Qin Shi: Sword Asks the Bright Moon

Chapter 149 Zhao Ji's Melancholy

"Your yard is so cold." Under the morning sun, the morning chill had dissipated, but when a maid named Red Carp walked into Orchid's small yard, she shivered unexpectedly.

When she looked intently, she realized that in this small courtyard she was no stranger to, there were many places where a thick layer of frost had condensed, reflecting the sunlight, which seemed to make the sunlight a little colder. meaning.

"It's a bit cold, Miss Hong, what is this?" Hu Ji, who was packing her belongings in the room, raised her head and asked Hong Li through the open window.

"Help you pack your things. You and your master are moving out today. The young master asked me to come over and see if there is anything I can do to help you." Hong Li said, she was what Hu Ji said last night. The good sister who taught her a lot, but taught her nothing in key places.

Meng Tian, ​​as the eldest grandson of Meng Ao, the head of the Meng family, is already half-adult according to the rules of this era, so Red Carp, the maid of the Meng family, was arranged beside Meng Tian, ​​meaning Naturally, it goes without saying that such things are not uncommon in this era. Qin Wangzheng is already going to marry a Chu princess, and Cheng Yu, who is more than a year younger than Qin Wangzheng, even has heirs.

"Don't bother you, Miss Hong. The master and I don't have much, just a few clothes." Hu Ji said, who had already packed two packages.

"It's just a few clothes?" Red Carp looked around the room, but his eyes were inadvertently fixed on the two small clothes in front of another window.

"Little girl, you wash your clothes early in the morning?" Red Carp said.

"No." Orchid, who has gradually understood what "shyness" is, replied.

"It wasn't washed? Then why did you hang it? Could it be you last night..." Red Carp said with an inscrutable smile: "Successful?"

"What did you get?" Hu Ji said blankly.

"It's what I told you before, have you tried it on your master?" Red Carp said with a gossip.

"Try it." Hu Ji replied, although she already knew what shyness was, but her shyness was limited. After all, some concepts cannot be completely subverted in a short period of time.

"How's the situation?" Red Carp asked, she hasn't succeeded yet, if she can get some surprises from Hu Ji, it can be regarded as learning from each other.

"I don't know either." Hu Ji said blankly.

"How could it be possible not to know? Tell me about the situation at that time, and I'll help you with the details." Red Carp said eagerly.

"I followed the method you told me, Sister Hong, to help the master press his shoulders, took off his clothes, and entered the bathtub to help the master wipe his body." Orchid recalled.

"And then?" Red Carp asked.

"What happened after that?" Hu Ji recalled, "Master seems to like it very much, at least he didn't kick me out."

When Hu Ji said this, she glanced at the red carp, and sure enough, a little black air appeared in the red carp's expression.

"How can you be sure?" Red Carp asked.

"Master, he hugged me." Hu Ji said.

"and then?"

"He even kissed me." Orchid recalled.

"where?"

"Here, here, and here." Hu Ji pointed her forehead with her finger, then pointed to her ear, and slowly slid across her face, lips, and neck, and then slid down along the line of her neck.

"You?" Red Carp looked at Hu Ji's dress that was deeply inserted into the soft flesh, and felt envious for a while.

"It seemed to be bitten. It hurt a little at the time, but it didn't feel like pain. Anyway, it was very strange, and it made people dizzy." Hu Ji recalled.

Still bitten?Those three simple words reminded Hong Li of many images. Is this little bearded girl so powerful?
"What happened next?" Red Carp asked, she felt that she should be able to learn something from Hu Ji, after all, a master is a teacher.

"Then? Then it's gone. You didn't tell me what happened next, Miss Hong, so I don't know. After that, the water got a little cold. Master put on his clothes and went to practice martial arts." When Hu Ji said this, she only felt that the two His cheeks became slightly hot, and after that, he seemed to have made a fool of himself.

It's just that I don't want to, since such a thing hasn't happened since I was four years old, the master shouldn't have noticed, right?Hu Ji thought about it, and couldn't help being in a trance.

"Alas." A sigh came, and Hong Li only felt that the road to promotion from his maid to concubine was very difficult.

"Forget it, I'll help you pack your things." Red Carp said with a lack of interest. It turned out that it wasn't that orchids are too powerful, it's just that the people they serve are different.

When Hu Ji packed up her belongings and was about to move out of Meng's house, Yang Ming had already come to Ganquan Palace and took over his real work.

Wei Wei is worthy of being the Colonel of Ganquan Palace during the Empress Dowager Xuan's period. Even if Yang Ming was not around, the official duties of the Colonel of Ganquan Palace were still familiar to him. The training and scheduling of the [-] soldiers was also flawless. Having such a person under his command could save Yang Ming a lot of time.

