Beast Taming: Starting from Contracting the Mysterious Beast

And at this moment.

In the Ganquan Palace.

A lady covered in luxurious clothing.

He was staring hard at the young man in front of him.

The young man was tall but a little thin.

About sixteen or seventeen years old.

The appearance is somewhat similar to Ying Zheng.

In other words, this person's appearance is more similar to that of King Zhuang Xiang of the Qin Kingdom who has been dead for many years.

in this way.

The identities of these two people are already obvious.

That noble lady is Han Ji, the concubine of King Zhuang Xiang.

And that young man.

He is the son of Han Ji and King Zhuang Xiang.

Yingzheng’s half-brother Changan Juncheng.

But at this moment.

When Xia Ji passed away, it was obvious that both Han Ji and Cheng 𫊸 were not in a good mood.

Everyone knows.

Xia Ji is not only the Empress Dowager of Great Qin.

and.

Like Han Ji, Xia Ji was also born in Korea.

It can be said.

It is the support of Han Ji and Cheng 𫊸.

at the moment.

With the passing of Xia Ji, it also represents.

The biggest reliance of Han Ji and Cheng 𫊸 in the Qin State was completely lost.

This naturally made Han Ji and Cheng 𫊸 not happy at all.

"Why... why at this time..."

Han Ji gritted her teeth and looked not far away with reluctance. There was even a trace of ferocity on her face: "Now, Cheng, you have just become Lord Chang'an..."

"If you continue to work hard in the court and gain influence before you have a stable foothold in the court, you may not be able to..."

But here.

The words are not finished yet.

Next to Han Ji, the young adult lowered his head.

It is clear.

Looking at the hesitant expression on Cheng 𫊸's face, Han Ji still didn't understand that her son did not agree with what she said.

As expected.

Han Ji here just finished speaking.

Cheng 𫊸 over there, after a moment of silence.

He gritted his teeth and raised his head: "Mother... I don't want to compete with Brother Wang..."

"Brother Wang has done a pretty good job as the King of Qin, and... and Brother Wang has always treated Cheng and his mother well... Moreover, this person cannot be the King of Qin, so why bother with Brother Wang... "

However.

It's just a moment later here.

Cheng 𫊸 hasn’t finished speaking yet.

"Snapped!"

But a crisp sound was heard.

Han Ji's slap.

It is clear.

There is no reservation at all.

A slap down.

There was a clear slap mark left on the right side of Cheng 𫊸's face.

The whole person staggered back two steps, and there was a faint wisp of blood at the corner of his mouth.

Enough to see.

How cruel was Han Ji's slap?

Just like the ferocious expression on Han Ji's face at this moment.

Han Ji gritted her teeth and said loudly: "Cheng𫊸! Do you know what to say!?"

"Could it be that you have forgotten everything your grandmother said to you before she died!?"

When saying this.

Han Ji's face turned red for a while.

I even thought of something.

Looking in the direction of Zhangtai Palace, a burst of hatred flashed through him: "That traitorous king is not of the blood of the previous king at all!"

"Don't you know these years? The so-called Empress Dowager Zhao is such a free-spirited person. First, she frequently moved around with Na Lu Buwei, but then she treated Na Lao Ai as a treasure. She even did not hesitate to use the Empress Dowager's order to establish a long letter. Hou, all matters in the harem are decided by Lao Ai!"

"As early as when the late king was still in Handan, this Zhao Ji was Lu Buwei's concubine. Maybe the traitor king was also..."

However.

Han Ji hasn't finished speaking yet.

"Mother!"

But seeing Cheng 𫊸 who was still covering his face just now, he shouted angrily.

Han Ji's slap just now.

Cheng 𫊸 accepted the situation without any expression at all.

There was no anger at all.

after all.

Han Ji is his mother.

No matter how Han Ji treats Cheng𫊸, it's okay.

However.

When Han Ji said this.

Cheng 𫊸 finally couldn't bear it anymore.

"Mother! Brother Wang is the king of our Qin Kingdom!"

Gritting his teeth, Cheng 𫊸's eyes were full of bloodshot eyes at this moment. Regardless of the blood still crying at the corners of his mouth, he shouted word by word: "If mother insults Brother Wang, she is insulting my country of Qin!"

The aura exuded all over his body.

But what made Han Ji subconsciously take a few steps back.

However.

Just for a moment.

Then he gritted his teeth and raised his head fiercely again: "Rebellion! Rebellious! Are you going to rebel, you traitor!?"

"I worked hard to raise you. In your eyes, am I not as good as Ying Zheng!?"

Cheng 𫊸 lowered his head.

Feeling the angry looks cast by Han Ji.

Quietly kneeling on the ground: "Does mother really think that Cheng 𫊸 really doesn't know what mother and grandmother did to Brother Wang in private?"

