two days, so Xianyang has never set up any checkpoints in the past three years.
"Whose order?"
"Return to Young Master and guard the words. This is an order from the Queen Mother's Young Mansion."
"The Queen Mother's Young Mansion?" Shuli murmured.
The Queen Mother's Young Master, the Queen Mother's servants, and the Queen Mother's Lieutenants are collectively called the "Three Secretaries of the Queen Mother", and they are respectively in charge of the Queen Mother's daily general affairs, carriages, horses, and security guards.
Therefore, similar to the Queen Mother's housekeeper, the orders given by her must be based on the Queen Mother's will.
Queen Mother, Zhao Ji.
Shuli narrowed her eyes slightly.
Zhao Ji is a purely emotional woman. In her eyes, feelings are the most important. The interests of her family and country are far less practical to her than the feelings she can truly feel.
Historical Records: Mrs. Zichu was also the daughter of Zhao Hao’s family
However, I learned from Lu Buwei that Zhao Ji's family had indeed accumulated a lot of wealth for business, so that she could interact with Lu Buwei, who was also a big businessman.
However, when an accident happened and Zhao Ji was in trouble, her family fell into decline. In order to ensure the continuation of the family, the family's parents sold their property and even sold the young Zhao Ji to Lu Buwei in order to seek help from Lu Buwei.
Zhao Ji, who was sold to Lu Buwei because her family was in ruins, was worried that she would also be abandoned by Lu Buwei, so she practiced her dancing skills even more to please Lu Buwei. Lu Buwei also doted on her very much as she wished, but not in an ordinary way.
"Zi Chu never drank from Wei, but when he saw it, he talked about it. Because he wanted to live longer, Lu Buwei was angry. He thought that his family had been ruined and became Zi Chu. He wanted to catch a strange person, so he offered his concubine."
God's will caused people to have a banquet at Lu Buwei's home. He saw Zhao Ji dancing at the banquet and was deeply attracted by her beautiful appearance.
The foreigner asked for a gift, but in the midst of Lu Buwei's scolding, the foreigner said goodbye angrily and left. Although he was very reluctant to give up, in order to gain a future political future, Lu Buwei still reluctantly gave up his love and gave Zhao Ji to the foreigner.
Zhao Ji became an exchange item and had no choice.
She understood that Lu Buwei was a businessman after all. At critical moments, so-called emotions would become extremely cold and unfamiliar. She was sad, but she could only accept the reality.
Later, after the Changping War, Wang Lu led his army to continue to attack Zhao. The crisis for the Yiren family suddenly increased and they were facing annihilation.
As a result, the foreigner was lucky. Lu Buwei bribed the Zhao Guo sergeant who was guarding the foreigner with 600 gold, and was able to escape successfully, successfully escaping from Handan, which was extremely dangerous.
So Zhao Ji was abandoned again.
A poor woman who has been abandoned one after another has long been insecure in her heart. She just wants to regain the heart that is filled with emotions. Even such a small request in her opinion cannot be realized.
Maybe the stranger took her back to Xianyang later, but only three years later, the stranger passed away.
In some ways, Zhao Ji was abandoned by one person again.
So Zhao Ji completely became the ultimate pursuer of emotions, and which emotion is most easily satisfied?
the answer is,**.
It's the fastest and most direct, and it doesn't lie.
So Zhao Ji gradually sank into endless sex, trying to repair her broken heart.
Three years ago, when Shuli saw her for the first time, he noticed that there was loneliness and fear hidden in the depths of her aloof eyes.
She was afraid of being abandoned again, and once again in the silent night, her cold tears wet half of the quilt again, and then she shivered to sleep wrapped in the cold.
It could be said that Shu Li felt pity for her, so after killing the curse lying on her bed, he didn't have too many negotiations with her.
Even people who are innocent and kind at the beginning will become dirty after being contaminated with filth, especially people like Zhao Ji who have longed for love to the extreme.
She has been dominated by desire.
But the checkpoint that was suddenly set up today made it clear that it was for Shuli.
But Shuli knew clearly that Zhao Ji's move was definitely not to keep her out of Xianyang, it was more like a prank, a boring prank.
"Tell the guards in front that the queen of Da Qin is here. Kneel down quickly to greet her!" Shu Li stared at Meng Tian with a focused look, a vague aura bursting out.
Meng Tian quickly got off his horse and knelt down on one knee, "I will obey the queen's order."
Meng Tian acted very quickly and quickly broke through the obstruction of the checkpoint, and then he non-stop brought the news of the queen's return back to Xianyang.
Although Shuli's original intention was just to easily break through the checkpoint, he did not want to let the whole Xianyang know that the Queen of Qin was back.
Ganquan Palace
The cicada-green clouds on the temples are lightly picked up, the eyebrows are lightly sweeping the spring mountain, a cherry is dotted on the red lips, and the white teeth are lined with two rows of white jade. The smile is slightly open, like a concubine who wants to charm the king; the golden lotus is slowly moving, imitating Xi Shi to enchant the Lord of Wu. Thousands of charming looks
It’s endless to see, it’s a mess of coquettish paintings that are difficult to work on.
Zhao Ji is worthy of being the one who can make strangers fall in love at first sight. Even though she is lying lazily on the bed in a light shirt and covered by gauze curtains, she does nothing but looks at her graceful figure. Her whole body exudes an arousing aura.
of intangible charm.
A young woman in palace attire sat respectfully on her knees in front of the bed, her head lowered.
Zhao Ji gently stroked her forehead, slowly opened her eyes and looked at the woman kneeling in front of the gauze curtain.
"She's back?" Zhao Ji spoke slowly, with a soft and graceful tone. She was like a young lady who had never been to the outside world. She was full of curiosity about the outside world, but she also had an indescribable temptation and charm.
magnetic.
"Back to the Queen Mother, Ai'er has complied with the Queen Mother's orders and sent people to set up checkpoints many days ago, but..."
"It's just that you can't stop her, right?" Zhao Ji's tone was neither angry nor unhappy, just like a normal sentence.
As the Young Master of the Queen Mother, Ai'er did not dare to answer, but just lowered her head.
Zhao Ji chuckled, like a child who had succeeded in playing a prank, "I didn't expect to be able to stop her, I just could."
Ai'er didn't understand the meaning of Zhao Ji's words.
Don't "stop" and "stop" mean the same thing?
Zhao Ji sat up and walked out of the bed.
"Queen Mother." Ai'er stood up and went to greet her.
Zhao Ji slowly came to the room and looked at a wooden pillar on the side, with a deep sword mark embedded in it.
Zhao Ji couldn't help but recall that night, when she and Shuli looked at each other with murderous intent, she saw pity for her in Shuli's eyes.
