Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 400 Revenge
  At this moment, Ying Zheng looked at his mother's figure with indifferent eyes, feeling unexpectedly calm.

He had thought he would be excited, indignant if not angry.

Zhao Ji is the most special person in the world to Ying Zheng, and she is the only one.

When he was a boy, his biological father, Ying Yiren, abandoned their mother and son and fled back to Xianyang alone. Moreover, at that time, Qin and Zhao were at war. First there was the Battle of Changping, and then there was the siege of Handan. The mother and son could really say He was just trying to survive, and he was lucky enough to escape with his life.

Although Zhao Ji was not on good terms with Ying Zheng during that time, the two of them depended on each other after all.

In the end, the two of them ended up in the situation they are in today...

The past events passed through his mind like clouds in the sky. Ying Zheng's mood became calmer and calmer, and he said in a calm and normal voice:
  "My mother, Marquis Changxin, Lao Ai, rebelled against superiors and intended to rebel. Now he has been brought to justice."

Behind the curtain, Ying Zheng still couldn't see the figure, but he knew that the other person must be looking at the other person through the curtain just like him.

Zhao Ji didn't speak or move for a long time. After a moment of silence, she asked slowly:
  "Zheng'er, did you kill him?"

Queen Mother Zhao's voice was clear and sweet, and it did not sound like it came from an old woman who was several decades old.

This is true. Speaking of which, Zhao Ji is only in her thirties. She can be loved by Ying Yiren and her natural appearance is extraordinary. In this world, the age of a beautiful girl is always a mystery. Teenagers, twenties, etc. How old are they, in their thirties, not much different.

"Not yet." Ying Zheng's figure remained the same as behind the curtain, not moving at all. He didn't care at all that Zhao Ji was concerned about Lao Ai's life and death when he came up. He moved his lips and answered softly, "When he returns to Xianyang and is handed over to Tingwei for trial, he will The canonical punishment will be revealed."

The official punishment is death, and a miserable death.

Since Lao Ai failed, Zhao Ji knew very well what would happen to him. She did not react excessively to Ying Zheng's answer. The figure behind the curtain only twisted slightly, probably changing his posture.

"Since he is a traitor, Zheng'er, you can deal with it yourself. There is no need to report it to me."

Zhao Ji's words seemed to indicate that she wanted to turn over this article directly, put aside her relationship with Lao Ai, and continue to be her Queen Mother of Qin.

However, Ying Zheng had no intention of making peace with her and said bluntly:
  "Mother, I am not here to report to you about Lao Ai's rebellion, but I have some questions to ask."

"..." Regarding Ying Zheng's desire to ask questions, Zhao Ji said nothing and did not let him ask, but she also did not tell him to leave directly.

Seeing this, Ying Zheng asked, minding his own business, "Lao Ai's rebellion not only mobilized the local army of Yongdi generation to surround Qinian Palace, but he also mobilized all the garrisons from Hexi, Hedong and Taiyuan to attack the capital of Xianyang." .”

"I want to know how he mobilized these troops?"

"Haha." Zhao Ji chuckled twice and replied in a lazy and feeble voice, "Of course we rely on the Tiger Talisman to mobilize our troops and generals."

"Lao Ai does not have the Tiger Talisman of the Three Armies in her hand, so I will come to ask you, Queen Mother."

"Since there is no tiger talisman, only Zheng'er, your Wang Xi, and my Hou Xi can mobilize the army." Zhao Ji's tone remained the same, and she replied calmly, "You should know these very well, so why bother asking me? ?”

"Mother, you should understand why I came to ask you." Ying Zheng's words did not contain any anger, they were calm but dangerous.

"How do you want me to answer you?" Zhao Ji asked after hearing this.

"I will believe whatever my mother says."

Ying Zheng's words seemed to give Zhao Ji a way to survive. It seemed that as long as she deliberately distanced herself from Lao Ai and denied the matter, she would be able to ignore it and not mention it.

In fact, it is of no use. Zhao Ji’s biggest problem was not that she handed over Hou Xi and Wang Xi to Lao Ai privately, but the two Lao Ai children she gave birth to.

Lao Ai rebelled, and many Qin court officials were vassalized under him, including many high-ranking and powerful people. The reason why they chose him was because of the face of the Queen Mother Zhao Ji and the two children.

With Lao Ai's uprising, this matter was destined to spread all over the world. Moreover, in order to completely bring down Lu Buwei, Ying Zheng had no intention of stopping the spread of this matter.

This one thing alone is enough to destroy Zhao Ji. Other things she can ignore are just small problems and insignificant in comparison.

"Hahahaha!" In response to Ying Zheng's answer, Zhao Ji suddenly laughed a few times, and the figure behind the curtain couldn't help but tremble and sway.

Ying Zheng couldn't grasp the thoughts of his mother now, so he just stared at her figure quietly, waiting silently for her reply.

"Lao Ai was able to mobilize his troops because of the seals of King Qin and the seals of the Queen Mother that I gave him." Zhao Ji's voice began to become a little excited, and there was a faint hint of puzzling... pleasure?
  "Mother, is this... admitting it?" In response to Zhao Ji's self-destruction without hesitation, Ying Zheng remained calm, pursed his lips, and asked flatly to confirm.

"Yes." Zhao Ji regained some composure and nodded.

"Not just this matter, I admit the personal relationship between me and Lu Buwei, the personal relationship between me and Lao Ai, including the two children between me and Lao Ai." Zhao Ji said all of her All the things that have been pointed out have been revealed, revealed, and explained thoroughly.

"I know." Ying Zheng nodded slightly, his eyes looking at the figure on the curtain became more complicated and elusive, and after a moment he asked again, "Then...mother, why?"

This issue is the most important and only reason why Ying Zheng hurried back to Yongcheng and came to see Zhao Ji alone.

"..." Zhao Ji remained silent for a long time, without saying a word or making any move.

Ying Zheng's eyes flashed with disappointment. He didn't try to ask again and turned around to leave. "Since the Queen Mother has nothing to say, I will leave."

After Ying Zheng took a few steps outside, Zhao Ji spoke out:
  "I'm out for revenge!"

At this time, her voice was filled with indescribable joy and resentment.

Ying Zheng stopped walking, but did not turn around. He just turned his back and listened.

revenge? Revenge against whom?

Doubts flashed through his mind, but Ying Zheng didn't ask. He just waited for Zhao Ji to speak on his own.

"I hate your father, Ying Yiren, and I hate Lu Buwei!"

"Back then, the two of them secretly fled back to the Qin State, leaving me, a woman, to take you with them, to stay in the Zhao State, in the Zhao State, which is sworn in with the Qin State!"

"Ying Yiren sees me as a dispensable plaything, and Lu Buwei sees me as a commodity that can be traded at will."

"I hate them! So I want to take revenge on them!" Zhao Ji's voice became more and more crazy, and her figure was shaking violently, dancing and expressing her true feelings.

"Lu Buwei wants to have power over the world and be famous throughout the ages. Then I will let him prostitute himself in the harem, and then I will ruin his reputation and remain infamy for the rest of his life, and his power will disappear!"

"Ying Yiren values ​​the throne, so I will support Lao Ai and let his child ascend the throne of Qin!"

"It's a pity that he didn't live up to expectations and failed."
