King Ying Yue of Qin personally conquered Beihu, and Queen Qin took care of the affairs of the court. Beihu gradually retreated hundreds of miles, and agriculture temporarily recovered. Ying Yue was particularly surprised and appreciative of Qin Queen Xuanyi's move to let the soldiers retire and return to their fields. He was extremely satisfied, and finally realized that what Xuanyi usually said was for the court, the country, and the great righteousness.
The relationship between the emperor and the empress was very good. Troops temporarily stationed abroad also gradually withdrew.
Since the Qin State promoted agriculture and revitalized the economy, people's lives have improved, farmland and water conservancy have become increasingly prosperous, commerce has become increasingly prosperous, and the national treasury has become increasingly abundant.
The second son of King Qin, Ying Wei, is also the beloved son of King Qin Ying Yue Xuanyi. Because when he was born, he cried like thunder and punched and kicked him. Qin Mugong loved him very much and said that he would become a great weapon in the future and gave him the name "Yue Lei". Because Ying Yue was also influenced by Qin Mugong, he had to fight in the north and south after taking the throne, and he was quite martial. I love my second son Yingwei even more, he is very knowledgeable in the art of war, and he is bold and courageous. Yan was weak, so he sent his second son Ying Wei to destroy Yan and return to Qin. The King of Qin was overjoyed and gave his second son Ping Yan as a reward. From then on, Ping Yan's palace was full of banquets, singing and dancing, and doing all kinds of evil.
Beihu had some details hidden in Prince Pingyan's palace, and informed Beihu of the situation. After receiving this information, Marshal Beihu hatched a plan and together with Qin's two sons, they defeated the Wei and rebelled.
Jin Shu said: "My father is tyrannical and does not care about the country. Although he unified China, the people's hearts were scattered. The young son is brave, defeated Yan and conquered Zhao, and made great achievements. It is suitable for him to establish a king. I, Beihu, will strongly support you in becoming king." Great cause. Let’s work together on a certain day and month in Tianhai.”
The second son of Qin received Beihu's brocade book and felt that Beihu knew his heart and was eager to succeed to the throne. On the surface, he indulged in drinking, singing and dancing, but in fact he stepped up his military training and secretly planned to succeed his father.
King Qin's body was getting weaker and weaker. He recalled that he had spent his whole life fighting in the north and south. When he was critically ill, he had no heirs by his side. He was serving soup and was filled with emotion. Said to Queen Xuan Yi of Qin:
"I should be a king with great ambitions and hegemony, but when my body is getting weak, I don't have any heirs to serve me. How sad!" Empress Qin Xuanyi laughed and said: "Emperor, it is normal for you to be alone. Originally, your heirs are Not much, you have a filial and kind eldest son, Ren Wusu, who was exiled by you, and a violent tempered second son who only cares about the future. Where can you get a son who is filial to you? You can conquer the world, dominate the mountains and rivers, have great achievements in your body, and have great achievements in the future, you will be content. Bar!"
"Two sons, two sons, only the second son can entrust the succession to the throne!" King Qin secretly ordered Xuan Yi, and Queen Qin Xuan Yi also knew King Qin's intentions.
Xuan Yi missed her eldest son in her heart, recalling that she stayed in the Qin Palace and was the queen. However, the scene of the massacre of her mother and family never disappeared from her mind, and would be triggered from time to time. The deep hatred that destroyed her family and clan always came into her mind in the dead of night, keeping her awake at night.
King Qin Ying was full of youthful spirit and dared to brave the disapproval of the world. He bravely saved her under such circumstances, which made Xuan Yi unforgettable. King Qin Ying Yue was her savior, and he repaid his life-saving grace with his life. He became her husband and her king. However, Mou Gong's cruelty made her hate this huge palace. King Qin Ying Yue was in charge of the affairs of the state, and the war never ceased. Therefore, she has never delved into her inner thoughts as a woman who escaped from the Chu Kingdom. Xuanyi, who is maturing day by day, often feels unprecedented pain, and misses her homeland and her family more and more deeply.
Many years ago, King Ying Yue of Qin, who had just succeeded to the throne, was extremely tired and just wanted to take off his clothes and rest for a while. Said to Xuanyi:
"Xuan Yi, I'm too tired. I want to take a good rest! If there are any officials who ask to see you, please refuse me. If you have to see me, just send him away with me."
Ying Yue rested and didn't mention it.
Suddenly someone reported outside, "There is an envoy from Chu who wants to see you!"
When Xuan Yi heard the word "Chu", his heart was shocked. "Envoy of Chu?" Looking back, she saw that King Qin Ying Yue was sleeping soundly, and she couldn't bear to disturb him.
Xuan Yi changed her clothes and moved solemnly to the main hall.
He is an envoy from Chu State! Queen Qin Xuanyi was a little nervous, but also felt a little close.
"What's your name? What's the big reason why you came to Qin?" Xuan Yi tried to ask boldly.
"Peng Kunmai."
"Peng? Do you have the same surname as the King of Chu?"
"I am Peng Kunmai, the son of the Great King of Chu." The Chu envoy approached the Queen of Qin and said, "My father wants me to understand the conditions of the Qin people. I heard that there are Chu people living in the Qin Palace?"
Queen Qin Xuanyi was so frightened that her whole body trembled. Quickly screen back left and right.
"Who are you?" Queen Qin asked softly.
"I am the son of the King of Chu. Are you a woman from the southwestern tribe of Chu who has been exiled to the Chu Palace?"
