night!
Prince's Mansion!
In the study room.
Ying Ziye held a candle and reviewed government affairs.
Since the construction of the Jiubian Town, Meng Tian led an army to defeat the Mauryan Dynasty, and the war has also fallen into a state of anxiety!
"Husband, it's already late at night, it's better to rest early!"
Bai Ying held the hot soup and expressed concern.
When Ying Ziye heard the words, he looked over and took the soup.
"No problem, it's just that right now, the war between Great Qin and the Maurya Dynasty has begun."
"Although there are nine major towns blocking the Hengling Mountains, this battle is just a test between the two sides."
"I'm afraid that the next war will be even more cruel, not to mention that there are still monsters in the north causing trouble."
"As a husband, I really don't dare to slack off for even a moment!"
Bai Ying couldn't help but feel distressed: "I don't know whether this prince is good or bad."
"If this continues, my body will collapse from exhaustion."
"Your Majesty, I am waiting for you to strengthen the royal family!"
"Forehead……"
Ying Ziye looked ashamed and said with a wry smile: "Am I that weak..."
"Don't worry, madam! I'll go and have a rest after I've taken care of the food, fodder and ordnance deployment."
"That's pretty much it."
Bai Ying nodded with satisfaction and was about to leave when he suddenly stopped in front of the study door.
"By the way, husband, I would like to discuss something with you."
"oh?!"
Ying Ziye looked at Bai Ying in confusion and asked, "I wonder what Madam said?"
Bai Ying slowly approached Ying Ziye and said with a slight embarrassment: "Husband... I want... to go with you to conquer the Maurya Dynasty."
"No!"
Ying Ziye said decisively.
"But...husband..."
When Bai Ying wanted to say something more, he was directly interrupted by Ying Ziye.
"Madam, all other matters can be discussed, but this matter must not be discussed."
"Why is this? Although my concubine is not as strong as my husband, I am still capable of protecting myself!"
"I will never cause trouble to my husband!"
Bai Ying explained slightly aggrievedly.
Seeing this, Ying Ziye slowly stood up and hugged Bai Ying into his arms.
"Madam, you misunderstood! That's not what I meant."
"My wife led the women's army and killed the Huns who did not dare to go south to herd horses! How can my husband forget his majestic reputation?"
Bai Ying met Ying Ziye's gaze and said in confusion: "If that's the case, then why would my husband..."
Ying Ziye gently put his finger on Bai Ying's lips and said softly: "But! That was before, now, you are my wife! The love of my life! I will never allow you to be in any danger!"
"Some things are not as simple as Madam thinks! And the Maurya Dynasty's methods are not weaker than those of Great Qin!"
"I even have a vague feeling that there will be a more terrifying existence behind the Maurya Dynasty!"
"The most likely thing is that it's a heavenly being!!!"
"Heaven???"
Bai Ying exclaimed and looked at Ying Ziye in shock.
At this moment, Bai Ying finally understood why Ying Ziye had repeatedly refused to let the sisters accompany him to Hengling.
"But husband, husband and wife are one body. If you die, we will never live alone!"
As he said this, Bai Ying's eyes began to sparkle with tears.
"Silly girl, how could I die!"
"I want to see all the glory in the world with you and give birth to a lot of children."
"You talkative! Who wants to have a bunch of children with you?"
Bai Ying let out an angry sound, showing his shyness.
"Hahaha!"
"Then let's see who is willing to..."
"you dare!"
Bai Ying angrily pinched Ying Ziye's waist with his hands.
"Ouch, madam, please spare my life, madam, please spare my life!"
"Let's see if you still dare to talk nonsense!" Bai Ying said proudly.
"I don't dare anymore! Xiaosheng doesn't dare anymore!"
Ying Ziye bowed his head and begged for mercy, flirting with Bai Ying.
"snort!"
"That's pretty much it."
When Bai Ying thought he had won, Ying Ziye used his palms slightly to hold him tightly in his arms.
At this moment, Bai Ying was quite sensible and did not break away, quietly enjoying this moment.
"Husband, you must come back safely!"
Bai Ying nestled in Ying Ziye's arms, her voice full of worry.
"Um."
"I promise you! I will come back safe and sound!"
Ying Ziye responded heavily.
All of a sudden!
The sound of footsteps suddenly sounded outside the study.
"Your Highness, the Eighteenth Young Master has something to ask for."
The maid's voice suddenly sounded outside the study.
Ying Ziye and Bai Ying looked at each other, and they both saw doubts in each other's eyes.
"How could Mr. Hu Hai suddenly come when the night is over?" Bai Ying asked doubtfully.
Ying Ziye shook his head and said thoughtfully: "My eighteenth brother has always been thoughtful, I'm afraid he has some plans for coming here this time!"
"That's all, go and take a look and you'll find out."
"Go and invite the eighteenth brother into the main hall!"
"Here!"
As the maid left, Ying Ziye also said with concern: "Okay, Madam, you go and rest first!"
"Let me see what happened to my eighteenth brother."
"Um."
Bai Ying nodded slightly and said, "If anything happens, husband, just call me."
"Um."
…
It's time!
Ying Ziye came quickly.
As they approached the main hall, the maid came quickly and said: "His Royal Highness, the 18th Young Master Hu Hai..."
Hearing this, Ying Ziye looked towards the main hall in confusion.
At this time, Hu Hai was kneeling in the main hall.
