In the Huayang Palace, Fu Chu, a junior prince of Chu, was about to leave Xianyang. Therefore, before leaving, he would come to say goodbye to the Empress Dowager Huayang, who was not old but had a very high seniority.
Although the most important task for coming to Qin has been completed today, there are still too many doubts about the prisoners of war in his heart.
Fu Chu wanted to make his last effort before leaving Qin State, hoping to see the mystery of the prisoner of war.
For Huayang Palace, Fu Chu's farewell banquet can be regarded as a family banquet. At this time, there were Empress Dowager Huayang, Mi Chan, Fusu, Xiong Qi and others.
Then when they were drunk, Fu Chu and Xiong Qi came outside the hall with the excuse of sobering up.
"What do you think about the prisoner of war?" Fu Chu saw that there was no one around, and asked Xiong Qi in a low voice.
"You can just treat this matter as if you don't know anything." Xiong Qi replied cautiously.
"Can this happen?" Fu Chu asked in confusion.
"If he is really calculating what you do, no matter what you do, you can't escape. On the contrary, when you are thinking about the actions when you break his calculations, it is very likely that it is what he wants you to do, the more you do
If there are more, the more mistakes you may be. Only by not changing can you deal with his calculations.” Xiong Qidao.
"If this is the case, wouldn't it be a wait for death?" Xiong Qi's answer obviously could not satisfy Fu Chu.
"Then you can try your best to find out the answers, and see if you have any way to break the deadlock. I can only say that." Xiong Qi said.
"It seems that you have really become a Qin person now." Fu Chu looked at his brother in front of him and said in dismay or helplessly.
"In Qin, you can only be from Qin." Xiong Qi said.
"Is that true? That's not necessarily." Fu Chu said.
"You'd better not be too troublesome. I know that among the people who dowed Chan'er, there are yours, but five years have passed, and some things have changed a long time ago." Xiong Qi said.
When Mi Chan and Ying Zheng got married, there were more than a dozen women who were just dowry. Among these people were disciples of the Yin-Yang family and daughters of the nobles of the Chu State.
Among these women, if there were no spies from Chu, Xiong Qi would not believe it anyway.
But spies themselves have unreliable factors, especially female spies.
"You can be your loyal minister of Qin with peace of mind, you don't have to worry about Chu's affairs." Not only did you not get the answer you wanted here, but instead learned a lesson, Fu Chu's mood was obviously not that good.
"I can only say that." Xiong Qi said helplessly.
Xiong Qi's feelings for Chu State were very complicated. His body was filled with the blood of the Chu royal family, but he had never lived in Chu State.
When King Kaoli of Chu was still the crown prince, he served as a hostage in Qin. During this period, King Zhaoxiang of Qin, who was still in power at that time, betrothed his daughter to the crown prince of Chu at that time, and thus Xiong Qi was born.
However, in the later struggle for inheriting the throne of Chu, the Prince of Chu, who was still in Xianyang, fled back to Chu alone with the help of Huang Xie, leaving behind his wife and son.
The Prince of Chu turned into King Kaoli of Chu back then, Huang Xie turned into Chunshen Jun, the Princess of Qin became a widow, and Xiong Qi turned into a man without a father.
Under such circumstances, it is difficult for Xiong Qi to say that he is a Chu country, which is also one of the reasons why the Qin people do not reject him.
But Xiong Qi knew that he had never given up on his Chu bloodline, and he was always waiting for an opportunity.
However, as his understanding of Qin deepened, the persistence in his heart became weaker and weaker.
Because he can't see any possibility of success.
The two half-brothers parted in such a bad mood.
Fortunately, in front of Empress Dowager Huayang and Mi Chan, the two brothers knew that they should maintain the harmony they should have, so they did not affect the proceedings of the banquet.
The banquet dispersed, and the people outside the palace left one after another, while Mi Chan stayed in Huayang Palace.
"This brother of mine is very active." In the bathhouse, Empress Dowager Huayang, who was washing his body with alcohol, suddenly spoke to Mi Chan, who had sunk her whole body in the water.
"Which brother is my aunt talking about?" Mi Chan said with a long wet hair.
"Two." said the Empress Dowager Huayang.
"In their eyes, there is only power, so their minds will naturally be much more active." Mi Chan said indifferently.
"It's good that you know. In the future, there will be less contact than them. In their eyes, it is really hard to say whether you are a relative or a tool to use." Empress Dowager Huayang imitated Mi Chan and sank herself into the water.
As I get older, my skin has become loose, and water is an excellent way to change this situation. Therefore, the Empress Dowager Huayang is becoming more and more fond of taking baths.
"I know." Mi Chan said.
"What are the movements of the women around you?" asked the Empress Dowager Huayang.
"What is my aunt talking about?" Mi Chan said in confusion.
"In Xingle Palace, there are several princesses from Zhao who were sent by King Zhao back then. I heard that Zhao Ji was interested in cultivating them. As for the reason, there were too many Chu people in Xianyang Palace." Empress Dowager Huayang continued .
Even the Empress Dowager Huayang is sometimes confused about the composition of the harem of Xianyang Palace, because to some extent, it is extremely abnormal.
Among the harems of Xianyang Palace, the most crowded were women from Chu, followed by the former Korean women. As for the women from Wei, it would be better not to mention them, and they had almost no sense of existence.
This situation naturally made Zhao Ji dissatisfied.
So Zhao Ji, who was idle, took her ideas to the princesses of Zhao that Ying Zheng gave him back then.
"This kind of thing is not something I should consider. After all, it doesn't matter what others think about this kind of thing. It only depends on the king's preferences." Mi Chan said.
"Like, what is the king's preference?" said Empress Dowager Huayang.
"Aunt, such a question is not something you, the elder, should ask about." Mi Chan said a joking smile.
"I am caring about you. Your dowry is not something you use as a maid." Empress Dowager Huayang said as if nothing had happened, "And the king's descendants are a little less, Fusu and the others are all Born four years ago.”
"Auntie, if people think too much, they will grow old quickly." Mi Chan said leisurely in the face of the question of Empress Dowager Huayang.
"You..." Empress Dowager Huayang was completely speechless at this time.
