Da Qin: I, who was bound to Qin Shihuang, took off

Chapter 118 The origin of Zhao Gao and Qin Qiniang!
Time flies!
Bridge Village.

In the Qin family's small courtyard.

Ba Rou sat on the soft cushion. Her belly had grown bigger. It looked like she had been pregnant for more than six months.

aside.

Qin Qiniang has always taken close care of her and treated Ba Rou as a daughter.

"Rou'er, you have a big belly now, but you should also walk more. Mom will take you to the village when you have nothing to do. Your future birth will not be too painful and will be faster." Qin Qiniang said softly.

"kindness."

"Mom, I know." Barou immediately replied.

Looking at Qin Qiniang, her eyes were full of gratitude.

Having lived in the village for several months, Qin Qiniang took great care of Ba Rou. She did not dare to let her bump into her, but she was also very caring.

This time!

The chief ran over quickly.

"Sister Qin, a big shot is coming."

"It is said that the current king's personal steward came here to reward your family."

"Now we are not far from the entrance of the village. Marquis Pang Jun asked me to inform you first." The chief said with an anxious look.

Since Qin Qi became famous, Qiao Village has also completely changed from an unknown small village.

A military camp was stationed at the bridge village for protection.

Moreover, the imperial court also gave some valuable gifts from time to time, and all the unattainable big shots came to Qiao Village. As time passed, the news spread, and even the local magistrate and prefect came to visit Qin Qi's home.

Everyone knew that the mother of a big shot lived in Qiao Village.

"The current king's personal steward?"

Listen to this.

Qin Qiniang was stunned and her expression became dull.

A figure appeared in front of Qin Qiniang, that figure that was humble, that had no dignity, that figure that was bullied.

"It can't be Xiao Gao, right?"

Think of this.

Qin Qiniang's expression changed.

"Rou'er, Mom is a little uncomfortable. Please wait in the yard for Mom."

talking.

Qin Qiniang didn't even explain, and walked directly to her house.

see this.

Li Chang and Ba Rou were a little puzzled.

Normally, Qin Qiniang would greet anyone who came in person. Why did it change today?

but.

Naturally, Ba Rou didn't think much and said immediately: "My mother has been accompanying me these days, and she is indeed a little tired."

"It's okay, it's the same with you anyway. You are the Qin family's daughter-in-law, and you are pregnant with the Qin family's eldest grandson." Li Chang said with a smile.

Ba Rou nodded shyly.

Although this is already a fact, and she has been approved by her mother-in-law, Ba Rou is still a little shy every time she mentions becoming the daughter-in-law of the Qin family.

Soon.

Led by Pang Junhou, who was guarding Qiao Village, a man with a soft and fair complexion came to the courtyard of the Qin family.

Behind him were a dozen eunuchs wearing eunuch uniforms in the palace.

Each eunuch held various brocade boxes in his hands, and there were carriages behind him pulling hundreds of boxes of gifts.

These are all gifts from the king.

outside the yard.

Barou and the chief are already waiting.

Zhao Gao glanced at her very calmly and said expressionlessly: "Mother of Qin Qi, where is the Qin family?"

"Go back to your lord."

"My mother-in-law is feeling a little unwell and is resting in her room now."

"I specially asked my concubine to come and greet you."

heard.

Zhao Gao glanced at Ba Rou with a strange look, then walked slowly to the courtyard, and said to the eunuch behind him: "Let's carry these gifts to the courtyard first."

"promise."

Many eunuchs respectfully accepted the order and carried the brocade box to the courtyard.

Zhao Gao looked at Ba Rou.

"The king specifically explained that there is an issue that requires Mrs. Qin's consent in person."

"Please Madam, please lead the way. I will go and read out the royal edict." Zhao Gao said to Ba Rou in a slightly gentle tone.

"Ok."

See here.

Ba Rou nodded.

"Please come with me, sir."

Ba Rou stepped forward to lead the way to Qin Qiniang's room.

"mother."

"This gentleman said that the current king has something to ask for your consent." Ba Rou knocked on the door and said warmly.

The sound continued for a while.

A hoarse voice came from the room.

"I don't know...I wonder what's wrong, sir?"

"A commoner's wife has contracted the cold and is unable to see guests. Please forgive me." Qin Qiniang replied hoarsely.

"Why does it feel like I've heard this voice somewhere before?"

Zhao Gao was stunned and looked at the room in surprise.

but.

Suddenly hearing Qin Qiniang's voice, Zhao Gao felt a sense of déjà vu, but when he thought about it carefully, he didn't expect it.

Come back to your senses.

Zhao Gao still performed his duties, holding the royal edict in his hand, and said to the room: "Edict of the King of Qin! Qin Qi has made new contributions to the country, and Mrs. Qin has made indispensable contributions in cultivating capable generals and ministers for the country! Now I give you the elixir, the elixir, and the elixir." Stone, gold, silver, jade.”

"A hundred boxes in total."

"And he was given a mansion in Xianyang."

"The king asked, Mrs. Qin, if she intends to go to Xianyang?"

