When people were in Qin, they ruled the world

Chapter 98

"Do you know how many people in Xianyang Palace are worthy of the king's orders?" Zhao Gao frowned.

He found that he seemed to think highly of this woman. She was not as smart as he imagined. The so-called smartness was mostly that of a little woman. As for the others?
Forget it, after all, it's a woman, if you can see that kind of vision and pattern, it would be too scary, this is the normal state that women should have.

"You mean?" After Zhao Gao's prompt, Mingzhu seemed to have thought of something.

"What happened to you now is an order from the king, which means that you are still remembered by the king, and the person who can be remembered by the king, can she be an ordinary person?" Zhao Gao saw that Mingzhu could respond so quickly When I came here, I felt relieved a lot, and it was still reliable after all.

"Then the great king?" Mingzhu found that her brain was not enough, and the rules of survival in the palace seemed to be more complicated than she imagined.

It seems that his current miserable situation is still a good thing.

"Your Majesty may have done this on purpose just to sharpen your temper. Your Majesty may have known the truth about what you did before." Zhao Gao said.

"What is it? What do you know?" Mingzhu said with a solemn expression.

"About the fire." Zhao Gao said.

"You know?" Mingzhu asked, feeling a little uneasy in her heart, but she seemed to understand some things.

"It's not difficult to know the truth. Although your plan can be called flawless, you are the one who has no loopholes. When you conspire with another person, the loopholes already exist." Zhao Gao said.

"Did Wanyu leak the news?" Mingzhu's face turned gloomy, as if she had found the reason for her unlucky situation.

"I got some clues from her, and then got a glimpse of some of the truth." Zhao Gao said.

"Where is the king?" Mingzhu asked.

"Where is the king, I don't know how he learned the truth, but it is not because of Miss Wanyu, the king will not leave too much eyes on a court lady." Zhao Gaodao.

"So, I've always been just an idiot who told lies in front of him?" Mingzhu didn't know what to say at this time.

"I would like to give you a piece of advice, don't show off your cleverness in front of the king, especially the cleverness of calculating him, because he is more intelligent than you. In his eyes, your so-called cleverness is just a clumsy show. It can be self-defeating." Zhao Gao said.

"Are you teaching me how to do things?" Mingzhu said angrily.

Are you really that stupid?
"No, what I said was just advice. After all, you still have a chance in the future. If you make the same mistake again, you may really have no chance." Zhao Gao said.

"So, what should I do?" Mingzhu also had to be serious at this time, because she found that the person in front of her was far smarter than herself and knew the owner of the palace better.

"Do nothing and wait for the opportunity to come." Zhao Gao said.

"Do nothing?" Mingzhu was surprised, isn't that too passive.

"Yes, if you don't do anything, what you can do will not have the effect you want in front of the king, and your advantage may not be worth mentioning to him." Zhao Gao analyzed.

"How do you say that?" Pearl asked.

"Your Majesty is very clear about women's side." Zhao Gao said.

"him?"

"At present, there is only one mistress in Xianyang Palace, you should understand the reason." Zhao Gao said.

"Oh, that's true, but, Commander Zhao Zhongche, are you not afraid that the king will know if you come to me?" Mingzhu changed the tone, trying to regain the initiative in this conversation with Zhao Gao.

"Your Majesty may have already known that my chance this time came from Young Envoy Honglian, and Young Envoy Honglian did this because of you. Does Your Majesty know that I have favor with you? It is better to be open and aboveboard than to cover up .” Zhao Gao said.

"Frank and aboveboard? Master Honglian?" Mingzhu pondered.

"What is Honglian doing now?" Mingzhu asked curiously.

"Ms. Honglian?" Zhao Gao's thoughts were distracted by Mingzhu.

······
So, what is the red lotus envoy doing now?In Xianyang Palace.

At some point, Honglian, who only felt that she was in the clouds, slowly recovered from the coma, and only felt that she was a little beast that was about to be served on the table.

"It's really good." Ying Zheng pinched Hong Lian's familiar ear and said.

"Your Majesty?" Honglian murmured unconsciously.

"Gu knows the taste of Honglian, does Honglian want to know Gu's?" Ying Zheng said to Honglian with the power of bewitching.

"Me?" Guren didn't know what to say at this moment.

······
Hong Lian returned to the residence with a dazed expression. In the small room, Duan Murong was squatting in front of the desk and busy with something, as if she was very absorbed in it. The movement of Hong Lian walking into the room failed to attract Duan Murong's attention.

Honglian glanced at the busy Duanmu Rong, her eyes flashed with envy, she was so carefree back then, unlike now, her mood always fluctuates because of one person.

Those damn annoyances.Thinking about it, Hong Lian punched the desk behind Duanmu Rong's buttocks. The movement caused Duanmu Rong to stagger and squat on the ground.

"Sister Honglian is back?" Duanmu Rong said to Honglian, rubbing the tender flesh behind her.

"What are you busy with? I've never seen you so busy these days." Hong Lian glanced at the bamboo slips piled up on the desk. She had only seen piles of bamboo slips like this on Ying Zheng's desk. As for herself ?She has never been an obedient child.