"His Royal Highness, the Eighteenth Young Master didn't know why, but he knelt down in the main hall and waited as soon as he came in."
"My servant saw that the 18th Young Master seemed to be crying."
Hearing this, Ying Ziye became more and more confused.
"I understand, please step back first!"
"No one is allowed to come near without my order!"
"Here!"
As the maid bowed and left, Ying Ziye also walked quickly towards the main hall.
"Eighteenth brother, what are you..."
Suddenly hearing the voice behind him, Hu Hai suddenly turned around and bowed down in tears: "Bago! Save me!"
"Your Highness, save me!!!"
After saying this, Hu Hai hit the ground hard with a thud.
Seeing this, Ying Ziye quickly stepped forward to help him: "Eighteenth brother, what's going on?"
"Get up and talk!"
but!
No matter how much Ying Ziye helped him, Hu Hai remained indifferent.
"Bago! I have no second thoughts about my brother!"
"Although I have done many wrong things before, I already know that I was wrong. I hope Bago will spare me this time because of my deep brotherhood and my young age."
"In the future, my brother will definitely assist Ba Ge with all his strength."
After saying this, Hu Hai bowed down again.
"Eighteenth brother, no one is wrong. The matter has passed."
"You and I are brothers. Knowing your mistakes can greatly improve things!"
Hu Hai's eyes flashed with tears when he heard this. With Ying Ziye's help, he slowly stood up.
"Bago, have you really forgiven me?"
Ying Ziye nodded slightly and said, "Of course! Can you tell Brother Ba now what happened?"
Hu Hai nodded and told Ying Ziye the whole story.
"I also ask Bage to intercede with my father on behalf of my brother. I have no intention of competing with Bage for the throne."
"If my father insists on sending my brother to govern the counties, I hope that my brother will give me advice. I am willing to serve as a soldier. Even if I die on the battlefield, I will have no regrets!"
"Please also ask Bago to fulfill my wish!"
Hu Hai's words were full of sincerity. Even though Ying Ziye knew his character and character well, he couldn't help but be almost deceived by his appearance at this moment.
"Eighteenth brother, you... why are you doing this!" Ying Ziye said helplessly.
"Please also ask Bago to fulfill my wish!"
Hu Hai was about to bow down again, but was suddenly supported by Ying Ziye.
"That's it!"
"I will mention this matter to my father."
"Thank you, Brother."
Hu Hai cried with joy, as if he had been reborn.
"Okay, it's getting late today."
"Go back and have a good rest first!"
"Here."
"Brother, please retire first."
Hu Hai gently wiped the tears on his cheeks, bowed his hands to Ying Ziye, and bowed back.
Ying Ziye looked at Hu Hai's figure disappearing under the night, with a hint of contemplation between his brows.
"It seems that my father's suspicion is not unreasonable."
"My eighteenth brother really doesn't dare to be idle for a moment."
…
The next day!
The sky is slightly bright.
Outside Zhangtai Palace.
Li Xin and Li Si have been waiting for orders for a long time.
It was not until the First Emperor finished dressing that Li Xin and Li Si bowed and stepped into the palace.
"Your Majesty, the 18th Young Master went to the Prince's Mansion again last night after the Prime Minister left."
When the First Emperor heard this, his brows showed no signs of fluctuation, and he looked towards Li Si.
"Li Si, what do you think of what happened last night?"
Li Si bowed his hands and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, I believe that no matter what the Eighteenth Young Master thinks, it doesn't matter anymore."
The First Emperor's eyes narrowed slightly, and while he was deep in thought, the eunuch who served in the palace quickly stepped forward, bowed and said, "Your Majesty, Your Highness the Crown Prince wishes to see you."
"Xuan!"
"Here!"
All of a sudden!
Ying Ziye strolled into the palace.
When his eyes fell on Li Si and Li Xin, Ying Ziye already knew what was going on.
"My son, I pay my respects to my father."
"Get flat!"
"Thank you, Father."
The First Emperor slowly sat down on the dragon chair and said calmly, "Ye'er, why are you here to see me?"
Ying Ziye nodded slightly and said, "Father, I am here just because of my eighteenth brother."
"What do you mean?" the First Emperor said majestically.
"Father, I believe that the eighteenth younger brother has not done anything beyond the pale. Since the eighteenth younger brother is unwilling, there is no need to force him."
"It seems Ye'er is very confident!"
The First Emperor was very interesting.
Ying Ziye bowed his hands and said, "My son, I am ashamed."
"My son, I believe that those who have achieved great things since ancient times should not be under the protection of their father."
"Er Chen believes that he can handle this matter."
The First Emperor looked at Ying Ziye intently, a flash of approval flashed across his majestic face, and he nodded and said: "In that case, let's remove all the black ice platforms lurking outside Haier's mansion!"
"Whether Haier's move is true or false, I am willing to give him another chance."
"Here!"
"My son, thank you very much, Father!"
The First Emperor waved his hands calmly and said, "Ye'er, it's about the Hengling Mountains. How are the preparations going?"
"Reporting to the emperor, my son and I have been continuously transporting grain, grass, ordnance, etc. to the important towns on the nine sides."
"Um!"
The First Emperor nodded slightly and said, "I will leave this matter to you, so I can rest assured!"
"This battle will definitely bring out the might of the Qin Kingdom!"
"Bring out the majesty of Great Qin!!!"
"My son obeys the decree!!!"
