Qin Shi: Beginning as the first emperor's younger brother

Chapter 365
Late that night.

Heavy rain.

Ying Qing came to Xianyang Palace early.

At this moment, the members of their younger generation and Li Qiu, Mi Hua and even Ying Zheng's other concubines are sitting in order.

The seat away from the emperor's seat is still vacant, and it belongs to Ying Yuan.

What is curious is that, as if the two brothers had made an agreement, neither of them came at this time.

On both sides of the palace, on the right are several elders of the royal family, as well as the sons Fusu, Huhai, Ziying, Yingqing and so on.

Sitting on the left is Li Qiu and the others.

Logically speaking, Ying Qing should sit at the bottom. After all, in terms of status, he is far inferior to the elders of the royal family or the sons of His Majesty the Emperor.

However, under Ying Zheng's special arrangement, his seat was higher than Fu Su's.

However, except for Li Qiu, Hu Hai and those elders of the royal family who knew Ying Yuan's horror, the rest seemed to be somewhat dissatisfied with Ying Yuan.

During the banquet, when the singers and dancers were performing, no one came to drink with Ying Qing except Hu Hai. Even when he took the initiative to raise the wine glass to others, they turned a blind eye.

Treating this situation, he could only shake his head and smile wryly.

There is no way, in Xianyang city, there are too many people who are close to young master Fusu, and they know the conflicts between themselves and Fusu.

If it wasn't for the faction, he thought that he would have become friends with someone like Fu Su.

In order to avoid Ying Qing's embarrassment, Li Qiu asked the dancers to temporarily stop their singing and dancing talent performance, and temporarily let them step aside, then picked up a glass of wine in front of him, looked at Ying Qing, and asked with a smile:
"Qing'er has done a good job these years. I have heard people say that Qing'er was extremely brave in killing the enemy in northern Xinjiang. He is quite like your father and king. With this glass of wine, I will respect you father and son as the king of Qin." everything."

Speaking of which, she made a gesture to drink, and when she held the glass in front of her, she slowly looked at the crowd, smiled and said, "Everyone, please drink together."

If she hadn't mentioned Ying Yuan, probably no one would want to drink this glass of wine.

But since King Qi was mentioned, other people dare not give Li Qiu or Ying Qing this face.

Everyone raised their glasses at the same time, and then drank it all in one gulp.

At this moment, Mi Hua wiped the wine stains from the corner of her mouth, and said bluntly: "Qing'er participated in the battle of Northern Xinjiang. It seems that his future plan is to join the army? I heard that your Qi County has no less than 30 children. As for the army, this is several times more than what His Majesty told the prince back then, right?"

Hearing the sound, everyone was taken aback.

Even Fusu felt a little unbelievable.

It was hard for him to imagine that these words were actually spoken by his own queen mother.

After all, everyone in Qi County knew about raising soldiers. Since everyone knew about it, His Majesty the Emperor must also know about it.

The emperor didn't even talk about it, who would dare to speak out?
Isn't this the same as piercing the window paper between Xianyang and Qi County?

Fortunately, both the emperor and the king of Qi are in the future.

Otherwise, just relying on her words, things here are doomed to be difficult.

"Auntie, where did you hear the rumors? My nephew grew up in Qi County and never heard that my father raised 30 soldiers. You can't talk nonsense about this!"

Ying Qing didn't call her 'Emperor Concubine', but called her 'Auntie', just to remind the other party that there is still such a family relationship, if the face is torn apart, I'm afraid the end will be extremely ugly.

However, the chief designer of Miechu was Ying Yuan.

Mi Hua's mother country is the Chu country, and the downfall of those foreign relatives before is closely related to Ying Yuan. Even now, she suspects that Changping Lord Mi Qi was killed by Ying Yuan.

With so many old grievances, Mi Hua is aligned with the line of the palace, and she really can't arouse the interest in making friends.

