Zhao Jia naturally knew nothing about the turbulent situation outside and the plots of all parties. His daily life remained the same. In addition to accompanying Concubine Yan to the small forest, he would check in at Lanchi Palace every day.
Today is no exception, I came here early to wait.
It seems that today's court meeting has been postponed again... Zhao Jia knelt down beside the table and closed his eyes silently. He has been used to this situation these days. The Qin Dynasty has held very frequent court meetings during this period, perhaps because of the relationship between Qin and Han The war between the two countries is related.
War is never an easy job. You need to prepare for troops, horses, food, grass, and luggage, and you even need to pay attention to the trends of various countries.
Zhao Jia is also very curious about the outcome of this battle. He wonders whether Chang'an Juncheng will still rebel like in the original work.
"Da da da~"
Just as Zhao Jia was thinking about these things, there was a clear and loud sound of high heels hitting the floor from the door of the hall.
The footsteps were a bit urgent. It seemed that Zhao Ji was not in a good mood... Zhao Jia opened her eyes and looked towards the direction where the footsteps came from. She saw a gorgeous and gorgeous woman walking in. She had He has a delicate and fair face with oval seeds, long black hair tied behind his head, bound by exquisite goldware, a pair of phoenix eyes, with curved eyebrows and thin lips tightly pursed.
She was wearing a long red palace dress, followed by several maids, her hands folded on her lower abdomen, and she had a breathtaking aura as she walked.
The visitor was naturally Zhao Ji, the Queen Mother of Qin.
She had a frosty look on her face. As soon as she entered the palace, she raised her hand and waved: "Get out!"
The maids on the side naturally did not dare to say anything. They lowered their heads and exited the palace like emotionless robots.
Zhao Gao glanced at Zhao Jia who was sitting on his knees and withdrew silently. He knew that Zhao Jia would coax Zhao Ji. He said that his understanding of Zhao Jia was changing every day. He had never thought about it. Zhao Jia, the eldest son of the Zhao Kingdom, is so good at insulting women and is so sly.
What about being virtuous and upright?
After all the attendants had withdrawn, Zhao Jia slowly stood up and began to show off: "The Queen Mother seems to be even more beautiful today than yesterday. The foreign ministers almost didn't recognize the Queen Mother."
He did not ask what happened at the court meeting, but praised Zhao Ji's beauty.
Don’t reach out to hit the smiling person.
During this time together, Zhao Jia has roughly figured out Zhao Ji's temperament. This woman has a good love brain and needs coaxing and a sense of ritual. It seems a little difficult to get along with her, but in fact she has found an entry point and is easy to communicate with.
Zhao Ji didn't speak. She glanced sideways at the talkative Zhao Jia and remained silent.
Zhao Jia realized that she had failed in her trick, and smiled awkwardly: "If the Queen Mother is really in a bad mood, just give me a good beating, but don't make yourself angry."
"Why did Aijia beat you? Could it be that in your mind, Aijia is such an unreasonable person?"
Zhao Ji's beautiful eyes narrowed, she stared at Zhao Jia and asked:
"Or do you think the Ai family just likes to mess around?"
"Of course not. On the contrary, I have never seen such a reasonable person as the Queen Mother."
Zhao Jia shook his head and then continued: "As the biological mother of the current King of Qin, the Queen Mother has a vengeance on the world. She could have done whatever she wanted, but the Queen Mother did not do that. Instead, she was extremely self-restrained. This strict self-discipline is what today's There are few people in the world who can compare.”
Zhao Ji's family knew about her own affairs, but she never felt that she was self-denying. She was jealous and longing in her heart, but Lu Buwei never took her to heart. To Lu Buwei, she might just be a useless and miserable woman. He might spend the rest of his life in this deep palace.
Thinking of this, she suddenly felt that everything was meaningless.
Zhao Ji said expressionlessly: "How much do you know about the Ai family? How much do you know about the Ai family?"
"I don't know, if the Queen Mother is willing to talk, I might be a qualified listener."
Zhao Jia's eyes moved slightly and he probed.
Zhao Ji looked at Zhao Jia and suddenly sneered: "Most of you men are hypocritical people. When they use you, they just talk sweet words. When you are not needed, they end the relationship without any nostalgia for the old relationship. All I have in my heart is power and status!"
"Don't Her Majesty think this statement is too one-sided?"
Zhao Jia's expression remained unchanged and he retorted.
Zhao Ji raised her eyebrows and shouted angrily: "One-sided? You men are all the same. When you follow the Ai family, why don't you want to use the Ai family's power to protect you?"
"Whether the Queen Mother believes it or not, I have never had this idea while following the Queen Mother."
Zhao Jia looked solemn and said in a deep voice.
Zhao Ji didn't listen at all and firmly believed that what she thought was correct: "You know whether it is yes or no."
"Of course I like power, but I won't rely on women to gain power. My feelings towards the Queen Mother are not that complicated. Maybe I had that idea at the beginning, but after getting along with her for this period of time, I feel that the Queen Mother is just A poor woman."
Zhao Jia's expression softened slightly and he whispered softly.
Poor woman?
Zhao Ji was stunned when she heard this. She didn't expect that Zhao Jia would dare to say that. An unspeakable feeling came to her heart, like someone untying the scar of a wound, which gave her an unspeakable sense of shame. Without thinking, he slapped Zhao Jia in the face.
"Pa~"
Zhao Jia firmly grasped Zhao Ji's hand, looked at Zhao Ji calmly, and said slowly: "With the power of the Queen Mother, she can have as many men as she wants. Why should we always linger on the past years and live like this?" Is it really interesting?"
"open!"
Zhao Ji glared at Zhao Jia and scolded angrily.
"Isn't it pitiful to fall in love with a man who doesn't love you?"
Zhao Jia looked at Zhao Ji with sympathy and said without mercy, if you want to get into the heart of a widow, you must first tear off her disguise.
Zhao Ji's disguise was so poor that it couldn't even be called a disguise.
Hearing this, Zhao Ji's brows became a bit sinister, and she said coldly: "Do you believe that the Ai family will let someone chop off your head?"
"I believe that the power of the Queen Mother can easily erase me from the world, but in this case, who else in the world really cares about the Queen Mother? If the Queen Mother wants to kill even people like me, then kill her."
Zhao Jia said very calmly, with an expression that looked through the world.
When Zhao Ji heard this, her expression also changed. She thought of Zhao Jia's past and every detail of these days, pursed her lips, and after a moment, said slowly: "In your mind, the Ai family is so Is it pitiful?"
After saying that, she smiled to herself.
She had never heard such words from others, but did she really not know that she was pitiful?
She just didn't want to admit it.
