In the extremely luxurious palace, the lights reflected Ruan Guifei's charming face and extremely graceful body. Although she was not young, the passage of time had made her even more charming, which made Prince Zhao Zhuo's heart flutter.
Unable to restrain himself, he actually stepped forward and hugged the other person, feeling the warmth that penetrated his bones.
Concubine Ruan's pretty face sank, she pushed the man away with all her strength, and said sternly: "You are so brave, you dare to belittle me, what crime do you deserve?"
Zhao Zhuo smiled like a rogue and said indifferently: "You are just the late king's concubine. Now that the old guy is dead, can you still be proud of your favor? So don't show your authority to me. I am the prince. You
You can’t do anything to me.”
Concubine Ruan said angrily: "But I am also your father's woman. You are doing the following and being treasonous. If I tell him, you will be miserable."
Zhao Zhuo shrugged his shoulders, his handsome face full of disapproval, "It seems you are still stubborn. Even if you are my father's old friend, so what if you were sacrificed to the late king, my uncle, by him?
That dead old thing has been playing with you for more than ten years. Will my father still cherish you? So don't dream about it. He has many women and has forgotten you a long time ago."
"But your father clearly promised me that he would make me queen, and he will definitely keep his promise..."
After saying these words, Concubine Ruan was already lacking in confidence. It was obvious that what Zhao Zhuo said was true. There were few men who could be trusted. If Zhao Hanting had his heart, wouldn't he tell the world today and make her the queen? After all, Ji Xue
That bitch was given the title of princess.
"Hahaha..." Zhao Zhuo couldn't help laughing, then shook his head and said disdainfully: "You are such a big man, how can you be so childish? What is your identity? The late king's concubine, then how did the late king die?
You were killed by my father and then blamed on Eunuch Sun and others. If I make you the queen, wouldn't it be equivalent to telling the world that all this was a conspiracy and that he killed the former king in order to get the king's kingdom and concubine?
A sinner through the ages?"
"Ah..." Concubine Ruan exclaimed, beginning to feel that the situation was serious.
Zhao Zhuo said gloomily: "In other words, my father has done his best by not killing you. He is probably thinking of the friendship that he has had for many years. But you have to be careful. Don't talk too much or offend him."
If you are not happy, you will not end well."
Concubine Ruan's face turned pale, and fear surged into her heart. She thought to herself, Zhao Hanting could kill even his own brother, so what could he not do? She quickly grabbed the other person's arm and said in a trembling voice: "What should I do?
, Prince, you have to save me."
With a hint of pride in his eyes, Zhao Zhuo hugged the girl and began to be dishonest, whispering in Concubine Ruan's ear: "Don't worry, as long as you follow me, I guarantee you will be unscathed..."
Concubine Ruan Guifei had already guessed that this guy had bad intentions, but now she needed a new supporter and had no choice. She decided to take revenge on the old guy. Didn't you spoil that little bitch? Then I will stay with the prince. Since
After deciding what to do, her attitude changed drastically, as if she was paralyzed. She glanced at Zhao Zhuo with charming eyes and cooed: "Then who do you want to talk to?"
"Of course, I will definitely protect you." Zhao Zhuo was overjoyed. His long-cherished wish for many years has finally come true. This is the late king's concubine. In the past, she was always aloof, and he only had to look up to her with greed. Now he can experience it for himself.
.
The cold moonlight shines on the Zhao Kingdom Palace. It is clearly a ruthless and chaotic place. However, there are always people who want to take over by any means. The Zhao family seems to have succeeded, but there are still strong enemies who are gradually approaching half of the country.
Ling Wang Qiuyu was regarded as a thorn in their side and a thorn in their flesh.
For several days, the Feiyun Army achieved great victories one after another, severely inflicting heavy losses on several anti-king forces, capturing more than a dozen cities, and completely occupying almost half of the Zhao Kingdom's territory. It was as if they were equally matched with the new dynasty. This caused Zhao Hanting a huge headache, and he immediately dispatched the famous imperial general Dongfang Ji.
He led a large army to confront it, and the two sides began an unprecedented battle in the open space outside Huyang City. Both sides suffered casualties, and they set up camp and were in a stalemate.
Qiu Yu personally led an army of more than 100,000 people to confront the imperial army here, while Ji Yun led another team to detour south and continue the battle. This girl grew up very quickly and was like a rare general.
The continuous fighting exhausted the officers and soldiers of both sides, and they had a truce with each other for several days. Qiu Yu was not in a hurry. He knew clearly in his heart that Zhao Hanting controlled the elite troops of Zhao State. They were powerful and definitely not easy to deal with. And his team
Although there are many people, they are too mixed, including bandits, surrendered officers and soldiers, and soldiers recruited from various places. In terms of training, they are definitely not as good as the regular army.
At present, the Feiyun Army has more than 300,000 members and has occupied half of the Zhao Kingdom. Its achievements have exceeded Qiu Yu's expectations. Moreover, after the death of King Zhao and Zhao Hanting succeeding him, it will be very difficult for Jiangshan Sheji to completely destroy the Zhao Kingdom.
Difficult, after all, Zhao Hanting is a great hero of the generation, more talented and strategic than the previous king, and he has recruited many masters of the Zhao Kingdom, so it is very difficult to deal with him.
Therefore, there is a long road ahead, and there is no point in being anxious. Qiu Yu thinks that we should play slowly and steadily. Ji Yun, who is also a high-level player, must not rush forward like he did before, otherwise one wrong move will lead to the whole game being lost, so he must be cautious.
On the morning of this day, a mysterious team appeared outside the Feiyun Army camp. There were probably hundreds of people, all riding various ferocious demonic beasts. This attracted the attention of the camp members, and a military attache rushed over with hundreds of soldiers.
, blocking the way of those people.
The swords and guns pointed at the intruder with a cold light, and the military attache in the camp said solemnly: "Who is this intruder? How dare you break into the Feiyun Army's camp without permission?"
The leader of the team was a young man in a white robe, with handsome features and a noble temperament. He turned out to be a woman disguised as a man. He spoke in a soft female voice, "We are envoys from the State of Qin, asking to see His Highness King Ling. As for who I am."
Well, if you give him this brocade box, Prince Ling will know it as soon as he sees it."
The woman's slender fingers were like jade. She took out a purple brocade box from the ring, which was in the shape of a long and thin strip. The old woman who followed her took it and handed it to the camp military attache. The old woman was wearing a black robe, her eyes were like lightning, and
When he returned to the woman, he acted like a personal guard.
The military attache subconsciously felt that the woman was by no means an ordinary person. Her temperament was so noble that people dared not look at her directly, and the old woman was even more frightening. She must have been highly cultivated. He couldn't help but show more respect and said in a deep voice.
: "Please wait a moment, I will go over and report to His Highness Prince Ling."
The white Chinese army tent is extremely spacious and can accommodate dozens of people. At this moment, Qiu Yu is sitting on the imperial chair behind the desk, discussing the next step with General Sima Yanran and other generals. Suddenly, he hears a military attaché coming to report.
, saying that an envoy from the State of Qin had arrived, and presented a brocade box, which made him feel moved, and asked hurriedly, "Didn't the visitor identify himself?"
The military attache said: "Back to King Ling, that person didn't say who she was, but she was a young woman, very beautiful. She also said that you would know who she is by opening the brocade box and taking a look."
