My brother Ying Zheng, who dares to kill me?.

Chapter 825 I took Jiao'er as my son, but Jiao'er is crazy! If you want your son to be your son, you must first make your mother your mother!
What can Ying Chengjiao do?
Even though he was complaining in his heart, Ying Chengjiao sighed with regret on his face: "Alas!"

"I thought the Queen Mother had moved back to Ganquan Palace, so it would be easier for me to go to her place for meals."

"But I never thought that the Queen Mother would not want to move back to Ganquan Palace."

"This Kuiyang Palace is more than a hundred miles away from Chang'an Township. I am currently busy with government affairs and it is difficult for me to travel far."

"It may be difficult to taste the delicacies cooked by the Queen Mother again!"

The coldness on Zhao Ji's face disappeared, and she looked at Ying Chengjiao with amusement and said, "Qiao'er has refused to stay away from me."

"If I move to Ganquan Palace, will Jiao'er really come to my palace for free meals?"

Ying Chengjiao glanced at Ying Zheng and smiled a little timidly: "I will definitely beg the king to take me to Ganquan Palace!"

Ying Chengjiao knew what Zhao Ji wanted to hear.

But Ying Chengjiao really didn't dare to agree.

Following Ying Zheng, Ying Chengjiao came to eat.

But if Ying Chengjiao came alone, it would be hard to say what he would eat!
Zhao Ji covered her mouth and laughed sweetly: "I took Jiao'er as my Zidu (an ancient handsome man, the meaning of the word is similar to Pan An)."

"I never thought that Jiao'er is actually a frivolous boy (a young man who behaves frivolously, often used by girls to refer to their lovers)!"

"I am just happy to treat you to a delicious meal."

"Qie'er, why do you seem to think that I want to enjoy you?"

Ying Chengjiao was obviously embarrassed.

Can you really say that?
How do you expect me to answer this?
And I really don’t have the awareness of sacrificing myself for my country!

"Oh!"

Ying Zheng slammed the table and stood up again, staring at Zhao Ji with his eyes fixed.

After a few breaths, Ying Zheng shouted coldly: "Brother, go!"

After saying this, Ying Zheng turned around and left without hesitation!

It is impossible for Ying Zheng to let Ying Chengjiao suffer such humiliation just to welcome Zhao Ji back!
Ying Chengjiao also quickly stood up and ran behind Ying Zheng.

If Ying Chengjiao had to sacrifice himself to bring Zhao Ji back, then Ying Chengjiao would prefer to solve the problem with the sword in his hand!

"and many more!"

Zhao Ji stood up lazily, looked at Ying Zheng's back with a half-smile and asked, "Zheng'er's sudden visit today may not be just to satisfy Quan Qiao'er's appetite."

"Zheng'er hurriedly asked me to move to Ganquan Palace. I don't think it was out of filial piety to me."

"Let me guess, Zheng'er wants to gain a reputation as a filial son, so that the people of Guandong will sincerely respect him?"

Ying Zheng's eyes suddenly focused, and he shouted loudly: "Order!"

"Thoroughly investigate the Laiyang Palace!"

"Anyone who has secret dealings with people in and outside the Laiyang Palace will be arrested and tortured!"

Ying Chengjiao then spoke up: "Everyone in Chang'an Palace must obey the king's orders!"

Outside the palace gate, the fortune teller's voice came: "Yes!"

The sound of swords being drawn from their sheaths and the sound of armor colliding were endless.

One hundred veteran soldiers led four hundred new soldiers and stood guard around the main hall with swords in hand.

More than a hundred old soldiers led more than three hundred new soldiers to rush to various places in the Laiyang Palace, rushing around!

Zhao Ji walked down the stairs gracefully with her long, straight legs, and smiled softly, "It seems that I guessed right."

Ying Zheng turned around, looked down at Zhao Ji who was walking slowly towards him, and said in a cold voice: "I thought that Queen Mother Wang would behave a little more after the incident in Qinian Palace."

"I have overestimated the Queen Mother."

Ying Zheng knew that Zhao Ji's brain was not capable of understanding what she had just said.

