Chapter 340 Unreliable Person

In Huayang Palace, as the younger son of the Chu Kingdom, Xiang Chu was about to leave Xianyang, so before leaving, he wanted to bid farewell to the Empress Dowager Huayang, who was young but had a very high seniority.

Although the most important task of coming to the Qin country has been completed to this day, he still has too many doubts about the prisoner of war.

Negative Chu wants to make a final effort before leaving Qin, hoping to get a glimpse of the mystery of the prisoner of war.

For Huayang Palace, the farewell banquet held by Xiang Chu could be regarded as a family banquet. In Huayang Palace at this time, there were the Empress Dowager Huayang, Mi Chan, Fusu, Xiong Qi and others.

Then when the wine was in full swing, Ling Chu and Xiong Qi came outside the hall under the pretext of sobering up.

"What do you think, brother, about the prisoner of war?" Seeing no one around, Xiang Chu asked Xiong Qi in a low voice.

"You just pretend you don't know anything about this matter." Xiong Qi replied cautiously.

"Can this be done?" Lug Chu asked in bewilderment.

"If he's really planning something, no matter what you do, you won't be able to escape. On the contrary, when you're thinking about what to do to break his scheme, it's very likely that it's exactly what he wants you to do. The more you do it If there are too many, there will be more mistakes, and only by remaining unchanged can we deal with his calculations." Xiong Qidao.

"In this case, wouldn't you just sit and wait to die?" Xiong Qi's answer obviously did not satisfy Lu Chu.

"Then you can search for the answers as much as possible to see if you have a way to break the situation. I can only say that." Xiong Qi said.

"It seems that you have really become a native of Qin now." Looking at his elder brother in front of him, he said in disappointment or helplessness.

"In Qin country, you can only be from Qin country." Xiong Qi said.

"Really? That's not necessarily the case." Negative Chu said.

"You'd better not be too fussy. I know that among those who marry Chan'er, there are some of you. However, five years have passed, and some things have already changed." Xiong Qi said.

When Mi Chan married Ying Zheng, there were more than a dozen women just as dowries. Among these people, there were disciples from the Yin Yang family and daughters of nobles from Chu State.

Among these women, if there were no spies from Chu State, no matter what, Xiong Qi would not believe it.

But spies themselves have unreliable factors, especially female spies.

"You can be your loyal minister of Qin State with peace of mind, you don't need to worry about the affairs of Chu State." Not only did he fail to get the answer he wanted from Xiong Qi, but he got a lesson, and his mood was obviously not so good.

"That's all I can say." Xiong Qi said helplessly.

For the state of Chu, Xiong Qi has very complicated feelings. The blood of the royal family of Chu flows through his body, but he has never lived in the state of Chu.

When King Kaolie of Chu was still the prince, he acted as a hostage in the state of Qin. During this period, King Qin Zhaoxiang, who was still in power at that time, betrothed his daughter to the prince of Chu at that time, so Xiong Qi was born.

However, in the subsequent struggle for succession to the throne of Chu, Prince Chu, who was still in Xianyang, fled back to Chu State alone with the help of Huang Xie, leaving behind his wife and son.

The Crown Prince of Chu became King Chu Kaolie, Huang Xie became Lord Chunshen, the Princess of Qin became a widow, and Xiong Qi became a man without a father.

Under such circumstances, it was already difficult for Xiong Qi to say that he was a Chu countryman, which was one of the reasons why Qin country did not reject him at all.

But Xiong Qi knew that he had never given up on his Chu blood, and he had been waiting for an opportunity.

However, as he deepened his understanding of Qin, the persistence in his heart became weaker and weaker.

Because he sees no chance of success.

The two half-brothers just broke up.

Fortunately, in front of the Empress Dowager Huayang and Mi Chan, the two brothers still knew how to maintain proper harmony, so it did not affect the progress of the banquet.

The banquet dissipated, and people outside the palace left one after another, while Mi Chan stayed in Huayang Palace.

"Your brother's mind is very active." In the bath, the Empress Dowager Huayang, who was washing off the smell of alcohol, suddenly said to Michan who submerged herself in the water.

"Which brother of mine is Auntie talking about?" Mi Chan asked, brushing up her long wet hair.

"Two." The Empress Dowager Huayang said.

"In their eyes, there is only power, so their thoughts are naturally much more vivid." Mi Chan said indifferently.

"It's good that you know it. You will have less contact with them in the future. In their eyes, it's hard to tell whether you are a relative or a tool that can be used." The Empress Dowager Huayang followed Mi Chan's example and submerged herself in the water.

As we age, the skin already begins to loosen, and water is an excellent way to change that.Therefore, the Empress Dowager Huayang has become more and more fond of bathing.

"I know." Mi Chan said.

"What happened to the women around you?" asked the Empress Dowager Huayang.

"What did my aunt say?" Mi Chan asked puzzled.

"You really don't know?" The Queen Mother Huayang asked back.

"In Xingle Palace, there are several Princesses of Zhao State sent by King Zhao back then. I heard that Zhao Ji intends to train them. The reason is that there are too many people from Chu State in Xianyang Palace." The Queen Mother Huayang continued. .

Regarding the composition of the harem of Xianyang Palace, even the Empress Dowager Huayang is sometimes confused, because it is extremely abnormal to a certain extent.

In the harem of Xianyang Palace, the women from the Chu State are the most numerous, followed by the former Korean women. As for the women from the Wei State, there is almost no sense of existence, let alone mentioning it.

Such a situation naturally dissatisfied Zhao Ji.

So Zhao Ji, who had nothing to do, turned her mind on the princesses of Zhao Guo that Ying Zheng gave him back then.

"This kind of thing is not something I should consider. After all, it doesn't matter what other people think about this kind of thing. It's just about the king's preferences." Mi Chan said.

"Favorites, what are your majesty's preferences?" Huayang Empress Dowager said.

"Auntie, such a question is not something that an elder like you should inquire about." Mi Chan revealed a playful smile as she spoke.

"I am concerned about you. Your dowry is not for you to be a maid." The Empress Dowager Huayang said nonchalantly, "Besides, the king's heirs are a little less. Born four years ago."

"Auntie, people think too much and they will grow old quickly." Facing the question from the Empress Dowager Huayang, Mi Chan said leisurely.

"You..." The Empress Dowager Huayang was completely speechless at this moment.
