Chapter 134 It happened for a reason [Monday(1/2)

Cuihua Mountain, also known as Taiyi Mountain, is said to be the place where ancient immortals became enlightened.
There are many legends about Taiyi Mountain, and later emperors also established royal monasteries here.
The mountain range is located in the south of the Qinling Mountains and is the northern chain of the Qinling Mountains. The highest altitude is more than 2,000 meters.
Within the scope of the mountain range, there are beautiful scenery such as Bishan Lake, Tianchi Lake, and Sea of ​​Landslides and Stones. It was the "royal garden" of the Qin Dynasty and even later generations of emperors, and it was also a summer resort.
King Zhuang Xiang came here once last year.
Come again this year, Zhao Ji, Mrs. Xiuli and another beloved concubine named Yu Ji all followed.
It was noon, and the sun was blazing.
The group of people were tired from traveling in the mountains, so they took a rest in the palace.
That Yuji was only in her early thirties this year, and she was very charming and charming, especially her breasts had ridges, which made her the best in the harem.
In midsummer, she wore a blue and white dress, with a graceful figure, thin clothes, and walked around the temple with light steps.
King Zhuang Xiang didn't think there was anything special about Yu Ji when he saw her before. This time when he came to Cuihua Mountain, he noticed that Yu Ji was amazingly charming and had a unique charm.
King Zhuang Xiang looked at it and thought about it, and planned to go to Yu Ji's place to rest at night...
Zhao Ji sat aside and felt a little unhappy when she saw King Zhuang Xiang's expression. However, she remembered that her son had said that some things should be seen through but not revealed, so she pretended not to know and said nothing.

Xianyang, Chujun Mansion.
The envoys from Korea were relatives of the King of Han, who were waiting for Han Yi.
It was this person who sent Zheng Guo to Qin.
He has a chubby build, a fair face without a beard, and a graceful demeanor, but the bags under his eyes are slightly swollen, showing that he is a drunk and lustful person, but his eyes still remain somewhat sharp.
He was wearing a dark robe, with the dark green pattern admired by Koreans showing through the inside. He followed Liu Qi's lead and walked to the main hall of the Crown Prince's Mansion. On the way, he quietly stuffed something for Liu Qi and took the opportunity to ask Zhao Huaizhong about his preferences.
As a close follower of Zhao Huaizhong, Liu Qi had already been merciless in collecting things.
But he was not lacking in wisdom. He had already reported the receipt to the palace, so he accepted the gift openly.
Han Yi gave something away, and Liu Qi skillfully reached out to take it. After squeezing it a little, he knew how much it was worth, and put it into his sleeve.
It was so smooth and natural that Han Yi almost suspected that the thing belonged to Liu Qi.
Han Yi immediately asked about the hobbies and taboos of the Crown Prince of Qin. Liu Qi was polite, but only said what he could say and didn't say a word about what he shouldn't.
Han Yi listened lonely all the way and didn't get any useful content.
When he entered the main hall of the Crown Prince's Mansion, the hall was brightly lit.
Zhao Huaizhong was reviewing a document that had been sent to him at short notice, and Han Yi was waiting patiently.
After Zhao Huaizhong put down the bamboo scroll in his hand, Han Yi stepped forward to salute.
"I kept you waiting for a long time."
Zhao Huaizhong's eyes were bright and he bowed slightly. Han Yi hurriedly bowed and returned the greeting: "The prince is busy with state affairs. It is Yi who came to visit and disturbed the prince. I should feel sorry for him."
Zhao Huaizhong motioned for Han Yi to take a seat.
He sat down behind a low seat on one side, with his back straight, shoulders drawn up, and his attitude cautious.
Among the six kingdoms, the Koreans were the most fearful of Qin, but they were also the most serious and careful in everything.
The people of Qin were like a sharp knife hanging above their heads to Han, which could fall down at any time.
This is also the case in history. Koreans regarded Qin as a tiger and a wolf, but they had to be careful. If they had meat at home, they would not eat it, so they would feed it to the tigers first.
The reason is that he is afraid that the tiger will pounce on him when he is hungry, so he would rather be hungry and let the tiger eat first, so that he can get some respite and be temporarily safe.
When the Koreans married Lady Xiuli to King Zhuangxiang of Qin, and later allowed Zheng Guo to join the Qin Dynasty, they all had similar thoughts.
Of course, the Koreans also make a lot of small moves in private. They often target Da Qin, but they rarely dare to bring it to the table.
Han Yi came here, firstly, to inquire about the movements of Da Qin.
Secondly, I want to continue my licking career to the end.