"My master is coming back soon. I have to make up a lot of things quickly. Otherwise, I will be punished again." Duanmu Rong said with a sad face.

The days away from the master are undoubtedly the days of freedom and good days. In the past few months, when Nian Duan was running around, Duan Murong let himself go.

Just, the price?The price is that at this time, she needs to make up all the homework she has left behind.

"You seem to have been lazy for three months. Are you sure you can make up for the missed homework?" Hong Lian looked at the busy Duanmu Rong and felt a kind of confidence from the bottom of her heart.

"It seems impossible." Duanmu Rong said with a bitter face.

"Then you are destined to be punished, so why bother to make up your homework? It's not worth it to make yourself so tired." Honglian said maliciously.

"That seems to make sense." Duanmu Rong hesitated.

She was still young, and obviously she was not Honglian's opponent. For a while, her thinking was completely misleading.

"I have also experienced what you are facing now before. I wanted to make up for my homework quickly, but in fact I couldn't do it at all. Not only did I exhaust myself to death, but I would also be punished in the end. I knew that would be the result. At that time, I I just gave up, and I can still play happily for a few more days." Honglian gave an example.

"This? What Sister Honglian said makes sense. If you make up, you will be punished. If you don't make up, you will be fined. Anyway, you will be punished. I might as well play for a few more days." Duanmu Rong said suddenly, only thinking The cloud that shrouded my heart a few days ago has completely dissipated.

She couldn't help being in a good mood, and the first thing Duanmu Rong felt when she was in a good mood was that she was hungry again.

"Sister Honglian, what about dinner tonight?" Duanmu Rong looked at the empty dining table, feeling a bad premonition welling up in his heart.

"Dinner?" Hong Lian couldn't help but froze when she heard this, she seemed to have forgotten about it.

"Did you forget it?" Duanmu Rong had a bad premonition in his heart.

"That, that..." Guren didn't know how to explain for a while.

When she left Xianyang Palace, her head was still dizzy, and because she was not hungry, she forgot about it for a while.

"Did you steal it?" Duan Murong leaned closer to Hong Lian and asked suspiciously.

"I·····"

Steal?Upon hearing these two words, Hong Lian's face became even more unnatural, because she really ate it, although what she ate and what Duan Murong said did not refer to the same thing at all, but who made Hong Lian feel guilty.

"Did you really steal it?" Duanmu Rong's face changed, and he leaned on Honglian's shoulder, sniffing with his small nose.

"You think it was stolen, but I can already smell it." Duan Murong said with a worried expression.

"What did you smell?" Hong Lian staggered and almost fell, that incident was really embarrassing, if Duanmurong found out, then she would have to walk around Duanmurong in the future.

"I'm not afraid to tell you that I have been in contact with various medicinal herbs under the guidance of my master since I was a child, and the sense of smell is an extremely important means to identify medicinal herbs, so even the slightest trace of breath cannot escape my sense of smell." , You have a strange smell." Duanmu Rong sniffed his nose as he spoke, as if this could increase the persuasiveness of his words.

"You..." Honglian felt even more guilty at this time.

"No, it's not a strange smell, but two strange smells." Duanmu Rong analyzed.

"You?" At this time, Honglian wanted to run away, but her legs were still a little weak.

"Yes, you must have stolen something." Duanmu Rong became more and more sure of her judgment at this time.

Just when Duanmurong's nose reached Honglian's lower abdomen, Honglian finally pulled up a bit of strength and lifted the curious Duanmurong up.

"What are you doing, I've almost found it, I've almost found the source of that inexplicable and strange aroma." Duanmu Rong said dissatisfied.

"You'd better hurry up and make up your homework. If you make up a little bit, you will be fined when you are punished." Hong Lian wanted to slap herself at this moment, why not be so clever, let Duanmurong worry about her schoolwork?
Of course Honglian knew what the two strange smells Duanmurong was talking about were, but it was precisely because she knew that she could never let Duanmurong know the truth. If she was found out, she would really have no face to see Duanmu Rong, it's really embarrassing.

"You didn't say that before." Sure enough, Duanmu Rong's face changed, and there was no way to find the truth at this moment.

"Master Honglian, are you there?" At this moment, a maid's voice came from outside the door.

"I'll go see who it is." Honglian took the opportunity to escape.

"Schoolwork, schoolwork..." Duanmu Rong could only think in bits and pieces at this moment.

"You?" Hong Lian saw the person coming and recognized that it was a maid on duty in the outer hall of Xianyang Palace.

"The young envoy forgot to bring tonight's food, the king sent me to bring these things." The maid said and handed over a food box.

"Your Majesty?" Hong Lian looked at the food box in front of her, her thoughts tumbling for a while, and a warm current flowed in her heart.

Hong Lian, who returned to the room with the food box, put the food box on the dining table, and said confidently to Duanmu Rong, "Let me just say that I didn't steal it. Let's see what it is. I just forgot."

But at this time, Duanmurong obviously didn't have the heart to play with Honglian.
