Shangguan Wenruo's back looks a little lonely.
After leaving Prince Qin's Mansion, he did not go back directly, but instead visited Liu Yuzhi on the other side.
In the Prime Minister's Mansion, the two of them sat down separately as guest and host.
Seeing him sighing, Liu Yuzhi couldn't help but smile and said, "Brother Shangguan is worried about the emperor?"
Shangguan Wenruo said: "In this matter, it is obvious that the Queen is secretly trying to depose the Emperor while the King is away. As the prime minister, Brother Liu should join me in remonstrating."
The two of them have known each other for many years and have a good personal relationship, so they call each other casually in private.
Hearing this, Liu Yuzhi said with a smile: "I can understand Brother Shangguan's thoughts, but things have already happened, and when the king left, he handed the King Qin Sword to the queen. I can't stop him even if I want to."
"But if the emperor dies, the world will be left without a master, and the hearts of the scholars will deviate from Qin." Shangguan Wenruo said worriedly.
"You are worrying too much." Liu Yuzhi said: "The Shang family has long existed in name only. The world is divided and everyone respects his own master. Just like the people of the Ling Kingdom, they will not listen to the emperor and will only be loyal to the Ling King. This is especially true for the Qin Kingdom. ."
As he spoke, he continued: "Your Majesty once said a very good thing, the people must have land to cultivate and a place to live. What the people want is to live and work in peace and contentment. In this era of great strife, when countries are divided, what the people want to see most is, It is the unification of mountains and rivers, no more frequent wars and no more displacement. Anyone who can achieve this will be an emperor with great achievements."
"Having said that, wouldn't it be more perfect to ask the Shang family to abdicate after the great king's imperial career is completed?" Shangguan Wenruo said.
"What difference does it make?" Liu Yuzhi said: "Now the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty should already know about the emperor's affairs, but until now, no one has said a word. What does this mean? It means that everyone knows about this matter. Hope to see that.”
If Shangguan Wen wasn't smart enough, but he had too much etiquette ideas, he couldn't help but frown after listening to Liu Yuzhi's words.
Liu Yuzhi said no more, but stretched out his hand and said: "Come, brother Shangguan, please give me tea."
A few days later, there was a waterway leading to the imperial capital.
The vast river surface stretches as far as the eye can see, with no end in sight.
There are water birds fluttering along the river.
The waves were rolling and the wind was not very strong.
As the boat swayed slightly, Shang Rui looked at the scenery on the river and couldn't help but said: "As soon as we cross the river, we will almost reach the imperial capital, right?"
The concubine beside him did not speak, but looked at Yang Zhao who was walking quickly.
Sensing the movement, Shang Rui also turned slightly sideways, frowned and said, "Master Yang, it's enough that you don't allow me to show up in the market. Don't you think I also want to see the scenery on the river?"
"Your Majesty's words are serious." Yang Zhao stood still in front of him and said, "Your Majesty is just tired from traveling all the way. Your Majesty, I specially ordered some warm wine to be prepared to relieve your fatigue."
As he spoke, he waved his hand forward slightly.
Following his movements, a green-clad guard from behind immediately stepped forward. In his hand, he was holding a tray. In the tray, there was a ceramic wine bottle and two jade cups.
When he came to Shang Rui, he bowed respectfully and raised his hands high.
Looking at the wine pot and glass in front of him, Shang Rui's Adam's apple slipped, he swallowed hard, and then subconsciously took two steps back: "I, I don't want to drink yet, I understand Master Yang's kindness..."
Yang Zhao remained silent and stared at him coldly.
The green-clothed guard also remained motionless, maintaining the posture of passing the wine.
After a moment, the concubine smiled, and her laughter was like a silver bell. She stepped forward without fear and took the jade cup with her jade hands, "Your Majesty, drink it, it's okay."
"But, my beloved concubine, this wine..." Shang Rui shook his head in horror, no matter how stupid he was, he could see something.
Of course the concubine knew there was something wrong with the wine, but now, what would happen if she didn't drink it?
She still smiled and said with a smile: "Now that the matter is over, what worries does Your Majesty have, and why do you need to do these things?"
As soon as she finished speaking, she drank the wine in one gulp, threw away the jade cup, looked at Yang Zhao and said: "Master Yang, do you think I am really afraid of death? In fact, I should have died long ago, just for a share of Obsession, and I have lived until now.”
She is really beautiful. She is dressed in gorgeous clothes, with her breasts half exposed. She has an alluring appearance, enchanting and charming.
Yang Zhao turned to look at her.
She moved her red lips slightly and continued: "I have already drank this glass of wine. I just hope that I can be buried in Huangshan Mausoleum after I die."
Huangshan Mausoleum, the cemetery of King Chen.
When Shang Rui heard this, his eyes widened immediately, and he looked at his beloved concubine with an incredible expression: "My beloved concubine, you, you..."
The concubine seemed to be laughing at herself, and did not look at Shang Rui or say anything more, but continued to look at Yang Zhao with pleading eyes.
The latter frowned slightly.
Seeing this, the concubine said anxiously: "Can't you even agree to the request of a dying person? If King Qin were here, he would definitely agree, and he would definitely understand."
Hearing this, Yang Zhao hesitated on his expression, paused and said: "Okay, I can promise you, but Huangshan Mausoleum is the tomb of King Chen, and this matter still needs the approval of the king."
"Thank you." The concubine said nothing more or looked at anyone. Instead, she turned around and walked to the railing of the ship. She looked at the river and murmured: "This river view is so beautiful..."
At this moment, she was like a person who had been exhausted physically and mentally for many years and suddenly found relief. Her whole body felt indescribably relaxed.
She was Shang Rui's favorite concubine, but in the end, she asked to be buried in Huangshan Mausoleum before she died. This shows that this complex woman had always loved her husband deeply in her heart, and it had never changed.
A moment later, a painful expression appeared on her face, she clutched her neck tightly, vomited blood and fell to the ground.
A generation of beauties, their fragrance disappears and their beauty dies.
He just died under poisonous wine.
Seeing his charming concubine die like this, Shang Rui screamed in fright, sat down on the ground, and started crawling back on his hands and feet: "I won't drink! I won't drink!"
Yang Zhao frowned and raised his head towards the others behind him.
Everyone understood and immediately stepped forward and surrounded Shang Rui.
The latter was still crawling back and was forced into a corner. At the same time, his voice was trembling and he shook his head in panic: "Don't come over! Whatever you want to do! Don't come over at all -"
No one paid attention to him, and the two of them took out a piece of white silk and wrapped it directly around Shang Rui's neck, one to the left and the other to the right, gradually increasing the pressure on their hands...
After a moment, Shang Rui's eyes widened, his face turned green, and he slumped in the corner.
He stepped forward to investigate, and after confirming that everything was correct, Yang Zhao asked coldly: "Have everyone else dealt with it?"
There was more than just this ship on the river. Other large ships also carried other royal family members. A small leader immediately returned: "Everything has been dealt with. The humble profession has inspected it. Don't worry, sir."
"Well, scuttle the ship." Yang Zhao said concisely.
