"The Empress Dowager Zhao was naturally emotional when she heard what Chulong said. Although she loves her daughter, she must make long-term plans for her.
So Chulong asked Queen Mother Zhao, from the founding of the Zhao Kingdom to the present day, apart from the direct lineage of the monarch, are there any other princes who have continued down? Not only in the Zhao Kingdom, but in other vassal states, are there any other royal families who have a smooth and good death?
The Empress Dowager Zhao was horrified when she heard this. Of course she knew. The strife between the royal family was much more tragic than that of ordinary people.
Chulong also said, Queen Mother, you love your youngest son Chang'an Jun so much that you gave him the richest fiefdom in the country, and you even gave him all the best treasures. Since you are still here, you can protect him. If there is
One day you are gone, who can protect him?
Even if the current king can take care of brotherhood, what about the next king? All the glory and wealth you give him will bring disaster to his life.
After hearing this, Queen Mother Zhao was very worried and asked Chulong if there was any way to keep her young son safe.
Chu Long said, "Now there is an excellent opportunity in front of you. Qin soldiers are attacking in large numbers. If you want to protect Zhao State, you must borrow troops from Qi State. Let Chang'an Lord go to Qi State as a hostage. This is
A great achievement.
The reason why those princes in the past did not die well was because they had no merit in the country but possessed too much wealth. However, Lord Chang'an has such merit that neither the king nor the ministers dare to forget. This is equivalent to giving him a
The amulet can keep him safe throughout his life.
So the Empress Dowager Zhao ordered people to prepare carriages and horses overnight to send her youngest son to Qi State."
Zheng Wuji originally wanted to settle a score with Xu Chunjun, but he listened unknowingly.
"Did Qi really send troops?" Zheng Wuji asked.
"That's natural." Xu Chunjun smiled softly. There was no light in the room, and her snow-white face looked like a pear blossom in the dim twilight. "So I told my wife, I don't want to embarrass you, but for long-term plans. Between parents
My son has a far-reaching plan, I just stand from my wife’s point of view and think about it the same way as she does.”
"Humph! Stop preaching to me!" Zheng Wuji suddenly realized that he and Xu Chunjun were not the same group.
"I'm just telling you a story." Xu Chunjun raised his eyebrows slightly, his eyes moving, and his beauty came naturally.
"Humph!" Zheng Wuji turned his face away from her, and only said, "Don't expect to be able to control me, go ahead and dream about your dreams!"
Then he walked out quickly.
When they arrived outside, they saw Lu Shen and the others standing there, as if they were ready to rush into the room at any time.
Seeing him was like seeing a ghost.
After leaving the house, I saw the servants in the courtyard standing at the foot of the steps, as if they were ready for help at any time.
Zheng Wuji was even more furious, "Is he a thief?!"
Liu Xixi was detained by Fang, and he had to be left alone.
But because I hadn’t eaten, my stomach was screaming with hunger, and I couldn’t bear to eat, so I just drank the two plates of leftover snacks on the table.
After eating two bites, I choked, threw the snack away in anger, put on my clothes and went out.
The weather was not extremely cold at this time, so he wore a light coat and sat on a horse, looking at the lanterns lit on both sides of the market, and couldn't help but shake his head and laugh.
He really made that woman mad. It was bustling and lively outside, and there were gold selling dens everywhere, so why should he hide in his room and sulk and drink cold wine?
Although the scenery of Dongdu is good, compared with the bustling and bustling capital, it is still a bit inferior to the capital city.
Zheng Wuji was a man who knew nothing about eating, drinking, and having fun.
Guyi
He had been away from the capital for a long time and finally came back, so naturally he wanted to have a lot of fun.
It's just that I originally planned to rest at home before coming out tomorrow, but I didn't want to get so sulky.
"Uncle, where should we go first?" Xiaoshun asked, holding the horse.
"Let's get drunk first," Zheng Wuji said. "At this time, their goose wine is just right. It is most delicious when paired with braised crispy hooves and dried duck lettuce."
Xiaoshun led the horse and walked all the way to the Drunken House with a Pot.
Zheng Wuji got off the horse and as soon as he walked to the door, he was stopped by the shopkeeper.
"Uncle Zheng, you haven't been here for a long time, how have you been these days?" The shopkeeper greeted Zheng Wuji with a smile on his face.
"Didn't I go to Dongdu? I just came back today." Zheng Wuji also replied with a smile.
He noticed that the shopkeeper seemed to have a lot of respect for him now. He probably knew that his family's situation was much better than before, so he quickly came up to flatter him.
"I don't know if you came here to find someone or on your own?" the shopkeeper asked again.
"Just me, pick me a clean seat." Zheng Wuji replied casually.
"I wonder if the meal is ready for you, or on credit?" the shopkeeper asked again.
Zheng Wuji couldn't help but feel a little unhappy, wondering if these people were all infected by Xu Chunjun, why are they more verbose than the other? He said impatiently: "Chang Gui, what are you doing? Although I usually pay on credit, I don't owe anything at all.
Do you want me to leave? Am I still unable to afford a meal from your family?"
The shopkeeper had a smile on his face, but his body blocked Zheng Wuji from letting him in. He said in a low voice: "That's not the case. Of course I know you can afford it. Not to mention that you can afford it, just let our restaurant
It can be done down here. But your eldest grandma has told us before that we will never give you credit. If she borrows money from you, she will never pay it back."
"What?!" Zheng Wuji couldn't help but raise his voice, causing everyone around him to look over, "How dare she?! Why do you listen to her?!"
The shopkeeper still laughed along with him and said in a good voice: "What grandma said makes sense. Besides, she is the head of the house now..."
Zheng Wuji didn't bother to talk to him anymore, he just flicked his sleeves and left.
The shopkeeper said from behind: "Sir, please go slowly and come back another day."
Zheng Wuji went to several restaurants in a row, but was rejected by them all. When he got angry, he wanted to gamble. Wouldn't he be rich if he won the bet?
What was annoying was that the gambling house refused to give him money on credit, saying that it was Xu Chunjun's promise.
"Damn it! This damn woman has blocked my way!" Zheng Wuji stood on the bustling streets of the capital and gritted his teeth.
If he can't eat, drink and have fun, what's the point of living?!
At this moment, an acquaintance came over and greeted with a smile: "Brother Zheng, when did you return to the capital?"
Zheng Wuji was also happy when he saw him. This person was none other than Liu Zongrui, who they usually hung out with.
"I just came back today." Zheng Wuji said with a smile, "What are you busy with now?"
"What can I be busy with? Just wandering around all day." Liu Zongrui said with a smile, "You haven't eaten yet? Let's go have a drink first, and I'll be the host, so I'll take care of you."
What he said played into Zheng Wuji's mind, and the two of them walked side by side to find a restaurant to drink.