"No, Cheng 𫊸 actually knows it!"

"However, after Brother Wang succeeded to the throne, he repaid evil with kindness. Not only did he not care about anything, he also treated his grandmother and mother as they were treated. He even directly awarded the title of Lord of Chang'an to Cheng 𫊸."

"Now, my mother is not grateful for Brother Wang's grace, but instead treats him like this. In the future, she wants to be despised by everyone in the world?"

Some words.

What caused Han Ji was silence for a long time.

Wait until a moment later.

The expression on Han Ji's face was no longer gloomy.

Instead.

It is a deeply complex color.

"Cheng𫊸, you have really grown up..."

Han Ji smiled bitterly and just prostrated in front of her.

See the Chang'an Lord of Qin in his prime.

He stroked the latter's face with pity one by one: "It's just my son... Do you really think that your mother wants to fight?"

"It's just that you are a winner. If you don't fight about many things, someone will fight with you... If you don't hit others, someone will hit you."

"If you don't fight... Zhao Ji can fight? Can Lao Ai fight? Can Lu Buwei fight? Can the Ying family fight? If you take a step back, they will advance a few steps. If you give him a foot, they will advance a few feet... …If you don’t fight, they will eat you up until there’s nothing left…”

"In the past, when you were in the palace, your grandmother protected you and kept you safe. However, now that your grandmother has passed away, who in this deep palace can protect us, mother and son!?"

Han Ji's tone was full of seriousness.

Cheng 𫊸, how could he not know what his mother was thinking.

He understands.

Just like his mother said.

In this Xianyang City, in this deep palace.

Once you bear the surname Ying.

many things.

It was already beyond his control.

He doesn't want to fight, he doesn't want to fight.

However.

But there are many people.

Forcing him to fight...

but.

His mother said that this was his fate and there was no escape.

However, it became 𫊸.

But I don’t think so…

this moment.

in his mind.

Suddenly I thought of someone.

If it were him...

Maybe your destiny can really be changed, right?

And at the same time.

Yongdi, Yueyang, Qin Palace.

here.

It was the capital before the Qin Dynasty.

In the past, in the twelfth year of Duke Xianxiao's reign, the capital of Qin moved nine times and settled in Xianyang from Yueyang.

Since then, Xianyang has been the capital of Great Qin for more than a hundred years, and it has never changed at all.

But the palace in Yueyang became deserted.

However, nature will not be abandoned.

Occasionally on hunting trips or cruises, the princes and nobles would still come to the Qin Palace in Yueyang to stay for a while.

Just like the current Queen Mother Zhao Ji of Qin.

several years ago.

Zhao Ji asked Ying Zheng to go to Yueyang to rest for a while on the grounds that Xianyang was boring and boring.

And Ying Zheng naturally had no reason not to agree.

However.

What everyone didn't expect was this.

Zhao Ji has been away for three years.

Except for occasional New Year holidays.

He almost never returned to Xianyang.

On the grounds of self-cultivation, he lived in the Qin Palace in Yueyang for a long time.

And is the real reason really that?

In the Qin Palace at this moment.

As the Queen Mother of Qin.

Now the Empress Dowager Xia Ji is dead.

However, there was no trace of sadness on Zhao Ji's face. Instead, she was filled with incomparable joy and joy: "Okay! Okay! I'm finally dead! I'm finally dead!"

"I have been waiting for so many years, and she is finally dead!"

Zhao Ji is no longer young.

Even after long-term maintenance, there are already traces of time on that face.

She at this moment.

Looking in the direction of Xianyang, his face was full of joy.

Not because of anything else.

It is precisely because Xia Ji, the Queen Mother of Qin, died!

Although Zhao Ji and Xia Ji are mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, their relationship is not harmonious.

even.

If it is not the maintenance of superficial relationship.

The relationship between the two can be described as hatred.

Zhao Ji understands.

Xia Ji had never looked down upon him.

Not because of anything else.

Xia Ji is Korean and comes from a noble family.

And she, Zhao Ji, is from Zhao, but she is just a singer.

Differences in identity.

Differences in philosophy.

Differences in personality.

Let's start from the beginning.

Xia Ji has been in a hostile state since Zhao Ji entered Xianyang.

Xia Ji had ridiculed and suppressed Zhao Ji countless times, both openly and secretly.

And Zhao Ji.

In addition to superficial efforts.

Regarding Xia Ji, she was not hypocritical at all.

She still remembers it to this day.

Xia Ji once made sarcastic remarks about her insults.

so.

This time Xia Ji died.

Not only did Zhao Ji not feel any sentimentality, she was actually happy.

Because Zhao Ji and Xia Ji not only have hatred between them, but they are also the most hostile politically.