There must be someone behind Zhao Ji's back giving her advice!
Zhao Ji laughed with some contempt: "Zheng'er, there is no need to send people to search."

"On my way to the Kuiyang Palace, Mao Jiao, a man from Qi, came to pay me a visit and said that only filial piety could help me out of my troubles."

"As long as I show some affectionate motherly attitude, Zheng'er will have no choice but to pardon my crime and take me back in order to avoid being called an unfilial son and to take over the Kanto region."

"Zheng'er, you don't have to worry that I will fall in love with this person."

"Mao Jiao's appearance is nothing but that!"

Ying Chengjiao asked in confusion: "Where is the Mao Jiao?"

Even Ying Chengjiao knew the name of Mao Jiao.

As the protagonist of "Mao Jiao Remonstrates with the King of Qin", Mao Jiao should have advised Ying Zheng to welcome Zhao Ji back a few years ago. Ying Chengjiao always felt that with Mao Jiao's presence, he didn't need to do anything more.

As a result, what about Mao Jiao and others?

Zhao Ji's laughter became more cheerful: "You were chased away by me."

"What good will it do me if I move back to Ganquan Palace?"

"It's Zheng'er."

The corners of Zhao Ji's mouth drew an arrogant arc: "In recent years, I have always been regarded as an unfilial son by the people of the world, and I am more likely to be spurned and despised by the Confucian scholars of Qi and Lu, and jointly criticized."

"How does it taste?"

The disappointment and loneliness in Ying Zheng's eyes gradually turned frosty and were about to be replaced by endless coldness.

He slowly drew out his sword with his right hand, but Ying Zheng's voice turned calm: "I never thought that the Queen Mother still hated me so deeply."

Zhao Ji finally walked in front of Ying Zheng, ignoring the half-drawn sword of Ying Zheng, and stared at Ying Zheng with her beautiful phoenix eyes, with disappointment and loneliness gradually emerging in her eyes: "Zheng'er, are you surprised?"

"I am quite surprised by Zheng'er's surprise." "Zheng'er and Qiao'er have a deep relationship, so he should know the relationship between Qiao'er and Madam Han."

"Qian'er never hides anything from Madam Han. He speaks frankly to Madam Han and believes deeply in what Madam Han teaches."

"Have the hardships that Jiao'er and Madam Han have gone through been greater than the hardships that I and Zheng'er have gone through?"

"But what about you, Zheng'er!"

"Even if you have something to ask of me today, you still won't say it clearly!"

"Zheng'er hates me deeply, how can I not hate Zheng'er!"

Ying Chengjiao finally understood why Zhao Ji drove Mao Jiao away.

It turns out that the presence of Ying Chengjiao, a child from another family, as a control group made Zhao Ji even more disappointed with Ying Zheng!
Ying Zheng slightly avoided Zhao Ji's gaze, and the sword no longer continued to be unsheathed. He said calmly: "There are only a few people like you in this world."

"I shoulder the responsibility of protecting the country of Qin, so I cannot trust others."

In later dynasties, princes were mostly rivals, fighting each other to the death and being suspicious of each other. There were very few people like Ying Chengjiao and Ying Zheng.

Most princes and their biological mothers have a close relationship, and they prosper and suffer together. There are countless people like Ying Chengjiao and Madam Han!
However, in this era, especially in the Qin Dynasty, although there may be suspicion between the princes, there are more people who are willing to work together, such as Ying Chengjiao and Ying Zheng.

On the contrary, the relationship between the prince and his biological mother is mostly in a state of suspicion where they can fight but not resolve the conflict. If the prince ascends the throne and becomes king, the conflict will completely erupt. There are very few people like Ying Chengjiao and Madam Han!
As a standard king, how could Ying Zheng trust Zhao Ji the same way Ying Chengjiao trusted Madam Han when he watched his great-grandmother marginalize his great-grandfather and his two grandmothers try to influence his father!

The loneliness and sadness in Zhao Ji's eyes became even stronger: "Even now that I have already predicted Zheng'er's intentions."

"It is now that Zheng'er has been accused of being unfilial by the people of Kanto for many years."

"Zheng'er still doesn't want to be honest with me?!"