Empress Qin was speechless and burst into tears.
Peng Kunmai, who was still very young at this time, was frightened and held the shoulders of Queen Qin Xuanyi tightly. Xuan Yi couldn't control it and sobbed softly. He grabbed a glass of strong wine on the table and drank it in one gulp. Afterwards, he passed out drunk.
"Queen of the Celestial Dynasty, Queen of the Celestial Dynasty!" Peng Kunmai, who was still young, was so frightened that his legs weakened and he kept shouting. He gently picked up the Queen of Heaven, walked into the side palace, and laid her flat in the brocade tent in the palace.
"She must be Miss Xuanyi who lives in Qin Palace!" Peng Kunmai thought. After Peng Kunmai succeeded to the throne of Chu, he often thought of the past visit to Qin.
........
Queen Qin Xuanyi's thoughts finally came back.
Now, if the second son succeeds to the throne in the future, he may be more aggressive than others.
Today the King of Qin mentioned the violence of his second son, and Queen Xuan Yi of Qin had no intention of staying in the palace. I also thought that Princess E Pei and his wife were in Chu, and they should return home soon. Princess Liehui once told her that after the fire in Qiyun Mountain, the mountain was in ruins. Has the vitality been restored to this day?
One day, she took a palace maid out of the palace to understand the current situation of Qiyun Mountain.
Along the way, we found Qiyun Mountain. The vegetation was sparse in the south, and the burn marks could still be seen. Even if there were some small trees and bushes, they were trees reborn from the ruins. The other three sides of Qiyun Mountain are still lush and green. Empress Qin shook his head and sighed: The disasters that war has brought to mankind and nature are too numerous to describe!
Empress Qin took the palace maiden to the eastern foothills of Qiyun Mountain and found a house under the shade of green pines and cypresses. "Dogs barked in the deep lanes, and cocks croaked on top of the mulberry trees." It was very harmonious and peaceful. Empress Qin and the palace maiden approached this farmhouse. The closer they got, the more grand they felt. The surrounding scenery is beautiful, with smoke rising from the roof, a fence in front, and a gurgling river. All kinds of flowers and trees around the fence are mixed with each other, red, yellow, blue and green, and the colors are mixed.
Opening the small bamboo door on the guardrail, a house with four rooms and three rooms stands in front of you. There is a couplet hanging at the gate: "The mountains are high and the water is far away, and Longyan is sitting in the temple, and the door is low and the house is cold and hidden, and people are wandering around the rivers and lakes." The horizontal line is: "The clouds are strange and the fog is beautiful." The roof is made of indigo roof tiles and the beams are arranged symmetrically. The house is beautiful and beautiful. Arriving at the door, Empress Qin signaled the maid to knock on the door.
"Is there anyone? Is there anyone?" Xiao Gong'e knocked on the door gently.
A little girl came out of the door:
"You are?"
"We were passing by here and wanted to take a rest here." Queen Qin hurriedly replied.
The little girl came in again. Suddenly a middle-aged woman came out. This woman was the wet nurse of Princess E Pei. When she came out, she recognized Empress Qin at a glance:
"Queen, you missed the princess and you found yourself here!" He quickly invited the queen into the room to rest.
It turns out that the nanny, Princess "Epei" and Princess Liehui Red Fox settled in this farmhouse after they separated.
"Queen, Princess E Pei misses the queen very much. I quickly ask her to come out to see the queen." The nurse told the queen.
The Queen of Qin had long heard that Princess E Pei was stationed at Qiyun Mountain, and she developed military equipment and gradually became stronger. What we see today is that someone is pretending to be "Princess E Pei" to win people's hearts and increase their power.
Empress Qin nodded silently.
I saw a slim and graceful woman with the same figure and figure as Princess E Pei. But he was wearing a silk mask at this time.
"See you, Queen Mother! Good luck to the Queen Mother!" Princess "E Pei" knelt down to say hello.
"Okay, okay, get up!" Empress Qin lifted the mask of "Princess E Pei", and both the queen and the maid took two steps back in fright: "There is someone with the same face as Princess E Pei in the world! They are exactly the same."
"Nanny, please tell me carefully, why are you and Princess E Pei stationed here?" Empress Qin asked the wet nurse.
The wet nurse knelt down and answered truthfully: "Your Majesty is looking for Princess E Pei. There is really no other way to protect Princess E Pei. This woman is not your biological princess, but another woman in disguise." The wet nurse knew that the queen was kind and loving. I feel like I should tell the truth at this time.
"Then where is my Princess E Pei?" Empress Qin continued to ask.
"The real Princess E Pei has left Qin, and her life is safe and sound." The wet nurse stated the whole story of the incident. "Queen, please forgive me!" The wet nurse dragged Princess "E Pei" to kneel down and begged Empress Qin for pardon. .
Queen Qin knew that the nanny had never lied. "Now that the country is in danger, I don't want your lives! But you must tell me the truth and falsehood of Qiyun Mountain's power one by one! The merits will be punished!" Empress Qin thought that the country was employing people, and it was not possible to deal with them at this time. If it is appropriate, you need to understand all the dynamics, strength and situation of Qi Yunshan. Once the country is stable, you can then make a decision by looking at their people's hearts.
The wet nurse and Princess "E Pei" nodded in agreement. So he took the Queen of Qin and Gong'e up the mountain, and the little yellow croaker still followed them, along the east path stretching up the jungle, and when they reached the middle pavilion, there was still a Taoist temple.