However, when Yang Ming came to the watchtower where the school captain of Ganquan Palace used to handle official affairs, Wei Tie still brought out a large number of bamboo slips.

"These are all my surveys of [-] imperial guards these days, which contain their names, birthplaces, martial arts, abilities, temperaments, and families." Wei He pointed to the bamboo slips piled up like a hill road.

"With someone like you assisting me, I can't rest assured." Yang Ming picked up a volume and read it.

"I thought you would dislike these things too much and be useless." Wei Tie said unexpectedly.

It is not a simple matter to keep the information of 600 people in mind, it requires a lot of energy, and it takes so much energy just to understand the information of [-] guards, which is not easy for some officials From a human point of view, this is not a wise thing to do. After all, an official pays attention to employing people. If you have to do everything yourself, you will not be exhausted.

Especially a young man like Yang Ming who is in a high position is the most irritable. It is even more difficult for such a person to do something that takes a long time and does not see any value in a short period of time.

But Yang Ming looked at it without hesitation, which surprised Wei Tie somewhat.

"If there are 6000 people's information here, I will directly reject it, but it's okay if there are only 600 people." Yang Ming said.

"Also, whether I can go further in the future may depend on these 600 people." Yang Ming said meaningfully.

The position of Colonel of Oasis Palace is important, it can be said that it is a humble and powerful position, but there is no such thing as good things in the world, this position also has flaws, that is, it is extremely difficult to make meritorious deeds and get promoted.

And if Yang Ming wants to truly have his own power in Qin, he can't just rely on Zhao Ji's protection. In the whole of Qin, military merit is the most important, and if Yang Ming wants to get what he wants, military merit must be obtained. s things.

But although the captain of Ganquan Palace is known as a captain, it is extremely difficult to obtain military merits. After all, as the empress dowager's guard, can't he fight in battle?
And if these imperial guards from Ganquan Palace were really needed to fight, it would usually be because the enemy had reached the door of the house. If that happened, Yang Ming might have to consider whether the military exploits of the Qin army were still valuable.

But Yang Ming is not without chances. In his memory, in the six years of Qin Wangzheng's five-country joint vertical attack on Qin, the allied forces directly bypassed the main force of the Qin army and attacked the smallest place not more than a hundred miles away from Xianyang. City, to a certain extent, it really hit the door of the house, and the guards like Yang Ming who were used to watch the house really needed to watch the house at that time.

And then the opportunity came for Yang Ming.

But before that, it is still necessary to train the 600 people under his command to become a real strong army. After all, you need to be hardworking yourself. If your own strength is not good, you will not be able to grasp the opportunity even if it is in front of you.

In one morning, Yang Ming dealt with the bamboo slips. When it was close to noon, according to the usual practice, Yang Ming had to enter the inner palace to patrol. When Yang Ming came to the inner palace, he happened to see Zhao Ji.

At this time, Zhao Ji was lying on the soft couch that had been moved to the corridor in front of the bedroom. When Yang Ming saw Zhao Ji, Zhao Ji obviously also saw Yang Ming. Zhao Ji, who was not in a good mood, directly asked the maid beside her Called Yang Ming to the front.

Only then did Yang Ming see that Zhao Ji looked sleepy, her eye sockets were a little dark, and even a little bloodshot could be seen in her eyes.

"Queen Mother, have you had a good rest?" Yang Ming asked.

"It's not your fault." Zhao Ji squinted at Yang Ming, her words filled with resentment.

"This?" Yang Ming couldn't take it anymore.

Zhao Ji looked at the bewildered Yang Ming, and immediately noticed her slip of the tongue. Thinking about what happened last night, a faint blush appeared on her cheeks, and she felt a little guilty for a while.

After all, she is the queen mother, or she must have the majesty of the queen mother, but last night's dream?
Damn it, it's all because Yuanli's narration was too clear, even if Aijia wanted to expel that picture from his memory, he couldn't do it, and the things that were suppressed because of his identity turned out to be out of control.

Oasis Palace is very large and gorgeous, but it is precisely because of this that it is easier for a person to notice his loneliness if he lives here.

"Forget it, forget it." Zhao Ji waved her hand in a dispirited manner. Some things should not be known to others, "Your family's beautiful killer is still waiting for you, so don't say Ai's family is unkind."

"Thank you Queen Mother." Yang Ming said sincerely.

Looking at Yang Ming who was leaving excitedly, Zhao Ji's eyes showed a touch of melancholy. On Yang Ming and the startled salamander, Zhao Ji saw what she was about to lose. Time had worn away too much of her belongings. Zhao Ji's imprint, she is now the Queen Mother.