Ying Zheng looked at Zhao Ji again and said calmly, "I really want to win the recognition of the people of the world, especially the people of Guandong, as a filial son, so I want to welcome the Queen Mother back."

"I have no choice but to welcome back the Queen Mother for the sake of the country, but I do not think I am wrong, and I am unwilling to admit it."

"That is why I summoned my younger brother back and entered the palace of Kuiyang under his guise."

The cinnamon twigs on Zhao Ji's golden crown trembled wildly, and she laughed crazily: "Hahaha~"

"I will use five years of my youth and freedom to repay my mistake to Zheng'er!"

"Zheng'er is willing to admit his mistakes to the court officials, but he is unwilling to admit his mistakes to me?!"

"A son asks his mother for something, and he admits his fault in a gentle way, is that wrong?!"

Zhao Ji refused to accept!

It is true that Ying Zheng was the King of Qin, but Zhao Ji was also the Queen Mother. From the perspective of etiquette, the two were equal. A strong Queen Mother like Queen Dowager Xuan could even sideline the King of Qin!

Zhao Ji knew that she felt guilty towards Ying Zheng for giving birth to two sons, and was willing to imprison herself to atone for her sin.

But was Ying Zheng right?
Why is it that only Zhao Ji has to bow her head, but not Ying Zheng?

Zhao Ji's laughter was particularly hearty: "Of course! This wrong policy must be admitted eventually."

"After all, I have no desires or requests, so asking is useless."

"Zheng'er has the whole world in mind, and his wishes are very broad!"

Ying Zheng's face was gloomy and he completely pulled out the Qin King's Sword!
Ying Chengjiao stood beside the two of them, jumping anxiously like a duck being grilled on a teppanyaki grill.

Seeing that the conflict between Ying Zheng and Zhao Ji was becoming more and more intense, Ying Chengjiao had no idea how to persuade them.

But he was very anxious!
Ying Chengjiao could only say in the gentlest tone possible: "Brother, Queen Mother, please calm down for now."

"It's getting late, Queen Mother, please go to bed first."

"After a few days, I will ask the king to take me here to have a meal."

Ying Zheng and Zhao Ji shook their heads at the same time, one in a stern voice and the other in a cheerful one:
"That's not necessary."

Zhao Ji looked at Ying Zheng deeply, with a smile and relief in her eyes.

Then Zhao Ji passed by Ying Zheng and pushed the palace door open with force in Ying Zheng's astonished gaze.

Stepping out of the hall, Zhao Ji spoke loudly: "Pass on my order!"

"Your Majesty, out of a sincere heart of filial piety and gratitude for the old times when you depended on each other, has pardoned my crime of raising an army and causing rebellion!"

"Everyone in the Aiyang Palace is packing their bags and preparing to move to the Ganquan Palace."

"Remember!" When Zhao Ji's eyes swept over Zhao Ying and the others, a bit of disgust inevitably rose in her eyes: "Take good care of my people, don't let them die on the road!"

The people in the Aiyang Palace, who were separated from the rest of the family by Bafu and other soldiers, all had a look of deep surprise in their eyes.

They guessed that Ying Zheng's arrival might change their situation, but they didn't expect the change to come so quickly!
All the palace maids in the Laiyang Palace cheered in unison: "Yes!"

Ying Chengjiao was surprised and asked: "Queen Mother, you..."

Zhao Ji turned around and gave Ying Chengjiao a bright and beautiful smile like a little girl: "Are you confused?"

Ying Chengjiao nodded subconsciously.

He even wanted to call a doctor named Zhuyou to check Zhao Ji's brain.

He was still sneering and joking about fighting to the death in the previous second, but in the next second he suddenly agreed with Ying Zheng's wishes and even publicly admitted that Ying Zheng was sincerely filial, firmly welding the title of filial son onto Ying Zheng's head!

Queen Mother, I absolutely do not believe that you are not mentally ill!
Zhao Ji turned her gaze to Ying Zheng again and smiled softly:

"If you want your son to be a son (be like a child), you must first be a mother (be like a mother)."

"This is what Madam Han taught me."

"I didn't understand in the past."

"Now, I want to give it a try."