Moreover, she also paranoidly believed that as long as Fusu stabilized her current position, the future throne would definitely belong to him.

After all, in the eyes of her mother, Fusu is an extremely smart child, able to understand the principles of seeking good fortune and avoiding harm, judging the situation, and possessing the peerless talent of governing the country. Can Hu Hai, who has been dubbed a dude, be his opponent?

In this way, Mi Hua is not afraid of the existence of the Qi Palace.

But as a woman, she has never considered how terrifying the power of Prince Qi's Mansion is at this stage.

"Rumor? Since Qing'er said it was a rumor, then I will not say more. However, since it is a rumor, there will be a day when it will be clarified. I will wait and see."

Mi Hua covered her mouth and smiled.

Fusu breathed a sigh of relief.

If we continue to discuss this topic, I'm afraid that today's dinner party will definitely not end well.

However, as a son, he didn't know some thoughts in his mother's heart.

Mi Hua believes that Qi County's raising soldiers is indeed a real problem, not a non-existent thing.

His Majesty the Emperor must have grasped some clues, but the reason why he is not in a hurry to attack the Qi Palace now is because the country needs to vigorously develop internal affairs in the early stage of the preliminary determination of the world, and as for some other things, it can only be slightly behind.

But when the internal affairs are stable, the general direction of development is determined, and after ensuring that there will be no major problems in the empire, His Majesty the Emperor will definitely take action to solve the problems of the Qi Palace.

That is the so-called 'after autumn settlement'.

She was right to think so.

It's just that she overlooked one thing. Basically, those who "settled accounts after autumn" are the kings of later generations.

That is to say, during the period before Yingzheng's death, Prince Qi's Mansion was in an absolutely safe state.

At this time, it would be unwise for her to get an enemy as powerful as Ying Yuan for Fu Su.

But in any case, fortunately, enough is enough for her.

Ying Qing nodded and said nothing more.

On this occasion, he really shouldn't talk too much, because silence is golden.

Under Li Qiu's signal, the singing and dancing continued.

Soon, Ying Zheng came.

Everyone stood up and bowed.

He sat on the throne, looked at the vacant seat not far in front of him, frowned slightly, but soon relaxed.

After everyone sat down at ease, he looked at Ying Qing and asked, "Qing'er, why hasn't your father arrived yet?"

Between the words, there was no anger.

Hearing the sound, Ying Qing got up and bowed, "Go back to Uncle, my father should be on his way now."

He didn't mention the reason, but Ying Zheng didn't care. He nodded and motioned him to sit down.

At this moment, Mi Hua said: "Your Majesty, the king of Qi knows the time for the banquet, but it has not arrived at this moment, it is inevitable."

She was about to continue talking, but she noticed Fusu's sharp eyes, and immediately realized that she had said something wrong.

Ying Zheng chuckled, "You mean to say that you don't care about me?"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone bowed their heads.

Mi Hua was very embarrassed.

Ying Zheng continued: "When did this brother of mine take me seriously? It's been like this since I was a child. Over the years, I have been used to it. If one day, I call Brother Yuan to come, and Brother Yuan will come as promised. And if the time is exactly the same, then I will think more about it instead."

No one understood what he meant by these words.

No one dared to understand.

Mi Hua bit her lip lightly and said nothing more.

Fu Su shook his head, he felt that his mother seemed a little weird today.

In fact, he didn't want him to feel this, because he really couldn't personally experience the kind of grievances and hatred between the previous generation.

Mi Hua's identity needless to say, as the umbrella of the power of foreign relatives, she has established a good chain of interests with many relatives and children, but because of the collapse of Chu State and the death of Mi Qi, the power of foreign relatives plummeted and almost became extinct.

Behind this, it can be vaguely seen that Ying Yuan's handwriting exists.

Therefore, Mi Hua couldn't calm down and coexist peacefully with the people in Prince Qi's Mansion.

To put it bluntly, besides being Fusu's mother, she is just a little girl.