After he sat down, he exchanged some pleasantries and then turned to the topic: "Han Feizi, the Korean legalist saint, said that the prince is a hero of the world. When I come, Han Fei also has a handwritten letter for me to bring to the prince for reading." After saying this, he handed it to the prince.
A bamboo scroll.
As a saint, Han Feizi still had to give him face, so Zhao Huaizhong immediately took it and looked through it.
After a while, he closed the bamboo scroll with a smile on his face.
Han Yi observed the words and said: "I am here on the king's order. I want my Korean Wang Ji (the king's daughter, princess) to enter the Qin Dynasty. I wonder if the prince is interested?"
"Wang Ji Jiyue is the most beautiful woman in Han Dynasty, and she has a reputation for talent. Whenever my king encounters a problem, he should consult Jiyue from time to time. Wang Ji has just turned seventeen this year, and has asked the alchemist to give her instructions. She is exactly the same as the prince.
A good match."
In addition to giving away women, he also gave away mounts, which made Zhao Huaizhong feel annoyed.
Just give gifts, don't try any new tricks.
It is actually a custom for countries to donate women to each other, and it has continued in later generations. Marriage can show friendship and bring closer relations between the two countries.
Especially because of Zhao Huaizhong's identity, it would be of great benefit to the Korean people if he could become his bedmate.
However, saying that Koreans are the most beautiful is probably a boast. As long as she looks dignified, she can be said to be a fairy at this time.
When the Koreans presented Lady Xiuli to King Zhuang Xiang before, they also said that Lady Xiuli was the most beautiful woman in Korea.
Zhao Huaizhong refused: "I have agreed that Jiang Shu, a woman from the Shennong family, will be my concubine, and I am not ready to accept any more side concubines."
Han Yi nodded and looked as normal after being rejected, not feeling embarrassed at all.
He was well prepared before arriving and immediately launched the second round of offensive:
"I have also brought two secret scrolls that have been collected by my Korean clan for hundreds of years. They are ancient cultivation techniques. The prince's talent for cultivation far exceeds that of ordinary people, so he should be delighted by it." After saying this, he asked his entourage to take out two bamboo slips.
Zhao Huaizhong nodded slightly, and Liu Qi stepped forward and took away the bamboo slips.
When Han Yi left after his visit, Zhao Huaizhong thought: The purpose of the Koreans coming here is probably to find out the progress of the repair of Zheng Guo Canal, so as to know for sure how many years there are left for buffering, so that they can make early preparations.
The night is beginning to fall, the moon is bright and the stars are sparse.
There are still many pedestrians on the streets of Xianyang.
After Han Yi left the Crown Prince's Mansion, accompanied by several entourage, he strolled to a bustling street.
They walked up and down the street, sometimes chatting with vendors and asking about prices, and asking whether Korean money could be passed here.
Han Yi also went to Xiao Qin Building for a stroll. When he came out, he looked sluggish, but with a mysterious smile on his face, shaking his head slightly, and seemed to have endless aftertaste.
As the night got darker, Han Yi and his party returned to the Jingqian Hall where he stayed.
"Is there anything you can gain from Yuhou going to see the Crown Prince of Qin?"
When Han Yi came to Qin, there were several Korean officials accompanying him.
He went to visit Zhao Huaizhong, and several accompanying officials went to visit other Qin officials. They came back in the evening to discuss together and summarize the information.
The person speaking in front of me is one of the ministers accompanying Han, who holds the position of internal history in Han.
He is nearly fifty years old, short in stature, with a round face, an impressive big nose, and steady eyes.
Han Yi shook his head: "Qin Chu refused to accept Jiyue as his concubine, but he accepted the two bamboo slips of cultivation."
The Korean internal historian secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and whispered: "Wang Ji Jiyue has the appearance of an immortal and the talent of a saint.
It's better if the Qin people and the prince don't know about it, otherwise they will have to wrong the queen to serve Qin.
If the two countries start a military confrontation, Wang Ji may find it difficult to deal with herself."
Han Yi glanced at the internal history and said: "I came out from the Crown Prince's Mansion and visited various places in Xianyang City. I found many surprises."
He was walking on the street just now, chatting with merchants and asking about prices.
After observing the types of goods sold on the street, it is not a meaningless act to go to Xiao Qinlou to eat seafood.
He is using these details to analyze Daqin's current development and people's livelihood.
The people of Qin were becoming increasingly prosperous. Houses were not closed on the streets at night, and pedestrians could still be seen walking around after dark. They could also earn a lot of money by selling goods at will. Compared with the current state of Han, Han Yi felt a lot of emotion and secretly felt melancholy.
"The prince of Qin is a saint. If he takes charge of Qin the next day, the climate of Qin will probably change."
To be continued...