Now Xia Ji is dead.

As far as Zhao Ji is concerned.

It's absolutely beneficial without any harm.

"The Queen Mother, Your Majesty will invite the Queen Mother to attend the funeral of the Queen Mother..."

This way.

A man with a tall build, but a delicate and handsome face, with a white face and no beard, bowed slightly.

On the one hand, he slowly rubbed Zhao Ji's shoulders, and on the other hand, he smiled and looked at Zhao Ji on the opposite side of the throne: "I would like to ask the Queen Mother, is it..."

Hear this.

The smile on Zhao Ji's face faded slightly.

Never looked back.

Zi Gu waved his hand: "When you went back to Dezheng'er, you said that the Ai family was unwell. The Ai family did not attend the funeral of the Empress Dowager."

It is clear.

Now in the Qin Palace in Yueyang.

Being able to have such close contact with Zhao Ji.

It couldn't be anyone else.

It was Lao Ai, the current Changxin Hou of Great Qin.

Lao Ai was punished by castration for her crimes in the past.

Later he was able to enter the palace.

He served the Queen Mother Zhao Ji, followed Zhao Ji, and lived in Yongdi all year round.

And then in recent years.

Because Lao Ai was favored by the Empress Dowager Zhao, she was granted the title of Marquis of Changxin and Shanyang as a fief.

The reward is very generous, and everything depends on Lao Ai.

Nowadays, Lao'ai has thousands of domestic slaves, and more than a thousand people have given up their lives for Lao'ai by asking for official posts.

Zhao Ji used her palace, chariots, horses, clothes, gardens, hunting and hunting all for Lao Ai.

No matter how big or small, everything is decided by Lao Ai.

It can be said.

Today's Lao Ai is now Zhao Ji's spokesperson in the court.

With Zhao Ji’s unreserved support.

Today's Lao Ai is in the spotlight.

The power above the court even approached Prime Minister Lu Buwei.

This way.

Hearing Zhao Ji's words, Lao Ai frowned slightly: "The Queen Mother... Xia Ji is the Queen Mother after all. Isn't it a bit too much for the Queen Mother not to attend this funeral..."

However.

Lao Ai hasn't finished speaking yet.

Mention Xia Ji's name.

Zhao Ji, who originally looked happy, stood up straight away.

Turning around, the expression on his face had become extremely ugly: "Then you mentioned that the Ai family is seriously ill and can only stay in bed!"

"In short, whatever you can say, say whatever you can."

"You want the Ai family to participate in Xia Ji's funeral!? You want the Ai family to cry and keep vigil for that woman!?"

Zhao Ji smiled.

Just that smile.

But it was so cold.

And here.

Just for a moment.

While Zhao Ji and Lao Ai were discussing.

Two children, about three years old, were pacing towards Zhao Ji.

On the other hand, a voice called out in a milky voice: "Mother! Queen!"

With these two sounds.

Zhao Ji, who originally had a sharp look on her face, suddenly turned away.

Before the two children arrived.

He just knelt down and hugged both children into his arms.

The coldness on his face had almost dissipated at this moment. ,

Instead.

Full of warm smiles.

That look.

But he treated Ying Zheng exactly the same as when he was young.

If the situation here in Qin Palace is known to outsiders.

Needless to say.

Predictable.

Just a moment.

It would cause huge waves throughout the Qin Dynasty.

Being able to enter the Qin Palace and being so loved by Zhao Ji.

And the appearance is very similar to Zhao Ji.

more importantly.

The ages of these two children...

in this way.

The identities of the two children are already revealed...

While teasing the two children.

Zhao Ji didn't look back, and waved her hand directly: "Most importantly, all matters in the court will be handled by you."

"The Ai family doesn't want to interfere..."

And here.

Lao Ai heard what Zhao Ji said.

Those eyes became brighter and brighter: "According to the Queen Mother's words, what should Chang'an Jun and Han Ji do..."

The words are not finished yet.

Zhao Ji raised her head, her expression became a little ugly again.

After thinking for a moment, he sneered and waved his hand: "Xia Ji is dead, these two are just bereft dogs..."

"Lao Ai, just watch and deal with it."

While talking.

Lao Ai heard what Zhao Ji said.

An excited smile quietly flashed across the corner of his mouth, and he once again raised his hand towards Zhao Jiyi: "Lao Ai, obey the order."

Leave step by step.

Wait until Lao Ai raised her head again.

The corner of his mouth finally couldn't help but reveal an excited smile.

"In this way...my plan will be..."

Lao Ai whispered in a nagging voice.

And what he didn't know was.

at the same time.

Da Qin, in Xianyang Palace.

"Cheng𫊸, I have met Brother Wang..."