"In Xianyang, my wife will receive a greater reward and be protected. No one will be able to hurt my wife."

Hear this.

Qin Qiniang replied hoarsely: "Your Excellency, I would like to express my gratitude to the king on behalf of the common women. The common women have grown up in the village and do not want to leave their fathers and fellow villagers in the village. Although Xianyang is prosperous, it is not suitable for common women."

"In that case, I understand." "I came here with the king's order, so I won't stay any longer."

Zhao Gao didn't ask any more questions.

"Thank you, my lord."

"This time the folk woman accidentally caught the cold. If there is still a chance, the folk woman will treat you well next time." Qin Qiniang replied.

"Thank you, Mrs. Qin."

Zhao Gao also thanked him and said nothing more.

As an attendant of the current king, Zhao Gao is completely dependent on the King of Qin, does not collude with the courtiers, and does not show much desire for power.

Because he knew King Qin very well, if the eunuchs closest to him formed cliques, he would definitely not survive long.

The current King of Qin is no longer the Zhao Zheng he was when he first entered Qin.

"grown ups."

"All the gifts have been delivered to the yard."

An eunuch said respectfully.

"That's good." Zhao Gao nodded.

"grown ups."

"Have a meal at the mansion before leaving." Ba Rou said.

"This servant came under the king's order. Now that the king's order has been delivered, we cannot stay."

"Goodbye."

Zhao Gao hugged Barou with a fist, then turned and left.

A group of eunuchs and attendants also followed.

After Zhao Gao left with his people.

house.

Qin Qiniang's eyes flashed with excitement.

"Xiao Gao, I haven't seen you in 16 years."

"I wonder if you still remember me." Qin Qiniang murmured to herself.

Time flies!
After dozens of miles away from Qiao Village.

"stop!"

In the carriage, Zhao Gao suddenly stretched out his head and shouted with a complicated expression.

The driver of the carriage immediately pulled the reins of the horse and stopped.

"Sir, what's wrong?" the groom asked respectfully.

"I remembered."

"I remember."

"This voice belongs to the lady."

"Damn it, how could I not remember it?" Zhao Gao's expression was complicated. He always showed indifference. Even when facing King Qin, his face remained unchanged for thousands of years. But at this moment, his face was filled with emotions. A moving color.

"I heard it right, I must have heard it right."

"Although after so many years, the lady's voice has changed, it must still belong to the lady."

"Someone informed me in advance when I came, so the lady must know it's me!"

"But why is she hiding from me?"

"why?"

"Back then, the young lady cared about me the most and didn't mind the least that I was a disabled person. She gave me dignity."

"Why is she hiding from me now?"

At this moment, Zhao Gao's expression was extremely complicated, and even his heart was struggling and trembling.

For him.

At this moment, it was as if I had found the person I regarded as my life.

But when he thought that Qin Qiniang had deliberately disguised her voice and hidden herself, Zhao Gao felt puzzled and even aggrieved.

Think back to that time.

At that time, Zhao Gao was only ten years old and entered the palace for the first time.

After entering the palace, he was assigned to the imperial dining room, where he was bullied and beaten by the older eunuchs every day, in complete darkness.

until one day.

The person to whom his life was most grateful appeared and whom he regarded as his life from then on.

"What are you doing?"

"Why did you hit him?"

"He's so young, stop it."

A woman about twelve or thirteen years old came to the imperial dining room. When she saw several eunuchs surrounding a petite eunuch and beating him, she immediately called a halt.

See this woman.

Many eunuchs looked at each other.

At this time, the manager of the imperial kitchen came up to her and called her very respectfully: "Miss Xia."

One see this.

These eunuchs knelt down one after another, not daring to be rude.

Xia Yufang ignored it, but walked directly to the young Zhao Gao, slowly helped Zhao Gao up, took out a handkerchief and wiped the blood on Zhao Gao's face, and said gently: "Are you okay? .”

Feeling care like never before.

Zhao Gao's heart couldn't help but be touched, gratitude appeared in his eyes, and his voice trembled: "Slave... I'm fine... I've soiled your nobleman's handkerchief."

"What's this."

"You are so young, why do they beat you?" Xia Yufang knelt down and asked with concern.

can face this inquiry.

The eunuchs looked over with murderous eyes.

Zhao Gao's heart was full of fear, and he shrank in fear: "Thank you for your concern... slave... slave is fine."

Xia Yufang took a look and seemed to understand.

"You are too young to stay in the imperial dining room. It just so happens that Brother Zheng also needs someone to serve him. Are you willing to go back with me?"

'No one will bully you there. You and I will take care of Brother Zheng. Xia Yufang asked with a smile.

All the eunuchs around him looked envious.

Feeling Xia Yufang's sincerity and the look without any disdain, Zhao Gao was extremely grateful, knelt down and kowtowed repeatedly: "I am willing...I am willing."

"Eh."

"Stop doing this."

"Come on, take me some food first, and then come back with me."

Xia Yufang smiled slightly and stretched out his hand towards Zhao Gao.
